1t Is possible that the Senate'S bout
with the President may lead to consider
ing nominations with open DOORS Ii SO
We may hope that the doors once opened
may never ba closed again, except per-
hans where treaties are under DISCUSSION
and even in such cases it Is questionable
whether there is anything gained by a
supposed secrecy which is certain sooner
or later to b. violated.
In the matter Of Executive nominations,
there is not a single good reason why the
doors shall not be open. II is said that in
such cssra charges are often made which
cannot be SUSTAINED, and that publicity
would lure worthy and Innocent men
The more reGson why the charges shall be
made in tho wholesome far Of public
opinion. hit were known that the charges
and the discussion we're to be made public,
Senator'S would be mole careful in dealing
With that sort Il comhustiblo material

Mary y Gentleman

1t was excellent advice | saw late
ly given to your G ladies urging them
to marry only gentlemen or not mar
ry at all. The word was used in its
broadest sense. 1t did not have ref
erence to those who have fine raj
ment and white hands and the yen-
eeribg of city polish, merely to enti-
tie them to the distinction, but to
those possessed of true, manly and
noble qualities, however hard their
hands and suDbrowned their faces.
A true gentleman is generous and un-
selfish. He regards another's hap
piness and welfare as well as his own.
You will see the trait running all
through all his actions. A man
sho Is a bear at home among bis
sisters and discourteoust to his moth
er, Is just the man TO avoid when
you come to the great question
which is to be answered by Yes or
no. A man may be eyer so rustic
in his early surroundings if he
is a true gentleman he will not
bring blush to your cheek in any
ociety by his absurd behavior
There Is an instructive politehess in
herent in such a character, which
everywhere commands respect and
makes its owner pass for what he Is
one of, natures noblemen. Do
not despair, girls; there are such
men still In the world. You need
not die old maids. - Women at Work.

The Indestruciibility of Gold.

Gold may be said to be everlasting,
indestructible. The pure acids have
no effect upon it. Air and water are
alike prohibited from working its
destruction while to baser metals
they bring decay, to gold they are
inocuaus. Bury it through long
ages, and when The rude tool OF the
eAcavator again brings it to light.
while everything around it has re-
turned to dust from which it sprang
while the delicate form it adorned
bas become a powder SO inpalpable
as to be inappreciable; while the
strong bone of the mighty warrior
crumbies as you gaze upon it; while
the trusty sword lies a mass of shaIe
rust, the delicate tracerv in gold
which adorned it, or the finely
wrought tiara which encircled the
lofty brow ofthe fair damsel, is there
in its pristine beauty, perfect as
when it left the workman's hands
and became the JOY of her feeting
moments. "Yes, days, years, centu-
ries have rolled by; mighty empires
have risen and fallen; dynasties
that dreamed their power to be ever
lasting have passed away; armies
have marched, conquered and be-
come nerveless with decrepid old
age; cities teeming with population
and commerce have become the
dwelling place of the owl and the
bat; the very pyramids themselves,
raised in the pride of power and des-
tined TO oe forever, have crumbled
and are crumbIing, and yet the thin
filament of gold has stood unchang-

Jokers Ourwifted.

A party of smart young students
in certain town in Kentucky con-
ceived the brilliant idea last winter
Of hazing their new professor. 1t
was decided after much de.iberation
to invite him coon-hunting, and at-
ter leading him about in the woods
until completely bewilcered to aban-
don him. and let him fad his way
back 10 the settlement or remain in
the woods ali night. Now, as the
professor was a stranger and weigh
ed over two hundred pounds, this
seemed too funny for anything, and
many hearty laugh did they have
over il. The invitation was given
and accepted; the appointed night
came. cold and clear with several
feet of snow on the grnund. Every
thing moved along as arranged. The
professor seemed guileless and un-
suspecting, but beneath his puffy
eye-lids now and then cleaned an
amusing twinkle. They had plod-
ded through the snow for several
hours, and the leader was about to
give the signal to diSperse when the
professor sank to the ground with a
groan Of agony.
"Oh, ohw he moaned, lone of
nv attacks again For mercy's sake,
boys, get me a place Of shelter or
Im a dead man"
Talk about scared boys. Here
they were five miles from the near
est house aud an apparently dying
man on their hands. Something
must be done. and quickly, too. A
litter was hastily improvised, and
with coats for cushions. the profess
scr was gently laid thereon and
homeward they started, sorry set
of practical jokers, taking their turn
at carrying their massive preceptor.
Not a sound was heard but the
means of the professor and the
grunts of the students, who were
strsining every nerve to keep from
iostling the patient After what
seemed a score of miles the weary,
bedraggled fellows carefully lowered
their burden to snatch few min
utes' rest before entering the village,
which was in a stones throw, when
what was their surprise to see the
professor leisurely arise from his
couch rnd coolly OBJ
serve:
Much obliged, boys very much
obliged! But one word. The next
time | wanted to play practical jokes
| would select an invalid for a sub
lect, and with a chuckle he strode
of,
And those boys sat there in the
snow and raved until they melted a
place about them of half an acre.

sam smalrs vigorous Talk.

CHIcAGo. Feb, 25.-ln his sermon
at Fargell to-day Sam Small had
this to say abourthe annual Charity
bail which Was beld this evening
and was a great success: Il venture
to say that there was no more hilar-
ious time in he'll than when the
word charity was yoked up with the
word balls. Great laughter and APP
plause.l If understand the Scrip
lures properly, | can't fad anything
connecting charity with dancehouse
or ball. When q charity ball was
being organized at Atlanta last year
all the clergy turned the shot and
shell of their Gospel batteries right
against the camp of those who were
0o.siug the balls. There was only
one minister there who had the bra
zon ehrontely TO endorse the ball,
aud he was found in brothel in
Cincinnati within three months and
has since been expelled from the
ministry. If you yoke yourself
with anything the devil has got to
do with, he'll get you in a mud hole
sure. | know there is diversity of
opinion on this subject. Some think
they can mollify aud soften such
worldly practices by hitching them
up 20 the Gospel. Why not then
hold a charity faro bank? Or run
a missionary lottery scheme, or run
a Gospel theatre to help out the
church ? People in this city hold
ing their millions i'll the church
pews get up teh-cent fairs to keep
the Gospel running. Any true man
should not be IN any peddling pica-
yune business in the name of God !"
Describing hell, Mr., Small said
THE blasphemer who empties out
his torrent of oaths in public and
private will get hell below where
no sound will be heard but the eter-
nal reverberations of oaths. Every
time he opens his mouth the toads
aud Lizards of he'll will fall from it.
The gam bier with mis- cards and dice
and checks and roulette wheel and
the gambler in the products of the
Almighty will have hell where he
will hear the eternal flip Of the
cards, the rattle of the dice and the
r'll of the wheels gambling
without stakes or gain. The church
members who throng the theatre
when they should be at the prayer
meeting will see in hell the great
panorama where there will be no
scene shifting, at which they will
stare till blindness would he a
relief and death welcome. Those
who are dancing away the hours of
worship ia the German can go to
hell If they choose and find the same.
There they can leap for ever on the
red crested waves ia the delirium of
never ending dance. The cruel
hearted who are making home a
daily hell 10 their wives and families |
will find a hell just as cruel as the !
one Of their own creation. Drunk |
ards, who are live guzzling fluids |
typicnl of the rivers of hell, hssotting
your brains and running your bodies,
is it your idea of hell to lie among
the scorching cinders aud Lap for=
ever over the molten lava from its I
burning hills.
