i ' # Tbe United States can’t undertake
the Quixotic purpose of bringing all
the barbarous people in the world
and er the pale of civilisation by con*
quest and our duty in this regard
would ho no stronger io the Philippine
Islands than it is io Central Africa.
It is found that the X-ray shines
through a fox terrier as if bo were a
Chineee paper lantern. Tbe experi-
H meat has just been tried on an animal
of thio species which had swallowed a
diamond ring, the trinket appearing
twinkling io hie mids'.-—visable ae a
fly io amber or a gold fish io a glass
globe. All tbe dog family will do
wisely to lay the lesson to heart and
look sharp to what they swallow
ABL Petersburg journal says that
the Csar has declared bis intention of
making a long visit in Paris during
the World’s Exposition there io 1900.
A special envoy is said already to
have been sent to find a commodious
palace lor tbe august guest's occupa
tion. Several are eaid to have been
offered but found not ruilable. It is
hinted that Nicholas 11, even has a
plan to build himself a palace in Paris,
to occupy on visits that be intends to
make somewhat frequently in tbe
future.
Here is what Peter Cooper, who
died worth many millions, said of a
newspaper: "In all tbe towns where
a newspaper is published every mao
should advertise in it if nothing
more than a card stating hie name
and the business he is in. It does not
only P*y the advertiser, but it lets
people at a distance know tbe town in
* which you reside is a prosperous com*
munily of business men. As tbe seed
is sown co the seed recompenses.
Never pull down your sign while you
expect to do business.”
Wait until we get Porto Rico, then
what a winter town wo will have, and
all under the protection of our flag.
Go south, to the Florida resorts, tbe
finest in tbe world, cross to Havana
and thence by sea to Santiago. When
you have tired of tbe oldest town on
tbe western hemisphere, run over to
San Joao and spend a week on an
island not lees interesting than tbe
Bahamas. Before many yean this
will be a common and an inexpensive
trip, made in American steamers aS
laxarioos as the best ocean liners.

tfli tbe cables took tbe weight. Il as j
ecad there was a report like a pistol I
shot, followed by a swaying which
very naturally alarmed those on the
bridge at the time. Tbe expansion of
the acetal doe to tbe excessive boat, ;
together with the enuraai weight of
tbe ears, paaseugors and pedestrians '
weoamaned by the blockade of traffic, '
is said to have caused tbe trouble. Tbe t
