The steady i s coining on the heels ot lwd s „ c ,.p 01l planters nave not known in a ■ rrmiernlion, causes them to re- ■ II ct from their honest faces the ‘glow of prosperity the dawning of which has been so long de layed. * * * 'The next naval sensation may lie sprung by ‘‘Brigadier Bill” who should claim an admiralcy because he has held the govern ship during the war, and has successfully witnessed a Spanish bull fight on Sunday. None ot your rear admiralcies, Air. Pres ident, ‘‘Brigadier Bill” will ac cept nothing behind a front ad miralcy. * * * The tomb of Gen. John Bur goy ne, who was defeated by Gen. Gates at the battle of Still water, and who surrendered to the Con tinental forces at Saratoga in 1777, is in Westminister Abbe\ not far from the final resting place of Air. Gladstone. * * * Julius Seeth, toe merman lion tamer, was recently presented with a valuable collection of lions by King Menelk of Abys sin a. The king had heard of Seeth’s prowess, and had twenty eight Abyssinia lions trapped in order to witness the taming of the beasts. The German soon trained the lions, whereupon-the delighted monarch made him a i present of the entire collection. • * * It is a curious instance of the irony of history that the close of the first naval battle between the United States and Spain in . the waters of the New World there should have been left bat tered and stranded upon the Cuban coast a great war vessel named in honor of the discover er whom Ferdinand and Isabella I »cnt out to find that very islati and this huge western hemis phere.

He tlso claimed that Walker tried 'o palm off mouse tails on him is tails of young rats. The hired man secured a favorable verdict in the lower courts, but Stur geon will continue hie legal fight to escape payment. ** Willie Atkinson says it makes him tired to see so many young men who want commissicns in the army when “they should be proud to enlist as privates.” Does curly headed Willie re member that he almost strained his safety valve trying to get the job of brigadier general?
