Good Intent and cargo were put up at
auction for the benefit of the under

the queer voyage of the ship. She was
from China and Japan, laden with
teas. silks and fancy goods, and, being
blown to the south among the islands
by typhoOn, she had struck on
reef off one of the Necker islands. The
shock dismasted her, and she was
breaking up when her crew took to the

How the Fourth Was Observed.

The glorious Fourth was celebrated
with the usual display of oratOry, red
fire and military pomp. The star
spangled banner waved in some new
latitudes, greeting the morning breeze
in the Klondike and tropics. On for
eign lands there was DO heartier dem
onstration then in England and it
might have appeared to a visitor in
London that the cross of St. George
was only a quartering upon the field
of Old Glory.
The orator reveled in trope and met
aphor, seeking to discount in glowing
speech the efforts of the benignant
sun, and the pyrotecnics of the small
boy. But most of what he said was
truth, since it is difficult, when, speak
ing of American achievements, to ex-
aggerate. There are three great world
powers to-day, and we are probably
justified in putting ourselves first.
Despite the efforts of certain dis
gruntled fault-fnders at home, the
world at large looks upon America as
a great tsconservator of peace. This has
been shown in every international
complication during the last few years
1t is no paradox to say that we love
peace so mnch that, if necessary, We
will fight for it.

There was prophet and seer some
years ago who undertook to tell how
many students would enter Yale Uni
versity by the spots on the sun. The
spots indicated state of the weather,
the weather meant much to agriculture

We do not have to look at the sun for
