Indies. Beyond the present terminus, but in line with its future advance, is the rich agricultural and mineral region of Bechuan Land, larger than Californin, and already settled by English colonists. Evidently this rond has a future before it. American enterprise, and American and English capital. built it. Colonel McMurdo, an American temporarily residing in London, was its promoter. He obtained a concession from the Portuguese Government advantageous to both parties, and built the road within the time and on the terms specified, under the most trying conditions. The Portuguese then came forward with the extra- ordinary demand that the company should build about six miles further to a new alleged frontier within a certain period when rail load building in that country is a physical impossibility. On the failure of the company to meet this requirement, not contemplated by the original concession or by any subsequent agreement, the Portuguese Government seized and confiscaled the road, Colonel McMurdo died pending these 'proceedings. His death was attributed to the mental distress involved in the threatened ruin of his enterprise. His widow has filed at Washington a claim for damages to the amount of $3.750,000. Portugal has been brought by Mr. Blaine's vigorous representations to admit à claim, but higgles over the amount duc and delays justice.
Beyond the railroad question, England has a serious boundary question to settle with Portugal.

was too busy at the time to reply to this cater tion, but now do ko. I had a collie do that, to my kauwidgs, was never led on other food than biscuits in the winter and oatmeal and vegetables- in the summer, yet, for all this, the dog went mad-nor was it bitten, as no wound could be. discovered on it. Again, how will the vegetarian reconcile his theory with the fact of the deer in Richmond Park going mad ? Surely these never tasted meat.
Again, 1 cannot think for one moment that those who keep entirely useless dogs ought to object to the other portion of the community endravering as much as possible to proleći themselves from a dreadful, painful, horrible death. What a man keeps for his pleasure ought not to be to the detriment of others. 1 know of nothing so wearying to the suffering, tired, and sleepless as the continued harking of the dog; but add to this the also continual car of madness, and is it too much to ask that such dogs should be prevented from doing brdily harm either to the human or the brute creation ?
But this is not the reason of my wilting, though it leads to it. For many years I have thought it would be well if the breed of every dog showing particular and sudden ferocity or madness could be reported, and thus it might be observed whether any one breed was more prone to this outburst than another. For a very long time I have endeavored as much as I could to find out whether there existed any difference in

About three hundred years ago the Portuguese ascertain, in all thelaas, & am beundis RACE JACKETS,
took possession of Angela and Benguela, on the west coast of Africa, and of the Mozambique country, including Délagoa Bay, nearly opposite on the Eastern coast. English colonists, i ving northward from the Cape, have settled in the interior, between these Portuguese coast territories. They have occupied the upper waters of the great river Zambezi, the lower part of which is in Portuguese posscasion. England now demands the free navigation of the river, while Portugal claims the whole interior between her east and west coast settlements. She has but little on which to base such a claim. Between those settlements lies a stretch of about fifteen hundred miles of African barbarism and un- explored territory. An occasional Portuguese explorer or trader has crossed the Continent, but the occupation of the interior has been merely nominal, especially of late years. Sena and Tele, Portuguese trading stations on the Zam- beri, are sinking into decay, and Zumbo, still further ininud, although but a few hundred miles, from the coast, has been abandoned, until its' late re-occupation, for nearly a century. Even on the const Portuguese occupation is practically confined to a few garrisoned towns.
Of course, England's boundary troubles with Portugal are none of our business, but we have a community of interest in the settlement of the railroad matter and it is natural and expedient that the two Governments should stand in with each other in bringing pressure upon Portugal, It is not likely that our ships will have any opportunity to try their new rifled guns, but their presence in the Tagus, contemporaneously with the dispatch of a British squadron to Delagoa Bay, may convince Portugal that it will be better to do about the right thing.-S.

"I never play' cards in earnest," said Her- marin. "Those who know me wouldn't play with me anyhow, and, of course, I wouldn't take any advantage of those who don't. But I remember one night, not a thousand years ago, that in order to amuse a few friends
sat down to a quiet little game of poker You see, it was this way: I met the friends and was introduced to an innocent looking youth of the dude persuasion, whose face was as vacant in expression as a pound of putty, This youth and been bragging of his powers as a poker. player, and had made the others so tired that they whispered me to take the conceit out of him for the fun there was in it. I was ready, and we sat down."
"In Philadelphia?"
"Bless you, no. They don't play poker in Philadelphia. This was In Well, when we began the game I allowed the youngster to win in order to get bim interested, and, the better to enjoy the circus, the others dropped out and my victim and I had the table to ourselves. Of course I was to give him back whatever I won from him-that was understood. 'We didn't play with chips, as we had none, but made the game a quarter anle and a dollar limit, so that we could use the money without making any awkward change. Every time my callow friend won a pot he put the silver and bills in his pocket, and would chip in the stuff as be needed it. After he had won a respectable pile I began to get my work in, and by handling and dealing the cards in my own peculiar way I soon had his pile in a fair way to innocuous desuie- tude. Occasionally I would let him win, just to keep the fun up, and I don't know but what 1 enjoyed my opponent's innocence as much as did my friends. But all things must have an end. Finally I cleaned him out, much to his surprise, and ordered a bottle. My friends couldn't keep it in any longer.
"I say, old man," said one, do you know who you'y we been playing with?"
"Yes," replied my victim, calmly ↑ *Hen mann, the magician, and he's a good player,"
This was somewhat of a surprise all round. But I laughed, and handed him back the money. I had won. He wouldn't take it. – No, sir. Said I had won it; had he woo raine he would have kept it, and under no circumstances would be take it back, That was not his way of playing poker. It was no use for me to protest to tell him that I had deliberately robbed him. He was sorry that he had got in with a man who didn't play a square game, but that it was bis Lookout. He ought to have seen that he was being fleeced, but as he had been fleeced and with his eyes open, too, he was not a man to squeal. I tell you I felt mean, I didn't think it half so funny then as I did before. But all I could do or say made no impression on my victim, and with a dignified look he left us.”
"All I can do. I said to one of my friend, will be to give this money to some charitable Institution,
"Then I gave the walter one of the bills I had won to pay for the wine. He came back with it, and the information that it was a counterfelt. Yes, sir. That guileless youth had won my gond money and rung in over a hundred dollars' worth of paper on më that wasn't worth a pent a pound. I'm pretty good on handling eards, but poker is a mighty uncertain game mighty
