From the Philadelphia Record.


An Englishman who has lived in this city
number OF years. but who has not yet
been naturalized. announced his intention
OF becoming an American citizen last week.
His reason for this step Is unique. During
his residence in America he has been firm
in the belief that anything English was
exactly right and would admit Of no con-
tradction. Among his favorite English
notions was the spelling of honor. color. Ia
Dor. etc. which are spelled by many across
the pond honour. colour. labour. and SO on.
A short time ago the Briton noticed in a
Philadelphia paper an article which stated
that the official organ OF English conserva-
tism the London Times had adopted the
American spelling He was at first amazed,
then he doubted, and at last he took the
trouble of writing to the Times. Upon re-
ceiving an affirmative reply he was so dis
gusted that he said it was no use being an
Englishman any more when Britons were
becoming Americanized. So he took out
his first papers.

Officials of the government here are now
certain that the anti-American movement
is over. or at least that 1t has lost it's pow

A number of these cannon were sent
