Proof About Feeding.

It has been proved times without num-

"While I was teaching school in 1898,
a little girl in the household where 1
would eat all she was allowed. I, noticed
that she was a remarkably bright pupil.
There were five other children, all of one
family, that were so marked in their
work. They were really the brightest

Offer of Arbitration. s-.'
. London, Feb 6.-Lord Salisbury, the
premier, yesterday unveiled a life sized
marble statue of the late Queen Victoria
at the Junior Constitutional club Speak
ing at dinner after the unwilling the
premier referred to the recent Dutch
note in tone, for him, Of unusual flip
pancy. He said that doubtless some of
his auditors thought it a bit of luck to
catch cabinet minister and extract from
him some Information concerning that
abortive crisis which had lately filled
columns in the newspapers. He doubted,
however, if they would extract much. For
himself he was unable to imagine the
object of the Dutch government for whose
friendly feelings he had the greatest ad-
miration, but he could not see the pre-
else object they hoped to gain by this
curious step. He said, further:
1t was clear that the Dutch had no author
ization from our enemies on the continent,
since from the moment this action on the part
of the Netherlands government was an
nounced, these enemies We'd with each other
in declaring the Dutch action to be unde-
sired. There is no longer any question Of
sentiment. We have entered upon a matter
of business which we must push through.
What we are now seeking is security Any
peace which recognizes fully the rights of
the sovereign and gives us security for the
empire we should accept not only with will
ingness, but with delight.

Constantinople, Feb. 6--The failure OF
the attempt to secure the release OF MISS
Stone and Nine. Tsilka from the brigands
was due primarily to the lack OF proper
cooperation between Mr.. Leishman, the
American minister here, and MI. Dickin-
son, the consul general Of the United
States. During his visit to Bulgaria MT.
Dickinson made precise arrangements for
the payment of the ransom in Bulgaria,

Upon Mr.. Dickinson's return to Con-
stantinople, and before permission for pay
ment of the amount and other details had
been received from Washington, Mr..
Leishman, who was absent while these
arrangements were being made, objected
strongly to the payment OF the money IN
Bulgaria. Mr.. Leishman saw the grand
vizier and stated that he was about to
pay the amount in Turkey. He asked that
the strictest instructions be sent for the
protection of those taking the money.
The grand vizier agreed, and, fresh ne
gotiations were opened with the brigands.
A change was made in the matter OF pay
ment and letters were obtained, as had
been asked by cable.
Smith Leyte, deputy American consul;
M. Gargiulo, dragcman to the legation,
and DR.. Peet. secretary OF the American
mission, proceeded with the cash to Pas

Chicago, Feb e.-Walter Wellman, in

jority in the lower branch of congress.
The republican leaders to-day succeeded
in closing the breach in their ranks. How

ton, which no one pretends to be able to
answer at this time Speaker Henderson
and his lieutenants have secured the as

gram whichs is that no tariff revision
amendments are to be put on the war tax
reduction bill. Next week, therefore, the
war tax bill will be taken up for con-
sideration, and as a precautionary meas
ure a rule will be adopted by which the
majority declares that NO revision amend
ments shall be considered.
1t is admitted that this expedient only
postpones and does not settle the question
of revision. The advocates Of the Bah

Rational Road to Revision.


The rational and practical way, in my
Judgment, and from information obtained
from members in favor of some revision,
practically all of whom agree, would be to
take up the subject of a limited revision OF
the tariff in republican caucus, defining the
limitations of that revision and then instruct
the republican members of the ways AID
means committee to prepare a bill! within
these limitations In this way we could &C
! complsh all the people seem DESTROYS of hav-
ing accomplished without jeopardizing the
prosperity of industries that no prctectionist
wants to see disturbed or objected by tariff
reductions. ~. ..s ....
The republican papers that have hereto
fore favored some revision of the tariff have
all claimed that it should be done by the
friends of projections To attempt to do it in
the house by amendment to the war revenue
repeal bill would result in a revision by op-
ponents of protection and democratic free
traders.

STICKS TO 1T
Iteration of German Story as to In.
PREVENTION in 1898.

Berlin, Feb. 6.--The official British de-
NAL that Lord Pauncefote, the British
ambassador at Washington, on April IA,
1885, made second proposal to the pow
ers to demonstrate with the United States
was to-day laid before a high German
official, whose functions give him absolute
first hand knowledge of everything just
as it occurred. He reafhrmed the state
ment made in these dispatches yesterday.
Referring to his copious notes, he dictated
therefrom the following data: =.
On Feb. IA the Spanish ambassador at Beg
lin asked the German government whether
Germany was willing to head a European
movement against the United States in de-
tense Of the monarchic principle. The next
day the ambassador informed by order
of the emperor that Germany would under no
circumstances take the action desired. Spain
| renewed her efforts in March to secure some
action by Germany, but she was again an
swered with a refusal. At the same time
DR.. Won Holleben was instructed to take part
in any steps at Washington in the interests
of peace only if all the other five govern
| ment powers participated. Then on April q
the joint note was handed to President Nc
Kinley.
We were informed from Washington on
| April IA that the British ambassador there
proposed a second collective note, declaring
that armed Intervention in Cuba would be
! unjustifable. Again, upon the emperor's
! order, the German representatives at Wash
! ington, Rome, Vienna and Madrid were in
! structed that Germany would refuse to par
| ticipate in such declaration, as she saw no
prospect that anything could be accomplished
| thereby.
! The impression prevails that while the
| German government wishes to avoid the
| appearance of desiring to fall into the
United States arms, on the other hand
/ she regards it as important to controyert
| the wrong impressions that Germany was
| disposed to do anything unfriendly to the
! United States.
