Rats on Ironclads.

Confronted with the difficulties which
modern builders and housel1olders put
in the way Of rats in drains, floors and
skirtings, the black rat would probably
be baff1ed, while the sagacious gray
rat still remains more or less master
OF the Situate The case of the rat is
typical of the value of brain power.
Routine. which is the usual condition of
animal existence. does not exist for
them. They have to face s'reconstrue-
tions" of their common surroundings at
any given moment and their resources
and adaptability have seldom been
found wanting.
Ship rats have survived the era of
steam and steel. and only recently
thrived so successfully in a big ironclad
that they made her najesty's ship Co.
lossus almost uninhabitable. House
rats have learned how to cope with gas
fittings, lead pipes, brick drains and ce-
ment floors; sewer rats have made
themselves name coeva1 with modern
urban sanitation. and others are now
learning to live in cold stores and
eat chilled meat and game in an atmo-
sphere where breath turns into snow

Where the Brass Band Was.

A Margate Snowman once advertised
outside his 'gaff" the following notice:
Come and See the Musical Dog. Ad-
mission I'd" A good many people, at
tracted by the title, paid the sum re-
quired and entered the tent, where a
big dog, wearing a huge metal collar,
was crouching in corner
After waiting awhile the audience
called the Snowman and asked that
the performance might begin. The
Snowman seemed very much surprised
at their request, and exclaimed as he
edged toward the door:
why. there's the musical dog!''-
pointed to the mastiff. Cant you see
the brass band round his neck?"

A Triaing Defect. After All.

At certain fashionable drawing
room party a gentleman was struck by
the SURPRISING beauty Of one of the lady
guests. but observed with intense re-
greet that she had an awful impeachment
in her speech.
During the course of the evening
they happened to be alone together
when the gentleman asked sympathet-
ically:
DO you always stutter?"
"O-o-only when t-t-talk," was the
reassuring reply.

Too Exasperating.

A crusty old gentleman went down
the cellar steps the other day to draw
his customary mug of ale, accompan-
led by many and particular instruc-
lions from his wife to be very cautious.
as the mug was valuable.
AT the bottom Of the fight he Stun
bled over box of empty bottles, and
fell with tremendous crash, which
was accompanied by scolding voice
from above:
Have you broken that mug, you
clumsy fellow?"
Smarting with pain, and exasperated
beyond endurance, he yelled:
mo; but l Will" And he dashed it
to thousand pieces against the wall.

WHAT ENGLAND THINKS.
the War IN the Phil.
iPpines.

LONDON, March 27.-The Philippine cam
pAisn Of late had rather lost interest for
British readers. but to-day there is an en-
tire change. All the dispatches are print
cd prominently and at length. Most Of the
papers contain editorials expressing admi-
ration for the bravery OF the American
troops and sympathy with them in the
diGAculties they have encountered. The
general opinion Is that the American vic
tories are not conclusive. since the Fill
pinos have not yet learned the lesson OF
the hopeiessness OF resisting the United
States.
The Standard says:
THE Americans are fighting the rebels
with . dash and yigor that are In parked
contrast to the faltering blows aimed at
them by the Spanish generals. Englishmen
Will read with sympathy OF the successive
charges of the American infantry across
the open in the face OF heavy fire. Work
such as this has had to be done time with
out number IN the course OF our oEn em-
pire-making."
The Daily Telegraph says;
IAN the accounts show that the Ameri-
cans will have TO bear their full share of
the white mans burden. The experience
the United States 10 gathering to-day is
that Of every power which has sought to
found an empire beyond Its own shores"
The Daily News:
sThe ultimate result can hardly be doubt
Cd. but strategically Manila II still threat
The Daily Chronicle says: "An America
has to guard against Is guerrilla warfare.
and the only way 10 do that Is to drive
