Generals of tbe Revelation.

Of the generals of the revolution 1t may be fairly said that their mili- tary ability was, at least, superior to that of their opponents. They never lost an army, while Burgoyne lost his at Saratoga, and Cornwais his at Yorktown Howe gained victories at Long Island, the Brandywine and Germantown, but they were not due to his skill, but to the fact that he commanded regular. trained troops and was opposed by undisciplined Ievies: he escaped defeat at Mon mouth, but this was due to Lees treachery and cowardice. Similarly. CornwaIlis gained victories at Guil- ford and Eutaw Springs, and for the same reasons. But neither Howe nor Cornwallis was ever able to destroy or capture the army opposed to him; and Clinton did not think it prudent to attempt any decisive operations. On the other hand, Washington con stantly showed military ability of the very highest order There is no greater mistake than to call him good man. but second-rate soldier. -Scribner's.

STRANGE FOOD OF AMERICANS
An English Woman Tells Her Coua- srywomen About What She
 Ate While Here.

An English woman who visited Amer lea short time ago has been telling her countrywomen about the strange food across the water" Of course she discovered green corn, but she had been quite prepared for that. Oyster crabs were quite new to her.
 '"They look like Boston baked beans," she explains, "but they taste much bet ter.''
 An oyster cocktail filled her with awe and enthusiasm. She tried it at Del monico's and thought it was soup. Of course, in England, one didn't serve soup in a glass, but then neither did the English serve boiled eggs in a glass. One could never be sure of Americans.
 Of canvas back duck she has poor opinion, but thinks she might like it better if Americans would have it cooked, or even warmed. As for terra pin, she sings it's praise. She found it much like calf's head, and she always liked calf's head. Shades of Mary land gourmets, what slur is there. All the buildings in America are pie or ice cream" she says, but it must be understood that pie does not mean game pie. The Yankee pie is tart and is ubiquitous. she explains.
 She sat next to an American man who ate n lump of cheese with his strawberry pie and turned plateful of ice cream over both, but she doesn't know that that is general custom.
 The oysters were good, but had most impossible names, and the cookies, meaning clans, are excellent. On the whole Yankee food and cooking are good, but there is too much food on the table at one time.

CONCERNING ALASKAN FURS.

In all belts winter fur commands often three times as much as sum- mer fur in price, and in most cases dark-colored fur is worth much more than the lighter varieties.
 London quota tions for furs are fixed twice a year-March and Aug ust-by a board of principal dealers in that city, and prices are gauged according to that scale in all parts of the world except Russia. The present rates, compared with last years prices, show an increase oI bear, beaver, otter and mink, and a wolf and wolverine.
 A wide difference is often noted between the maximum and the min- imum prices of Alaska furs. This is due to variations in the shade and quality of the fur and to the time of the year in which the animal was caught. For instance, belts of bears caught in the spring, just after the hibernating process is over, are the fall because their fur is soft and thick, instead of harsh and thin.
 Dawson is the central market for vast extent of fur-bearing country, stretching from the Mackenzie basin to the coast range and from the Por- cupine to the Hootalinqua. In this area perhaps 1000 men are engaged i'll hunting and trapping, exclusive of the Indians; and from Dawson fully 10000 peltries are annually export ed to the great fur markets of Lon don and New York. The industry yields a revenue every year of nearly S250 o0o

LONE vOYAGERS SEEN.
Captain Andrews and His Bride Are Sighted on the Ocean in Their
 Small Boat

An incoming steamer reports hav- ing, passed the Dark Secret, the lit tie canyas-covered folding-boat in which Capt. William Andrews and his bride started for honeymoon trip across the Atlantic three days ago. The little craft was reported to be making fair headway, though pound ing a good deal owing to lying so low on the water. The Dark Secret is 14 feet in length and sits danger ously deep in the water as the re- suit of the stores which have been packed in every nook of the boat and her 300 pounds of lead ballast.
 Capt. Andrews means to hold his course toward the Azore islands. He expects that with ordinary fair weather he will make them in eight weeks. He counts on the Dark Se- cret making ten miles an hour. He is alone in the belief that she will make that time. Half the speed is what is given her by many author ities owing to the light sails carried and the peculiar build of the Dark Secret. Three or four months may be necessary to make a successful journey.
 Capt. Andrews has achieved much on voyages in small boats. He sailed the dory Nautilus, a 15-foot boat, from Boston to the Paris exposition in 1878. On this trip he was accom- panied by his brother Walter. The voyage lasted 45 days. He was 62 days alone on the ocean in the boat Dark Secret, 15 feet long, in 1888. He sailed 34 days alone in the can vas-covered folding-bSat Phantom Ship, a 131-foot craft, in 1898, and 1000 miles alone in the Dover, a 12- font hoat of the same style in 1892

In his recently published biography of Eleonora Duse, Luigi Rasi notes that although she began her theat- rical career at the age of four, she was not child prodigy and did not attract attention as promising ac- tress" till she was 20. Her father was an obscure actor, and the family was so poor that once, when Eleo- nora's mother was lying in hospi- tai, the hungry child used to go there daily to eat the food which her moth CT was too i'll to take herself.

Once more tile Newton Heights dis frict is flooded with light on dark even- ings, the recent electric light trouple with the company having been amica- bly settled.

 The patronage on the steam cars as cold weather approaches increases daily, and now over three-fourths of the factory employees are using the steam cars. This causes a broad smile of satisfaction to spread over the fea- lures of Ticket Agent Bayier. The delays on the 5:35 trolley cars are too numerous to make travelling pleasant.

Corporations in England.

A curious illustration of the power of corporations is reported from England. From time immemorial it has been established law there that bequests made for the propagat ton of, secular or freethinl<ing doctrines were subject to confiscation by the king, and thousands of pounds have been thus confscated. Recently. however, it occurred to some person to try new plan. A company known as the Secular society (lim- 1ted) was incorporated for the spe- cific purpose of receiving such be- quests, and the best English lawyers say that under it's charter it can re- ceive and hse bequests for the very purpose so long held unlawful. A corporation is . strange entity.
