4 THIRD PARTY.

From the Memphis Commercial dem
One of the most persistent OF the ad-
vocates of a third party Is Mr. Polk,
himself candidate for any kini OF an
Office, from the presidency of the United
States down 10 ward constable. Dir. Polk
is like great many others, be is a man
OF disappointed ambition, and probably
seeks the organization OF another polit-
ical party, not from belief that tGere IS
real need for such, but to further his
own ambitious ends.
That there is no need for third party
ought not TO cause much argument
=
The Democratic nor any other party can
afford to yield t. the absurd and wild
demands OF the Ocala platform, which
could not be made practical even if both
houses Of congress and the president
should assent 10 them. Tie leaders OF
the third party movement know this per
feCtly well. but they must get up soue-
thing u give them notorlefy, and 10
other means for so doing az prssen. pre-
sent themselves

HoDoring q King.

A French writer on THE Revolution,
the Empire and the Restoration" cites an
amusing instance of what he calls heroic
courtesy. Percy, Lord Beverly, invited to
dine with him a marquis who was one OF
the most valiant soldiers OF the army OF
Condo Wishing TO honor his guest and
the cause which he served, that Of the
French king, the English peer ordered his
butler to bring him bottle of fine wine
100 years old, "a ray of sun shut in crys-
tai" lie opened it carefully, and offered a
glass to the marquis, saying, III you deem
it worthy the honor, will you drink in this
wine the health of the king"
The marquis tasted the wine. "How
do you like it?" asked the host. "Exqui-
site" replied the marquis. ~'Then." said
Lord Beverly, Finish the glass; only in a
full glass can one drink the health of so
great and SO unfortunate a king" With
out hesitation the marquis did as he was
hidden. Only when the Englishman
tasted the wine did he learn that what he
had forced on his guest was castor oil

DRAPING NUDE FIGURES.


While the worlds fair was under dis
cus5ion in the house the other day Mr..
Butler Of Iowa suggested an amendment
for which the public has not yet given
Mr.. Butler the recognition and glory he
deserves. Here is this amendment, shorn
of unnecessary verbiage: There shall
not be exhibited in the Worlds Column
bian Exposition any painting which shall
contain a nude or partially nude figure.
Nor shall there be permitted to EeeXhib-
tied in the art gallery or in any part of
fairgrounds any statue which shall con-
tain a nude OF partially nude figure or
figures; but all such figures shall be
properly and modestly draped in such
manner as will conform to the 'Ameri-
can standard of purity in art" The
fact that Dir. Buffers congressional col
leagues eagerly seized upon his amend
ment and strangled it on the spot does
not signify that there are not here and
there persons who sympathize with his
intentions, if not with his suggestions.
There will always be people incapable of
understanding the well-worn adage that
man generally sees in a work of art
Just what he brings to it.

Mr. Ives who was elected attorney gen.
eral of Kansas by the Peoples party in
1890, is too closely engaged in the dis.
charge of his official duties to get out and
hustle for COMMUNICATIONS City
Star.
Mr.. Ives will not stand for renomin
alton for his present office if the Kansas
City compact between his party and the
Democrats is ratified, thai position fall
ing to the Democrats in the shake out.
As for his hustliug for the nomination
for another and higher position, we note
the coincidence that important business
@ brought him to this city just on the
eve of the meeting of the county con-
vention of his party. There are lots of
queer things transpiring just now in the
world of politics.

Infantry Can Endure More Than Cavalry

On a march infantry will endure the
fatigue much better than cavalry, and IN
a long distance the foot soldiers will out
march the horsemen. Those who doubt
this statement should remember that n
horse in army service carries about 90
pounds weight, while the soldier carries
only his gun and from twenty to forty
pounds.
Notwithstanding the fact that ten
minute halt is made in every hour for
stragglers TO catch up, cavalry struggles TO
the rear more than infantry does. and the
care of horse ON a long march is a serious
matter. The horses are picked animals,
but even the best horse Is liable 70 fail
lame from the loss of a shoe or a stone IN
his hoof, or from some other cause which
at first may be entirely unperceived BY the
rider.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

Sound travels by waves radiating from a

The water supply of Chicago has given
the city no little solicitude recently on
citys sewage that is carried into the
lake by the Chicago river into which the
sewers empty. The city's immediate
solcitude is caused by the near approach
of the National Democratic convention.
But this should not alone give the city
any special concern; the Democrats will
not require any water; they don't drink
any, and they have no other use for it.

The idea of spending $4,000 or any
other sum on the Kaw river with view
to rendering that stream-way navigable
is simply preposterous, it would be an
absolute waste of that much money.
The Kaw does furnish enough water
when kept together to run a few mills,
but it doesn't amount to enough to turn
a tornado. 1t is that much, at least, be-
hind the Arkansaws, Big and Little.
And they don't require any public ap-
preparation to do it, either.
