Uncle sam as n Ynchtsman.

Mr.. Mckinley has conferred a substantial
benefit upon the country in his nomination
of the yacht broker Hazel, to the United
states district bench. If this distinguished
name had never been sent to the Senate it
is doubtful if the transport scandals Of the
Spanish war would have been adequately
aired before the Presidential election. As
it is. HazeTs connection with the sale OF
the yacht Enquirer 10 the Government has
served the pioUs purpose of digging up the
whole matter. and the country is likely -
receive much illumination in consequence
between now and next autumn.
The press here and there is beginning to
take an active ane intelligent interest in
the subject The Buffalo Express today
devotes FIVE columns Of news space and a
stirring editorial to the achievements OF its
famous townsman and TO the brokers and
politicians generally who enriched them
selves out OF the eighteen million dollars
spent by the Navy Department. and an
unascertained but liberal sum expended
by the War Department for second hand
yachts. tugs. tanks. and tubs. The "Ex-
press" calls attention to the fact that one
of these boats, bought from ]. Pierpont
Morgan, cost the Government two hundred
and twenty-five thousand dollars II rather
seems to insinuate that this amount was
perhaps a hundred thousand more than the
yacht had cost the seller. But we do not
fancy that Morgan reaped any such harvest
1t would edify US to know what he really
did get and whO absorbed the remainder.
Similarly. Hanna's brother had pleasure
vessel up on the lakes called the Comanche.
1t is reported that the nation paid him
one hundred and fifteen thousand dollars
for this craft. 1t is also limited that the
price was anywhere from sixty to seventy
five thousand dollars above cost; certainly
the first figure above market value.
Congress should not fail to press for
most careful statement in detail of the
| distribution and destination Of that fifty
million dollar emergency fund. If the full
truth were known there would be sensa-
/ tionaI reading in the testimony which
might be taken before a committee.

GIANT TURTLES SCARCE.
Few of the Southern Pacific Big Rep
Hes SurNiNe.

(From the New YORK Herald)
The surviving giant turtles of the early
tertiary period. the remnant of the huge
beasts that rcan.ed the earth ages before
mammals were known, have almost disaP-
peared from the southern Pacific, where
they existed in great numbers early in
the present century
II have assisted in the capture Of many
of these great turtles said Capt Walker
w Baxter, now in New York on his way
from London to his New Zealand home.
"on the Chatham Islands, where they were
once so plentiful. but they are now going
the way of your buffalo and Indians. The
Chatham group belongs 10 our New Zea

when the native Morioris were conquered
by the Maoris of New Zealand. The Mo-
rioris were a large tribe in those days.
but were far outnumbered by the giant
turtles that occupied their islands and
were preyed on by them. Now they are
reduced to 100 souls or less all told, and
the turtles are even less numerous; that
is. the big fellows.
''At least 10. COO. 600 of these great tur-
ties have been destroyed in the last 100
years The natives have lived on them,
sailors have carried them of by shiploads.
and the wild black cats that live in the
lava crevices have destroyed them. The
old ones. the giant ones. the mighty ones
that weighed from 500 to 1.000 pounds
each. have disappeared. and their de-
scendants, weighing from ten to twenty
pounds, alone are left, and soon they will
be gone, and their place will mark an
other missing link.
Sixty years ago there was no trouble
in finding a turtle on the Chatham Islands
weighing 500 pounds. and have captured
several that went over 500 pounds. A
year ago l searched for several days and
| the largest one l saw weighed only thirty
two pounds. They live no telling how long
IL they are not killed by man or the black
cats. and they apparently grow as long
as they live. Now they have no oppor-
| tunity to get any considerable growth, and
soon will be known only in books and on

Art in Schools.

Some philanthropie people in New York
are begging the public for money to frame
pictures for the schools. Fifty large un-
fra ed photographs of Niagara Falls have
been given to the Art Committee OF the
Public Education Association for use in
the public schools. The committee wants
one hundred dollars with which to pay
for the frames.
With all due respect to school commit
tees. there is no educational notion that
has been worse abused than this one. The
old-fashioned schoolhouse did not have
pictures. 1t had maps and bIackboards.
and that was all. 1t did not always have
even shades to the windows, which was
bad. because occasionally the eyes of the
pupils we're injured by their being obliged
to study in full glare of sunlight.
The modern school has pictures Of all
sorts OF things-landscapes and flowers,
and people. and animals. Some Of them
are good and some of them are very, very
bad. Many of them are framed more or
less extensively. Sometimes the pupils
look at them carefully, but more often
hey do not. The human mind is wonder

1t is matter Of genuine public interest

most at risk in the premises, that a num-
Der Of leading Republicans IN Kentucky
are demanding of Taylor that, if he wishes
TO be candidate for the Goyernorship. he
shall return and stand trial under the in
dictment charging him as an accessory TO
the murder Of the late Governor GOebeI.
This situation seems to develop the fact
that his party friends at home have con-
siderable confidence in Taylor's innocence
Of the foul charge against him. But it
does not yet appear to what extent he
shares that feeling. We are sorry to say
that. among all the circumstances which
have seemed TO cast suspicion upon the
eminent fugitive from justice, his own &C
tions have told most against him. Tay-
lOr's whole conduct since the assassina-
tion, although it really may have been the
result of conscious innocence. has been
that of man who was not at all con-
WINGED that he was not guilty before, dur

Circulation Statement.
The English Alliance.

The best answer to the Administrations
denial that there is a secret treaty of alii-
ance between England and the United
States is conveyed in Mr.. McKin,ey's
attitude toward the Hay-Paancefcte
Treaty That infamous instrument. as ev-
erybody knows was carefully prepared in
London during Mr.. Hanna's trip abroad
last year, with three definite purposes in
view The first of these was TO give life
and effect to the Clayton-Bulwer Treaty
of 1850.
1t had been long recognized by the Brit
lsh nd American foreign offices that this
agreement had never been actually in
force. owing TO the crime of the negotia-
tor on the part Of the United States, in
conceaIing from the Senate a secret pro
vision which, if known, would have led
TO rejection. Yet the Clayton Bulwer
Treaty furnished and still furnishes the
only color OF obstruction to the building
of an exclusively American inter-Oceanic
canal; hence it was considered necessary
to make it operative The second object
of the Hay Pauncefote Treaty was to dis
establish the Monroe Doctrine in the in
terest Of some joint design which Mr..
Mckinley ano Lord Salisbury have in
view, but which has not yet been confid-
ed to the country. The third was to pro-
mote the purposes Of an American syndi-
cate which had obtained a ground floor op-
ton On the Panama Canal swiEdle.
The position CT Mr.. Hanna. Mr.. McKin-
ley and their New York and Lon
don associates in respect OF these
things. is perfectly well known. There are
10 illusions regarding their views or stake
in the matter. Therefore, it was natural
that. when Senator Morgan gave notice 10

minority in the Senate would attempt to

that they must fight tooth and nail against
so American proposition.
What the result Of the movement and The
campaign against it may be we shall lie
better able to determine tomorrow than
today. In a general sense. the situation is
what it has been for weeks. The twenty
six Democrats in the Senate have it II
their power TO cremate the remains Of Il e

PauncefOte wickedness, and to make the
American canal proposition a success. By

the consent of the addressee. This has

silva AND DEVI.
The Devil of the HindoOs and His
Principal Wife,
From the Westminster Review)

}
silva is both typical of destruction ard II
reproduction. But the latter attribute was
doubtless a later addition TO the sum Of
his qualities The original conception Of
this deity was that of a power deighting
in destruction, In the achievement of physi-
cal evil and wrong. and in hurting death
and devastation upon the people ard their
land. He is represented in the sacIei
books of the Hindoos as "the terrible de-
stroyer, the one who delights in the de-
struction of men" But in all this there
of evil The conception IS entirely one of
physical power, used with the utmost
maIevolence and injustice against men.
Along with his principal wife, who is
variousiy called Devi. Durga, Una, and
Kali. he is portrayed as the incarnation OF
physical evil, wrong. injustice, or misfor-
tune. In the "Puranas'' silva is described
as wandering about surrounded by ghosts
and COLLINS. inebriated, naked, and with
disheyeled hair, covered with the ashes of
a funeral pile, ornamented with human
skulls and bones, sometimes laughing. and
sometimes crying DeYi his ccnsort. Is
represented with a hideous and a terrible
countenance streaming with blood. en-
circled with snakes hung round with skulls
and human heads. and in all respects re-
sembling q fury rather than a goddess
The only pleasure which silva and Devf feel
is when their affairs are drenched with
blood, which. OF course. could not be shed
without the destruction OF some form of
life.
