national commercial relations are regu-
Ia Tod cir hwy %roofv

national commercial relations are regu-
lated entirely by treaty.
'Is it commons sense that we, the
greatest commercial nation, should
come forward and say We want to
arrange treaties with you, but we have
nothing to give you, nothing to with
hold from you. We throw ourselves
upon your mercy and consideration.
Please remember how good we are to
your commerce, how we throw no i'm
pediment in it's way, and how we do
ell we can for you, and please don't
forget us when you are making your
next treaty. Laughter
''Are the negotia tons between ma
tons which have to deal with duties
upon manufactured goods different
from other negotiations carried on for
other purposes? Did any man ever
hear Of successful negotiations with
out nation having something to give
which in case of necessity it might
withhold.
my fundamental and essential re-
quest to YOU tonight, to which the rest
of my speech is subsidiary and acct
dental, is that the people of this coun-
try should give to it's government that
freedom of negotiation of which we
have been deprived = not by force
Of circumstances or by the pressure OF
foreign powers, but by something l
can only describe as our own pedantry
and self-conceit''
Regarding the taxation Of food he
thought the country not yet ready for
1t, but also that the evils thereof had
been greatly exaggerated.

Mistake, Mistaken.

The use of these words seems to be
so anomalous as to need some inquiry
and explanation. al
l may be mistaken, for continually
make mistakes. But when shown to
have been mistaken l own myself in
error. Yet, If / am mistaken, it is not
the error of him who mistakes me!
But it may be that l am right and
that he is mistaken, though I suppose
that 1 ought to take him Alright and
not mistake him. Nevertheless often
have to say in argument: ''You We're
quite right 1 was mistaken"
In word, though he who mistakes
must be in error, our common use of
language considers him who is mis-
taken to be so.-Notes and Queries.

The Good Red Grouse.

Besides his many other claims to dis
tinction the good red grouse" has one
which is often forgotten. He is the one
vertebrate creature peculiar to the
British isles. All the rest Of our fauna
is duplicated elsewhere, and even his
cousin, the black cock, has foreign re-
lations, but the true grouse exists no
where in the world except within the
United Kingdom, and considering what
a noble game bird he is, how hardy and
plucky. and how magnificent in his
fight, the fact is really something to be
proud of.-London Globe.

TRAIN KILLS A MULE
And Though 1t Was Head-On Collision
on Both Sides Derailment Was
the Result.

Columbus, Ind, Oct. 2. - Pennsyl-
.vania freight No. 2s7, north-bound, in
charge~ Of Engineman Wileman, Fire
man Wilson and Conductor Crittenden,
ran into a mule owned by Daniel r.
vim, of st. Louis Crossing, two miles
north of that place, on the Cambridge
branch. The engine struck the mule
in the head, killing him instantly. The
force Of the collision derailed the en-
CINE, running it across the road.
Several freight cars were piled up
and call was sent to this place for
the wreck train. Both engineman and
fireman jumped and saved their lives.
Fireman Wilson suffered a severe
sprain of the knee and was brought to
this city ON the wreck train. Traffic
