THE BRITISH SUCCESSION, ‘The closing scenes of the life of King Edward VII. fn their contrast between the splendor which was planned and the sadness which wi recall the Iast days of President McKinley mruck down just at the crowning celebration of the Buffalo Bxposition. however, and the succession to the throne will under the circumstances have less effect on the Govirnment of Great Britain than the death of a President has on the Government of the United States. Indeed, the accession of George V. will really make no difference whatever in the British Government, The King reigns, but he does not govern. higher title he has far less authority than our P dent. To give two instances, the King does not choose his Cabinet, and he does not attempt to direct legislation, His Cabinet is chosen for him by Parliament, or by the leader of the majority in Parliament, and in case of an adverse vote he must accept another Cabinet regardles of his preference. The British system VOLUME 42..... the executive departments being responsible to the sov- ereign. As for such a thing as attempting to control or even influence legislation, as President Roosevelt has done, for instance, in the Cuban question, that is simply un- thinkable in England. It is not conceivable that any king would under any circumstances attempt so rash an undertaking. Great Britain is fortunate in the solidity and firm- ness of her well-established Institutions, and the ques tion of the royal power is as well settled as the qu tion of the royal succession, The New Rule,—The New York and New Jorsey Company will pay for tts franchise at the the Pennsylvania Railroad for a similar franchis 19 one of the welcome and « frults ef r Tunnel a rate oh rm, RESULTLESS RAIDING, ‘That Is a stirring story which is told in the morn-| ing papers of the raid made by Capt. Chapman and his} army of twenty-five policemen on “The” Allen's Sixth | avenue pool-room. The secrecy and suddenness of the Movement, the dash with which it was executed, and the use of scaling laders and axes almost remind one of the storming of Stony Point by iad’ Anthon, Wayne during the Revolution. But it is ‘hopeless to expect the New York public to feel any enthusiasm over this display of police the: atricals. They have seen the same spectacle before, not once but many times, and they have grown tired of the inevitable fizzle which ends it, They remember the personally conducted raids of Jerome during the “campaign and the lame and impotent conclusion when i only a few weeks ago Jerome asked to have the cases i arising out of them dismissed.

Abnormal, perverted, degenerate, per- haps; but is she really insane? This is a question not only interesting but important. Rapid Expansion.—it was known that Roosevelt was not 4 only an expansionist but also an expander, but It was not expected that he would grow too big for the White House in Jess than a year after coming Into it 1S; CO-EDUCATION A FAILURE? As far as Chicago University is concerned co-educ tion has been declared a failure. In spite of the protests of the female students and teachers and of the friends of the higher education of woman, the order has gone forth and segregation is hereafter to be the rule. The young women will get the same education as the young men, . but they will get it separately, It might be asked why co-education should be a} failure at Chicago when it is a success at Cornell and! Syracuse and at other colleges. There is no answer,, except that after a fair trial Chicago objects to it. One i influencing cause may be the discontent of the male students over their being outnumbered by the girls. If! : this 's the case co-education is a failure in Chicago 4 because it is too povular, But it is certainly far from being a failure elsewhere. THE BREEZY ROOF GARDENS, ‘The roof garden that blooms hereabouts in early June and sheds its frolicsome fragrance upon metropolitan Joyseckers all through the summer evenings seems to have been considerably too previous in blossoming this year.

In the Annapolis National Cemetery are more than 2,00 graves of soldiers, a great many of whom died in the An- napolis Hospttal after the olvil war, There are names upon the headstones from almost every State, both North and South. Among the inscriptions on headstones appears the following: DORNS MORNS, Ills, Surrounded as it was by John Smiths, James Browns and other commo: names, the name “Dorn Morns,’ means "Golden Wall,” looks strange, to say the least. Perhaps the man bur- fed there wished his death to remain unknown, and gave the name to dis- guise his own, WHY RATS GNAW, Some years ago a German stientist began to study rats and mice with the object of ascertaining why they are so fond of gnawing wood, and, Indeed, al- most anything on which their teeth can be employed, and news now comes that his patient researches have at last been crowned with success, He @ayé that these animals, and especially rats, have teeth which grow longer every year, and keep growing longer during their entire life, and that the object of the animals in gnawing. {s to keep them at a length, as otherwise it A noble horse hae been dissected and portions of him divided among the anke mal Kingdom.
