The government of Francesco Crifpl '■as sent the country back sixty years, ays Ouida in the Contemporary Re . i«w. By him and through him all the aid Instruments ot torture are in use. 'pies £11 the cities, detectives scour the fields, informers listen to all speech, public and private; literary clubs and co-operative societies are arbitrarily dissolved; packed Juries condemn; . enal judges sentence; military courts urprison civilians; 4?11 courts judge homicidal officers; time serving prefects leny me franchise to all independent thinkers and manipulate the electoral lists to suit their governments; lads as they come singing through the country lanes are arrested if the song is of lib erty; little children writing in chalk on the town wall are sent to prison foi forty-five days. There is a reign of ter ror from Alps to Etna, and the police, armed to the teeth, swarm everywhere and the prisons are crowded with inno cent citizens. The country has gone back to the darkest and worst days of Austria and papal tyranny and the j name of the tyrant is ostensibly Hum- j bert of Savoy; in reality, Francesco Crispi. Meanwhile there is no check, whatever ox* the caprices and coercion ui mo ruie. is aireaay siaiea usi 10 procure funds, nominally for Africa, actually for the elections, confiscated church property, now state property, is to he largely and without the consent of parliament illegally sold. To any one who cares for liberty and believes it to be the sole moral hygiene of a na* tion the state of Italy at the present time is painful and humiliating. Equally so to any unbiased English thinker is the attitude of the fading English newspaper* upon Italian at* fairs, which they continuously and sya tematlcally conceal or distort. It is difficult, well-nigh impossible to maks the most Intelligent Englishman com prehend Italian public life. He is mis led by the surface semblance of his own institutions of monarchy, parlia ment and electorate and he does not comprehend the enormous unllkeness of all these to his own caused by character and custom. AERIAL TRAVEL. (.Imitations Which Surround Animals la Their Flight. It is evident that not one of these would-be flying machine men has ever seriously undertaken to solve the prob lem mentally, says the Pittsburg Dis patch. There is but one way of getting through the air by mechanioal action, and that is by cleavage. There are really only two forms of cleavage, the one as represented by wing action as applied by insects and birds, the other a rotary action as represented by the screw of a steamer. To the application of the wing principle there is a limit set by natural law, Just as in animal forms there is a limit set to either bi< pedal or quadrupedal construction. There Is, perhaps, no form of cleavage that represents the expenditure of force more economically than wing action as manifested in the flight of a wild goose. Here is an exceptionally large avoir dupois for the wing area, but the bird cannot carry any additional weight. In the birds of prey, the body Is lighter in proportion to wing surface—a light, compact frame, but immense muscular action, capable of carrying for a short distance a load of from eight to twelve pounds. But the limit is soon found, and there is not a winged creature on the earth weighing fifty pounds that can mount into the air and cleave as a true flyer. Why do not the ostrich, the great auk, the emu and other congeners of these bird tribes properly fly, since they are equipped with cleavers as are other birds of flight? Walkers and swimmers, as well as flyers, are all, by natural law, limited within certain re strictions, and it is remarkable that these inventors have not learned this, as It Is a fact of the utmost Importance, and one which, in a careful analysis, must early disclose itself. Vo Moke Gropo VrM Mad. To make moat delicious aa veil aa healthful salad uae a good ripe grape fruit and crisp, fresh head af lettuce. Wash the lettuce and let It stand In cold water till needed, then shake out the leaves and arrange them In the sal ad bowl. Cut the grape-fruit in half and with a spoon take out all the pulp, taking care to preserve the Juice. Ar range the pulp In the lettuce leaves and make a dressing of oil and the Juice. To every three tablespoonfuls of this oil allow half a teaspoonful of pepper. Put all these Ingredients in a bowl and dissolve the salt and pepper In the oil, then rub the spoon with a dose of garlic and stir in the juice of the fruit until emulsion is formed. Pour It over the lettuce and pulp and serve at once. About one teaspoonful of Julie should be sufficient for three of oil, but It not possible to lay down any exact rule. Vigorous stirring is essential, and as soon as a whitish compound is formed the dressing is ready for use.—Philadel phia Record. Cheese Crackers.

Mtv Barrla’a Recollections of a School* motor Written at aa Karly Ago. Having regbrd to Mr. J. M. Bar rie’s visit to Dumfries academy, the Courier and Herald of that place prints some extracts from the novel ist’s early contributions to a school magazine called the Clown, which he and some friends started. Young Barrie writes some “Reckolections" In the asumed role of a "skoolmas ter" whose spelling is Artemus Wardian. In his second installment he complains that the editor “spelt sum of the wurds in my last reo kollections rong,” and he adds: “Altho, of coars, I maik jew allow ance for yoor eddukation not being equal to mine, I hop you will be more cairful.” Resuming the “Reckollec tlons,” he writes: "i aiwais open me tonooi witn prair, as I think it a verry good thing to do* and I got two skollars by it Now, my skollars have gen erally verry durty faces. Well, one day in the middle of my prair won of the boys crept in belo the tabel, and when he was there anuther boy cam in at the door with a oleen face. This was too mutoh for the boy in belo the tabel, and, just as I had fin ished saying ‘And may they crie from the botom of their harts—he shouted out ‘Lord Almichti, there’s Jock Smith wi' his face washed!" Here Is an instance of how ef fectively the lad could reproduce a conversation. Relating a railway journey the schoolmaster says: “On my rode we passed the river ‘Aye.’ A gentleman asked ms, •What river is that?’ “I was meditatin', so I answered abruptly, ‘Aye.* “The gentleman repeated his ques tion, and I, thinkin’ ha had not heard me, again replied ‘Aye.’ “ ‘Could- -you—tell — me—what— river—that—is?’ he roared into my eer. “1 again answered ‘Aye.’ “ ‘Sir, said he, *1 sea you want to insult me!’ “I couldn’t comprehend what he said till another person in the trane informed me that he thoat that I meant ‘eh’ when I said ‘aye.’” Here is another example well worth giving: “The minister of the town was sed to be a good preacher, and so I went to heer him on the furst Sabboth of the munth. I went early, and their wer only one person there who I saw was a nelder. I sed to him, ‘When does service begin?’ “The man staired. “■‘When does service begin?’ 1 agen asked. "To my surprise the elder ex claimed: ‘What abomnabul impurt nense. Pray, sur, do you know oor respecktit ministir?’ “ ‘Me no him? No,’ sed L “ ‘Then get oot o’ this,’ he re plied. 'You impurnant skoundral git oot o’ this; an’, if I sea you here agen I’ll kick you oot mysel!’ “Of oourse I was gratoly aston ished at the man, not noing anythink I bad sed about the minister; but it struck me at wonoe that the minis ter’s name was Service!" Admiral da Harsajr mad the Han try. When Admiral de Horsey, who some years ago had command of the British fleet in the Pacific, was the admiral of the North Atlantic squadron, he waB one evening dining on shore at Port Royal. Jamaica. On ' returning to his flag-ship alone after dinner, his way to the boat led across the barrack square. A black sentry, of one of the West India regiments, halted him at the gate with, “Who goes dar?’’ Great was the admiral’s annoyanoe to find he had neglected to get the pass-word before leaving the ship. “That’s all right," he said carelessly, hoping to overcome the man’s scruples by Indifference; “you know who I am." “Dunno nobody. Bar,” replied the nigger, pompously; “you can’t go in dar." “Why, I’m Admiral de Horsey.’’ “Well, you can’t go In, I don't oare if you’s Admiral de Donkey."—Argonaut Lnarnnd by Bxparlaaoa. A certain judge in Chicago, who rather prides himself on his vast and varied knowledge of law, was com pelled not long ago to listen to a case that had been appealed from a justice of the peace. The young practi tioner who appeared for the appel lant was long and tedious; he brought in all the elementary text-books and quoted the fundamental propositions of law. At last, the judge thought it was time to make an effort to hurry him up. “Can't we assume,” he said, blandly, “that the court knows a little law itself?” “That's the very mistake I made in the lower court,” answered the young man, “I don’t want to let it defeat me twice.”— Argonaut a Bslntlvn in Xaid. Half a century ago, when “sub jects” were bought by the surgeons, a poor man, writes James Payn, fell dead in Fleet street Without a mo ment’s hesitation, a young fellow who was jessing threw himself on his knees beride the corpse, exclaim ing: “My father, my dear father!” A crowd gathered round, their sym pathy was excited, and money was subscribed te enable the pious youth to take sfaay his father’s body in a hackney coach. He did so, and took it to a surgeon, who gave him a hun dred dollars for it Poor Lit tin Thing. “What’s the matter, Molly?” asked Colonel Terger of his little 6-year-old daughter. “Pq, my mocking bird is dead.” “Well, never mind, &olly, I’ll buy you another one.” “I am calm enough now, but when I saw that poor little dead bird I could have cried like a child,” said | Molly.—Texas Siftings.
