A KINDERGARTEN CABINET,
The Popular Name for highlands Adj
visers to Pref Balfour.

The new cabinet which Mr.. Balfour is
bringing into being has already found Il
popular name in the apTellation of THE
Kindergarten" Never before have 50
many young men been called upon to de-
liberate on the destinies of British affairs
as now. There has always been one
youngster at the fore some unusually
precocious politi al lion in swaddling
clothes like Pitt or Charles James FoX.
hut his eXuberance has universally been
checked ty the surrounding influence Of
mature old age on the part of other min
listers. But now, Why, We are rapidly
coming to a ge at which the responsible
ministers Of the Crown are actually in
the prime of life, possessed of all their
teeth. their hair and the rest Of their men
tai, moral and physical faculties.
Here, for instance, is George Wyndham

modatod with seat at the cabinet table

since the father appeared in the lobby OF
the House leading his promising offspring

various parliamentary celebrities, such as
Gladstone, Bright, Parnell, Lord Sails
bury Ealfour and the ever faithful Jesse
Ceilings. who now finally reires from
honorable second place in the fight for
public recognition.
Young Austen Chamberlain is the very
echo Of his father, in stature figure ges-
turc, facial expression and voice. He wears
his monoCle with the same distinguished
air as his father and completes the resem-
hlance of never falling to appear on the
floor OF the House without the gorgeous

in copying his fathers habit of making

none left for the younger, Whatever it is

CAUGHT A 1s POUND PICKEKEL

f. j. Ludwig of st, Luke's hospital. New
York, who is the guest of Mr.. and Mrs.
Lord at their cottage at Queen City Park,
Is probably the most successful fisherman
there this season. His last catch, a pickerel
weighing lGia pounds and measuring three
feet four inches is the largest fish caught
there this season and 1t is likely to stand
on record for some time to come 1t was
very interesting to watch the struggle be-
tween the fish and it's captor. The latter,
realizing that it would be difficult to land
his catch into the boat, made for the shore
and pulled the FISH clear out of water.
There the fun begun. The fish tapped
and jumping high, broke the hooks at the
same time, giving its enemy no chance
to take good hold on teach successive
jump of the fish bringing 1t nearer and
nearer the water, and for a time il seemed
as though the fish would escape, but al
this critical moment Mr.. Ludwig drew n
revolver and bullet sent into the brain
of the fish brought victory for the fisher.

Death valley snnd-Pillars.

Travellers in the celebrated Death
Valley of California have described
the wonderful contortions Of the
sand-pillars that small whirlwinds
sometimes send spinning across the
hot plain. Even more remarkable
are the dust devils seen by Mr. II.
F. Witherby, the English explorer,
in the valley of the White Nile.
Sometimes two of these whirling col
umns, gyrating in opposite direc-
tions, meet, land if they be we'll
matched the collision stops them and
struggle ensues as to which way
they shall twist. Gradually one
gains the mastery and the two COM
bined begin to gyrate alike and then
rush on together" Some OF these
whirls will strip the clothes from an
Arabs back, or twist a goat round
and round like a top.

SpORTSMEN PHOTOGRAPHERS.
Quite n Number who Have Re1in-
suished the Gun and Taken
I'D the Camera.

In a recent book hunter tell
how he spent many weary months
In the attempt TO shoot an eagle, and
at last anbushed so successfully
that he actually touched the bird
with his fingers. Having got so far
he was content and let the eagle go
free. It may be hunters tale; but
there are at present very consid-
cradle number OF sportsmen who are
great deal keener to see their
game at close quarters than to kill
it, says the London Globe. Instead
Of the old phrase: LET us go and
kill something" the hunter now
says: LET us go and focus some
thing" The camera has supplanted
the gun. There are now made all
manner Of devices, more ingenious
and intricate even than the older
trappers devised, for getting the
camera to bear on unsuspecting ami
mails. A boat. resembling little the
duck snooting boats used on the
Irish coast, has been devised, which
is propelled without oars or sails,
and has beautiful Photographic
apparatus rugged up in the bows.
There are other not less clever
means for approaching and photo
graphing deer in their native haunts
and they have been used with alto
gether remarkable success. HUI
manitarians are already pointing out
that this sport with the camera
gives all the excitement of the chase
without any of the cruelty; and at
least this much may be conceded,
that the difficulties Of photograph
ing, say, a weasel are considerably
greater and therefore more attract
i've than those of shooting it.
