4 Disappointed Man.

They who best know Mr.. Blaine have
been often puzzled by tho moody DISPOSE
tion of the man. He has Il strong faint OF
ii~ypochondrin i'll his nature: the morning
will find him full Of hope and fire, conf
dent of returning health aud yiuor: the
night may bring Il reaction that will! plunge
him into the horrors of melancholy.
Keen and severe disappointment has
brought him to this. turning the fruiton of
a life of glittering SUCCESS and overpower-
ing ambition into the bitterness of disnp-
pointed hopes. 1t is a case of the eagle
plning because he may not mount to Tie
ethereal realms beyond the flight OF his
plumage.
These dlsappointments have come both
in politics and his family. Mr.. Blaine long
ago fixed his ambition upon the presidency:
he was beaten first in convention and then
at the polls. Then i'll health came to crown
the pyramid of misfortune and to force
him to the reluctant admission that de-
spite his strong popularity he could neve,
more hope to round out his public career il
the manner skatched out by youthful fancy.

OMAHA, Feb. 23.-An appeal was issued

that this circumstance was u mistake
which would not happen again IN
twenty-five years. A letter was read
from Blaine, assuring those gentlemen

is supposed, they took heart as much as

The baby is growing in Importance as
a political factor. At the banquet Of
the Young Mems Democratic club, Of
Providence, r. l., three cheers were
given for ex-President Cleveland and
three more, with even increased enthu-

course, at least by the federal Office
holders in this state, that when the

Baby Mckee and Prince Russlet will

IT will require just 600 votes to nomi-
nate the next president of the United
States at the democratic national con-
v~entlon in Chicago. The total member
ship Of the convention will be 900, Of
whom S8S will come from the states and
twelve from the territories. From pres
ent indications no candidate will have o
majority on the first ballot. The con-
ventlon will be a dellberatiye body and
the decision will not be reached until
after all the delegates have assembled
and reasoned among themselves as to
the best course TO pursue, and thor
oughly discussed the various candidates
whose names will be presented before
it. The time-honored custom of re-
qniring a two-thirds vote to nominate
is ample assurance that no precipitate
action will be taken. After the conyen-
ton has adjourned it will be found that
its work has been we'll and wisely done.

NEW YORK. Feb. 23.-James Stevens, a
bartender, went home last night, quarreled
with his family and shot his wife and her
cousin, Nellie Smith, seriously injuring
them, and then committed suicide. Both
women jumped from windows on the second
floor after being shot. but passers-by
caught them and saved them from being
dashed to death on the pavement. Their
Wounds are not necessarily fatal. Stevens

WHATEVER good, if any, may come
from the industrial conference now in
session at st. Louis, it cannot be denied
but that the delegates represent an i'm
mense constituency. Among the dele
gates in attendance are several com
manding figures in moral and economic
reforms. OF these Miss Frances r. Viii
lard is easily chief by reason Of her won
derful ability as an organizer, her sub
lime Christian character and enthusiasm
powers as q public speaker. Mr.. Pow
derby is hardly 4 less conspicuous figure,
and has one great advantage over Miss
Willard from q political standpoint, in
that he represents a voting constituency
and can himself cast d ballot. Ignatlus
Donnelly is best known as the prize
crank Of the northwest, but is undoubt-
eddy q man Of varied learning and IN
usual ndtainlnents. He is at all times
picturesque and entertaining. Gen.
Weaver, the father Of the greenback
movement, although rapidly falling
into the sere and yellow is
we'll remembered as the leader Of
a political party that for a time gave
the old line politicians considerable I'M
easiness. Although not present in per-
son LELAND Stanford is there in spirit
and in purse, which latter circumstance
is his chief recommendation for fame.
Besides these stars Of the first magni-
tude many lesser lights Of local efful-
gence appear in the constellation.

Whatever sins. Of omission and

to answer for in the future, the action
last evening in unanimously voting to
appropriate 1926, 900 for the construction
of a public library and lecture room, will
not be among them. In this they were
endorsed by the almost unanimous SEN
timent of the community. The people
realized that they were in honor bound
to provide for the comfort Of the people
they had invited to come here in the
summer, and but asked their represen-
tatives in the city government to take
such action as would make every citizen
feel that he or she had done something
to make the stay of the visitors pleas
ant. By its action the city council di-
vides the expenses incurred among all
the people, and at the same time secures
for the use of the present and future
generations property worth a great many
more thousand dollars than it will cost.
The surprising thing is that after the
