best means of accomplishing this end. Later
on, he became identified with the Union Labor
party. and was prominently spoken OF for the
nomipatio for Representative from this coun-
" to the Legislature His aspirations in this
direction, however. were doomed to disappoint-
ment and more lucky aspirant lugeed of
the prize. Having failed TO 'smaterialize" in
these party affiliations he has come out in

What has the Democratic party done for the

Mr.. MscIntire had been superintendent OF the
school from its foundation, had spent his whole
life ia fitting the unfortunate deaf mutes 10 bat
tie with the world. He was dear to every deaf
mute In Indiana. As an instructor OF the deaf
he ranked second to none in his profession.
They put in his place an old dentist who knew
no more about the sign language than pig
kncws about Secretary Bayard's blunders in the
Cutting case with Mexico.

under the dentists administration, aud never
saw him address the pupils in the chapel for

iatendent of that institution shall be well skilled
in that class of education. This shows that
the Democratic party will openly volste the
law to give q politician comfortable place.
/, like the great bulk OF the Indiana mutes,
want the benevolent institutions taken out OF
politics. We think the board of trustees should
be composed Of one Republican, one Democrat
and one lady, who should be . muRwump.
The deaf mutes curl up their lin at the third
party. They think that the best way to pro
mote temperance is by high license and local
option. High license has decreased the number
of saloons in Minnesota from 1882 to 1897

The PrincasA of Wales.

In less than month the Princess OF
Wales will complete her 42d year. Her
royal highness remains one of the young
est looking women of her age in England,
despite married life that has not been
all sugar plums and coffee. During the
last year or two, however, the princess
has, rcgretahly enough, aged somewhat,
as those VIII, know her most intimately
and love her best have been forced to
admit. Time is tracing lines about her
kindly eyes, and her neck, that sure
chronicle of a woman's age, has its dis
agreeable little tale to tell; but these little
things detract nothing from the magnetic
charm of her presence, and it is satistac-
ton to know that she makes as good n
portrait as ever--a satisfaction, because
it is by means of her photographs that
the princess is principally known to the
common people.
The princess birthday will be cele-
trated by ball TO the Sandringham
tenants, whose ladies are already scour-
ing the country for appropriate dress in
which to meet her royal highness. Necks
and shoulders and 2rms are being nightly
inspected before the mirror in their
owners anxiety to know whether they
will be sufficiently presentable for barring
TO the critical gaze of royalty. A great
trade is being done b. the Norfolk
chemists in skin washes and blood mix
lures. A revival in this branch of their
business occurs about this time annually,
we believe. -London Letter.
