A Striking Coincidence.

Sixty-four years ago Thos. Carr set tied near Seymour, Ind, and put out an orchard. He had two small trees left, which he gave to his sons, who planted and cared for them until they grew to fine trees. In 1877 the elder
 son died, and the apple tree that he planted and care for fell the same day.
 Recently Co.olel George W. Carr, u e
 other son, died, and within an hour his
 tree broke off at the roots and fell to
 the ground. It was most striking
 coincidence.

Mild-mannered Bad Men.

"It is remarkable how few men who have attained notoriety as desperadoes looked the role" said Maj. T. c. Dewitt, one of California'S forty miners now taking his ease at the Southern. ''I have seen the most of the transmississippi terrors, and, with the exception of Cole Younger, now serving life term at Saltwater, ,Minn., they looked anything but dangerous. Jesse James resembled mild-nan- nered country pedagogue, and Frank James might be mistaken for parson. Cole Younger's brothers were inoifen- sive-looking boys; Ben Thompson would have passed unnoticed ln d crowd of rounders, and the Pacific slope killers were, so far as l remem- Der, rather a misunderstanding lot. The heavy villains of Western history were not in accord with Stage tradition. ."- Globe Democrat.

At Newark, N.

The Newark girl was equal to the emergency. She told him to wait until she finished fix. ing her bangs; then she heated the curling iron red hot and deftly tossed it into the space between the tramp's neck and his collar band.

M,NALLY on Tor.

There seems 10 be no longer any
doubt that Mr. James McNally has fully
established his capacity to boss the
Democratic party in this city.
The humiliating defeat of his enc
mics i'm the state central committee yes
terday proclaimed the fact, and also adj
vertised the loss of power and prestige
that has been suffered 10y the clique that
two years ago would not accord the
astute gentleman the treatment due the
humblest member of any political party
The Democrats suffer greatly by the
msdirected zeal of the men who seek TO
throw out Of the party all who do not
see fit TO work with them for their own
peculiar schemes. 1t may be that Mr..
McNally is the black political pirate he
has been constantly painted, but there
is now, and has been, no evidence OF IT..
We have no desire to attempt to smooth
any of the kinks out Of the Democratic
situation, but we have been curious to
note the outcome of this rabid fight
against McNally. 1t has terminated as
ought TO have been foreseen. McNally
was made a martyr of, and he is now
enjoying the triumph that martyrs all
enjoy sooner or later.
The Democracy is making excellent
progress in the laudable endeavor to dis
| member itself. 1t is so rent and tori
asunder as to be almost a harmless po
litical opponent, and the chief notice L
now attracts is directed toward its fam
lily quarrels. Ii is going into the stat'
campaign seriously handicapped, which
does not mean that the people of tn
state will suffer in the least. They vii
be the gamers, rather.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 2l.-Stanford Uni
uersity is a lively young institution, hav-
ing over 800 students, though only 10
months old. 1t has now beaten the
record by engaging a president of the
United States as regular lecturer. This
president is Benjamin Harrison, though
he will be an ex-president when he begins
his duties at Palo Alto next April, imme-
diately after he gives up Office at Wash
ingtop.
President Harrison will come out here,
and will deliver course OF lectures. lie
will probably lecture each term, ana III

Alto during the winter.
Senator Stanford confirmed the report.
He said: 1--WE have been negotiating
with President Harrison for some time
TO accept professorship at Palo Alto,
He will occupy the same place as did
Prof. Andrew ID. White, the eX-presiden'
of Cornell University, who was com
pelled TO resign because of his recent an
pointment as minister TO Russia.
The senator's secretary, Mr. Nash, said
81 do not understand that President
Harrison would necessarily make his per
mauent residence here. He would be I
non. resident member of the faculty, al
prof. White was, and would make trips
| here. 3,
"His lectures, so far as understood, vii
have wide scope. Anything he desire

THE Democrats continue to furnish
evidence of the unexampled harmony
that prevails in that party. The faint
effort to unload Mr. McNally that was
made yesterday ridiculously failed, as
it should. When political opponents
are compelled to resort to such petty
shifts it is perfectly right that they
should be brought to open shame and
discontinue, as the faction that tried TO
stab McNally in the back yesterday
were brought TO shame and ignomin-
iously beaten.

THE question which the society for
the suppression of vice will have to meet
is not that of removing temptation from
the guilty by closing the doors of the
house of ill-repute, nor is it the question
of making publicly odious either the
lessees or owners of such places.
Either expedient will be tempo
rary only. The question which
finally must be settled is whether
public morality can be successfully sub
1ected TO hot-house forcing process and
thus quickly raised TO a perfection where
vice will no longer be condoned and
hence no longer attractive Just so long
as an individual prefers vicious habits
which injure himself, only just 50 long
will he find means 20 continue sucl
habits.
