The Cleveland Cabinet.

President Cleveland's Cabinet, ii
will probably be the verdict Of his
tory, has been mistake. The best
appointment in it was that of which
the least was expected-the appoint
ment of Secretary Manning. The
worst one was that which was univer-
sally commended by men of all parties
when it was made-that of Secretary
Garland. The latter has hung like q
milestone about the neck of the Ad-
ministration. The Cabinet. as a whole,
has turned out neither to have been &
great one nor a popular one with the
country, though that important feat
ure, the Treasury, has always been
ably cared for in it. Fate, rather thar
bad judgment, is responsible for this,
for Mr.. Bayard's failure and Mr.. Gar
lands fall would not have been prophe.

How Free-Trade Theories Work Whom
Put in Actual Practice.
Free trade would promote the inter-
ests of labor-so the tariff destruc-
tionists declare.
Two firms in Cincinnati were manu-
featuring regalia of certain kind
this being an important but not the
only branch of their business-and in
the process much hand-painting was
required. The persons who did this
part of the work were well paid and
other employees also received good
wages. Suddenly, about six months
ago, one of the firms notified all
employees making regalia that their
services were no longer needed. In
short time the other firm became
painfully aware of a rapid decline in
its regalia trade, and it was not long
until orders ceased altogether. An
investigation unraveled what was at
first an amazing mystery. The fact
was disclosed that the rival firm had
struck bargain with manufacture
ing establishment in Europe and was
importing regalia, by favor OF Con-
gress in having left these articles on
the free list, and supplying the entire
demand at low rates owing to the cheap
labor abroad.
Here is a plain illustration of the
effect of the theory of Cleveland,

tice. Has free trade benefited the re-

CHARGES OF BRIBERY.
i1ne of the Most Transparent of Many
Vicious Mugwump Lies.

1ne of the Most Transparent of Many
Vicious Mugwump Lies.
The mugwump journals of the coun-
try are assuaging their grief over the
defeat of Cleveland by steadily reiter-
ating the charge that the election of
General Harrison was accomplished
by .open and wholesale" bribery,
especially in Indiana and New York.
This cry is SO constant as to lead to
the suspicion that it is free-trade
trick to lift the responsibility for the
Democratic defeat off the free traders
shoulders, where it properly belongs.
The simple fact is that there never was
a campaign in which the "open and
Wholesale bribery prsscticed by the
Democratic party was more "open or
Wholesale than it was in the last;
there never was a campaign in which
robbery of the ballot was more open
or wholesale than it was in the last in
those Southern States which made the
candidate, the platform and the cam
paign of the Democracy of 1888; and
who knows it better than the thousand
and one editorial liars who did their
dirtiest to besmirch the Republican
candidate during the campaign.
The corruption fund OF the Demo-
cratic party ran up into the millions.
The offices were in that party's hands.
and there never was a campaign in
which every office-holder was more
deeply bled than the last. From
Cleveland's $4,000 check, which was
duplicated by every member OF his
Cabinet save Garland, down to the
scrub women and janitors about the
Government buildings, every Office
holder contributed to the fund, and II
he were net willing to do so threats OF

In the sunaower State, of Kansas,

icitly, the odor Of old bourbon pre-
walls on the quiet and the liquor OF
Gambrinus is contr.band and abun-
dant. where the women control the
elections and the men play second
violin generally, there is growing
tendency on the part of the feminine
population to become both execution

accepted as true that the average To-

ABOUT MUSICAL SAND.
A Deposit Recently Discovered at stud
land Bay. Dorsetshire.

land Bay. Dorsetshire.
The existence of the phenomenon of
musical sand has recently been discov-
cred ut StudIand Bay. Dorsetshire. and
reported npon by Mr.. Carus-Wilson.
FIGS. 10 the Bournemouth Society of
Natural Science. Studiand Bay mu-
steal sand is composed chiefly of quartz
grains. more or less rounded, and TO
some extent polished. but many are
angular. At various points between
the Ferry and Stuuland there are
patches of sounding sand which have
been separated from the finer grains
both by wind and wave action. When
the foot is drawn over the surface,
these sands give out Il musical note.
In walking over it in the ordinary
manner tingling sensation is felt, as
of vibrations communicated to the
body. Some of the layers are far more
musical when the surface is rubbed
than when il is struck. The coarsesc
grains are found to emit She deepest
note. This musical sand il to be dis
tinguished from the bedded sands,
which. in the same locality, are sim
ply sonorous, and not musical, as also
from the rock known as phonOlite, or
'clinkstOne." In a "singing-beach,"
the musical notes are produced by the
friction of the separate grains, and not
as in the phonolites from the solid
rock II may he remembered that
about thirty-fve years ago Hugh
Miller drew attention to his discovery
of musical sand at the Bay of Laig, in
the romantic Isle of Eigg. Hugh Mil
Ter described the Eigg musical sand as
being derived from the disintegration
of the beds of oolitic sandstone. To
the ordinary observer. musical sand
presents the same appearance as any
other white sand, the musical and the
mute being frequently indistinguish-
able when placed side by side on the
sea beach; but under the microscope
it is seen that the grains of the mu-
steal sand have had their angles
rubbed off by natural attritiOn. their
surfaces having become beautifully
polished; that they are more or less
uniform in size, and that. unlike other
sands. they are perfectly clean and
free from fine particles or any
coating of adherent substances which
produce the friction and consequently
the sounds.-Leisure Hour.

The SPECIROSCOPE.
An Instrument which Has Done More FOO
Science Than the Telescope.


Science Than the Telescope.
1t has been proposed that a tele-
scope be made by the Clarks who con-
structed the great Lick refractor. and
that the instrument shall have an OBJ
ject glass about three times as large in
diameter, We suppose, as that of the
Lick telescope. The person who
makes this suggestion thinks that the
money necessary could easily be OBJ
tanned, and If the manufacture of so
gigantic an object glass were matter
of money alone, doubtless he is right.
But this is not the case. 1t is work
of extreme difficulty To make perfect
lenses of large size, and, we believe,
several lenses were made for the Lick
instrument before an acceptable one
was obtained. There are difficulties in
the grinding of the lenses. also, after
the glass has been formed; and. when
all had been done To perfection, it is
open to grave doubt that any tower
could be constructed stable and in
flexible enough To render the use OF a
telescope like the one proposed prac-
ticable.
There are objections, also. based on
the nature of light. and having to do
with spherical alteration and other
matters, which render it highly inn
probable that the most skillful tele-
scope makers could contrive
methods for overcoming them.
Money will do many things. but
in science there il a limit to its
power just as there is natural limit
to what opticians can accomplish. If,
for example. our whole surplus rev.
enue should be spent in an endeavor
to settle usually the truth of the
atomic theory by constructing a mi
crossope that should render atoms or
even molecules visible. all would be-
of no avail. for light itself is too
coarse an instrument to render sue
cess possible.
The time may, perhaps, come when
such a telescope as Is proposed may
be constructed, but from Galileo to
the Clarks is probably not a longer
distance than from the Clarks TO the
man who shall make an instrument
of such value. Perhaps more could
be done for scientific purposes by the
construction of improved spectroscopes
than by the building of a telescope,
however large and however closely it
might approach TO perfection. With
the most powerful telescope little
more could be done than the resolu-
ton of nebul;e and ne discovery OF
new star clusters and discre:e stars.

are paid very irregularly, and serious
trouble on that account occurs not in

as menials for their superiors in the
hope of promotion. which depends on
caprice. They are generally dissipated,
idle fellows. given to opium smoking
in spite of the regulations which for

are hardly distinguishable from the
privates. The soldiers are employed
for various duties other than military
and are badly armed. The Govern
ment has procured costly weapons,
such as repeating rifles, but these are
not kept in good order, and the waste

Government has impaired the spirit of
