1t is regre;able, and TO be deprecated,
the extreme partisan view taken Of the
political situation on the Republican
side, some party papers going SO far as
to almost commit themselves against
certain persons in case of their receiving
the Minneapolis nomination. A more
phliosophic and ccmmendable view to
take is like this, from the Emporia Re-
publican: $50 far from being unfor-
tunate, Mr.. Blaine's resignation will
serve a good purpose. Indeed it has
already done SO by creating unparalleled
interest in the convention and by throw
ing the Republican hosts into a spirited
and good natured contest, which viii
put them in splendid condition to meet
the enemy"

PROPHETS AND PROPHECIES.

Suppose some malignant cynIc were 10
90 TO work and preserve the prophecies
and oracies which prominent public men
are uttering SO fuenily at this time and
for days past: Would not the scrapbook
make mighty interesting reading just
after the candidates are announced, ana
again Just after the election:
Here are Mr.. Chauncey Depew, Col
onel Elliot Shepard, John c. New and
some others simply leading the ar Win
forecast and conjecture, while MesSrs'
Plat, Quay. Clarkson, and Others III
the full odor Of claIrvOyance, tell d dla-
metricaIIy opposite tale. They cannot
all be right. Some may turn out to be
Mahomets, but much larger number
must inevitably be Maldis. The whole
chorus of the grateful ones declare Id
voices husky with emotion that Dir. Har-
rison will be nominated on the first
ballot by an overwhelming majority, If
not by spontaneous reclamation. Inc
others, who have nothing to be grateful
for, and whose emotions, though quite
as deep, is of different sort, assert that
the president cannot possibly be renoml-
mated and that the mere mention OF
Blaine's name will set the convention on
fire.
The same discord Of opinion is visible
in the Democratic ranks. Grave and
reverend clieftains Of that party have
proclaimed the inevitable, the tempestu-
Gus selection of Mr.. G eveland, while
just as many chieftains, equally grave
and reverend, scout the bare idea and
dismiss it as too preposterous for argu-
ment. With one set of soothsayerS he
is inevitable; with tie other he is impos-
sible. The party cannot win without
him. and il cannot win with him. He
is the only logical candidate, and he Is
the one man of all others who should
not be nominated. And so it goes.
Now, when some gentleman OF large
endowment in the line of the paste-pot
and the shears shall have devoted him
self to the collation. and systematic pres
ervalion Of these conflicting views ard
declarations, he Will have performed an
important and valuable service. 1t is
important that we know the true from
the false prophets, the real article from
the counterfeit Who has kept cases or
the oracles and can let US know the facts:

Tom Bings. the Napoleon of Democracy
of Redclay township, returned yesterday
from Minneapolis. Tom said the methods
employed by the Republicans was too
much for him. The post,nasters OF Terre
Haute and Fort Wayne. Indiana, Mr..
Bings said, are both Harrison men. One,
however would wear Blaine badge.
They would meet in a crowd and enter in
to heated discussion. Finally the man
with the Blaine badge became convinced,
threw his badge on the ground and donaed
the Harrison. Mr.. Bings saw them play
this trick five times and he took the next
train for home.

His Ashes Under a Rosebush.


The poetic element in the character
Of the late Q. Jerome Cary, whose body
has been cremated at Detroit, will find
lasting and beautiful expression if his
wishes are carried out.
1t was his oft expressed desire that
his ashes should be given to his init
mate friend, q. q. Whitnall, the florist,
to be buried beneath rosebush of a
variety of which he was particularly
fond. Only his very intimate friends
knew that Mr.. Cary was passionately
fond of flowers, and of roses in particu-
lar. He was in the habit of spending a
great deal of time among Mr.. Whit
nails flowers, and the latter was we'll
acquainted with the poetic side of his
nature. To him Mr.. Cary frequently
confded his thoughts, and he viii know
how best to carry out his wish.
Mr.. Whitnall will place the urn con-
tanning Mr.. Cary's ashes in spot which
he will select in his greenhouses, and
plant over it rosebush in such posi-
tion that the roots will strike down into
it. He will sink brick wall around it,
to keep other roots from striking it, so
that only the rosebush will reach the
ashes Mr.. Whitnall will plant small
LIE Marche rose, of which variety Mr..
Gary was very fond, and he will nurse
it carefully until it becomes tree. This
variety of rose grows to height of ten
or twelve feet and blossome profusely.
1t is said that at this time of the year
full grown tree will have from 1000 to
5000 blossoms. Wisconsin.

Making Them Young.

There once lived in the City of Mexico
a Frenchman known as Otavito Qittle
Octave), whose rogueries kept the town
in ferment. At one time he claimed
to have discovered specific for the re-
juvenescence of women, and by means
of sensational advertising he succeeded
in gathering clientele of forty or fifty
ancient danes, who were assembled, on
certain day, in a long sala, tricked out
with astrological symbols, crucibles,
alembics and all the paraphernalia Of
charlatanry. The conjurer presented
himself before the ladies and addressed
them in famboyant language, ending as
follows: "And now, senoras of my soul,
it is needful that the mystic ceremonies
before us. be opened by the oldest one
among you"
Then, addressing her whose appear
ance seemed to indicate priority, he
asked her age. "Thirty-seven years,
senor," simpered the beldame, who was
at least in the seventh decade. "And
you, senora?" ''Thirty-six." And so on,
until he had got them down to de-
clared age of twenty years, with maxi
mum of thirty "Well, ladies all,
you perceive that without further pro-
ceedings the miracle is accomplished"
said Otavito, ''for the least gallant Of
men could not call her aught but young
whose years are but thirty-seven-and
you see for yourselves that is the age of
the Oldest among youw-San Francisco

Can See His Brain Pulsate.

A remarkable surgical case was that
of little Charlie Fisher, who was recent.
ly discharged from the Eastern District
hospital, Brooklyn. The little patient
while riding with his grandfather on
Bedford avenue week or two ago, re.
ceived fracture of the skull and was SO
seriously injured that life was despair
ed Of
The horse, rearing up, kicked over the
dashboard, his left foot striking Charles
forehead. The three-year-old boy was
taken from the carriage Immediately
after the accident in an unconscious
state. An ambulance was summoned
and Surgeon Clifford took him to the
hospital without an idea that he would
ever recover consciousness-the boy
skull was so horribly mangled. But
House Surgeon Orrel worked hard,
taking broken fragments of skull from
the wound for three or four hours.
In all, ffty-six little pieces of skull
were taken from the child's forehead,
and there is now q round circle about
the size of a fifty cent piece over the
right eye where the brain is exposed.
Its pulsation can plainly be seen. If the
patient had been older a recovery, the
doctors say, would not have been so re.
markable.-Ne York Advertiser.

Physicians and Their Drugs.

The active competition for living
that the physician in New York has to
encounter has resulted in a curious
method for stimulating trade. There
are doctors in this city, graduates in due
form and no doubt in many cases men
of ability, who remit all fees for consul
tation, relying on the profits they obtain
from the medicines they prescribe for
emolument. Certain standard prescrip-
tions they have put up in quantities, and
these they sell directly to the patient.
Where prescription has to be COM
pounded the patient is sent to certain
drug store, at which the doctor has an
arrangement for his commissions.
Between these two devices the prac-
titioner really captures reasonable fee,
and he gets it, moreover, in cash, where
he otherwise might have to give credit,
with strong show Of loss, for though
patients will not dream of demanding
credit for medicines, they make very
small bones about leaving the doctors
bill unpaid once he has permitted them
to run it up.-New York Cor. Pittsburg

Peculiar Pronunciation.

Landor always pronounced yellow as
yaller. We have heard Mr.. A. r. Wal
lace, the eminent naturalist, during the
course of a lecture, repeatedly sound it
thus, a mode Of pronunciation said, in
deed, to be traditional in many good old
English families, and which includes
the substitution of laylock for lilac,
Room for Rome, goold for gold, and
wonderful for wonderful.
A homely old rural dean, long since
dead, used always, like Sam Weller, to
leave out the ''w" in woman, and bis
"Wilt thou have this CONAN to be thy
welded wife?" was apt to mar the So
lemnity of marriage service.-London
