Germany, the friendliness between the two
races was pronounced. Bismarck is de-
clared in his memoirs written by Busch
to have been DESTROYS as far back as 1894
Of arousing hostility among his people to-
ward the English in connection with the
attitude of that people toward the Beers.
This disposition of the old chancellor
may well be imputed to the palpable par
TALLY of the English toward the French,
and earlier toward the Danes during
Prussias difficulties with those two ma
ditions that would have operated in favor
of stirring up national antagonism in
Germany toward England at any time
since the Napoleonic wars. England's
political isolation from continental poll
tics ought to have saved her from any
such antagonism. Yet it remains beyond
discussion that neither in Russia nor
France does any such feeling of aver
sion toward the English exist as prevails
today throughout Germany.
That aversion is traceable chiefly to
the situation in South Africa. When
young William retreated from his ex-
preston of sustainment of Kruger, it
was the politician in the man that as
serted itself. No doubt the young ruler
meant every word of his famous dis
patch and more; but he soon discover
ed that his people were not in a position
to get into trouble with England Ger
man naval and industrial development
have progressed far, side by side, since
that day: but Germany is not yet, no
matter how predisposed the people may
be, ready to make quarrel with England.
The young emperor will see that they
do not.
Commercial and industrial rivalry has
something to do with the difficulty; but
the Beers must be regarded as the main
cause of the i'll will with which Eng
land is regarded by the entire Germanic
nation, both at home and abroad. There
is little doubt but that if German naval
development had reached the proper
point, England would at this time have
still more serious difficulty on her hands
in connection with her South African
affairs,

Another Joker Is "Joked"

A well-known and prosperous real
estate broker whose place OF business
is in Market street not far from
Tenth, treated his office force during
the holidays to'two pounds of Eowney's
mixtures. An amusing exchange of
jokes was had before the candy was
passed around. THE broker gave one
dollar to a young woman in the adjOin-
ing office, with instructions to pay for
the candy if delivered while he was at
lunch.
The candy came. To play joke on
the broker and his assistants the young
woman hid the package in the safe, and
when he returned she told him that
the candy had not arrived. He was
surprised but allowed her 10 go to her
lunch without comment AS soon as
she had gone he looked around and
found the receipt for the candy This
aroused his suspicious. and, assisted by
his clerks he found the candy in the
safe. Removing the package they de-
cided to play a joke in return; so, TAX
ing the wrappers and string from the
box they carefully wrapped "A brick
in it and placed it in the safe in exact
ly Hhe same position as the young wo-
man had left the "Lowneys.' When
she returned they told her that sne
must have received THE candy for they
had found the receipt for it.
After tantalizing them until She felt
satisfied. she ran to the safe, grasped
the package. and Sailed out Of tho
room with it, She shortly returned
and teased them for several minytes.
They begged her to open the candy
and pass it around. She did. She un-
wrapped it, carefully folding the paper
and putting it away, but her face ac-
ltually blanohed when She uncovered
the brick. She glanced around at the
others and said:

therefore, It remains for MS to consider
whether the Panama route is not pref
cradle under these new conditions.
If we do not mistake the temper OF
Congress and Of our people. we are in
canal-building humor, and the
French holders have just made their
offer in time to receive consideration.
There is one feature of the Panama
route which should be carefully con
sidered; that IL alone seems to offer
the opportunity of making in time a
tide-water canal Such we are told
would be impossible with the Mica
ragua cut. We must look we'll to the
future, and the probabilities are that
ere long the amount of traffic passing
through the canal would demand al
tide-level way.
