Their Hatred of England.

Ferdinand de Lesseps used to tell Iow a Frenchman came to his aid when he was struggling against Palmerston's opposition to the Suez canal The man, who was a total stranger, walked Into his office one day and drew out of his pocket a wallet stuffed with bank notes.
 'MouSieur," said he, q beg the privt- lege of being allowed to subscribe to- ward the railway of the island of Swe- den" But, monsieur" said Lesseps, it is not a railroad; it's canal. It's not an island, but an isthmus. It Is not In Sweden, but at Suez." 'I don't care what 1t Is or where it is," said the capitalist, "so long as it worries Eng land. Put me down, l say"
 But Lesseps had little reason to make fun of this episode If the picture his own son draws of him be true. BecOm- ing incensed at some attack made on him in the British parliament and be- ing inadeQuately provided with means to express his rage, his mind suddenly reverted to his linen collar, which was of English make. He tore it from his neck, dashed it upon the floor and danced on it, all for hatred of the is- land 1t came from.

Routed by Puppets.

Toward the close of the reign of Elizabeth, when the Spaniards were frequently lowering about the south west coast of England, a party from their ships landed in the neighborhOod of where Falmouth stands today, with the intention of burning the borough of Penryn. It chanced, however, that that same evening some strollers had set up in Penryn market place a repre- sentation by puppets of certain incl dents in the life of Samson, including his victory over the Philistines.
 At the point of Samson's onset upon these with the jawbone of the ass the strollers beat drums and sounded trum- pets indicative of an alarm, and the Spanlards, who were at that moment about to rush the town, believing it to be full of soldiers, bolted for their boats.
 This probably occurred in 1895, when there was Spanish squadron on the coast which landed troops and burned PenRance

is greater than it is in America, and

The Sense of Sight.

Like every other sense, that Of sight
improves by use under healthy condi-
tons, and therefore the people who
have the greatest exercise Of their WIS.,
ion In the open air under the light of
the sun have the best eyesight. Cen
orally speaking. savage tribes possess
the keenest eyesight, acquired through
hunting. Natives of the Solomon Isl.
ands are very quick at perceiving dis
tant objects, such as ships at sea, and
will pick out birds concealed in dense
foliage some sixty or seventy feet
high. Shepherds and sailors are blessed
with good sight
Eskimos will detect white fox in
the snow a great distance away. while
the Arabs OF the deserts Of Arabia
have such extreme powers OF vision
that on the vast plains of the desert
they will pick out objects Invisible to
the ordinary eye at ranges from one
to ten miles distant Among civilized
peoples the Norwegians have better
eyesight than most, If not all, others,
as they more generally fulfill the nee
essary conditions. The reason why
defective eyes are so much on the in.
crease in this country and in Europe
lies in too much study Of books in early
life and in badly lighted rooms.

Charges Made In Seventeen SpeCifl-
tiOnS-Russia Replies.
Paris, Jan. 23.-The international
commission appointed to inquire into
the North Sea incident has begun ita
public sessions.
A great number of naval men from
different countries were in attendance,
as we'll as many high government Off.
cials.
Hugh O'Beirne. of the British en-
bassy, agent of Great Britain before
the inter national commission, read the
charges, which consisted of seventeen
specifications, infinitely setting forth
the attack on the Hull fishing fleet.
1t was specifically declared that ne
japanese torpedo boats and no war
ships whatever were among the fishing
fleet, and that no japanese warships
were anywhere in the North sea.
Baron Taube read the Russian reply,
which specifically declared that two
strange boats approached the Russian
squadron, which boats the searchlights
disclosed to be torpedo boats. There
upon fire was opened, the torpedo boats
moving off and later disappearing.
The Russian statement asserted that
Admiral Rojestvensky was absolutely
obliged to act as he did in order to de.
stroy the torpedo boats which had at.
tackled his squadron.

INDIANS NEED AID.
President Urges Congress to Do
Some fhinn for Alaska Natives,

Something for Alaska Natives.
Washington. Jan. 23.-In transmit
ting to the senate a report by Lieut..
Il. 7. Emmons, of the navy, on the
condition of the natives of Alaska, the
president sent message saying:
Lieut.. Emmons had for many
years peculiar facilities for ascertain
ing the facts about the natives Of Alas
ka and has recently concluded an in
vestigation made on the ground by my
spectral direction. very earnestly
ask the attention of congress to the
facts set forth in this report as to the
needs of the native people of Alaska.
It seems to me that our honor as ma
ton is involved in seeing that these
needs are met. earnestly hope that
legislation along the general lines ad-
vocsted by Lieut.. Emmons can be
enacted"
In his report Lieut.. Emmoas says
that the thrush of white settlers in
Alaska has caused complete change
of conditions; that the game is being
rapidly killed off and the food supply
of the Indians rapidly exhausted; that
they are like grown-up children and
incapable of taking care Of themselves
in the new conditions and that it will
be necessary to do something substan.
tial for them at an early day to pre-
vent actual suffering.
