Where Ambitions Arc Wrecked.

An American art student in Paris
says: There are more wrecks of
young lives and young ambitions In
Montmartre than In any other quarter
Of the globe. Fellows who fancy they
are destined to become great artists
have the illusion knocked out of them,
but they refuse to leave. They are
there from all parts Of the world,
stranded. hopeless beggars, living no
one knows how. and stunning their
fellow-men. One case in particular
caught my attention-that of an Eng
lishman named Jones, let us say. His
father is an evangelist, who came over
TO America several years ago. This fell
low poses as a misanthrope of the most
pronounced type. He associates with
nobody. and his only companion is a
little black dog. He will live for days
IN bread and milk in order hat he
may buy meat for his dog. One night
I was with a crowd Of other students,
and we passed him in the street. He
turned. glared at US, and Kissed: I
hate them! l hate them Then he sat
down on the curb with his dog In his
arms and buried his face in its shaggy
ooat."-Nsw York Tribune.

A rather peculiar fatality occurred
the other day at Lamlash in the island
Of Arran. where the reserve squadron
was stationed for a week. A torpedo
was lost from the battleship Howe in
about twenty fathoms Of water, and a
diver was sent down to search for it.
On his return to the surface he was
apparently we'll. but he suddenly be-
came Ill and died within an hour. A
post mortem examination disclosed the
fact that death had been due to a very
rare ailment known in the medical
profession as caisson disease or divers
paralysis, which only occurs when the
pressure under which a diver works is
more than three atmospheres and gen
orally follows a rapid rise to the sur
face. There were bubbles Of gas in the
blood vessels. heart and brain tissue

The report says in part as to armor:
Your committe also provides under
the increase of the navy an appropri-
alton of $4,000, 900 for and arm
ament for ships now under construct
ion. 1t will be remembered that con-
gress wisely solved the perplexing
question of providing armor plate for
our ships last year by the enactment
of a provision giving the secretary of
the navy full power to buy armor 1t
such price as in his judgment might
seem reasonable and just, or build an
armor plate factory, toward which $4,-
0O0, 900 was appropriated. 1t ought to
be a matter of general congratulation
that the armor-plate question has been
through the skill, firmness and
excellent judgment of the secretary of
the navy in carrying out the evident
purposes Of congress-"

HEAVY NAVAL BILL.
AS REPORTED TO THE HOUSE 1T
APPRoPRIATEs SEVENTY.
SEVEN MILLIONS.
Breaks All Former Records-Commit-
tee Recommends the Buildino of
Two More sattIeships Carrying
the Heaviest Armor.

Washington, Jan. 19.-The naval ap.
preparation bill was reported to the
house today with an elaborate state.
ment of its provisions. by Chairman
Foss of the naval committec. The bill
carries $77,0l6,G35 the largest ever re,
ported to the house from the commit,
tee on naval affairs. This is s11, S65,.
us above the bill of last year and &c.,
229, 1895 below the estimates submitted
by the navy department. Concerning
new ships for the navy the report
says:
For the purpose of further increas-
ing the naval establishment of the I'm
tied states the committee recommends
that the president be authorized to
have built by contract two uusheathed
sea-going b~attleships, carrying the
heaviest armor and the most powerful
the world, and rents have risen to fab
ulous prices.
Fearful sorrow, not unmiXed with ex-
p%ectation, is written broad upon every
face. That official secrecy which stops
oil callers at the lodge gates does not
serve to mitigate the general dread
that pervades the islands. Located al
most as Key West is to the United
States, they hold in their bosom the
most precious and reverend personali-
ty that a nation ever worshiped, and
II is the general impression that forty
eight hours will bring the crisis of that
feeble life upon which so many inter
national threads hang. The country
women paused in their Saturday night
shopping tours to pray that the hand
OF death might be stayed from falling
on the big house over the Medina river,
but their prayer finds little echo in
hope, for those who have seen the
queen down there say she was only a
shadow of death. Yet the policeman
on duty at the gates refers all callers to
the last bulletin and says mechani-
cally: slight improvement" The
dread word paralysis" is carefully
kept from the nation.

Hard Feelings Continue Over Seizure
Of Property Of Americans.

London, Jan. ia dispatch from
Curacao, Dutch West Indies, to Reu.
ter's Telegram company, says the re.
lations between the United States and
Venezuela have not improved, and
that the United States minister, Fran.
els b. LOOMS, has sent a strongly
worded note, which Ia described as
being practically an ultimatum, to the
Venezuelan government.
Washington, Jan. 19.-It is said to-
night that this government has not au
thoriZed Minister LOOMS to present a
formal note to the Venezuelan govern
ment, and certainly nothing in the ma
ture Of an ultimatum. The secretary
said that Minister Loomis' instructions
so far have been Geographic, and have
directed him to protest to the Venezu-
elan authorities against any d~espolia-
ton Of American rights and property.
Further than this, the state depart
ment has not sent forward any definite
instructions as to the next steptto be
taken If the minister's negotiations do
not meet satisfactory compliance.

Venezuela, the nearest port to the
scene Of the trouble between the rival
asphalt companies. She recently left
La Guayra (the port Of Caracas) and
brings the latest news Of the venezu-
elan troubles.
The situation is described as being
serious. It is said that the emphatic
protests Of the government at Wash

at the lake Of the Bermuda Asphalt
company vas feared. The most hot
headed Of the foreigners in Venezuela
go so far as to say that If the Washing
ton authorities do not take steps to
protect American citizens now all for
eigners may as well leave the country.
The officers Of the Scorpion are quoted
as saying that the diplomatic corps at
Caracas is unanimous on this point, as
are all the foreigners. They admit,
however, that the United States minis
ter at Caracas, Mr.. Francis B. LOOMS,
Is working vigorously in the efforts to
arrange matters.
1t Is further asserted that hundreds
