senator van Wvck.

Van Wyck, of Nebraska, is the only
Senator whom his associates do not pre-
tend to understand. He is liable to get
up at any time and create a row, and the
records Of the present Congress will slow
that he has had as much of the fun Of
the Senate as any two men in it. Van
Wyck is nothing if not audacious. He
will attack any one who stands in his
way. Only a few days ago Edmunds
arose and attempted to squelch the fiery
Nebraskan with an avalanche of Sena-
torial precedents. But Van Wyck abso-
lutely refused to be squelched, and mere
ly replied in his most rasping tones:
'sNow I suppose We shall be treated to
the terrors Of the Supreme Court. The
Senate, Of course, laughed, and that, too,
at the expense of the great Edmmds.
Van Wvck is no respecter of persons.
When fully convinced that a certain
project is right and ought to prevail
there isn't anybody in the Senate who
can prevent his fighting that measure to
the bitter end. cold Van, " as the boys
call him, is against secret sessions. He
believes that the Senate was created for
the purpose of attending to a part of the
peoples business. Therefore, he argues,
the people are justly entitled to full
knowledge of all that is going on,-Wash-
ington Letter 10 the Boston Traveller.

4 Rash Editor Paws for a Hat.

The Cleveland Press permits a little
facetious diversion in its State news col
unln, which is conducted by a young
Norwalk newspaper man named Foster.
It is appropriate to say that he IS lln-
married and unengaged Last Tuesday
he published q paragraph to this effect:
ga Marion girl started her graduating
essay as follows: I am fairly wearied out
with the incessant prating of the lords
of creation on the duties and sphere of
woman. The paragraph closed with
the somewhat dangerous assertion that
the editor would bet a new spring hat
that the author of that discourse on
woman's sphere could not bake Il loaf of
bread. Saturday Mr.. Foster received
from Marion large box L: contained
sundry light loaves Of bread and cake,
marvelously toothsome An accompa-
nying affidavit bore the solemn oath of
the sweet girl graduate Cwho possesses
the pretty name OF May Williams) that
she had, unaided, baked the wheat bread
marked exhibit ~ the two specimens
of corn bread marked exhibit B." and
the chocolate cake exhibit c." The
notarv's seal of Office was affixed to the
affidavit, and it was settled beyond a
doubt in Mr.. Fosters mind that his rash
wager had been accepted. Ee therefore
went ont and lavished his weeks salary
on new spring hat. OF course he had
never seen Miss Williams

and more clever of the two. OF medium
height, with finely moulded features,
pure dark complexion, bright eyes and
well proportioned body, he was in looks
an ideal prince. He had none of the
manly qualities, however, that would en-
thuse his fellow countrymen. He was
very much like ais father in one respect,
that of cowardice. He invariably proved
himself as timid as a little girl, and could
be put to flight by the slightest indica.
ton of hostility While the. majority Of
the young men in his class played foot
ball and other games he would quietly
sneak into the playground and wait
around near the door for some kind
hearted fellow to come up and talk to
him. Of a vecy retiring disposition, he
was apt to seek refuge in flight if the
crowd approached him. His great de-
light was to walk up and down with some
other young man, building elaborate
castles in the air; few words Of praise
would elate him as highly as any harsh
ness would defect him. He was by na-
ture light-hearted and bright, but woful-
ly lacked application. He had at the
time as indefinite ideas about America as
most Frenchmen have, and he often
asked the Americans at the Lycee most
absurd questions about their country.
He was very grateful to the writer for
having protected him from the rough
ness Of his classmates on one or two oc-
casions, and in the plans he made for the
time that his family was to return to
power he invariably included the writer,
to whom he said he intended to give one
Of the highest positions in the land.
Louis laziness caused him a great deal
of trouble in his studies He invariably
put off his work until the last moment
possible, and then rushed through with
it carelessly. He frequently appearedin
the classroom without having looked at
his lessons He would take his seat a
short time before the professor arrived,
and try to make up for lost time. He
had faculty for committing Latin and
Greek to memory, and could get fair
idea Of what he had to recite in a few
minutes, but he forgot the lines as quick
ly almost as he learned them. On
Thursday mornings, which were devoted

rank in the different studies, after the
subject had been given out, Louis would
generally sit for an hour or more idly
looking at the paper before him, or max
ing rough and poor sketches over his
books. When he finally got down to
work, his sole idea appeared to be to
rush it through in any manner he
could. One day when the competition
was in Latin verse on a subject given out
by the professor, Louis only managed to
grind out one verse during the two and
a half hours allowed to work. The two
Americans in the class had rather the
faculty for grinding out machine
verses rapidly, and stood respectively
first and second in the class, and Louis
professed to warmly admire their
':talent." He assured the writer that
''when he became Emperor" he would
appoint him "Latin poet extraordinary
to the Court"

There are people who imagine that a

But how utterly untrue is such an opin-
ion is well shown by the racing CORE

who saw Archer's face at the Derby, and
thus describes it: IT was like that of 4

4 NEW STRIKE.
DR.. Tainage Wants Laborers for King Alcohol
to Quit Work.

The Rev. DR.. Talmage preached SER
mon last Sunday in the Brooklyn Taber-
nacle on the poverty among the working
classes caused by the use of intoxicating
liquors. Dr. Talmage introduced his
sermon by saying that there ought to be
more public fountains, where persons on
the street could get pure cold water.
'sIn Persia, said he, under the reign
of Darius Hystaspis, the people did not
prosper. They made money, but did
not keep it. What has become of the
billions and billions of dollars paid to
the working classes in this country2
Some Of it has gone for the necessities
of life, but most Of it has been wasted IN
foolish outlay, wasted at the gaming
table and in intoxicants. The most per-
sistent, most overpowering enemy Of the
working classes is intoxicating liquor.
It is the anarchist of the centuries, and
has boycotted, and is boycotting, the
body, mind and soul of American labor.
Within three hundred yards of the Sands
Street Methodist Church, Brooklyn,
there are fifty-for1r saloons, and another
is under preparation. Stand the saloons
of this country side by side, and it is
carefully estimated they would reach
from New York to Chicago. While the
ordinary strikes are ruinous, I proclaim
a universal strike against strong drink,
which, ii kept up, will be relief to the
working classes and the salvation OF the
American nation. I viii undertake to
say that there is not d healthy laborer in
the United States who, within the next
twenty years, if he will refuse all irtoN-
eating beverage and be saving. may not
become,a capitalist.
"When you deplete workingmanIs
physical energy yo!, deplete his capital.
The stimulated workman gives out be-
fore the unstimulated workman. A
brickmaker in England gives his experi-
ence in this matter among men In his
employ. He said: The beer drinker
who made the fewest bricks turned out
$50, 900, the ahstainers who made the
fewest bricks counted up 746, 900. The
difference in behalf Of the abstainer over
the indulger was $1,000 When the
Russians so to war a corporal passes
along the line and smells the breath of
each soldier. Il there be in his breath
taint of Intoxicating liquor the man is
sent back to the barracks. Why? He
cannot endure fatigue. AL our young
men know this. When they are prepar-
ing for an athletic event they abstain.
Our working people viii be wiser after
awhile, and the money they throw away
on hurtful indulgences they Will put into
cooperative associations and so become
capitalists. .
DR.. Talmage has arranged to go to the
Thousand Islys June &c with 600 of his
congregation. They will travel in parlor
and sleeping coaches and will be gone
three days.

\ Crcicnc OF Forty-four Years Ago.


Stories of the recent cyclone in Ohio
are coming N quite freely, but they do
not approach the marvellous stories of
the tornado that swept up the valley OF
the roaring Codorus, in York county, in
the spring Of 1912. After the storm we
speak of one farmer found that his well
had been pulled up by the roots and was
hanging on the limbs of q white oak tree
four miles away A cellar belonging %
one of his neighbors was split in two,
Que half Of it being blown through a
stone quarry and the other half turned
up endwise against haystack IN the
adjoining county. A flock Of geese were
completely stripped of their feathers by
the wind, and dried apple pie was
blown through the side of school house,
terrifying the teacher and scholars, be-
sides running large map Of the grass
hopper districts Of Kansas. A large
barn containing thirteen tons of hay was
lifted off its foundation and carried bodi-
ly six miles down the valley, where it
settled down so squarely that the doors
could be opened without prying them.
The wind blew the tails off six Durham
COWS, and Berkshire pig. weighing 200
pounds, was blown completely through
his skin, the hide remaining in stand
ing position and preserving an expression
of naturalness that deceived many Wis
itors. The boundary lines Of several
townships were bent all out Of shape, so
that they looked like crlrled hair mat
tress On i hot griddle, and the air was
blown so completely out of the valley
that people had to go up on the hills
when they wanted to breathe.-Philadel-
