Legal Recognation of Treason. Col. F. C. Denison, M. P., was asked by a labor union to present two peti- tions in Parliament. One was in favor of a statutory holiday ; and he gladly consented to present that. The other was for a plebiscite on the destiny of Canada, one of the alternatives being political union with the States. He declined to present that, and pointedly replied that a plebiscite on that subject would be a legal recognition of treason. Col. Denison took the right ground. Parliament could not possibly sanction tt plebiscite on such a question. After our Barley. It is stated that the American Secre- tary of Agriculture will order the pur- chase of many thousand bushels of Canadian barley for need with which to supply the farmers of the United States with a view of making the experiment of raising there the superior quality now grown in Canada. This will be an effort to meet the demand of the brewers' -of New York and the Eastern States for Canadian barley. The effort of 11c- Kinley to compel them to use Ameri= can burley only has proved a failure. There are some natural conditions that a tariff enactment cannot fight. Just how the Wilson Bill will emerge from Congress cannot be predicted; but if the Democrats do not want to alienate one of the influences that helped pile up Cleveland's majority in New York State in '02, they will put the barley duty at the old figure. The action of the House of Representatives was a compromise between the McKinley duty and the former tax : but the Senate may compel a return to good sense and press the duty down to the original figure. if Secretary Morton has any notion that this scheme of lila for planting Canadian seed in Attlee(• can soil will solve the problem, he 's doomed to disappointment.

BOSCO'S 'BENEFIT. Of all the successful performers who stepped into the arena of Galiaxy's fatuous circus, none obtained such a de- gree of popular approval as did Signor Alfredo Bosco and his 8 -year-old sou Al- fonso. Whether it was due to the cleverness of their feats, the daring skill displayed in the execution of them, or to a general attractive demeanor, cer- tain it is that from the day of their first appearance down to the end of the tour Signor Bosco and his son were received with a genuine enthusiasm such as to firmly establish them in the favor of the audience. When, therefore, it became known that the last night of the season was to be devoted to the benefit of these popular performers, •it was confidently predicted that the house would be a bumper. The proprietor, deeming it advisable on such an occasion that some special novelty &t, -,old be introduced into the progrtrmnte, it was with no small de- gree of interest that the populace that morning found the walls placarded with flaming posters, in the reddest of red ink, announcing that on this the last night of the season at Gallaxy's royal circus and hippodrome, specially set apart for .the benefit of Signor Alfredo Bosco, that eminent and world-renown- ed performer would, for the first and only time, attempt a novel and danger- ous feat—to wit, William Tell's historic and never -to -be -forgotten exploit of shooting an apple placed upon the head of his own sou, a pistol on this occasion being substituted for the obsolete bow and arrow. In private life Signor Alfredo Bosco's name was plain Alfred Green, and he was as little of Italian extraction as any one possessing the name of Green could well be. Distinguishing himself as a young man by marked and intrepid dar- ing found a inhe a field for his talents n a in tire circus arena. Having married an opera singer, a son was born to him, but the act cost the young mother her life, to Alfredo's inexpressible grief. The child soon became the father's idol, his whole existence becoming wrapped up iu that of the boy. It was for his sake that he worked doubly hard at his pro- fession, on his behalf that he denied him. self most of the comforts of life, and for his benefit, and in order that he might be ever near him, that he reared the lad in his own profession, never accepting an engagement unless the boy was in- cluded in it. When, therefore, the proprietor of Gallaxy's suggested to him the perform- ance of the feet alluded to, it may natur- ally be supposed that so fond a father hesitated' before committing himself to it, and when, under strong representa- tions, he finally consented it was with uo little anxiety and concern. Not that' he mistrue'ed Iris own powers in the least. He was a sure shot. One of Iris staple performances in the ring was to shoot with a pistol, while galloping on horseback, at a number of glass balls thrown promiscuously into tire air, and so accomplished was he at this teat that he seldom missed one, and never two, out of the number. Therefore, it was not personal considerations that made slim hesitate, but fear lest the lad by any untoward movement should jeopar- dize the action and endanger his own precious life. Nor was his anxiety decreased when, on the eventful day, he discovered that the boy was far from well. "It's only a headache, father," the lad said, in response to his questiouiugs. "I shall be better to -night I" Aud wi.eu night came the anxious father hung round the child's neck, secure from oh - servation, a little medallion portrait of his mother, which he always wore when any feat of a specially,dangerous nature was to be undertaken. 5 * * * For Over Jeffry Veers. nta.

The lad's ex- cessively pale face attracted general at- temttou now, but a few sympathetic voices raised in protest were howled down by the imperious demand, "Do it again I" Bosco showed some traces of excite- ment as he reloaded his weapon, and the operation scented to occupy a longer time. Could it be that hie nerve was failing hies, or was it the sight of the boy's face that filled him with dread? Again he raised the weapon aurid in- creased excitement and fired. The shot was again true, and for the second time the lad brought forward the shattered apple. Amid the applause that follow ed, BOSCO took the hand of his son and was about to retire when once more the un- reasonable shout was raised : "Do it again! Do it the third lintel" The per- former declined. Tire shouts grew louder and more de- termined. - '"Again I again !" resounded through the place, until it seemed that a mad infatuation had seized upon the people, and they were thirsting for a tragic end. "Again I again!" rose the shout, each time uttered in a more angry tone. It was flung front gallery to pit; the ampi- theatre caught it up and threw it back again, until the whole house rang with the tumultuous demand. Stilt Bosco declined, until on a per- sonal appeal from the proprietor, who feared tine growing storm, he reluctantly yielded. When it was seen that he hat given way. a wild shout of triumph rent the air, almost inhuman in its ferocity. Is it thus that audiences play with their favorites ? For the third time an apple was placed in position and the glaring light again thrown on. How terribly pale were those feature's now! Bosco's hand visibly trembled as he loaded the dead- ly weapon. The few tender hearts in that vast multitude sickened at the sight. Making a tremendous effort to recover ,his self possession, Bosco raised the weapon and took aim. There was again a sharp click, a loud report and the boy fell heavily ground. to the a My God, what have I done? What have I done ?" exclaimed the per- former in an agony of grief and rushed from the ring. A few attendants lift- ed the lad's prostrate forst and con- veyed it to an inner tent, with a mur- mur akin to remorse escaped the vast crowd. A painful suspense followed, during which the band struck up a lively tune, but it sounded like a funeral march. -The boy! the boy? what about the boy?" the audience shouted. They were human again now, At length the manager appeared. He told them the the lad had been ill all day and had taken part iu the performance at great risk. The mental strain was too much for him, however, and as the last shot was fired his strength gave way, and he swooned. ' But he is not hurt," the manager concluded, "and as soon as the fainting fit is over he shall be presented to you. See, stere he comes!" and as he spoke Bosco emerged front the tent, loading by the hand his little son, displaying the remnants of the third apple. Such a shout arose as has never since been heard under the canvas of Gallaxy's monster tent, and when Bo,co raised the boy in hie arms and kissed him affection- ately on both cheeks tine cries of "Bravo, Bosco !" could have been heard for miles around. * * * * * Alfredo Bosco has never told Trow that very fainting fit of Alfonnso's saved the lad's life, fur be, and he only, knew that his aim was defective, and that the shot struck the apple just as the swoon- ing buy was t'alitng to tire Bound. Wil- liam Tell's historic and never to be for• gotton feat no longer forms an item in Signor Alfredo Bosco's extensive reper- tory.—London Ttt-Bits. It soon became evident that expecta- tions would be realized, 'and . that the canvas of Gallaxy's monster tent would that night cover an audience out of all former precedent. Lung before the doors were opened the entrance was be- sieged by crowds anxious to obtain the best seats; and an hour before the time of commencement the place was filled to its utmost capacity. Well might all concerned view the scene with satisfac- tion. Tire performance comprised all the feats that invariably find a place in time programme of a circus, the big event be- ing reserved for the conclusion of the entertainment. Everything went off well, and the delighted audience ap- plauded all that carne before it, wisely determining not to miss the other good things in the menu for the sake of an especial dish. The graceful evolfltiona of the lady performers, the equestrian feats of the gentlemen riders, the daring ,somersaults, the quibbles and quips of the funny c..owns, all came in for their due share of praise. At length the piece de resistance was reached, and amid the enlivening strains of the baud and the enthusiastic cheers of the audience Bosco came forward, r hislittle son. As leading by the hand soon as the applause had subsided, the performer motioned the lad to his place. An apple was then brought and ostenta- tiously placed by an attendant, upon the child's head, and then, under the glare of a powerful light, the unusual paleness of the boy's pretty face was plainly dis- cernible—especially to cite eager eyes of hie anxious father. With an outward (eeriness, iu strong contrast to the boat- men of a tender heart within, the per- former loaded hie pistol and raised it, armed the breathless excitement of the expectant audience. A pull of the trigger, a sharp click, and a murmur of disappointment told that Iho weapon had missed fire. No- thing daunted, and still with an appar- ent perfect ealniners, every movement being eagerly watched by the audience, bore, reloaded the pistol and again raised ft, 'There was a sharp click, followed by a loud report, and In another second the child stepped forward, holding the ehattsred apple in his hands.

The Hawaiian Language. The Hawaiian language is composed mainly of vowels, anti a few consonants put in to vary the monotony. And the beauty of tine system is that there is no waste. Every vowel' is pronounced. For instance, when the American eye winks at the appearance of the simple word "uaauao," tine glib native rolls out the five syllables with neatuess and de- spatch. This " means "enlighten." Double vowels are very frequent, but never a diphthong. Three vowels are not uncommon, and, as above, four and sometimes more are found unseparated by coneouants. In the mouth of the uneducated native the language is apt to be explosive, but the higher classes speak it with a fluent grace that sur- passes the French or Italian. In sound it somewhat resembles the general flow of the continental Europeans languages. for the vowels all have the French quali- ty and the accents are not dissimilar.— Washington Star, Where the Ghost Gave Cp. For many days past a mischi vows ghost has caused nrco'uvenieuce to at landed proprietor and farmer at Kraff- ohlsdorf, ur Clerrnany.

KISSES'RAR.E IN .JAPAN. ' Osegtatfort Regarded al awmedeit fur Aelybody but Cbtildree. I nttt touch upon one feature of western literature never to be reconciled watt Japanese ideas and customs, says ;snfcarlio Hearts, in the December Atlan- tic. Let tire reader reflect for a ono. Went how large a place the subject of kisses and caresses and embraces occu- pies in our poetry and in our prose tic - tion, and then let him consider the fact that in Japanese literature these have no existence whatever. For kisses and em- braces are simply unknown in Japan as tokens of affection, if we except the fact that Japanese mothers, like mothers all over the world, lip and bug their little ones betimes. , After babyhood there is no more hug- ging or kissing. Such actions, expect iu the case of infants, are held to be mighty immodest. Never do girls kiss one an other; never do pereuts kiss or embrace their children wino have become able to walk. A{l:l this rule holds good of all classes of society, from tine highest no- blity to tie humblest peasantry. Neither have we the least indication tirouglout Japanese literature of any time iu the history of the race when affection wars more demonstrative than it to -day. Perhaps the western reader will find it hard even to imagine a literature in the whole course 'ut winch no mention is made of kissug and embracing, even ul pressing a loving hand; for Band -chirping is ant action as totally foreign to Japau- ese impulse as kissing. Yet on these topics even tine native songs of the court• try folk, even the old ballads of the pea• pl ' about unhappy lovers, are quite as silent as the exquisite verses of the court poets. Suppose we take for an example tire ancient populur ballad"Shuutokuniara," which has given origin to various pr,e verbs and household words familiar throughout western Japan. Here we have tine story of two betrothed lovers, long separated by a cruel misfortune, wandering in search of each other all overt hue empire, and at last suddenly meeting before Kiunridzu temple by the favor of tine gods. Would not any Ary- an poet etuscriue such a meeting as a rushing of tine two into each other's linens, with kisses and cries of love? But how does the old Japanese ballad de- scribe at ? • In brief, true twain only sit clown together and stroke each otter am little, Now, even this reserved forst ut caress is an extremely rare indulgence of eurotidn. You may see again and again fathers and suns, husbands and wives, mothers aid daughters, nleetirg after years of aber,Ct' yet you willp probably never see e the r.ustapproach of a caress beta eon them.

Japanese affec- tion it not uttered in words; it scarcely appears rs even inn the tone of voice; it is 'airily shown iu acts of exquisite cour- tesy and t:induesr.
