Der in more ways than one, the newspaper

found better channel through which to
reach the people in general than the press,
and there has yet to be discovered a cheaper

towards organizing and harmonizing party
than all other agencies combined and what
is more, it generally does all this without
pay or hope of pay. This may seem broad
assertion, but it is nevertheless a true one.
To take advantage of this power should be
the first aim of all political organizations,

TT is pleasant to note that the divorce compli-
cations between theatrical people, which have
often agitated the public in the past by their
volcanic nature, are latterly becoming much
simplified in their character. Divorces them
selves are not less frequent, but the manner iu
which the suits conducted to a successful
issue make them rather pleasant little affairs
than otherwise. There are no determinations, no
agonies, no objections; but the whole matter is
settled in amicable way and with mutual
interchange of compliments, which is highly
commendabe and edifying Divorce Is a matter
of business No actor or actress can afford to
be without one; and it is apparently the proper
caper now TO obtain the article with the least
possible display of vulgar emotion. The latest
stage candidates for legal separaeion-this not
being an advertising column names are not
meNtioned-have reduced the matter to the
most simple everyday basis, which it has yet
reached. They have been married two months,
but have come to the conclusion that they did

SOME HIsToRICAL BLUNpERs.

SOME HISTORICAL BLUNDERS.
The January number of the Century con-
tains a biographical sketch of General
William T, Sherman, by Mr.. E. V. Smalley,
which has attracted very general attention.
Mr.. Smalley is one of the best-known news
paper and magazine writers in the country,
and anything from his pen is read with avid
ity. He essays to write history but his
sketch of General Sherman proves him
blunderer. In it he says that the father of
General Sherman took a fancy to the
character of the Indian chief Tecumseh, who
fourished in the Northwest in the early part
OF the present century, and was killed at the
battle of Tippecanoe." Now, Tecumseh was
not at the battle of Tippecanoe, having gone
South, some time before, to try to unite the
Indian tribes of that section with the con-
federacy he was forming. He returned to
the Wabash shortly after the battle of Tippe-
canoe was fought, and f1ercely denounced his
reached the banks of the Tippecanoe just
in time to witness the dispersion of his fol-
lowers, the disgrace of his brother ard the
final overthrow of the great object of his am
bition union of all the Indian tribes
against the United States; and all this, the
result of a disregard of his positive COM
mands His modification was extreme; and
it is related, on good authority, that when
he first met the Prophet, he reproached him
in bitter terms for having departed from his
instr uctions to preserve peace with the
United States at all hazards The attempt of
the Prophet to pallate his own conduct ex-
cited the naughty chieftain still more, and
seizing him by the hair and shaking him
violently, be threatened to take his life"
Tecumseh was killed at the battle of the
Thames, Oct. 5, 1913 nearly two years after
the battle of Tippecanoe had been fought
Mr.. Smalley makes another blunder in
speaking of Hon. John Sherman, General
Sherman's brother He says Mr.. Sherman
was United States. senator when, at the
time, he was member of the House of Rep

| (then ColoneD Sherman in the winter of
1901, by Governor Moore, of Louisiana, he
was asked to give his opinion upon
the subject of slavery. In making
the request, Governor Moore said:
Colonel Sherman, you can readily under
stand that with your brother the Abolition
list candidate for Speaker, some of our peo-
pie wonder that you should be here at the
s,c. =. of an important State asf---S--' -
| (Sherman's Memoirs vol. l, page 148) Mr..
Smalley refers to this dinner, but he had
read General Sherman's account of it to
little purpose, else he would not have made
the blunder of speaking of John Sherman as
a senator. On the page preceding the one
from which we have quoted, General Sher-
man says: CAT that time my brother, John
Sherman, was a candidate in the national
House of Representatives for Speaker,
against Bocock, of Virginia" Mr.. John
Sherman did not enter the United States
Senate until the spring of 1861, when he was
chosen to fill the vacancy occasioned by the
resignation of Salmon P Chase, who had re-
signed to become Mr. Lincoln's Secretary of
the Treasury.

IN the portrait gallery in the Winter Palace, at
st. Petersburg, visitors shown the tablet
upon which are the rules enforced by the En-
press Catherine at her conversazones These
quaint regulations are thus translated:
1. Leave your rank outside, as well your
hat, and especially your sword.
z Leave your light OF precedence, your pride,
and any similar feeling, outside the door.
3. Be gay, but do not spoil anything; do not
break or guaw anything.
a. Sit, stand, walk as you will. without refer
ence to anybody.
5. Talk moderately and not very loud, so as
not to make the ears and heads of others ache.
6. Argue without anger and without excite
ment.
z. Neither sigh nor yawn, nor make anybody
dull or heavy.
8. In all innocent games, whatever one pro-
poses, let all JOIN.
8. Eat whatever is sweet and savory, but
drink with moderation, SO that each may lind
his legs on leaving the room.
10. Tell no tales out of school: whatever goes
in at one ear must go out OF the other before leaV
ing the room.
A transgressor against these rules shall, on the
testimony of the witness, for every Ofense drink
a glass of cold water, not excepting the ladies,
and, further, read page of the "Telemachiade
aloud.
Whoever breaks any three of these rules dur
ing the same evening shall commit lines OF
the "Telemachiade' to memory. And whoever
offends against the tenth rule shall not again be
admitted

not fully understand each others disposition,
owing to short acquaintance before marriage,
and that consequently there is an Incompatible
ity of temper which precludes the idea of hap
piness. 1t would occur to commonplace hus-
bands and wives to set about getting acquaint-
ed, so as to understand each other; but this Is
not the theatrical idea. They will part, but on
friendly terms and under perfectly pleasing
conditions to BOTH There is no ill feeling. They
will speak well of each other individually and
professionally, and go their separate ways. The
husband, for one, is frank enough to say that he
has not lost nights sleep over the affair, and
thinks his wife is equally placid, which no doubt
she is. This condition of things is very crafty
ing to the public, which is tired of the old style
of animosity ana wordy violence which have
been the accomplishments of such cases in the
past. When the fashion changes still further, so
that theatrical divorces can be had without any
publicity whatever, it will meet with even warm
er approval
