MAXINE ELLIOTT.

The very fact Of being in business in a country
renders person subject to it's mercantile laws,
and can recall some years ago where the
creditors of a foreign secretary of legation sta
toned in London. who had run heavily into
debt and declined any settlement feeling him
self safe, by reason OF his diplomatic status
from legal action on their part. were shrewd
enough to induce him, through third parties, to
embark in some business enterprise. on the
strength of this they at once bounced down upon
him, seized his property and forced him to dis
gorge, his diplomatic immunity having ceased
from the moment that he engaged in business.
Now. if being in business deprives foreign
diplomat of exemption from the jurisdiction Of
the civil courts of the country in which he is
stationed. it likewise renders him necessarily
amenable to the criminal tribunals OF the land
and should Minister Hunters son have been en-
gagged in business in Guatemala it is difficult to
see how he can be held exempt from the action

It is just as we'll to explain this, as very

could not run on English territory which he
described the embassy to be. Subsequently the
ambassador ascertained that from the point Of
view Of international law the position which he
had assumed untenabIe. and after quietly
obtaining assurance from the Sultan that
said would incur loss of life or liberty, and
be safe from harm he induced the Oriental

There are to-day over three million

are standing aside bewildered, and in
some cases indignant, seeing their po-

number of women. The position OF

Naturally there is much speculation
in Paris and elsewhere, as to the true
cause of the alienation Of some of the
most prominent champions of Alfred
Dreyfus from the former wretched pris-
oner of Devils island Few persons be-
lieve that it was only the dismissal of
NJ. Cornely from the Grande Revue
that induced M. Reinach to recall the
brief in the Henry case from NJ La
bori, or that this affair can at all ac-
count for the attitude OF M. Labor, or
Lieut.. Col. Piequart toward Dreyfus
and his family. That NJ. Labori was
profoundly stirred by the remark of
one OF Dreyfus' friends that he could
not live on the 'affaire' for the rest OF

Matilda's heart had leaped to her
throat at the look he gave her. 1t was
a strange proceeding for so aged a
heart that had put aside all youthful
follies.
The boat moved slowly; the river
swept away into the forests depths.
Their laughter was the spontaneous
laughter of two who find content in
each others presence; their silence
held no estrangement.
A purple mist settled on the blue
mountains that belted the distance;
from some near hill, a milkmaid's call

SOME AGED ANIMALS.
Those Who Have an Easy Life Live for
Quite Lengthy Periods.

Quite Lengthy Periods.
In the vicinity of Paris a home fol
old domestic animals was established
some time ago, and among the present
inmates are mule " years old, a COW
SO, and pig rs years old.
II is claimed that domestic animals
which lead an easy life are likely to
live far beyond the average age, il
properly cared for. Many birds GER
tainly attain an extraordinary age.
Eagles, ravens and parrots frequently
live hundred years and pelicans prob
ably live as long, for it is recorded
that one Of these birds was placed in
the Amsterdam geological garden some
time before 1892, and was still there in
1870. This pelican, too, was at least
four or five years old when it was
placed in the garden.
Eels are also long lived. Professor
Buchner tells of one. which was kept
for twenty-six years in pond at
Thiengen, in which It was placed at
the age OF eight years. 1t attained a
length of nearly five feet, and its fav-
orite haunt was in the current that
flowed into the pond. All authorities
agree that domestic animals which are
obliged to do a good deal of work do
not live so long as those which lead
placid life.
