The President CONSTANT.

Richmond, Va, State, (Dem)
Thus far President Cleveland's course
has been more CONSTANT than that o!
any preceding president since the war
he has made fewer mistakes, and has
stood upon the platform he announced
when he was nominated. For a man OF
such pronounced opinions he has created
fewer antagonisms, although he differs
so radically with some influential mem
bers of his party on important questions,
notably those of silver and the tariff. II
is the day of new men, of fresh blood, OF
alert ideas. The great democratic vic
tory has revivified the country, and there
is going to be what may be tersely called
a lively time.

GOLDEN AEESHES. e"

The Argument of Miss Maud Howe's
Story.
Here, in nutshell, is the argument Of
Miss Maud Howe,s Golden Meshes;"
can artist, Sidney Appleton, dreams Of
an immortal picture that he will paint of
Sappho He looks in vain for his model.
At last he finds her in Nella, young
FIorentine maiden of II. She has a
wealth of wonderful golden hartman
velous tresses that make her very sun
goddess She has the ideal face for his
Sappho, save that it lacks all the deeper
significance of love. 1t is Undine be-
fore soul came to her. For the sake of
his picture-for the love of his art-Sd
dey Colvin teaches her what love means,
and with this dawning knowledge the
expression of deeper womanly life comes
to her. Her face has gained all the sub
tie significance that the artist needs for
the picture that is to give him immortal
fame. After year he tires of Nella ;
he seeks for bride fair English girl,
and Nella, in fit of passionate despair,
cuts off her golden tresses and leaves
them braided to the little balcony in the
studio and rushes away to end her life
by suicide. The picture had been fin
ished, all save the hair. She left her
golden hair as a model. The shock to
the artist was such that for year he
wandered in other cities, not entering

unseen force against his own will
brought him back. The sight Of the
! golden hair made him frenzied, and af-
ter painting wildly for day on the I'M
finished Sappho, he strangled himself in
the meshes of golden hair-the fatal
Golden Meshes.' Here his promised
bride finds him-dead."

The Golden Decade.

FROM queries
DIR. Beard states that from an analysis
of the lives of thousand representative
men in all the great branches of human
effort, he had made the discovery that
the golden decade was between 80 and
40, the silver between 40 and so, the
brazen between 90 and 30, the iron be-
tween so and so. This superiority of
youth and middle life over old age in
original work appears all the greater,
when we consider the fact that nearly
all the positions of honor and profit and
prestige professorships and public sta
tions-are in the hands of the old. Rep
utation, like money and position, is
mainly confined to the old. Men are not
widely known until long after they have
done the work that gives them their
fame. Portraits Of great men are de-
fusion; statues are lies. They are taken
when men have become famous, which,
on the average, is at least 25 years after
they did the work which gave them
their fame. Original work requires en-
thusiasm. If all the original work done
by men under As were annihilated, the
world would be reduced to barbarism.
Men are at their best at that time when
enthusiasm and experience are most
evenly balanced; this period on the av-
erage is from 80 to 40. In the life of al
most every old man there comes a point
sooner or later, when experience cases to
have any educating mower

A New York correspondent calls
attention to the decline of the once
great iobbing trade done in that
city He states that not a single
Hebrew is now connected with that
business, which fact indicates, he
thinks, that it is no longer an aven-
ne to wealth. Many Of the report
ed New York iobbers attribute to
the house Of Clafin, more than to
any other, New York's loss OF pres
tige as jobbing centre. For years.
they say, the firm have had what
might be called Clafin branches III
many parts of the country. These
branches did almost entirely job
bing and retailing business. Their
stocks were supplied by Clatiin on
long credit, which, with other PRIV
ileges, permitted them to sell at
prices almost identical with those
asked by the big jobbing houses of
New York. a member Of one of
the largest iobbing houses in that
city said a few days ago: q am in
clined to think that the iobbing
trade is rather waning in New York
at least it is not what it was. There
are all sorts Of competition to face.
Certain big Chicago houses can sell
as low as New York jobbers and
save freights. Then our expenses
are enormous, and the losses by
many small failures are sufficient to
wipe out the profits Of many bic
bills" Another merchant referred
to the recent enormous auctions OF
the last three years, and said that
was another influence that was driv.
ing the jobbing trade from New
York. The announcement of these
sales brought merchants into almost
direct contact with the manufacture.
ers, and jobbing houses were left
out In the cold. At one of these
sales there were fully 800 merchants
IN attendance, who had come from
as far west as San Francisco, and as
far south as New Orleans, and over
S3,o00,o0o worth of domestic cotton
and wooden goods were disposed OF
In single day. ExJ Judge Hilton
the executor of the great Stewart
estate, thought that the iobbino
trade had seen its best days in New
York. He added: ''The great west
no longer was forced to buy its
goods in this city. Big houses have
started up in Chicago, St. Louis
Cincinnati, Cleveland and ATilwau
kee, which are the centres for the
trade of the surrounding country
These houses order direct from the
manufacturers at home and abroad
on the same terms that are obtained
by the New York jobbers, and the
goods are delivered at their doors Al
prices identical with those asked IN
New York.
