There are some lessons to be drawn IRON
the startling defalcation in the Tennessee
State Treasury. Polk had family" anG
Tennessee is state in which that count
for something. He was nephew OF hi
uncle, James K. Polk, President oil The
United states. He was born on the soil Of
the state whose already blackened escutch
con he has further sullied. II he had beer
OF the reyiled sect OF carpetbaggers, any
fine old native Tennesseean would have
been able to render reason for his ras
cality.
Polk was fifty years Of age; old enough
to know better, old enough to know thai
Treasury funds are not for the persona
use Of the Treasurer, old enough to com
pnte the wages OF sin. Above all he wal
old enough to know that Wall street is
whirlpool In which the stoutest craft under
skillful navigators go down. Folks ha9
its, so far as the world knew, were good
Men who play for big stakes rarely waste
their time and chance on those small vices
which gossips love to pass along the line
A generous liver, OF many fragrant little
weaknesses, is not often plotting a grea,
crime.
Polk lived in an atmosphere OF insensi
bility to sacred obligation, OF popular bad
faith. He was one OF community which
had studied how to defraud its crediton
and had "scaled" them out Of their rights
How much public sentiment had to dc
with making him the ascending thiefthai
he is, should be an interesting speculation
for the people OF Tennessee as they look on
the haliIa million void in their Treasury
A State false 10 Its obliga'
tions and boastful Of its bad
faith can not expect to be served by faith
full officers. Like begets like. low pub
lie sentiment debauches the public mind
Dishonesty, fostered and practiced as .
State policy, is not cut by State lines. The
State that pays creditors with perfidy mus
expect at some time to be paid back in its
own coin. Tares grow where tares are
sayed-the bright golden wheat from SEED
as fair.
And see how the loose morals OF the
community served the dishonest Treasurer
when he was making final gathering o
the loot for his flight A few days
before he absconded he refused to pay The
interest on bonds recently funded as {
make shift, and he based his refusal OF
the ground that the people were opposed t
the payment. Under this shield-whicf
would have shamed high.minded people
he pocketed the interest money ant
made off with It. Folks oilense is rank
but what can his State say for itself-wha
can the people say who have set up fraue
as virtue, and bowed down to worship
golden calf OF hideous form? Men d.
not gather grapes from thorns nor fig
from thistles.

The Human Figure.

The proportions Of the human fig
ure are six times the length of the
feet. Whether the form is slender
or plump, the rule holds good any
deviation from it is a departure from
the highest beauty in proportion.
The Greeks made all their statues
according to this rule. The face,
from the highest point Of the fore
head, where the hair begins, to the
chin, is one-tenth Of the whole stat
ure. The hand, from the wrist to
the middle finger, is the same.
From the top of the chest to the
highest point Of the forehead, is a
seventh. II the face, from the roots
Of the hair to the chin, be divided
into three equal parts, the first di-
vision determines the place where
the eyebrows meet, and the second
nostrils. The height, from the top
Of the head, is the distance from the
extremity Of the fingers when the
ms arc extended.

collision was inevitable unless he checked
up, instead of staying at
his post and stopping the engine,
as passengers say he could have done, he
reversed brakes and leaped off, letting the
engine 90, crushing broad side into the
middle OF the passenger tram. There were
eighteen persons in the passenger car and
the scene was frightiul. Men, women and
Gu ldren were knocked out of their seats in

fire instantly and was wrapped in flames
