The day I crossed the channel and landed in England Admiral DWV p*id a fr*sh tribute to British friend* hip- He said, and was in a posi jicn to '•'new whereof he spoke, that Ad m>rai Seymour, 11.

My flrsi impreeslons w moderately disappointing. The way of the people confused me. Business and social methods were different from what I had known in the states. American Mends in responsible positions invariably were frock coats and tall hats, and their cordiality had anew and jarring dignity. One near and dear friend hustled me out of hi? office and into a nearby hat shop, ard Hi a twinkling had me in a silk hat. He 'Sid my American hat was not cor rect for London. And then he told me a story of distinctions in dress that grated harsh y on my democratic sensibilities. He agio my tall hat and frock coat would pa?s me anywhere. I .soon proved him wrong 1 called on an English business ms i wlt'i a letter of introduction, and was invited to cull again on Wednesday of r < following week The man was in his office bur having had no notice of my in tended call, and having no engagement with me was not bound by commercial eriq lfttte to save me the trouble of in other trip. He presumably thought that in naming a clay and hour when he would eee me he wa doing all that do nwrnled. I soon learned that in this court \ you notify a person you have a letter to present. The person notifies you when i may be presented, and you notify the person vou will arrive at the proper time. This apparent indirection offended me, and I mentally resented it. In America one • ails with his letter, is re ceived at tho earliest possible moment, and what should he done is done at once. This letter incident should not have disturbed me. There was no r ison why the British should not have their individual way of meeting: strangers, e en though my ancestors had suffered from British tyranny in 1776. You will rtjiienrber that the British were on suffer ance with me. What is born in the flesh is hred in the bone. I still suspected Her Majesty's subjects. Smile if you like, for >ou smile with me. Inside of two weeks ! saw u.at in a city of several millions, Jhi plan of meeting people according to previous written engagement was desira ble. if not absolutely necessary. So 1 nought another flaw. There came a drawing room. The Queen was to receive. The function was in part public. People on the street could the presented before and after the eremony. The popular parctice was to to Mall, look on the favored ladies, <r*d hear others talk them over. It re vohed me, but I fell in line. The scene brilliant and beautiful, and seemed appropriate—for England. It was a rev elation to me—not the gay equipages, the men in livery, and. last, though not least, the ladies in decollete gowns, but the re spectful admiration of the spectators and he absence of envious comment. The thousands, mainly women and children, who pressed to the road and scanned the line made no invidious remarks, but act ually showed pride in the display. I went to file Mall to frown on this ostentatious Fhow of wealth and station. I found no 'ane for frowning, and came back think ing. 1 aimed to treat the British with equal and exact justice. Asa good American from a land of majority rule, I naturally 'ought majority views. What was in the hearts of fhe people? What did the bread-winners think? That was what I wanted to know, in justice to my revolu tionary ancestors and to my countrymen ef to-day. Were the millions forming the great bulk of the British nation fairly we!! satisfied with their social and politf ■'*l lot? Did they favor their present form of government from choice, force of habit, or necessity? All my questions w*re easily and promptly answered. I saw the Quen happily welcomed by the necpl*, ah of one mind. I saw the Brit ish victories celebrated by the people, nil ef one mind; and I shw, T had almot •■id as never before, the cohesive strength of a united community. I saw ’bat a* to form of government the Rrit rh people were one. and as to policy the difference of opinion was more apparent than real.

The American isolation of former years, finally made impossible by the growth of steam and electricity, is no longer a factor in our diplomatic problem. To-dav America is not only in the world, but of it. Its new' position, acquired through no fault of its own, carries responsibilities never re alized, and therefore never considered, by the patriots who originally marked out our course. When that course was mark ed we were fresh from war with Great Britain and angry and distrustful. On oc casions since then the mother country has raised our ire. But the growing impor tance of America and our invasion of com mercial fields hitherto exclusively worked by Europe, have aroused a continental hostility fully equal to that shown Greet Britain. On the other hand, the British have gone out of their way to favor tie, and on many lines the two countries have worked together. That Great Britain and America will grow more and more friend ly and get closer together is as certain as the sun to rise, although, for politi cal rea sons, an official alliance is out of the ques tion. The fair and intelligent American who visits Great Britain and the conti nent invariably draws conclusions favor able to the former. The contrasting con ditions are too plain to escape notice. As a rule, a very general rule, the coin and not the company of the American find favor with the continentals. The ways of the British, though not our ways, are the ways the British are bound to follow. The wise American does not try to change them. As my Americanism cannot be suc cessfully challenged, and ! am better, because broader. American than when 1 left home, my views certainly should count for something. SOI Bit HU RTS OF WE APONS. %re Customarily '‘Called Out Their Names” by Queer Appellation*. From the London Globe. The names of weapons are continually undergoing change. The arquebus gives place to the musket, the musket to the rifle, while “gun,” xvhich was once a gen eric term, is now pretty well restricted to vvettjjons used for purposes of sport and to artillery. The pistol i its earlier form was called a hand-gup; in the course of time the revolver pistol was invented— was, as a matter pf fact, invented and re invented more than once—and when this development was perfected practically all pistols were made on the new system, and revolvers became the every-day term, while “pistol” began to fade out of use. The revolver in Us latest form is one of the handiest, most ropidly tired, and, at fairly short ranges, one of the most ef fective of weapons. In the days of its youth the discharge of a pistol was a mat ter of time and careful attention to de tail. An old book of military tactics, pub lished when Charles 11. was on the throne, gives us no fewer than twenty-five words of command for pistol drill. The warrior had to uncap, draw forth, order, and sink hks weapon before he prepared to fire i:. The next process were to bend and secure the cock, open and prime the pan, shut the pan. and “cast about your pistols, which is to be done against your left thigh, with your muzzle upwards in your bridle hand.” Having got so far, the operator was told to guage his flash, lade the pistol with powder, draw forth and shorten his rammer, “lade with bullet and ram home.” Four more words of com mand withdrew, shortened,. and returned the rammer and recovered the pistol. The pisto-W was now getting to business; he proceeded to fix or order the ham mer. to fre* and bend the cork, to pres ent his pistol, and. finally, to "give tir<\” He was carefully told when firing not to aim directly forward "to your enemy’a horses’ head, but toward the right hand with the look of the pistol upwards." It is only charitable to hoje that no one was hurt as the result of these elaborate man oeuvres. An old name for the kind of heavy pistol or hand-gun which the subject of the drill just described was "dag.” a word of quite unknown derivation. The anony mous author of a ploy of the Elizabethan era makes a character relate how his mas ter Would show me how to hold the Dagge, To draw the Cock, to charge, and set the flint; which is fi further testimony to the elab oration with which the act of tiriiipr the weapon was accomplished. In a proclama tion by Queen Elizabeth of 1575. Her Ma jesty noticed the prevalent habit of car rying arms, and “calling: o mind how unseemly a thing: ii was in so quiet and peaceable n realm jo have men so armed,” ?he proceeded to forbid the carrying “privily or openly any daer or pistol or any other harquehuse gun or such wea pon for tire.” Exception, however, was made in the cases of noblemen and others who could show gool reason for carry ing arms on their travels, if they carried “dag” or “pistolet" opertly in their sad dle bow. From being recognized term, “dag” seems to have dropped into the slang vo cabulary. for In a “Canting: Dictionary” of 1725 it appears as the cant name for a gun. Ft has long since been banished to the limbo of unused words. A much later pistol name—that which heads this cplumn—is now seldom heard. Mr. Jus tice CJlossim. in "Guy Mannering," was reminded by MacGuffog, the thief taker, that ras als “are never without barkers and slashers.” and in “Oliver Twls',** when Mr. Wiliam Sikes and his compan ions tire preparing for the burglary at rhertsev—“barkers for me, Harney,” says Toby Orncklt, nnd Is forthwith hand ed a pair of pistols. “Harking irons” was an earlieV form, in use more than a cen tury ago. hut abbreviation is a favorite process in the manufacture and develop ment of *lang. Another old name for a pistol, not al together extinct, is “bulldog ” Someone In Farquhnr's comedy of “The Constant Couple” remarks: “He whips out his sti letto, and I whips our my bulldog.” and one might safely hack the wlelder of the stiletto if the speaker’s aim wore no bet ter than his grammar. “Bulldog” re minds one of the California “hulldoser,” a fairly expressive name for a heavy pis tol which carries a large-sited bullet. Many attempts were made through a long serbs of yoars. centuries, Indeed, to construct a revolving pistol, or. as ln- THE MORNING NEWS: TEES DAY, JULY 10, 190C1 ventors and others used to phrase it, to invent a gun or pistol which might dis charge several times at only one loading. Mr. Pepys was privileged to sec something of the kind in his day, and repeating pis tols continue*! to be heard of at intervals long after that curious gossip hyj.l disap peared from the face of the earth. But the machinery of these attempts was us ually too complicated or too slow and un certain in its action to be of much prac tical value. It was not until the present century that the problem was effectually solved. The first really useful revolver was that patented by the American, Col. Colt in 1835. on the principle of a single barrel and a rotating cylinder breech worked by the motion of the trigger. With sundry modifications, revolvers of the <’olt pattern have remained in use, and have borne the colonel’s name to this day. The vagaries of nomenclature are curious. Colt’s revolver was known as such for many long years, yet the weapon itseif never became known as a Colt. On the other hand. another revolving “barker” invented by an American gun smith has been familiar as u • derringer" on both sides of the Atlantic, with noth ing to indicate that the name is borrowed from that of the inventor. Bret Harte’s use of the word in his poems and stories of the wiki Western life which Is now practically a thing of the past did much to familiarize the name on this side. In "Dow’s Flat” the hero of the yarn comes to his work at noon, when his continued run of ill-luck has brought him almost to desperation— "With a shove! and pick on his shoulder, and a derringer hid in his breast." H was a derringer bullet, by the way, that killed President Lincoln in the Wash ington theater on that fateful evening in April, 1866. When the assassin. Bcoth, en tered the President’s box be was armed with a small siver-mounted derringer in his right hand and a long double-edged dagger in his left. Both weapons were used.

Some Curious Thing* \hont (lie Struggle in South Vfrlcn. Letter in Westminster Gazette. A s#ill more absurd practice* was that of sometimes attempting to carry off the dead during an engagement. An instance of this was seen at Reitfontein. A cou ple of men of a volunteer regiment were coming across the open ground below the hill under a pretty brisk fire, when Dr. H., himself one of the most fearless of m6n, called out to them. ‘‘S. has been kill ed down there- better drag him in.” They turned back immediately, and one of them. J. Gillespie, got off his horse and lifted the corpse on to the saddle, they holding it in |>osition by hanging on to a leg on either side, and walked hack, while the bullets w-ere whistling ground them and knocking up little spurts of dirt on the ground in front of them. It was a most ghastly sight. A curious thing happened to a horse of one of the men who were performing this feat. The owner found when he. had re turned to Ladysmith that his water bot tle, which was attached to his saddle, had been perforated by a bullet. Show ing it to another In the evening, they came to the conclusion, from the posi tion of lie holes, that it would be Impos sible for the holes to be made in the po sition they were without wounding the horse. The next day, on examining the horse. h* found that a bullet had ectual ly passed through and through him. and yet apparently he seemed none the worse. There was another but different in stance of a horse carrying a corpse at the battle of Lombard's Kop. There was no leering and hideous grinning at us. however, as the rider’s head had been blown cleqn away by a Boer shell. The Fifth Lancers were riding out on our right when a single horse came galloping past them, clattering furiously over the stony veldt No wonder the men stared; it was a sight to be remembered. The rider was firmly fixed in the deep cavalry saddle; the reins tossed loose with the horse’s mane, nnd both hands were clenched against either side of his breast; and the head was cut off clean at the shoulders. Perhaps, in the spasm of that death-t ar the rider had gripped his horse’s sides with his long-spurred her]; perhaps the horse also was wounded; anyhow, with head down, and wild and terrified eyes, his shoulders foam-bespewed, he tore past as if In horror of the ghastly bur den he carried. How wonderfully expressive ore the eyes of these cavalry horses at times! There it seemed sheer horror; but often when wounded they look toward one with a world of pitiful appeal for relief; in their dumbness loud-volcedly reproachful against the horrors of war. Two men being killed on one hore seems rather a tall order.yet it is perfectly true, ft hapepned at the cavalry charge nfter Flandslaagte. Some of the Boers sloV>d their ground with great stubborness till our cavalry were only a few yards away. One middle-aged, bearded fellow stayed Just a little too long and had not time to get to his horse, which was a few yards away. He scrambled up behind a brother Boer who was just mounting, but almost 1 mediately the Fifth Lancer* were upon them. There was a farrier-corporal, and immensely big. powerful fellow, who singled them out. They were galloping down a slight incline as hard as they could get their horse to travel, hut their pursuer was gaining on them at every stride When he came within striking distance he Jammed his spurs into his big horse, who sprang forward like a tiger. Weight of man and horse, impetus of galop and hill focused In that bright lancepolnt. held as in a vice. It pierced the left Mdo of the ha<k of the man behind, and the point came out through the right side of the nun in front, who. with a convulaiee movement, threw up his hands. Hinging his rifle in the air. Th*. lancer could not withdraw his lance as the men swayed and dropped from their horse, but galloped nn Into the gathering darkness, punctur ed with rifle flashes here and there and flitting forms that might be friend or foe. This poor fellow was killed a few days after at thy battle of ReUfontcln. How heartily the Boers hated these Lancers! They would have liked so much to have had lances barred as against the nries of war; and it would,eortain 1 y have made an immense difference if our j*ide had suc ceeded in getting a few more chances, es pecially at the commencement of the war, of using the lance. The natives, numbers of whom were looking on at this battle, were greatly de lighted with ihe cavalry charge. It seem ed to take their fancy even more than did the artillery. “Great fight baa**—plen ty much blood, plenty much blood," one of them described it. He said he was crouching down behind a sheltering rock w'hile the Boers were running away past him. and then “the men with the assegais’’ came galloping after them A Boer with out his horse came running along and, pulling him out. took his behind the stone. A soldier galloped along end called out. “Hallo, Johnny, what are vou doing here? You’ll get hurt.” Then, catch ing of Ihe Boer, he stuck him down through the back as he passed, “Ah, was, great fight—plenty much blood.” THE OLD, BOYISH FKGMMiS. Uoh the sialit nf I rcltins Bathing in n Fountain \ffeoletl Stahl Mon. From the New Orleans Times-Democrat. “I saw something yesterday that made me envious. ’’ said an elderly cotton brok er. sighing deeply. “You know there is a fountain directly back of the Hennen building, at tho Common street end of Cotton Exchange alley. It has a per fectly plain oval basis and no attempt t ornament beyond a languid little jet in th° middle, but. set down there in the very iieart and centre of business tumult, it 1- a grateful and pleasant spectacle. 1 never puss it without feeling refreshed, and the mere sight of its clean, living water is somehow soothing to the eyes. “I came down the alley during lull in trade, and os'l drew near the fountain I became aware of a commotion of some sort. A lot of ragged street urchins were clustered about the basin and other* dodged in and out the corners of near-b\ buildings, apparently keeping watch against interruption. One of the sentries eyed me pretty sharply and then sang out; ’He’s all right, fellers! 1 blacks his shoes!’ At that there was a tremendous splash, and four small naked bodice sud denly ix>bbed up from behind the rim of the fountain. “Then I understood. They were taking a surreptitious public bath—the most pub lic that could possibly be imagined. Two of the boys wore tattered rolled up to the hips, but that was the total wardrobe, and they splashed around as happy as a school of young porpoises. I looked on and grinned, and my mind galloped back to the good old daye when I used to play hookey from school and go swimming in the branch, and the more l thought about it the more I wanted to puil up my trousers and jump into the fountain. “At the door of the Hennen building was a solemn old banker of my acquaint ance. smiling quietly to himself. Like to go in?’ I called. ’You bet!’ he replied Just then one of the sentinels came 4ear ing down the alley. 'Cheese it, fellers!’ he yelled; Mere’s a cop a-comlnV The effect was magical. The four boys jump el out of the water, dragged on ragged shirts and pantaloons, stuck their caps on the backs of their heads and four bundles of newspapers. There was an air of exaggerated innocence about the crowd tiiai clearly proclaimed 6ome re cent mischief, and the policeman sniffed suspiciously as he passed. 'What have you kids been doin'?’’ he demanded. ‘'Noth in’.’ replied the biggest; ‘have we, mis ter?’ 'Not a thing,’ said the banker, promptly. I think the recording ange| handled that fib very gently.” NOSES OF FIGHTERS. Hotter Tlmn Hump* to Tell diame ter lj—Studio* of African Cam pit Iguei'M. From the London Mai!. Physiognomists go so far as to assert , that the nose is the key to the man’s I character, the index to his brain. And so many people—great employers among them—share the belief that it is almost us lucky for a child to be born with a good nose on its face as with the proverbial silver spoon in irs mouth. There are noses and noses, even among the good specimens. There is the artistic nose (lit erally men and painters have it, or should have it); the “constructive” nose pecu liar to architects and engineers; and not the least important is one labeled by physiognomists “combative and organiz ing.” This might also be called the mill- j t.iry nose. It belongs to great command- I e rs on sea and land, and is so prominent . that it cannot be mistaken. Wellington | had it to an ahnoraxnl degree. In this, as in other respects, he has never been equaled by any other soldier. Wellington was a great believer in noses. Napoleon also admired a good nose, and was personally well-endowed in that par ticular. but nothing like to the same ex tent as his vanquisher at Waterloo. Both | are said io have chosen their men for im portant positions by the size and shape of their noses. In short, Wellington and Na poleon, for professional purpose?*, practic ed physiognomy, which was a crime In j the days of Elizabeth, when “:cll per- i sons fayning to have knowledge of Phisi ognomic or like Fantastical Imaginadons" i rendered themselves liable to all manner j of perils. Even in these days we have the tight- ! ing nose at the front—where, of course, it should be. The finest specimen is the property of Gen. Kelly-Kenny. 14 is quite Wellingtonlan, and give points to Napoleon. With such a nose Gen. Kelly- Kenny ought to go far. From his nose the physiognomist would tell you that Gen. French is possessed of determina tion and perseverance. The same expert would probably describe Gen. Sir Rrd vers BulJer’s nose as that of a “plodder,” while, to Aristotle, who, ver satile mar' professed some knowledge of physiogflbmy. Lord Kitchener is “insen sitive.” Of all the Boer commandants in the field, Louis Botha is the only one whose nose Is of the military model. Not withstanding th*- reverses he has suffer ed, he is generally credited with being n. very able soldier. Lord Roberts—what of his nose? I must be confessed that it is not of the “fight ing” stamp. The “face reader” would *ay that Its owner possessed great artis tic instinct. Quite right! Ix>rd Roberts is an artist—an artist in war. <sm Cures Dandruff, Falling Hair, Brittle Hair and all Scalp Troubles, such as Itching, Eczema, Eruptions, etc. Purely Vegetable, harmless and reliable.
