on the Hon. John Sherman as their candi-
date to oppose Mr.. Harrison. They assign
various reasons for this. among them that
there are several states which, in their opin-
ion, could be carried by John Sherman
which would be doubtful if Mr. Harrison
were a candidate
We do not think the support is given to
Mr.. Sherman for any other great reason than
that he is the only available man TO beat Mr..
Harrison, while, at the same time, it must be
said that there is no statesman in this coun-
try so well equipped for the Office of presi-
dent as the Ohio senator There can be no
trades with him. He will stand firmly in his
place and carefully protect his honor.
Sherman Not Party to 1t.
He is not a party to this movement in any
sense, and must not be connected with ii TO
the extent of claiming that he is eandi-
date. At the same ume if the Minneapolis
convention should fail to nominate Nj. Har-
rison on the first or second ballot that would
be the end of him, as it was the end of Sher-
man in 1885, and in 1876 in Cincinnati, Of
Blaine. Mr. Blaine was not a candidate in
1888 or he would probably have been nomi-
mated. But Mr.. SheIman's strength not
being sufficient to carry him through then,
he was dropped. and MIR. Harrison was se-
lected.
Something like this may happen at Mime
apol1s. If Blaine would agree to accept the
place he would undoubtedly head the ticket
but he has said that he is not aud would not
be a candidate. This would seem 10 place
him outside the range of consideration. and
it is now Mr.. Harrison or somebody else. If
it cannot be Mr.. Harrison, then the opposi-
ton to the latter would. as it seems center
on Mr.. sherman. If. under the circum-
stances, the honor would be forced upon him
as a Republican and. man fully fitted for
the position-more so, perhaps, than any
other statesman in the country-he could not

ELEVEN VICTIMS NOW.
Two More Men Killed in the Ana

BUTTE, Mont. May 1.-Two more
men were killed at the ill-fated Ana

Saturday, and twenty-seven within a
year. The last two are Morris Shea,
aged nineteen, and Mike Burns, aged
forty-fve. They fell down a chute from
the surface to the 200-foot level. Burns
neck was broken and Shea'S skull
crushed. Burns was subject to fits and
the theory is that he fell into the chute
in a fit and pulled Shea with him. Of
the nine victims from Saturdays cavein,

The Question of Corsets.

Within recent years, since the question
of hygenic dress has been taken up by
women of good taste and an attempt has
been made to secure utilitarian dress that
should be graceful and beautiful, the ques-
ton of corsets has been much discussed.
Many women have totally abandoned the
corset, contending that there is no need of
any such support, while others believe it
to be a necessity of graceful dress, and
state in furtherance of their opinion that
even the ancient Greeks wore cincture
under the dress to support their figures.
The matter, like great many others, east
ly narrows itself down to individual condi-
tions.
The tall, willowy figure of graceful,
trim build may easily afford to dispense
with corset, while the stout, less COM
pactly built woman becomes caricature
without one, or without some equivalent
support. A great deal depends upon the
corset. The most radical dress reformers
usually substitute whalebone waist for
the manufactured corset, or they order the
dress waist to be so thoroughly whaleboned
that it gives all the support of the corset.
So there is simply substitution OF one
whaleboned waist for another.-New York

children and sunday.

There is a home, at which J am fire.
ouent visitor, that has among it's inmates
several children and these little ones hail
the coming of Sunday with delight look
ing forward to it from the very dawning
Of Monday morning until the close Of the
long week. They have toys with which to
amuse themselves during the week, but
the very choicest, loveliest and most priced
of them all are saved until Sunday, upon
which day they are brought out and given
them.
These children especially love TO draw,
each and all of them, and upon Sunday
they are provided with any amount of ma.
terial-drawing books, pencils, brushes and
paints. They have some very daintily made
drawing books, fashioned by their mother 5
hands, made of pretty drawing paper and
tied with bright baby ribbon. The pencils,
too are better (of finer lead and enameled
surface) than the every day" ones. AS
matter of course, soiled fingers are not per-
mitted to touch the dainty books, and
therefore upon Sunday the little hands are
extraordinarily clean.
The children too young to appreciate
this kind of amusement are well supplied
with toys, the finest and most attractive
among those in their possession being kept
for their Sunday pastime. Among the
toys reserved for the holy day are great
number of beautiful stone blocks; another
(although there are enough dolls to bring
out fresh one for every day in the week.
is lovely doll, exceeding all other dolls
in beauty of face, form and dress.
During the week these little ones play in
children's room or nursery, or in the
family sitting room only; but on Sunday
the pretty "best room" is thrown open to
them, and, in their fresh, clean attire,
their best beloved playthings in their pos
session, they seem inspired to be gentle
and polite. detroit Free Press

APeculiar Fact About Wo-

n Peculiar tact ABOUT w Oulu Be Suicides.
"Did you ever notice that as rule the
persons who seek death and are rescued
from the grave never court the society 0!
the dark angel again?"
The propounder of the question was II
hospital physician, and he proceeded to ex
plain without waiting for an answer:
'What mean is that of all the persons
who attempt suicide and are foiled, but
few try self murder second time. Prob
ably one-half, if not more, of all those who
try to kill themselves are frustrated. The
percentage of those who leap into the dark
river a second time is exceedingly small
have tried to discover the reason for this
from the lips of those who have gone
through the terrible experience, but have
not met with success.
st is queer that persons, after devoting
weeks and months to consideration of so
momentous question and deciding to end
their existence, should, when foiled, de-
clare that they were fools and swear never
to do the like again. Yet this is what is
done in a large majority of instances.
Those who have stared at death seem to
live life anew. The past is effaced; a new
light seems to have dawned. The sun
shine is dearer; the air is purer. 1t is the
convalescent taking great drafts of the out
door air with keenness of relish that was
unknown before. n-Chicago Tribune.

THE THREE DISTRICTS.

The locating of the three great judi
cial districts is one of the most impor-
tant questions that has come or Is
likely to come before the extra session,
and all prejudices and political Jug
glery should be laid aside while the
-ubject is being carefully settled. The
primary object ia not the three cities
which are to hold the three courts Of
appeal, but the boundary lines of the
districts, which shall give to the peo-
pie the best, the most economic and
the most direct administration of their
judicial affairs. With the best pos.
sible arrangement Ct the districts,
there is always an immese amount of
red tape, expensive and vexatious to
the litigants aud burden on
the State. How much worse is
the condition of things
when the districts are unwisely ap-
portioned, working innumerable hard
ships on the people that dwell within
them The district that should take
in central and southwest Texas, en-
bracing an immense scope of country
and involving a large amount of
business, will need court of appeals
located in some city that is accessible
to the majority of its population.
Austin is evidently the best city for
this purpose. 1t has room for the
court; and it has the state library,
always at hand and always ready for
use; library that is fact and not
promise. No other place that has
asked for the courts of appeals can
offer such inducements. The argu-
ments on the side of Austin are the
arguments of plain practical common
sense, and not mere bats thrown out
in the hope of catching something
that will boom some ambitious town.

The First Voyage of New Ship.


Any one familiar with the docks of oul
leading commercial cities will frequently
see new spars among the hosts of old ones

launched in Maine and sent for cargo II
she is large, with tall masts and skysail
yards crossed, you will see parties of gen.
tlemen in silk hats and well dressed ladies
about the decks every pleasant day while
she loads. Every one admires her trim
lines, her well proportional yards, her lofty
masts and the handsome fittings Of hel
cabin. Practical men note that certain
sized timbers have been used in her frame,
and that certain rules have been followed
in arranging and securing them.
When her cargo is in and she drops down
the bay, these men speak of having risks
on the Al clipper They have insured
her at the lowest rates. Her owners talk
of the top freight rates they have received
because she is stanch and swift. The
ladies who examined her remember she
cabin, the tapering mast and the snowy
canvas, and talk of her as perfectly
lovely" Even the crew speak well Of her
until the new canvas wears the skin from
the ends of their fingers while they take in

But the ship does not mind the gale; if it

Solution of the Servant Girl Question.

Solution OF the Servant Giri question
A marked cause of the defalcation in the
housekeeper profession is the false and sill.
ly sentiment among "the young ladies of
the period" that housekeeping is not re-
spectacle. The average young lady" who
is thrown on her own resources will copy
papers midst the tobacco smoke Of a third
rate lawyers back Office, stand behind a
shop counter and peddle pins, or even sew
her life out in miserable garnet, rather
than accept an honorable and comfortable
position at much better pay in the best
homes of the city. The strange prejudice
which prevails against such legitimate
and necessary calling as housekeeping pre-
sents serious problem. 1t is prejudice
that is responsible for useless and tickle
womanhood, weak and sickly motherhood,
feeble childhood and wretched homes. Yet
the health, happiness and progress of the
world depend more upon right housekeep'
ing than upon any other occupation.
1t is one of the bright signs Of the times
that cooking and housekeeping are becom-
ing subjects of popular education. Cook
ing lectures and housekeeping training
schools will do more in day for the adj
vance of civilization than our colleges of
literature and arts can do in year. The
new educational movement in the direc-
ton of housekeeping may yet end in max
ing that highest and most important of
callings popular fad. The hired girl
problem will then be solved. Once make
cooking and housekeeping fashionable and
the young ladies of the period will straight
way discard high heels, paint, bangs, cor
sets and smelling bottles for brooms, aprons
and rolling pins, and the market will over
flow with professional cooks, Amazon
