OUR PROSPEROUS YEAR.

There is every reason to believe
that this year is as peaceful and
prosperous as any that has ever
passed over the world, and yet it
is full of all sorts of disasters and
of rumors that excite the fears of
the timid. There is war in Chila
and India, and threatend war III
Peru and Africa. There is
financial collapse in Argentia and
another one imminent in Portugal.
There are floods along the Rio
Grande and the lower Mississippi
and destructive fires in Michigan,
Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
Add to these the rumors Of i'm
pending strife in Europe and the
rapid expectation of gold from this
country which threatens a mon
etary for us when the time comes
to move the crops, and it will be
seen that for peaceful and pros
porous world we are certainly hav
ing trouble enough. Back of all
these actual disasters and
rumors of war that attract the
attention Of men, there is looming
up always larger and darker from
year to year the black cloud of
socialism, and the strife between
capital and labor. Never was this
cloud more portentious than now,
and never perhaps was the light
ming of its strikes shown more
vindictively. In every portion of
the world these are going on, and
what deserves special note is that
they are manifesting themselves
more in the countries Of high
wages like the United States and
Australia than anywhere else.
No man can forsee the outcome Of
all these things, which if they
were duly considered would pre-
sage a future doubtful enough.
Fortunately mankind never pays
much attention to anything except
its present and pressing business.
We know that the things that con-
Germ us individually are going we'll
and so we call this a prosperous
year, not caring to estimate the
ruin and the fears elsewhere. 1t
is quite possible, however, that
this prosperous year Of ours may
be written down by the historian
of the future as a year of anxiety
and unrest ont of which the world
emerged into truly peaceful and
prosperous epoch only after long
strife and labor, and with great
bitterness, confusion and suffering.

No man is a bankrupt who meets
all of his obligations, and that is
what she United States treasury
is doing. When a single national
obligation of any sort goes to pro-
test then the people will be ready
to believe that deficit exists, but
such a thing will never happen
while we have a republican admin
istration.

The president and party have
arrived at home in Washington
after having travelled over terri

hands with more people than any
living man in America during the
same space of time.

Whitney is her hacker. She became inter
ested in Mrs. Russell and her theories last
winter in New York, opened her drawing
room and had in a dozen to hear those new
doctrines of grace. People began to ask,
nay beg, for invitations. Then Mrs. Whit
ney conceived the idea oil having a supple
mentary season of Delsarte at Newport, to
accommodate those who were unable to
hear Mrs. Russell in town.
Well. Henrietta came over with her ex-
traordinary gowns, her curious draperies,
her quaint ornaments and her marvellous
bang. She came, saw aud conquered. Came
to be not only listened to, but received
socially. Came to be lunched by Mrs.
Stuyvesant Fish, TO be petted by Mrs. Whit
ney, to be approved of by Mrs. Astor and
to be chummy with Sallie Hargous. The
choicest outings from the smart set meet
twice a week to writhe, wriggle, bend and
sway; to relax and d~eoompose-by the way,
why couldn't Delsarts have selected a word
that wouldn't smack quite so strongly of an
over-ripe corpse. These pupils form spiral
curves and make corkscrew curves of them
selves and at the end of each lecture fifty,
fair, four hundred foppers fall at the feet
of their instructor. For not only does Mrs.
Russell teach these ladies how to bow, smile,
walk and sit down, but how to fall grace
fully and lie, a limp and 1.-THE mass of

There was some demurring at first. "Who

what is she coming to teach US for? Why
should she tell US how to walkY' But after
the swells found out that Mrs. Russell had
lectured the crowned heads of Europe or
the English nobility, which is all the same,
and after Mrs. Aston had approached her
at the end of one of her lectut es and said,
My dear Mrs. Russell. you have opened a
new world to me" everything WAS smooth
sailing ior this audacious little woman who
dares tell member of the four hundred
how to behave.
Mrs. Russell presses her pupils into ser
vice at her classes. She calls up a married
beauty to strike an effective pose or a fam
GUS belle to illustrate the difference be-
tween a good and bad position. Fancy or
dering a Vanderbilt to come to the front or
an Astor to stand up in meeting! Further
