the “Black Napoleon.” not Ion;? ago
seized a United States vessel, thtABay-
tian Republic, on the plea tliat ah* was a
blockade runner. Tills led to orders from
the United States navy department for
Admiral Luce to proceed to Hayti and
retake the seized vessel, but whether the
orders will be earned out depends upon
future developments in the case. The
United States corvette Galena was at
once prepared to sail.
The Galena is in llrst rate order, and
made hor preparations at tho Brooklyn
navy yard. Now York. The Galena car
ries a pennant In tho shape of a small
white flag with a red ball in the center.
It is the gunnery pennant, carried hy
tho ship which has shown tho liest
marksmanship in great gun battery
practice in tho North Atlantic squadron.
Tho crew of the corvette have won the
trophy four times out of live. Another
notable feature of the Galena is a won
derful goat which always cruises with
the ship. Whenever tile marines or the
sailors go ashore Billy goes with them.
In case a landing should be r.iedo at
Port-au-Prince the goat will doubtless
enter the city with his comrades.
It is expected that other war ships will
follow the Galena—tho Richmond and
the Yantic. Others may go later on.
The Haitians are now in tho midst of
revolution, and it is essential that Amer
ican interests should lie looked after.
The fleet that is expected to go to Hayti
is considered sufficient to cope with the
Haytian navy. If tho‘intention is car
ried out and the liny tian Republic recov
ered, it is supposed that this will cause
the overthrow of Gen. Legitime.

what could lie moro delightful for Uncle

prospect of a jolly scrimmage and tho

drawback to the pleasurable anticipa

Opinions of Several Eminent Frenchmen
on Women’s Training.
The editor of the Parisian monthly
review, L’Enseignement Secondairo
des Jeunes Filles, has lately elicited
some interesting expressions of opin
ion from his compatriots on the move
ment “which is now leading to the edu
cation of women for the professions.
M. Carnot, the father of the presi
dent of the French Republic, writes:
“I regret to find the words, ‘without
any profession,’ attached to nearly ail
names of women in civil records.
This seems to me not merely an ad
mission of incapability, but a renun
ciation of personal independence. If
I were a woman, I should feel proud
of doing away with such a stigma.

fession oujriit to inspire its owner with

known le ’ice who were happy and
proud to t nd the means of existence
in a talent, cultivated to form a pleas
ant occupation. Every one should
practice vjrae work, intellectual or
manual, only to icarn how to employ
his time usefully. I address myself
to both sexes; women liuvc triumplied
already in certain examinations.
When their education is completed,
they will have done much to glorify
work.”
M. Leon Say, senator, member of
tho academy, ex-minister, speaker of
the senate, when tho law about tho in
struction of young girls was under
discussiou, said: “Women show them
selves superior to men in all kinds of
offices; men can only keep up with
them when cultivating themselves
more, when lifting and educating
thorasel ves to a higher standard- You
will say, this is the thought of an
economist. You may be right, but it
is not tho less true. Will net the con
sequences be good?”
M. Emil Deschanel, senator, ex
deputy, professor at the College of
France, where bis lectures are always
crowded with ladies, wrote to the
editor: “My dear Camille See—It will
always remain an honor for you to
bavo brought in and sustained this
bill on tho higher education of girls.
Every man oujjht to applaud it, if
only from a selfish point of view.
Tho more a woman’s mind is culti
vated, tho happier tlio men will bo.
But a great number of the latter,
without confessing the truth, secretly
want to keep women in intellectual
inferiority, hoping to rule over them.
It i3 selfishness that understands ‘its
own advantage badly, for insufficient
instruction only creates silly com
panions. Men who think themselves
so wonderfully strong certainly show
an excessive, though unconscious
modesty. For in wishing uneducated
—meaning disarmed—women, they
simply admit that, with equal weap
ons, they would know themselves
conquered, even before the strife.”

Unlit After n Forty Year*’ Fight.
One of the longest inter-town fights
ever known in Maine was that over the
construction of the bridgo across the 8e-
basticook river, at PelToma Point, be
tween the towns of Pittsfield aiul De
troit. Tho movement for the building
of the bridgo began in 1848. The former
town wauted it, tho latter town opposed
it. Tlie light went on, year after year.
Every board * of county commissioners
was drawn into it. Not until 1888, when
the bridge was built, was the war ended.

The details given in the papers of
(ho collapse of tho mouth of the Biwa
tunnel aro rather interesting. It was
only tho first forty yards of tne tunnel
that had not had tho roof bricked, and
it was this forty yards which fell in.
Tho sixty-five men in the tunnel, who
had a little food aud a little oil for two
lamps, set to work to dig themselves
out, while a largo force outside set to
work to dig a way in. But though
tlio voices of tho men inside were
heard, it bccamo so difficult to make
way in tho sandy soil that the men
on .side begau to consider the advisa
bility of ubandoniug tho work and
sinking a shaft from tho tom How
ever, a hole about two iiicnes wide
was made right through, and to the
surprise of theso outsido suddenly a
man crawled through iL and was fol
lowed by tho rest of the sixty-five.
Those inside had heard the men out
side discussing tho question of aban
doning tho work, and this had made
them desperate, and they succeeded in
enlarging tho hole enough to crawl
through. None of them suffered seri
ously from the imprisonmeuL and
they were doubtless quite compen

A Successful Life.
M. Antoine de Choudeus, the music
publisher, who mado tho fortuue of
his firm by Gounod’s “FausL” died iu
his sixty-third year. Although he was
the grandson of Pacini—Rossini’s pub
lisher—M. do Choudeus began life in
a very humble capacity. Ho was a
night clerk in the postofiice, and was
but little known in the musical world
until 1859; when M. Carvalho induced
him to buy the score of “FausL
which had already been produced at
the Opera. M. Gounod himself was
at that time struggling with adversity,
but the remarkable success of his opera
soon brought fame to its composer and
fortune to its publisher. After this

his celebrated house on the Boulevards

planted with the rows eight feet apart,
and he reports that the cotton in this

By local applicstion, as they can

caused by an inflamed condition of
the mucus lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube gets in
flamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it
is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflamaticu
can be taken out and this tube re

cases out of ten are caused by ca

Gentlemen:—A sense of gratitude
and the desire to render a service to the
public impel me to make the f blowing
statements:
My college career, at New Hr ven, was
interrupted by a severe cold .vhioh so
enfeebled me that, for ten yeais, I had a
hard struggle for life. Hemorrhage
from the bronchial passages was tho
result of almost every fresh exposure.
For yearn I was under treatment of the
ablest practitioners without avail. At
last I learned of
Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral,
which I nsed ( moderately and in small
doses) at the first recurrence of a cohl
or auy chest difficulty, and from which
I invariably found relief. This was
over 23 years ago. With all sorts of
exposure, in all sorts ot climates, I have
never, to this day, had auy cold nor
any affection of the throat or lungs
which did not yield to Ayke’s Cherry
Pectoral within 24 hours.
Of courso I have never allowed my-
■elf to be without this remedy in all my
voyages and travels. Under my own
observation, it has given relief to vast
numbers of persons; while in acute cases

Salt Rheum
The agonies of those who suffer from severs
salt rheum nro indescribable. The cleansing,
healing, purifying Influences of Hood’s Sarsa
parilla aro unequalled by any other medicine.
“ I take pleasure in recommending Hood's
Sarsaparilla, for It has done wonders for me. -
I had salt rheum very severely, affecting me
over nearly my entire body. Only those wbo
have suffered from this disease in its worst
form can imagine the extent of my affliction.
I tried many medicines, but failed to receive
benefit until I took Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
Then the disease began to subside, the
Agonizing Itch and Pain
disappeared, and now I am entirely free from
the disease. My hibod seems to be thor
oughly purified, and my general health is
greatly benefited.” Lyman Allen, Sexton
N. E. Church, North Chicago, HL
“ My son had salt rheum on bis hands and
the calves ot his legs, so bad that they would
crack open and bleed. He took Hood’s Sar
saparilla and is entirely cured.” J. B. Stan
ton. Mt. Vernon, Ohio.
From 108 to 185
“I was seriously troubled with salt rheum
for three years, and receiving no benefit from
medical treatment I decided to try Hood’t
Sarsaparilla. 1 am now entirely cared of salt
rheum; my weigh! has increased from KB lbs.
to 136.” Mrs. Alice Smith. Stamford, conn.
If yon suffer from salt rlicum, or :tny blood
disease, try Hoad’s Sarsaparilla. It has cured
many others, and will core you.
