IN THE wHIRL OF POLITICS.

LIS nearing the fall election and evidently
Editor Lee of the Chronicle is going to take
a hand. In today's issue of his paper there
are several very pointed editorials First
he says:
"Pswiucket is paying dearly for ITS city
investments"
Mr. Lee knows full well That we have q
Republican city government But like
some other people he thinks it's incomPe-
tent
Then again he says:
"Whst the Republican party of this city
needs most at the present time 10 a leader,
not a Dictator
He then hits three or four Repub 'icans
when he says:
"The man ~ seeking the Office just nov
with so much visor that there isn't any
show whatever for the Office 20 turn about
in favor of the accepted aisRs.'
lie advises certain candidates 20 beware
when he ssys:
"The agility With which candidates f,r
the mayoralty come out Of the th!eket s
cqualed only by the celebrity With y wnirh
sob r minded citiz ns syow the intention 'c
take TO the woods
Here's shot at both White and TIepk-
"The members OF the city council who

Nolrhbors and Social Relations.

While it is pleasant TO have neighbors
with whom we are on familiar social re-
lations, the fact that we are ueighbors
merely is no reason why such relations
should exist Certainly no one has any
reason to be offended if "A ncighbor
chooses TO live in retirement, or does not
return obsequious calls. Too many Of
tho calls on new neighbors, which are
considered social duty in many dis.
tricts Of the country, are simply prying
erands TO sec if the parlor carpet is
genuine Brussels or RAG, or whether the
new neighbor keeps her hair in curl
papers at calling hours, or is good
manager or "A hopeless slattern, or some
thing else, which is no possible concern
Of the caller.-New York Tribune.

The most beautiful feature Of Yer
monts centennial celebration at Ben
nincton was the triumphal arch, mass
i've structure, at least thirty-fve feet
high. In its lofty turret was a throne
OF gold and national colors occupied by
Miss Lille Adams, Of Bennington, robed
as the Goddess Of Liberty. just below,
on the top Of the arch, were 1875 girls,
selected from the public schools, clad in
pure white and with flowing hair, who
sang patriotic songs accompanied by q
cornet, us the parade passed beneath the
archway. Below these the arm arches
were filled with maidens, bearing in
their hands banners emblazoncd in gold
and colors with the various coats OF
arms Of the states. At the banquet
many notable ladies were present, and
the tables were served in part by 800
young women in white.-Boston Wom-
ans Journal.

Coins Show That the Umbrella Is Old

On coins in the rock carvings of the
ancients the umbrella often shows its
familiar form. This goes TO prove that
Jonas Hanway did not invent the um-
brella, but he saw the value of the east
ern sunshade, and soon it became the
fashion TO carry this useful article.

cred, slender article which is regarded

covered that Mr.. Jones had not occu-
pied his own room since her depart

idence that Mr.. Jones had camped

"How could you?" she asked re-
proachfuIly. "You promised me that
YOU wouldn't once go out with the
boys, and you haven't slept single

ENGLAND and United States have
come to an agreement on the seals
fishery dispute. A treaty has been
mutually agreed upon and it will be
laid before the U. 8. Senate for rati-
fication. It is not made public as
yet. AS Secretary Blaine and Presi-
dent Harrison have approved it it can
be taken for G. anted that it contains
nothing derogatOry to the rights or
dignities of this country.

A Fleet Captured by cavalry.

From the Brooklyn Eagle.
During the reign of terror in France,
while long lines of victims were going
to the scaffold, the defenders of the
new republic were sending their
armies to protect their threatened
frontiers. The troops were accompa-
MED outside the gates OF Paris by
crowds of people all shouting the
Marseillaise." In 1894 Carnot, who
organized the military forces, had
500 900 men in the field, led to con-
tinnrd success by the republican gen.
erals-Pichegru Roche, Jourdsin and
others. No such armies had ever be
fore trodsen the soil of Europe; they
carried with them the spirit of the
revolution. The generals had the
alternative of victory or death; the
Convention would accept no excuse
or eXplanatiun-defea was death
Even winter did not check the pro-
gress of the French arms. Many
places surrendered without resistance
ON their approach. Pichegru led the
van into AIMS terdam, the inhabitants
going forth aud shouting: 1.-THE
French republic fOrever" AT that
time the Dutch fleet was ice-bound
in the Zuyder Zee, which is the har-
Dor OF Amsterdam. Piohegru sur
rounded 1t with his cavalry and COM
PEELED il to surrender. Thus history
brings before us the strange spectacle
of tn. French hussars galloping across
the Zuyder Zee and assailing the
tremendous but immovable ships OF
the Dutch, and of an entire feet being
captured by a charge of cavalry. The
result was that the Government of
the country collapsed and Holland
was fIrcibly allied to France 1795 }
But in 1918 Holland threw Oft the
yoke of France and recalled the
Stockholders, Prince William I. Of
Orange being proclaimed King of the
Netherlands Had the Dutch been
as fertile in expedients as Napoleon
they would have fOlled the French
cavalry at the Zuyder Zee When
that consummate tactician saw his
adversaries strongly posted on fro
zen lake, he brought his cannon to
bear on the ice with pluDgine fire.
They were at once drowned or dis.
comfited. A few well directed die
charges would have made the fleet
unapproachable by cavalry.

Jolly Bob" jackson Has an Unhap

His Wives.

"JoIly Bob" jackson Has an Unhap-
py Experience With Each Of
HIS Wives.
Robert Jackson, a jolly little Eng
Iishman, arrived in CenteIville, Il. l.,
with his wife from Hyde, England,
several years ago, and opened hotel
which he called the Charter Oak
house. He became popular and ev-
erybody called him Jolly Bob"
Mrs. Jackson tired OF America and
deserving Bob went back to England.
Bob was sad for awhile, but soon
found consolation in the smiles of
Hannah Jenkins, his pretty lS-yesr-
old servant girl, and before No. had
been gone two months he married
Hannah.
All went we'll until Jackson en-
gageC Peter Fletcher, of New York,
as bartender. One dark night Flet
cher chloroformed Bob, and stealing
all the available cash around the
house ran away with Hannah. This
misfortune started Bob on career or
reckless dissipation, which ended In
bankruptcy.
Just as he was on his last financial
legs, Amelia Parriclough, a pretty
English girl of 20 summers, came
along. Bob became smitten and de-
termined to reform. He proposed to
Amelia and was accepted. They got
married, and again Bob became pros
porous. But now, just as life appeared
TO Bob to be worth living. James
Parriclough has arrived from Eng
land with twin boys, claiming Anne
liza as his wife. The tickle girl, only
too glad to return to her first love,
has left Bob, not broken hearted this
time, but nearly wild with anger and
vowIng vengesnCe on the next woman
who enters his door.

Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1891-12-28

Mr. Niles report made prominent the sig
ni6cant fact that that banker had made no
report to him because, since his last return,
he had closed his doors, promising to pay at
some time 20 cents on the dollar to his de-
ceived depositors.
1t was believed that this palpable exposi-
tion of the danger of the private banking
system of the State would be quickly fol-
lowed at that session of the Legislature by
the passage of necessary laws governing it
and throwing some safeguard around deposit
tors. Auditor. General Niles drafted bill
to that effect, and made a personal fight in
the Legislature of 1887 for its passage. His
idea was to have a bank examiner,
with authority to obtain full state
ments of the business of these individual
banks, so that their true condition could be
known and made public in the interest of
the depositors and the revenues of the
State. The bill was defeated, and no friend
of it hesitated to allege that the interested
private banker had not been sitting idle
while the matter was pending. Since then
there have been many failures involving
loss of something like $4,000, 600 to deposit
ors, but there is nothing to prevent others
from springing up whenever it may suit the
fancy of men with ambition to become
"bankers" to start them.

EaSebali Notes,

THERE may be meeting of the new League
next week.
IT will be at least one year before big sala-
ries are completely downed.
PHILADELPHIA wants Mute Hoy for center
field in place of Delehanty.
JOHN CLARKsoN will begin to coach the
Harvard College team in January.
BALTIMORE claims to be strong in the field,
bpt may show up weak at the bat.
MANY of the assignments of Messrs.
Young and Phelps will be very unsatisfac-
tory.
1T would be quite a good stroke if we
could get Pitcher knell in exchange for
Mack.
CLARKsoN's three-year contract with Bos-
ton runs out next season. He draws $S 800
for his seasons work.
THE facs that players are now assigned
to clubs "oes to show that the magnates are
now having their inning.
THERE is already n prodigious kick against
50-cent ball in Philadelphia. In 1898 both
the clubs in that town were boycottcd until
they reduced the admission fee TO % cents.
ONE thing is settled. Mike Kelly will re-
main in Boston but Nash will captain the
team. Keily's contract calls for s. 900 Il year.
He viii receive a small per cent of all the
club makes over $50, 900.
BASEBALL patrons will this season have an
opportunity of Judging whether President
Won der Abe owes the success of the st.
Louis club to CAPTAIN Comislley, or to his
own business principles and enterprise.
The popular captain will also have to hustle
to prove that he is worthy of the reputa tion
he gained before he took charge of the Chi
ca-o Brotherhood Club. He has n strong
great record in the League race for the
Oeunant.
