Mr. Webb Hayes, son of ex-President
Hayes, IS said to be an applicant for the
Berlin mission. The people generally didn't
know, or they had forgotten, that Mr..
Hayes had son Of that name, but possibly
he will get the appointment. President
Harrison and ex-President Hayes are said
TO De firm friends, and, besides, in appoint
ing the young man, the President would be
following up his idea of making heredity
paramount 10 fitness in filling the offices.

The Birmingham Age-HeraLd thinks that
the majority should rule 10 this country,
and that the electoral college is a useless
piece Of machinery, but at the same time it
is afraid that the efforts Of President Wall
OF the Florida Senate to arouse a sweeping
sentiment in favor Of electng presidents by
popular vote will be futile. Perhaps the
Age-Heroid is right. 1t has been noticed
that neither congressman nor the people
take kindly 70 constitutional amend
nents. They seem TO be satisfied with the
constitution as it is, though, no doubt, it
could he improved in some respects.

like the 5OOth, and yet no doubt they are

An Unfounded Story.

There does not appear to be any founda-
| ton for the statement so widely published
in northern and western papers that Mr..
Randall is 50 much in favor at the white
house that his recommendations of appi-
cants for Office have more weight than
those of almost any republican. 1t is stated
as fact that Mr.. Randall hasn't called
upon the President but twice-once to pay
his respects, and once to present petition
relating to the local government of the
District of Columbia.
There seems to be good reason for think
ing, however, that the republican leaders
are anxious to cultivate very close friend
ship with Mr.. Randall, for the reason that
upon certain economic questions he may
hold the balance of power in
the present congress. The republican
majority in the House is very slender one.
Even when the representatives. from the new
| states are elected, and those of the con-
tested election cases in which the republi-
cans feel certain that the democrats will be
unseated are settled, the majority will
hardly be more than a dozen. 1t is APP
parent, therefore, that the republicans
would feel much more comfortable if they
| could rely upon Mr.. Randall to assist them
when measures relating to the tariff we're
under consideration.
While it is true that Mr.. Randall so far
as the tariff is concerned, is more nearly in
harmony with the republicans than with
his own party, he is not fully in accord
with them, and is not likely to strain
point to assist them should they need assist
ance. 1t is quite certain that he would not
enter into any understanding with them,
however willing they might be to make 1T
worth his while TO do so. Whatever else
may be said of Mr.. Randall, he is not n

The Philadelphia NeOs says: There is
more domestic happiness in the south than
ia the north. There were more divorces
applied for in Chicago alone in one year
than by the entire native population OF
all the southern states east of the Missis-
sippi river. Thousands Of women in the
north seek rest in the suicides grave from
unhappiness in their homes" 1t is not often
that a northern newspaper makes an adj
mission such as this, and when it does it
ought to feel good deal better.

Strange as it may seem, Mormon elders
have made their appearance in Middle
Georgia. Several Of them went from Han
cock county into Greene, an adjoining
county, last week and began their work of
making proselytes. The people of Greene
were indignant. A few gentlemen went to
the elders, and one of them spoke as fol-
lows: Gentlemen, we do not wish to seem
harsh but our people are not ready for the
views you hold, and the doctrines you teach,
and 1t is our request that, leaving us alone,
you seek other pastures" That was very
nicely said, but it didn't seem to have ang
effect upon the elders-at least it did not
cause them to move on. 1t is said that
thereupon some very plain English was
used, and, perhaps, tar and feathers were
referred to casually, and then the elders
moved

Attacking Senator Colouitt.

The Philadelphia Press makes the follow
ing rather remarkable statement about
Senator Colquitt: "The wabblings of Sen
ator Colquitt, of Georgia, are causing the
democracy Of his state some amazement,
not to say CONSERVATION. He has taken an
active part in the distribution of Offices in
his state under the present administration,
openly favoring one republican and oppos-
ing another, visiting the President and the
departments, and bringing all the infu-
ences he can to bear in the selection of ap-
pointees.n The Press further states that
Senator Colqu tt is also "incurring the
grave danger of being read out Of the DEM
ocratic party"
1t would be interesting to know the
source of the Press information. 1t is news
in Georgia that the senator is in danger of
being read out of the Democratic party.
He has about the stror gest grip on his party
Of any public man in this state. 1t is safe
to say that no attempt will be made to read
him out of it, and if there should be it
would be by minority so small that it
would meet with nothing but contempt.
We do not know whether or not the SEN
ator mas taken sides with either of the re-
publican factions in this state that are
scrambling for the spoils. Those who say
they are in a position to speak for him deny
that he has. The senator himself has said
nothing in reply to the statements that he
has endeavored to influence the President
with respect to the Georgia appointments.
1t is probable, however, that he has rot
made himself particularly active ia behalf
of one faction or the other. 1t is hardly
reasonable that the President would accept
advice from democratic senator. He has
declined to receive advice even from SEN
ators of his own party.
But if Senator Colqutt should favor the
President with some suggestions relative to
the Georgia appointments, Georgia demo-
Gratis would have no reason to complain
They would know that he favored the
best men, and it is to the interest of every
body that the Offices, if they are to be filled
by republicans, shall be filed by those best
qualified for them. What doe, the Press
mean, anyhow, by attacking the senator?

INTERESTING EXPERIMENTS
Prof. Hartigan, of the West Virginia
University, has lately performed two
interesting experiments in vivisec-
ton. He has removed a portion of Il
dogs skull, exposing the brain, and
replaced the bone with close-fitting
glass window, so to speak, Through
which the action of the brain may be
studied while the dog is asleep and
awake. He has also cut into dogs
stomach q la DIR. WILDER, and inserted
a fistula tube, which may be corked
and uncorked at his pleasure, and by
means of which food may be with
drawn and scientifically examined at
various stages of digestion. IF the
tube is left uncorked the dog will
drink gallons of water without
quenching his thirst, owing to the
water escaping through the tube.

The superintendent of the Wash
ington Monument proposes to close
the stairway leading to the top OF
the structure TO visitors and restrict
tourists to the elevator. The pur-
pose is to arrest the vandalism that
threatens to disfigure the interior Of
the monument beyond redemption
Even now the stones that can be
reached from the stairways are GOV.
cred with names, doggerel verses
and even vile suggestive drawings
from the pencils of visitors. The
memorial stones are in many places
badly defaced by chipping. The
vast size of the interior makes close
watching impossible.

TWICE DEAD.-Tuesday last, 10
Philadelphia, Comrade Stephen Kel-
ly, of Co. +. 9lst Pennsylvania iDfan-
try regiment, died at his residence.
The popularity Of this case is that ac-
cording to the records in the War De-
partment, at Washington, this man
has been dead for more than twenty.
FIVE years, his name, company and
regiment appearing on one Of the
headstones in the National Cemetery
at this place. Mr.. Kelly has been here
with every encampment OF the q. a.
r. and always visits lis supposed lest
ing place, on one oftbese visits having
his photograph taken standing on the
grave. While Supt. Wilson had charge
of the Cemetery he made an effort 70
have the error corrected by the De-
partment, but nothing was ever done.
The theory OF the error IS that, having
left their knapsacks on Round-TAp 10
make charge to the wheatfield, some
one took possession of Kelly's, ana
the stencil plate he carried was found
on the body ofthe soldier who got bis
knapsack. The marked canteen
theory loses force with the assurance
made that was the last part Of the ae'
coutrement to be laid aside by sol.
der. The deceased was member OF
Post 8, G. A. r., of Philadelphia, ana
his last will directs that Organization
to take charge Of his body for inter
ment. Letters received here state
that his last wish was to be buried al
Gettysburg, where his name already
appears, On Sunday afternoon the
burial services were performed In Posi-
8's Hall, and the body placed In inc
