The German newspapers have uscd some pretty strong language in connection with the affair. ‘There is probability also of warm and pointed diplomatic correspond- ence over the action of Gen, Dodds, the French commander in Dahomey, who has expelled from that country several Germans who were engaged in supplying the Dahomeyans with guns and ammunition to be used in the fight the natives are making against the Gallic troops. ‘The Count of Paris has appeared for a little while; long enough to issue another manifesto’ calling on the mo: archiets of Franch to come right up and make a noble effort to overthrow the republic and re- instate the power the Count of Paris is sup- posed to represent.

The young woman walked from the Embankment through Piccadilly, Regent street, Bond street and other fashionable West End thoroughfares, followed most of the time by a howling mob of street gamins. Finally she took refuge in a "bus, and the conductor promptly charged her double fare for the extra space oc- cupied. It is now safe tosay that the crinoline crisis in England has been safely passed.

It will not be easy to fill our consulates in foreign lands with the kind of men the Presi- dent says he wants. Capable business men, with experience in the conduct of affairs, who are able not only to perform the routine duties of their consulates, but master and develop the possibilities of increased trade with the coun- tries to which they are sent, are not easily in- duced to go into the government service. Such men are usually well established at home and full of responsibilities which they cannot afford to lay down for the honor and emoluments of the average consulate. There are compara- tively few consulates where the salary is much more than the earnings of many clerks and me- chanies, and still which would not involve a financial sacrifieo for a successful business man to accept. —Apringfleld Republican. +++ —___ Slandering Mossrt.
