his raisins AT HATFIELD. His Majesty Visits Lord Salisbury’s Beau- tiful County Beat. le son he flew [understands the Secret of Waterloo. In commentin u n the visit of the Kaiser a great degl o surprise has been ex- pressed at the excellent English he speaks, as well as the fact that his accentuation, too, is English. . It has been for otten, perhaps, that he is the son of an Eng ' h Princess, who from his babyhood has insisted that he should speak En lish daily. _ nsequently the Kaiser aks ‘better English than the Prince of ales himself, who, it is well known, cannot speak many words without a heavy guttural German accent, while the Emperor speaks the same words in exactly the same manner as an Englishman does. But some of the London papers do com lain that though the Kaiser speaks Englis well enough his sentences need at times explicit elucidation. Thus, for instance, it is said that after the review at Wimbledon he turned to the Duke of Cambridge and said : “ Now atlast I under- stand Waterloo l" Pee lo are puzzling their heads as to what he really meant. Did he refer to W’aterloo in an En lish or in a German sense ? If the latter, the universal belief in Germany is that if Blucher had not turned up.“ Oh, for Blucher or night i”â€"Napoleon would have been victor. If he adopted the English idea of Waterloo, then it was the English impregnable squares that did the business. Who shall interpret the Kaiser’s phrase? THE VISIT To HATFIELD. One of the cat events of the Kaiser’s trip to Englan has undoubtedly been the visit to Hatfield, the seat of the Premier, the Marquis of Salisbury. There was cer- tainly no particular reason why he should have thus paid such a palpable compliment to Lord Salisbury, unless he wished to show to the world at large that England had in some way or other given her adhesion to the Triple Alliance, which, in its renewed shape, is a. pet scheme of the Emperor's. Declarations have been repeatedly made in Parliament, however, that England has refused to be a member of the alliance, and that though she looks upon the affair benevo- lenlly, she will take her own course in the Mediterranean whenever the time comes. The visit to Hatfield cannot be looked upon as putting the official signature of England upon the alliance of the three powers, but France and Russia may see things in quite a different light, and the remarks of the French and Russian inspired journals will be anticipated with interest. ON HISTORIC GROUS D. The Emperor and Empress arrived at Hatfield House on Sunday afternoon and were received with due honors. The im- perial visit was taken advantage of by the residents in the neighborhood and the country folk for miles around, who flocked to the seat of the Premier to pay their respects to the visitors and incidentally to enjoy the freedom of the spacious and bean- tiful groun"s which surround that famous old English home. The gates of the vast park were thrown open and thousands of people, many of whom had traveled dozens of miles in vehicles of every description and on foot, throu ed the pathways and lawns and de- voured the lunclieons they brought with them under the shade of the great trees. The Emperor is said to have enjoyed this icturo of rural life quite as much as he Sid the more gorgeous sights presented in his honor in the metropolis. This morning the Emperor went out unat. tended by any one save a guide for a horse- back ride through the most interesting parts of the beautiful Hatfield Park. He after- ward looked at the apartments of the castle, and expressed his wonder at the magnificence of what he saw. Hatfield House, situated in Hertfordshire, one of the most picturesque counties of England, is the most famous and the most magnificent Jacobean mansion in the country. Surrounded by a large park in which grow fine old oak trees and associated with historical events of momentous impor- tance, it is worthy both Of its lordly hosts and its imperial guests. IS IT GREATER THAN NIAGARA ? Mr. Bryant's Proposed Vlslt to the Grand l‘nllsln Labrador. The mystery which has always hung over the Grand Falls in the interior of Labrador is to be cleared own at last, and in a few months the scienti c world will know whether the falls in Grand or Hamilton River are the greatest in the world, or Whether the previous accounts have been greatly exaggerated. Hour ' G. Byrant, a member of the Philadelphia )ar, accom anio cd by Prof. Kenister of Georgetown, ni- vcrsity, is now on the his way to visit the falls. Only two white men have ever seen the falls, so far asis known, and they both place the height at 2,000 feet. Both of the men stood high in the service of the Hudson Bay Company, and, although they say saw the falls at different times, their accounts agree in nearly every particular. Maclean, the first to reach the scene, conducted an cxpc- dition into the interior in 1839, and was stopped by these falls. licnncdy reached them under the guidance of on Iroquois In- dian, who had spent most of his live in Lab- rador. The natives give the falls a wide berth, owing to a tradition long current among them they are haunted by evil spirits pod that no man can look upon them and ivc. Above the falls the river is said to be 5 yards broad, contracting to fifty yards at the falls themselves. If this account be true, then in the whole world there is no other fall haviu such a volume of water descending at a rind from such a stupend- ous height. Niagara's volume of water is far greater, but its he' t is only 16»; feet. The famous falls of Ambesi are but 100 feet. In the Yosemite Valley there is a fall of 2,550 feet, but this is broken into three leaps, and the volume of water is not equal to that of the Grand Falls of Labrao dor. 'l‘hus, taking into account the com bination of hei lit and volume, these Grand Fills of Libra or throw all others into the shade. A fall of 2,000 feet- has genrally been rev garded as uiicrly inconceivable, however, and various efforts have been inst to verify the re rts of Maclean and Kennedy. In 1387 dle E. Helm of Oxford University madean effort to reach the falls, but his provisions gave out when be supposed himâ€" self within fifty miles of his journey's end, and he was absolutely forced to go back. -. M r. Bryant hasmrefnlly studied the situa- tion, and has made his preparations with so much care that his success is regarded as assured. He sailed from New York on June 23, and reached St. J ohn's two days later. All his supplies were purchased there and his final arrangements completed, and to-day he sails for Battle Harbor, on the Strait Of Belle Ise. Another steamer will take him to Rigolet, a post of the Hudson Bay Company, in Hamilton Inlet, from where a two days' sail will land him at Northwest, from where he will begin his last journey of 300 miles up the Grand River. Besides himself and Prof. Keniston Mr. Bryant hopes to take about eight Indians and a. white man for guide if he can get one. The journey up the river will be made in canoes, which must be carried around the many rapids and falls. It is estimated that the trip of 300 miles each way can be made in about six weeks, and on that estimate Mr. B at will get back to Northwest about the mi die of Se tember, andto Philadelphia about Oct. 1. is idea is, however, to come back by a different route if practicable. In a letter to his mother and brothers Mr. Bryant a cake very hopefully of his trip. The rench priest, a very intel- ligent man who makes pilgrimages throu h Labrador, estimates the height of the is at about 1,000 feet. - Mr. Bryant, the head and front of the ex- pedition, is a. graduate of Princeton College, and was admitted to the Philadelphia bar in 1886. He has not practiced much, how- ever, devotin most of his time to travel and scientific stu ies. His present venture is undertaken solely on his own responsibility, to settle the long-disputed question of the hei ht of the great falls, and, if successful, wil make him famous in the world of science and travel. He has a wide field before him, as few portions of Labrador beyond the coast have ever been visited by white men, and only the barest outline of its geography is known. ______.._.__. An Ancient City Found. In the right bank of the River AmoosDaria near the town of Karki in Bokhara, grottoes have been fouud among the hills leading to a subterranean city, the evidence of which dates back into antiquity. Silver coins and inscriptions of the time of Gapora I. (the first Persian King of the Gassanidean dynasty, who lived about 200 years B. C.) were found in the place. The subterranean town stretches over a distance of more than three versts (about a half mile) with streets, lanes, squares, and hanging fountains. In some places the ground on the top has caved in; but the largest part of the city can be passed through without the least difficulty. ‘y the light of the miners’ lamp, the place presents a quaint, fantas- tic appearancc. There are houses in in perfect construction,one or two stories high, witha pretence of architectural elc- gancc, and filled with furniture and various domestic utensils. The ceiling or upper covering of the streets are constructed of blOCKS of alabaster granites. The natives of Bokhara knew of the place long ago and carried away many silver and gold coins, ornaments, and utensils of great intrinsic value and of still greater archzeological im- portance. The Russian authorities of Bokhara have made arrangements to take care of the antiquities Of the place, and sent notice Of its discovery to the Archaeological Society of Moscow. The society has sent a commission of experts to make explorations during the summer. ___â€"â€"â€".~.â€"â€"â€"-â€"â€"â€"-â€" Treble and Bass. “ Twinkle, twinkle. little star, How I wonder what you arc."
