HOAR ON ~AGUINALDO.

Senator Hoars recent statement that
he never ikened Aguinaldo to Wash
ington is quoted by the organs with
gusto as showing a change of senti-
ment on the part Of the venerable
Massachusetts statesman, or that he
has been misquoted as to his opinion
of the Filipino patriot. For, be it I'M
derstood the organs find 1t difficult to
dispose of the w~hite-haired Republican
Senator, whose American patriotism is
unquestioned by the usual method of
calling him "auntie." 1t now appears,
however, that somebody has been garb-
ling the Senator. Although it is true
he denies likening the Filipino to
Washington, Mr.. Hoar adds in explain
alton: Il have likened him to Bolivar
and Garibaldi, and to other famous
lovers of liberty, and to Toussaint
L'Ouverture and to Kossuth. I have
never regretted that comparison, and l
have never been more disposed to make
it than now in the days of his adver-
stty. But, l believe, if I am not much
mistaken, I have always refrained from
comparing any living man to Washing
ton"
This offers cold comfort to Mr.. Hoar's
party organs, who now will be under
the painful necessity after having killed
the fatted calf on the supposed return
Of the prodigal, of casting him out Of

An interesting query frequently pro-

As his only companions, his faithful

dog, Charles H. Conrad waits for death
with the knowledge that nothing else
can ever release him from his suffer

for hundreds of the most eminent ply

the strange malady with which he is
afflicted. and its effect is the forma-

The people of Patiala, in India, will

India, but singularly diedin the service

habitually wore English Clothes and a

and regally entertained vast crowds OF
Englishmen, who, according TO the
agreeable manner of Engiishmen in
India. would receive neither him nor
his wife into their houses in return.
He was a sportsman of the first order;
he had one of the finest polo teams in
India, played for it himself and was
almost worthy of his place. But with
the English taste for sport he had i'm

more than the revenues of his state

Though only young man of %, he had
tried his constitution severely, and il

the case adjourned the defendant re-
manned behind and asked the judge
for few moments conversation.

POOR PEOPLE IN PARIS.
Can No Longer Live In the City Be-
cause of the Advances fn
Rentx.

The housing problem is one that for
years has lain heavily on those with
small incomes in Paris.
Every day the French capital be-
comes more and more impossible as
a residence for poor people, and while
handsome houses grow more nu-
merous, reasonable lodgings become
scarcer.
The poor no longer find it easy to
secure apartments at modest rental
in the city unless they are willing to
be confined in Darrack-like tenements
in the sixth or even seventh story
or shut off in a courtyard where they
get very little daylight and hardly
ever see the sun. writes the Paris cor
respondent of the London Mai.
The workingman has, therefore,
been obliged to migrate to the out
skirts of the city, and whole suburbs,
like La Villette on one side of Paris
and Grenelle on the other side. are
now inhabited exclusively by indus
trial colonies.
| Every exhibition in Paris has
brought a rise in rents all round and
to-day the landlords dues are higher
than ever. Less accommodation is
available in Paris for a given rental
than in London and the sanitary con-
ditions are generally inferior.
The better housing of the working
classes, however. is beginning to at
tract the attention of reformers and
when the extension of the city even
tually takes place perhaps some Inn
provement will be effected
