DEPEW IMKHVIEWED.
Talks on Marriaar, Knif Breeches,
Politics and Other Thinsn.
From the New York Herald.
lajndon, June 19.—Looking ruddy and
&e vigorous almost as a youth of twen
ty, Senator Chauncey M. Depew. with
Mrs. Depew and his son, Chauncey M.
Depew, Jr., arrived by the St. Louis
to-day.
' When I saw the senator at the Carl
ton he was in his usual jovial humor,
despite the fatigues of the early jour
ney from Southampton, and was also,
as usual, interesting.
“Yes." he replied, in answer to a
comment on his appearance, "I have
gained flesh and have regained youth
since my marriage. On the steamer the
other day I was approached by a man
who said he had read an interview
with me which was recently published
in Chicago, advising all single men to
get married.
“ 'I have taken your advice,’ he said.
‘My wife and I are now on our honey
moon.'
"I told him I had not expected my
advice to be taken so quickly.
“Another experience I had on the
steamer touched me very much. At a
concert the other night I presided and
made a speech in which I showed that
realization is sometimes greater than
anticipation, contrary to the accepted
idea. Later the gentleman told me he
had recently’ lost nis wife under very
sad circumstances and had come to
feel that life was not worth living.
“ ’But,' he added, ‘your speech has
put anew heart in me.’ ’’
Progress of Journalism.-
Mr. Depew thinks the London news
papers are fast learning American
methods.
“Why, as soon as I got to my room
this morning," he said, “I received a
card from a representative of a Lon
don newspaper.
’* 1 have only just arrived,' I said to
him. when he was shown up.
" ‘Yes. I know it.' he replied. ‘I have
been waiting for you.’
“I rubbed my eyes. 'Am I in Eng
land?' I inquired anxiously, but he did
not seem to understand.
“Several years ago it was the cus
tom here for me to receive a note from
the managing editor of a newspaper
asking the privilege of an interview.
When I gave it they would send up
their copy to be revised.”
-\ot to See turunullon.
Mr. Depew told me he would not see
the coronation ceremony. I inferred
from what he said that it was owing
to his objection to donning court dress,
including the knee breeches and long
silk stockings which are prescribed,
and the adverse impression it might
make among his friends and constitu
ents In America, being foreign to re
publican ideas.
“It would involve too many nrepara
tions ” said the Senator. “Then, too, I
would become confused trying to rec
oncile the descriptions of my appear
ance by newspaper reporters w’ith those
snap shots of sketch artists who would
undoubtedly be lying in wait for me.”
The senator was much interested in
the costume worn by those who are
presented to the King.
T suppose the idea of knee breeches
is not fully comprehended on the other
side,' he said. “I am afraid if it were
known that our diplomatic corps wore
court costume,” said Mr. Depew, laugh
ing, "it would raise such a storm of
protest throughout the country that it
woula lead to a resolution on the sub
ject being introduced in both houses of
Congress.’
The Senator was most optimistic on
affairs in America just now.
"Prosperity is unprecedented,” he
said, “and, best of all, it seems built
on a solid basis, and that basis is gold.
Populism has been wiped out. You will
remember it arose when there were
hard times. It is the disposition of
man during a plague to be willing to
try any sort of patent medicine.
"You cannot get him to take medi
cine when he is 111. Just so, when
times were hard and money scarce, the
farmers of the West clamored for the
panacea of free silver. The idea pre
sented itself and spread. Now it has
gone; there is no need of any remedy.
Everybody would be afraid now to go
after such things.
“I cannot enlarge too much on the
general prosperity which in America
is apparent on every hand. The rail
roads cannot get enough cars to han
dle the traffic. Factories cannot work
fast enough to supply the demand for
their products. The farmer Is getting
sixty cents per bushel for corn, where
three years ago he could get only thir
ty. Beef on the hoof Is bringing sev
en and eight cents which then brought
only three to five. We hold the balance
of the world's trade, and consequently
there is plenty of gold. It Is not long
ago since money was worth tihrty to
forty per cent, in Wall street. To-day
it is considered tight when as much as
5 per cent, is asked.
”Our currency question is straight
ened out, our commerce is expanding
and while there may be setbacks, I am
confident there can never be a repeti
tion of those panics which in past
years visited us.
‘‘Yes, those new trains from New
York to Chicago are wonderful.” said
Mr. Depew, enthusiastically, in an
swer to a question. "They annihilate
space. Why, it is fully 900 miles from
one city to the other. Now a man
may get away from his office in New
York in time to catch the 3 o'clock
train, arrive in Chicago at 3 o’clock
In the afternoon and be back in New
York at 9 the next day, having been
away from his office practically only
twenty-four hours.”
English Hoads Overcapitalised.
"Do you think there is any salva
tion for English railroads?” X asked.
"English railroads and ours run on
entirely different plans.” replied the
Senator, cautiously. "Overcapitaliza
tion seems to he the trouble over here.
For ten years back in America we
have pursued the policy of charging
every expenditure we possibly could
to operating expenses. English rail
roads. on the contrary, charge it up
to capital.
“For instance, if a locomotive is re
paired the cost is added to capitaliza
tion. If an eighty-pound rail is laid
In place of a sixty-pound one the twen
ty pounds difference is added to capi
talization. If anew bridge is put in
place of an old one the difference be
tween the new one and the old one
goes to capitalization. Now, in America
these things are charged to operating
expenses; hence it is easy to see why
most English railroads do not pay
large dividends. Their earnings do not
diminish, of course, but their capital
Is on the Increase, and the stockholders
do not fare as well as they sometimes
do in America.

Order from Henry Solomon & Son
said the senator, “that Congress would
be over by June 10, but I see it is not.”
"The Democrats have lighted on the
Philippine question as a Trojan horse,
which they have been trying to fill up
for seven weeks, but we have been sit
ting on the wall looking on,” he added
with a chuckle.
“Mrs. Depew. my son and I expect
to be over here six week. We shall stay
in London two of them. You see, Mrs.
Depew has been living in Washington
and is going to try the f-.ris cure of
Dr. Worth and Dr. Paquin," and the
senator enjoyed a hearty laugh as a
gleam of light began to break over his
caller.
The Slone Breaker.
From the French of Quatrelles.
There was once, in Japan, in times
so far away that the learned hardly
now dare speak of them, a poor little
stone breaker who worked on the
highivays.
He worked on the highways as long
as day lasted, in all weathers, in all
seasons, in rain, in the burning sun
shine, and in snow. He was always
halt' dead with fatigue and three-quar
ters dead with hunger, and he was not
at all contented with his lot. “Oh! how
I would bless heaven.” he said, “If one
day l became rich enough to sleep far
into the morning, to eat w-hen I was
hungry and drink when I was athirst.
I am told that th'ere are people so
blessed by fate as always to be gay
and full of food. Stretched at ease up
on thick mats before my door, my back
covered with soft silken vestments, I
would take my afternoon nap, wakened
every quarter of an hour by a serv
ant, who should remind me that I had
nothing to do, and that I might sleep
without remorse.”
A passing angel overheard these
words, and smiled.
“Be it according to your wish, poor
man!” the angel said. And suddenly
the stone breaker found himself before
the door of a splendid dwelling of his
own, stretched at his ease upon a pile
of thick mats and dressed in sumptu
ous garments of silk. He was no long
er hungry, no longer thirsty, no longer
tired—all of which appeared to him as
agreeable as it was surprising.
He had feasted for half an hour on
these unknown enjoyments when th
Mikado passed by. The Mikado! It
was a great thing to be the Mikado.
The Mikado was the Emperor of Ja
pan, and the Emperor of Japan was,
especially in those days off times, the
most powerful of all the Emperors of
the East.
The Mikado was traveling for his
pleasure, preceded by couriers, sur
rounded by cavaliers more embroider
ed and belaced than the Grand Turk
of Turkey, followed by famous war
riors, escorted by musicians, accom
panied by the most beautiful women
in the world, who reclined in howdahs
of silver borne on the backs of white
elephants.
The Mikado lay upon a bed of down
in a palanquin of fine gold, decked
with precious stones. His Prime Min
ister had the unequaled honor of hold
ing above his master’s head a large
umbrella, fringed all round with tiny
jingling bells.
The enriched stone breaker followed
the Imperial procession with an eye of
envy.
“Much advanced I am," said he to
himself. “Shall I be happy with the
few paltry indulgences I am able to
give myself? Why am I not the Mi
kado? I could then traverse the high
ways in a splendid carriage and a
golden palanquin, powdered with pre
cious stones, followed by my prime
minister, under the shade of a great
umbrella, fringed with jingling bells,
while my second minister refreshed my
visage with the waving of a fan of
peacocks’ feathers. Ah, I wish I were
the Mikado!”
"Be as you wish to be,” said the
angel.
And instantly he found himself
stretched on the down bed of the gold
en palanquin, powdered w’ith precious
stones, surrounded by his ministers,
his warriors, his women and his slaves,
who said to him in Japanese:
“Mikado, you are superior to the sun,
you are eternal, you are invincible. All
that the mind of man can conceive you
can execute. Justice itself Is subor
dinate to your will, and Providence
waits on your counsels tremblingly.”
The stone-breaker said to himself:
"Very good! These people know my
value.”
The sun, which had been shining
very ardently for some days, had
parched the country. The road was
dusty, and the glare from It fatigued
the eyes of the apprentice Mikado, who,
addressing his minister, the bearer of
the Jingling umbrella, said:
“Inform the sun that he is incom
moding me. His familiarities displease
me. Tell him that the great Emperor
of Japan authorizes him to retire! Go!”
The prime minister confided to a
chamberlain the honor of carrying
the jingling umbrella, and went on his
mission.
He returned almost instantly, his
face expressing the utmost consterna
tion.
"Great Emperor, sovereign of the
gods and men, it is inconceivable! The
sun pretends not to have heard me,
and continues to burn up the road!”
“Let him be chastised!”
"Certainly! Such insolence deserves
It; but how am I to get hold of him
to administer his punishment?”
“Am I not the equal of the gods?”
“Assuredly, great Mikado, at least
their equal.”
“You told me just now- that nothing
is impossible to me. Either you have
lied, or you resist me, or you have
badly executed my orders: I give you
five minutes to extinguish the sun, or
ten to have your head chopped off.
Go!”
• The Prime Minister departed, and
did not return.
The exasperated stone breaker was
purple with anger.
"This is a pretty sort of a dog’s
business, upon my word, to be Em
peror, if he has to submit to the fa
miliarities, caprices and brutalities of
a mere circulating star. It is -plain
that the sun is more powerful than I.
I wish I were the sun.”
“Be it as you wish!” said the angel.
And the little stone breaker sparkled
in the highest heavens, radiant, flam
ing. He took pleasure in scorching
trees, withering their leaves, and
parching up springs; in covering with
perspiration the august visages of Em
perors. as well as the dusty muzzles
of the wayside stone breakers—his
companion* of the morning.
But a cloud came between the earth
and him, and the cloud Bald:
"Halt, my dear fellow; you can’t
come this way!”
’’By the moon, that’s too much! A
cloud -a r>oor little, misty, bodiless

fellow’ and bar* my way! Cloud*, it
is plain, are more powerful than 1. If

that in such a terrible fashion that the
uprooted trees found nothing left but
mud in which to hold on to the ground.
Under his aquatic reign of several
hours, streams became floods, floods be
came torrents, the seas were confound
ed with each other, and dreadful wa
terspouts were whirled in every direc
tion, ringing and destroying whatever
was above the surface of the waters.
A rock, however, made head against
the force of the hurricane. In spite of
all, it remained unmoved. On its
granite sides the waves broke in frothy
showers, the waterspouts sank at its
feet and the thunder made it laugh
every time it burst against its unyield
ing flanks.
"I am at the end of my powers!”
said the cloud; “this rock defies me,
masters me and fills me with envy.”
“Take its place!” said the angel, ‘‘and
let us see whether, at last, you are
satisfied.”
The transformed cloud did not yet
feel at hie ease. Immovable, inaccessi
ble. insensible to the burning caresses
of the sun and to the booming of the
thunder, he believed himself to be the
master of the world. But at his feet
a sharp hammering sound attracted
his attention. He stooped and beheld
a w retched being covered with rags
thin an. 1 , bald, as he had been in the
time of his deepest poverty, who, with
a heavy hammer in his hand was en
gaged In chipping off pieces of the
granite for the purpose of mending the
neighboring road.
“What is the meaning of this*’” cried
the l haughty nock; “a poor wretch—
wretched amongst the most wretched—
mutiliating me, and I cannot defend
myself! i am as profoundly humiliated
reduced to envy the lot even of this
wretched being?"
“Take his place,” said the angel,
smUing.
And the insatiate personage became
again what he had been before— a poor
little stone breaker as in the past, he
worked on the highways as long as the
day lasted, in all weathers, in ell sea
sons, in rain, in burning sunshine and
in srow. He was always half dead
with hunger, three-quarters dead with
fatigue. But that did not prevent his
be.r.g perfectly contented with his lot.
HOW ANIMALS SWIM.
Most Beasts Have Natural Instinct
for Water.
From the Chicago Tribune.
The leading distinction between a
beast and a man when swimming is
the fact that the beast fearlessly pro
ceeds as best he may, after the same
methods he used on land, while the
man adopts a hundred maneuvers
which are novel to his continental
movements.
Man in the water emulates the frog,
an entirely different creature, using his
arms as a sort of wing to keep him
afloat while effecting progress with
his legs. Since the relative length of
his limbs differ from those of his illus
trious example, he never succeeds in
attaining its perfection in swimming.
When animals enter the water they
propel themselves precisely as they do
on the land, except with greater force;
hence they become not only expert
travelers by sea but also excellent
transports for heavy burdens. When
they approach deep water they imme
diately begin to swim without fur
ther ado, entering the fluid element
with the profoundest confidence,
whether doing so as an incident in
their roaming or as a necessity be
cause of pursuit.
Swims in lee Water.
Of all land animals there is no bet
ter swimmer than the polar bear. This
powerful beast of prey stands half
his time in the water, leaving colossal
tracks in his wake. His performance
is particularly remarkable because he
is surrounded by ice cold water, and
cold is the direst enemy to good swim
ming. A peasant, whose hut stood
on the shore of an island, one evening
heard a noise on the beach. Peeping
out of the window, he saw a tre
mendous Bruin squatting on the
beach,' licking himself dry. He had
just stepped out of the water, and
must have traveled at least twenty
five miles, from the nearest ice-pack,
without a moment’s rest.
It is fascinating to watch a polar
bear pursuing seals, one of his dear
est table delicacies. Perceiving the
seals some distance away on the rocks,
he takes a circuitous route by water
to reach them. At first he plunges
boldly forward, but, as he advances,
he sinks lower and lower. Finally,
only his head is visible, then only his
snout projects, and this gradually dis
appears, as the vast beast dives quite
beneath the waves a few yards from
the victim. A few minutes later he
darts out at the side of the seal, as it
basks on a low rock, and, before it can
slip into the sheltering sea, pounces
upon it with an effective death blow.
Safety I niter Water.
If a deer, a buffalo, a pig or some
other land beast be pursued by a boat
in the water he never looks to the wa
ter for his salvation but only tries to
move the faster. Aquatic fowls, on the
contrary, and all animals inured to
water life duck their heads or make
themselves less conspicuous by sinking
the whole body gradually beneath the
surface.
One of the most fearless swimmers
is the marten. A man once noticed
one of these clever little creatures
swimming across a small lake with a
pigeon in his mouth out toward the
wood on the other side. He could have
had easy access by land to the pigeon
cote, but doubtless shrewdly concluded
that he was safer to attempt his theft
by water.
Some of the most awkward as well
as the most masterly swimmers belong
to the rodents. The beaver is an ex
pert, while rats and mice rival the
aquatic skill of their cousins, the wa
ter rats and water mice. Squirrels are
marvelously apt in accustoming them
selves to travel by water. A huntsman
who had seen wild squirrels spring in
to some brook and escape to the far
ther shore made an experiment upon
his own pet squirrel, which he knew
had never been near the water.
He took him out in a boat and drop
ped him into a lake. At first the squir
rel tried to leap out, but rapidly re
alizing that that could not be done
applied himself with such velocity to
swimming that his master had diffi
culty in catching him. As he swam
he stood head and shoulders above the
surface, while his back and tall were
sunk deep beneath the water.
All ruminants, with the exception* of
the camel, and possibly the wild sheep,
are excellent swimmers and show no
hesitation in entering the water.
Kike at e half aquatic animals who ex
perience not the slightest inconvenience
in managing a Journey by waier. They
hold their heads up loftily, making an
imposing snei fade as they advance.
It< Indeer are good swimmer* and

Deer when swimming hold their
heads and part of their spines out of
til* water, gome circus managers take
deer to a bight of fifty feet, whence
they spring Into a miniature lake be
low and swim to the farther side.
Everybody knows that the fhlmwe
to# snd hi!<pi/!>! Minus ars mast* ,■
divers and swimmers, tut everybody
does not know that elephant# are their
tit sis for squsttc bounty, |n India
elephants often for a month at a time
spend their days in swimming from
one side of the river to the other, car
rying heavy burdens as they go. Often
they remain in the water uninterrupt
edly for sixteen hours or more, always
with a weight on their backs.
Horses swim most skillfully, as the
maneuvers of cavalrymen in the waters
testify, although there are horses who
cannot be induced to go in beyond their
depth.
While swimming the elephant keeps
his eye close to the waterline and
stretches his trunk to and fro over the
surface of the stream, raising or low
ering his back as he chooses.
Swine are pretty well at home in the
water, although they are strangers to
baths. Many a time in shipwrecks pigs
by the hundred have saved themselves
from premature death and unknown
graves by cleverly making for the
shore.
LOOVS GREAT EI.SH KILLERS.
Wary Bird*. But Easily Lured if a
Simple Device Be Tried.
From the New York Sun.
Four kinds of people shoot loons;
those who want specimens of this
strange and beautiful bird, taxider
mists who dress and sell the skins,
those who wish merely to see whether
or not they can center an exceedingly
difficult target and those who realize
that the loon is the greatest of feath
ered fish destroyers. The loon’s appe
tite causes it to be regarded with dis
favor by ail anglers acquainted with
its habits. The bird will eat its own
weight in fish two or three times a
week and its warfare against the fin
week and its warfare against the
finned ones is incessant through day
light hours, as it needs to be in order
to keep pace with its steady hunger.
Many of the bass-frequented lakes of
the country are little more than large
ponds, occupying from ’SO to 100 acres.
If three pairs of looms make a pond of
this sort their summer home they will
pretty nearly depopulate it of small
fishes before going South in autumn.
They do not attack the larger fish,
either because they cannot catch them
or because they cannot handle them,
but they will take care of any bass not
more than a half pound in weight. On
the surface a loon is not much faster
tahn a strong duck, but in swimming
below the surface it has no lyinged
equal. Its nefk is far extended, act*
ing like a prow, its wings are pressed
closed to its body, its powerful legs
and broad feet drive it almost like an
arrow. A loon that has been wing
tipped and realizes that it cannot fly
will dive and for. a while easily out
strip a pair-oared boat. Sometimes
in clear water there are exciting chases
of this kind. Often it will dive and re
appear at a distance of a quaretr of a.
mile, and it can swim even farther un
der water without coming up for air.
The best method is to send a shrill
whistle over the water. It will stop
then for three or four seconds and lis
ten intently, just as a deer will stop
and listen to a similar signal, and in
that time the hunter must do his most
careful sighting and trigger pressing.
The loon can be fooled in this way
once or twice, hut not oftener. Charles
Piper, a taxidermist at Delafleld, Wis„
gets loons whenever he wants them by
a method of his own. He goes to the
lake, marks the spot w’here the fish
killer is at work, and does not care if
it is a quarter of a mile out. Waiting
until it dives, he runs forward, ties a
handkerchief to a reed and runs back
to his place. When the loon comes
up it is certain to observe the bit of
white or red cloth and to experience a
desire to know what it is. It will dive
again, but come up slightly nearer to
the handkerchief. It may fool away
an hour at this kind of thing, but
eventually, If it is not disturbed, it
will come within forty yards of the
signal. How much closer it would
come if let alone. Piper does not know.
Killed l>y Trousers.
From the London Daily News.
In connection with the trousers cen
tenary, a correspondent reminds us
that a tragedy was, in Paris, associated
with the introduction of the elongated
garments nd the discarding of the
knee-breeches. A tradesman in the city
took the sartorial innovation very much
to heart. He foresaw that his occupa

penurious old age, he ended his earthly
troubles by drowning himself In the
