GREAT NAVAL REVIEW.
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. Globe Democrat.

The Ostrich Regiment.
Geo. 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. Villard'n Romance.
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.

"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.
