our PHILIPPINES POLICY.

In the proclamation issued at Manila
by the Philippine Commission. the policy
of the administration with regard TO the
government Of the Filipinos 10 definitely
indicated.
II is proposed to establish in those is
lands . permanent American control
"under which," to quote the words OF
the proclamation itself. "the Philippine
people may enjoy the largest measure OF
home rule and the amplest liberty conso'
nsnt with the supreme ends Of the Gov
eminent and compatible with those obi
cations which the United States have
assumed towards the civilized nations OF
the world" In the establishment and
maintenance Of this government sit will
be the policy Of the United States 10 con-
suit the views and wishes and to secure
the advice, cooperation and aid Of the
Philippine people themselves"
The Sc. Louis Republican says this
authoritative announcement of the ad-
ministration's policy brings the United
States face to face with one Of the grav-
est problems yet encountered in national
history. II seems to say .peremptorily
chat the Government will permanently
hold and occupy these possessions in the
Far East. with all the possibilitiesof inter
national complication in the future def
nitsly accepted. II involves the franz
ing and Inauguration of Q colonial policy
fundamentally ct variance with American
institutions as heretofore understood. 1t
largely repudiates the Monroe Doctrine,
under which this country has in the past
logically forbidden European interfer-
enoe in affairs of the Western Hemis-
phere. II opens up . new vista OF par
t~ioipation in world politics, the ultimate
results Of which may NOT yet be clearly
foreseen.

Catching nIrd. with whisky.

Large birds, such AS the wood pigeons
or ployer, which generally keep to the
open fields and always at respectful
distance from any object that could
conceal q man-are secured by Irish
trappers, Notwithstanding all their
sharpness. Such birds are market
able" aud consequently worth the little
money which is spent IN materials for
their capture. Accordingly, Pat invests
in "A couple of bottles Of whisky, In
which he sleeps as much wheat as he re-
quires for about l2 hours. This wheat
he sprinkles thickly over that part Of
the field which the birds frequent. He
knows TO the hour what time they are
due. and patiently awaits their arrival,
hidden behind the hedge. When they
do arrive ne gives them about rs min
utes to gobble up the whisky-sodden
grain, and then boldly walks toward
them. On his approach, there is a gen
eral rise, but some of the younger birds
remain fluttering on the ground and
are soon captured.-Stray Stories.

TRAGEDY OF MONT BLANC
One of the CaIamities That Frequent
~ Visit the Famous
Mountain-

The story OF the destruction of the
baths OF ST. Gervais. at the foot OF Mont
Blanc, in 1899, is told in ''The Annals OF
Mont Blanc" This was one of the ca
lamities that scarcely could have been
predicted or averted.
Owing to the stoppage Of the sub
glacial drainage, In some way never as
certained, a lake was formed under the
Tete Rouse glacier, In which an enor-
nous body of water was pent up at a
spot 10000 feet above the sea level. Be
tween one and two o'clock on the night
Of July ~, 1892. the ice that had held
the lake gave way.
The water swept In a torrent OF ire
mendous force over the Desert de Pierre
Ronde, gathering up thousands Of tons
of rock and stones in its course. II
passed with a terrific roar under the
hamlet of BiOnnassay, which IL did not
injure, destroyed half the village of
Bionnay, on the highroad between Con-
tamines and St. Geryais, and, tearing up
trees as il vent along, Joined the main
river OF the Bon-Nant.
roiioNlhR Aht river beu, hnu destroy
ing o. its way the old Pont du Diable,
II hurled its seething flood OF water,
timber, stones and mud upon the solid
buildings of the 81. Geryais baths and
crushed them into fragments. Then,
crossing the Chamonix road. II spread
itself out in the form Of a hideous fan
over the valley Of the Arve, destroying
part Of the village of lie Fayet in its
way.
Such was the catastrophe OF ST. Ger
yais which claimed over $50 victims.
Utter ruin was everywhere. The once
lovely gardens Of the baths were five or
six feet deep in mud, fine trees had been
snapped like reeds and enormous blocks
Of stone were strewn over the dreary

AN ANCIENT ORDER.
HoW THE SELECT "oRDeR or THE
GARTER'i ORIGINATED,

Instituted in the'7Iiddle of the Fourteenth
Century by Edward III-Tts purpose at
First Only Temporary, But 1t Has Lasted
For Centuries.
The Order of the Garter is the high
est order of knighthood in Great Brit
ain, its members consisting of the SOW
ereign, the Prince of Wales and twen-
ty-dve knights companions, and it is
open, in addition, to such English prin-
ces and foreign soyereigns as may be
chosen, and sometimes to extra COM
panions chosen for special reasons, so
that the whole order usuallynumbers
about so. Formerly the knights compan"
ions were elected by the body itself,
but since the reign of George III. APP
pointments have been made by the SOW
ereign. The order was instituted by
Edward III. about the middle of the
Fourteenth century, but owing to the
early loss of the original records the
date is uncertain. It's purpose has
been supposed to have been at first
only temporary. According to the
common legend, probably fictitious,
King Edward II. picked up garter
dropped by the Countess of Salisbury
at ball, and placed it upon his own
knee, with the words to his eourtiers,
in response to the notice taken of the
incident, Honi soft qui NAL y pense
ashamed be he who thinks evil of IT'D
To this incident the foundation, the
name and the motto of the order, are
usually ascribed.
The insignia of the order are the

with gold, and having a gold buckle.

A SPEEDY TRICYCLE..
HENRY FoURNl3R HAS SUCCEEDED IN
MAKING 45 NILES AN HOUR.

The Machine is Light, Easy to Manage ana
Powerful But the speed Is Dangerous
and No One Else Cares to Try It-Future
improvements.
Like the question of reducing to
three days the time 1t takes y cross
the Atlantic, the increase of the biey-
cle's speed to a point where the rider
can travel as speedily and as safely as
on railroad train, is one of the things
that seems bound to be attained. 1t IS
as surely a coming achievement that
awaits US in the future as is the per-
fecting of the machinery of the ocean
greyhound so that the present speed OF
the marine flyers can be doubled. In
TIE days when bicycles run at a speed
OF forty-f1ve miles an hour clear track
will be absolutely necessary, SO that
with locomotive engine pace will have
to come a special track for the wheel
men, desirable Improvement that VIII
be welcomed by all lovers of the wheel.
The attainment of the speed named by
the bicycle seems to be in the hands
of Henri Fourier, who has become
known as the king of Automobiles.
What Fournier does not know about
the petro cum tricycle. may as well DO
omitted from the wheelman's educa-
ton.
At present he uses the petroleum tri-
cycle of the Dion-Bouton kind, with a
IL horse power machine, averaging
forty. Kilometres an hour. The machine
is comparatively light, easy of manip-
ulation and powerful. 1t is fitted with
a motor of from one to three horse
power, its hill climbing and speed ca
pabiIities being geeged thereby. :
