gan at IL A. NJ. and continued without

brought on the track, and after o little
warming up. Wm. Bair driving,
iodded for a start, and gave the mare

IF spectators went wild with enthusiasm
when the mare crossed the score, and
again when the time was bulletined

uibted no sign of distress alter her un-
PARALLEL performance, and was led to
Ter stable amid excited cheering, follow.
cd by crowd Of jubilsnt admirers. She
aad no work for ten days. Capt. Hene
Is confident she could easily trot the
same track on Monday in 2:0S, or better,
land is more than ever confident she is
Tho fastest trotter in the world. Presi-
dent Edwards telegraphed w. II. Van

When Should There be Change?

From the Toledo (Mio) Blode.
There are any number of good and
sufficient reasons why the Democrats
should not be given power over the
Nation, or any part of it.
There are absolutely none why the
Republicans should be deprived of any
portion of that power.
Never has the country been so uni
formly prosperous as now.
Never has there been such general
efficiency in all the Departments of the
Government, such unbroken fidelity and
effectiveness in every branch of the
public service.
Never has there been such freedom
from scandal and charges of corruption.
The btterest opponents of the Repub
lican party cannot point to where there
is ground for even suspecting wrong
doing, corruption or laxity. They can
not show a single unworthy, incompe
tent or dishonest officer, who should be
removed, but is upheld by the parry
organization.
They cannot point out single I'M
just or oppressive law which the Repub-
lican party retains on the statute-book
against the better sense of the people.
They cannot point to a single official
practice that should be abolished.
In short, there is nothing absolutely
nothing-in the Republican administra-
ton of the laws-in the character of
the men put in ofice-in the plans pro-
posed for the future by the Republicans,
but what receives the sanction of the
best thought of the country.
Therefore, what possible reason can
there exist for a change, and especially
for change which is liable to lead to
such terrible consequences as villas
always has-followed the induction of
the Democracy into power.

General Logan was always leader in

the most urgent advocates of the arrears

for liberal appropriations for river aud
harbors and has given his support to
proper railroad land-grant measures.
His greatest efforts Of late years have
been directed against the restoration of

on this question occupying several days
each time it has been before the Senate.
His personal honesty has never been

Tie Worlds Great Bells

In the "Curiosity Shop" of the Chi
cago Inter Ocean we find the follow
ing: Russia is in the lead in the line
of bells, some of her manufacture
being the most famous of the world.
1t is said that in Moscow alone, before
the great fire, there were no fewer than
I,7o6 large bells. One called the
Giant, which was cast in the sixteenth
century and broken by falling from its
support, and recast in 1854, was SO
large that it required twenty-four men
to ring it; its weight was estimated at
oSS,ooo pounds. 1t was suspended
from an immense beam at the foot of
4 beethoven, but it again fell during the
fire of June 10, 1906, and was a sec
ond time broken to fragments, which
were used with additional materials in
1882 in castirg the King of Bells, still
to be seen in Moscow. Some falling
timbers in the fire of 1887 broke 4
piece from its side, which has never
been replaced. This bell is estimated
to weigh 1882 pounds it is nine
teen feet three inches high, and mea
sures around the margin sixty eet,nine
inches. Its value in metal alone is es-
timated to amount to upward of $780,
900. ST. VANS, also in Moscow, is
forty feet nine inches in circumference,
sixteen and one-half inches thick and
weighs 1880 pounds. The bells of
China rank next to those of Russia in
size. In Pekm there are seven bells,
each of which, according to Father lie
Compile, weighs I2o, 1000 pounds. The
weight of the leading great bells of the
world may be seen in the following:
