ENGLANDgS POSITION

LONDON, May Q, 1905.-The gravity
Of the situation arising from the revela-
tions made by correspondents IN China
is fully recognized by the press here.
While the editorials are restrained and
refrain from any language iInpugning the
honor of the French Government. there
is an undisguised expression Of opinion
in a majority of the papers that France
shows badly and that loyalty to the.
japanese as Great Britain's allies is not
clouded BY the claims of the new entente
with France.
The Morning POST says that France
is either neutral OF belligerent There is
no middle category SO long as she is
neutral Great Britain IS also nentral.
So soon as she passes the line of neu-
trality, Great Britain is compelled 10
cease her neutrality. Accordingly the
only condition on which the entente can
be maintained is that while Great Brit
ain abstains from assisting her ally.
France must also abstain from assisting
hers The people Of England viii not
tolerate any ambiguity On the point Of
loyalty 70 the Japanese alliance.

the Republicans having made their nom-
nations. Although it will be September
before the nominations are made in
Hudson county, it is pretty well UNDER
stood who will be the candidates of the
two parties for the different offices TO be
filled. Only one change is probable and
that is IN the Shrievalty contest on the
Democratic side. Just now Egbert Sey-
mour has the backing of the organiza-
ton and the sentiment Of the party is
50 strongly against him that it may be
found necessary to take up another man.
John :. Heavey is the logical candidate,
but the talk is that under no circum-
stances will he be accepted By the party
leaders. There are dozen or more
names mentioned in connection with The
nomination should it be deemed advisa 5le
to seek compromise candidate.

The Kaiser's Christmas Walk.

Kaiser Wilhelm on the Afternoon be-
fore Christmas invariably strolls
along the roads that lead through the
woods of Sans Souci Park and Pots
dam to scatter pleasant surprises in
the form of CHEEKY words and bright
new coin. In the dusk and shadow of
the woods his majesty is seldom rec
ognized. Every one is very busy on
Holy Eve, and as the. kaiser chooses
a different road each year, no one
can guess where he may appear. The
gardeners and workmen about the
park are generally hailed by their
sovereign and enriched with shining
thalers stamped with the giver's
countenance. Last year one poor old
woman carrying heavy bundle of
sticks was suddenly greeted with a
hearty ''Gluchliche Felertage!' and a
fve-mark piece was slipped into her
hand by a strange gentleman whom
she recognized only after he had
briskly passed out of sight. Woman

Salt. for Live Stock.

Keep salt where the COWS can get it
at will and you will find they give more
milk and seem to be in better condi-
tion than when sailed, at irregular in
tervals. In wet weather, however,
they are liable to eat too much and
purge themselves. At such times it is
best to withhold it until normal condi-
tions are restored. Where stock have
salt as often as they desire, it tends to
keep them more quiet, for when they
have an appetite which cannot be sat-
isfed they inevitably become restless,
I think the plan of having salt Stands
is equally good for sheep, but must
be practiced with care. Sheep are
ravenous eaters of salt and will over
eat if allowed. By giving a little
each day they will soon adapt them
selves to the plan. Then they may
have free access to salt and not
abuse the privilege. 1t is common
for farmers to neglect sailing their
horses. While horses crave salt less
than cattle or sheep, it is nevertheless
quite essential to their health. It
need not be given them so often:
once in ten days or even two weeks is
usually sufficient. ..r-
