Hesky James in an article npon "Our Artists in Europe," which will he publish ed, with portraits, in Harper's Magazine for June, declares: "If the centuries an ever arrainged at some bar of justice tc avnscr in regard to what they have giv en, of good or of bad, to humanity, our cntcrsesting age (which certainly is not open to the charge of having stood with its hands in its pockets) might perhaps be worse than put forth the plea, 'Dear me!

TnE supreme court of the United State has afirmcd the validity of the bill passed by congress in September last for fhe re striction of Chinese immigration. Thi is the measure that was rushed through both houses on the strength f a rumor that China had refused to ratify the pr Dosed new treatv with this countrv. al- though it was not disposed of finally b the senate until definite news of the : re jection of the treaty had been received The circuit court in ban Francisco ren dered a decision in October upholding the exclusion of Chinese immigrants un der the new law, and that decision is now ratified bv the hiebest authority. Then could be no reasonable doubt of th( nrht of congress to ra33 such a law. or that its action was in harmony with pub lie sentiment The limitation of immi gration in other directions is demanded,, and will doubtless regarded as a necessity.

The New York Com mercial Advert Uh r sursesta that some of our modern war ships and cruisers be present at the great naval review which is to take place at -Spithead, England, a few weeks hence, in honor of the visit of the German Emperor to Great Britain. The hint is a wise one. and should be followed, it i estimated that 100 or more vessels will take iart in that affair. Most of these a are of comparative recent construction, . and some of them are anions the mott active and formidable afloat. Every great country in Europe will be represent ed at the review, and by their most effi cient vessels. Undoubtedly it will be the gathering of modern war ships ever seen up to this time. The United States has half a dozen or more new vessel which could be detail ed to witness the spectacle off the British coast. Such a course would benefit the country in more senses than one. There is an opinion prevalent abroad that the United States has so war ships compar ing at all favorably with the vessels of the second or third grade in na'vies of the principle European Powers. We have now an opportunity' without any display of ostenation or vainglorious par ade, to show that this assumption is not based on fact. The steel cruiser recently constructed at our ship yards are as effi cient, both in build and equipment, as any craft of their class possessed by eyen Great Britcn or France. The knowledge of this fact, and of the additional fact that the vessels now under construction fere as active and powerful as any of the&e- will give the country u moral standing and prestige among the nations which would be of help to us in future interna tional controversies. Another important advantage would come to the country frem the presence of a few of its war ships at the coming na val pageant. - To some extent the designs or many of our newer vessels are based on foreign models. Most of them involve an innovation of some sort in construct ion and arrangement. This necessitates a new departure in the mode of handling and working the vessels. The chances are that our naval officers might get some new hints or suggestions of value by inspecting foreign methods and wit nessing foreign maneuvers. It is al together possible that some knowledge capable of being turned to good account; should the emergency arise, might be gained in this way. At all events the country would be pleased to see its navy represented at the review in British waters, and to thus show the world that even on the ocean the Ucited States has begun to acquire a power and dignity commensurate with its extent and indus trial importance.

Edward Hatch, some years ago, was taado tho butt of pinch fun, and was car tooned in New York papers tut ri.'Jins over tho New Mexican plains with his cavalrymen of the In inth regiment mounted on ostriches. Tho ridicule all camo about through a mis take. Gen. Hatch fonnd that the American horao troke down after little travel over the rough mountains, and in a private letter to an officer in Washington eaid that ho was making sorao experiments with tho Uitouticn of replacing the clumsy horses by tho agile and hardy Mexican burro, a little Jackass of immense strength. The ojHcer spoke of Gen. Hatch's plan, and tho newspaper men pub lhihed it, but tho man who wrote of it first, after seeing tha letter, mistook tho word "burro" for "bird," and having a vague idea that ostriches were raised on tho frontier. jumped at tho conclusion that tho ostrich mu-t bo tho bird meant. There was a roar of laughter in every post on tho frontier when tho papers began to describe Gen. Hatch1 ostrich regiment, but tho joka w.is not under stood for a lone: time. St. Louis Globe-jjemo- crat. Ostriches as Waltzers. "Ostriches, like cattle, aro liable to stam ped," said a Capo Town man now at the Talaco hotel, "but tho funniest thing they do is to waltz." "JIow, pray, is that done?" "Tho leader Pf the herd, generally an old mala ostrich, evidently thinks that his fol lowers should have some diversion on the long march from one pasture to another, so he be gins by slowly but gracefully turning round and round. In five minutes tho whole flock is doing the same, and it is quite a sight their long plumes waving in the wind until they conclude to quit nnd go their waj Music, of course, has nothing to do with their tkuieins." San Francisco Call. Don't. There are several "don'ts" which should be observed whenever two or more women are gathered together, but which, alas! are frequently disregarded. For instance, don't say to a friend, "How stout you aro grow ing!" No lady likes to bo told that she is pl owing or has grown stout. If it be a fact she is doubtless quite well awaro of It, and anxious to keep others from discovering it. Don't suy, "How thin you are!" either, for both women and men loatho to be told that they are either stout or thin. Unless you can say, "How well you are looking J" it is better to make no remark on tho personal appearance of your friend. Don't tell a friend who has on a particularly becoming gown or bonnet that she looks ten years younger in that than in anything you have ever seen her wear. Dou't tell her, either, that it is the most becoming thing you hayo ever seen her wear. That is an impeach ment of her tasto heretofore, though you probably have no such thought. Dress.

Mrs. Henry Villard, wife of tho remarka ble financier, ex-president of the Northern Pacific; ex-king of AVall street, ex-bankrupt. tho story of whoso rise and fall and restora tion makes ono of tho remarkable pages of American personal history, is the only daugh ter of WiUiam Lloyd Garrison. Mr. Garri son used to say: ,fI loya all my children, but especially Fanny." She had fau? brothers. One day the eldest, Wendell Phillips Garri son, brought homo a young German, a news- paper writer. His name was Heinrleh Ueu- gard. Tho moment ho and Fanny met it was ail over with them both it was lovo at first sight. Fhe did not hesitate because he was poor. If er father's home was poor, but sho had been very haipy in Jt for all that, and sho had been taught that lovo is poro than riches. Mrs. Villard is now 45 years old. Hit ji iietlte, with a well rounded figure and abundant gray hair and glorious dark eyes. -ZSew orjf Star. - , "Rats seem to bo very plentiful when your house is infested with them, but when you need them, and aro willing to pay 5 cents each for them, you find that they aro scarce enough," said a dealer In ferrets and other small animals capable of hunting or being hunted, who lives with his uncompanionable stock in a cellar in Harlem. "1 have only eleven rats on hand at present, and one of them has a sore throat a common disease among tho tribe and how 1 am to fill an order for fifty, to be delivered In Jersey City tho day after to-morrow, is more than I can telL "What do I want them for I Why, to sell them to the owners of ratting dogs, of course. I generally dispose of only half a dozen or so at a time, to some one who merely wants to test his terrier's powers, or to treat him to a littlo private exercise, but when a 'ratting match,' as the sport is called, Is to come off, I often receive an order for a couple of hun dred or inoro. Each owner provides tho rats for an opponent's dog, and they all want tho healthiest, strongest and most vicious ani mals they can get. It is not easy to supply them, and I like to get notice about a fort night in advanco, So that I can secure tho services of half a dozen rat catchers. "As tho siKrt of ratting grows more popu lar in and around New York, tho trade of rat catching is increasing. At present there aro about a score of professional catchers in the city. They never do any other business, and they aro not very industrious at the queer ono they havo cLoaen. You 6ee, it is not an occupation calculated to dray pup the high est attributes and strongest forces of a m&n-'g nature, and those engaged in it soon fall into rat like habits of their own. I cjon't know whether it is mere imagination on my part or not, but it certainly seems to mo that their faces gradually assume the contour of tho rat's countenance. When they are not at work they tub ditKfi f ; sometimes, too, they are drunk when they are working, aad they often are horribly bitten. Rats' fangs aro said to be poisonous, but I never knew of any harm beyond tho pain, and, perhaps, a littlo in flammation, o follow a bite. Perhaps tho alcohol In tho system of ' tho catchers acts as an antidote, as it docs in the case of a wound inflicted by a snake. "Tho trado might bo made fairly remuner ative if it pursued with more steadiness. There are two' distinct profits in it. The catcher, if he should bo a sober, respectable looking man, whom pei'sons would not fear to leavo alone at night in their houses or stores or f tables, could always command a good fee ftru thoso who desired to freo their promises of rats, and you can t-eadiiy miag- mo how largo that class Is in New York. Then there is no trouble found in selling -tho animals caught. The demand for them is in variably greater than tho supply, and good prices are obtained for them. "Very few rat catchei-s oolts traps. Some use an instrument like a long, slender pair of tongs, whilo others wear gloves, and trust entirely to their bands. Their modepf work ing is tho simplest thing in tho world. They sit down on tho floor, which is strewn with soma food that rats iiKe. i ney place near them a saucer of water. Rats seem to be tormented with a perpetual thirst, and every one of thein w ill tako a drink before ho re turns to his holo. While ho Is drinking is the catcher's opportunity. You may have no ticed, when you havo been watching a wild rat, that so long as you do not stir tho brute will show no terror. Frequently ho will ap proach closo to your feet, for ho ca!?;:3i recognize lifp in a motionless body; but tl:e instant you inove, bo it in oyer cp slight a de gree, ho vanishes like a dream. Tho catcher is as still as death until his victim is within a few inches of him, either with his Lead turned away, or bo oooupiec in drinking as to seo nothing but the water. Then the tongs, or the gloved hand, silently and stealthily descend, and tho rat is lifted from tae tloor and dropped info, a bag be tween tho catcher's knees. If ho squeals ail his fellows disappear as though tho earth had swallowed them, as indeed it has. But, how- over quickly tho capture may be made, one or other pf the rats in tho room is tolerably suro to see it and to give the alarm. Then tho catcher must begin a new vigil. Ho never has long to wait, however. A rat must'actu- aliy view or hear danger to detect it. He is utterly unsuspicious, repeated warnings aro thrown away upon him, and nothing that does not appeal directly to his senses can affect him in tho least. If no noise is mado ho comes out of his holo in a few minutes to tempt his fate again. A catcher could, and sometimes does, get a hundred or a hundred and fifty raU and plear tho premises of tho pests In a 6lngle night. In London, where ratting Is much more in voguo than it is here, some of tho 'fancy' tried to breed rats. They succeeded to a cer tain extent, and produced a great number Cut they were no good. Being in fact do mestic animals, they wero not much afraid of the terriers, and tho dogs, as a consequence, killed them in a tardy, half hearted way that would have insured their defeat against time or rivals in a pit. a Dig rat is not always tho best. He Is apt to bo slow and to dio without a struggle. The largo fat sewer rat is generally overfed and can neither run nor fight. A medium sized animal, thin and hungry, is probably the best When he is cornered ho will often spring at the terrier, grip him under tho lower jaw, out of reach of - his teeth, and hold on for dear life. If the dog knows his business ho will waste no time in trying to scrape hid off with bis paws, no will go straight on with bis work. killing tho other rats in the pit, until tho ono that is clinging to his chin gets tired and drops off, when ho will not be likely to have another chance. "Some people amuse themselves by hunt ing rats with ferrets. There is not much .sport in that. A rat will do all he knows to save himself when a dog is pitted against him, but when he sees a ferret be feels that his doom has found him', and he bows to his destiny. A rat never makes an effort to es capp when his small natural destroyer ap proaches. He cowers on the floor and does cot move when the feiret takes him by the throat and proceeds to suck the blood out of bis body. Ah, hero's Jack. I hope be bos the rest of tho Jersey City order." A slouchy, frowsy, lame young man en tered the cellar. His face 'seemed to support the dealer's theory, for it bore the impress of his trado and some likeness to bis captured victims. Ho was a catcher, and he carried the rats required about his person. Ho drew several from bis pockets, and many mora from the interior of hid vest, his cap, and all sorts of odd places about his clothing. ' They seemed to be too broken down in Fpirits to care what became of them, but the dealer saiJ they would pull themselves together as -ererred who c; soon C I hey saw a black and tan or a rough ccAtM p?rrijj. He dropped them into a bar rel, nnd gave the young man $I.U5, with whi..-h he limped away to a liquor saloon across the street New York Sun. TELEPHONE EXCHANGE. Ji ulil Jos. Hank of Cuss county.
