Why He Called Attention to the "Misdi-
rected Energy" of the Department. of
State.
Brother Blaine is experiencing the
difficulty of directing his boom from a
point outside of politics. He can not
always get his orders around in time.
If there is any one thing in which the
organs were justified in s%upposing that
Brother Blaine's position was fixed it
was in the matter of hostility to all for
eign Powers whatsoever. He had him
self given the keynote in afierce speech
on the fishery dispute, which relates to
very obscure points in international
law, and they supposed that they were
quite safe in abusing the Administra-
ton for its caution in getting up a
fight with Mexico.
But Brother Blaine, from his point
of observation at Bar Harbor, quickly
perceived the danger of this position.
If Cleveland and Bayard were encour-
aged or allowed to go to war, what
would become of Blaine's own jingo
policy and the one only lingo party of
be stopped, and accordingly, there was
d Suuucu CllduSO VI 1lOhU. NIL. Lilly d
Blaine man from Illinois, who had
voted for the resolutions of instruc-
ton in the Foreign Committee, OBJ
jected to their Consideration in the
House, declaring that Mexico was being
unreasonably pushed, and the princi-
pal Blaine organ, the New York
Tribune, opened an attack on the ''mis-
directed energy of the Department of
State, whose position in the Cutting
case is said to be all wrong.
1t is true that small politicians and
party organs arc accustomed to sudden
changes. When the State Department
appeared slow, it was the organs duty
to abuse it; when it showed itself
active, it was equally to be abused.
But in the s~uddenness of the change re-
garding the Mexican affair it is impos-
sible to doubt the guiding hand of the
celebrated lingo chieftain. Among all
his experimental issues he has always
chung to the American Eagle, and that
anybody else should assume the cham
pionship of that proud bird he regards
as an infringement on his copyright.
The minor Blaine organs have been a
little slow in taking the cue, but we
may expect them to tumble into line
very soon. A disturbance with Mexico
in advance of 1888 would leave Brother
Blaine and his lingo party to hopeless
desuetude. philadelphia Times.

Popular Errors Regarding the Food Which
Should be Given to Patients.
1t is a mistake, not seldom mischiev-
Gus in the consequences, to assume.
That there is any nutriment in beef-tea
made from extracts. There is none
whatever. 2. That gelatine is nutritious.
1t will not keep a cat alive. Beef-tea
and gelatine, however, possess a certain
reparative power, we know not what.
3. That an egg is equal to a pound of
meat, and that every sick person a
eat them. Many, especially those of
ervou or bilious temperament, not
eat them and to such, eggs are injur-
ious. 4. That because milk is an i'm
portant article of food it must be forced
upon a patient. Food that a person can
not endure will o cure. 5. That ar
row-root is nutritious. 1t is simply
starch and water, useful as a restorative,
quickly prepared. 6. That cheese is in
furious in all cases. 1t is, as a rule, con-
tradicted, being usually indigestible /;
| but it is concentrated nutriment and a
waste repairer, and is often craved. Z.
That the cravings of a patient are whims
and should be denied. The stomach
often needs, Graves for and digests ar
ticles not laid down in any dietary. Such
are, for example, fruit, pickle, jams,
cake, ham or bacon with fat, cheese,
butter and milk. 8. That an intlexlble
diet may be marked out which shall APP
ply to every case. Choice of a given
list of articles allowable in a given case
must be decided by the opinion of the
stomach. The stomach is right, aid
theory wrong. and the Judgment admits
no appeal. A Diet which would keep a
healthy mar healthy might kill a sick
man; and a diet sufficient to sustain a
sick man would not keep a well man
alive. Increased quantity of food. espe-
cially of liquids. does not mea increased

Strive to give the food in as concen.

INSANE HOTEL GUESTS.

Ridiculous Capers Cut by a DementedM Man
in a Philadelphia Hostelry.
The proprietor of of the large
hotels on Broad street, who has been
in the business many years, in speaking
upon the subject of insane guests, said
that of course they were always tran
silent guests, and were got rid of as
soon as their ailment was discovered.
''But," said he, ''they will slip in on the
most experienced clerks. They often
cut up ridiculous capers after they have
been at the hotel a short time. They
ARE too sly to show themselves at first.
/ remember upon n occasion, in an
other city, a very old gentleman regis
tered at a hotel and remained for a
week, and seemed to be engaged in
business which occupied a great deal of
his time. One day the clerks were
amazed and mystifed at the
appearance early in the morning
of a score of men, girls and boys with a
wonderful assortment of ours. For a
time there was such a yelping and snort
ing about the hotel corridors that pande-
:monium seemed to have emptied itself
there. The motley crowd of dog ped
dlers came to sell their dogs to MIR. r.
1t was discovered that the man had a
notion that if he could find a dog W it'll
q certain white mark upon its forehead
he could dispose of it to the fanciers
at a fabulous price. He had been
through the by-ways of the city engag-
ing urchins and such other people as he
could induce to engage in the hunt to
bring such a cur to the hotel on a GER
tain day, if found. We cleared the mob
out and turned the man over to the
police. who found his friends and sent
him home. He had been insane on the
dog question for years. You might
find cases enough as queer as this one
to fill a book, for the insane guest is
known to all the big hotels. "-Philadel-

The Appointment of Daniel Magone as
Collector of Customs for the Port of
New York.
President Cleveland has appointed
Daniel Magone, of Ogdensburgh, N.
Y, to be Collector of Customs for the
port of New York, in place of Mr..
Hedden, whose resignation had been
received by the President. The APP
pointment is one that in the highest
degree reflects credit upon the
Presidents motives and earnest
ness in carrying out the policy
which he SO distinctly and I'M
~equivocably announced as one of the
guiding principles of his Administra-
President has not been wholly satisfied
Mr.. Hedden. The most successful Col
and experience. Many of the ques-
tions coming before the Collector for
decision are purely legal, and the
judicial experience, as the Springfield
| Republican points out, is especially
valuable because it accustoms a man
to sift evidence, discern truth and act
| with promptitude, well defined and in
telligent purpose, and the courage of
| his reasons Such a man is the new
appointee, Daniel Magone. He is a
lawyer of marked and admirable legal
attainments, a scholar of deep research,
a man of great force of character and
| resoluteness, and a firm believer in the
reform policy of President Cleveland.
| He is known to be the personal choice
of the President, and 10 one who
knows the qualities of the man will
doubt for a moment that he will sue
cessfully conduct the great administra-
tive Office, to take charge of which he
gives up a large and lucrative practice
in St Lawrence County. MI. Magone
was for many years the trusted friend
of and co-worker with Samuel j. Til
den. When Governor Tilden deter
mined to prosecute the canal ring, in
1875, he appointed Mr.. Magone one of
the commissioners, the other members
being John Bigelow, of Orange; Alex
ander E. Orr, of Brooklyn, and
John D. Van Buren,, Jr., of
New York. Mr. Magone was the only
lawyer on the commission, and
the successful termination of
its difficult work was largely due to the
legal acumen, tenacity of purpose and
keen instinct shown by him. While
always an earnest and consistent Demo-
crat, and for the past fifteen years
prominent in the councils of the party,
he has never held any other office than
that mentioned. He was a member of
the Democratic State Committee for a
number of years, and was it's chairman
during the memorable Tilden and
Hendricks campaign of 1876.
The appointment of Mr.. Magone is a
further proof of the President sinceri-
ty of purpose in carrying out the re-
form policy to which his Administra-
ton stands pledged. 1t is proof, also,
that the President is determined that
the great office of Collector of the Port
shall be administered IN purely bust
ness principles and in accordance with
the existing laws.-Albany Argms-

Charles A. Vogeler Company Of Baltimore,
