Our earth is much further from the solar

Silurian eras, and Saturn is much more dis

The Military Bill.

In the heading of the Atlanta special
published in the MORNING NEWS
of Sept. "a, giving an account of the
passage Of the military bill in the House
of Representatives, due credit was not
given to Col. Peter Reilly, who has de-
voted great deal of his time to securing
It's favorable consideration by the mem
bers. The opponents OF the bill made a
stubborn fight against it, but Col. Reilly,
by the sklllful handling of the measure,
secured for the military the substantial
recognition Of the State of the value o.
the services of her citizen soldiery. Col
Reilly deserves the thanks of the military
OF Georgia. He was congratulated on his
victory by some of the ablest and mos t
experienced members of the House o.
representatives.

that the piano was a detriIsent rather than

declares that piano PLAYING degrades the
whole science of music by bringing it down TO
vulgar level. There are so many middlIng
players who infiict tn mselycs on society. in
season and oet OF season, that music has got
to be esteemed a bore. What NJ. PagrannQ
chiefly objects TO is the inducement offered by
piano playing to Young girls and other people
devoid of real musical talent To spend large

plishment in which they are doomed never to
excel. Any musician who has been cOmpelle ed

The Woman's Temperance Union Of
Boston claims that il has been instru-
mental in procuring laws in fourteen
States for compulsory education on the
effects OF liquor drinking. 1t Ia said that
"the society now seems to feel the re-
sponsibility Of indicating what the lessons
ought 10 be. 1t has been decided that, in
Massachusetts at least, children shall be
instructed that alcohol is never desirable
as an article OF food. that any consider
able indulgence IN Il is sure to be CORE
spondingly injurious 70 the body, and
that mental and moral ruin is bound TO

doubt done a noble work, but II ought TO

in other parts OF the country to have a
small share OF the honor.

state. the Democratic convention has chal-

eight months by his coadjutOr aud successor.

The World gives the following sketch
of the Republican candidate for Governor
of New York: "Ira Davenport, the Re
publican candidate for Governor, was
Comptroller Of this State during 1882 and
1888. He received that nomination In
1881, and at the election polled the largest
majority Of any candidate on the Repub-
lican State ticket. Mr.. Davenport was
born in Hornellsville, June %, 1871.
His father was Col. Ira Davenport, and
possessed large estates in Steuben coun-
ty. of which he was one of the earliest
settlers. Mr.. DavenpOrt's mother was
the daughter Of Dugald Cameron, of
Bath, N. Y, which town Mr.. Davenport
has made his home. The town owes
much to his generosity and enterprise.
During lS7S-79 he represented the TWEEN
ty-seVenth Senatorial district in the Sem
ate and vas chairman of the Committee
on Commerce and Navigation and men,
Der of the Committee on Canals and Re-
trenchment. When reelected to the Sem
ate for lSS0-Sl he received the largest ma
iority ever given in his district. During
this latter term Of office he served as
Chairman OF the Commerce Committee
and as a member of the Committees on
Railroads and on Erection and Division
of Towns and Counties. Since his par
ticipation in politics Mr.. Davenport has
not associated himself in any regular

The Bourbon Republicans heaped un-

ters" Of New York last winter. Now the
New York Post has this To say about the
peculiar position OF the Nugwumps:
"The Independent yoters may well plume
themselves upon the good effects Of their
'recreancy! Instead Of being bounced
from the party as traitors, they have been
permitted 10 dictate the nomination Of
the party's entire ticket" This taunt
doubtless cuts the Bourbon Republican
leaders 10 the heart.
