Post comes to us laden with "interviews,"

obliged to be as personal as they can.
This doesn't help matters any, and
doesn't affect the real merits of the con-
troversy. Calling Mr.. Harrison names

"reading" him out of the party is funny.
If the two principal disputants don't

slightest idea that they do, the
only way to settle the diff

on the other members of the committee
for their statements. And perhaps even
their statements might not make the
whole matter clear, for there is abundant
room in it for misunderstanding. But
one thing is certain, and that is that Mr.
Harrison was in favor of seating those
whom he, in common with many other
Republicans, believed to be elected. Call
ing him traitor, an assassin, etc., does
not show that the course he would have
had adopted wa not honest, fair and wise.
We believe it was all three, and that it
would have brought about just settle

that was adopted hasn't done, and there

MINOR MINERAL INDUSTRIES.

MINOR MINERAL INDUSTRIES.
The minor mineral industries of this
country are considered in one of the
interesting census bulletins. General as
is the use of soapstone, comparatively few
people know where it comes from. New
Hampshire and Pennsylvania produce it
most abundantly, although it is mined to
some extent in Vermont, New Jersey,
Maryland and Virginia. The entire prod
uct in 1889 was 12,715 tons, valued at
1891 70S. Another stone in common use
about which the general public knows but
little is the whetstone. Most of it comes
from Arkansas, Indiana and New Hamp-
shire. That cut in Vermont is used
exclusively for scythe-stones. Arkan-
sas produces two varieties-a blush
white and pure white. Two
varieties also are cut in Indiana-a white
and an orange-tinted stone. The choco-
late-colored variety comes from New
Hampshire. The output in 1889 was
1891 tons, possessing value of $32, $50.
Graphite, or black lead, is found chiefly in
New York: the product of this State being
as great as that of Michigan, Pennsylvania
and Wyoming put together. Its use is
not confined to the manufacture of lead
pencils. AS lubricant it is superior to
oil for the bearings of heavy machinery; it
is clean and as durable as the bearings
themselves. 1t is substituted for red lead
in making joints, and as paint for metal
surfaces it has been found to be of much
value. The 1908 tons of graphite mined
in 1889 were valued at S72 662

the South and predicts with natural en-
thusiasm that it will become the greatest
manufacturing commonwealth in that sec
ton. The fertilizer business is rapidly
developing as vast and profitable indus
try, and all branches of trade appear to be
in prosperous condition.
Woman is always changeable, we are
told, but she is also always and everywhere
the same. John o. Doyle, who has charge
of reservation in the Indian territory,
says the Indian women are as great stick
lers for fashion as any dame of Partisan
boulevard. This year nothing but pea
green umbrella or parasol will suit the
squaws, and the bucks will have nothing
but blue umbrellas. Every Indian squaw
and buck is 80 equipped, and the effect is
quite brilliant. Last year nothing but
red, white and blue umbrellas were in
requisition, and this year the Indian
traders got in big supply of the varie-
gated sun protectors. but the Indians
would not have them, and green and blue
had to be supplied as the fashionable
colors. 1t is the same way as to calicoes.
One season one print prevails, and whole
tribe is dressed in it, the men shirted and
the women petticoated, and the next
season the same gaudy colors and figures
are looked upon with disgust.
Attention has lately been directed to a
report made to a convention of French
physicians, containing remarkable array
of facts as to the increase of insanity in
France, and especially as to the increase of
that form of the malady due to excessive
indulgence in alcoholic drinks. 1t appears
that in seventeen years insanity increased
throughout the country to the extent of
thirty per cent, ffty-six per cent. of the
insane being men and forty-four per cent.
women. The increase during the past sew
enteen years has in fact been almost en-
tirely in the branches of alcoholic insanity
and of general paralysis or paresis, only
very little advance being noted in mania,
melancholia and chronic delirium; alcohol
and overwork are therefore responsible
for the greater part of the increase of in
sanity thus recorded. Some fifteen years
ago the proportion of women among the
cases of alcoholic insanity was reported to
be one-sixth, while at present it is one
fifth. The singular fact is also mentioned
that the number of new cases of insanity
is greater in the spring, the month of May
seeming to inaugurate annually an cpl

for the meeting between himself and his
sweetheart. He could hardly wait for the
slow progress of the herd over the prai-
ries, and kept always near the leaders in
order to get to the town early. In the
meanwhile another lover had won his mis-
tress' favor, and had, too, been accepted.
One afternoon in the early fall the two
went riding in a carriage out south of the
city. They were along the trail, when, as
they came over the bluff, they found them
selves near the head of large herd of cat

Lover No. / was before them, and his
quick and longing eyes grasped the situa-
ton in an instant. Unloosing the long
rawhide lariat which hung on his saddle,
he dashed the spurs into his pony and rode
for the carriage. The girl shrieked as she
recognized him, and the new lover lashed
his team to escape, but to no purpose.
The curling line of rope went reaching
out certainly and with almost life-like in
telhgence. 1t settled around the neck of
the driver, and as the first lover turned
his pony in another direction the msn
shot out of the carriage and was dragged
over the sod helplessly and roughly.
On and on the ayenger spurred his
horse, the body bobbing over the sod at
the end of the lariat behind Soon they
were out of sight behind knoll and the

church usher. We have no trustworthy
information as to the effect of the innova-
ton upon the size of the reverend gentle
mans congregations, but we surmise, res-
soning both by analogy and from precon-
was a somewhat sudden revival of reh-
gious interest among the young men of
the community when the pretty girls went
Oh duty. We were, therefore, considera-
bly, surprised on reading that at meeting
of Chicago ministers tho other day the
Connecticut divine's clever idea was Be-
verely commented upon. One of them,
for instance, made the rather uufeeling re-
maak that ga young man who came to
church because there were young women
ushers had better stay away"
It appears, however, to our mind at
least, that this pastor effectually disposed
of his own argument in q subsequent dis
cussion upon the matter of church enter
tairments He then declared his belief
that ga man was pretty near salvation
when he could screw up his courage to the
point Of giving twenty-five cents for the
ordinary church oyster stew. Then, too"
he continued, 'it does my heart good to
see some old millionaire skinf1int who
wouldn't give forty cents for charity
wheedled into spending twenty-five cents
for stew with one oyster in it."
This language, we make free to say, is
entirely inconsistent with that used in op-
position to pretty girl ushers. Why is an
old millionaire skinflint, or anybody else,
for that matter, wheedled into giving
twenty-five cents for unibivalvular soupi
Is it not because there is somebody to do
the wheedling, and is not that somebody
the pretty girla How many people could
he get to buy, pay for and eat one-oyster
stew if the pretty girl did not sell the
stew with delicious affectation of igno-
rance of the oysters lonesomenessi Again,
if the purchase of such stew for twenty
five cents indicates that man is pretty
near salvation, why is he not great deal
nearer salvation when he risks hearing un-
comfortable truths from the pulpit in or
der to be ushered to his seat by a pretty
girla At the church sociable he encoun-
ters no such risk. He might, it is true, be
run into a corner by the preacher and
gently urged to mend his ways, but a con-
tretemps of this kind can easily be avoid
ed with little skill. Once in church,
however, there is no alternative but to
slumber. This is impossible because one
would lose caste with the pretty girl. AS
a matter of fact, then, there is no alterna-
tive at all, and the preacher must be list
ened to. Just why the pretty girl usher
system, if it results thus, is not as efhca-
cious means of salvation as the unibi-
valvular stew social we confess we cannot
understand Should it come into extern
sive use, we confidently predict revolu-
ton in the churches which Briggs and
Newton and Brooks combined could not
accomplish. Perhaps when the brethren
have got through cunning for heretics
they will devote some attention to this
new plan of salvation.
