T lull, and assured confidence in its future is felt by all who realize its immense mineral wealth. Most of the mines at present are paying handsome dividends, and developing is constantly going along. The monthly yield of the gold mines in the Witwatusrandt district exceeds 82.000,000, and from the known resources it is fair to say that ere long the monthly yield will be doubled. Most of the work in the mines is done by negroes, there being more than 40,000 employed in this district. Their daily wages average about 02 cents, and suflicient corn meal is given them to make their porridge, which is their principal food. The white miners are employed to act as foremen over gangs of negroes, and there are really more whites here than there are places for them. Johannesburg is full of strength and vitality, and bids fair to be a great city some
day soon.
The Ferocious Afghans. tVith all the races with which the English have come in closecontact, the Afghans are the most uncivilized in nature and grain. They are fierce, bloodthirsty, fanatical and treacherous; their good qualities are of the elementary, domestic kind, and their highest virtue is courage, which they possess in a conspicuous degree. They are uncivilized in the sense that they are without any national cohesion or responsibility. Each man is independent of his fellows and rejects the authority of even tribal chiefs. No doubt there are in every clan or tribe men of prominence for their wealtli or prowess <«r canning, who command a certain f wij-v-.- But (heir influence is personal and temporary and vanishes as quickly as it has sprung up.

The Paradise of Philatelists. It may not be generally known that Paris is the great postage stamp market of the world, and that there arc more men who gloat over a black Bermuda, or go into ecstasies over a yellow something else, than in any other capital. There is a regular Bourse held every Thursday and Sunday in a corner of the Champs Elysees, where hundreds of men. women and boys congregate with their postage stamp albums and packages of stamps for sale and exchange. There is almost as big a gabble of tongues going on there as at thp regular Bourse, and so great lias the throng become that the authorities contemplate roofing in that particular part. It is said that thousands of francs change hands there every market day.
A REMARKABLE WOMAN. How Mr*. Cotton Cot Her Signal* Adopted by the Amerimn Navy. One of Washington’s remarkable women is Mrs. Martha J. Coston, now advanced in years but brilliant in mind as ever, and able to look back upon a life full of achievements. Mrs. Coston.says the Illustrated American,is the woman who, almost single-handed and in the face of tremendous difficulties, brought the Coston signals to their present perfection, heft a widow at the age of twenty-one with three children and no resources, she sc^ out bravely to develop an idea which she found indicated among her husband's papers. This idea was to furnish colored signals at night for ships in tlie same way that colored flags were used by day. The trouble was to find the chemicals which would produce the necessary colors, red, white and green, in sufficient intensity. Mrs. Coston worked on this problem for many months, and after a series of failures finally succeeded, and the Coston signals were adopted by the American navy and used during our late war. What they did during that war is known to every naval officer, although scant justice lias been rendered to the plucky woman who furnished them. Admiral Porter took Fort Fisher by the aid of the Coston signals, starting the battle at night, as he was able to do by this means. His success broke the back of the war. It was the Coston signals which saved twentyseven lives of men on board the famous Monitor lost off Cape Ilatteras. It is a pleasure to hear Mrs. Coston tell of her adventures in foreign lands, for she has traveled all over the world and seen the great people of many nations. Half the countries of Europe have adopted the Coston signals, and whenever she arrives in one of these capitals Mrs. Coston is treated and received as a benefactor of humanity. Mrs. Caston in her travels through Europe was received by the pope, by Queen Victoria, by the French emperor and Empress Eugenie, by the king and queen of Sweden, and by a host of lesser celebrities. Mrs. Coston will send a handsome exhibit of the Coston signals to Chicago under the direction of her son. One of the most striking features of the exhibit will he the Coston aerial signals, which are shot into the air by pistols, and can be seen at an immense dis-
tance.
An Adopted ."Mink. On a farm near Lewiston, Me., is a curious pet and a strange adoption. One day one of the dogs around the farm brought in a baby mink, its eyes hardly open; a helpless creature, so inoffensive that the dog would not harm it. At that time the family cat
'To
little girt of the house put the mink in with the kittens. The cat made a few objections, lint finally accepted the addition to her family and cared for the stranger. When the mink and kittens all had their eyes open, they formed an exceedingly happy family. The mink played as gleefully as the rest, and the mother cat was just as anxious for its safety as for any of her offspring. Princely Plumes. The plume of the prince of Wales, worn on state occasions, is said to be worth fifty thousand dollars. The feathers, an English writer says, are pulled from the tail of the feriwah, one of the rarest and most beautiful birds of India. Great expense and trouble are necessary to capture the bird, which is found only in the wildest jungles. The feathers are taken from the live cock.
ENVIOUS BRITONS.
Uncle Sam's Naval Improvements Open Their Eyes.
The New Amrrlran Navy I* Regarded In England a* an t'anereuary Fxpeast —What TS ■ v.T: , f iiuv Hilt B'ar*hi|,*.
How far the naval renaissance of the United States results from any conviction on the part of the people that warships are required, or appeals to national sentiment promoted by the shipbuilding interest, is not worth inquiry, says the London Standard. The Americans know their own business best. Nevertheless, to an outsider, the great republic seems to have begun to build war vessels when they are least requisite. Her seaboard is of enormous extent, but is in little peril from any enemy, and science within the past ten or fifteen years has enabled harbors to be defended by mines, torpedoes and other deadly means which were unknown ip the days “before the w ar.” One cannot well imagine the circumstances under which the United States need, unless by the most deplorable folly or intentional aggressiveness, drift into hostilities with any otlier great power. The republic is in the happy position of having—except in one instance, and as that instance is qur Canadian fellowsubjects we decline to discuss any such possibilities as an Anglo-American war—no neighbors at all tit to cope with her. The nearest are, indeed, navyless, and all the rest know their own resources too well to think, even if there was tlie least chance for a quarrel. of trying conclusions with her. Chili, It was at one time believed, might perhaps give passing trouble. But even at that period the United States fleet in the Pacific was quite equal to that of the smaller powers. The good fortune of the country which recently made so creditable a display of sea-going fighting machines is that she can concentrate all her fleets along her home coasts. She does not possess colonies scattered all over the world and requires none. She has no fleets of corn ship* to convoy from the otlier side of the ghilic, as a power like England must when by any evil accident we are threatened with difficulties by one of the huge armed statesof Europe. The southern cruisers almost ruined the merchant fleet, but It was not the absence of a navy that for twenty years subsequently prevented the Americans from recovering their carrying trade. If, therefore, the republic is prepared to continue a pacific career, neither to annex nor "protect,” and to refuse—in accordance with the early and, it seemed, the fixed policy of the republic—to form any “entangling alliances” or acquire any "territory beyond the sea,” a much smaller navy than that she is so feverishly building might serve all the wants of the country. At present, including gunboats and other small craft, the United States navy numbers eighty vessels, mounting more than eleven hundred guns, and including among this generally indifferent roll of ships some very fine specimens of themodern floating battery. The Chicago, Philadelphia, Newark, San Francisco, Atlanta and York town are all craft of a formidable description. In aildition there is the dynamite-gun vessel Vesuvius, the efficiency of which has still to be proved; and, as it is not unlikely to be quite as destructive to friends as to foes, the most sincere desire of every well-w isher (including her inventor) is that this outcome of American ingenuity may forever remain a speculative curiosity for such friendly exhibitions as that of the Columbian naval review.
STEALING BONES AND RELICS.
Grave Robber* at Work at an Indian Iturylng Ground la Connecticut. The Pequot Indians in Conneeticut, last of that famous tribe of Indians, are aroused over a recent attempt on the part of white men to rob their burying ground of bones and relics. The Innians discovered some men at work on a grave in which, it is said, a descendant of Robina Cassinament was buried. Several half-breeds at once gave chase to the men, who fled. The burying ground is near the middle of the Pequot reservation, which is a rough, heavy wooded tract of land about one mile wide by two long in the southwest corner of North Stonington, seven miles north of Mystic Ridge. It is known as an Indian town. The state long ago set it off to the exclusive use and practical ownership of the descendants of the Pequots, so long as any remain. About a dozen families of mixed blood have remained there during the last twentyfivo years. The last pure-blood Pequot to die was Amanda Nedson, about three years ago. The Pequot descendants are for the most part poor, but, according to the Philadelphia Telegraph, they have the highest regard for the burial place of their race and for years have been tormented by relic hunters. For some time there appears to have been an unusual demand for Pequot Indian relics. Many rich finds have rewarded explorers in tlie Indian ceiiK t'iVh - ■ IS.-n?.- In southeastern Connecticut and southwestern Rhode Island have been found large quantities of Indian pipes, beads, arrow heads, laces, drills, knives and trinkets worn by the Indians. If anyone is found trespassing in the Pequot cemetery it may lie at the risk of his j life, for the Indians are said to be very angry.
THE PACIFIC SQUADRON. Chief Cause of the Numerous Desertions of Seamen.
Stringent Rentrlctlon* Krmlvr service at Mar« Island So I'nbraralile Timt C’om- ^ . j/*, i:*; t2 I**
Capt. Ludlow’* r^qniKit inn to the secretary of the navy for men for tlie Behring sea fleet and the desertion by the dozens of sailors from north-bound vessels in Puget sound have attracted considerable attention in marine circles to tlie fact that enlistments in the United States naval service arc becoming beautifully less every day. Not only is the Behring sea fleet having a hard time getting men. but the news has leaked out that the whole Pacific squadron is short of seamen, and that then 1 exists a spirit of discontent among those that are enlisted which almost borders on mutiny. A San Francisco Call reporter interviewed a dozen or more seamen from the navy yard separately, and as thesr men's statements, with tlie exception of two, agreed in every particular, it might Vie well for the secretary of the navy to investigate the cause of some of the men’s complaints. “Why do men of the Pacific squadron desert?” was asked of a seaman of the United States steamer Alliance. He answered: “For the simple reason that the restrictions placed on tlie men of the Pacific squadron are more stringent than at any other naval station of the i 'aited States. A sailor is allowed absolutely no privileges at all tvhen on duty at Mare island. Unlike the British navy yard at Esquimau, or even the yards on the Atlantic coast of the United States, Mare island is bound up with a lot of rules and red tape whicli makes a sailor a slave in every sense of the word every hour of the twenty-four. Vessels of the Pacific squadron, especially those on local coast and Behring sea duty, appear to be commanded after the fashion of the Mare island navy yard. Fines are imposed for the least incivility and breach of discipline, and no other time save that alloted for shore leave is given to seamen during which they might call their souls their own. “Mo degenerated has become the naval service of the Pacific coast through the enforcement of trilling and aggravating rules at the navy yard and also on board of vessels of the Pacific squadron that good men will no longer sign to serve here. The consequence is every greenhorn that comes along is picked up, and the average crew of a naval vessel on a Pacific station consists of the scum of all nationalities. Naval seamen dread duty at Mare island about as much as they do life in a prison. Nearly all the time of the men stationed at the yard is spent in bowing and scraping around officers and working on senseless jobs, sometimes of a very menial nature.” Several of the late crew of the Thetis, men from the Omaha and a few of the Monterey’s crew told stories almost identical with that of the Alliance man. Perhaps it is not the fear of a northern voyage alone which makes men desert the United States navy and renders the present scarcity of sailors so obvious.
CANNOT ACT THE FLUNKEY. American* Make Fool* of Themselves When They Undertake to He Snob*. The fact of the business is, we Americans do not know how to be snobs, and when we try to do the flunkey act we make fools of ourselves, says the Philadelphia Telegraph. When there is any walking backward or other sycophantic koo-tooing to be done we should therefore practice our steps in private and learn at least enough to avoid egregious blunders bef< ire appearing in public to make an asinine exhibition of our clownish stupidity. We laugh to scorn the servile flunkeyism of our British brethren, but they heat us at that sort of tiling out of sight. They are born and brought up in an atmosphere of class distinction. The line is sharply drawn with servility on one side and privilege on the other. A hereditary aristocracy, with titles, offices and honors that are grounded in the history of the country, naturally and, in a sense, proper ly commands the homage of a hereditary snobocracy. To cringe and to truckle is the inherited habit of the lower classes. They arc to the manner bom, and they know how to crook the pregnant hinges of the knee without falling on the nose. Furthermore, there is reason in it, as thrift follows their fawning. They find their profit in the obsequious smile; servility and assiduous humility are the terms on which they transact business, and to bend and to bow is pounds, shillings ajid pence in the
pocket.
There are no such arguments in favor of class feeling and class custom in this country, and indeed the case here Beems to be pretty much reversed, as it is tlie would-be aristocrats who are the toadies with us: the common folk, our plain people, as President Lincoln called them, being proverbially hide pendent of temper and manly in behavior. Tb.-rc l.s no rvuninry "•pin in American snobbery, and as to hereditary sentiment, that is indeed an absurdity among shoddyites who are afraid to inquire as to their grandfathers, dreading to find them among
