1t was by the advice Of Attorney
General Williams that Grant sustained the
illegal midnight order OF the drunken Durell,
and recognized the usurping government OF
Kellogg IN Louisiana. And Notwithstanding g
the best lawyers in the senate. and a majority
OF the committee of that body, instructed 10
investigate the Louisiana case, declared the
pretended election of Kellogg fraud and his
government usurped and Illegal, Grant sus-
tained him and kept him in power With Fed
eral bayOnets. Still il was evident he felt he
had made a very grave mistake, and when
Davis, Of Texas, appealed to Grant for troops
70 keep himself In the office of governor, 20
which the people OF that State did not elect
him, he refused on the ground that 1t was q
State matter which should be settled by those
interested. He refused troops to Brooks to up
set the result Of an election by the people Of
Arkansas. And when Ames appealed to him
piteously for troops to be used In Mississippi,
whore there was about as much use for them
as there IS for a third wheel to q cart, he told
Ames to attend to his OVID business. It was
thought the lesson be ha7 learned would In
duce him TO keep out of Louisiana affairs at
the present time but he has rushed headlong
into this purely local State matter TO sustain
the usufper Kellogg when every body In Lou
islana appears 10 have deserted him. Does
Williamss bed influence still sway his 1udg-
ment, or is II because the south shows but III
tie favor toward his ttird-term aspirations?
he had better have followed the course he
adopted in the Texas imbrOglio.

A MILITARY GOVERNMENT WANTED
Chicago TimesJ
But the White Leaguers are moi

wholly blameless. 1t is true they had ex-
hausted many of the expedients TO bring about
q better condition of affairs, but thsy had not
tried ali. A wise diplomacy would have sug-
gested the endurance o. the Ills under when
they suffered, with a sincere effort TO mil gate
them. By assuming the offensive in an appeal
70 AIMS they are placed at a disadvantage, for
even their well-wIshers must admit that the
Federal cannon must be pointed at their
ranks; that the military must defend Kellogg
az ell hazards, even though he may be in the
wrong. The result can be easily fOreseen: :
The military must take possession not only OF
the city, but OF the State government, and
congress must assume the responsi bilijy OF re-
orgaui zing the State. This is what many Of
the White Leaguers want, and il the pres
ent outbreak results in the dep ,sition of keI-
logg and the establishment OF a temporary
military government, they VIII regard the
compensation as worth the cost.

ADICAL SYMPATHY
st. Louis Democrat.I

We cannot repress a strong feeling ol
sympathy for the tax payers OF Louisiana
and vet II should not bind as 10 the fact thai
they have no right 10 resort 10 arms. Il b
very true uKellosg has outraged tile con
Gdence placedl In his word when he promised
to veto registrs ton acts passed by the last
leaislature-a promise by which he prevented
action by congress at the last session, and in
duced the people to keep order up to this
time, But that very deception would have
been q powerful weapon against him in the
hands OF those Republican senators who nave
50 strongly demanded relief for the people OF
Louisiana, and who would have renewed the
demand at the opening OF congress in De-
cemher. We very much fear that instead Of a
peaceful solution next winter, the people OF
that unhappy State have now, by this resort
to arms, been plunged into deeper difficulties.
Most sincerely we hope that Their sober second
thought may prompt them 10 obey the pro
clamatlOn OF the Pres dent, 10 realize. that he
will be Obliged TO enforce the laws, 10 refrain
from armed opposition. and 20 rely upon the
justice OF the American people.

The SILENT MONKS. Charles Warren

The SILENT MONKS. Charles Warren
Stoddard writing to the San Francisco
Chronicle, says: away up the hill that
overlooks Naples, and Just under the grand
Castle of St. Elmo, stands the Carthusian
monastery of San Martina. The monks
who once inhabited the glorious palace
for it is nothing less were men OF noble
birth and vast fortune. Founded in 1929
by Duke Charles of Calabria, it was en-
riched by the wealth OF the monks, and
the church is now one OF the most magni-
ticent in Italy. Agate, jasper. lapis-lazuli,
amethyst, Egyptian granite, and fossil
wood, together with marbles of every tint,
are SO blended in mosaics that line the
whole editice, and the carvings are so rich
and graceful, that the interiors of some of
the chapels seem like Eden bowers trans
fixed by miracle and frozen into stone.
The decorations of the hi Oh altar, since
despoiled by the French, were of gold,
silver and bronze, and even diamonds were
set in its exquisite ornamentation There
are cloisters of white marble, gardens,
courts and balconies overhanging the city,
from which the view is indescribably mag
niticent. And in this lovely spot lived a
brotherhood who came from the first cir
cltA Oh society anu buried themselves III
this gorgeous tomb for it was little else
The monks took a VOW of perpetual 81
lence, lived apart, ate apart. and met only
for the unsocial hours of prayer, when
each was wrapped in his owl meditation
and no one uttered syllable Each OF
the little cells where they slept had a
small window or closet communicating
with one of the corridors, and into this
closet was placed the frugal meal, which
was then taken into the cell and eaten in
solitude Every quarter OF an hour bell
struck to remind the listeners that they
We're so much nearer their death. In the
garden the ratings are ornamented with
marble skulls, and the ouly sounds that
used to disturb this splendid solitude was
the tread Of sandaled feet, the rustic OF
long white robes, or the clang Of the bell
that told off their solemn lives in brief mo-
ments, that yet might have seemed long
to them. These monks, like most others
in Italy have been driven from their re-
treat and all their treasures confscated by

In Delmonico's Wine Cellar,

A writer who has been down in the
wine cellar of Delmonico's famous saloon.
in New York, writes of it as follows:
The dark and dingy region extends
away out under the front yard and the
Fourteenth street sidewalk The chef
gave several mysterious raps at the door
OF this place, which, as it swung back on
its hinges to admit Of our entrance, waited
a stream OF cool air and musty odors from
the dismal vaults. Bottles to the right OF
and bottles to the left of us, with here and
there key OF hogshead. Forty thousand
bottles OF wine, so the chef informed me.
are slowed away in these vaults The
most called for wines are champagnes and
the most expensive Burgundies, although
there are few bottles of sherry that are
the most expensive on the list These
costly Burgundies sell for $lS and 500
bottle-an awful price for a little grape
juice. 10 cap the climax, the presiding
genius of these vaults showed me a bottle
of sherry sealed with delicate green wax
and covered with dust and cobwebs, of
the vintage of 1909, that was worth $50.
This precious liquor had been in Mr.
Delmonico's possession for over thirty
years, and he has its record for the other
thirty. TO drink such wine as that would
be like drinking gold.
The wine cellar was the last of this lit
tie world underground that l visited, and
after thanking the polite chef, ! came up
into daylight and fashion 1t might be
well to say that the kitcherof Delmonico's

had the house been built for a restaurant
however, it would be hard to find more
convenience for cooking. There are, be
it known, four of l.. Delmonico's restau-
rants in this city The old place founded
over thirty years ago, at the corner of
South William and Beaver streets, one in
Broad street, where it is said that there is
more champagne sold than in any other
place in New York, one on the corner of
Broadway and Chambers street, and the
one whose kitchen l have just described.
This latter place has few boarders but
1t IS not at all like hotel. The gentle
men who live there have done so ever
since the place was opened

pavement on Fourteenth street, before

The New Orleans Times tells us that

recent instance: Before the war, a fami-

RESISTING THE EVIL ONE At camp
meeting, not long ago a man, clad in ;
thin linen suit, seated himself on one o
the rickety benches beside fat man who
occupied full third Of the concern.
When the services were ended, the far
man arose, and the gentleman in thin
linen suddenly began twisting about in 9
surprising manner, while his countenance
was significant Of mortal agony.
His actions attracted the attention Of
the brethren, and one of them, solemn
visaged individual, who looked as though
he had just swallowed pill, approached
the writing body, and laid his hand on
the mans shoulder and said
"Brother if you are resisting the temp
tations OF the evil one. strive mantully,
and you will triumph at last Remember
that Jacob wrestled with the angel and
Il dunno but he did," interrupted the
