Century Topics Of The TFme.I

One cannot but be impressed anew by the
fact that one of the most effective equipments
OF Lincoln for the performance of difficult du-
ties was quality which he shared with Wash
ington, and which each possessed TO a conspic-
uOus degree-the simple but tremendously
powerful quality of disinterestedness. 1t was
tact. e., intelligence added TO kindliness,
which helped make Washington a successful
leader; it was tact which helped Lincoln to
steer his Administration not only through the
perils Of war but between the rocks of selfish
ness and faeton-but without purity of pur-
pose, without absolute Observation-Disclosures, neither
could have done so well, so completely, the
work assigned
With the enormous and enormously increas-
ing populations, the seething social movements,
and the ever threatening political dangers of
the New World, there are not and never will
be times of perfect peace and quiet. Every
Administration, every Congress, State, commu-
nifty, every year, every day, has its emergency.
In our uncertain and ever-shifting scheme of
general and local Governments good men, bad
men, half-good and half-bad men, are Contin-
ually pushing or being pushed to the front as
leaders. Now and again an INSCRIPTIONS
schemer attans notable official or unofficial
eminence; and his disgraceful and pestilerous
success" tends towards the imitation of his
methods on the part of men of easy consciences.
The example of Washington, the centennial of
whose Inauguration is so near at hand, and of
Lincoln, who was with us only yesterday, and
whose pure and devoted life is now being told
for the first time-there will never be mo-
ment when the example of these men will
cease to be among the most saving forces of the
Nation.

ADMIRAL CHANDLER.
A Long and MeritOrIous Service AaOat.

Rear-Admiral Ralph Chandler, U. S. Navy,
commanding the squadron in Asiatic waters,

He was born Aug 3, 1923. at Poughkeepsie,
n. Y, and was appointed a Midshipman in the
Navy Sept. q, I545. After year of instruc-
ton at the Naval School at the PHILADELPHIA
Navy Yard, he was ordered TO the frigate In
dependence. flagship of the Pacific fleet, and
during the Mexican war took part in the capt
ure and occupation of Mazatlan.
Having been promoted to Passed Midship-
man in October, 1851, he spent year at the
Annapolis Naval Academy, and in 1853 Joined
the slOOp-Cf-war st. Louis in the Mediterra-
nean under Capt. Ingraham. and was on board
in 1884 when Ingraham trained his guns on

Smyrna, and forced the release of the Hunga-
riau patriot Martin KOzts.
From 1856 to 1860 he was on duty with the
Coast Survey, and while commanding the
schooner Crawford in 1857, was caught in a
continuous series of gales off Hatteras that
lasted q days. For bringing the vessel safely
to port he was officially thanked by letter

had fNcibly taken the rebel Commissioners
Mason and Sidell, and their Secretary, Eustis,
from the British steamer Trent not long before.
After taking part in the fight at SewelI's
Point, in Hampton Roads, and the recapture of
Norfolk, the San JaeintO was ordered to the
Gulf Bioekading Squadron, and while passing
through the Bahama Channel lost the screw
from her propeller shaft. Lieut.. Chandler re-
covered IL so skillfully as to elicit letter of
thanks from the Secretary of the Navy, and to
this day the description and drawings of the
manner in which the work was done form
part OF the instructions in seamanship at the
Naval Academy.
From the Fall Of 1862 to the Spring of 1864
be commanded the steamer Huntsville on the
Gulf blockade, and then went to the North
Atlantic feet to command the Maumee, one of
the dOuble-onders specially built for fighting

Fisher, in 1864; the second Commandment of the
same place, and its gallant capture Jan. Is,

Immediately after the fall Of Richmond and
the surrender Of Gen. Lee he was selected by
Admiral Porter to command the monitor San
canon, and detailed TO clear the James River
10 Richmond OF the torpedoes and distractions
placed there by the rebes-a dangerous duty
which was successfully performed.
From lS66 10 1870 he commanded vessels on
special service on the Atlantic coast, and then

at the Brooklyn Navy-Yard.

For three years was almost crippled with an

THE vICE-PRESIDENT.
Continued from I'd paeel
occasion of the counting of the Electoral votes,

occasion of the counting of the Electoral votes,
was conspicuous by reason of its emptiness.
Mrs. Harrison, Mr.. and Mrs. Mckee, Mr.
Russell Harrison and wife, Mrs. Lord and DR..
Scott, Mrs. Harrisons father, occupied the
other front seat Each of the ladies bore a
huge bunch of fOwers-Mrs. Harrison, lilies Of
the valley; Mrs. Mckee, bon silene roses; Mrs.
Russell Harrison, jacqueminot roses, and Mrs.
Lord, some sort of purple blossoms.
At II o'clock, Capt. Bassett time but in real
ity more than 20 minutes past, the President
elect arrived. Directly after President Cleve-
land, who had entered arm-in-arm with SEN
ator Cockrell some time before followed by
every member of his Cabinet, the Vice-Presi-
dent-elect came in, leaning on the arm of SEN
ator Hoar and was Immediately sworn in by
President pro TEN. Ingalls,. Mr.. ingalls, then
made brief farewell speech and declared the
Senate adjourned sine die, yielding his post of
honor In the graceful way for which he is no.
ted to the new ViCe-Presdent. After an ear
nest prayer by the Chaplain, Mr.. Morton re-
convened the Senate in special session, in
pursuance of the message of President Cleye-
land, the last official act as President of the
United States, of THE Man of Destiny" Mr..
Morton made brief and most appropriate adj
dress, when a roll of the Senate was called, and
the newly elected Senators were sworn in.
The new Senate and other officials present
now filed out, and onto the large platform
address. 1t had been suggested that in case
the rain did not cease that the custom of APP
pearing in public on this stand should be varied
but Gen. Harrison dissented, and declared that
he would not disappoint the people who had
been standing patiently in the pouring rain for
hours to see and hear him.
LoOKER-oN's GOSSIP.
Mr.. Blaine's face looked almost black with
pallor; but indeed the weather affected every
body 80 that dropping heads could be seen on
all sides. Miss Morton, daughter of the new
Vice-President, was taken with chill on the
platform, and had to be helped to the Vice
Presidents room, where she was made COM
Portable in this most CHEEKY room of the great
building.
Mr.. Cleveland looks pale and carewOrn," re-
marked one in the gallery He doesn't look
as jolly by long way as he used to do"
Well" said another, 81 guess very few peo-
pie would look or feel specially jolly if they
were obliged to attend their own funeral"
Mrs Harrison was dressed as plainly as posi-
bic in cloth gown, made perfectly plain, of
girls de perle, with habit waist
Mrs. Mckee wore a NEST becoming costume
of the new shade of green known as Cythere
green, with a dash of gray in it, with white
faille vest and side plaitiugs in the skirt.
Mrs Russell Harrison wore a gown Of deep,
rich red. trimmed in black Astrakan fur.
Mrs. Haiford, in blue broadcIath, made di-

A Thrifty Old ParSOn.
fAadnta Constitutional

Old Parson Blank, who lives less than 100
miles from here, will never go to the poorhouse
if there is any virtue in economy. Some time
ago he invited friend TO visit his fish pond
and try his luck. The friend accepted, and
spent an afternoon fishing with the parson.
When they started home the parson pressed
the other to take his string of fish, but the
guest replied that he had caught enough. and
was satisfied with the result of his sport
All right" said the parson. "Let me see
that big fish is worth quarter, and these five
are 20 cents apiece, and this little one is 10
cents-$1.35 cents for the lot"
The visiting fisherman looked at the parson
moment. He read business in the finty face.
and without word forked over the cash.
Great Scott" he said, when he told his
wife about it, I" if had accepted the old mans
string, too, it would have left me fat broke"
