Tlios. K VAN, our minister to
Mexico, has submitted a proposition
to congress to return the trophies
we took irom Mexico back to her,
as we are on friendly terms and
have verjr close commercial rela

to us, and to return them to the orig
inal owners would be gratifying to a
nation to whom we are so closely
connected.
GIVE THE BOY A TRADE.
Kx-Maj-or Vaux makes the state
ment, as the result of hisfifty years'
observation as an inspector at the
penitentiary, that a useful trade is
a better preventive of crime 'than a
irood education. This agrees with
the observation of many other
persons who have made a study of
the question. The man or boy with
an "education" and no trade or pro
fession is poorly equipped for the
world.s battle. A false ideal pre
vails that i' is "lowering" for a boy
to be taught a trade. And that ac
counts for many of the crimes com
mitted hy men who think that "the
world owes them a living." It is a
pit' that parents cannot be made to
appreciate the truth of what Mr.
Vaux says on this subject.
FIRED ON THE Y0RKTOWN.
The dispatches this morning give
the startling rumor that the
Chilians had fired on the Yorktown
in the harbor of Valpariso although
it could not be found out whether
it was the truth or not. If it should
prove to be a fact Admiral Evens,
who is the commander would evi
dently return the fire with Yankee
heroism.
The navy department is very
active at Washington and at Mare
Island navy yard the men worked
all da' Sunda' and the Baltimore
has been over hauled and will start
for Chilian waters to-morrow, and
all Naval ofiicers who are off on
leave of absense are requested to
report at once for special duty.
Maps of the coast of Chili which
show every fortified spot along the
Chilian coast have been furnished
the different army officers and the
navy, these maps show Valparaiso
to be well fortified being protected
by four large forts and several bat
teries, but it is thought that our
biggest war ships with their heavy
guns could soon silence them.
ALU FOR PROTECTION.
Ilackettstown. N. J., in order to in
duce a German firm to start a plusli
factory in its midst is raising $13,
(XX) for the erection of a building,
which is to be given to the plush
makers free of rent for a term of six
years. Democrats and republicans
are alike subscribing to the fund,
thus testifying to the fact that
when a coperete proposition is
presented to Americans they sweep
aside theories and act like noble
men. A few months ago we had
occasion to call attention to the fact
that the citizens of San Diego had
subscribed a large sum of money
to induce the erection of an iron
rolling factory in their midst,
Among the subscribers were many
of the leading democrats of the
town. These gentlemen for thi
moment forgot the teachings of
such eminent free trade lights as
Cleveland, that the artificial stimu
lation of trade ."or manufactures is
pernicious, and went in with all
their might for a project which they
knew would help their town. Of
couse they showed themselves to
be sensible business men, but it is
curious that the same person, when
it came to broadening the question,
seem to be unable to preceive that
if it if a good thing for; a town to
have manufactures in its midst it
miiHt also be good for nation.
The silliest economic doctrine ever
preached is that of natural methods.
There is nothing natural about
modern trade or manufactures.
They are both in the highest degree
artificial, and the nations or locali
ties which trust least to nature and
rely most on art are those which
succeed in attaining the highest
degrse of prosperity. San Fran
cisco Chronicle,
FILLED HIS HEAD WITH SHOT.q
An Ashland Citizen Fatally Injured
by an Accidental Discharge.
Late luHt night a man named
Searles, an employee of the Union
Will Mill Company of Ashiand, Neb.
J returned from a rabbit hunt. He
i entered his house and being cold
I laid his gun on the table, the most
convenient place, not thinking that
it was cocked. After warming him
self his wife asked him to go out
doors for something and just as he
was passing the window the woman
pushed the table back against the
: wall to its a customed place. The
I jar discharged the gun turough
the window. The charge struck the
husband in the back of the head
; and shoulders.
j A ph3-sician was immadiately
called, and an examination showed
that no less than twelve shot en
i tered the unfortuuate man's head
j and shoulder. These were removed
j to-day from his shoulder but it is
: almost impossible to remove them
from his head, as he has a very
thick, heavy growth of hair upon
it which has been badly clotted
with blood. Physicians sa3' that
' the chBtices for his recovery is al
: most hopeless.
CURIOUS WAR INCIDENT.
CoL Mosby Unfn to a Little Story, and
Hounds It Out.
A few evenings ago Col. E. A.
Denieke entertained at dinner Capt.
Freneh, a Philadelphia, hanker and an
officer of the Signal Corps during the
war. Among tne other ruest.s were
some members of the local corps and
Col. John S. Mosby, the well-known
guerilla chieftain. Capt. French has
contributed a number of articles to
the Century and other magazine re
lating to his escape, from Lihhy Prison,
and at the dinner-table he. narrated an
incident which has not yet been pub
lished. We were attached to Sherman's
army." said Capt. French, "and as we
w ere march in"; toward G'ivsbunr I
was detailed to reconn'iter with
another man. We passed a firm-houe.
but afterwards returned to t ie place to
ask for a drink of water. The house
was witi'in the Union lines, and a
Troup of officers was standin": in front.
Before we had an opportunity of speak
ing a woman informed us that our din
ner was ready, and although we were
considerably surprised at this, we had
no objection in those days to eat a din
ner which was obviously designed for
Eome oue else.
"As we left the house a man in
civilian dress ordered me to throw up
my hands and surrender. As I was
within Union lines my first thought
was that some soldier was plaingH
practical joke uoon me, and I careless
ly ijruoretl it, but wlieu the man em
phasized his order by pointing an ugly
looking gun close to my head, I eon
oidered it wise to obey. The upshot of
that adventure was my eontinement in
Libby Prison. I don't know who my
captor was. but the occurrence was ou
the 16th of"
Capt. Freuch was interrupted by
Col. Mosby. "Yon are mistaken as to
the date," said the latter, "it was on
the 17th, and, by the way. yon probab
ly do not know that you were almost a
dead man that day. When I pointed
the gun at you I was wiggling the trig
ger, but somehow it did not work
smoothly and your surrender prevented
its discharge."
"Were you my captor?" asked Capt.
French in surprise. "I heard after
ward that he was one of Mosby's men."
"I was the man." was Co). Mosby's
grim repiy. Sun Francisco Call.

severe cold and requires precisely
the same treatment. Remain quiet

vere cold and a prompt and com
plete recovery is sure to follow.
This remedy also counteracts any
tendency of la grippe to result in
pneumonia. Among the many

we have yet to learn of a single
case that has not recovered or that
has resulted in pneumonia. 25 and

A NEWSPAP'R DIRECTORY.
8oni ti Aclla of mi K.lilor Who Wm
Controlled 1T it llnr.l of Directors.
A certain newspaper not over a thou
sand miies from Dotroit was once
owned and operated by a syndicate of
lawyers, business men and politicians.
About half of the board of directors
at first wanted the fun and honor of
running the paper. So whenever one
of them fancied he had an idea in his
head he would run up to the office and
interview the managing editor.
Din etor iio. l'n idea was that the
editors and reporters were loafing
most of the liui bi-eause- they were
not in the 'uilding every minute of
the day like ItU own mill hands.
-D' you give your whole lime to the
paper?' Kf asked oue day of the mau
aginir edit:r.
"(ii. no." said the- editor. "I take
seven or eight hours fur sleep, and an
hour or nior for meals, a quarter of
an hour tot ie-fing in the morning,
five minutes uudressing at night. I
don't s..ave, so tnere's live or ten inin
ules saved I here; but I black my own
boots; that takes time. Then there's
the time goin to ami coming from
the office. Sometimes I lie awake an
hour or two at night thinking out some
scheme for the paper. That ought to
offset the time 1 take for meals. It
seems to me, though, as if I gave all
the rest of the lime lo tne paper."
"Humph! "You ought to write more
for it! Three columns a day at least."
You ou;rht to put a barrel of water
into every gallon of whisky you'd
get more for the money uutil people
found it out.'
I saw the gas burning here as late
as 12 o'clock one night. The gas bills
are something frightful," said director
No. 2 when he called.
Yes; well, you see this is a niorn
in;r paper and it gets pretty dark by
midnight, and along until the paper
goes to press, the compositors those
are the men that set the types, you
know they can't read everybody's
copy in the dark, and so whenever
the" come across a piece of copy they
are not familiar with wo have to light
the gas for them. Probably when von
C ime by the office t.iat night they had
just struck a piece of tuat kind of
copy."
Oh, of course, if it's necessary we
can't object, but don't burn any more
than you actually need."
Director No. 3 remarked:
"I don't altogether like what you
copy from other papers. I don't thiyk
it's verj interest inir. Now, I've taken
the New York 0's'rvt:r for several
j-ears. ami there's a lot of interesting
readinsr matter in that. Wheu I get
through with it hadn't I better send
tne paper do vn to you. ami you can
copy things out of il. I have kept- a
file 'of it for yoars, so I wouldn't like
to have yotTT'ut it."
Oh. yes, send it along. I won't cut
anything out of it."
Another director came iu one day
and remarked:
That's a fine article you've got on
the editorial page this morning! Get's
me in a nice mes-d Why, the man's
one of mr best friends siud Le'll lay
for me. W o vrote it?'
"Mr. Jargon."
"Well. Jackson is a fool. He's
no more judgment than a sheep. We
ouiiht to get rid of niui."
In order to appease Mr. Director
the editor a few davs afterward nail
another artie e prenared carefully,
taking back what hud been said aud
making a veiled apology for it.
In came director No. 5.
You've inatlo an awful mistake;
you oug t to slii-k to what you said
last week. Til t u as just riht. It
hit the nail on I In head, went rij-ht to

bers. Bishop Nicholson, of Wisconsin, is
extremely popular in Philadelphia,
where he built up a magnificent con
gregation iu the most fashiouable part
of the city. One of the new Bishop's
fads is the education of young men for
the ministry. He is now paying the
expenses of two youths at au Eastern
theological school.
A recent traveler in Cuba reports
that all the small silver coins in that
country have holes in t!em. Most of
them are American dimes and quarters.
The perforation is done to keep this
kind of money iu the county. The
number of hoies in a piece does not ap
pear to affect its exchang.ible value.
This is a hint to the fclreei-car com
panies. A project for t!ie introduction of a
university course iuto B ston a public
school system is before t.;e Boston
board of aldermen. It provides
that the course shall be free to such
scholars as exhibit the necessary pro
ficiency and that all the expense of it
shall be borne by the city. It is not un
like educating schemes that exist in
France and Germany.
