A G0OD -OPPORTNNITY

IL President Harrison Is able 10 follow
out the line Of policy which he lays down
for himself in his inaugural address he
may not add much to his popularity
among the politicians, but he will provide
the people with an administration which
will be perfectly satisfactory. Whether
he will or not will depend upon his ability
To Withstand the tremendous pressure of
place hunters which will be brought to
bear upon him.
President Harrison has not yet been
weighed in the balance. He has before
him a thorny road to travel, and his
gauge has not yet been accurately taken.
There is no doubt that he has grown in
public estimation ever since his election.
He is evidently man who knows how
TO keep his own counsels. HIS conduct
has been marked by much circumspec
ton, which augurs well for the success Of
his career during the next four years.
His cabinet as a whole will be consid-
cred a disappointment. Only two OF the
eight members are men of national repu-
tallou. lucse are Dlaiuc anu Niuuom.
The latter is credited to Minnesota, al
though in reality he has lately been a res
ident of New York. He has previously
occupied the position of secretary Of the
treasury.
Gen. John w. Noble of St LOUIS was
a former schoolmate Of Harrison, is a law
yer with a state reputation and served
during the war IN an Iowa regiment, He
was United States attorney under Grants
administration and aided materially in
crushing out the great whisky ring. He
is no. a Western man in the sense that
Teller is, but is perhaps sufficiently West
ern to give a broadguaged, intelligent and
satisfactory administration OF the interior
department
John Wannamaker has by his W
efforts made a fortune in selling furnish
ing goods and wearing apparel in Phila-
delphia. His establishment is the largest
Of the kind in the country and perhaps in
the world. In addition he conducts a big
Sunday school with great eclat and en-
thusiasm. His cash contribution to the
campaign fund was $3.50, 900, and Chair
man Quay demanded his appointment.
There is no good reason, however, why a
business man Of his ability should not
successfully manage the post office depart
ment.
William Henry Harrison Miller was
President Harrison's law partner in lndi,
IA He is said to be a very unenthusi-
astic politician, and as a contributor to
campaign funds il not regarded as a daz-
zlIng success. His ability as a lawyer has
not yet been proclaimed from the house
tops, but the attorney generals Office mas
give him a chance to display himself.
Redheld Proctor was never heard IF
outside of Vermont until he led the Yer
mont delegation 10 the Chicago conven-
ton and cast the eight votes solidly for
Harrison. What his qualifications for
secretary Of war may be time must de-
velop.
Jerry Rusk, governor Of Wisconsin,
: acquired some fame in the recent riots.

Stomach Bitters. 1t goes right to the

and there is no hardness in its action.
But while it relieves constipation in com

associate evils-the gripping and abnor-
NAL disturbances produced by drastic pur-

thoroughness is unmarried by violence,
the chief characteristic of most laxatives,

that its regularity can be pe~rpetuated.
To weaken by drenching is to insure its

THE LITTLE FOLKS
Don't wsn.er Go to s,ee...

At night when sleep has ho-ered round the 1T
tie, snowy bed.
And borne away snowy wings tb, little, gel
den head,
Above the clouds and far away 20 that funcv
land of dreams
A merry land of fancy to infant minds, it
seems
A mother sits and watches, while her heart i.
filled with Joy,
AS she gazes on the features of her little sleep
ing boy.
Then oft from under covers chubby hand will
creep,
And a tiny voice say: "Muzzer don't wan er go
to s'eep."
A mothers lullaby is heard then sleep with
noiseless wings
Steals little one away once more, while watch
full mother sings.
Then comes a blissful silence; the mother does
not speak,
Though that tear is speaking for her as it glis-
tens on her cheek.
She takes the sleeping baby and folds him to
her breast
A mothers arms, so gentle, will not rob him of
his rest
And a prayer is sent up yonder, that God will
truthful keep
The lips that murmured "Muzzer, don wan'er
go to s'eep."

AMERICANS UNDER ARREST.
Two Men Charged with Circulating COuI
terfeit Money in Russia.

Two Men Charged with Circulating COun-
terfeit Money in Russia.
The Russian police at Odessa, Russia.
have arrested two men, said to be Ameri-
cans. charged with circulating large
amounts of the new and dangerous forged
25-ruble bills of the Bank of Russia. Two
packages, purporting to be bales of cotton
cloth, which arrived from New York a few
days before, were consigned to one of
these men, and on examination by the
custom officials they were found to contain
nearly 100000 rubles of these counterfeit
bills. To avert suspicion from themselves,
they circulated none of the stuff in Odessa.
but st. Petersburg and Moscow and other
large cities have been flooded with it for
three months. The counterfeit. which is
undoubtedly of American manufacture, is
so perfect that it passes from hand to hand
without question, and everywhere, except
at the counter of the Bank Of Russia, ap-
pears to answer every purpose Of the genu-
inc bills.

Emily speaks Her Mind.


Little Emily, five years old, is a
great favorite in spite of her incorrigi-
BILE freedom of expression. The other
day she had been on visit with her
mother at a friends, and had remained
to dinner. At the table she had
amused the family. with the possible
exception of its elderly and serious
head, by occasional remarks AS the
meal was drawing to an end the hostess
observed:
Emily, wouldn't you like to stay
here all the time and be our little
girl ?"
Emily looked up, pointed her finger
at the head of the family, and ex-
claimed, contemptuously:
"What and have him for father ?"

DEATH CLAIMS ROYALTY.

King Luis T., of Portugal, Stricken with
Par tIysis.
A Lisbon cablegram says: Luis l., King
of Portugal, is dead. The King passed
away quietly. He became unconscious some
time before he expired, and his life went
out almost without tremor. Paralysis was
the cause of his death. The Duke of Bra
ganza, who succeeds to the throne, will
assume the title of Carlos I.
King Luis I. was born Oct. 81 1888. He was
the son of the late Queen Maria H. and the late
mother was the first sovereign of the line of
Braganza to break through the custom, which
had prevailed for two centuries, of keeping
up alliances with the reigning houses OF
Spain. Her union with Prince Ferdi-
nand resulted in the beginning OF
the house of Braganza COburg, the
first sovereign of which was her son Pedro ",
at whose death, in 1861 Luis succeeded to tn g
throne. The young King took to wife Pia, the
youngest daughter of King Victor Emanuel of
Italy. They were married Oct. g. 1862, when
the bridegroom was "a Years old and the bride
only Is. From this union were born two sons,
the elder of whom, Prince Carlos, Duke of Bra

Carlos married q daughter of the Count de Paris,

Interior CenterS Have an Adequate sup
ply - Values of Trade.
R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade
says:
AS before, the money matt ct is the one point
of anxiety. Rates are higher, but perhaps ap-
prehension lis somewhat Iessened. Country
still calls for money largely, but reports from
nearly all interior centers of supply show that
the supply is considered ample for commercial
needs There is ffmness and increased de-
mand at Kansas City. and some 3stringency at
Cleveland, but with easier tendency. At
Milwaukee the market is brisk at per cent. ; at
Philadelphia customers ato RS, are supplied at at
continues large; bank clearings ex-
coed last years, railroad earnings are
encouraging, and eastbound shipments from
Chicago heavy At Chicago the dry goods
trade for the week falls below that of the CORE
spounding week last year, and receipts of wool
and lard fall off one-half, but coal receipts are
larger and receipts of grain and provisions show
O good increase. ST. Paul rejoices in the move
lnent of "Minnesotas largest crop, and railroad
reports indicate that Northwestern lines
choked with the enormous receipts from farms.
Cleveland notes activity in all lines. with small
sales of ore because unsold supplies are scarce.
The iron trade is still healthy. Tie wool
trade is still dull and while there is
larged discounts have caused more business
in knit goods, the demand for mems woolens is
strictly moderate. The cotton nlan1factnresi is
thriving and the trade in goods satisfactory.
Speculation for higher prices in wheat has not
been active since the last Government report,
and heavy Northwestern receipts, with scanty
exports, combine to depress prices, which have
fallen 215 cents for the week. Corn has declined
q quarter, and oats Is cents, while pork prod
ucts are little lower Coffee has yielded
quarter, and is weak. The coal business is bet
an eighth, and of refined quarter. The bust
ness failures number for the United States 1S2,
and for Canada A. For the corresponding week
last year the figures were 202 failures in the
United States and ~ Canada.
