Mr.. Depew in Demand.

There are few men in public life more
scrupulous in keeping appointments than
Chauncey M. Depew. That much court
ed gentleman, as a general thing, is un-
able to accept one third of the invita-
tons that he receives, but after he has
accepted an invitation to attend meet
ing, banquet or ball nothing but sick
ness will prevent his keeping the engage
ment. Occasionally he finds himself
"booked" for two or three engagements
on the same evening, and he manages to
get around on time and make pleasant
impression at each place. A few nights
ago he had two dinners and a private re-
ception on his hands.
One dinner was at the Union League
club and the other at Delmonico's. Mr..
Depew made the principal speech at
each. One evening he went to Yonkers
and delivered an grafton on the occasion
of the opening of a new building. He
came back to this city, and reached Del
monico's in time to take prominent
part in the Patriarchs first ball of the
season. Doubtless the fact that Mr.. De-
pew never allows himself to fret about
anything explains how he can fill two OF
three important engagements in an even
ing, and appear on each occasion fresh,
calm and smiling. New York Times.

Height of Cruelty.

Nervous women seldom receive the
sympathy they deserves while often the
pictures of health, they are constantly aiing.
To withhold sympathy from these unfor-
tunates is the height of cruelty. They have
a weak heart, causing shortness of breath,
iuttering, pain in side, weak and hungry
spells, and finally swelling of ankles, oppres-
sion, choking. smothering and dropsy. DIR.

Herbert bismarck i'm Paris.

Count Herbert Bismarck, after spend
ing five weeks with different friends in
England, has arrived in Paris. He has
come chiefly in search OF distractions,
which was also his object north of the
channel. Whether the search has been
so far successful is more than doubtful,
as he is looking sad and depressed
man, wearing the appearance Of one
from whom the tide has flowed. An old
friend with whom he had been convers-
ing last evening was heard to remark
after he went away that he was not up
to date, and seemed hardly to take in
what is going on in any part Of Europe,
OF what has gone on since he dropped
out Of politics.
In this connection the person l quote
observed: "HOw wonderfully soon a
politician who is not great in himself,
like Mr.. Gladstone, loses touch with the
political world when obliged to retire
therefromr' Prince Bismarck is said by
his son to bear up well against the
neglect into which he has fallen. He
finds occupation in business enterprise.
His brewery scheme interests him. The
princess takes far more to heart their
changed position. She is in poor health.

Electrical Lectures.

1t was recently suggested that electric

desired to become familiar with electric

is about to put into practice modifica-
ton of this idea, and its president, DR..
Seth Low, states that it proposes to have
a course of evening lectures, illustrated
by experiments, on the practical appli-
cations of electricity. DR.. Low, while
favoring the idea of night schools in
electricity, under certain conditions, is
of opinion that, in some cases where
they are practicable, course of evening
lectures can be given with very great
beneft.-New York Commercial Adver-

the democratic house is to investi-
gate some of the doings of the bill
lion dollar congress and Of certain
branches of the present administra-
ton. For instance, the people would
like to know whether it is true, as
has been charged by responsible
parties, that one-third of the money
paid out for pensions is paid on
fraudulent claims; also, why it is
that the National bank examiners
do not find out the real condition
of the banks they examine, and
about numerous other things, not
forgetting Secretary Fosters Jug

thing too, which the people expect

A CENTURY'S RECORD.
What the Democratic Party HAS
Done Toward the NatiOn,s
Growth.

Congressman Mcmillan, in a. recent
interview, gave the following brief re-
view of the achievements Of the demo-
cratic party, which should be familiar
to the rank and file i'll this later day,
when democracy is once more becoming
respected and popular to the masses:
''We are sometimes told by those
who have not reflected on the merits
Of our party, "The democratic party
has done nothing for me. Both the
old parties are bad, and one is just as
bad as the other.'' / am not here to
defend the republican party. Its prac-
tices are not commendable, nor it's
principles correct; but I am here to
raise my voice for democracy. and to
denounce as false the statement that
it has done nothing for the people.
What has the democratic party done
for the people? 1t found this country
a "pent-up Utica'' extending only to
the Mississippi river on the west, and
not reaching the Gulf Of Mexico.
Spain held the Gulf, and France the
Mississippi. Our right to navigate
that river was denied. Under the wis
dom of Jefferson and the diplomacy Of
Livingston and Monroe we acquired
Louisiana, which embraced not merely
the present state Of Louisiana, but the
territory up the river and west Of it,
now teeming with millions Of people =
2 territory seven times larger than
France after she parted with it. The
emocratic party in power purchased
