THE NEW SPAIN.

Next Saturday the young King of Spain will take the oath which will make him the actual sovereign of the land, and though his Spain will not be as big as it has been it will perhaps be less troublesome than other rulers of it.have found it. Those were true and encouraging words which were spoken to the young king by Senor Sagasta, the prime minister, who assured him that the difficulties confronting him were not as great as those which his fa- ther, Alfonso XII, was called upon to Spain" said the prime minister, ''has not progressed as much as might be desired; still she has made substantial progress. Peace and tranquility have been secured, the era of military pro- nunciamentos Is past, and the attention of the people is centered in education and labor"
 The people of the civilized world will wish the new Spain and the new king success and prosperity, and nowhere will the wish be heartier than in this country And though perhaps some of the Spaniards don't realize it, this coun- try has done their country a good turn by relieving it of the burden of it's troublesome and expensive colonies.

PRACTICING MEDICINE BY TELE-
 PHONE

We heard doctor complain recently i that one of his patients, in order pre- sumably to save his time. sonnet imes
 called him up on the telephone when she wanted him to give advice about
 the baby. The good dame would sit at the other end of the wire, pencil in
 hand, and ask the unfortunate doctor to dictate his instructions while she
 took them down. This continued until one day she asked him to dictate his prescription At this he rebeled He
 was willing to take the babys tempera-
 ture and pulse by telephone and even
 to inspect the character of the deiec-
 tions; he was even willing to tell all
 he knew about babies in general and about that baby in particular; he did not even object for while to give the lady the full benefit of a professional call and charge 1t as an office visit; but his conscience smote him when it came to dictating a Latin prescription by tel ephone and having a thrifty-minded housewife sign his name to it before her own initials.
 Some physician should write a chap ter on the medical ethics of the tele- phone. We would do it ourselves if we felt capable. There are two sides to the question The patient sometimes gets the better of the doctor and saves fee
 but the doctor sometimes gets the bet ter of the patient and saves himself a lot of trouble. It is obvious that in ei- ther case the patient should pay for it. But the question arises what should he pay? Is it an office visit, or house visit? The advice is given in the office. but it is received in the house. This is somewhat of metaphysical quandary. Should doctor charge an office fee for giving advice that goes straight to the patients bedside? On the other hand,

1 LITTLE COMEORTING

It is to be hoped and it seems prob- able, that many, perhaps most, of the slain victims of the Martinique dsas- ter did not have to suffer long. John G. Morris, an engineer on the British steamer Roraima, describes the thing which caught his ship and nearly sunk 1t as "a cloud of fire, toppling and roar ing, sweeping with lightning speed
 down the mountain side and over town
 and bay And Prudent, seaman on
 an Italian ship, calls it a cyclone of
 smoke.' When it struck the people
 they fell dead. The cyclone of gas tore
 the masts out of ships. blew up other ships and sunk some of them. Soon af-
 terward came a wave of fire bigger than the smoke cloud. That cloud was bigger, it seemed, than the mountain. The fire burned the city everywhere at once. Near me I only saw dead men; but on shore l saw men and women rushing back and forth amid the flames. Then came that choking smoke and they would drop like dead flies. The explosion, smoke and fire all came and went in three minutes, but the city burned for three hours"

The other day Philadelphia teacher was having a lesson on Mrs. Heman's poem 'Casabianca" The pupils were quite interested in the fate of the brave boy whose father had told him to re- main at his post until given permission to leave. One tenderhearted little girl was even moved to tears at the thought of the boy who obeyed that command of his fathers. and met death in the flames, not knowing that the parent lay dead-unable to give the eagerly for word to move. The story of the lads obedience seemed to make such strong impression that the teacher thought it good chance to inculcate a moral lesson on the boys heroic con- duct. At the close of the lesson she thought she would have the scholars re- peat some of the beautiful sentiments she had endeavored to make So em- phatic.

There is a movement of farmers from the central West in. this country into the Canadian provinces of Manitoba, and a large land of Winnipeg, interviewed at Chicago, declares that from present indications probably fifty thousand Americans will settle in the Canadian Northwest this year. They are carrying American push, American agricultural methods and American farm machinery with them and they are manifesting no intention at present of becoming Canadian citizens and British subjects; but their presence is greatly welcome to the natives, and it is believed that the overflow will extend so far as to result in a transforrnatio of the country about the Red river.

Money crculates. In London num- ber of the new King Edward VII shil- lings were found in q banking house, although they had not yet been issued officially for circulation from the Bank of England. The authorities investi- gated the matter and found it's solu- tion quite easy. Some time ago there was a call for shillings from West Africa, and the new shillings were sent out from the mint, although these were not yet in circulation in England. From West Africa the shillings drifted over into the Congo Free State, and some of them were returned by a trader from the Congo Free State to Belgium, as that country has a nominal protec- torate over this portion of Africa. From Belgium the shillings were shipped back to London, where they went into circulation after having trav- elled thousands of miles and passed through many hands, reaching home before the English public could obtain any of these coins from the mint.

promises to be lively one, as several
townships have entered the list to com
pete for the prizes. The Delmar Bros,

give free exhibition on the grounds
every day during the fair. There are
several shows camped upon the grounds,
among them herd of 80 head of big
and little buffaloes. The management
has secured the services of Wayne
