Mr.. GLADSTONE wants it. Among these tardy
and lukewarm converts there are wide dif-
ferenccs OF opinion as to the proper scope
OF the concessions to be made to the de-
mands OF Ireland. They con all be made to
subordinate their own individual ideas to the
will Of their leader by demonstration
that Ireland's demands are distinct. uni

such demonstration. and in the presence
of proof that Nationalist themselves do

New York,s Free Lectures,

One of the potent educationa! influences
now at work in this town is the system OF
free lectures In the public schools. The
second and concluding course of these lee
lures for the present school year ended on
March 81. According to the report Of DR..
HENRY NJ. LEIPz1GER. Assistant Superin
tendent Of Public Schools. under whose
supervision the lectures are given. they
were far more successful even than they
were last year. The number OF auditors
increased from 1885 to 122.243. The lee
lures this year were given In eight public
schools and In the hall OF the Hebrew Insti-
tute. In each OF these places there were
thirty-two lectures during the season.
In the subjects chosen DR.. LEIpzIGER
showed a broad comprehension OF the needs
Of those to whom the lectures were ad-
dressed. They included physiology and
hygiene. natural science. travel. and his
tory. and were illustrated with all the
means which recent improvements in the
magic lantern, and In the apparatus for
scientific experiments. have placed In the
hands OF lecturers on such topics. The
Superintendent reports that the lectures on
American history proved particularly at
tracttve. and he thinks this Is m indication
OF the great value OF the course In spread
Ing correct knowledge OF the political
principles of our country. and In inculcat-
Ing deep sentiment OF patriotism.
The lectures on other subjects. however.
did not lack attractiveness. and in no
case was there small audience in attend
ance. The utmost eagerness to hear every
word OF tho lecturer was frequently exhib-
ited. and there was at all times marked
absence OF frivolity and inattention. Under
such circumstances 1t would have been sur
prising II no effect had been noticed upon
the general intellectual character OF tho To-
caiities where the lectures were given. DIR.
LElPZIdER makes significant remark upon
this point. In the light Of the experience
OF the last two years." he says. ~ think
1t can safely be said that the free lecture
course is most valuable part OF our edu-
catlonal system. 1t has already stimulated
much mental activity. as Is shown by the
TACT that the circulation in several OF our
free libraries has increased as q consequence
OF these lectures"
he makes number OF suggestions for
the improvement Of the course next year.
and there seems to be every reason for pre-
dieting that the rapid increase In the popu-
larity and usefulness of this praiseworthy
effort to found a peoples university of a
new kind. will continue to be manifested.
perhaps with still greater emphasis. during
the coming year.

The Instructed Delegates.

Up to this day ton States Of the forty-four
in the Union have held Democratic Conven-
tons. namely: Indiana, Kansas. Massa-
chusetts. Minnesota, Nebraska, New York.
Oregon. Pennsylvania. Rhode Island. and
Wyoming. two Of these being doubtful and
tho rest Republican. In three only have the
delegates been sent to the Democratic Ma
tional Convention with instructions to vote
for particular candidate. namely: Kansas.
New York. and Rhode Island.
The seven others refused to instruct for
any ono. although in each the worshippers
OF the Stuffed Prophet followed up their con-
fldent predictions Of triumph with strcnu-
GUS efforts to get the delegates nailed to
his coffin. In Minnesota and Oregon the
old CLEVELAND machine succeeded in get
ting its candidate endorsed without a
great display Of difficulty. In Massachu-
sets and Pennsylvania the Claimants
name was favorably mentioned In the plat
form after an exhibition OF such powerful
opposition that the Mugwumps must have
thought themselves lucky to get anything
even SO porfunctory. In Nebraska and in
Wyoming the resistance to the CLEVELAND
attack was much more emphatic and de-
forces had manPuvred with desperation
that denoted full understanding that there
was to come their death struggle. they
managed to wrest from the Convention n

Mugwump incubus was the Democraey's

tariff reform. The delegation to Chicago
received ono single instruction: to pre-
sent the name Of ISAAC p. GRAY" as
candidate for President. In the fore
destined situation OF CLEvELAND's being re-
garded as "inexpedient." the delegation are
to vote for the man they arc already told to
nominate. In other words. from all these
seven uninstructing States there will go

fractional struggling for the Presidency has
always been vigorously Stunned by all honor

for President but like a Roman he refused to
break through tho delegation which had been
elected for HENDRICKS. III 1884 no ambitious

MAN. In 1888 WILLIAM MCKINLEY launched
the whole force OF his indignant de.

him for the same purpose. In New York in the
same year Governor DAVID Il HILL was a can
didate for the Presidency. and was barely
beaten in the preliminary arrangements for
his partys delegation to the National Conven-

mouth was never opened but to plead for the

not by any such cowardly and partial
method. Rather than pass tho Sixteenth
Amendment. as proposed by Mr.. MITCHELL
aud Mr.. TURPlR. he would aim directly at
the plutocrats by suppressing plutocracy,
and to that end he has drawn up q pro-
posed amendment "for the prevention of
the excessive accumulation OF wealth by In
dividuals and corporations" a. follows:
"ARrIcrS IvL
"Ths excessive accumulation Of wealth BY indi.

Not that Mr.. CHANDLER believed that his
proposed substitute for Mr.. MrrcHELLs
and Mr.. TURTLES Sixteenth Amendment
could be adopted without difficulty. On this
point he had an anecdote to tell:
"a few years ago . member OF the House of Repre.

me that he wished to introduce measures that
would popuarze him with his constituents and he
asked me II could not draw up something for him. I

Two Foolish nIcn.

Among tho most interesting visitors at
the outlying summer resorts aro the
rural business men who run down from
town to sec tho sights. They have
money and are persons Of consequence
at home. ono OF their most important
duties Is to go through tho dinner. They
have expected 90 find waiter behind
every chair, and fancy they are neglected
If their orders are not attended to im-
mediatoly. Two Of them, already an.
noyod at the delay, had everything the
bill Of faro could offer but the black
pepper, Tint was nj tho other end OF
the table, and tho waiter was gone.
Neither would take up knife or forl;
without the pepper. They fumed and
frctted. They vowed they would never
como to that hotel again. They wouldn't
come there for $4,000. They wouldn't
spend u summer ut any fashionable wa
tering place for money. They made
themselves so unhappy that neighhor
made an effort aud got them tho pepper.
But II was too late TO restore their spir-
its. When tho waiter ondeavored to
serve them again eagerly, and with cir.
cumstancc, one exclaimed;
"oh, yes; you're in great hurry now,
Don't jump around 30; you make me
nervous
Finally the other laid down his knife
and forl; and said solemnly: II feel like
I'm robbing my wife and children eat
ing such an expensive dinner. It's the
way men ruin themselves when they
ought to DO laying up money in tho
bank"
Thus these two poor men struggled
through tho meal, torturing themselves
with every mouthful, and simply be-
cause their little bundles OF self love
were hurt at not getting the black pep
per the moment they wanted it. N'--
