Flood interfered. Ac he did so, Halstead Poland picked up an iron Instrument,that lay nearby and struck the policeman over tbe bead wltb It. H e followed up tbis attack several times. Flood was repeatedly knocked down, but managed to rise, each time to receive a blow on the bead. Blood flowed from hie wounds in streams, until bis boir was mat­ted wltb gore aad hia shirt front was erlrn' son.

Tbe marshal cried for help and James Poland and James Riddle, J r , responded. Haistead Poland ceased bis beating of Flood, and turned bis attention to the oth­er Poland and Riddle. Peter Poland jum­ped In and defended Halstead Poland. Finding tbat matters were getting serlons, he caught Halstead Poland and locked him in his (Peter’*) pool room.

Doctor Fred. S. Shepherd Explains Why and (low School Children Must Undergo

a Medical Examination.To the patrons o f the Asbury Park PublicSchools': . .

Some very funny rumors seem to bave been carried bome by the school children regarding the medical inspection in onr public schools. A word of explanation from me will probably make the matter perfectly clear and reaoocsble to parents who have thus been misinformed.

Lost year tbe Legislature revised ithe school law of N ew Jersey. Artlsle 80, csction 255, says : Every Board of Educa­tion may employ a competent physician to be known as the medical Inspector. Tbio inspector shall visit the schools In ibe district In which he shall be employed Qt stated times ta< be determined by the Beard of Education. H e shall examine every pupil referred to him by a teacher. He shall at least once during each school year examine every pupil to learn whether tiny physical defect exists.

I t accordance: with tbe provisions ot this article, the school board-last spring employed a competent medical Inspector. In carrying out the provision-requiring examination, to .ib f made at- least once ■fevery year o f ; every- pupil,-the inethod of procedure is to observe In each case the weight,,the height, the general condition, chest; measurement, inspiration, expira­tion, spine, cutaneous diseases, heart, longs, throat, naso-pharyox, nasal septum, teeth, eyes, ears and the date of tbe last successful vaccination. There is abso­lutely nothing In any way objectionable ia the examination.

It is not tbe function of the medical inspector to prescribe what shall be done in the case of any child showing symp 'toms of disease or bearing any physical defect. In case these are found, the pa­rents are infornied by mail and advised to refer the matter to their family physl-. ulan. The purpose of the law Is to pre-

Number of Senators and As­semblymen to be Chosen

This Year.There are eight state Senators to elect

in’ New Jersey thlsyear—two to fill vacan­c ies caused by tbe appointment of Senator Johnson of Bergen as Assistant Postmaster- General, and by the nomination of Senstor Allan L. McDermott of Hudson for Con­gress. Tbe probabilities are that Repub­licans w ill elect their candidates in Ber­gen, Burlington, Cape May, Middlesex and Passaic, and tbe Democrats in Hud­son, Hunterdon and Sassex. The' next Senate would then stand seventeen Re publicans to four Democrats, the Repub­licans making gains in Burlington, Mid­dlesex and Passaic.

In tbe House of Assembly there are sixty members, o f ' Whom forty-four are tbls year Republicans and sixteen Demo­crats. They are elected by counties, and not by districts, as formerly, tbe Supreme Court having decided tbat tbe district system, under sb lch members bad been elected ever since tbe adoption of the con­stitution, In 1844, was unconstitutional.

According to the. best Information tbat can be bad of tbe political situation in New Jersey this year, the R>pabiicans

HI elect their Assembly candidates in tbe following counties: Atlantic, 1; Ber­gen, 2; Burlington, 2; Camden, 8 ; Cape May, 1; Cumberland, 2; Essex, 11; Glou­cester, 1; Mercer, 8 ; Middlesex, 3; Mon. mouth, 8 ; Morris, 2; Ocean, X; Passaic, 4; Salem, 1; Somerset, 1; Union, 8'; total, .44. The Democrats will elect in Hudson, 11; Hnnterdon, 2; Sussex, 1; Warren, 2; a total ot 16, tbe same as last year.

Thousands of Pilgrim s V isit H et - Shrine Every Year.

■ [‘3*>cclal Q uebec (C an .) L e tte r .]

D ISTANCE lends enchantm ent. That Is .as true an axiom as Mge ever uttered. Our new s­

papers and m agazines hate muoh to say about the pilgrim ages o f the fa ith fu l to the shrine of Our Lady ot Lourdes, in France, and other Eu­ropean “sacred” places. And yet r igh t up here near Quebec, a day’s

, ride from Chicago, 9 ten hours’ jour­ney from B oston , is a place where, i f reports are true, m ost wonderful m iracles are performed, where the lam e and blind are cured, and where believers find consolation in every sorrow.

“La Bonne Ste. Ahne de Beaupre’’ is worshiped by the Catholics of Can­ada w ith honest) Sincerity, and woe, unto him who should dare question th e cures wrought by her interces­sion. To th e French-Canadian farm ­ers and peasants St. Anne, who by virtue of a rescript issued by Pope Pius IX. is patroness o f the province, of Quebec, is not m erely a historical personality; she is an active, gracious angel constantly engaged in in terced­in g w ith God in behalf o f those who venerate her.

This rem inds me that many years ago 1 heard a good old M ethodist

T hey were fleeing from Palestine, carrying away w ith them a number o f priceless relics, the m ost precious am ong w hich w as $he body o f St. Anne. This treasure was p laced in th e hands of St. Auspi.cius, th e first bishop pf Apt, w hile th e rem aining relics w ere taken to M arseilles.

From the earliest tim es St. Anne ■was venerated by the people of France. The shrine at Apt has been for centuries the objective point of vast crowds o f pilgrim s, and the shrine and pilgrim age’ o f St. Anne d’Auray, in Brittany, have long been celebrated throughout the w hole Catholic world. ’ .

The region round' about Beaupre, which is located about 13 miles e a s t o f Quebec, was settled by im m igrants from Perche and Normandy as early as 1650. These sturdy pioneers brought w ith them an: al most childlike devotion fo-r Catholicism arid unbounded veneration for St. Anhe. They organized a parish called Pet,it-Oap, on account o f the hill a t whose fo o t the church was built.

The men wh.o assisted 'in 1 the building of t he humble liit tie sanct uary were, ac­cording to the parish history, singular­ly blessed, especially one Louis Gui- mont, who was cured by St. Anne o f a painiful rheum atism -which incapaci­tated him for hard work.

brother say to h is Sunday-school class th a t the Catholics did not worship the Lord, but prostrated them selves before the carved idols of so-called saints. I wonder' if such bigoted creatures. are still perm itted to teach inquiring boys and g irls ? I f so, I want to correct them. The Catholics do not worship the',saints; they ven­erate and adore them . They do not prpy to them for spiritual guidance and other, favors; they implore them to intercede for them w ith God, so that He may grant their petitions. The veneration o f sa ints the Catholic church has alw ays declared to be agreeable to God; and its priests com­mand their people t o . honor those servants o f the Lord who are crowned w ith glory in Heaven. To desire the prayers of the saints they declare to be no less consistent w ith Chris­tian piety than to asfc the prayers of the faith fu l on earth. The Vir­gin Mary is looked upon as the great and universal medilatrix with Christ.

St. Anne has alwaj-s been considered one of the m ost potent and patient o f mediators. Accordfng to Catholic tra­dition she was the mother of the Virgin Mary, and both Nazareth and the little tow n of Sephoris at the

foot o f Mount Carmel claim the honor of having been her birthplace. Anne married Joachim ' or Eli-Achim, who, lilte herself, was of the tribe of Juda, and of David’s royal lineage. The only offspring of th is union was the Virgin Mary. ' St. Anne was buried

• near Jerusalem ; but later on her sa­cred rem ains were deposited in the church o£ the “Sepulcher of Our Lady" in the valley o f Jehosliaphat. During the reign of the Roman- Em ­peror Trajan, in the first" centurj- of the Christian era, the greater portion of St. Anne’s body was conveyed to the town of Apt, in the French dio­cese of Avignon, where it i s still held in deep veneration. Concerning th is removal Catholic tradition reports that one day a m ysterious bark was seen to approach the shores of France. I t hod neither sail nor rudder, bu t God w as its pilot. In th is bark were ^miarus. Mary Magdalen and Martha, togetner w ith other saintly women.

never com pletely finished, but in-1662 the'second chapel was com pleted, which was located nearer the hill than the first. St. Anne showed th a t this neiw tem ple was no less pleasing to her than the first; awg' granted every kind o f favor to those7 who venerated her. In 1676 a third church, bu ilt of "stone, w a s dedicated. I t w as,tw ice restored, once in 1694, and later in 1787, and was used for public worship until 1876. The present basilica is one of the finest church structures in Canada. Its con­struction was begun in. 1872 and it s forma 1 blessing occurred in 1876. Ow­ing to the ever-increasing number o f pilgrim s this church was enlarged in 1886 and a year later Pope Leo X III. raised i t to the rank of basilica^ The new church contains num erous altars of great- artistic value, but its m ost im­posing feature is a pedestal supporting a large statue of St. Anne and child . This pedestal is cut out o f - an on y x block and highly polished. A t the fo o t of th is statu e the fa ith fu l pray for re­lief from m ental and bodily ills; and the hundreds • of crutches, bandages, trusses, plaster casts and . other evi­dences o f physical sufferings grouped near the main emtrance t o the church bear eloquent testim ony to believers that petitions addressed to St. Anne find a gracious hearing.

P ilgrim ages to the shrine of St. Anne de Beaupre occur at frequent in ter­vals, and at tim es thousands o f pil­grim s join in procession to do honor to her revered name. Every pilgrim is given a.n opportunity to venerate the highly-prized relics belonging to the church. The m ost valued of these is a fragment of a finger bone of St. Anne, which was brought from Careassone, France, and which was exposed tor tbe first tim e March 5, 1670, and has n o t ceased to be the object o f fervent de­votion. L etters a ttestin g the authen­ticity ot the relic are hanging on the walls of th e . sacristy. In January, 1881, the chapter o f Careas*one, after protracted negotiations, divided into two equal parts its-valuable relic o f St. Anne, nam ely, the hand bones, and shared it w ith the Canadian shrine. A nother highly^prized relic is a frag­m ent o f rock' extracted1 from the room, of St. Anne a t' Jerusalem , wjiere the

jnysteries o f th e tmmrfciila’te concep­tion and birth jof tlrt Virgin Mary are. supposed to-hove taken place.

All of these relics, together w ith a few others of minor im portance, are kept in cases covered with glass and exposed.to the fa ith fu l whose venera-. tion consists- in k issing th e precious fragm ents. I t w ould be interesting to enter into a discussion of the agencies by which th e ’m iraculous cures-of St. Anne de Beaupre are* obtained. The fact that hundreds o f men and women who seemed hopelessly lame when they entered the church Walked out w ithout crutches, erect and strong; and that scores o f deaf worshipers heard , the voices o f priests and the whisper^ o f the congregation; that dirunkardh became teetotalers as in the tw inkling of an eye, cannot be de­nied; and even the scoffer caanotleave the bnsilica w ith ou tb ein g overcome by reverence for a power that passes hu­man understanding.

T hat Saint Cecilia, patron o f music and musicians, was once a-human be> ing w ith human in terests.acd habits, and not a mere m yth or a fanciful cre­ation of the painter who has, made ;ug so fam iliar w ith the rapt, upturned face gazing into Heaven, is emphasized by some discoveries in Home. There has been a tradition that the Church of Saint Cecilia in the Eternal city wag built by Saint Cecilia and her husband, Saint Valerian, says the New York Pre'ss. ‘

Recent discoveries tend to confirm the truth of this tradition.

With the permission ~of“ Cardinal Rampolla el Tindaro, the titu lar pro­tector; of-.the church, archaeologists-' hav^ been excavating- under the pave­m ent.-of IbV church, a^ji have found ther? the remrianfs of an ancientjRomah house /lniilt-Ui^oii the earlisst models', with latiK .iyalhs belonging' to tlie im ­perial epoch, '.’J n l t s original form the edifice w as evidently luxurious, as indi­cated by tj great, hall in the form of a basilica, a n ich e .for househoUl gods, and a fine bathroom. The bathroom iS im portant, for, according to the-tradi­tions regarding Saint Cecilia, it was here that she met her death. She was converted to . Christianity after her marriage, so the story runs, and d is­played all the zeal of a convert, bring­ing upon herself the doorti of a martyr. The decree was that she was to be scalded to death in her bath, and a bathroom adjoining the right transept o f ’ the chuclr has been shown to the devoiit for years as the spot in which she gave up her life for. her religion. The discovery of the new bathroom leads the archeologists to believe th a t they have found the real room ot h er martvrdora. *<'.■?

Although som e dinner authorities announce that carving i s go ing out of fashion, the correct service being a la ttusse w ith host and nostess relieved from a ll care during the serving of the dinner, many h o sts s t ill prefer to do their own carving. In th is case all the ch ie f dishes o f the different courses are placed before him , except­ing th e soup, the salad, the d essert and coffee, w h ich -a lw a y s belong to the hostess. In p lacing the m eat ready for the carver. Toasts of beef, rib and sirloin should have the back

' bone a t the right hand of the platter; A fillet o f beef should lie w ith , the th ickest end at the r igh t-hand 'side of the plat'ter, nnd be carved in thin, slices horizontally like a round of 'beef. A leg o f Inmty, m utton or veal is placed w ith the th ickest part on the further side of th e platter. A ham. roast or boiled, should have the knuckle end turned to the carver’s left side, and be cu t in thin slices sloping toward the r igh t. A loin of veal should be cut acrqss tnrough the thick part in very th in slices and a sm all pieg^ of the kidney and its fat given to those who like it. Small birds are placed cro lsw ise on the p lat­ter, heads on the further side, and large fow ls w ith heads to the le ft. In carving a ton gu e, a cu t is made through the th ickest part, leaving just sufficient to keep the tw o parts to­gether, says the W ashington Star.

W hile a dinner may consist o f many courses or few,- served in courses it m ust be. Nor is th is any more trou­ble to servant or hostess than the old- tim e hearty dinner, 'when iq grand nnd prom iscuous confus.on all esthet­ic delight w as lost s ig h t of. After the soup is removed, fish may be served, accompanied by cucumbers or potato, though it is by no means considered as necessary ns i t once was. With the removal o f the soup or fish, plates, which are carried off tw o at a tim e and never piled one in the other—the ment and tw o -or three vegetables are brought in. Then fol­io tvs the cheese and salad:' course, after which the table is cleared of castors,, salt cellars and all dishes, f.xeept flowers,, fru its and. bon boos, after which the tab le is crumbed and dessert placed before the hostess, who serves it. W hile th is is being disposed of, the coffee m ay be brought in, or it can be servwl afterw ard in the

• drawing-room. ' ! ' . ..Where a more elaborate course d in­

ner or luncheon is served, the neces­sary silver is brought^ in w ith each course after the fourth. Good form declares it to be osten tatious to have more silver laid at the beginning of the m eal than w ill serve four courses.

W hether plates should be passed on ' trays or w ith a folded napkin is a m atter flependent upon the preference of the hostess? I t is a lw ays w ell to have a special tray or napkin fo r re­moving the soiled dishes. Paper nap­kins will be found a great convanience in sert ing, many housekeepers prefer­ring to buy the plain paper and cut it in squares. , ■.

“If that song be true we need not despair. The dying th ief was saved on the cross and we > haven’t got far yet. Come to my room. I’ve a Bibi.e there in m y trunk that m other gave to me,”

The young men entered the room and bent over the open book which had been sealed to them so long.

It is infinitely sad that the contact of civilization w ith the native races of W est Africa should have been charac­terized in the first place by slavery, ond later on by the exportation of arden t'sp ir its . It ia Well -that our steam ers should carry m issionaries to the dark continent, but is it w ell that the cargo of many a vessel should m ainly consist of g in and gunpow der' This wns the case w ith the old steam ­ship Adrian, on which 1 sailed for tho Congo in 1891. In due tim e we safely reached Banana, a t the mouth of the Congo river, and 1 commenced ter See the abominable effects of 'the firewa­ter, which in those d#ys was so free­ly sold. N ight was' made hideous in the wooden hotel by scenes and sounds of revelry. A dozen bottles of gin could be bought for <10 cen ts, and the poisonous concoction, so one of my friends informed me, w as war­ranted to kill a t 500 yards. The ‘al­ready degraded natives were in part paid for their labor in girt, and they were thus further degraded, demoral­ized, decimated and damned. L

To-day the stren gth of the spirits sold is greatly diluted, as its poison­ous and destructive power was even for trade purposes too serious. When the artificial taste was created, palm wine, which is very slightly in toxicat­ing , could no longer suffice the na- fiy.es, who. wer.e prepared to barter all their possessions for the accursed “fire-water.” I have often seen' the grnves of these poor heathen decorat­ed with the giji bottles they owned during life. ‘

It is a m atter of profound gratitude that a restrictive tariff is in som e de­gree lessen in g the sale on the lower Congo; but still more are we rejoiced that combined Europe, . too tardily kind, has drawn a cord of protection round equatorial Africa, forbidding the sale of sp irits beyond a certain clearly defined sphere.—H arry Grat­tan Gninness, M. D., London Regions Beyond (M issionary Union). \

As. I have w itnessed the,unutterable horrors o f the rum truffle o f the w est coast, as well a$ in South Africa, I shall gladly embrace the opportunity to let the civilized world know som e­th ing of the sickening details of a traffic of which it m ight be truly said: Slavery slew its thousands, but the rum traffic is slaying its m illions. . I traveled up and down the const on boots that were sim ply wholesale liquor houses—rum in hogsheads, rum in cosks, runi in barrels, rum in kegs, rum in demijohns, rum in stone jugs; ,and the vilest rum that ever bnrnt its way down human throats.

W hat an awful mnivy-sided charge the vast, cloud of butchered African w itnesses will have against the civil­ized world in th e day of judgm ent! Africa, robbed of her children, rifled of her treasures; lies prostrate before the rapine and greed of the Christian nations of the world. A slave pen and battle field for -ages, Christian . na­tions, instead of binding up her wounds, like the good Samaritan; in­stead of passing by and leaving her alone like Levite arid priest, have com e to her jvith 10,00<) shiploads of hell’s m asterpiece of damnation* rum, that is 'turning h er children into hu­man cinders, that lias turned, the en­tire .west coast into one long bor- ro o m .fro m whicji If Is eat I m ated no few er than 2,000,000 drunken savages go forth to die of delirium tremens every year. “Gin. gin,” is the cry all along the west coast, and, says Jos­eph Thompson: “Undern<uith that cry for gin I seem to hear the reproach: You see w hat Christians have made us.” Africa sends to Europe fiber, palm oil’, palm kernels, rubber and coffee. Kurope sends to Africa pow­der and balls to slaughter the body and rum to Bluy the soul. — Rev, Charles Satchell Morris. South Africa.

I o my mind the most convincing proof of the absolu te unreasonable­ness of the liquor truffle, in mission fields, not to say its unm itigated wick­edness, is'found in the action of the English governm ent, w ith respect to its Hast African possessions. In. this, their latest acquisition lq; the dark continent, str ingent regulations have ■beep Issued, and so far as J have no­ticed have been enforfced,-prohibiting the sale o f either liquor or firearms to tjifc natives, ■ ,

When we consider th is action- in ennnp.Kt.iqn w ith her policy on the

w est coast, where liquor hns been poured in w ithout stin t, nnd where the result hns been seen in rebellions uprisings and massocres innum erable, we have the testim ony o f one of the greatest notions, and certain ly the m ost experienced colonizing pow er,, that liquor for revenue does n,ot pay; that as a simple commercial transac­tion it is ruinous,.expensive, crim inal. —Eev. W- R. HotchkinS, B ritish East- Africa. . ....

foolish device that the Unitetl States governm ent for a long time refuseVTiq

-issue a patent for it. Now it is itj op­eration and Is sav ing thousands of

Ml^id of cattle , sheep and swine. Doz­ens of ranchmen in Colorado and Wy­om ing are providing them selves w ith th e weapons, and it is said that they are “worth their w eight in gold.” The Wolf gun is an ordinary gun arranged to explode a blank cartridge every hour during the n ight by a clever litt le device invented by a Kansas man. The ranchman places it near his herds and goes to sleep, know ing that they will be safe from the attack o f predatory animals- befeause these anim als fear the report o f a gun. It is a faithful watch. Every hour its report, can be heard, and if there are coyotes within a half mile of the machine they w ill endeavor to get more distance between them and the noise.—Denver Times.

A PRIVILEGE TO VOTE FOR THEM.Says tbe Ocean Grove Times concerning tbe three R“puhllc»n candidates for the

Assembly, Messrs. Kirkbride, Byre* and Snyder: When th*-se t'en’letnen took tbelr seats in tbe LegisTatut* last winter1 there were (nore eyes upon them tban merely those of their followers along the coast. They were heralded in Trenton as reform­ers,” even if tbey did come from the sand dunes of old Monmouth, and therefore the whole state had more than a parsing interest In the three new members. How they arose at every opportunity and convinciigly said their say on everv measure brought to their attention, ia now a matter of legislative history. Sufficient to say, they justified every expectation. Their good work wss a revelation. They were a power In the Legislature. By good fortune, it happened that ail three were placed on Itu- portaot committees, and their advice and counsel were o f Inestimable benefit to their confreres

Tbey will go back to the Legislature seasoned with the experience gained at last -S^wSiiter’B session. The Bepublican voters of Monmouth county are to be congratulated £fe-that once more they have aa opportunity to cast their ballots for Messrs. Kirkbride,

Snyder aad Hyres. It should be counted a privilege to be able to vote for men of their stamp, ' ' ..... - -.......»- ......

Magistrate Peter F. Dodd has repeatedly declared his allegiance to Kirkbride in tha presence of those who thought he would oppose the Assemblyman’s return to tl 6 Legislature because there was some talk of boosting His Honor for tbe nomination Kirkbride secured. Dodd says he’s for Kirkbride. and Is working for him. This should silence those wh x insist on troubling Dodd about a thing chat is settled. Let evary true Republicun do &s Dodd haa declared be w ill de

Samuel W. Kirkbride hae always been aaong tbe first to help tlio^e who are In need. He will not like to see this in print, but the character of the man for whom the people sre going to vote next, month is worthy of this record. He’s a whole-souled fellow, besides being all else that you want your representatives in the Legislature to be.

coal companies i_. __ have no news to give out boyond the fact

P R E SID E N T MITCHELL, that the 10 per cent increase in wage* o f­fered by the companies some time ago still holds good.

One operator said last night: “This o f­fer is still open to the strikers if they wish to accept it. It is sufe to soy, how­ever, that the operators will make nt> agreement with the miners. In the first place, the operators have lost faith in tbe men since they have quite recent'y brr>- keu agreements made with their employ­ers. The operators can have no assur­ance that in case an sgreeroent was en­tered into President Mitchell would not come along some day and declare it off.”

One of ths officers of the Unit«S Mine Workers said the strik­ers were in good shape and could carry on the battle for some time yet without entailing mach suffering to the men or their families.

Jones was-the dead millioniiire’s valet. In one will made by Rice the residuary share of an estat® valued at #5,000,CMX> ;wa» be­queathed to the William M.. R ice'insti­tute ‘ot Houston, In an alleged second will, made after Lawyer Patrick-became acquainted with him, the residue of the estate was bequeathed to Patrick after $500,000 worth of miscellaneous bequests to relatives and friends in the first will had been repeated in the second will.

John H. Wallace, one of the clerks for Swenson & Sons, wns the first witnesB. Under direct examination b y Assistant District Attorney Osborne Mr. Wallace gave his testimony in the case. He said he wns about 4t( years old, lived at 440 St. Nicholas avenue and was a clerk ia tbe banking firm of S. M. Swenson & Sons..

“I have known the prisoner,.Jones," continued Wallace, “for three, or four years. I knew him to be . the, valet, of William M. Rice, whom I had known for over lS years. I have-been familiar with the signature of Rice for the last 15 years. I don’t know that we have Rice's signature in a signature book, but we have it on plenty of checks and drafts and on plenty of letters.”

W allace testified that the $25,000 check when presented by David L, Short at once excited his suspicions.

“It was unlike Mr. Rice's usual signa­ture,” said Wallace.

Wallace telephoned to Mr. Rice’s house and was told by Jones:

“The check's all right. I know it.” W allace told Jones he must talk to

Rice. Jones answered: “He can’t come to the telephone. He’s very bad.”

Ten minutes later Junes told him Mr. Rice was dead.

D e n o u n c e d T h e m S ix ty * * !* Y e a r * A b o a a t h e “ P o o r M a n 's C u rx e ” —No N a t u r a l H a t r e d B e tw e e n t h e P o o r a n d t h e R ic h .

Sixty-six years ago, on Jan. 31, 1834, Daniel WebSter stood up In the United 'States senate and denounced tbe dem- agoglsm of his day in -words which fit th e present crisis precisely. H e said:

“Sir, 1 see; In those vehicles which carry to the 'people sentim ents ffoaf high places, plain declarations that the present controversy is but a strife be­tw een one part o f the community and another. 1 hear it boasted as the un­fa iling security, the Bolid ground never to be shaken, on which recent meas­ures rest, that the poor naturally hate the rich. I know that, under the cover o f the roofs o f the capltol, within the last 24 hours, am ong men sent here to devise m eans for the public safety aad public good, it hna been vaunted forth, a s m atter of boast and triumph, that one cause existed powerful enough to support everything and to defend everything; and that w as the natural h a tije d o f the poor to the rich..

“SUr, I pronounce the author o f such sentim ents to be guilty o f attem pting a detestable fraud on the community; ft double fraud; a fraud which; i s to che^t men out o f their property and on t o f the earnings of their labor »y first, cheating them out o f their under­standings.

“ ‘The natural hatred o f the poor to th e rich!’ Sir, it shall not be till toe la st moment o f my existence, lt shkll be only when I. am drawn to the verge o f oblivion, when 1 shall cease to have respect or affection for anything on earth, that I ■will believ? the people of the United States,capable of. being ef­fectually deluded, cajoled and driven about In herds by such abominable, frauds a s this. If they shall sink to that point, if they so far cease to be m en—thinking men, intelligent meij— a s to yield to such pretenses and such clamor, they w ill be slaves already— shi vi's to their own passions, slaves to tiu> fraud and knavery of pretended fni.m ls. They w ill deserve to be blot­ted out o f all the records of freedom. They ought net to dishonor the cause o f se lf governm ent by attem pting any longer to exercise it; they ought to keep their unworthy hands entirely off from the cause of Republican liberty If they are capable of being the victim s o f artifices so shallow, of tricks so stale, so threadbare, so often practiced, so much worn out, on serfs and slaves.

A M on strona D elu sio n .“ ‘The natural hatred of the poor

against the rich!’ ‘The danger o f a moneyed aristocracy!’ ‘A power as great and dangerous as that resisted by the Revolution!’ ‘A call to a new Declaration of Independence!’ Sir, I adm onish the people against the ob­jec t o f outcries like these, I admon­ish every industrious laborer in the country to be on his guard against such delusion. I tell him the attempt is to play off his passions against his inter­e sts and to prevail on him in tlie name o f liberty to destroy all the fruits of liberty in the name of patriotism, to Injure and afflict his country and in the name of his own independence to destroy that very independence and m ake him a beggar and a slave. Has he a dollar? He is advised to do that which will destroy half its value. Has he hands to labor? T-et him rather fold them and sit still than he pushed on by fraud and nrtitiee to support ’ m easures which will render ills labor useless and hopeless. ;

L a b o r ’d G r e n t S a fe p ;a n rd ;— »“Sir. tlie very man of all others who

bas the deepest interest In a sound cur­rency and who suffers most by mis­chievous legislation in money matters Is the man who earns his daily bread by his daily toil. I’reying on nobody, he becomes tho prey of ail. H is prop­erty is in iiis hands. Ills reliance, his fund, his productive freehold. Ills ail. is his talior. Whether lie works on h isow n em ail capital or another’s his living is still earned b.v his industry, and when the money of the country becomes de­preciated and debased, whether it bo

. adulterated coin or paper without cred­it, that industry, is robbed of Its re­ward. He then labors for a country whose laws cheat him out o f his bread.I would say to every owner of every quarter section of land In the west. I would say to every man In the east w ho follows his own ph(w and to every mechanic, artisan anti laborer in every c ity in the country; 1 would say "to ev­ery man everywhere who wishes by honest means to gain an honest living: ‘Beware of wolves in sheep's clothing. W hoever attempts, under whatever popular cry, to shake the stability of th e public currency, bring on distress Iu money matters and drive the coun­try Into tbe use of paper money, stabs your Interest and your happiness to the heart.’

“Sir, tbe great interest o f this great country, the producing cause o f nil Its prosperity. Is labor, labor, labor! We ore a laboring community. A vast ma- i Jorlty o f us all live by Industry and actual employment fn some o f their forms. The constitution- w as made to protect this Industry, to give It both en-" couragem ent nnd security; bnt, above all, security. To that very end, with that precise -object in-view, power was given to congitss over the currency and over the money system o f the country. And whoever has the \ylclt-

' edness to conceive aud the hnrdlhood to avow a purpose to break down what lm s been found iu 40 years’ experience essential to the protection of all inter­ests, by arraying one class against an­other and by acting on Such a principle ns that the poor alw ays hate the rich, sh ow s him self the reckless enemy of all.

M c K in le y o n Im p eria lism ®See what the president’s own ideas

on imperialism are. About a year ago he said:

That the Philippines will be retained under the hemjrn BovoreiRnt.v of the United States I do not permit myself to <loulit. That they will prove a rich and invaluable heritage hfeel assured. That t-onf'Tess will provide for them a government which win lirini? tlirm blessings; which will pro­mote their material interests as well as advance their people in the path nf civilization and intel­ligence 1 confidently believe. They will not he governed as vassals or serfs or slaves. They will have fiiven to them a government of liberty, regu­lated bv law, honestly administered, without op­pressing exactions, taxation without tyranny, jus­tice without bribe, education without distinction of social conditions, freedom of religious worship anil protection in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

President McKinley said iast'spring also:

Tliprp con In* no imperialism. Those who fear it ore auain«t it. Those who have fai'tii in the rc-

book Ont F op the Next Congreai. • Tlie special Interest felt in the elec­

tion of' the president naturally tends to dw arf other matters of importance connected \yith the election, l(iit the voters everywhere should not fall to remember that the election of con­gressmen Is second in importance only to that of the president, nnd there Is great danger that the Republicans may lose the control of the next house of representatives even though Mc­Kinley might be re-elected by"a large majority. The reason of th lsJs partly because the present Republican ma­jority In the house Is very small, so that a gain of nine Democratic Votes would overcome it! nnd partly because the new election law s in several of the southern states are of such a nature th af'th e Republicans could- not possi­bly hope to"carry a single district Id that secllon and .must therefore expect to lose several seats from this caupe. which must be offset by gains in other parts o f the.country. Chairman Bab­cock of the Republican congressional com m lttee-desires to warn the voters of the necessity, for standing shoulder to shoulder and working hard to-save the house, and especially to irupress the voters.

cratic party* in Baltimore are rampant.The continued disaffection of the gold Democrats, many of whom contributed to the party treasury in the last tw o or three campaigns, ,causes a lack of funds. Then the quarrel betw een the Rasiu and the organization people on one side aud Mayor H ayes and the Morrjsoh people and their friends on the other has become very bitter. Tho a m ltlU d o ln g T ^latter openly charge that the money contributed to help to elect Bryan w ill be saved to help Rasln In his fight In the primaries In November and again next spring. A s a result the H ayes- Morrison people have refused to con­tribute to the general campaign fund and are making up a special fund, part of which may be used In the present campaign, but the major portion, it is believed, w ill be used in the primary fights.

It Is feared by the leaders that the factional fight among the -Democrats will cause the city to go-so strongly for M cKinley that the Bryan majority in the counties will be overcome.

W*H E N Sir. Jobson got home one evening about'ten days ago he carelessly toseed

the parcel lie carried on to lUe oitting-room couch, and then surveyed Mrs. JobSon out of the tail of his eye, waiting for her to in­quire aa to the contents of the package. Of course h» did not have long to wait.

“Ahl it was thoughtful of. you to bring my shirt waists from the laundry,” she said, beginning to untie tLe package.

“Think"so?” said Mr. Jobson, with obvi­ously assumed airiness, as he struck a match to light his pipe.- "Well, it mig-U have been if I ’d brought ’em. But I didn’t. Brought along a ljttle bunch of shirt waists for myself, though.”

M rs.,!c’uaoi: stopped undoing the" package »nd looked up at him inquiringly.'

“Sliirt waists for. yourself?” she ex­claimed. “Why, it can’t be possible that you’re going io blossom out as a—"

“Can’t, Ijey?” inquired Mr. Jobson, blow­ing smoke rings with feigned calmness. “Well, that’s where you’re fooled again. If you mean by ‘blossoming out’ that I ’m going to walk beneath the dome of heaven in my shirt sleeves fin sizzling days here­after, you’ve guessed right'the very first

. time. That’# just what I ’m going .to do. If .you’ve any particular reasons on forbid the banns, aa it were, just name ’em now, if you pieaae, or else forever hold your peace.” ' .

“But,” put In Mrs. Jobson, “aren’t you afraid-1-” She didn’t precisely know how to put it, and so she hesitated.

"Afraid o’ what?” inquired Mr. Jobson, puffing rapidly at his pipe. "Afraid of get­ting 30 days ia jail, do you mean?' Afraid of being fired out of my club? Go right ahead and inform m w hat you think it’s up to me to be afraid of for attiring myself as I please and aa a decent, common sense man. Afraid of—" .

"Afraid of— ” again began Mrs. Jobson.I I suppose you want to say tbat you don’t approve of my being as comfortable as pos­sible the»e hot days; that you are afraid I will get a part of the benefit of light cloth­ing of which you seem to have had a monop­oly in this house in the past. Now if you can’t tell what I am to be afraid of jusf spin out the reasons you have why I should not wear these comfortable garments if I choose to do so.”

“Oh,” intetrvpted Mrs. Jobson, looking thoughtful, " I t>ni really not opposed to men going about in their shirt sleeves in hot weather, you\know, providing they get them­selves up neatly, but I think the custom b better adapted ,to some men than others. I think that the coatless young man of aver­age weight perhaps looks better in his shirt ei*eves than a man who — well, becom­ing somewhat more Btout than-~er— ”

"Oh, you do, do yout” put in Mr. Jobaosu "y o u ’re jeering and jibing me, as usual, because Tm f-a-t, fat, eh? Ton couldn't let tbe opportunity escape you to sneer at me becauM I ’ve taken on a few pounds of weight during the past ten or 12 years, hey?”

“But anybody will ioo’i large? in white, you know, interrupted Mrs. Jobson. “I ara becoming so stout'myseif that I <I«ri t dare to wear white dresses aty more in hot weather, they’d make me look so mountain­ous, and— ", . <■ -

"That’s al! right about how you’d look,” cut in Mr. Jobson, a bit mollified over Mrs. Jobftoc’a admission tbat she, too, was tak­ing on flesh. "This shirt waist business for men is about the only sensible thing I ’ve nqticed in connection with men’s dreBS for a good many years, and I ’m going to join the' coatless crowd. I ’m free, white, aod 21, and as independent a man as ever came over the hills; and.“I beg to respect­fully announce tosyou, and to all tfhom it may concern, that from and after to-morrow morning one Jobson, of Washington, I>, C., is-going to go forth as a shirt waiater from Shirt Waistville, tho jeers and cat calls of the whole resident, and transient population to the contrary notwithstanding.”

Mrs. Jobson finished undoing the parcel Mr. Jobson had brought home and pulled out three fine lawn puff-bosom shirts, and a pair of buttonless, blue serge trousers, pro­vided with straps for the passage there­through of a belt, all of which Mr. Jobson had had made to order.• When, on the following morning, Mr. Jobson had arrayed his five feet and six inches and his 225 and odd pounds of adi­pose in one of the puff-bosom shirts and bis pair of buttonless trousers, and stood forth before Mrs. Jobson with a triumph­ant gleam in his eye for inspection, Mrs. Jobson didn’t dare to smile, much as she wanted to. Mr. Jobson looked as big as a bouse.

Mr. Jobson fared forth to his office, afoot, and swishing a "Willie stick" th:*.: he hid purchased in order to give himself a devil- may-care air in his venture as a “shirt-waist man.”

At the first corner he turned he was borne clown upon by one of his old friends, a mem­ber of hia whist club.

“Ship ahoy!” shouted Mr. Jobson’s friend, standing stock still at a distance of iboutSO feet. “What craft ia that? H iy ? What for those signals of distress? D ’ye want any h6lp? Why don’t you furl your to'gallant royal mizzen tops'! and go before the gale? Hoi Isthat you, Jobson?, Well, great jump­ing— ” etc., etc.

Mr. Jobson. growled xnnething about “blasted imbeciles that ought to be living in caves,” and passed on, swishing hie “W il­lie cane” savagely.

* Two blocks down Mr. Jobson met another old friend, who also stopped suddenly and regarded Mr. Jobson with a broad grin.

"H«gr, Jobson,” exclaimed tbia one, “when’s the ascension going to come off? There’s one good thing about it, anyhow, and that is that you won’t have to take much ballast along,” and soon. Mr. Job­son didn’t even vouchsafe the ordinary civil greeting of the morning unto this friend, but trudged on, mumbling beneath his breath. *

It wap not until he reached his office, however, that Mr. Jobson went up against real difficulties. H is office mates simply danced around him like a band of fire-wa- tered red men. . Here are a few samples of the remarks they liurled at him:

“Lovely piece of architecture, ain’t he?” "Looks like a prairie schooner iu a cy­

clone, don't he?’" „"Say, Jobson, if you’re really going to

fight Fit*, when are you going to begin train­ing?”

"Say, Jobson, when did they cut you on the bias?”

“It’s all right, but the yoke and theaccor- deoq plaiting.” \

"Say, Jobson, tliere’e a bargain saleof left­over dimities this morning.”

Mr. Jobson got horrie at half-past ten in the morning. ' . '■

"Madam,” said he sternly, after he had got, into his ordinary habiliments, " I am, ass' you know, a patient and a long-enduring man But .he aext time I permit myse!! to be tricked «nd wheedled by you into go­ing out intt/ the streets in a rig that makes me the laughing Btoek 'of over 300,000 people, I want you to promise me that you'll tiuvs tn>* >;xa..'.ined by a lunacy commission, that’s all.”— Washington Star.

The rural band.ican do' th ings that Sousa 's band even cannot.

It can go on an excursion and play it s three tuneB, One after the other, from the time the excursion starts untll .lt ties up at home. You can never tucker a new band. Later, when they get to bs symphonic and soloistic and all of that, they get w&efully tired .and play slow tunes and take long rests and look bored when they receive an encore, I like to see-a new band get an Encore, even after it had been playing all day. They strike right in and jam wind With all the enthusiasm displayed by Lewiston’* new fire whstle, says the Journal.

Once I saw a rural band playing In front of h. country hotel.' A. steep embankment ran sloping from . the piazza. The band men stuck their toee in anci hupined away cneerfully at “Tbe W ashington Post March,”, and everything was going handsomely. But the bass drummer forgot himself and went to wipe hlfe Heated brow. To do that he was obliged to let go pf his b ig drum. T be drum started to lling down the)hill. The drummer ran after it. The pitch was so steep and h is legs, were so short that he ju st ' Reached It w ith ;the drum ­stick and so kefit up the regular beat, all. the way down the hill. Never missed-o-Rtroke— and the band kept on! . A t the foot of the incline 'the drum went up against an obstruction and halted ao suddenly that the drum­mer went over it head nrst. It 'hap­pened that there was a rest of a few beats for him at that place in the mu­sic, and he ,was; able to get ;in hi* feet and boost the drum on his knee in season to take up the th ing where he left off. And 8* ue marched back

, again up the hill, poundihg cheerfully ‘away, maybe you think he didn’t get

j “the hand.” -| Now, I ’ll wager that Sousa’s bass ! drummer couldn’t do that.

The leading man of the town had died and the village band was engaged to lead the cortege to the burial yard. The dead march as played by the Vand, with, most lugubrious tootle by all brass instruments, was especially

I solemn.The most solemn part was when the

band was entering beneath the gate? way of the village cemetery.

I t was a solemn place, that cem­etery gnteway, with its funereal trim ­mings. It was a double gate. In the center on the ground was a little block vlit-1 re the gates were latched

| at the foot. The trombone player, with h is eyes intent on the solemn music in h is catch, stubbed h is toe against the block. A s he tripped he threw out a hand to save himself, and the trombone blatted so furious­ly— right in the midst of those solemn chords— that everyone jumped in alarm. Then the trombone's end struck tho ground-ere he could get his

. mouth away from the end. The in- ‘ strumenf emitted another, bray tbat

was fairly demoniac.I t happened right under the. nos^a

of the horses drawing the hearse, and, of course, they shied, and one of them stepped on the trombone. That scared them In earnest and they start­ed. They .ran the band down— they routed it, and they tore down the cemetery avenue with the drive» hanging on for grim death. He made

| the circle of the main drive twice ere he was able to master the terrified animals, and tbe rest of the funeral

: train remained quiet a Hu witnessed that remarkable “hoss race” with

' varying emotions.* Tbere have many things happened

in that particular town, but noth­ing that developed so suddenly from

I the deeply solemn into the Intensely exciting.

| Tbe trombone player had recovered his battered horn and stood there dusty nnd hntless wafching the im­promptu chariot race.

I When the horses were finally cap- | tured and subdued he iobked at his

torn trousers, then at his battered horn, then at the little b.ock in the roadway'and finally at the horses once more.' And he isn’t a wicked man. I f he were I should have to paint a red streak across the foot of this column. As it was, he slowly wiped his mouth, looked again at the crushed horn. .“Wall, I ’ll ue dod-but- tered to swan,” says he. ■

I And the meek shall inherit the earth!

To add a bit to this day of the pic­turesque in obsequies, tbe band re­turned from the cemetery playing cheerfully, “M assa 's in the cold, cold ground.”

But the trombone player wasn 't in ’ it.' H is horn was jammed together so

tightly that he couldn’t get wind enough through it.

Humbert’s death at Monza was nem a shrine to which all bis life he had shown patriotic devoton. It is the iron crown, the oldest in Europe. The k ing often recited the history of the crown, and - is : said to have seen it more frequently than any other per­son in moderti times, says the Kansas City Journal.

For 1,300 years it has been the sym­bol of s living power among the na­tions of Europe • It wns formeej by ihe skillful hands of Roman gold­smiths early in the sixth century, and sent by, Pope Gregory the Great tc the Gothic Queen Theodolindn, when she had freed Lombardy of fhe Arian heresy. The outer clrc'.e is composed of six equal parts of beaten gold joined together by hinges and set in rubies, emeralds and sapphires uncut as they came from the mines, on a ground of blue and gold enamel. W ith in the circle is the iron band which strangely enough, despite its age. does not bear a single speek of rust, I b this great store is set by its admirers' for the iron band, so tradition has it. is formed from a nail that was used at the crucifixon. T*his band is three- eighths ofi% ts‘ irieh broad and /;ne- tenth of (iafinch thick, and from it ths crown derives its name. .The cele­brated iron nail in original form wa* given to Constance by his mother. Empress Helena: thence it found its way into the possession of the high­est rulers of the cliurch, at whose di­rection the crown was made. In late years it was ised as th? coronation of Lombardic kings, primarily at tha;

HILLS MAKE MUSIC.C a r l o a a F h e a o a n e a o a T h a t O c c u r , l a

A few miles southwest of a little town which has become famous through the Boer war, Mafeking, lies a mountain of white sand. Perhaps I should say kantis a mountain of whitt wnd, but that would not be true. The sand rises, fulls and shifts about and in so doing makes m usie, or sounds which seem like music, among surroundings so desolate a* a St:at 1) African desert, says the Bos- ton Herald. The highest hill ol sand in thia locality is ibout 700 feet, and there are many lil Hocks round abqut. The whole neighborhood is, however, constantly changing it® appearance, and where there may be a considerable h ill to-day there 4nay be a flat pSain to-morrow. Uhw e secti so be periodic e&ni floods like those in the Arabian desert.

Many, explanations of the cauee ot the music in the *auds have been given, but the mowt satisfactory is that oi friction of the little particles of sand ttpoa one another. As> the rolls down a hum come* from the rubbing ol the particles together. One can seethe gand oonstontly ro lling down the steep banike. A t flret "the froucd ia like a et rain, of d istant stuaic coining through one oi the cliffls riear by. Then it seems like a continuous cathedral chord, very much like a solemn cathedral chant.

A t times if you are srtanddnjf on one of the little hillocks the sounds mt?ia to conob from a burled cloister tinder your feet. There is a rnyfetery and en­chantment about it. all, a dead silence nave lo r the music o f the rolling (SBud is everywhere. It aeema almost Uk«* sac­rilege to break the spell that such con­d ition* brjng.

T ie principle hold which tbe Pe­k in g government haa over the provin­cial officials is the right of appoint­ment and dismissal. A ll officials hold the office during the pleasure of the crown, and can be dismissed -«t any time with o r without reason assigned. No instance has been known bf an official, however h igh ly placed, re­fusing to lay down office and hand over the seals to his successor at the bidding of the emperor or empress. T h is power, it should geem, is suf­ficient to insure prompt obedience to any orders from the court, but it is checked"by the fact- that the suc­cessor to a viceroy or governor so removed must be nelected from among the regular members of the civil serv­ice, who are all imbued with the same traditions of government and the same bureaucratic sp irit.; nThe crowja has never ventured to put: into high office a mere ercature ut its own, or one who has no; regularly entered the service by some recognized chan­nel and risen through the ranks. Such m Attempt would undoubtedly raise a storm of indigntaion throughout the whole pf the country tich as no government could face, says the. Lon-, don Saturday Review.' ?

This leatls us tc- m y, ts word ae *© • tho mode in which the official rahks arc recruited—-a sytstem which has perhaps as much as iany th ing else contributed to the general stability

'. and . moderation' of the government and prevented it from degenerating into s m ilitary dictatorship. E n ­trance to office is obtained* as Is gest-

; erally known, by a system of public .examinations opcM to th hu'jibleBt m s . yveir as. the highest. W ithin re-

to junior rank. A ll prnotlcolly have to 'begin at the foot of the ladder and work their way up. and nil the high posts in the provinces and near­ly all those in Peking are filled with men who ^ave so risen.. Admission Is free to Mancbus and Chinese alike, and until recent years there has been no preference shown in selection.
