ing that change of cue vote would tie
the result and give Reed the casting
vote, induced Farmer" Funston to
change his vote from nay to aye. Two
silver democrats, had, however, not

made the result stand 119 to 120. so
the gold bugs were once more whipped.

An Explanation.

The National Non-Partisan w. c.
7. u, through Mrs. Ellen J. Phinney,
has furnished the Associated Press
with the following statement:
HEADQUARTERS Non PARTISAN Ma
TIoNAL W. c. 7. u, CLEVELAND, G.,
June 1S.-The organization Of a Nom
Partisan Noman's Christian Temper
ance Union in New York city, a week
ago, has been heralded through the
press with accompanying statements
altogether unfounded, as we'll as con-
trary to the spirit and aims of the new
organization. 1t ought to be we'll un-
derstood by thus time that the princi
pie of prohibition is firmly imbedcd in
the temperance faith of both branches
of the W. c. 7. u, and that our diff
ference on this point is altogether a diff
ference of means to accomplish that
end. The partisan W. c. T. U. be-
lieves it is necessary to the enforce
ment of prohibition that party be built
up having this question for Its main is
sue, while the non-partisans believe
that prohibition will be sooner secured
and better maintained if it is not link
ed with the varying fortunes Of any
political party, but aims to support and
defend the united temperance sentl-
ment in all parties. In line with this
belief it is unquestionably true that the
non-partisan women lay more stress up
on various lines of education and Evan
gelistic work, believing such work un-
derlies all permanent temperance re-
form, ard that without it advanced
legislation would be a failure. We
wish We might be judged oy what We
say rather than by what We leave un
said, but better still, by our work rath-
er than our words.

The Package Sill Broaden.d.

The house committee on the ju dici-
airy, after having under consideration
for four meetings the senate "origir al
package bill, has decided to report to
the house in its stead substitute
agreed on by the committee this morn
ing with one dissenting voice. 1t is
broader in scope than the senate bill,
inasmuch as its provisions apply to all
articles of interstate commerce, where
as the senate bill only applies to intox-
icating liquors. The substitute is as
follows:
"That whenever any article of CON-
merce is imported into any state from
any other state, territory, or foreign
nation and there held or offered for sale,
the same shall then be subject to the
laws Of such state; provided that no
discrimination shall be made by any
state in favor OF its citizens against
those of other states in respect to the
sale of any article Of commerce. nor in
favor Of its own products against those
of like character produced in other
states; nor shall the transportation of
commerce through any state be OBJ
structed except In the necessary en-
forcement of the health laws of such
state"
Representative Reed Of Iowa will
prepare the report on tbs bill and Re-
preventative Adam, who voted against
the bill, will probably make minority
report.

How true it is, that one half the
world doesn't know how the other half
lives. Take for instance the woman
who plays the orguinette on the street
corner. An old sun bonnet is pulled
we'll down over her shruuken features
for the feminine instinct which shuns
a revelation of unlovellness fingers all
through life, and outlasts hunger and
humiliation. And the tune she plays
is "Home, Sweet Home" From time
to time the tune halts where notes have
been worn away by use, and the men,
ory-laden melody seems to be broken
now and then by a sob. Crouchcd
down behind the instrument, with her
face almost buried in the calico apron
across her knees, she doesn't seem to
even hear the jingle of the coin that is
dropped in the cup before her. Alone
in the street, without the slightest
prospect of friendly nod or a kindly
greeting she plays-"Home, Sweet
Home" One asks himself how she
lives, and when he figures it out that
fifty people during the day would be
likely to give her coins, averaging not
less than ten cents each, he concludes
that at five dollars per diem she ought
to have a good seven-room house in a
good neighborhood with hot and cold
water and pie for dinner whenever she
wants it.-New York Sun.

At Washington.

Mr.. Blaine, according to some of
his indiscreet friends, has made up his
mind to 90 in and fight Speaker Reed
to the death. He does not relish the
rapidity with which the speaker has
mounted to the top of the ladder of the
party leadership. The first fight be-
tween the rivals is to be over the fed
eral elt ction bill, which Mr.. Reed is
particularly anxious to see passed, and
which he has persuaded the House
caucus to endorse. Mr.. Blaine will
bring all the influence he can
tc bear in order to defeat the bill, so
that the fate of the bill will show
which of them Is in control of his par
ty in the House, and give an idea Of
the victor in the conflict.
Commissioner Raum told friend
here that he was very much disguised
with his office, and that he was serious
contemplating resigning and retiring

The civil service investigating COM
mittee has made its report, and queer
document it is. It puts liberal coat
of white-wash on Commissioners
Thompson and Roosevelt, and finds
poor frien6less Lyman ''guilty as in

Lyman's guilt, but the question which
is puzzling the people is why wasn't
Roosevelt equally guilty In making the
deal. Lyman's brother-in-law, Camp
bell, has resigned, and if Lyman does
not promptly follow suit it is believed.

DO BE A GENTLEMAN.


No matter what sterling worth younH
man may possess, if he be not versed III
the little manners and attentions which
distinguish the well-bred man from the
poor, he will not succeed. Good manners
are passport everywhere, and young men
who wish to succeed will pay the utmost
attention to them. Especial care should
be bestowed ON table etiquette, as nothing
stamps a man so much as his manner
when eating, and nothing is so distressing
to q person of refinement as to be obliged
to eat at the same table with an ll-bred
person. The following hints, if carefully
observed and practiced, will enable any
young man to mingle with his fellows
without giving offense. And take heed,
young men, these little things are Of more
importance to the girls than all your rough
good qualities.
Do not drink with the spoon in your
cup. Place it in the saucer. Nothing is
more vulgar than this.
Donot drink your soup or coffee audibly.
In fact, especial care should be observed
in eating silently, for nothing is more dis
gushing than noisy chewing and drinking,
except eating with the mouth open.
Do not, under any circumstances, use
the fingers to push food on your fork
or spoon.
Do not lean your arms on the table.
Do keep your elbows close to your side,
and don't flourish them In the air. In
raising food to the lips the lower part Of
the arm only must be used.
Do be careful as to the way you hold
your knife and fork, for nothing will give
you more awkward and inelegant ap-
pearance than improper handling of these
important articles. The knife should be
held by the handle only. Do not
touch the blade with your finger. The fork
should not be held with the whole hand
except when cutting. In raising the food
to the lips hold the fork at the end of the
handle, prongs upward, between the first
finger and the thumb, the handle resting
on the second finger. If you hold it
otherwise you are obliged to duck your
head and stick out your elbow in order to
eat.
Never walk out of room before lady.
Open the door, then stand aside and allow
her to precede you. In this way you fol-
low her out and close the door for her
easily. Nothing is more rude and ill-bred
than violation of this rule.
Do take Of your hat the instant you
come in the house.
DO pay attention to the foregoing rules
and believe that good manners are i'm.
pOrtant.

The free coinage of silver Is ques-
ton which we could not settle if we

Give the Deity . Chance.

Conspicuous among the notices on tho
walls of the room in which the National
WOman's Christian Temperance Union is
meeting in Chicago is large inscription
reading: Goods Curse Upon High Ii
cense." Whether this is an invocation or
a malcdiction cannot be easily discerne0,
says the New York Tribune, but it will
occur to many religious people that in
either event 1t is particularly irrelevant.
The habit that so many estimable people
have of committing the Deity to their
side of controversy as though they were
empowered to speak for Him and to de-
mand or threaten in His name Is about as
offensive as habit could be. Whatever
this useful and important association Of
women may think about the Deity's views
of high license, they are in no sense
charged with the responsibility Of decla-
ring them, and il any expression Of the
Divine will Is to be offered it would be
better to let it come directly,

A False Friend.

Form the Wichita News Beacon.
Senator Ingalls, is secretly working
against the free coinage of silver bill,
although the record shows that he voted
for that measure in the senate. The
following dispatch from Washington,
showing how Senator ingalls, compelled
Farmer Funston to vote against the i'm
mediate consideration of the measure,
is significant:
The resolution, which was in effect
that the speaker had 10 reyht to refer
the bill to the committee, was carried
after motion to table, made by Mr..
Cannon, had been voted down and the
segublicans who are fighting in the in
terest Of Wall street got badly ratified.
Mr.. Mckinley, in desperate effort to
save the day for the gold bugs, chang
ed his vote before the result was an
nounced and then made motion to re-
consider. Mr.. Mills moved to lay that
motion on the table, and pending that
Mr.. Mckinley moved to adjourn.
At this juncturc Senator Ingalls,,
clad in light suit and with big red
rose in the lapel Of his coat, made his
appearance on the floor. The republi-
cans made him acquainted with the sit
uation and s'Farmer" Funston's defect
ion, whereupon the senator, who had
posed as the champion of free coinage,

to Senators Allison and Hale on the

come from the secretary three or four
times, and is evidently correct state

note just here that the bill was very
