The people of this country are fell

politics aud candidates for Office, but
all who have touch Of humanity,
and all who are thoroughly civilized
make due concessions and allowance
for differences of opinion and will
move the procession of common
brotherhood. Those who persist il
living in the darkness of prejudice
and in tolerance will be pushedsside
until their minds and hearts are
illuminated by the twilight dawn of
fraternity, when they will be well
coined in the procession moving on
for the good and triumph of our
people, city and country. The
most illibersl and prejudiced have
their calm and lucid intervals, and
being in the minority, they in good
time fall into line and are borne on

Of one mind concerning the greatest

Taae First Piece of Real Estate Mrs. Har-
risOn Ever Owned.
PHILADELPHIA, June GA dispatch
to The Press from Washington dated
June 6, says:
1t has been known for some time that
the presidents family will spend the
heated months of this summer at Cape
May, but an incident occurred to-day
which will be as much of a surprise to
the friends of the administration rs it
was to the inhabitants of the White
House themselves. Last summer Mrs.
Harrison spent some time with Mrs.
Mckee and her children as the guests of
Postmaster General Wanamaker in a
cottage at Cape May Point.
Mrs. Harrison enjoyed herself so
thoroughly during this brief visit to the
seaside that she was profuse in her ac-
acknowledgements of Mr.. Wanamaker's
hospitality. When the announcement
was recently made that Mrs. Harrison
and the rest of the family would not go
TO Deer Park this summer, but that they
intended to spend their vacation by the
seaside the postmaster general recalled
Mrs. Harrison's enjoyment on the Jersey
coast last summer.
The result of this was that to-day
Editor Mexican, of The Philadelphia
Ledger, accompanied by Postmaster
General Wanamaker, called upod Mrs.
Harrison at the White House. There
Mr.. Mexican, on behalf of number of
subscribers to the gift, whose names are
known, presented Mrs. Harrison with
the deed and keys to the cottage at Cape
May Point, where she enjoyed herself
last summer. Mrs. Harrison was over
come by surprise. She is, however,
greatly delighted with the gift, and is
especially proud because of the fact that
this is the first piece of real estate she
has ever owned in her own name.
The cottage is large old-fashioned
building containing about twenty
rooms, and it is probable that Mrs.
Harrison will visit Cape May Point
within week or two to inspect her new
possession and to make preparation for
residing there during the summer.
AS the impression grows that congress
will not adjourn till September, the
probability grown stronger that the pres
ident himself will be compelled to re-
main in Washington during most of the
hot weather. Thus it becomes doubly
pleasant to know that the ladies of the
family will be able to escape the heat of
a Washington summer

Soma CIepar Parrnts.

Miss Amelia B. Edwards said of her par
rot that 1t hated above all things a hideous
little Egyptian idol which she numbered
among her treasures. A niece of the late
Peter Cooper has parrot whose bette noir
Is the telephone. The minute any one takes
up the receiver the parrot begins to scold
and keeps up such clatter and chatter that
to hear a message is impossible. This par
rot is an accomplished bird and will run the
chromatic scale. 1T expects to be rewarded
with fig.
Once the fruit was not forthcoming, and
for three months thereafter neither was the
scale. Miss Hannah Stevenson, who was
for years Theodore Parker's amanuensis,
had a bird which could sing bars from sew
eral operas, and not unmusically. 1t makes
difference in a parrots tones by whom it

Cheap Chinese Pheasants.

The rate at which Mongolian pheasants
have increased in the Willamette valley
since few pairs were sent here by Judge
Denny about seven years ago is wonderful.
From these few pairs placed in Linn county
the birds have spread all over Marion,
Lane, Polk and Benton counties, till farm
ers complain of them and shoot them
despite the law protecting them.
Judge Whalley and friend, while
shooting ten dozen snipe near Brownsville,
say they saw literally thousands of pleas
ants, and found the nests of three in which
were from seventeen to twenty-one eggs
each. They hatch two or three broods in a
season, aud, being very swift of foot and
strong Of wing, cunning and hardy, they
will continue to increase, and, as there is a
demand for them from many states, the
probability Is that in n few years they will
have spread all over the Union.-Cor. San

To converse well 1t Is necessary that you
should have the art of discovering what
will interest the person with whom you
are talking and that you will know how to
drop the subject when it becomes tiresome,
and never to let a special fad of your own
be the one subject that you bring up.
Learn to be Gil things to all people. TO
avoid personalities or very decided opin-
Ions ON any subject. You don't want to
give TRADE against dishonesty to man
whose father died in states prison for
forging notes. You don't want to object
to the divorce laws when the man you are
talking to may have married a divorced
woman.
You don't want to talk about bleached
hair to woman whose hair is pronounced
ly yellow, nor to discuss how injurious is
rouge and powder to the woman who is
made up in a most decided manner In
your heart you may object to all these
things, but you are not giving expression
Just now to what you think; you are sim
ply making yourself pleasant to some one
whom you have met today and may never
meet again. Talk about Egyptian mum
mics or Frenchs5olitics; how orchids grow,
the last new play or the last new song but
use good English, speak as If you were in
terested, and then you will gain what you
want-a reputation of being a charming
woman socially. -Ladies' Home Journal.

Very few American novelists-how many
can the most convinced optimist COUNT
have occupied themselves with the simple
but supreme, motive of the love of pair
of lovers. To most of them evidently, so
restricted range of characters and so I'M
complicated situation seem jejune and
barren; though, suggestively enough, those
who have dealt with this motive and situa-
tion, and-like Miss Phelps on the one
hand and Miss Amelie Rives on the other
have even carried them into the realm of
the wildly fantastic, have nevertheless won
very noteworthy successes. Hence one is
inclined to ask: Does the pitch of perfec-
tion which the art of fiction has reached
with us really imply an absolute divorce
between literature and the love story9 If
not, why is the love story left to writers
who occupy themselves so little with liter
atureP Is literature the incarnation of
cleverness, of ingenuity, of minute inspec
ton Of the superhcies of things social, to
the exclusion of those phenomena which,
reconcile or not, are associated with the
very existence and endurance of life and
the worldY This is view which even
such painters of manners-such literary
sociologists-as Thac&eray and Balzac GER
tainly did not take.-Scribner's.

This people would favor a law by
the next Legislature requiring the
Nashville medical colleges to initiate
the Philadelphia idea and establish
a crematory for frying pauper corpses
after they have served the purposes
of the dissecting table. This will be
a decided improvement on floating
them down the river in barrels.
Then if belatcd Nashvillian fails
to put in on time for breakfast next
morning during the busy season
with the young doctors, the family
will understand that his absence
means an invitation to attend the

Two young women were sauntering
along Eighth street when they became

passed rapidly between them. One of the
girls Immediately started after him. She
didn't like to run, but his lang strides were
fast taking him beyond her reach.
"Mister" she called, but mister didn't
hear her.
Then she broke into that peculiar gait
which passes for running among her sex,
and catching him by the arm breathlessly
said:

And without waiting for permission she
went around in front of him to his other
side. Then she smiled.

did you want to go around mel"
why, you see, you went between my

ment, you know. So ran after you and
went around you, SO that it is now just as
il you didn't go between us,"-Philadel-

the party into line to support eau
Gus silver bill which is now up and
in effect is the Window bill, and has
shamefully cut off debate on this i'm
portant question, also all amend
ments not offered by the chairman of
the committee. Free coinage has
evidently q majority in the
House, but the Republicans fear the
president. The president is in ac-
cord with Window and both stand
in with Wall street. The bill is SO
well guarded that Wall street will
have complete control of the silver
certificates to be issued under it.
