forces Of England. While 1t seems to
be true that the British with view,
doubtless, to render our pos ton harder)
made some important surrenders TO the
rebels in the absence Of our forces, yet
all was due to the intervention Of France,
and 1t was an act of treachery to deny
her sovereignty. In fact, IL has always
existed by virtue Of the discoveries of
Cartier.
But, in addition the interests OF hu.
manity required that we take possession
and guarantee to the ignorant and dis
orderly population, so long in chronic
state of rebellion, the blessings Of a
stable government. They are a widely
separated, dissimilar and discordant
community, few Of which could govern
themselves under any circumstances,
and an independent nation composed Of
such elements is an Ethiopian dream.
II left to themselves they would degener-
ate to the condition Of the aborigines,
but they will doubtless fall prey to
some nation not possessed Of the fantas-
tic notions of honor which seem to in-
spire NJ. de Vergennes.
No wonder there was doubt OF the
genuinenes Of this letter, for 1t certainly
brings home in an almost ludicrous way
some of the arguments which lot Of us
have been making against the possibility
of Filipino independence.

place of residence and the date and
place OF marriage, which instrument
must be acknowledged like deed and
filed in the proper office within six
months
The introducer OF the bill defended 1t
chiefly as a measure intended to protect
wealthy bachelors. while living against
the matchmaking devices OF adventuresses
and to guard their estates against simi
lar attacks after they have died. 1t is
also defended as a protection to women
who may suppose themselves to be mar
ried according to the common law, but
find they are mistaken. incidentally
there may be rome relief from the dan
gers 10 real estate titles from claims oi
dower-right ON the part Of common
law wives" which in such city MS New
York are serious matter. Probably
even in New York there are few women
even among the most ignorant classes,
who do not regard religious sanction as
essential to marriage, 30 that the re-
quirement of written contract is not
likely to work injustce.-Exchange.
John Chinaman and the Telephone.
In circumstances where the telegraph
is debarred from direct conveyance of
wordsymbols, the telephone enters with
peculiar value. Until Professor Bell
perfected this invention a Chinaman was
denied by the structure of his language
any immediate transmission OF it by
electricity. Chinese has no alphabet,
and its written signs are so numerous
and intricate as to defy reduction to n
simple telegraphic code. Two methods
proffered themselves; first, 10 translate a
Chinese message into an alphabetical
tongue, telegraph this, and at the re-
ceiving.station run the risk Of error in
retranslating into Chinese. Or, in the
original Morse method, giving u num-
ber to each word in a dictionary, and
tclcgraphing numerals, TO be matched
as received with their appropriate
signihcatign.
With the telephone all this hazard
and trouble vanish at once. A China
man speaks his message; it is received
exactly as spoken, either by his COZ
respondent or his correspondents scribe.
Mr.. Louis Glass, Of the Pacific Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company, San
francisco, states that his company has
a substation in San Francisco employ
ing three Chinese attendants. "Their
ejaculatory language gives peculiarly
god telephonic results. The Chinese
doa very large long.distance business
throughout the whole Pacific coast,
and apparently with more satisfactory
results than English.speaking sub

Blow TO English Prestige.
The Boosman for April.

The Bootman for April:
The truth is that England's military
prestige cannot possibly be won back by
any victories that she may gain over the
South African Republics. Even If every
Boer should finally be hunted down aud
killed, there would be nothing in this to
show England 10 be worthy OF her old
position as first-class military power
This place she will not recover until her
war office shall have been thoroughly
reorganized in thoroughly modern
way, and o haps not until she has sue
cessfully faced in battle one OF the great
er powers. That England should be
strong is for our interest as we'll as for
her own for in the long RON those in
teresis are identical and the danger is
that the British people may 20 exagger'
ate such successes as they win from the
Boer Republics as 10 make the blundere
and the incapacity which marked the
beginning OF the present war seem an
cient history, instead Of grim and grisly
warnings, whose lessons II Is impossible
for Englisnmen to learn too soon.

Rough Rider Givens Killed at
 TuTquOis

The coroners jury in the case Of C F Givens the Rough Rider who was Killed by Herman Dursud at Tur- quo'-, returned & verdict of "dca:h Ly gun,hlt wound. at the hands of Herman Dursnd." The testimony before the jlry was to the effect that Givens, who had been drinking, Lad become abusive and qIarrelsome in the saloon and provoked fight with tic saloon keeper, also with a number of people in the saloon includi-g Da- rand. The trouble with the latter however h d evidently been patched uP, the two taking friendly drink. Givens was tinsliy put out by the seloonkeeper and in a rage h. stated he would get his rifle and clean out the place. Givens shortly returned with sr;fi,. Dursnd was just gong out of the saloon when Givens sudden lv appeared and with an oath saij he would began on him, sui:ing which he fired c shot, the ball passing near Dursnd'. head. Dursnd then pulled his six shooter aud fired three shots one Of which passed through Giyen's body and the two others grazing the thigh and leg. Giyens died imme l. lately after. The with, sses to the shooting all testified that G:veas fir ed the irst shot.
 Several Of the oo!one-s ju-y refused 10 exon. rate Du:spd because they be lie, ed tho bullet that killed Giysns had entered the back. This contention Is regarded ss an impossible Hypothesis by those who examined the blGs and position Of the men at time of shoIt. ing. Dur.nd was on two feet higher ground than Siyens and the shot en- tered the breast with 6 dow Iwa-i range, its exit at the sH. .sll Of the back. Tohave fired the sho: from the bsck and range upward. it Is argued was im possible from the ps.itio.. oi th ? men. sheress the grazei .hots on the thi !h and ieg Of the deal man also ,howed a downward course.
 This afternoon Dursud wa etsmin- ed before Justice Shu.:er. The evil dcnce was substantially as above. Alter ,h' testimony was heard Dis tricr Attorney Land moved that ths prisoner be discharged, a clear case of cell defense having been sbown. The order was made and Dursnd was di-chsrged.
