AS the highest officer in The army
Gen. Miles has not maintained Its
best traditions, nor are the unpleas-
ant incidents in which he is involved
entirely the result of the shortcom-
ings of others. He has been un-
guarded in what he said and the
manner of saying it to surprising
degree, and, on the whole, irascible
and aggressive in his treatment of Of
ficers he dislikes. The country has
not been able to see that Gen. Miles
deserved the further promotion
sought at the beginning of the war
nor any occasion for 1t now.
Turbulent quarrels are poor sub
stitute for successful campaigns. 1t
would have been enough for Gen.
Miles to testify that he believed Ger
tain beef furnished the army was
bad. He preferred the contemptu-
ous phase ''em balmed beef" and
other Instances might be given of a
sensational tendency. It is TO be
hoped that the next ranking officer
of the army will be man of more
poise and broader qualitles.-Globe

that New York is going to be repre-

man who will renew some of the ira

Depew will be the equal Of any man
who has served IN the senate in re-

NEW SLAVERY AT CAPE TOWN.
Bechuana Prisoners Are Bought By
the Farmers.

Bechuan9 Prisoners Are BOuGht DY
the Farmers.
The "slaye mart judging from an
article in the Cape Times, appears to
be definitely established in Cape Town,
says the London Chronicle. The slaves,
Of course, are the Bechuana prisoners,
and although there is no suggestion
that these wretched reatures are treat
ed with harshness while in the gov
ernment care, they are clearly censid-
cred and disposed of precisely as if
they were mere bales of goods or cat
tie. Careful watch and ward is kept
over them and the writer says that
sit is not easy to pass the strict guard
at the gate unless you are farmer
coming to pick your labor.
Round three sides of the square court
yard men and,women are squatting inn
passive1y or standing chattering in
knots. They are ill-clad and exceeding
" ill-favored, but not ill-nourished, like
the first batch of skeletons that came
1own to town. A child here and there
even bonny. There is no very obvi-
ous detection. The nearest to it is n
moody, passive look"
The farmers, too, quite enter into
the spirit of the 'slave mart" They go
round the market scanning the men.
and sorting out those of the largest
size" as did the walrus and the car
penter with the oysters. The natives
cast expressionless, sidelong glances at
their possible masters while they are
being appraised like goods in a store.
Having selected one or two from a
group, the farmer is chagrined at be-
ing told by harried official: "Wec can
not break this lot for you," as if the
knot of negroes were dinner service
or suite of bedroom furniture. Back
goes the farmer and looks the natives
up and down again, and at length de-
cides ''to take the lot" When the ma
tives are duly indentured for five years
their master unhitches his cart and
mules, outside, bundles his labor in
and drives his bargain home.

Lutherans, Method1sts and Presby-
terians run an even race in this clas-
sification, while in the next lower
scale come the Raptists, Christian

The presentment is novel one, but
its study reveals nothing new.

THE BULLDOG A GOOD DOG.
Yet We Do Not Care to Take Liber-
ties with One.

Yet We Do Not Care to Take Liber-
ties with One.
No member of the canine family has
been more persistently mahgned than
the bulldog. Writers who have no init
mate knowledge of the dog and his at
tributes have described him as stupidity
ferocious, and illustrators have pic
tured him as sort of semi-wild beast,
til the general public has come. to look
upon him as dangerous, says Outing.
''Give dog 81 bad name,' is an old
saw and perhaps q true one, but when it
is applied to the bulldog, it is manifest
ly unjust. Writers, too, have fallen into
grave error. in claiming that the bull
dog is deficient not only in affection, but
in intelligence.
No greater proof of the faIsity of the
latter could be given than was wit
messed at the late Westminster Ken
mel clubs dog show, when Col. Shuts
exhibited his trained dogs, with the
bulldog Nick performing all sorts of
wonderful feats, especially that of
walking a tight rope, and, when in the
center of it, turning round and retrac-
ing his steps, amid the applause of an
admiring audience.
Stonehenge, who is considered one of
the greatest of canine scientists, claims
that the bulldogs brain is relatively
larger than that of the spaniel, which
dog is generally considered to be the
most intelligent of the canine race,
while the bulldogs affection is never to
be doubted.
