women would propose" going back to tn,
old subject, do You think the men woult
be- 60 nngenerous as to laugh at them or Il

MR. DEPEW ILLUSTRATES WITH A STORY.
'Oh, no; they would never do that. ii
dis eyes CLEANED raguishly. "That re.
minds me- Of friend of mine-I never tell
stories, but PH tell this one. He was
ltcturing in some smill town cut West
In the midst of his talk number of young
girls in the back part CT the house began
TO giggle and laugh; 50 ose of the men,
who was conducting the meeting, arose
and requested them TO please keep better
order In the back part of the room. A
young man who was sitting By the girls
got up and said, Please excuse the girls,
they couldn't help laughing, cause a hor-
net has ju,t stung me- Now if the hcrnet
hid stung the girls the men would not
Rave laughed, but would have applied the
remedies usual in such cases"
Somehow, when went ont, and espe-
cislly IS bad never been stung by hor-
net, wondered what the rtmeiies were
for such wounds.
Mrs. Frank Leslie was II sting her elbow
on deck, which is thoroughly business
like in every respect, when l entered her
private Office. l said:
Mrs. Leslie, we are going 20 discuss

to have your opin o on the tubiecs"
Yes; was jus: reading lot OF clip

subjects, and here is ona," liftirg up ems

"Sto1ld women propose?r
"Oa!'' cha exclaimed, and then she
laughed. What an idea! Brigham Yolpg

slowly. The mole womanly a woman is,
the Seeter she is lie: the men keep that

Don't you think a woman has as much
right as man to woo?" l urged
MRS. LESLIE DIsCRIMINATEs.
Yes" with smile, "ald she can do it
With her eyes and with the thOusni little

"But don't you think if women Guild

II don't think he would" she smiled.
Then think how wretched a woman
would be. She would always fear that he
wanted to refuse but did net dare"
We both laughed at this visw of the
question, and then said again:
80 you do not believe in a woman
having that right?"
"NG; let her BIZ as womaDly as she can"
she said firmly. ''If had my life to live

Harrison's Desire to Make His Adminis-
tratiOn Strong and just.

WASHINGTON, December 2Sd.-During the holt
day recess several of the Republican Senators
will call upon General Harrison, at his invita-
ton, to discuss with him, not the personnel of
his Cabinet. but the policy of the Republican
party for the next four years. 1t is very evil
vent to Washington politicians that Harrison
while he may act, when in the White House,
entirely upon his personal judgment in making
appointments DESTROYS of consulting with
the elders of his party before committing him
self to any line of political action and before he
undertakes the task of writing his inaugural
address.
learn from one of General Harrison's in
innate friends that he is experiencing more
difficulty in selecting Southern man TO repre-
sent that section in his Cabinet than anything
else. He appreciates fully the necessity of max
ing such appointments in the South as Will give
the Southern people confidence in his desire
to do absolute and impartial Justice to that
people. He wishes to give the Federal patron
age IN the Southern States to Republicans, but
desires, above all things, to be assured that his
appointments shall be men of character and
standing in Southern communities, whose
names Will guarantee a faithful enforce
ment of the laws, without regard to
race Prejudice or social inequality. 1t
is probable that the success or failure of Gen.
pend upon the spirit in which his appointments
are received. He will endeavor to do his best
that he may make no mistakes and his purpose
is, am informed, to use the most excellent
Republican material he can find to fill Federal
positions in the South. He will expect in re-
turn, in that event, that the Southern DEM
ocrats shall meet him ct least halfway aud
give him credit for the sincerely of his inten-
tions in making his appointments for that Sec
ton. If they do not chance to do so, it will not
swerve the Pres dent-elect from the perform
ance OF what he regards to be his duty.
