EnuIand on tg,e Sea

Last month new high record was established in the import trade of the British Isles. The official value of the merchandise brought into the kingdom was about $300,000, 900, or 61,60S, ,000 pounds sterling. The exports of Brit 1sh products were only a little more than one-half as great amounting to about $165, 1000, 00O.
 The enormous British imports, a country of perhaps 44,O00, 900 inhabit- ants more than doubling the imports of the United States with 99,00O, 900 people, indicate the complete depend- ence of the British nation upon it's sea borne commerce. The imports of the British Isles include a large part Of the food of the country and the raw material-except fuel-for it's greatest manufacturing industries. With ship traffic cut off or seriously interrupt- ed, the United Kingdom would quick ly face absolute starvation and many millions of it's working classes would find their occupation gone and abso- lutely no means at hand for earning a dollar a week. It would be difficult to imagine a nation in state of more complete industrial and financial col lapse than that which Great Britain would surely experience as soon as the sea became wholly or in large part closed to British shipping and British trade.-Cleveland Leader.

Plea for the Old Man.

We are glad to see numerous pro- tests in the press against the way in which the old man has been ignored. The many virtues and good qualities of the mother have been celebrated both in poetry and prose, in connection with the lives of our great men.
 This is as 1t should be. Perish the wretch who would blot out a line of this praise. But in remembering the mother, why forget the father, better known as the old man? It is true the old man is not always a person of ideal physical beauty. You do not feel like writing sonnets about him; and even q rondeau would be out of place. in celebrating his homely vir- tues.
 But he toiled to feed and cIothe the future great man. perhaps sat up at night with him in his sickness. And in a multitude of ways he denied him. self the pleasure and comforts of life in order to give the young man chance.

sso PENSION
Frscrred for Francis Burroughs-Mrs.
 Burroughs May Benefit by New Act.

Col. c. A. Potter has received the announcement from Congressman E.. w. Higgins that the application, made some time ago, for pension of $50 a month for Francis Burroughs has been allowed, the special bill passing the house this week. Congressman Higgins will now try to put through another special bill to secure a wid- ow's pension for Mrs. Burroughs.
 Congressman Higgins sents with the announcement a copy of H. R. 13S39, introduced by him during the present month, which provides that any off eer or enlisted man who served ninety days or more in the army or navy during the civil war and who was hon. orably discharged and has died leav- ing a widow who has continuously lived with him from the date of the marriage to the date of his death, without other means of support than her daily labor, or minor children un- der the age of 16 years, such widow upon proof of her husbands death and of her having lived with mi continu- ously. without proving his death to have been the result of his army serv- ice, be placed on the pension roll from the date of the application thereof un- der this act at the rate of six dollars a month during her widowhood and also shall be paid two dollars a month for each child under 16 years of age The act also provides that in the case of the death or remarriage of the wid- ow leaving a child under 16 that such pension shall be paid to such child until it reaches the age of 16. Am other provision of the act is that a minor child insane or idiotic or other wise permanently helpless shall con tinue to receive the pension during the period of disability. The bill applies only to widows married before Janu- ary 1, 1900.
