THE SEAL QUESTION AGAIN.
It Is Claimed That tho l'nrl Union Ilavo
llesullcil In Itccular Slaughter.
Tha voryfir.it year's trial of tho Paris
rostrictiona seems to havo resulted in an
appeal from tho Unitod States to other
nations to stop pelagic sealing iu Bering
sea altogether next year. In proof of its
good faith our government, it is report
ed, would suspend its own seal killing
entirely on tho Pribilof islands at
much loss of rovcuuc, and perhaps at
tho risk of having to indemnify tho
lessees of tho islands.
Tho fact is that our friends, tho Vic
toria scaler?, overdid their business dur
ing tho last season, and tho now Paris
rules enabled them to overdo it. They
began with a great outcry against tho
rules, holding a meeting and intimating
that their occupation was gone. This,
however, was possibly intended for ef
fect on tho British parliament. But
when it had uo effect they went to
work at tho beginning of tho season
with their customary energy, and tho
result was that of breaking all records
in their year's catch. They took, ac
cording to tho published statements,
about 05,000 skins. Theso represent
presumably a still larger number of seals
slaughtered, though not (jnito so largo
an excess as if firearms had been used.
I Add the number taken by American
i vessels, as well as by tho Russian and
1 Japanese, and it will be seen that tho
slaughter of the animals during tho
year must havo been enormous.
IIow largo a proportion were fcecured
in Bering sea does not appear by the
statements thus far mado public, but it
has been said that tho Triumph, which
made the champion catch, surpassing
ia fact anything before known, obtained
more than two-thirds of Ler seals with
in the waters of Bering sea within
seven weeks, although those were not
open until Aug. 1.
The result of the investigations mado
by Mr. Hamlin of tho treasury depart
ment confirms tbe views entertained by
our own nay officers in tho patrol fleet
that the ammals aro fast diminishing,
and that tho Paris rules aro not check
ing tho diminution. The consent to a
year's halt in pelagic sealing by all na
tions is perhaps the best remedy for ex
isting evils. Tho nost question is as to
how many nations wiil agree to this
proposal. It would be better if the re
striction should apply to both sides of
tho north Pacific, by the co-operation of
Russia and Japan, but England's ac
ceptance of tho arrangement would
alono justify our government in carry
ing it out. New York Sun.
MUST LEARN TO SMOKE
Thoe Women IVlio Will l'crsbt In Oe-cupj-iag
the Itrsertctl "Smokers."
A few months ago the Philadelphia
street car companies began running
smoking cars in response to a popular
demand for them. It has been found al
most impossible to keep women out of
j these cars, aad, to make matters worse,
tho smokers, saabla to resist the claims
of politeness, have been cheerfully sur
rendering their seats to tho women.
Things havo now got to such a pass that
the lath r have become masters of the
situation.
"Day by day," says an observer,
1 "tho feminine travel upon tho smoking
j cars has increased. That roan is lucky
i who can now cliLg to tho edges of the
j car and Jondly hope that he may smoke
I in peace after the long journer is over
and be has reached the secluded pre
cincts of his offico or heme. The women
net only claim the smoking car as their
own, but they have began to staro cold
ly at such men as now venture timidly
into the cars which vrtro prepared es
pecially for them. "
Tho question whether tho men have a
right to smoke in a smoking car in tbe
presence of women ha.i been settled by
the latter iu the negative, and ait otleud'
er was actually ejected from one of
these cars the other day by a man ac
oompaaying an indignant woman. What
makes the persistence of tho women sin
gular is that the smoking cars are much
less comfortable and attractive than
thoe provided for general use. The
Philadelphia liowspapers aro coura
geously supporting the men in this emer
gency and urging them to stand on their
rights. "Tho women," ono newspaper
makes bold to say, "must yield tho cars
to men, or they (tho women) must learn
to smoke. " Now York Post.

The price for 1S03 hicycles ha? been
quito definitely settled for tho coming
season, as inauy of tho leading manu
facturers have announced their determi
nation to list their wheels at $100.
Thero are many exceptions, however,
and some of tho prominent makers will
adhero to their 1894 lists, while other
manufacturers will put their list price
below $100.
There is, however, an almost univer
sal expression from manufacturers in
regard to tho quality of their machines,
which indicates that there will bo a
general improvement in material, work
manship and finish all along the line.

THIS WHALE Z LOADED.
With n Danccroo.i Homb Under Ills Hide
lio Challcncca Alt Comers.
Tho steam whaler Bulvcdcro arrived
from a year's whaling cruise Wednes
day with only five bperm and right
whales to her credit. When sho left port
last December, she went iu search of
sperm whales in tho South seas, but
with poor success. Tho first ono that
tho crows in tho boats got within reach
of was near tho Sandwich Islands. It
was a monster sperm whale, and all fivo
boats put off in pursuit of it. Ono that
was commanded by Mato'Philip Cook
crept up to within rango of it, and a
bomb to which a lino was attached was
successfully fired into it, but tho esplo
sives with which tho bomb was charged
failed to work.
Away the whale went, skimming
along at a frightful rate jnst under tho
surface and lashing tho water into foam
in his agony. Tho long lino was soon
run out, but its end was securely fas
tened to tho boat, and tho frail craft
was soon flying along in tow of tho
whale. Tho monster did not seem to
relish being mado a tugboat of, and ho
stopped and turned on his pursuers. For
a moment ho watched the occupants of
tho small boat again slowly creeping
upon him. When about half of tho in
tervening spaco had been covered, tho
whalo suddenly flipped his hugo tail in
tho air and went under tho surfaco of
tho ocean. A moment later ho roso
within a few yards of tho boat and
went at it with a rush, his hugo jaws
open and showing every indication that
a whale can of anger. Before another
shot could be fired tho monster rolled
over and caught tho boat between his
jaws. Thero was a crushing of timbers,
and all tho crew but ono went flounder
ing in tho wake. The missing man was
Andrew Cook, and ho sat in tho bow of
the boat just where tho great jaws camo
together. It is supposed that ho was
taken in tho whalo's mouth, and as tho
monster sank after his attack tho man
was carried down far below tha surface
and did not como up again.
The men in tho other boats arrived
and picked up their struggling com
rades, but tho crews wero too much
afraid to continue tho attack, and they
put back to the ship with all speed.
When the whalo nest camo to the sur
face, he again made an attack on the
boat he had wrecked, and ho did not
leave it nntil it was smashed into kin
dling wood. For five days after that
tho whale remained about tho ship in
viting attack from the small boats, but
the infuriated monster was let alone,
and now the South sea has a giant fish
swimming about in its waters with a
highly esplosivo and dangerous bomh
secreted under its thick coat of blubber
that is liable to explode at any moment.

An Interesting Little Story About the
Trcci, Leading Ladles, Etc.
All London is laughing in its sleeve
just now over an unexpected incident in
Beerbohm Tree's family circle. Some
days ago it was officially announced that
Mrs. Patrick Campbell would be Mr.
Tree's leading woman during his ap
proaching American tour. This occa
sioned surprise in London, becauso it
was known that Mrs. Tree, a very
charming actress herself, was opposing
this project tooth and naiL
The Trees have been married for 15
years, and as they have been blessed with
no small twigs Mrs. Tree has been able
to devote herself heart and soul to her
husband and her art. She has been her
husband's leading woman for so long
that naturally she resented another ac
tress taking her place. In fact, so strong
was the opposition Mrs. Tree brought to
bear that Mrs. Campbell's engagement
was called orT, but during tho last fort
night circumstances have arisen thar
will compel Mrs. Tree to remain at
home until after tho month of April,
and the joke of the matter is that Mrs.
Tree herself is so delighted that she has
written to Mrs. Campbell and begged
her to take her placo in Mr. Tree's com
pany. 2ew York Sun.

Consular advices received at tho de
partment of state warn Americans
against emigrating to Mexico with a
view to permanent settlement with in
sufficient means or without informing
themselves in a reliable way as to
the prospects for earning livelihoods.
While thero aro undoubtedly good op
portunities in Mexico for enterprise,
frugality and thrift, it is, like other
countries, a laud of varying conditions,
and it often happens that disappoint
ment is the result of emigration under
taken upon insufficient; or misleading
information or without resources which
are always necessary to success in a new
country.
Many Americans have been induced
by alluring statements as to tho cheap
ness of coffee raising, etc., to emigrate
to Mexico within the past year, and
some have lost their all by so doing.
For these reasons consuls deiro to cau
tion Americans against the representa
tions of speculators, who aro always on
the watch for tho unwary. Philadel

raragraphs That Contain Information For

I have received a number of letters
asking mo to disclose tho names of tho
"syndicato" that is making ono pretty
young married woman so very happy by
their well distributed attentions and
favors.
It would bo cntiroly unfair to telL
Thero is no fun in starting scandal. It
is only proper to comment upon matters
as they are, as the world knows them
and sees them.
Tho syndicato and tho object of its de
votion wero all to bo seen at tho horso

Their names aro immaterial. It is tho
originality of tho idea and tho woman's
complacency that make the subject
amusing.
The dudes of tho Knickerbocker club
aro having an iron extension built over
tho sidewalk to protect their pretty var
nished boots and greased hats as they
pass in and out of tho club to and from
their carriages.
It really is a nuisance in stormy
weather to get one's boots gummy or
one's shirt bosom rained on while get
ting from a cab to tho door, and I
should think that other clubs would fol
low tho sensible example set by tho
dudery.
Now, chappies, open your brainboxes

A ROYAL SCANDAL.
Ilather n. IJad Breakup Uettrecn the Prince
of Waldcisar and His Wife.
It is impossible for newspapers any
longer to ignoe the scandal which has
been talked about iu every court in
Europe for months past. Tho persons
most affected are Prince Waldemar of
Denmark and his wife, born Princess
Marie of Orleans. The couple were mar
ried in ISSo and havo three children.
In the lat year or two there havo been
frequent quarrels. The pair aro now
apart, the prince remaining with his
children in Copenhagen and tha prin
cess'stay Lng wi th some members of her
family in France. If the friends and
relatives do not succeed in reconciling
the young people, there will be an ac
tion for divorce.
The princess accuses her husband of
unfaithfulne;sand it is alleged against
her that her eccentricities havo made
her name a byword in "Denmark. It is
asserted that she is a habitual taker of
morphine and an excessive smoker of
cigarettes, even in tbe public streets;
that sho has shown an absurd and im
prudent partiality for the firemen of
Copenhagen and is constantly attending
conflagrations and distributing cigars
and cigarettes among the officers aad or
dering liquor for the men, and that sho
was so lacking in good taste as to have
herself photographed in fireman's uni
form, with the result that copies of that
photograph aro to be found in all tho
fire stations.
Furthermore, the princess is accused
of having upon more than ono occasion
insulted the lato Czar Alexander, and
also her niothcr-in-law, Qacen Louise,
to tho great pain and annoyance of the
entire family. Such is the husband's
case against hiswife. The latter has
made no statement of her grievances,
which are understood to be numerous,
beyond the general chargo of miscon
duct. Copenhagen Letter.
John Hull's Greediness.
Ono of tho recent incoming steam
ers brought Max O'Rell again to our
shores. At the usual entertainment held
the last night at sea for tho usual cause
the benefit of the seamen this accom
plished foreigner and critic of all na
tions was chairman of tho evening. In
announcing the programme M. Blonet
remarked that the preeecels cf tho even
ing's entertainment were for tho benefit
of two American institutions and one
English enc, "though, " he atlded. "they
will probably bo divided in just the re-,
verse proportion." Having thus em
phasized John Bull's greediness, 'ho
went on: "Every effort has been made
to secure all the talent to bo found on
the bhip. The cabin has been invited to
cot! tribute, anil the steerage would prob
ably have assisted if it had not been so
busy drafting a new constitution for the
United States." New York Times.
The First Was Last.
The race between tho ttosmcrs De

from Galveston for the honor of being
the first cotton ship to enter tho Man
chester ship canal almost ended in dis
aster. Tho Darlington . arrived in tho
Mersey and anchored. The Delano, ar
riving a few hours later, mado a dash
for the canal entrance, taking tho risk
of tho unfavorable state of tho tide.
This made the Darlington's captain
augry, and he unwisely followed, vith
tho result that he was stranded on a
mud bank and had to wait for several
hours for a turn in tho tide, tho Delano,
of course, eai!y winning tho race..
