So \ the current issue of the
| SH Young Han Prof John Stuart
gkS Blaekie publishes an interest
ssSss ing article on "reminiscences of
his youth Like lady's letter, the
most important part Of it is in The
postscript, in which he sets down
few Of the rules OF conduct which
have guided him through life. and
which he has no doubt may have
contributed largely to any praise
worthy work that he has been able,
in the course Of a long life to achieve.
ACCEPT your oPpoRFUSITIEs.
81. Never indulge the notion that
you have any absolute right to
choose the sphere or the circnmstan-
ces IN which you are to put forth
your powers of social action but
let your daily wisdom OF life be in
making a good use of the opportuni-
ties given you.
AVOID LIES, SHOW AND SHAN.
II. We live in real. and solid,
and a truthful world. In such
world only truth in the long run can
hope to prosper. Therefore avoid
lies, mere show and sham, and hol-
low superfciality Of all kinds, which
is at the best a painted lie. Let
whatever you are, and whatever you
do, grow out of firm root of truth
and a strong soil of reality.
THE LAZY MAN DOESN'T COUNT.
iii. The nobility of lifeis work.
We live in a working world. The
lazy and the idle man does not count
in the plan of campaign. My Faith
er werketh hitherto, and I work.
Lee that text be enough.
THE STEAM OF THE SOCIAL MACHINE.
". Never forget st. Panl's
sentence, Love is the fulfilling OF
the law This is the steam Of the
social machine.
HAVE A BALANCE WHEEL
!" v. But the steam requires reg.
ulation. 1t is regulated by intelli- |
gence and moderation. Healthy ac- |
ton is always a balance OF forces,
and all extremes are dangerous the
excess os a good thing being often
more dangero is in its social conse-
quences than the excess of what is
radically bad.
LEAVE NO TAGS.
6 VI. Do one thing well. Be
whole man. as Chancellor Thurlow
said. Do one thing at one time |
Make clean work and leave no tags. |
Allow no delays when you are at
thing do it, and be done with it.
READ WITH PURPOSE.
= VII. Avoid miscellaneous read |
ing. Read nothing that you do not
care to remember and remember
nothing you do not mean to use.
DON'T COUNT EMPTY APPLAUSE.
!" VIII. Never desire to appear |
clever and make show of your tai
ents before men. Be honest, loving, |
kindly and sympathetic in all you
say and do. Cleverness will flow
from you naturally, if you have it |
and applause will come to you I'M
sought from those who know what |
to applaud bnt the applause Of fools
is to be stunned.
MAKE THE BEST OF THINGS.
TX. Above all things avoid
fault-findipg and habit Of criticism.
Let your rule in reference to your
social sentiments be simply this

To sell or not to sell ? That is the

To sell, to ship, perchance to lose
Aye, there's the rubi
For when the goods are gone,
What charm can win them back
From slippery debtors?
Win the bills be paid when due?
Or will the time stretch out till the

With claims for borrowed morcy?
What of exemptions. bills Of sale

That coolly offers ten cents On the

And OF lawyers fees
That eat up even this poor pittance?
Yes, sell we must,
And some we'll trust,

And stocks will rust,
But we'll skip the wust,

play is over work will begin. for the SUI

The supreme offcers'of the Pythian Sis

one of stores is largely patronized. Music.
dancing and q literary programme Will

Bacon. of Canton. O., the supreme pro-
tector, came In late yesterday. She Is very
enthusiastic over the attendance of sisters
and the interest generally manifested In
the work. Kansas, Iowa, Indiana and CAL
ifornia are all largely represented. and
other delegates not yet arrived Will swell
the ranks greatly. Mrs. Bacon has held
her present office since it was created at

ments now referred to, the Democratic
party would doubtless be glad to have
every last one of them destroyed. When
blue Jeans" Williams was Governor he
sold for old paper about ton of the re-
ports of w. II. H. Terrell. Adjutant-
general of Indiana during the war Pc
Rod. The seven volumes of this report
contain great amount of valuable his
torical material. including sketch of
the organization and services of each reg
iment, rosters of officers and enlisted
men, etc. There is also an account of
the disloyal proceedings of Indiana
Democrats during the war, with some
account of the treason trials, treason
able resolutions adopted by Democratic
conventions, etc. 1t was probably this
that prompted Governor Williams to
make a sacrifice of very large
number of the reports by selling them
for old paper. They are now scarce and
difficult to obtain, and In a few years
will be valuable. Governor Williams
may have been prompted to his action
by others, but no doubt the real object
was as far as possible to obliterate a
damning record of Democratic disloy-
atty during the war.

Pythians Make Great Display at Kansas
City-Twelve Thousand An Line.
Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
KANSAS City, Aug 23.-This city was
attacked to-day by the Knights of Pyth-
las and promptly capisulated. The Knights
overran the town, but were every where
met with welcomes. 1t is estimated that
$4,000 strangers are here. and although the
city Is uneomfortsbIy crowded. there are
cots and food for all. The chief feature of
interest to-day was the great parade. 1t
started promptly at o'clock in the after
noon. While there was no counting done,
q close tally was kept on the nlarchers. and
it is estimated that 1900 knights were in
line. No fancy evolutions were permitted.
but 1t was straiRhtaway walk for two
hours. the only changes made to break the
mOnotony being In changing from fours to
platOOns. The line of march was from
Camp George B. Shaw to the business por-
ton of the city. The time in passing
given point was two hours. At the end of
the march q light rain began falling which
quickly scattered those wearing plumes
who were afraid they would get their fine
apparel spoiled. In point of numbers the
parade was the largest ever seen In the
city, but from q spectacular standpoint it
was poor, and the crowds began leaving
the street long before the end of the line
came in sight. Indiana occupied the place
of honor, being the oldest division. Major
general Carnahan was Communicated chief.
On his staff was Gen. w. j. Mckee, sdju-
tant-general. The Indiana brigade con-
sisted of nine regiments. headed by James
X. Ross and staff. When tho head of the
parade reached the reviewlng-stand. on
Grand avenue, on the way back
TO camp, General Carnahan and
his staff dismounted and occu-
pied the stand. reviewing the march
ing hosts as they passed by. There were
one or two casualties in the way of men
getting exhausted, but the police ambu-
lances, winch followed the line picked
them up and carried them to places where
they could receive attention.
Tonight the business men of the city
took il upon themselves to have O parade
of their own in behalf of the sisters, and,
under nm bre Has of Pythian colors. they
marched TO the various headquarters and
then to Camp Shaw, where they serenaded
the Knights and then went In a body to
Exposition Park. where they viewed the
fire. works which were the feature OF the
evening.

CHANGE OF DATE OF THE ELwuoD MEETING.

Yesterday Chairman Gowdy received
q telegram from Hon. j. S. Clarkson,
president of the National Republican
League. asking if the date of the Ell
wood meeting could not be changed in
order that Governor Mckinley might
address the National League Conven-
ton in Buffalo, Sept. 10. Chair
man Gowdy. in order that the League
convention may have the service of the
protection champion, consented to a
change by which the Elwood meeting
will be held Tuesday, Sept. 10, in
stead of Thursday. Sept. Is. In
other. respects the change ia advan-
tageous, as Thursday Is the last and
most important day of two county fairs
which are held within the radius of
the territory which will contribute the
thousands who will 60 to the Elwood
meeting. Remember that the new date
is Tuesday. Sept. Is, and give prompt
notice of the change.

TIE END OF TIE IRON HALL,

The appointment of receiver for the
Iron Hall will not surprise any person
who has followed the developments of
the recent proceedings as they have ap-
peared in the Journal. lnview of these
developments any other outcome would
have been surprising. The evidence
has shown gross mismapagement of
large interests and q shameful betrayal
of trust by the supreme" officers of the
organization. Large sums of money
have been passed from one bank to
another TO sustain the failing fortunes
of the order or its parasitic institutions,
while other large sums have been "lost
IN the shuttle" and disappeared
altogether. The Supreme" officers
have drawn big salaries and lived in
clover, and whenever q crisis seemed to
be impending an assessment on the
members was ordered To stave it off.
The management of the concern, like it's
organization, was in defiance of all
sound business principles, and no per-
son at all acquainted with the principles
of sound insurance will be surprised at
the present outcome.
This is the end of the Iron Hall, at
least the beginning of the end. 1t is
hardly possible that any considerable
number of the members will desire to
continue the business. and the practical
effect of the appointment of q receiver
will be to wind it mp. Just what dispo-
sition will be made of the available
funds remains to be seen, but it is safe
to predict that they will be much more
honestly handled and distributed by a
receiver. acting under the orders of the
court, than they would have been by the
supreme" officers of the order, whose
business incapacity was only equaled
by the recklessness with which they
handled the large sums of money in
trusted to them by the deludcd members.
The end of the Iron Hall is simply
another proof that all financial schemes
which propose to enable a man to con-
vert putty into gold or lift himself over
a fence by his boot-straps are delusion
and q snare

A WORD TO CANDIDATE MATTHEWS.

Candidate Matthews, as the reports of
his speeches indicate, is very indignant
because the Mckinley law exists. He
desires to hurl it into 1.-The Stygian pool
of contempt" wherever that may be,
and will not take full quota of sleep
until that is done. Now, this is all very
we'll as campaign stuff upon the assump-
ton that the people of Indiana are
dupes and that attention can be with
drawn from Democratic misrule, Demo-
cratic bungling with tax laws and Dem
ocratic extravaganza in Indiana by talk
of that description; but the Journal be-
lieves it will fail of its purpose. Mr..
Matthews will not be able to fling the
Mckinley law into "the Stygian pool of
contempt" Most people in Indiana
know it. More than that, they know
that, for State purposes, they are
compelled to put their hands nearly
twice as far into their pockets this
thews ought to be able to give
the reasons for this. The people know
that the State debt has doubled within
a few years under the rule which Mr..
Matthews commends. and they would
like to know about this matter. They
also know that while it cost Indiana
1854. 59S.59 to take care of 2,349 insane
persone. or S227.5S each, it cost the peo-
pie of Ohio only SSO5. 9SS.22 to provide
for 5,079 such unfortunates. or S15S.69
each. All the taxpayers of Indiana
would like to have Mr.. Matthews ex-
plain why Democratic management of
the insane in this State involves cost
of SOS. 80 moro for each inmate in the
hospitals than it costs in Republican
Ohio. The people of Indiana would
also like to have Mr.. Matthews explain
where he found authority to amend the
apportionment act of 1891. after the ad-
journment of the Legislature. by in
sorting full clause.
Here are several topics of great prac-
teal interest to the people of Indiana.
1t will take Mr.. Matthews q couple of
hours to explain them. They should be
understood by man seeking the Office
for which he is q candidate. If he does
not explain them people will assume
