painted them on this place. As we
went up the river 1t grew broader
and quieter and the bank was lined
with the most luxuriant tropical
vegetation. As we went down the
river we found surprise awaited US.
We thought we had seen the main
part Of the cataract but the second
part Of the river stretched out falling
over that immense cataract. Just
how wide the fall was ! cannot say,
but we walked along on the opposite
bank for nearly mile, and more and
more Of the falls came into view. Al
though we were on level with the
top Of the falls and the water fell
nearly 400 feet the spray arose far
above our heads and often was SO
dense as to obscure the fall Of the
water altogether. The way finally
became SO damp ard muSty that we
returned without reaching the end Of
the waterfall.

somewhat excited and ran and mo-

The highest suspension bridge In
the world has lately been built across
the cataract. We hope to cross over
tomorrow but are not certain yet
whether an engine will come over.

away from here today so we TOOK
some lunch and took one OF the boys
with us and came out to see the falls
about mile from the station.
Now while / write we are in sight
Of the grandest cataract OF the world
viz: This mighty Victoria Falls in
the Zambezi River, discovered by
Livingston about the middle OF last
century, but until the past two or
three years little was seen or heard
aboutit. The falls completely beggar
description. Just where the water
falls the river is divided by q pre-
cipitous island into two parts. Inc
part nearest where we are sitting
Is carried down by a succession OF
waterfalls until 1t makes one mighty
plunge into the chasm below. The
other part Of the river is carried over
an awful precipice and falls nearly
200 feet into the gorge below. There
the two unite and flow off together.
The rocky precipice on al sides are
covered with MOSES Of the most deli
cate shades and ferns Of all kinds
shades and sizes, while the water IL
dashed into spray which rises high
above the highest banks, and rain
bows in abundance play over the
chasm. As we came into sight Of
this wonderful scene, we felt thai

TIE AMERICAN WOMAN.

Mrs. Craigie, whose pen name is John
Oliver Hobbies. Iectured to the National
Liberal society in England recently on
what she had observed in America
during a late visit on this side. Mrs.
Craigie is American born, but has
spent a good part of her life in Eng
land. She declared there were few
men in Chicago and New York who
we're content TO live in idleness. no
matter what their means or the temp
tation to useless leisure. American
men as d rule. she said. are not con-
tent TO be without occupation; and
even the richest of them die oftener
from overwork and worry than from
the rust of idle dissipation.
Commenting on the American type
which has developed by the admixture
of races and the environment of the
new world, she observes:
The temperament Of the American
people is of the past age, their faces
and features belong to another period.
They suggest the old masters
have been the originals of portraits Of
Rembrandt or Jan Steen; girls with
types of countenances associated with
the French before the revolution. with
the same combination of delicacy, vi
vacity and frailty. Among modern
Europeans these types are very rare.
Perhaps the most interesting of the
products Of America is its women.
While they take little or no interest
in political affairs. while they seldom
if ever show the least interest in the
business or professional work of their
male relatives, they show an extraor-
binary activity in club life and in or
CARNATIONS of every description, phi
Ianthropic. social and educational.
America, the combination of so
many races, has produced a woman
having something in common with all
the races and which still remains

ADJUSTMENTS FOR TO-DAY.
THE METALS.
MAKING THE GANG soUiRM.

From the way they wiggle, it is evil
dent the Americans have heard
from the people on their $4,000 dona-
ton to Contractor Moran. Evade and
squirm and dodge as they may. they
are unable TO get away from the cold
fact that the $4,000 grab was useless,
was made possible only by giving con-
troll of the city to Davis, Mulvey and
Black, and has brought oown condem-
nation from the very men who sup
ported the American" party most ar
IDENTIFY in the belief that it would ''re-
form" the city administration and re-
duce the expense of city government
10 the taxpayer.
What is the record? Hardly a ses-
sion of the council has passed without
a grab of some sort, ranging from
petty larceny TO wholesale robbery of
the treasury Nearly every depart
ment has fattened its payroll by the
addition of employees and increase of
salaries; and the appointments have
been a guarantee of incompetent work
and unnecessary expense. The fire de-
Partment has been demOralized and
tn police department made a nest of
cheap politicians. The street depart
ment has given a continuous exhibit
ton of neglected duty and indifference
10 public needs. The health depart
meut with an Increased staff has
shown no disposition to do business in
a bUsiness-like way, and its chiefs
have made their official duties a minor
consideration compared with personal
convenience The engineering depart
ment has been arrangd to please the
son of councilman and punish the
men who considered him incompetent
for responsible public employ.
To crown the record, the city engi-
neer aided by a lightweight president
of the board of public works, and three
councilmen who carry no weight in
other affairs. has succeeded in secur-
ing $4,000 for his friend, Contractor
Moran, at public expense.
The job is so paIpable, the circum-
stances surrounding it so rotten, that
even the rank and file of the Amer
lean" party have rebeIled, to say moth
ing of the Indignation generally
aroused by this plain perversion of
public funds for an individuals bene-
fit. No wonder the grabsters are
squirting.

cPEAKER cANNoN's LAMENT.

There's something amusing in the
way Uncle Joe Cannon takes the sem
ates action on the statehood bill and
Philippine tariff bill Hear him; DO
they Cthe senate leaders, think the
house was born in the wood to be
scared by an owI?'' Also. Bre'r Jim"
Watson of Indiana wants to know if
the house will stand the treatment it
has received at the hands Of the senate.
Being a long way from Washington,
possibly the situation may not be Wis
ible clearly; but we opine the house
will do what it can-and that is mighty
little. Under the system established
by the Republican party, members of
the house have about as much voice in
the government as a lot Of little school
boys. They do what they are told to
do by the speaker, and do it when and
how he pleases. If he mods they snore
and when he takes snuff they sneeze.
It is only natural, under the regime
now in vogue, that the action of the
house should be regarded with con-
tempt or entirely ignored by the SEN
ate. There is no discussion in the house
worth considering seriously; the mi
nority is choked off and the majority
dominated by the rules committee.
With all the autocratiC power of a car
and the contempt for others opinions
which an autocrat can feel, Uncle Joe
has so ruled his subjects that neither
the country. the senate nor the mem
bers of the house themselves can have
much respect for il. And until it once
more assumes its proper prerogatives
and presumes to do little thinking on
its own account, it will be scared by
the boot of an owl" slapped in the face
by the senate and kicked out biennial
ly by a disguised people-as it ought
to be.
To return to the main question: To
date. the house has done nothing which
degree Of pride or pleasure. 1t passed
the Philippine tariff bill without proper
discussion, and tried to ruin the most
important new agricultural industry Of
the west. The senate killed the bill
Then the house passed the joint state
hood bill under the speakers lash and
without even a chance to vote on sep
aration Of the territories The senate
amended the bill and sent it back. In
both cases the senate has the sentiment
doesn't like it, the west does.

something which can only be defined
as American"
Part of this description may be ac-
cepted as accurate, but if Mrs. Craigie
had come further west she would have
noted that American women take a
keen interest in politics and public
affairs, and their interest has a prac-
teal weight not to be overlooked by
the candidate for public office or the
incumbent of political place. Her be-
lief that the American woman takes
comparatively little interest in her
husbands business affairs is probably
true so far as it applies to the large
majority. The French woman, for
instance, knows infinitely more of her
husbands business than most Ameri-
can women know Of such things; and
the comparison is not altogether to the
advantage Of the cis-Atlantic sister.
But when It comes down to real
comparisons, Mrs. Craigie comedies
the charm, the intellectual acuteness,
the unfailing attractiveness of the
American girl in terms which every
American man viii indorse without
qualifications. She has the keenness
Of the Celt, the substantial, unfeaTing,
frank good sense of the Anglo-Saxon,
the good taste of the Gaul and the do
nestle skill of the Teuton Added to
these, she has a sense of humor pc
culiarly American, which is the spice
of life, the saving grace in trial, the
very SAVIOR of existence.
