was most sensible thing for Mr..
BLAINE to do, because it will go long
way towards relieving him of the sus-
picion of jingoism; besides, it was a
policy that, with all his astuteness, Mr..
BLAINE could not have improved upon.
That our Samoan policy will not be
agreeable to- BISMARCK is well enough
understood; and when Germany insists
upon establishing protectorate over
the Samoan islands, Mr.. BLAINE will
have an opportunity to show whether
he has more pluck than BAYARD or
not.

LOVES PHILOSOPHY.

The fountains mingle with the river,
And the rivers with the ocean:
The winds of heaven mix forever
With sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single:
All things, by law divine,
In one another's being mingle-
Why not with thine?
See the mountains kiss high heaven,
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister flower would be forgiven
If it disdained its brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeams kiss the sea,
What are all these kissings worth,
If thou kiss not me?

THE noted scientist who recently died
in Paris at the age of one hundred and
three was eighteen years of age when
NAPOLEON was first consul, and a
boy old enough to recall the bloody
scenes of the revolution. Only nine
teen men of like years would reach
back to the events that Easter will COM
memorate next Sunday. He lived
through century that was worth more
to civilization and progress than any in
the records Of time. His extreme age
was proba bly, largely due to his avoid
ance of any share in its stirring events.
1mmured in his laboratory, he hardly
knew what the world was doing. He
took no interest in the siege of Paris by
the Germans until a shell dropped
among valued plants in the public
garden, when he sent a protest and
asked to have the war stopped. 1t may
be well for those engaged in protracted
scientific investigations to live one hun
dred years, but for the average, com
mon people there is no such occasion.

BERLIN, April 16.-Both the Berliner

his exposure of wholesale bribery in the
election of Senator Payne. The Tag

Senator Payne. Mr.. Halstead had been

expressed that the place will be given

LER, who was acquitted Of murder and

justification than may be had in any
case where an immoral woman kills the
man who shares her infamy. The occa-
sion seems to warrant the disgust.

Charging Illegal Pension Fees.
CHICAGO. April 16.-John S. Grant.Ea
young colored man, who combines the
profession of pension attorney with
that OF waiter, now wishes that he had
never made an incursion into the field
of law. He was arrested Sunday on
requisition from the United States dis
trict attorney at Detroit on the charge
of exacting illegal pension attorneys
fees. He had secured a pension of
$4,000 for Charles Davis, an inmate of
the poor house at Pontiac, Mich, at the
time and kept 81, 900 for his own share.
AS the fee allowed by law is only S25,
his charge was considered somewhat
excessive. He was this morning taken
to Detroit by deputy marshal.

AN ARMY officer, familiar with Okla
homa, is credited with the statement
that among its indigenous productions
that will furnish employment and OBJ
trusive fellowship with the settlers, are
skunks and bedbugs. OF the former
he says there are countless millions, and
they will be found strong, pungent con-
testants for the country. The Indians
have been in the habit of killing them
and selling their pelts by the wagon
load. The soil is full of the bedbugs,
and they are thousand times worse
than the sand tieas. In most of the ter
rit DRY the drought prevents crops more
than half the time. But these little in
cidents will not discourage even the
politicians from going there.

MOsT of those who come from over
Che water to swell the census soon
catch the American spirit, but one Of
the exceptions was that young Nor
Wegian i'll New York, the other day,
who committed suicide when the first
papers were served IN a breach of
promise suit. He did not catch on to
the idea that such suits are the little
pleasantries that float about the con-
nubial relation and add to the interest
of American life. To commit suicide
in consequence is absurd, and in bad
form, as the current phrase is. There
might be excuse if it were the only es-
cape from repair of the breach.
