The Washington Post has male the
discovery that the Democracy in the
House is without leader-that is to say.
''thc talent of the party is in the rear and
the mediocrity I'm 'front.'" When brains
settle down in that way there must Be
some reason for it. The blow is aimed
at Randall. who is the metaphorical
head of the party, and is supposed to
come from Sunset Cox and Morrison,
owners of the talent hanging about the
party's coat-tails, SO to speak.

THE Queens speech on the opening of
the British Parliament does not give
color to the alarming reports of the in
tention of Great Britain to assume an at
titude hostile to Russia. Hitherto, the
Parliament is assured. neither of the
belligerents has violated any of the con-
ditions upon which the neutrality Of the
British government is based. The Of
fees of the government have been EN-
ployed to bring hOstilities to an end, and
as the Car, like the Porte. is anxious
for Peace. it is hoped it may be concluded
without any necessity Oh the part OF
England to change her amicable rela-
TORS to either power.

The island of Malta, about which SO
much has been said i'll connection with
the probability of England becoming in
vOlved in the eastern war, has been for
more than seventy years one of the
strongest of the British fOrtresses. In
case Of Il general war, the little island
would become very uncomfortable sore
spot for the Mediterranean powers enter
ing the contest against England. Its po-
sition, just south of Sardinia, and i'll the
great highway of Mediterranean. trade.
makes it a pretty valuable piece OIL
ground. AS Cardinal Manning proposes
that the next conclave of Roman Catho.
lie prelates shall be held at Malta, the
island bids fair to assume new promi.

IT is a noteworthy fact that the two
men who have latterly been the most
emphatic in declaring that the South
will not ask payment for her war losses
are Messrs. Hill, of Georgia, and Mills, OF
Texas, both of whom voted in the last
House against the Hunter proposition to
put this matter. finally at rest by the
adoption of a constitutional amendment.

A Monster Sled.

A NEW and remarkable " double-rip-
per-" built for several gentlemen of the
Bridgeport Coasting Club, will be taken
to Milford to participate in the coasting
carnival. tits about thirty feet long, and
has handles and troughs running
through the whole length. Over the front

by means of pulleys attached to the
front sled. A fifteen-inch gong to ring
while coasting and a powerful brake
are arranged Immediately behind the
" steerer. The sled is strengthened
by means of truss between the small
sleds. 1t will seat twenty-eight per-
sons, and carry 5000 pounds weight.
The materials used are Norway and
Ulster iron, cast steel, hickory, and
ash, the whole being oiled, vanished

An Honest Bank Clerks Reward.

THERE is nothing so certain to secure
a young mans advancement in life and
in the favor of his superiors as close at
tention to business, even if to do his
work the young man sacrifices his COM
fort and works long beyond hours. For
instance, a clerk in St. Louis bank, a
junior clerk, only getting $S40 a year,
while making up his books last week,
found an error of $1.16 in his favor.
He checked and rechecked the books,
but could find nothing wrong. Many a
young man in this conditioS of affairs
would have put the money in hisp cket
and said to himself; " Finding is keep
ing; I'll just salt this away, and if | find
out afterward that it belongs to any
one more than no one else, why, I'll
give it back" But the still, small voice
of conscience insisted on making itself
heard. THAT Sill is not yours" it

Suspension OF a Firm 112 Years Old.

THE suspension of the firm of c. j.
Fell & Brother, wholesale dealers in
spices, was the topic of conversation in
business circles yesterday. 1t is the
oldest and largest firm in the trade in
the United States. Founded in 1866 on
small scale at its present location,
four generations have successfully con-
trolled the business of the house. In
the 112 years of its existence it never
until last Wednesday had a note pro-
tested, and it battled successfully the
panics of 1887 and 1857, when so many
large houses failed. The house is well
known from Maine to California. The
present members of the firm have con-
Quoted the business since 1864. All
their goods are imported. The spices
are all ground at the firms mills, at
Falkland, Del, on the Brandywine,
which are the largest of the kind
in the country. The business of the
firm amounts to about $4,000 900 per
year. Their best market is California.
The suspension is supposed to be only
emporary.-PhiLadelphia Times.

PROCRASTINATION

VI fortune, with smiling face,
Strew roses on our way,
When shall we stoop to pick them up?
To-day, my love, to-day,
But should she frown with face of care,
And talk of coming sorrow,
When shall we grleve, If grieve we must!
Tomorrow, love, tomorrow.
If those who've wronged us own their faults
Ana kindly pity pray,
VNhsn shall we listen and forgive?
To-day. my love, to-day.
.SsYt if stern Justice urge rebuke,
.AasA warmth from memory borrow,
~ hen shall we chide (if chide we dare)?
Tomorrow, love, tomorrow.
IL those to whom we owe debt
Are harmed unless we pay,
When shall we struggle to be just?
To-day, my love, to-day.
But IF our debtor fails our hope,
And pleads his ruin thorough,
TA,hen shall we weigh his breach of faith?
Tomorrow, love, tomorrow.
IL love, estranged, should once again
Her genial smile display
When shall we kiss her proffered lips!
To-day, my love, to-day.
But. if she would indulge regret,
Or dwell with bygone sorrow,
When shall we weep Cif weep we must)?
Tomorrow, love, tomorrow.
For virtuous acts and harmless joys
The minutes will not stay;
We've always time to welcome them
To-day, my love, to-day.
But care, resentment, angry words,
And unavailing sorrow,
Come far too soon, if they appear
Tomorrow, love, tomorrow.

Dangers Of the Telephone.

A YOUNG man from Syracuse brought
a couple of telephones and coil of wire
rope to Rome last week, and in the
evening he went around to house
where a girl lives, and whistled softly
until one of the upper windows was
opened, as he expected it would be.
Then he threw one of the telephones up
in the window and whispered into the
other instrument: care you there,
darling?" Sharp and clear came the
answer: Eyes, I'm here, and if you'll
wait till get my boots on you Il think
you have been elected for the next
world by $4,000 majority" He had hit
the wrong window Rome Sentinel.

A FUNNY incident occurred in an AL
bion mich. church the other Sunday.
A college professor preached, and from
excessive dullness, or otherwise, put
the worthy pastor, who sat in the pull
pit with him, into a sound sleep, from
which he was with some difficulty
awakened to make the. closing prayer.
When, therefore, in the course of the
prayer, he thanked the Almighty for
the refreshing" they had received
through the administrations of the broth
er who had just spoken, a smile, almost
audible, ran through the amused con-
gregation.

Victor Emmanuels Love OF Fighting.

KING VICTOR EMMANUEL was espe-
cially fond of fight. At the battle
of Goito, in 1849, he charged, at the
head of regiment, an Austrian bat
terry, and showed the same courage dur
ing the eighteen hours strife at Novara.
On travelling once in a carriage, without
escort. to his chateau of Polenzo. he
found a number of gendarmes exchang-
ing shots with brigands. Victor EN-
manuel seized the carbine with which
he travelled and aided the gendarmes,
two of whom were killed at his side.
The brigands who were not killed finally
fled. The officer in command of the
gendarmes was much astonished on
learning that the King was his new re-
cruit
