The little darkey jumped down from

thing into the bag. Then, being told to
go, he went as far as the door. and hes

from one foot to the other. but holding

burg and were pushed to the front wherever
particularly dangerous service required;
and London and the empire are rejoicing
the relief OF Mafeking as the most brilliant cpl
sode of the war; and that has been the crown
ing glory Of colonial arms, for both rhe garrf-
son under General Baden-Poweu and the rough
riders under Colonel Mahon were recruited out
side England.
Lord Rosebery has warned EngIishmen many
times during the last twelve years that Imperial
unity could never be brought about without
some sacrifice and that they must be prepared
TO diminish their own insular initiative and free
dom Of action in favor of the colonies. The
sacrifice has been made already in South Africa,
where the colonial forces have been admitted
terms OF equality to close association in the
responsibilities and glories Of the campaign The
excIusiveness Of British pride has been sacri-
feed, and patriotism has been enlarged from an
insular into an Imperial virtue. The debates
over the Australian Commonwealth bill have in
volved another act of seIf-efacement Mr.
Chamberlain held out for a time on several tech
meal points against the Australian delegates
but public opinion in England and in the empire
was too powerful to be thwarted. He spoke on
Monday Of a compromise which had been eff
fected on the subject Of the High Court of APP
peal; but in reality he had abandoned his ground
and accepted the principle of Australian inter-
probation of the Australian Constitution, with
the reservations in favor of Imperial and colonial
interests which the colonies themselves had
made. A definition had been dropped and the
principle Of appeal expressed in a negative way
had been changed in phrasing' into a positive
form but Mr.. Chamberlain. after whipping
thistles with great energy for several weeks,
had finally been disarmed. and Australia had
been allowed TO have her own will. The Aus
trauan rough riders and bushmen had cleared
the way for the Commonwealth bill.
If coIonists have been admitted to a larger
share in the conduct of the costliest British war
Of the century and if the Australian people have
been allowed to place their own limitation upon
the right Of appeal TO the Privy Council it is be-
cause insular ideas of patriotism and policy
have disappeared during the battle for the
pire, and when the war has ended Imperial Fed
Grafton will have ceased TO be either Chi
mericaI dream or an impossible problem like
the squaring Of the circle. II will be the
most natural thing in the world for dele
gates representing all the colonies and self
governing dependencies to hold conferences in
London respecting the conditions of military
and naval defence and Imperial representation
in the Prlvy Council and in Parliament. IF these
conferences have been failures in the past. 1t has
been from lack Of faith and interest in them
both here and in the colonies. Pablo opinion
will be behind them in the future, and that will
be an earnest Of success A united nation and a
united empire dreaming with their eyes
wide open, and Imperial Federation is one Of
the certainties Of the future. L n. T.

Paris May u.
Two very important pavilions-the Social
Economy Palace and the City of Paris Pavilion

quantity pretty embIage of imitation ancient
houses. it is not in the Exposition proper but is
classed among the extraneous amusements due
to private enterprise for which extra fee
has to be paid for admission.
A wooden foOtbridge leads across the Alma
Bridge opening at the corner Of which stands
the Palace of Social Economy. This will proba-

Of Congresses, for here will be held some
100 congresses between May % and Octo-

every subject in the social economy of nations.
Here, for instance. are a few: Accidents Caused
by Work. Social Assurance" The Rational
Feeding of Cattle The Americanists, Public
Aid and Private Charity for Bettertng the Lot of
the Blind" Public Credit" Social Education

BIG ATTENDANCE EXPECTED
IN 1889 more than twenty thousand persons
We're present at the sixty nine congresses which
took place. The attendance this year will prob
ably far outstrip all former numbers. for brief
glance at the list of fixtures shows that every
branch of human knowledge will be treated by
the most eminent world famed professors. For
those who look upon expostions in their true
light as educational means. these congresses
will certainly form the chief attraction Of 1900

The building itself calls for no comment archi-
tecturaIly. Its interior contains large vesti-
bule 32S feet by 40 feet, leading to the chief
hall capable Of seating thousand persons.
Four smaller halls will accommodate together
