A Political Guerilla.
New York Press.

David B. Hill has ceased to be gov.
ernor He is about to don his long
neglected senatorial mantle. As gov
ernor he had powers which he has sx-
ercised to degrade politicc, encourage
political theft, defy the courts and the
law, and protect criminals engaged in
political crimes from just punishment.
There is scarcely any criminal act
short OF murder that has not been
done by his associates and followers
to attain his and their objects in re-
spect to securing the control of state
affairs. Around him there have been
organized and utilized for political
plunder and operations men who have
committed such crimes on law and
morality as perjury, ballot stealing,
making false election returns, con-
tempt of court, and open defiance and
disobsdiance of the mandates ofcourts,
the Democratic judges of which could
not be threatened or persuaded to
construe the law so as to permit his
revolutionary plans to be carried out.
He goes to Washington crowned with
political infamy.
When he comes into the United
States senate it will be as a small and
unimportant factor compared with
the power he has just laid down. He
cannot browbeat, bully and defy his
associates there; but it is we'll for the
Republicans of that body to realize,
as they must and will if they read his
utterances and study his career, that
this leader of the desperate elements
of Democracy denouncss them as trail
tors to their country, whose very
presence on earth is obnoxious. He
has in him the spirit that would lead
him to attempt the exercise of die
tatorship in any executive Office he
might fill, as he has been doing in the
governorship OF New York.
The Press is particular in thus pic
turing David B. Hill to his Republican
colleagues, because his Democratic as
sociates in the senate are already pre-
pairing to give him an ovation as a
conquering hero. 1t should be known
that he is political guerilla and cut |
throat, and not in any sense either |
the leader of popular and righteous
revolution or the calm ruler moved al |
ways by right, justice and patriotism. |
He is a disgrace to Democratic tradi- |
ton and name, to all that is holy and \
sacred in fundamental law and to |
American citizenship itself. He is the
most dangerous and daring political |
trickster this country has ever seen.
He began his political schooling under |
Tweed and Tilden and is worthy dis
ciple of their political teaching.
His principal backing in this state is
the Tammany organization, which is
ruled by men killers, ex-convicts, black
mailers and criminals.
III he should be allowed to have his
way our Republican form of govern
ment would be swept out of existence
and the states ruled by political bosses.
This is both a reflection OF David b.
Hills character for the benefit of Re-
publican senators and a warning that
they trust him not.

A Happy Fact Clearly Stated.

Minister Romero in January North
American Review: 1t is u fact that
wages in Mexico are far lower in many
cases then those paid for the same
industries in the United States; but
this ought not to seem strange when
it is considered that this country pays
probably the highest wages in the
world, and not even the foremost
manufacturing nations of Europe, as
England, France, Germany and Bel
GUM can compete with it in this re-
gard.

Illustrious Example.

George A. Lobdell, aged nine, OF
Kingston, \. ", is in Jail for garroting
and robbing another boy OF twelve.
While this may not be due to the ex-
ample of Gov. Hill and Tammany
hall, it is evident that with proper
field for the display of his talents this
boy would reflect great credit upon
the dominant school OF New York pol
iticians.-Pioneer Press.

Figures are funny things. They may
be manipulated in a most mysterious and
marvellous manner, 50 as TO entirely de-
ceive the uninitiated; but when we get
at the naked truth we find them very
simple. OF course, we do not refer to
ladies' figures, but to common or garden
numerals. Strange tricks may be played
with dgures-again we refer to numerals
las amusing and psrplexfng as with
those time honored and indispensable
conjuror's confederates-pack of playing
cards. In most Of these the figure nine Is
the most important factor. There are
some peculiarfties about this little bullet
headed gentleman which are really start
ling. He has . ph@nix-like power OF
raising himself from his ashes.
Smother him up a. you like, multiply
him by any group Of his fellow figures,
until his identity Is completely lost, and
he will bob up again, IL not In shape, at
least In spirit-nay, substancs-as the sum
OF the result obtained by the process Of
multiplication. Thus-twice . are 10;
add the and the s together and you get
8. So for example, II mines are 163, which
added together, make 10, or 1913 mines
makes 1,242, and thus be pops up again In
different form, but the same sell. assertive
little chap. The only exception is when
applied to II or multiplies of II, when the
little joker comes in pairs, as witness
the following 80 mines giving 297, etc.

/ was talking with one of the English
professors at Harvard the other day about
his department, and he told me of an
amusing mistake made by one of the
students. All juniors are required to write
forensics on prescribed subjects. One Of
the most recent subjects given out was
"Shall the Electoral College be Abof-
ished?" This, he thought, was Q perfectly
plain subject, excellently suited for dis
cussion, SO he was somewhat surprised to
have one student come up and tell
him that 1t gave no chance what
ever for argument. "Why notY'
asked the instructor. ~ think there Ii
great deal to be said on both sides"
WE'LL" answered the student, !" can't
see how you, Harvard professor and .
Harvard graduate, can see any argument
to prove that colleges with the elective
system should be abolished Another
story IL going the rounds OF Harvard, ana
this time the joke is on the professor
himself. He is very forgetful man, and
in calling the roll, although the class Il
small, still has to rely on printed list.
The other day he found, to his dismay,
that he had forgotten his list. What
should he dor The Office required re.
port Of the attendance at the lecture. He
could not remember the faces or names.
Ahai happy thought. Gentlemen,
there Is one seat empty" said he, will
the gentleman who is absent kindly tell
me his me.'-Boston News.

= Lonx-p,.,anee Photograpnx,

1t is said that long distance photog-
raphy is rendered quite success by the
new camera with a telescope objective of
DIR. Adolf Miethe. The object consists Of
a convex lens of considerable length Of
focus and concave lens OF short focus.
These are placed a certain distance apart,
depending on the difference of the two
,foci BY the laws OF optics this arrange
ment projects an inverted image of an
object a long distance from the lenses.
The size OF the object is greater the nearer
the lenses are together and thu greater the
difference between the foci. To obtain
good images the lenses are of special form
and achromatic. The whole camera looks
like Galilean telescope. By substituting
an ordinary opera glass for the objective
on the camera and drawing IL out, = fairly
good picture will be obtained on the
ground glass OF the camera. Excellent
detail photographs Of parts OF the City d
4 Potsdam have been taken by DR.. Miethe's
/ apparatus two miles away.-Invention.

GOOD IN. Earthyyor,n Does.

"The earthworm performs very inn
portant part in the economy of nature"
said Prof. Ernest Parker, Of Nashville,
Tenn, at the Southern. THE little
creature is the worst despised of all ami
mai life, but from recent discoveries of
my own, after long and patient investiga-
tion, he has gained my respect, and want
to extend to him assurances of my most
distinguished consideration. l have found
out that but for the earthworm's hum
BILE and indefatigable toll very little
of vegetation would grow except by
irrigation. He is the greatest producer
OF moisture and heat in the world. He
does more than the ploughshare to dis
turb the latent heat and moisture of the
earth and bring them to the top soil to
vitalize and invigorate the struggling
roots of the grasses, grains and other
forms Of vegetation But for him great
stretches of the Western agricultural
lands would become vast deserts. There
fore, all hail to the earthworm and bad
luck to the man who thinks he is At only
for fish baitr"-Globe-De Democrat.

+, A curious custom prevails at Huay-
ming hsien, in Kwangsi. On the fifteenth
day OF the first month in each year all the
young ladies and gentlemen take a walk
to the Yen-yen Mountain. Each damsel
carries little box which, she deposits at
the foot of the hill. Any young gentle
man desirious of entering the bonds OF
matrimony may select one Of the boxes
and take it away with him, whereupon
the fair owner Of the box makes herself
known, and an acquaintance il thus
formed. Ill-assorted marriages are moi
likely to occur, ssthiscustom Is only OBJ
served among theNwell-to-do classes Of

The Mvsterious Addition.

Take handful OF coins or counters,
and invite another person to do the same,
and you can readily ascertain, privately,
whether the number he has taken is odd
or even. The secret lies in the simple
arithmetical fact, that II you add an odd
number to an even number the result
will be odd, II you add an odd number to
an odd number the result will be even.
