he claimed ihat wore granted n ito

tho O'Ay at Paris to an American reg
istry. That Is to say, for each foregn
built vawfl given an American reg.stry
a vowel of ecjuai or greater ton
nage. speed and capacity would be
built in on American shipyard.
The Ph ladelpnt i Record thinks there
should be no necessity for any strong
effort to poos to partial* n measure for
the enoourigeoiot of tbu country's
morctumt marme. What waa good for
the InteimKona. Navlgatbyn Company
In tbe admission of foto ga ressds to
Amnrloan registry on oertaln condition,
ought to bo go jJ for an a usual'.an 1 no,
or for a Uno to any. other region of tho
globe. Under the enuring policy of
protection the share of the Un ted
State* in the carrying trade to Austra
lasia has dwindled to next to nothing,
whilst the dhcires of France, Germany
and Belgium In the irausporlafon to
tliat region are steadily Increasing. Of
tho three American, ships belonging to
tho OTeulal Uno ‘than formerly ran
from San Fraawlsoo to Sydney one has
been withdrawn, and Ihe remaining two
travel at a speed of but uwelvo knots
nn hour. Iu this condition U Is Am
ply out of tho question fur this country
to hold Its own with the stv'ft steamers
of other nations in the uocan carrying
trade. Anything that would tend.there-
fore, to improve these conditions slfbuld
be heartily welcomed. Instead of en
countermg chbrllah opposition.
But in addition to tlm proposed meas
ure In behalf of au Australian stemm-
«h p Co*, there is no valid reason, says
the Record, why an American registry
should not lie given to all ocean-going
ships owned by Amer'can ultlsens ihat
are mow afloat. The admission of these
ship* to no Amerme registry would
not cause one rthtp the less to bo built
In American shipyards Acccrd'ng to
tlM elhd.el st.1tlef.c3 of registration,
too tonnago of the United States In Its
(ksnihikii-ryltw trade Is not more than
20 per cent, of tho whole. But If all
die ships un tho blgn seas owned by
American o tlzcn* should bo covered
by tho stare and atr p*s the proportion
of tke country’s tonnage would prove
to bo double as great. Low as la tlie
country's posMIoo imong mm.time na
tions, it Is made still more hum Hating
by a false system of rog.smttlon which
compels Americans to put their float ng
property under tho protect lei of for-
e'.gti flag* or transfer it to foreign mer
chant.
But Uic passage at tho Flthlxa free
alt'.p b ll, which, is atvaUIng cons.dcta-
tloa (u congress, would give an Ami-r
oan retr.atry not only to all American
owned ships lu ihe oc->m trado now In

Ycsferdny tbo Telegiupb, In- com-
m-xnr.ng upon ilro niippaintmeut of
Jii-L' 11"-' , whs uufonuuase in using
hugiuig.- ifrat seemed to impute a bad
motive to those member* of ibe bar
who opposed him. la isiying that this
opposition was due to the fact that
too Judge “had bean strict Id bU mb
Ings in regaril to tbo ounduot of altor-
nrp’s wlio bad case* in his court,” noth
ing more was meant than that, in tbo
opinion of some members of tho bar.
Judge Rous had been unreasonably
strict In enforcing the rules of dtcornm
la his oourt. ‘TJecorunt" wpuld have
been a better word than -conduci.'
Wo oro ui-iircil. however, that even If
tho Telegraph's words of yesterday bo
undorsiood In this sense they do Judge
Ross’ opponents an Injustice, i s their
oppoeiitfoa was based oa what they re
gard ns a lack of Judlcxat temperament
on bis part. The Teli-g.itph has a high
epJUon of the gentleman who make up
tho Slooon bar, and will not w lllugly
do fliem Injustice. U did not intend to
do so in to.* instance.

Tho passengers on the British mall
steamer Victoria In Rio harbor were Im
patiently waiting for the quarantine offi
cers to finish inspecting the ship.
They were tired of the sea and were
anxious to seek more comfortable quarters
in the city.
Madame was tbe only passenger who
did not fret and worry over the delay. She
was seated on deck, where she had a good
view of Rio.
She waB to sing at the epera house that
night, and her manager’s agent had en
gaged for her in advance a suit of rooms
at tho best hotel. |
So madame waited patiently and langh-
edand jested with the young men who
had been her companions on tbe voyage,
and who had sought her for a farewell
chat.
She was a beautiful woman, this fair
French queen of the opera. Her golden
hair, brown eyes, faultless features and
dazzling complexion mado the men go
wild, and It was impossible to watch her
graceful movements without discovering
that her form had that ideal perfection of
which aoulptora dream.
“A glass of wine, Marie,*” said ma-
damo to her maid.
The young woman brought It in a mo
ment, and her mistress leisurely sipped it,
talking in her sparkling way to her ad
mirers all the while.
Just then .there was an uproar at the
other end of the steamer, and cries of ter
ror and alarm were heard.
“A man overboard!”
Madame laughed when she heard the
cry.
“Fortunate fellow,** she exclaimed. “It
would be better to jump into the water
and swim ashore than stay in this floating
prison another day.”
The captain of the Victoria came for
ward, with the ship's doctor. The faoes
of the two wore a troubled expression,
and it was evident that they had news to
oommpnicato.
“Madame,” said the captain, “It is my
painful duty to Inform you that a terrible
accident has just oocurred. Your hus
band”—
“Mon Dleul” criedmadame. “Whathas
happened to him?*!
The captain was unable to proceed, and
tears stood in his eyes.
“In some way your husband fell over
board, * ’ said tho doctor.
“But he is a good swimmer,** inter
rupted madame.
“Alas,” replied tho doctor, “before a
boat oould be lowerod the man eating
shark which has followed us for the past
two days seized him and dragged him
down.”
“Mercy I” screamed the horrified wom
an. “Do you moan to say my husband is
dead?”
“Yes, dead,*’ answered the captain,
“swallowed by a shark.”
Madame leaned back in her chair, but
she had not fainted, as the bystanders at
first supposed.
Her eyes had a peculiar stare, and her
hands move nervously.
“Try to bare it bravely, madams,” said
her manager in a sympathetic tone.
“I cannot., I cannot,” sobbed madame.
“I am utterly ruined. He had all my dia
monds in a leather bag In htf pocket.
They cost $100,000, and their loss leaves
me a pauper. Ob, 1 shall go mod!”
“Madame Is mistaken,” said the maid,
drawing tho leather tag from her bosom.
“Monsieur gave me tho diamonds an hour
ago and asked me to hidotuem until after
th«« custom house officers left the ship.”
“Then I am saved,” madame said, with
a half smile. “A glass of wine, Marie.”
The stimulant made her completely her
self a^nin, and she called her manager.
“I shall sing tonight”
“Good!" ojaculated the manager. “Bot
what will people say?” *
“Who carta? L* i t them attend to their
own buslnoss. If there had to bo a funeral,
it would bo different, but this affair is so
peculiar that I do not feel llko wearing
mourning. The less said about it tbo bet
tor, especially in the newspapers. I should
feel disgraced if people pointed mo out as
tho widow of a man who had been swal
lowed by a shark.”
“I can appreciate your feelings, "replied
the ruanage-r, “but I have just beard that
a sailor shot the shark only a moment ago,
so there will bo a funeral.’*
“Impossible!” shouted marfApy, “Do
you expect mo to follow a dead shark as a
mourner? Where would you bury the
thing? No cemetery would receive my
husband’s body with a big fish for ita
oaaket.”
“The situation is embarrassing,” ad
mitted the manager, “and you are doubt
less right, but what shall we do with tho
shark?"
“Get the captain to sink it.”
Tho manager hunted up the captain
and told him what ruadame had said.
At first the captain was undecided, but
finally he ordered the sailors to chain a
lot of old iron and lead to tho shark, and
burdened with this weight it sank rapidly
to the bottom of the sea.
“A glass of wine, Mario.” said madamo
when she heard tho manager's report.
The quarantine and custom houso offi
cers occupied the next two hours, and
then madamo and her baggage were per
mitted to land.
That night the opera house was crowd
ed, and the famous French singer was at
her best. Tho audience was wild with en
thusiasm, and everybody raved over ma-
dame's beauty, her voice, her costume and
her diamonds.
“If your husband had only lived to en
joy your triumph tonight,” said the man
ager after the performance.
“Tho dear, good man," murmured
madamo. “I shall never forget his kind
ness in thinking of my diamonds before
he fell overboard, and let me thank you
again for attending to my wishes. It.
would have made me too ridiculous, you
know, if I had put on a black dress and
veil nnd followed a big, ugly fish to a
funeral.”
“I agreo with you,*’responded the man
ager, “But can I servo you In any way
now?’*
“Yes; tell Marie to bring me a glass of
wine.”
Later that night the manager laughed
aloud in tho solitude of his room at tho
hotel.
“Hurrah for madame!” he cried, clap
ping his hands together. “What a wom
an! What a woman I’’—Wallace P. Reed
