A STliRT YANKEE TRICK.

The secret history of the Yanko-
Spanko war will be long time in COM
ing out, but an important part of 1t is
already out. La Patrie, of Paris, is the
enterprising paper that has "scooped"
its esteemed contemporaries and made
a weighty contribution to the world s
stock of accurate knowledge. This pa
per has discovered that from January
to August 1898, Colonel Hay, the Amer
lean ambassador in London, spent more
than $15,000.000 ON the British press. He
opened an unlimited credit at the city of
London branch of a great American
bank; the Spanish ambassador has CIV
en- some valuable informatio which
leaves no doubt on this point" The
money was not paid outright to the
newspapers "The British newspapers,
1t must be admitted, rarely take
money" But all the telegraph news re-
lating to Spanish affairs was monopo-
liked by the agents Of our ambassador,
who furnished 1t free to the entire Brit
ish press. "That explains we are lu-
cidly informed, ''the steady and sys-
tematic hostility toward Spain of all the
false news which has enabled the Amer
leans to deceive the world. Without the
employment of such means the United
States would never have succeeded in
crushing Spain in the face of Europe
instinctively hostile to their expansion
Bribing the British press with free
news, and false news at that, awas GER
tainly very smart Yankee trick. And
the victory was all the greater because
the trick had to contend with SO much
false Spanish news.

The First Rlueblrtl.

A bluebird sat up on the limb of tree
Md sang a sweet sonnet Of spring,
And seemed just as gay as Il b.uebird

Poor little unfortunate thing
1t warbled away In the sunshine so bright
In s.weetly encouraging way,
And thrilled many hearts with exquisite de-
light
AS 1t piped Its clear promising lay.
1t sang of the flowers and fields robed in
green,
OF birds making love in the trees,
OF brook.ets a-sparkle with sllvery sheen,
And the hum of Industrious bees,
1t told us Of skies ever tinted with blue,
OF lovers permitted to bill and to coo
In the shadow of vine-netted bowers.
1t told of fair Flora the queen of the
spring
Who'd sent 1t to say she was near
Who babe 1t come hither and joyfully sing
Ger the grave of old winter so drear.
A maiden who stood at her window and

Build your nest on my window, you sweet
little bird,
And I'll love. you, I'll love you alwayl
"Come sing till you teach me in JOY to for

The lover now truant from me;
His place you shall take In my heart, pref
ty pet,
My one only love you shall be.
Come into my life like a hope beacon bright
And lnger for aye by my side;
Come. cheer me with songs of ecstatic de-
light,
And forever I'll be your sweet BRIDE
Next morn on her easement the birdie lay
dead
With cruel big lump In its throat,
And the painfully wise old pos mortemite
said
1t had choked on hard-frozen note.
Its memry she'll cherish when spring flow

She has made wise provision for that
She'll wear the blue winglets which bore 1t
to doom
On the deck of her new Easter hat,

Economic progress is a part of the

stop it and, if interested in progress,
, cannot afford even to hinder 1t.
Trusts have a right to be. Just as
partnerships consolidated to form cor

against progress and the laws of nature
and their efforts will have about as

When the elevated roads were estab-

An INCORRECT REPORT.

Interest in the election of members of
the Yale corporation increases. A re-
port got into circulation last week that
Colonel N. G. Osborn had decided not
to allow his name to be used if Alfred
L. Ripley, of Boston, was a candidate
This report is decisively contradicted.
Colonel Osborn will not forbid the use
of his name, and his friends and sup
porters who are taking an active inter-
est in the matter will continue their
efforts. We hope they will be success
full. There is no better Yale man than
Colonel Osborn and no candidate is in
sight who more thoroughly under

COMING

One swallow doesn't make a summer,
and one pleasant day doesn't make a
spring. But we needn't become cautious
until we have the pleasant day. The
days we have had lately haven't been
such as to cause us to get too gay about
spring. Somewhere, we suppose, the
bluebirds are rehearsing for their an
nual spring concert in this region, and
the Branford mock turtle Is probably
trying it's voice preparatory to its being
heard in the land. This Is all faith, to
be sure, but faith is the evidence of
things not seen. We shall see the blue
birds, even if we don't the mock turtle.
And what joy it will be to see them
once more, gaily fitting about and Civ
ing their cheerful chirps as they prepare
to get married at high noon, or what
ever the fashionable bluebird- wedding
hour is. Inspiring and comforting lit
tie bird! What a pity that thou must
be slain to adorn the topknot of lovely
and tender-hearted Woman!

NEW HAVEN MORNING COURIER MONDAY MARCH

The Audubon society Of New York Is
seeking the better protection Of the use
full and beautiful birds. Here is an ex-
tract from letter it is circulating, bear
ing the signature of Governor Roose-
welt: Spring would not be spring with
out bird songs, any more than it would
be spring without birds and flowers and
l only wish that, besides protecting the
songsters, the birds Of the grove, the or
chard, the garden and the meadow, we
could also protect the birds of the sea-
shore and Of the wilderness, The loon
ought-tobe and, under wise legislat-
ton, could be, feature of every Ad-
irondack lake; ospreys can be made the
tamest Of the tame, and terms should be
as plentiful along our shores as swal-
lows around our barns. A tanager or a
cardinal makes point of glowing
beauty in the green woods, and the car
dinal among the white SHOWS. When
the bluebirds, were so nearly destroyed
by the severe winter few seasons ago,
the loss was like the loss of an old
friend. How Immensely 1t would add
to our forests if only the great logcock
were still found among them. When
hear of the destruction of a species I
feel just as if all the works of some
great writer had persisted, as If we had
lost all instead of only part Of Polybius
or Livy.

BROTHER CHARLES rs ALL RIGHT.

1t was saddening to read that there
was any member of the Dewey family
that wasn't sensible. And yet we did
read that there was a brother Charles
Dewey who sought to make money out
of the fame of the great admiral. Brother
Charles is in the insurance business in
Vermont and the storyswas that he had
issued some business cards on which the
names OF the brothers were printed in
large type Charles Dewey as president
of a life insurance company and George
Dewey as admiral and victor at Manila,
and the fact of their relationship was
thoroughly proclaimed. 1t was also said
that the card contained this phrase,
admirable Policies and an Admirable
Victory"
1t now appears that such cards really
were printed, but Brother Charles
wasn't the indiscreet cause of them.
They were the work of a fresh and fool

FASHION NOTES.
A New Form of Stays.

Several new sorts of corsets have been
put forward recently. The newest may
be described as a girdle that nips the
waist in a truly terrifying way, 1t is
open at the hips front and back being
connected by several straps Of elastic
ribbon, and the bone extends up to
about the bust line. The bone Is of the
same height in the back, but very flexi-
BILE ribbon Is fitted and shaped to pass
about the body, not restricting it but
keeping it In outline and giving support
to the bust. The corset cover chemise is
dainty affair, being really only cor
set cover with it's length increased. 1t
fits prettily over hips and back, and is
nared below the knee. White skirts are
selling at wonders of price because half
the white petticoat models must be
changed. There will hardly be chance
to wear the regulation white skirt I'M
less it is made overy very carefully to
fit at back and hips without the fullness
that the usual draw string makes. Silk
skirts, too, may be had at what seems to
be tempting bargains, but the very low
priced ones will need to be cut over.

the company, and who says that he had
them printed at his own expense to use
as his business cards. 1t is as much Of
an offense to Charles Dewey as to any
to have the offender properly disciplined
for his ridiculous outbreak.

congratulations to all his relatives so
long as they remain sensible and mod
