At one of the local hostleries dwells
Captain Goodale-and baby. Now

babies, so far as looks are concerned,
but can't the baby howl' He can make
more noise with his diminutive vocal

naturally he recognizes this baby's su.
periority over Others; he considers this
baby a pre.eminent howler and often
and fondly refers to him as a brat"
OF course We might take exception 10
the Captains opinion, being that the
baby belongs to the 'ad man. and then
We mightn't. We deem it a good policy
to refrain from agreeing with either the
Captain or the proud father. II is up
to the reader TO decide whether the Joke
is on Captain GOodale, the "ad man or
the baby.

terday. The officers showed photo.
graphs of this unusual sight. The ship
was in latitude 1928, longitude 1850,
at $3.50 o'clock on Friday morning, when
an iceberg was seen twenty miles north.
1t resembled the profile of a woman's
head, and while the passengers were
looking at it in wonder, there suddenly
appeared above it the mirage. Another
iceberg loomed above, and the most pow.
erful telescopes failed to discern it
on the sea. While all the spectators
were wondering at the sight, there ap.
peared, wrong side up and apparently
twp miles distant from the northerIy
iceberg, a fourmasted vessel. Every
sail was as clear cut against the ky as
if carved. This was in sight for three
hours, in which time the officers took
number of photographs.

PLAN OF PEACEMAKING.

1t must be regarded as cause for lit
tie surprise and for more regret that
something ike demand has been made
for China's representation in the peace
negotiations between Russia and Japan,
and that Russia has been made to ap-
pear to favor it. Even though, as we
have hitherto said, such a desire on Chi
mas part may not be unnatural, the
grave arguments against it should be
apparent to the statesmen of that EN-
pire, and they should still be more APP
parent and convincing to the Russian
government.
The President of the United States,
acting beneyolently and impartially, for
the sake of humanity, on June last
diplomatically urged the Russian and
japanese governments "to open direct
negotiations for peace with one anoth.
err and further suggested chat these
"peaee negotiations be conducted direct
ly and exclusively between the bellig.
erents." The studied and explicit phra-
seology Of that communication, and the
fact that it was addressed to the Rus
sian and japanese governments alone
and to no other, unmistakably indicated
his intention that only Russia and Jap
an were to be parties to the negotiation.
II is understood that these two govern.
ments accepted his suggestion just as it
was made Since, then, the agreement
was thus made for negotiations "exclu-
sively between the belligerents," it
would seem 10 be an extraordinary
performance now to introduce into the
conference a third power which is not
belligerent, but which, on the contrary
has been kept out of the war through
the earnest diplomatic efforts of the
United States.
