COSTLY APARTMENTS.

The London Chronicle says: The world is at peace, but expenditure on implements of war is increasing at such a reckless pace that the nations will soon be bled white in order to satisfy the ravenous maw of clamor- threatens to become more burdensome than war. All the nations are bitten with the mania for lavish expendl- ture on armaments. In fifteen years British naval expenditure has advo- cated from 926,000,O0O to E46,309,- 900. This year it will probably reach G5O,000,000 and we may see another penny added to the income tax. Con- siderable as has been the increase in our expenditure, it is modest when compared with that of the chief con- tinental countries. Germany, con- fronted with a demand for an addi- tional G52,OOOOO0, has been compell- ed to impose a tax on capital. France is faced with deficit this year of E31,760,O00, with further prospect that an additional 924,000,000 will have to be provided for in subsequent years. Italy, which cannot find mon ey for the elementary education of her own people, has D. inc foolish ad- venture of the Tripo1itan war added permanently nearly e10,000,OO0 to her annual national expenditure, and is embarking on an ambitious naval pro- gram. Russia is spending vast sums in the rebuilding of her navy, an her army on a peace footing has now reached the gigantic figure of 100000 men. By strange paradox all tre nations who are participating in this orgy of military extravaganza loudly profess their love of peace. Never has Europe been more militar,st or less warlike.
 Unless this prodigality is checked nothing can avert cataclysm that may submerge civilization. We ut terly despair of that check coming from statesmen whether at home or abroad. Alas There is no longer a Gladstone. The check can only come from the peoples consciousness of it's power. Where aristocracies and plu- tocracies have signally failed democ- racy may yet succeed May it's reign soon dawn!

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 1S.-Mid- night is to be the deadline for re specta bility in Indianapolis. Such was the order issued yesterday by Samuel Perrott, superintendent of police. Any persons found on the streets after midnight are to be regarded as sus- picious characters until they prove their responsibility.
 All pedestrians outside of the night life in the heart of tue city found on the streets after midnight are to be stopped by the patrolmen and ques- toned. Unless satisfactory replies are made the pedestrians are to be searched, and if the search produces nothing in the way of identification more satisfactory than the replies, or if any weapons or suspicious articles are found, the pedestrians are to be arrested. The order is said to be the result of a number of robberies and the efforts to rid the city of suspic- ious characters.

 Tribe Tn London,

Fate of Hare, the Last of His Odious
 Tribe In London.
 The skeleton of the last of the body snatchers treasured in Kings college hospital recalls that there must be Londoners still living who remember Hare, who, with his accomplice, Burke, first substituted murder for resurrect- ing corpses in order to supply subjects for the dissecting rooms. Burke, whose method of smothering the victims gave his name as a new verb to the lan- guage, was hanged on the testimony of his accomplice. for Hare turned queens evidence and was released.
 Forty years or so ago Hare was we'll known figure in London streets. for Sergeant Ballantine in his Life describes him as one of the most per sistent blind beggars on the streets about 1870 Few people recognized the cold blooded murderer in the middle aged stout man. clad in a white smock and led about by dog His blindness he owed to the fact that on leaving prison Hare found work in some lime kilns. The laborers discovered his his tory and threw him into a pit of lime It was terrible vengeance, for it de, stroyed his eyesight. And as it is not fifty years since he was a striking fig ure in London streets some people should recall him.-London Spectator.

FOE OF THE FLYING FISH.
Albaeore Actually Jump Out of the
 Water to Catch Them.


 Water to Catch Them.
 The home of the flying fish is along the path of the north Atlantic trade winds. In Memories of the Sea" Ad- miral Fitzgerald of the English navy says that in sailing down the trades you find the sea fairly alive with these fish, which are relentlessly pursued by the albacore, the largest of the mack erel family.
 From my commanding position at the end of the jib boom I could look straight down on the strange scene. There was shoal of some dozen al- bacore swimming along ahead of the ship. Sometimes one or two of them would dart off on either bow or right ahead for thirty or forty yards and then drop back again until they were straight under where I was sitting. The ship was going about seven knots. As it sailed along the flying fish would rise out of the water before it, spread their wings and soar away to the right or left. Often could see exactly what happened. As the flying fish rose one of the albacore darted off in pursuit and kept almost underneath him until he dropped into the water again; then there was a splash like the rise of a salmon. and the flying fish flew no more.
 But the albacore did not always wait for the flying fish to touch the water. On several occasions I saw them &C., tually take their prey in the air by making huge jump out of the water.
