Some time ago he had occasion to take the

age for conduct. The lad having no ex-
cIlse silently bore the reprimand. As soon
as the parent had left West Point the boy
went to the library and got down the rec
ords for the years in which his father was
a cadet, and carefully marked down his
fathers average for conduct. Soon after
the first visit the father called on his son
again and began to lecture him.
The son stood it for short time, and
then quickly going to his desk brought
out an envelope addressed to his father
and handed it to him. The boy said, "Be-
fore going any further, you had better look
at this" The father opened the letter,
and as soon as he began to read it he saw
that his son had made a comparison of his
conduct average with his own, and as the
fathers was the worse he quickly put the
letter in his pocket and said, "Well, my
boy, things were different then, but we
will drop the subject" After that the
cadets reports were passed by the fatherl
without comment.-Philadelp Press

NEW YORK, April Crank Corvallo lives on
Willoughby street near Pearl, Brooklyn. Cor
vallo was guard on the bridge cars; now ne is
one OF the most interesting Ca ses under the care
OF the physicians of Brooklyn hospital. About
two months ago while Corvallo was on duty
there was heavy rain storm accompanied by
lightning. He says just about the time of
vivid flash he felt a singular sensation pass
over him. The cars were at that moment in the
center of the bridge. He recalls now that he
felt qualmish and that he seemed to be unable
to move about the platform. At o'clock in the
morning Corvallo went home to his family and
to bed. Next morning while eating breakfast
he was very nervous, and he told his wife OF his
experience the previous night. She advised
him TO get substitute and refrain from work
couple OF days and rest. He did So That after
noon Corvallo while using his knife noticed
the blade seemed TO stick to his fingers At
dinner, while sharpening the table knife with
the steel, the latter article felt as If it were
glued to his hand. Corvallo thought the Incl
cents rather singular, but forebore telling
his wife, as he did not wish to brighten
her as she was nursing baby. In two
days Corvallo started to go to work As he
crossed the street he stepped on the car track
and IL was with difficulty that he was able to
lit his feet up. Corvallo returned home and
sent one of his children for doctor. The latter,
after hearing Corvallo'S statement, attributed
the alleged remarkable occurrence to imagin-
alton and gave his patient an opiate but Cor
vallo seemed to be worse next day. He had
been sleeping in an iron bedstead and it was as
much as he could do To rise from his couch. Go
ing to work was out of the question When the
doctor called during the day he was surprised to
see the singular effect that the contact of knives
and scissors had on his patient When placed

they can only cure Corvallo oy keeping him on

Edmunds on the Political Situation.

WASHINGTON, April 6.-The Star this evening
has long interview with Senator Edmunds on
the general political situation. Speaking of
the Farmers alliance movement, the Senator
said: Some people are trying to persuade the
farmers that laws have been made which oper-
ate unjustly upon them and that laws have
not been made that would furnish them with
more rapid and steady prosperity" He thinks
they are 10 large degree mistaken and in time
will discover it. Indeed, he presumes the larg
er part OF rejecting farmers understand
that crops cannon, be increased by
legislation, or debts honestly paid
by lessening the value Of what is called
money. Asked what the dangers TO both the
great parties in the situation were, the Senator
sand II in the next presidential election the
Farmers alliance should carry any
S states o, without having majority of
no election by the people, and the present House
| being largely Democratic that party would elect
Its candidate. As to the danger of the Republi-
can party, it is that the alliance may carry some
states that would otherwise go Republican and
thus if there was no election by the people
give the election to the Democratic candidate
Asked il ne thought the silver bill would be an
issue IN the next campaign, the Sen
ator did not think il would be an is
sue between the Republican and Democratic
parties. although he thinks the Democratic
party VIII hardly wish to make it an issue to the
extent of running any considerable risk of
separating gold and silver as the coin money of
the country and certainly the great body of
Republicans will not. Up to the point of safely
the Republican party will be in favor of using
silver as money, ash always has been. What
the Farmers alliance platform if the party
should nominate presidential candidate, will
be, he couldnot say. "A third party movement"
continued Senator Edmunds, undoubtedly
exists in the Farmers alliance. If susscssful
to the extent of getting the President and Con-
gress. 1t would doubtless lead TO the enactment
OF the measures they have indicated: and
whether they were good or bad for farmers
would soon be known The Senator did not
think communism is at the bottom OF the farm
ers' movement, and added the percentage of
communists in this country he believed to be
very small. AS capital is always anxiously
watching the conditions and government OF a
country, the success of any movement which
would render unsound legislation probable
would greatly disturb the finances of the
country, and that, of course. would reach every
branch of labar and business
