ParneII Confident.


Notwithstanding that Mr.. Gladstone,
as the leader of the Liberal party, ap-
pears TO be less inclined than he
was few weeks ago TO pledge
himself to use his influence to secure
Irish home rule, and ALTHOUGH ireland
has little to hope for from Lord Salisbury,
the present head Of the government, MI.
Parnell is apparently confident that he
will soon succeed in getting about all be
has been struggling for since he has be-
come the recognized leader OF the Irish
cause.
He says boldly and openly that he will
be satisfied with nothing less, and
will accept nothing less than an
Irish Parliament which shall have full
control Of all of Ireland's affairs and inter
ests. II he succeeds in getting such
Parliament he will have shown himself
to be leader OF extraoi binary ability.
There is every reasan to think that Mr..
Gladstone was inclined, soon after the
elections, TO favor a Parliament tor Ire
land, and would have favored it perhaps
had he not discovered that he could not
carry his party with him. Any attempt
on his part to meet the demands Of MIR.
Parnell would undoubtedly cause
a split in the Liberal party. He could
not afford, Of course, to pursue any course
In which he would not be sustained by
his party, because unless it stood by him
almost solidly be could do nothing.
Mr.. Parnell expects nothing from Lord
Salisbury. He has understood all along
that while he might expect some conces-
sions from the party in charge of the gov
eminent, he could not reasonably expect
any where near what he desired.
/ He is much better prepared to fight the
/ battles of Ireland in the present. than he
/ was in the last, Parliament. His follow
ing is much greater, and neither the Lib
erals nor the Conservatives can carry on
the government without help from their
! opponents. Lord Salisbury evidently
! hopes that the Liberals will render MIN
what aid he may need TO carry on the
! government. In this he may be disap-
pointed If he should be it is pretty GER
tain that he would go out of power
before yielding to Mr.. ParnelPs dictation.
II he should surrender the government
! Mr.. Gladstone is not in position to take
! it. There would have to be anew election
and that is just what MIR. Parnell wants.
He believes that by a renewal of the con-
test at the ballot box his strength in Par
! Lament would be increased.
Mr.. Parnell makes very light of the
demonstrations against an Irish Parlia-
ment which has taken place in Ireland,
and declares they were all inspired by the
landlords. He has no fears, of course,
that Ireland would not be able to manage
her own affairs, OF that the establishment
Of an Irish Parliament would be followed
by disorders, disturbances or civil war.
If Ireland can get home rule he is conf
dent that she will be peaceful and pros
perOus

The Situation stated.

The Macon telegraph regrets that the
Council of that city has refused to in
crease the retail liquor dealers license in
compliance with the demand of an almost
unanimous public sentiment, and it says
that the liquor trade is unwlse in resist
ing high license. With reference to the
outlook for the liquor traffic in the State
it says:
1t is as surely settled now as il the
work had already been accom- lished,
that the low class of barroOms must 90.
The only question is whether or not, under
a system of high license, adopted for the
purpose OF combining this trade 10 more
respectable and responsible set of men,
the better class of retailers will be per-
mitted to continue the business.
The next Legislature Of Georgia will be
largely in favor Of prohibition. IT the ae-
tion OF the Mayor and Council of Macon
shall be found to represent the methods
that are proposed TO be adopted in locali-
ties where the evil cannot be reached by
local option il may be depended upon that
the Legislature will take hold Of the mat
ter. and by a general law prohibit the re-
tail of liquor altogether.
To our mind this result is plainly indi-
cated now, and what is left Of the liquor
and nothing to gain by detying that senti-
ment which demands high license as the
least that can be accepted.
This is about what we have said time
and again. The prohibition movement
has reached point in this State where
the prohibitionists are masters of the
situation. About four-ffths OF the coun-
ties are in their hands, and they will be
in a position in the next Legislature to
pass such laws with respect TO
the liquor traffic as they may
deem ADVISABLE. They could in
all probability have secured the passage
of prohibition, instead Of a local option
law last summer, and perhaps would
have done so had they been urged. The
liquor trade may oppose the closing Of the
low class of barrOoEls in the counties
in which prohibition has not vet
been adopted, and attempts may be
made TO punish those who favor closing
them, but such course will be only an-
other argument, which will certainly be
used, in favor OF general prohibition

He Studied Human Nature


81 tell YOU wot 1t is, it pays ter study human
nature" remarked little, grizzly man with
a gray tippet around his neck, who was stand
M on Madison street. near the bridge. On
either side OF him, about ten feet distant, was
a pail with lemon drops heaped on the top.
(which is your stand" inquired his audi
tor.
look of seOrn at the questioner.
II owns 'em both, young man. That's my
scheme. IL pays ter study human natur. see
that MANI" said the little old man, lowering
his voice. "Wateh him now"
The man indicated was Just passing the first
"Lemol Lemof' shriily shouted the little
man Warranted to cure coughs and colds
Only cents, half-dime."
The stranger, as he passed the first outpost
OF lemon drops, looked at them In scared
way cut Of the corners OF his eyes. He seemed
torn by contandlng emotions. He faltered for
an instant, and seemed on the point Of stop
ping and turning back. Then. as # lighting
the temptation away, he passed on.
Watch him. whispered the little old man.
The stranger walked by with firm tread
and determined look GU MS race. When he
came to the second relay of lemon drops he
stopped. He almost staggered; a look of
resignation swept over his face, and, jamming
his hand down into mis- pocket, he halted be-
fore the lemon drops.
The little old maA was already on hand to
wait upon him. When the customer had de-
parted, munching his lemon drops. the little
gray-tippeted old man gave vent to horse
chuckle.
They're all alike" he said. ''Fhey see the

hate to turn back, and that decides the case
against me. Now, ! put this other pail O.

men can resist one temptation, but precious
few kin stan two in rapid suction. I've

1t ought to be and doubtless is a source
Of satisfaction to Philadelphia that the
great Girard trust, from which so
many of Philadelphia's brightest chill
dren have received and continue to re-
ceive benefits, has been so carefully,
wisely and honestly managed. Dishon-
esty and extravaganza are not unusual
in the management of the city's affairs,
and private Institutions are not unfre-
quently robbed by officials, but somehow
or other there has never been shown a
disposition TO wrongfully appropriate a
dollar OF this great estate.
Notwithstanding there was great
falling of last year in the incomes OF in-
dividuals and corporations there was but
a slight diminution in the receipts from
the Girard trust. The capital Of the resi-
duary fund is Si0,5i99T7, and the gross
income last year was 1920, 229-sbout 81
on the capital. For maintenance of the
estate s217, 900 was paid, more than half
of which was for taxes. For the support
Of Girard College SCOPE was appro-
prlated, and $4,000 was reinvested.
Last year there were 1.127 boys IN the
college, and the average expenditure for
each pupil was 1872 Sc. Philadelphia has
no institution in which she should feel a
greater pride than this.

The four Newark. n. j., boys who,
having been bitten by dog supposed to
be mad, were taken to Paris and then
subjected TO M. Pasteur's method for
preventing hydrOphobia, are on their way
home. When they left Paris they were
IN good health and spirits, and what
ever fear of hydrophobia they had has
entirely disappeared.
II none OF the boys is ever attacked by
hydrophobia there will always remain a
doubt whether the dog which bit them
was mad. The dog was killed very soon
after it was discovered that it had bitten
several persons, and 1t has been gravely
questioned whether IL suffered from
rabies.
There are those who claim that persons
have suffered from hydrophobia who were
bitten by dogs which were not mad, excess
sive fear Of the disease having produced IL.
There may be something in this claim
and il there 10, at least two Of the chill
dreu might have been attacked by the dis
ease il they had not gone to Paris, be-
cause they were very much alarmed.
They heard the terrors OF hFdropbobia
talked about 80 much that they became
very nervous. Thew have now overcome
their fears and there is no danger from
that source. II any one OF them has the
bydrophobia, therefore, it will be because
he was bitten by dog suffering from the
rabies, and there will be a loss OF con6.
