The Prince of Wales in Homb:arg. Though it may be doubted whether His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, would he able oineet all the conditions of mem- bership imposed by some sections of the Christian Church, or whether he would feel disposed to assume _yery_weighty-spiritual duties, it is certain that his private life has — become more regylar and less open to cbjection than it was twenty years ago. Indeed, in this regard he gives the scandal- wonger but little employment. Take the following, which comes from Homburg, where the prince has been summerin the visit of his Royal nephew, as an indica- tion of the life he now leads : “His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales is leading a very quiet and regulur life here, He gets up early the morning, and nt 7 o'clock walks to the Elizabeth Sprin where he meets the Duke of Cambri ge and the Duke of Teck, and where a large, curious crowd always gathers to stare at nim. He drinks two or three glasses of the waters and stays sometimes to listen to the band. Then he returns home to breakfast | and reads the newspaper till ten o'clock, when he takes his bath. After this he works till 1 o'clock reading French works on strategy and bluebooks, when he lunches, usually taking this meal at the Park Hotel, or sometimes on the terrace of the Kurhausse. Afterward he drives to the mountains or makes tea on the balcony of the hotel. At 7 he dines with about half a dozen guests on the terrace, while the band plays in the Kurgarten Pavilion. About the Prince and his guests visit the Kurgurten Concert and return about 11, seldom going to bed later than midnight. He looks‘very well indeed, and everybody is _cnchanted with his simplicity and kindness. Before going to bed he usually takes one or two lasses of apelinaris water, with lemon j juice in it. Arbitration. Tt will doubtless come with some surprise’ to those who have kept themselves posted on the history of moder events to note how frequently within the last decade the princinle of arbitration as advocated by the World's Peace Association has been re- sorted to in settling international disputes. — in 1885 it was recognized and em- sodied in the treaty between Great. Britain boi Uruguay. In the e vear Germany and Spain settled their difficulties in regard to the Caroline and Pelew islands by sube miting them to the arbitration of the Pone. a provision in favor of arbitration tween Great Britain and Greece. com paratively trivial dispute between Italy and Columbia, arising out ‘o & collision at s2a, was referred in 1888 to the Spanish Government for decision. ° So -— the principle cf arbitration has thar either in treaties or in the actual settlement of «lisnutes, between Portugal and Morocco in 1888, between the United Punten and the Central American Repnblics in the treaty sicned last Anvril, between Denmark and the United States.

The o¢casional discovery of mute, savage, and whdlly un- cultivated human ‘beings even inspired Ling reus with a belief in the wild man, and led to his dividing the human race in his system of zoology into two sy or man susceptible of civilization, and homo ferns, a being which he describes as ‘* mute, hairy, and going on all fours.” Science nowadays recognizes but one species of human being—the lowest savage—showing traces of culture and refinement, which sep- arate them absolutely from the brute crea- tion.

It-might- be inthe interest of Canada if the Pouinion government in making its es- timates, would set apart a certain sum to expended i in supporting a few schools in the United States, where instruction concerning our country and its institutions, federal, provincial and municipal, would be correctly given.

One night a tiger got into a cattle shed and killed seventeen buffaloes out of the herd. Finding the wall from which he had de- scended too high for him to escape by, he iled one dead buffalo on another until he had raised them toa sufficient height for him to use the heaped up carcasses as a stepping stone, and thus the buffaloes were found in the morning.
