BRITIS H IjEA DOGS Reviewed by Emperor William Oil' Portsmouth. ? A MAGNIFOENT DISPLAY. ^Diree fire Mile Lines of Battleships Olosely Inspected. IIEXT WEEK'S MIMIO WAB. A Ub( Mondfty night's Fortemoath cable Bs} H : 1 he »iiDa»l uaval review, the CeaieBt nkval review that Koglaud or any other coDntry evtr saw, took place to-day mt Spitbead. The Ban shone down apoii the wide green sea o( brilliant lligs and ohanging oralt. In the wide water picture tkhere were thonaanda of moving veasels, great and small ; there were big ocean steamers, big exoarBion steamers, coauting â- teamers, steam yachts, tow boats, tug boats and shore steam launches, all bril- liant with buQiiug ot all colors, made all the brighter by the escaping clouds of â- team. There wae a great deet of sail yau:hts, five hundred of them and more, dancing along over tbo bright green surface under a crisp, fresh breeze, their vhite sails benaiug in graceful undula- tioDS to the English ensigns they were perpetually passing. Ihere were white â- hips'lsuncbea and piooaces shooting across the water in all directions, with hissing â- team pipea and fluttering white ensigns, the most important, if the smallest of all the boats in motion, and straight in immobile lints over the many Eijuare miles of sea area that these pleasure boats occupied lay the grim iron monsters of the fleet (jaietly at auuhur, atern and silent as grim and uubouoiug as bo many black su'moured and iron helmeted knights, looking on in majestic indifference at the petty frivolities ol the children's masijue- rade. It was the greatest lieet of warships that was ever gathered together, greatest in number and by tar the greatest in power. They made an impresiiive sight, a grim â- oene that compelled every observer to â- top and think to the extent of hia {leraonal ability, these three tive-milelines ef battle- ships, each built to do the utmost harm of which a ship is capatlc- with powder, â- hot and shell, or with loipedo and dyna- mite. All along the line were peeping out frowning guns which could quickly make brick yards of all the forts in the world. iler Majesty's guardabip Ueaborse left Bheen Jetty just as the rusty clang of the dockyard clock announced half past 1. The admiralty had ordered that the Bea- borae should ktep abreast of the review Hiovoments, in order that the press repre- â- entatives might see everything that oc- oarred. At half past 3 o'clock the station at Trinity pier announced that the Uoyal party bad arrived for disembarkation, the young Umperor being elmrply on time, aa usual. The Alberta put oil to (be Victoria and Albert, and as Emperor William stepped oil board the Ituyal standard ot Germany ran np to the main to take lU place beside the other, tbo two brilliant Uags Hying together in piotureeque fraternity thenceforth throughout the day. The Emperor waa â- ooompauied by a brilliant party, including Count ISismarck and hia full suite. With him also came l'rinc<: I hristian of Uohleswig-Uolslein, I'riuce and rnncess Uenry of liikttuuburg, I'mice Henry of Prussia, and the Lords ot the Admiralty. The Victoria and Albert ijuickly gathered way, and headed for the lower end of Kyde- bank. As she did so the tirat explosion in a day of explosions began. A tlasb and boom came from the gun deck of the Valorous, the ironclad that always guards the sea in front ot Osborne when Her Majesty is there. The view from this point was novel and altogether interesting. It was a live-mile avenue of sea water, 400 yards wide, lined with ahips aa tar aa the eye could aee, bril- liantly draped with Uaga atandiiig out elearly for aume distancu, and then all ran together ; maata, llaga, sinoke-stacka, tarrets and barbettes mingling in strange •onfusion, in which the second lines of â- iniilar ships had a part. The royal yacht passed the Kpider, Hand Fly, Htaarp- â- hooter and Mohawk before any sign of reoognition became manifest. A moment later all over the lleet the general salute eame. The Haahorse was in the midst ot it, <uid the way in which those cannons banged all round the ears of everybody on board bad a strong tendency to oast any desire for war. It was bang, bang, bang and boom, boom, boom, and smoke clouds that bid the ships, concealed the tleet and lent a hazy look to tbo entire visible universe. The sheets of solid, rolling white smoke oame from all parts ot the various ships, wherever the saluting guns happened to be placed, and this smuke, seized by the wind, sailed off into the tluuner and bluer olouds ot indeliuite size to an indebnite height. It waa a grand salute, numbering 16,000 ,guns stltogotber, and when it had linally ceased and the smoke had rolled away, every ship, like a wrought-iroii massive butterlly ooming out of a cocoon of oannon snioko, took on a new ap(iearanco, majestically gaudy. The Kmperur wore full uniform with the cooked bat of an admiral of the tleet. The I'rinoe of Wales wore the same. The Em- peror had a telescope which he was con- stantly using. Hu inspected all niinately and with great interest. lie was ooustantly in mutioii or in rx>nversation, and took a biidiiusd-like interest in the â- oeni' which evidently affordud him much gratitlotion on oooasioiis. lie took oil his at whenever thu Ituyal yachts passed one otthe line ships. Kvi-ry tar on board joined in tbo cheer winch went ringing away to sea ward with hoarse enthusiasm truly liritish. Then the cummandurs on the bridge un- covered, and the Eiii[>erur uncovered also. Ue takes off his hat very often, and iloes it extremely well. The aiiuaiio procession consisted of the Trinity yacht Ualatea leading, the Victoria and Albert, the llohen/.ollern, Usborne and Admiralty yacht Kuuhantreas. It paBsed up the main line and down the second line amid two hours ol ubuers and naval cour- tMies, then it tetorned to the main line and stopped abreast of the Howe tor a leoep- tiou. In the meantime the sea had become everywhere dotted with white steam launches, coining from every direction and converging towards the Uuwe. They con- tained various oommauderu on their way to the reception. Meanwhile the Victoria and Albert had completed the inspeotion and come up abreast of the llagship. .She stopped, the port gangway, carpeted with red, was lowered, and the signal that tlew â-¡p to the masthead announced that His Majesty was ready to receive. Upon this the large steam pinnace of Admiral Bir Edmund Bomersut, admiral ot the deet, pat out from the Howe and crossed to the Koyal yacht. Sir Edmund went on board and was duly presented to His Majesty, and then the formal presentation began. A dotilla ot laonches crossed the tossing stretch, each bearing a captain or commander in command. In halt an hour all were gathered on board, and a procession was formed, two and two, the captains having been sorted into fleets and B^juadrous. All being ready. His Majesty took his position in the open space at extreme aft ot the main deck. He stood alone, the I'rince ot Wales behind him and a little group composed ot the Prinoess ot Wales and her daughter and Princess Beatrice still further back. Ibe ladies were in gray dresses of various shades, tasteful exem- plars of the costume known as fashionably nautical. Lord George Hamilton, in court dress, had already presented Admiral Com- merel, and that Admiral now beaded the procession of ofticera, who marched from the saloon along the seaboard quarter to the stern. The Emperor took o£f biscocked hat with a free circular sweep at every presentation, and also shook bauds with an emphatic muscular grip. While the presentations were going on the dagsbip Howe dragged her anchor and had to let go her spare anchor. After the presentations the )acbts weighed and pro- ceeded to the westward at a (jaarter to 7, amid the same salutations as before. As she stood away she hoisted a signal. It was : " The Emperor and the Prince of Wales, on behalf of the Queen, wish to ex- press to the admirals, captains, o&icere and men of the aasemblud fleets their high- est approbation of the appearance and efliciency ot the magnificent tleet assem- bled.' THE (OHINU riUUT. The broad lines which are to be followed at the approaching naval maLUJuvres may be briedy laid down as follows : When war ia declared, which will not be till after the combined squadrona have exercised for some day.s at what used to be called steam tactics, but i« now known as deet evolu- tions, and have tilled their bunkers up with coal again, Vice-Admiral Uaird, with Uear-Admiral Tracey as hia second in command, will be at liberty to do as much damage to the seaports and shipping of Great Britain as he can. The Admiralty will not interfere with him at all, and be will hold no communication with them. Ireland will be hia headijoarters, and two of its ports, probably Uurebaven and Queenatowu, will be considered to be ao fortified aa to be impregnable. To Bir George i'ryon, who will, as ia only right, have a much more powerful deet than llaird'a, the frustration ot the enemy's tricks and the defence of our coasts will be intrusted. His bases of operation will be Milford Haven and Lamlash liay, in the Isle of Arran, where his second in com- mand will be located. Admiral Tryon will bo in direct telegraphic communication with the Admiralty, who will direct his movements according to the information they receive about Uaird from the signal- stations round the coast. A Portsmouth cable says : The great chaiu cabks were rising with a hoarse clank, clank through the hawse holes ; the anchors were being hove short ; heavy streams were making round auriolts of water spray, as the hose waa turned on (he muddy chains; long lines of blue jackets were running along the decks, bending under the weight ot ropes which were pull- ing heavy stream pinnaces from the water up to the high davits ; fifes and drams on every deck were turnishir;; the inspiring combination ot sijaeak and bang, which takes the place of the " heave ho " on Iler Majesty's ships ; sentries were pacing iho bridgca ; crowds of barefooted men in blue were washing the decks ; steam was escaping from the deck pipes and Bide vents, and all up and down the deet strings ot brilliant coloured signals were llyiug to the mastheads to fall with a despairing droop a few minutes afterwards, like so many shot pheasants. It made the prettiest of pictures in the dark of morning this bright ooionred deaf and dumb language of the deep, and to make vivid the deet of the sea, all the world came. " C " and " U " are weighing anchor, answered a courteous petty ofboer on the Howe to your correspondent. They wore weighing anchor. There was no doubt ot it. Two squadrous at least were about to move, and the spectacle was awaited with interest. Battle ships at anchor are all very well, but they have the inert and onsatisfautory impressiveness ot a stufled bull dog. After all, it is the bull dog in motion, with his hair bristling, his teeth showing, his mouth opening like a porthole that makes his reputation as a beauty, and bull dogs had begun to move. The Kacooou at five minutes to 6 began to to forge ahead. 1 he deet line for the first time waa broken. The cruiser moved majestioally out ot iti place into the middle lane, and went steaming grandly away between the fleet. The Inconstant followed with impressive rapidity, her three masts perpendicular against the sky. Then, with a dash ana roar, came the big floating battery, the Prince Albert, and the ooaat-defence ships Hotspur, Gordon and Heoate. They had an effect that was nothing more or leas than weird, these great niassea of metal tearing so actively through water. It was Weight irresiatible and power beyond oppo- sition. The feeling they created was the sense one eometimea has in trying to eym- patbize with the panting locomotive, only it was the sense intensified to an indefinite degree. Grandest of all by acoident of oiroamstaiioes was the outooming of the Cyclops. Hhe came direotly down the sun's path with all its bla/.e si|narely be- hind her. Ubo seemed to tower on high, a strange living and breathing Frankenstein of the seas, as she shot through gold filmed waves, the wall all on Are through all her lino with the sun glare on davits, rails, boats, ventilators, air tubes, smoke stacks, she churned her way rapidly to the west- ward as it weary ot inactivity. Now the torpedo boats began to oome out ot the harbor at tall speed. They darted down the north line iu aqaadronsof six and seven, like shoals of fastest flying black porpoises, half iu and half oat ot the water. They cut instead of moanting the waves. They were very flsb-like, flying so fast and so low in the water. They thrust their noses into the billows as it they loved them and received spray that dashed in clouds about their bows just as gladly as if spray was their natural nutriment, and they bad not bad their breakfast. The second group of them passed, and were quickly out ot sight. There was a great hole in the deet line where C and 1) squadrons had been. A and B were to go next, but not for some hours, and so your correspondent shaped bis course tor Kyde, purchased one of the gilded waiters at the Koyal Pier Hotel, and sat down to breakfast. In the forenoon A and B went out one by one to the e stward. The German Emperor, though expected at the Cowes regatta, was too much inter- ested in the navy to leave it long for yachts, and the Victoria and Albert took him and the Prince of Wales outward with the deet. The two big squadrons went out in single column. The line ships were too far apart in this form to be very impressive as groups, but after rounding Bembridge point, the head ships slowed down, the after ones caught up and the procession went down the Isle of Wight coast. It was a grand sea picture that nobody living along the shore permitted himself to miss. bt. Catharine's Point is a high bluCT that rises hundreds of feet in precipitous shelves from the shore. From the summit the ocean was a flat stretch of wide waters, whose distances were indefinite and interminable. Five miles out in the blue the Immortalite was steaming into the Channel, a snow white, symmetrical, rapidly disappearing spot on the blue. Ihrte milts btbiLd her oame the grand procession, fartnough away from the observer to gain for the first time during the week the qaality ot compactness. It sailed along in two long columns. " B " equadroc was headed on the shore side by the Northumberland, Vice-Admiral Beats' dagship, with the Kattleitnake torpedo catcher on her Btarboard beam. Behind came the Monarch, Hero, Mersey, Are- thuaa, Irish Conqueror and Grasshopper. Abreast of these was the other line, sail- ing evenly with them, headed by the An- son, Bear Admiral Irvine's dag ship, with the Curlew torpedo catcher on her port beam. Behind were the Iron Duke, Devas- tation, CoUingwood, Calypso, Camper- down, Magicienne, Grasshopper and Nympbe. There was a wide stretch of aea and then came a squadron following the aame track. The Her- culea. Hear Admiral Lyon's dagship, headed the there line, followed by the Neptune, Ajax, Invincible, Balkan, Prince, Northampton, Undaunted, Galatea, Thames, Mercury, Melpomene, Berpent and Banddy. Abreast of them were the Kodney, Admiral Tracey 's dagship, the Howe, liuperi, Warspike, Bhaiinon, Nar- cissus, Media, Marathon, Mohawk and Bpider, and over the glittering, diamonded Btretcb of ileep calm ocean theae massive shipa, tranafcrmed by diatance into pretty tiny toys, pasaed aluwly to be lost to eight where blue meets blue. The " B " equadron, otherwise the Achill fleet, goes to Black Iriod Bay, in Ireland, thence to England with the unreal ferocity of imaginary war. The "A" deet, tbe chit f defending squadron, goes to Milford Haven. " C " stjuadron, defending, goes to Lamlash Bay, and "I>," also defending, to Plymouth. ' F " and " O " will protect tbe vicinities of Hull and Leith. UNHAPPY MRS. MAYBBICK. I'KAVICK!! HKtiTOUICU UKK tilUUT. A MIddU-town (N.Y.i tVoiiiaii'ii H.-iuark- ahln Kiprrlenre tVllh Faith C'urlttn, A Middletown, N. Y., despatch says : Faith Mission ia the name under which a religions organization in this city was re- cently incorporated. The Mission services .are held on the upper door ot an old school house that waa abandoned by the city many years ago. The leading spirit ot the Mis- sion is David L. Conkling, teller of tbe First National Bank. F'aith Mission ia very liberal in its viswa, opening its doora to all {rbo protess Chriat. Of late the pulpit has been occupied by Faith Curists, represented by Elder Uanoox, of the Church of the First Born, Jersey City. On Buuday, July 'itith, be devoted his time to recounting the cures edected iu answer to the prayers of himself and his faithful followers. In the audience waa a middle- aged woman, Mrs. William Boyce, a mem- ber of the I'resbyterian Church and the wife of an employee on the Btate Asylum farm, who for fourteen years had suffered from impaired vision. One of her eyes was totally blind and the sight ot the other was so defective that aho could only see dimly by the aid of the strongest glasses. Mrs. Boyce waa much impreaaed by llancox'a remarks and going forward for pra>ers was aniiinted with oil. Next morning, while working in the house, her sight was sud- denly restored. Bhe hastened to tell the neighbors and as proof read the smallest print in the Testament. On her husband's return from work she saw him tor the first time in fourteen years with the eye that had been totally blind. Scores of people have been to see her during tbe week, and yesterday at the Mission's servioes she gave proof of the cure by reading at sight, with- out glasses, articles in small type which she had never t)efore seen. T. Gr.in(ikb 8TEW4HT, M. D., F. R. S. E., Ordinary I'hysioian to H. M. the Queen, in Bcotland: Proteasor ot Practice of Physio in the University of Edinburgh, in writing of Bri^hi's disease, says : " Tbe blood itself is altered in its chemical uomposttion. Its density is iliminisbod, the corpuscles and albumen being deficient, while the water is corresjiondingly increased. The quantity of nreu is above ttie normal. This in a plain recognition of the necessity ot direct- ing active treatment with Warner's Bate Cure when the blood is overcharged with area cr uric acid poison. Bentenoed to Deathâ€" Mr. JoBtioe Stephen Hooted by the Orowd. A Wednesday's Liverpool cable says : At the conclusion ot the Maybrick trial three women tainted while the judge pronounced the sentence of death. The sentence pro- nounced, the prisoner, who at the conclud- ing phrase, "And may the Lord havemeroy on your soul," had dssped her hands con- volsively together, required for a moment the support of the two female warders, but recovering her nerve, she walked down the stairs with a firm step and unassisted. When His Lordship, preceded by tbe usual retinae ot javelin men, chaplain and sheriffs, made bis appearance in the streets the crowd commenced to yell and hoot. His Lordship took no notice of the disturb- ance but proceeded tj his carriage. The police not expecting a demonstration of the kind were not in any extraordinary force, and they only partiady succeeded in keep- ing tbe crowd clear of tbe conveyance. Tbe horses, being fine spirited animals, became restive, but tbe coachman, seeing the posi- tion of affairs, whipped them up and drove at a rapid pace op the London lioad to- ward Newsham House, the judge's resi- dence, followed for some distance by a yell- ing crowd. This treatment was the less deserved because throughoot the trial Mr. Justice Btephen had been even aniioosly careful that no point that told in favor of the prisoner should be overlooked. As an instance of popular fickleness, a somewhat similar scene occurred in connec- tion with the removal ot the now convicted prisoner. It was at first intended to surround the prison van with an escort of mounted police, bat this idea was abandoned, and when tbe van drove out ot Bt. John's lane at the end of tbe private passage, by which the prisoners are taken to and removed from the ooarts, a large crowd awaited its appearance and indulged in boots and groans for the prisoner, which continued until tbe van disappeared in the direction ot Walton Jail. There is a rumor that Mrs. Maybrick is pregnant. It this were so it would save her from the noose, but the report is not believed. When a woman under death sentence makes such claims, she is placed in the hands of a jury of twelve matrons. If their verdict is that the prisoner ia with child, abe is respited, which means imprisonment for life. Other- wise she is hanged. A Liverpool cable saya : There are people who do not believe Florence May- brick will be banged. There are many who do not believe that she should be hanged. Many cf the latter ciaes, whoareinfiuential persons, have so expressed tbennfelves in letters to the London editors. Petitions are being sent to Manchester and London, BO that members of tbe bar who have left Liverpool may have an opportunity of sign- ing them. 'The merchants and brokers pray that the sentence of death may be respited with a view to commutation or reprieve, en the ground that there was no direct evidence of the administration of arsenic by the pris- oner to the deceased ; that the case against tbe prisoner on the general ot tacts was un- duly prejudiced by the evidence ot motive, and that there is room tor grave doubt whether the circumstantial evidence relied on by tbe prosecution was weighty enough to justify conviction ; that there was a strong body of medical testimony on be- half of the defence that death was ascribed to natural causes ; that there was not sufficient evidence on the part of the prosecution ; that it was due to arsenical poisoning ; that, having regard to tbe condicting nature ot the uie<iical evi- dence and the very widespread doubt as to tbe propriety of the verdict on general grounds, it would be in the highest degree unsafe to permit an irrevocable sentence to be carried out. Messrs. ('leaver and Holder, Mrs. May- brick's solicitors, have received letters from other towns, asking tor copies ot tbe peti- tion for signature, and they have drawn up a form for general use similar to that of the merchauta and brokers. Mrs. Maybrick was in a prostrate condi- tion this morning, and was attended by the doctor, who, however, states that her con- dition is not serious, but is due to relapse after tbe great strain of the past week. Bhe has again protested her innocence to the jail chaplain. This afternoon she had recovered her composure somewhat, and was visited by her mother, Baroness \'on Uoi|ue, who since the commencement of the proceedings has been living in tbe vicinity ot the jail in order to be near her daughter. There was a large orowd outside the jail, and the prevailing sentiment was one of pity for the prisoner. Tbe governor and officials of the jail de- cline positively to give any information about the prisoner, and information on this head has to be sought in other qaarters. Thu interview between the mother and daughter, which was but brief, was painful and affeoting, tbe prisoner being ot the two the most agitated. Bhe, however, ex- pressed her appreciation of the kindness of the officials in allowing her mother to visit her, the visit having afforded her much consolation. Last night when she returned from court she walked to tbe oondemued cell with a firm and elastic step, and as if she had not realized the terrible position she was in. This morning, however, a revulsion of feeling seems to have set in. A FATAI. CANMON AOCIDBKT. They Didn't Know It waa Loaded Till Ihay Tooelted It Off. A Wednesday's special from Yarmouth, N.S., says : A most startling and reaiark' able accident occurred here last night about o'clock. The streets were filled with people when the sound of a discharg- ing cannon was heard in the centre of tbe town. It was found that one of the old 3'2-poaDder cannon in tbe drill shed had been discharged and tbe shot had killed a man named James Cosman, in Wilson's stable, in the next street. The Artillery Company meet in the drill shed for gun drill every Tuesday evening. They go through the exercise of loading and firing the cannon, using the regular large iron shot, but having only a bag of sawdust for powder. Last Tuesday night when drill commenced an obstruction was fonnd in one of the guns, which proved to be a shot jammed in tightly in soma way near the breech. Various means were tried to get it out without success, and tbe gun was then left until last night, when Capt. T. R. Jolly tried to blow the shot out by putting in powder at the touch -hole and firing it. The breech was previously sounded with a drift, apparently showing that the gun was empty, save for the shot. A small quantity of ride powder was put in the breach and a friction tube exploded, but there was no effect until the third attempt, when there was a startling report and the drill shed was filled with smoke. The shot tore through a heavy roUed-up gymnasium mat- tress, through the doors of the ride rack, throogh tbe end wall of the bailding, entered tbe back of Wilson's stable, where the stableman was cleaning a horse, struck him a glancing blow, breaking his neck, and then passed through tour heavy board stall partitions before it was spent. Tbe report of the gun and the effect produced were out of all keeping with tbe amount ot powder poured into tbe toucb-uole, and tbe caase of the accident is a mystery. It is believed by many that whoever jammed the shot in the cannon bad first got some powder and pat iu a charge, but if this was so it seems strange the gun did not go off until the third tiring of the powder inserted at tbe breach. m FLY FAFIiKS A8 A CUSHKTIC. Bruueln Urusiflsts Have Their Say uu tli» Maybrick Case. A Brussels cable says : Tbo Maybrick trial has caused almost as great a sensation on the continent as in England. The In- dtpt'idtiice Beige compares the case to the celebrated Lafargue affair of thirty years ago. Tbe Brussels newspaper has also sought to throw light upon one of the points ot tne trial which has remained somewhat obscure, and to day publishes the result of interesting inquiries. The reporters have made the tly papers theory the subject of their inquiry. Mrs. Maybrick alleged tbat she had employed these arsenic impreg- nated papers for her complexion, after the example of German women. The counsel for the proseoutioa objected, and no witnesses were produced to prove that German women made use of dy papers, as alleged, and consequently this part of Mrs. May brick's defence was worthless. Ten Brussels chemists, who havo been consulted by the Irjiepeiuience, have totally different opinions. Of these, nine stated that fly papers could be used sue- cesslully iu the cure of skin diseases and erupliciis. while the tenth went further. He carried on his profession many years in Germany, and declares that in that country many women are in the habit of using fly- papers to beautify their complexions. The preparation of thu papers is the same as that which Mrs. Maybrick said she bad followed. Another chemiat named Uairant, who also spent several )eat8 in Germany, cor- roborated the previous statement. He pointed out thai dy papers are generally impregnated with a strong solution of quassia amara, the extremely bitter taste of which would certainly have aroused May- brick's suspicions had any liciuid contain- ing It been given him to drink.

A Paris cable says : The trial ot General Bonlanger before the high court of the Senate was resumed yesterday. Tbe Procuteur-Geceral, continuing bis address, charged tbat General Boulangerbad held a veritable pohtical court at Clermont- Ferrand when he was in command of the troops there, and he had originated secret intrigues, electoral agitation and systems for corrupting officials. Notwithstanding these acts he had written to the War Office disclaiming any connection with what had been done in his name. Here there were protests from the Sena- tors belonging to the Right. The Prooureur General declared that there were documents before the court which clearly marked the downward path of Gen. Bonlanger from insubordination to intrigue, falsehood and conspiracy. The Govern iiient also had evidence to show that Gen. Bonlanger had tried to have con- veyed to Prince Bismarck the information that he (Bonlanger) only desired to be ap- pointed Consul for life. The Procureur-General described the proceedings ot the League of Patriots at Rocbefort and the initial steps ot the attempt against the State, which com- menced with the scene at the Lyons depot when Boulanger started for Clermont- Ferrand and continued until the Long- champs review, when Boulanger was hiding in Paris awaiting tbe result ot his mani- festo. The Procureur's speech wasreoeived with many impatient cries to " Adjourn I adjourn I" The trial was tiually adjourned. m Here's Rlchnesa. The appointment of women on School Boards does not meet with approval in all quarters. A janitor in one of the Public Schools thus relates his grievances : " Here I have been janitor of this school for 15 years and not a soul has ever been in the basement but mjsulf, and now this woman comes to inspect the school, and the first thing she does is to ask to see the base- ment. And that basement," he added plaintively, " wasn't in a fit condition for any one to see." â€" American Analyit. •*.â- <•
