Des~cription Of an American Dandy

Ellis dark-colored, cutaway frock coat
writes a novelist describing an American
dandy, fitted his handsome form without
o wrinkle, almost as smoothly as a mole
skin or the back of its plump little owner.
His large, glossy cuffs showed prominently
below the sleeves of his coat. His cuff
buttons consisted of a single alligator's
tooth of exquisite polish set in plain gold.
They had been presented by a friend who
spent his winters in Florida. Roker's collar
was immaculate. His lowered silk tie was
dainty product of high art in the furnish
ing goods line. His boots exhibited the per-
lection of the polishing art. He carried a
twisted cane, and was just lighting a choice
Havana cigar, r~--Exchanpe.

The Sand Around the sphynx.

Operations have been lately begun for
the purpose Of clearing away the mass Of

Sphinx. Brughsch Bey, brother of the

the work, which is being carried out ac-
cording to a plan proposed by Signor Mas
pero, and it will, it is expected, be finished
by Easter. The portion of the statue at
present above ground is about forty feet.
1t is suppose that as much more, at least,
is buried in the sand, and the amount Of
sand to be cleared away Is estimated at
10000 cubic meters. A small tramway is
being constructed to carry away this mass
Of sand to a distance, and 100 Iaborers are
employed on the task. When the statue
has been laid bare to the level of the
foundations a broad circular walk will. be

Blair and Prohibition.

Senator Blair. it eeems. will oppose
high license in the District of Colu mDia'
BE is a prehibitionist, and he opposes
high license not only because he does not
believe in sanctienlng in any way, the
liquor traffic, but also because ne De-
lieves that it would postpone for a long
time the adoption OF prohibition.
His assertion that prohibition in the
near future will be the great national is
sue is worthy Of careful consideration,
even from those who have little or no
sympathy with it. There is no room for
doubt that prohibition is making remark
able progress. Even in those sections OF
the country where there has, as yet, been
no attempt to create prohibition
sentiment there is found to be strong sym
patty with prohibition.
A committee has just been appointed in
New Jersey to secure temperance legisla-
ton in that State this winter. The Legis-
lature will be asked to pass local option
law similar TO the one in force in this
State.
In other States the prohibition move
ment is gaining strength very rapidly.
Politicians who have been accustomed TO
pay little attention to it, and to treat IT as
il 1t would not amount to much, are now
forced to regard it seriously. For the
want OF live issue Of A purely political
character-such an issue as appeals to the
conscience or affects tho interests OF the
masses-there is a probability that pro-
hibition will become a great issue. 1t is
certain that a good many very sagacious
and careful observers tank that they see
signs OF a struggle for prohibition as great
as any of the struggled which have taken
place in the political history OF the coun-
try.
There is one thing which the prohibition
leaders ought not to let pass unnOticed.
1t is that prohibition has not been gener-
ally successful where it has been mixed
With politics. In no State has it made
such great and substantial progress as in
this state. Indeed. Georgia may fairly
be called the leading prohibition State.
Is it not the fact that its success in this
State is largely due to the tact that it has
not been made a political issue? II it is,
wouldn't it be advisable to keep 1t out OF
politics in all the Statesf 1t has sufficient
merit to commend it to the majority OF
each of the great political parties. 1t is
in a position, therefore, to win enough
active supporters in each party to insure
il such legislation as it needs.
Senator Blair is well-meaning man,
but not a very practical one. He does
very we'll to start a reform but is hardly
the sort of a man to lead it to success.
