IT'S suggested that the agricultural
member of the new cabinet will probably
be taken from New York city. This
will perhaps help out the balancing
of interests, as there will be no factional
elements about a plain, practical horny
handed tiller of the soil on Fifth avenue
or Wall street.

IT SEEMS to be new discovery in
some quarters that BOB INGERsoLL
chews tobacco. The fact only concerns
other people so far as it is related to
his lack Of the religious element. Does
tobacco lead to infdelity, or infdelity
lead to tobacco? That is the conun-
duem that is helping out the rather
musty marriage-a-failure question.
There was time when BOB used
liquors to occasional excess. AS side
incident, it might be inquired what
caused him to reform.

A BOOK has recently been published
giving ali account of the women who
have taken out patents as inventors in
this country from 1779 to 1888. There
have been $500 patents issued to them,
generally relating to apparel and house
hold economy. They show that women
have kept reasonably to the front in a
line not supposed to be quite adapted to
theirgenius. One man, who is generous
enough to approve their efforts in this
line, displays the disposition of his sex
in the statement that not one of the
$500 female inventions reveals new
principle.

MAsSACHJ- SETS is not much of an

apples, and good many of them.
Every landowner has an orchard. The
apples for which there was no salts

habit OF making into elders. Now in
the progress of temperance reform it is
insisted that cider must go, or, rather, be
converted into vinegar. They are told
that they can get cent or two more a
gallon for the vinegar than for the cider.
The farmers laugh at the idea of flood
ing the state with vinegar, and will

Indiana idea has heretofore gained such
pre-eminence in state politics that Mr.
Hay doubtlessly thought that it could be
used with impunity in insulting DEM
ocratic minority, and making for him
self cheap political capital.
The morning session had scarcely
opened when Mr.. Hay introduced the
following resolution:
Resolved, That we have heard with
satisfaction of the action of the national
house of representatives upon the bills
for the admission of certain territories
and congratulate our disenfranchised
neighbors of Dakota upon the fact that

So the Hanke amendment was car,
ried. In taking the vote. Representa-.
tive Ives declined to vote because it waa
a Republican affair; Representative
Haven voted for the amendment be,
cause he still considered himself to be
gentleman; Representative CrOssfeld
voted against the amendment because
he desired to see the resolution killed
also.
AS soon as the amendment was
passed, Hay tried to withdraw the reso-
luton, but Hanke objected, and it was
passed as amended.
Had Mr.. Hay introduced the resolu
ton without speech which was CORY
with the bloody shirt, he might have
secured its passage without trouble.
But his remarks were Incorporate, and
calculated (whether by design or not to
anger every Democrat present. The
stand taken by Messrs. Fleming, Stew
ems, KeyeS and Dunn brought the house
to realization Of the fact that it was
being worked for buncom3e, and it re-
sented it in great fashion. AS matter
of history, Mr.. hay had probably for
gotten that the first opposition to the
admission of Dakota came from a Re-
publican congress, in which there was q
Republican majority, and that the oppO-
sition was led by Eugene Hale, OF
Maine, and was successful in IFS pur-

In a recent talk on the subject of anna

peared with great success in the ''Comi-
cal Countess" in which she showed
splendid skill with the foils. Mrs. Blood
good said in answer to quotation as to
the effect of amateur acting Oh morals:
'.My observation is that amateur act
ing does not affect morals at all. Ger
tainly the effect is not a detrimental one,
or wouldn't do any acting. The idea
that young people are brought into un-
usual relations at a time when their
emotional nature is aroused, and this
condition of affairs abounds in peculiar
temptations, know from actual expert
ence is absurd. The fact of the matter
is, there is no romance about the ANA
teur stage at ali. And amateur acting
is downright hard work, and so far from
the young people being brought into
tender relations of dangerous tend
ency, rather the contrary is the case.
Conscientious amateur acting requires
so much thought, such undivided atten-
ton, such continuous hard work, and is
| SO great a strain on the player, both

no time for anything but what is practi-

The Theater. the foremost theatrical
journal in this country, calls attention
to the fact that in most foreign cOun-
tries actors, singers and playwrights are
Justly appreciated. The serious portion
of them are acknowledged leaders in
the world of thought, and education and
press and public have given them the
most prominent kind of consideration.
They have for years been pictured and
eulogiZed in the most substantial man
ner, and the history of the English
stage particularly constitutes one of the
most valuable parts of our standard lit
erature. In this country the best OF
these arts have but little enduraing rec
ognition up to this time, but there now
seems to have come all appreciative
epoch, and the magazines and Weeklies
are frequently extravagant in their en-
cravings of portraits of theatrical peO-
pie and in their illustration of plays.

there was cry OF surprise from the
