AMEBIC A 8 FOBS ION POLICY.
George W. Smalley, the London
correspondent of the New York Tri
bune,b&8 sent a cablegram to his paoer
regarding the proposed intervention of
the United States in the Armenian
question which will certainly have the
effect of making the American people
deliberate before consenting to throat
themselves into the hurly-burly of
European politics. Mr. Smalley says:
"There is a desire in Europe that
America should take part, for it can
itors. The sport, wa are in'ormed, i all
chat could be desired, and there in do dan
ger of accident.

About 3:35 Thursday afternoon a young
man about 20 years of age, apparently, ap
peared at theFirt National bank with a

would be welcomed by the European I H toar jn uh of the ooW, aDd nll)
powers as a repudiation ot the Mon
roe doctrine. If the United States is
entitled to say to Europe, 'hands off
in America,' Europe may equally ex
clude American influence from Euro
pean affairs. She may be in a position
to say, 'By taking part in the Arme
nian commission, with, perhaps, the
integrity of the Turkish empire at
stake, yon renounce the right to pro
hibit us from meddling with questions
touching America.' "
Mr. Smalley is often wrong, ' but
this time he ia absolutely right, says
: the San Francisco Chronicle. We
have no more business to interfere in
a conflict between the Sultan of Tur
key and his Armenian subjects than
we have to settle the succession to the
throne of Madagascar or the govern
orship, by whatever name it may be
known, of Afghanistan. It may snit
President Cleveland and Secretary
Oresham to seek, outside of this coun
try, an adventitious fame which they
.. have not acquired here, but a greater
man than they, George Washington,
warned his country against entangling
alliances, and, at least by implication,
conveyed the idea that onrs should be
a nation by itself, ready and willing
to treat on terms of equality with
every countiy in the world, but that
thev should come to us in lieu of our
going to them.
, The time is not ripe for us to take
an active part m European politico.
It may come; we may be forced by
- stress of circumstances to make our
selves known and felt; but when the
time comes it must be with a mailed
band, not with tha silken glove. Ar
taenia is not a proper fulcrum for the
lever with which Armerica soma day
may move Europe. Iet ns bide our
time and wait until a condition arises
- in which we can say "thus and so is
the law," and the civilized world will
accept oar decision as final and" con
clusive.
TEB PEKIN CAMPAIGN.
Several missionaries who were sta
tioned in China for fifteen or twenty
years, and who claim to have studied
people and country to some purpose,
do not share the general belief that
the Japanese will capture Pekin or
succeed in a war of conquest. They
admit that the Japanese army is sn
perior to that of China in discipline
and general ' efficiency, but' contend
that in nearly every case where a de
cisive victory was reported the J ap-
anese outnumbered the- Chinese, and
in one case three to one. They insist
that as the Japanese penetrate the
country toward the capita) they will
meet tne flower ot tne (Jhinese army
and be so harassed by hordes otT'irreg-
ular troops that the march will be in
effective if not disastrous. Dr. Biod-
gett expresses the opinion that the in
habitants of the interior of China know
Jess about the war with Japan than
the farmers of our far West, but when
the Japanese army penetrates the in
t ;rior or threatens the capital then i'
will be confronted by the masses of the
Chinese people.
The province in which IVkin is
situated is not much larger than Hit -
. nois, but it has a population of 27,
000,000, occupying district not well
cuitel toa military campaign, it is
reported that the high roads leading to
Pekin are well guarded, and that the
defenses of the city (it is a walled
town, with gates defended by fortitica
tions) are in good condition.
On the other hand, the successes of
the Japanese indicate a knowledge of
the weak points in the Chinese iine
and an ability to handle troops in ai
anemy's country. The invading army,
flushed as it is by success, must be
met not by hordes of people, but by a
well-diaciplined and superior force.

A THRILLING DETECTIVE STORY.
The Exploits of Two Government Sleuths
Told in a Public Document.
The government publishes a great
variety of matter in the course of a
year, from presidential messages to a
history of diseases of the gadfly, and
the variety of reading- matter has been
increased witllin the last few days by
the publication of a real detective
story, with diagrams according to
Gaboriau.
This is the history of the sandbagging
and robbery of a stamp clerk in the
Chicago post office one dark night last
winter, when the wind was whistling
around the corner and the sleet dash
ing against the windows. The story of
the crime and the vain search of the
two government sleuths for the crim
inal are given at great length and in
the minutest detail. All of this is cftn
tained in a pamphlet of eleven pages.
accompanying a claim of the late post
master for the amount of the robbery,
which he was compelled to make good.
There are a number of diagrams to
illustrate the story. One of them
shows "where the body of the clerk
was found," "the ' door where Miss
Jones came in,". "the window where
the robber escaped," "the door where
the robber entered," and other minute
details. Another diagram shows the
postal clerk as he stood at his desk, but
fails to represent the robber and the
sandbag, although everything else,
even to Miss Jones' desk, is portrayed
vividly.
Many pages of closely-printed type
are filled with the history of the efforts
of the government sleuths.
"There were two theories to work
upon," writes one of them: "First, that
Robinson had robbed himself and in
flicted upon himself the injuries to
cover up his crime, or that some one
familiar with the office -and with the
habits of Mr. Robinson had planned
and successfully put in execution the
robbery. I called to my assistance the
superintendent of the Pinkerton agen
cy of this city, who rendered me every
assistance in his power, without cost,
to get some clew to the perpetrators of
the bold robbery. We have . worked
upon -every plausible theory, but have
failed to get any clew to lead us on a
successful trail,"
The outcome of the work on these
two theories is reported as follows:
"The result of the investigation in
this case has convinced me of two
things: First, that it was a bona fide
robbery; second, that it was conceived
and planned, if not perpetrated, by
some one perfectly familiar with the
workings of that branch of the postal
department in this city, but the plan
was so well executed that up to the
present moment we have been unable
to get a single clew that would fasten
the guilty party."
So the robbery remains a mystery,
anoVthe thrilling story of the two gov
ernment sleuths goes on file in the an
nals of congress.

A WOLF FOND OF GIRLS.
Cnrlous Partiality Shown by at Chlcaa-o
jrarK AdidiiI.
One of the wolves in Lincoln park
used to be a pet. It was brought from
Arkansas when very young by a Lake
View man who used to make hunting
visits annually to the southwest, says
the Chicago Times. Before entering
public life it used to enjoy a large de
gree of freedom, and it seldom abused
the confidence reposed by its owner.
The Lake View man had a number of
berry bushes and a pear tree. When
fruit ripened it had been the habit of
boys in the neighborhood to steal most
of the fruit. But the young wolf
stopped them the very first season
after its arrival. No boy was safe in
the neighborhood of the vines or pear
tree.
But the wolf did have a liking for
little girls a liking more amiable than
that of its relative who is embalmed in
the tale of "Little Red Riding Hood."
After one season of disappointment the
boys learned of this partiality on the
part of the wolf and then they used to
get little girls to steal the fruit for
them. The girls would walk boldly in'
to the yard when the boys told them
there was no one watching, and if the
wolf approached one would stop and
play with him and the rest would get.
the fruit. But no amonnt of attention
would distract the wolf's attention so
that a boy could come in. He would
break away from the most enticing lit
tle girl and chase any boy over the
fence in short order. And he would
play around the little girls who were
stealing "the fruit, but he would never
offer to harm them.
However, the girls didn't like to be
used in that manner, and there came a
day when the boys could not eet them
to steal the fruit. After repeated trials,
and after watching the fruit grow so
ripe that if not soon removed it would
be ripe enough for the family, one
of the boys hit on ; an . excellent,
ruse. He went home and bor
rowed his sister's dress. Putting it
on, he climbed over the fence- and ap
proached the lair of the wolf. As he
prepared for a seductive gambol with
the wolf, another boy, clad in another
calico dress, climbed over the fence and
approached the pear tree. . But the wolf
was not to be deceived. Be made a
rush for the one nearest him and caught
the dress in his sharp teeth. He tore
the garment into shreds before the lad
could escape. And then he went after
tbe one who tried to beguile him into
play- This boy was 8, little less for
tunate, for the wolf bit him rather se
verely; eo the Lake View man sold him
to the park commissioners, and now he
frowns at boys and girls alike from be-
tuna tne oars.
An -Original Flan Devised Whereby the
People of the Tolcanle Zone Slay
Be 'Warned of Approach
lug Peru.
Senor Francisco Estrada, professor
of physics in the state college of San
Luis Potosi, Mexico, has submitted an
original plan to the government for
foretelling earthquakes in the volcanic
zone of Mexico, by means of the tele
phone, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Since the strong, earthquaka
which visited the Valley of Mexico on
November 2. last, killing eighteen per
sons, he has made a special study of
this class of disturbances and their
preceding signs. He has been making
a long study of means of prediction for
these destructive disturbances, and is
sure he has made a discovery of value,
which value can only be appreciated
by the inhabitants of the volcanic re
gions. In the course of his very inter
esting report the author says:
".With the telephone and the more
recent invention, the microphone, and
with daily simultaneous observations,
taken in the volcanic zone, which com
prises Vera Cruz, Puebla, Mexieo and
Guadalajara, I believe it possible to
definitely prognosticate earthquakes
and volcanic eruptions, as the result of
the great interior changes of the earth,
which change the geological construc
tion of our land. The noises that
trouble our long-distance telephones
that use the earth to complete the cir
cuits, noises hitherto unexplained, I
believe from my repeated observations
are originated from two principal
causes, atmospheric electricity and
underground electrical currents, which
come from depths more or less great.
In the first case they are easily dis
tinguished by exterior signs, such as
storms, thunder, lightning, etc., but
there are times when, the air being
perfectly still, singular noises like
murmurings, sand storms, blows or the
rubbing of a rough body upon the in
strument are heard at the telephone.
As this instrument is the most sensi
tive known, I judge it is suitable for
the recognition of the approaching
seismological phenomena, which cause
such great terror to the inhabitant of
volcanic zones. I propose the rational
study of these phenomena by the fol
lowing plan:
"Construction of various telephone
lines; let one connect the central gov
ernment meteorological observatory
with the base of the volcano Popocat
apetl, -being grounded in one of the
deepest cracks or crevasses, selecting
among them one containing a thermal

DOG THAT WORMS TOBACCO.
Kentucky Canine That Is Hired Out as a
Field Hand.
Speaking of funny things, did you
ever hear of a wonderful dog that is
owned by John A.' Durr, who lives' at
Vanarsdall, a little settlement down in
Mercer county, Ky.? -asks the Chicago
Times. This dog beats Dick Brace's
and Tom Quinlin's dogs all holler. He
is worth his weight in gold. lie worms
tobacco. He begins at the end of the
row and goes down the line at a lively
gait, and no worm is left to tell the
tale of the desolation wrought. The
dog learned this trick by following
Durr's little boys. When the boys
would start down the row the dog
would follow along.
After watching the youngsters for
several days the dog caught on to the
work himself and took a great liking
to it. One day Durr went out to his
tobacco patch and found his boys play

strange thing ior boys to do. "Why
the devil ain't you worming tobacco?'
he yelled. "Ned's doing it," they yelled

found the bifr pointer dog busily en

was doing it faster than both the boys
could have done. Durr was tickled to
death. After his own patch had been
wormed he hired the dog out to his
neighbors at one dollar a day. All this
can be proved by two or three revenue
men who never lie. :
