what viii His Honor" Do3

What Will His Honor" Do?
The indications yesterday afternoon
were that Mayor Cleveland was ar
ranging deal with Mayor-elect Wan
ser's owners by which his own person-
al gang would be5protected under the
new regime, and their little games
would prosper as Of yore, while his
'Honor,p the outgoing Czar, would
turn all the rest OF the City govern
lnent over to the tender mercies of
the new ring by making the appoint
ments now at his disposal in their in
terest.
This scheme may go through and it
may not. Doubtless it will be alto
gether a matter of arranging the Quad
pro quo. But the fact that negotia-
tion was set on foot and conducted at
all, is pretty fair indication OF the
exact amount of reform that the
new regime promises. We do not
accuse Colonel Wanser of being
party to this dfcker. Prob
ably he is in blissful ignorance
of lit. His time and attention are
taken up with the important matter
Of Misunderstanding. just at present-for
he's good fellow, you know; but his
personal participation in the business
of adjusting interests is not abso-
lutely necessary.
We are waiting with much interest
for the proclamation which His
Honor" will issue in case OF his turn
ing the government over TO the enc
my. or course he will put it on the
highest ground of obeying the popu-
lar willard there will ibe some fools
who will believe him.

it as the Paterson Press. 1t resumed
the subject on Thursday. thus
The Press yesterday suggested that the Re-

The State Gazette takes up the cry
in these words:--
Colonel Wanser, who won the ns piring victory
in Jersey City, is receiving quite a little Gu6er-
material boom The Colonel is certainly worth
considering.
Truly, political standing is funny

To Make a Home Out of a Household.

The most perniclous habit in the
world is the habit of s, wing every arti-
Gle and scrap and piece and bit of stuff
in general, with the feeling that some
time and somewhere and somehow it
may be of use. By virtue of fidelity TO
this underlined conviction, drawers and
closets and attics become filed with old
rubbish and accumulatlons, and trash
and stuff that are of no earthly use to
human being; that attrtct moths and
mice, and all the domesti pests; that
are burden and WEAKNESS to handle
and sort over, every now and then, and
are, indeed, simply worse than useless.
The true way is to apportion. The mo-
ment certain thing is unfit for spe-
cific use, let it be given to the person
who can use it. There are always to be
found people who have the time and
the patience TO mend and make over
and repair, and who must make their
time and handiciaft serve in lieu of
money; and to these persons should 90
all such wares. For people whose time
has value beyond that of repairing
and refitting, it is worse than folly for
them to waste it in such way. Where
life is on a fairly well-to-do scale it is
always better to buy new and give the
old TO those to whom it may be of ser
vice while it is yet good enough to be of
service. To hoard things against pos
sble time of their being wanted is idle.
The time will never come. Fabrics go
out of fashion, or they are cut in a way
to make changes impossible, or they
cannot be matched with new material,
or they are not worth putting with new
material. The same truths apply more
or less to all household articles. 1t is
idle and useless TO store them. Passing
things on is the law If life. CultirdtOr.

Climatic Changes.

These mild winters are naturally
enough a cause of constant discussion
at the table and by the Preside. Joseph
Wallace in the Popular Science Ne,cs
says that our climate las certainly been
much modified within the past two
thousand years. "There have been
fifteen climatic changes since the be-
ginning of the glacial age" he writes,
" each change lasting 10000 years and
each change reversing the season in
the two hemispheres, the pole which
had enjoyed continuous summer being
doomed to undergo perpetual winter
for 10, 800 years and then passing to its
former slate for an equal term" The
present epoch of a more genial tenn
perature at this season of the year in
this northern hemisphere begun about
fifteen the usand years ago, and, for nine
thousand years to come, writes Mr..
Wallace, I'VE may reasonably expect
gradual modification of our climate. y

Reading Clubs.

Now that Christmas is over we
should turn our attention in earnest 10
the winters reading. There is always
more interest in having several reading
the same thing. If possible, have sew
eral families unite and decide upon
some course of reading. If they can,
meet once a week and talk over what
they have read. In the plan do not
neglect historical reading, and at each
meeting let each one come with one or
more questions upon the past weeks
work. When the questions are read
and answered, the lesson will be pretty
well fastened in the mind. Ii it is
inconvenient for several families TO
unite, let each family form a club of
itself. 1t is an excellent plan to have
each one at the breakfast table give a
synopsis of what he has read the even
ing before. This would break up the
habit some families fall into of eating
in perfect silence. Not only is this
pan helpful to those who have been
reading, but the children will pick up
much valuable knowledge and you will
teach them that there is something
better to talk about than the neighbours
faults.-Rurdl Life.

End of a Charmed, Life.

The late Panther Jim," or James
Spearling of Mexican county, Penn,
was famous trapper. SiXty-five years
ago, when he had lived but few weeks,
he was found in maple sap trough by
a wild panther, and carried off in the
animals jaws before the mothers eyes.
The woman followed the brute and
crushed his head in with her clothes
FOUNDER, which she had been using in
the family wash. That was the origin
of the trapper's name. Since then his
life has seemed to be charmed one to
his acquaintance, but how ironical was
the fate that overlook him. A few days
ago, while climbing stone-wall on his
way to inspect a bear-trap, be slipped
andfell, his head striking cobble-stone.
And that was the last of Panther
Jim. "-Springfeld Republican.

An American Boy.

l once knew lady whose son, a
little lad of ten, was the admiration of
every one for his beautiful manners.
While he was perfectly simple, frank
and boyish, his manners were as assured
and correct as those of a grown man.
His mather could send him in a carri-
age alone to the station to bring a lady
guest from the station, certain that he
would give her needful attention. He
would take the checks, care for the bag
gage and bring her to the house with
every courtesy. And always when Wis
itors were at his home he did his little
share of entertaining them. He was
quick to wait upon them and to show
Them every respect, and, though he was
not forward, he was quite ready to con-
verse with them if they seemed so in

Counsel With Your Boy.

Let your boy feel that you are always
ready for him, always interested in his
plans, however wild they may be. You
can no longer command him. If that
has been your only hold, then may God
have mercy on you and on him. His
judgment is beginning to grow, per-
haps. Encourage it. Take him into
your councils. 1t will not hurt you to
seek his advice about family matters.
See how kindly he will take to being
looked up TO. DO you not like to have
your friends put confide nee in you :?
He is only another you. If his self
respect be small, you are cherishing its
growth. How do you treat the tender
plants in your garden? Do you keep
suns hine away from them, and step on
each tender little shoot as it lifts itself
up to the unknown light of a great and
strange world ? And AS the plants
gain sire myth and courage to stand
alone, do you nip off their leaves saw
agely and water them as with a flood
so that they have hard work to stand
against? Doyou leave them to droop
for bit of encouragement, to grow
awry for want of little support to
guide them till strong enough to stand
alone2 Or do you furnish props on
every side, and leave the full-grown
stem a derision TO beholders ? Never
let your boy feel that the household is
complete without him. He may prefer
any thing and every thing to his home,
but when his "reasons grow" he can
not help coming back to it, if you are
faithful to your trust. Never indulge
in despair, however hopeless the case
may seem, but keep beautiful trust in
Linn that will shine in your welcome.
He may not be worthy, but he will
grow to it.-EGchdnge.

The Fiftieth Annivareary

Golden weddings are rare occasions
in Watertown, and their celebrations
naturally few and far between. The
celebration Monday afternoon of the
fiftleth anniversary of the marriage of
Mr.. and Mrs. F. X. Hurtubise, of the
Third ward, was very happy one, as
1t was spontaneous and entirely unex-
pected on the part of recipients. But
number of their friends got together
and determined to take possession of
the Hurtubise household, which was
accomplished without opposition or
even intimation of the intention of the
callers. But the good pair were not
long kept fin the dark, and soon dis
covered they were to take part in the
celebration of their golden wedding.
Many articles were bestowed on them
by their affectionate visitors, which
will be regarded as beautiful souvenirs
OF their fiftieth anniversary, when they
blended their young lives together and
took each other for better or worse
How well they kept their promise is
we'll known by the harmony of their
lives, dwelling together in peace and
kindness, good example to their fell
low-citizens. But the ladies had a
good time and passed the afternoon in
singing and relating "reminiscences of
auld lang syne. After an enjoyable re-
past the company broke camp and re-
turned to their homes happy in the
consciousness of having had good
time and contributing to the pleasure
