Paris. May 7.-Although 1t was fully
recognized that the Nationalist intend
ed to make n determined fight in all
the wards of Paris on the occasion Of
the municipal elections held yesterday
throughout France. 1t was never ser-
ously contemplated that their efforts
would be crowned with such success
as is shown by the results, which must
be recognized rs dealing a serious blow
to the Republicans and Radicals.
The results show fifty definite cleo
tioDs in Paris. In thirty wards second
ballots will be necessary. The Nation
alists have gained eight seats. five
from the Republicans and three from
the Radicals. The successful candi-
dates include NJ Gaston-Mery. CALI,
Lcpclletier and Berillier.
The Republicans have secured eight
seats. including seven members of the
old council. the Radicals and Radical
Socialists ten and the Conservatives
eight.
In wards where second ballots are
necessary the Nationalists obtained the
most votes in eleven cases, but the TO-
tal votes polled by their competitors
was higher than the number obtained

personally directed the guerilla opera
tions. and General Funston had spent
weeks in trying to capture him. several
companies beating the whole country
at night. Often the Americans caught
messengers bearing Garcia orders. The
people protected him,and burned signal
lights wherever the American soldiers
appeared. Recently General Funston
surprised him and his staff while din
ing at Araynt at dusk. The Fllipinos
lenped through the windows and es-
capped. leaving their papers and every
thing except the clothing they wore.
The strain of being hunted finally eX-
hnusted their endurance. General
Funston, who came to Manila to bid
farewell to General Otis, will return
and endeavor to persuade Garcia to Sc
cure the surrender of his forces. which
number several thousand.
Jaen is the largest ungarrisoned
town in the province. Spies reported

An eminent physician lately called
attention to the important part wars
have taken in hospital development
He declared that the Crimean war de-
yeloped the trained nurse and the
training school. In the American civil
war medical men learned that small
hospitals, and even hospital tents, are
better than large enclosed structures
for the sick and wounded. To the
knowledge thus gained is due the pa
vilion tent 1t was war. also, 1t ia as
serted, that led. not to the discovery.
but to the introduction of antiseptic
surgery. Medical science will profit
by the conflict now in progress In
South Africa. Through disease and
wounds there treated, benefit will come
to the civilized world. Thus out OF a
great evil may come great good. for
war compels resort to every expedient
to save the lives OF ones own soldiers,
no less than to destroy the lives of
those in the hostile army.

Vet River, May e.-General Pole
Carew started at daybreak yesterday
on a nineteen.mile march. He first
came In contact with Beers holding the
river at o'clock p. m. The British
soon had two batteries In action and
later he added two naval nine-pound-
ers, two Al and five-inch siege guns.
The Beers fired with great accuracy,
and the duel continued unabated, with
a terrible din, until sunset, and even
later there was desultory firing. 1t Is
side was injured.
General Hutton started carly to nno
the drift on the west.
When this was discovered 1t proved
to be strongly held and protected by
two guns. The British speedily en-
gagged the Beers, who enfiladed the
dIsmounted firing line with Maxim,
but General Hutton pushed forward
and forced the Beers to leave the river
bed.
The encounter was terribly hot
Later the whole British force crossed
the river, threatening the Boer right.
The Beers must have received about
the same time news of General Ham
ilton's occupation of Winburg.
About sunset a detachment of twen-
ty-six Australians. who had crept un-
seen toward the river bed, found them
selves near n kopje occupied by the
Beers. After firing they fixed bayo
nets and Charged. capturing the kopje.
All was done on their own initiative.
Thus night fell. Early this morning
1t was discovered that the whole Boer
force had fled.
General Hutton during the night got
two sGuadrons to blow up the line
near Swalsdel.
The British discovered yesterday at
every hundred yards along the railroad
concealed small packets of high explo-
sives. The Beers had destroyed three
bridges over spruits between here and
Brandfort, but in every case it was
possible to make detour.
The Beers appear to be fighting with
much less spirit. 1t is reported that
they are commanded by General Lucas
Meyer.
The bridge over the Vet river is COM
pletely destroyed.
General Hutton captured a Maxim
and took twelve prisoners.

Those who assert that wine growing
countries are largely exempt from the
evils of intemperance need not point
to France in proof of their assertion.
The habitual use of wine often creates
the craving which seeks for such
stronger stimulants as absinthe or
yermuth. OF about three thousand
prisoners in the department of the
Seine, in which Paris is situated, it Is
officially stated, more than two thou
sand were drunkards. The number Of
suicides induced by habits of intem-
perance is said to have more than
doubled in recent years. Alcoholism
is also largely responsible for the fact
that thirty-four per cent of the young
men conscripted for the army are sent
back as unfit.

OUR PAUPER LABOR.

About 5000 women and girls in New
York are employed In making arti-
fetal flowers. All grades are made,
from exact limitations Of the most ex-
quisite French productions to the very
cheapest violets. The branching and
other dificult parts of the work and
some of the finer grades of flowers are
done In the factories, but fully two
thirds of the fower-makers are out
side workers" Most of these home
women are Italian women and chill
dren- Wages range from sI.5o a day,
which the most expert brancher in n
factory earns during the busy season,
to the 40 cents a day which the out
side worker" considers very good.
The fiower-makers work by the piece.
They receive from three cents to a
dollar a gross The cheapest flowers
are the violets, daisies, and wreaths
Of small flowers for children's hats.
The price for a dozen wreaths is 81
cents. Each wreath consists Of thirty
nine flowers, 46S flowers In all. A little
Italian girl who takes this work home,
with the assistance Of her mother. her
sister aged II. and her 9-year-old
brother. can make a dozen Of these
wreaths, 81 cents worth. In two hours.
For the cheapest violets 3 cents is
paid for IA flowers. A mother and her
little daughter. working together make
two gross In an hour. These are facts
and need no comment-Harper's

The comment needed Is, that we had
better change this sad state Of AFFAIRS
before we take such a. civilization to
distant islands and shoot 1t into the

boxes Of seeds which rested on a shelf.
To get rid OF the ants he put into exc
cution an old plan, which was to place

soon covered, deserving the box Of
seeds As soon as the bone became
thickly inhabited by the little creepers
the horist tossed II into q tub Of water.
The ants having been washed on, the
bone was again put In use a. q trap.
The florist bethought himself that he
would save trouble By placing the

caught on the sticky ny paper while
trying to reach the food. But the for
Est was surprised to ind that the ants.
upon discovering the nature Of the

and built . path on the paper clear to

oURFoRmERPLAcEIN SHIPPING

Says the Chicago Chronicles: Our
republican statesmen do not venture
to say a word about shipping bounties
or subsidies, but they bravely declare
for Legislation which win enable us
to recover our former place among the
trade, carrying fleets of the world"
They are after our former place"
In this respect What was our former
placer" What party was in power
when we held it? What is our pres
ent place? How did we get there?
During the three fiscal years i'm
mediately preceding the first republic
an administration-the years ending
June 30, 1S61-American vessels car
ried from 70 to 70 per cent Of all our
exports and from 80 to 81 per cent Of
all our imports and exports combined
In 1862 American vessels carried so
per cent Of the total and in three years
following their share fell below %
per cent.
That We may lay to the civil war.
But after that there was only partial
and temporary recovery, reaching a
maximum of less than 36 per cent in
1870.
Since 1870 there has been a pretty
steady decline, running down to bare
ly IL per cent, from which figure there
has been no recovery. In fact. in 1888
the share Of the American vessels had
shrunk to SO per cent.
Our repuS..can statesmen do not
trouble themselves to call attention to
the fact that all this decline has oc-
CURED under republican administrs-
tons and laws. except that there was
a democratic administration Of repub-
lican laws for a short time.
They are too modest to tell US that.
