HERE AT LAST
Something New Under the Sun-A
Novelty.

Every day the old saw is heard that 'there
is nOthlng new under the sum- I'm these
days or Improvement people become so ac-
customed TO innovations that they are prone
to accept everything new very much as a
matter OF course. In fact there Is very little
OF the Old time veneratiOn left In the Ameri-
can people. This may be, perhaps. because
nearly everything in vogue, in customs,
manners, dress, methods of travel con-
struction of buildings, both public and pri-
vate, multifarious ways of entertaining and
being entertained, and, in Short in almost
everything that goes to make up the daily
round OF existence Of the present time, is a
distinct change from what was in vogue two
generations since. So little, indeed, do the
American people care for things merely be-
cause they are old, the caterers to their
every want are under continual strain to
devise something new with which to satisfy
their Unsuitable demand for novelty.
In no calling is this endeavor to meet the
demand for something new more continu-
Gus and Imperative than in that which is de-
voted 10 providing the people with their
amusements of public kind. In the
theatre there is constant search for new
plays and new faces. In that still more
popular OF the peoples amusements, the
circus, the demand is not limited to new
plays and new faces. If it were it would be
comparatively easy task for the one or two
largest circus concerns. commanding as they
do almost limitless capital. and retaining in
their employ experts in every branch of
the amusement business. The requirements
or a concern of such extraordinary magni-
tude as the Adam Forepaugh Shows make
1t necessary for them to keep at least one
agent constantly in search of novelties in
l. 10 L., IL
1t is, of course, an enormously expensive
undertaking to keep this agent employed,
but 1t has to be done. Correspondence with
him is maintained altogether by telegraphic
cable, as any sort of novelty would escape
him If he had to wait upon the mails for ad-
vices. AT times it becomes necessary to
have several. The results of their labors
during the past year will be seen here with
their exhibit on Thursday, June %.

land is positively certain to increase

HOTEL. WALDORF.

Thirty-third street and Fifth avenue,
No other hotel in the world can compare
with this for splendid finish, and few
ducal or lordly mansions equal it. The
state dining room is paneled in solid ma
hogany Of the costliest kinds, and great
mahogany cabinets are filled with
George G. Boldt's priceless collection of
old china. The state bedchamber's gen
eral gorgeousness may be Judged from
the fact that So, 500 was paid for the bed
stead alone.
Mr.. Astor and his guests will occupy
the state suite Of rooms, so called, dur
ing some days, or possibly weeks, before
proceeding to Chicago, and it is expected
that the elite Of New York's "400" will
be entertained there during the time.
Previously, however, and the first great
event at the Hotel Waldorf, will be the
Grant birthday dinner on April 81,
at which President (then ex-President)
Harrison and many other distinguished
guests will be present. There are $50
rooms in the hotel, no two alike, among
them the finest cafe in the world, the
carving alone having cost 5000, and
chambers frescoed by the greatest artists.
And all this is done by a man whose
great-grandfather landed in New York

done wonders 1t seems to have been
the rule that every third or fourth cabi-
net is a predestined failure-at any rate
that its members fail to har1nonize-and
apparently the strength Of the president
has little or nothing to do with it. At
least two presidents Of the most pro-
nonnced views and aggressive talents
have had their cabinets go to pieces al
most as fast as they could form them,
and at least two others, supposed before
their accession to be mere compromise
timber" have had cabinets OF extraordi-
nary strength and held them we'll in
hand. But the reader may name the
cases for himself.
George Washington began with an at
tempt to form a nonpartisan cabinet,
with Hamilton and Knox, Federalists,
and Jefferson and Randolph Republic
ans Oemocrats:). It was not a SUCCESS.
Parties were forming, and by an unerring
popular instinct the one rallied to Hamil-
ton and the other to Jefferson. Hamilton
and |" said the latter, ''were matched
against each other like fighting cocks
and fought out every detail" Washing
ton had tact and forbearance enough,
but he could not drive fast and slow
horse in an even team. The situation be-
came intolerable, and on Jan. /, 1894, he
accepted Jefferson's resignation. Ed
mund Randolph went out the next day,
and thereafter the cabinet was for the
most part Federal.

fought his way in a few years to the front.
| heard good story of him the other day.
In his younger days he was school
teacher down in Georgia. A big, strap
ping fellow he was too. One day he
found it necessary to punish one OF the
lads, and he punished him in good rural
fashion. The boy went home and told
his father and his big brothers. and the
old man and the big boys, to the number
of three, went to the schoolhouse and
interrogated the teacher. Nothing daunt-
ed, that energetic individual turned in
and gave his visitors Il good thrasbing-
old man, eldest son, next Of age and all.
This incident gave Hoke Smith the So
briquet of 1.-THE fighting schoolteacher,
and he has been fighting ever since as
lawyer editor and politician.
OF the advisers selected by Mr.. Cleve-
land Messrs. Gresham. Carlisle and La
mont have displayed particular fitness
for the portfolios assigned to them, and
while the remaining members Of the cab
met have less familiarity with the duties
of executive office their general charac-
ters indicate the possession of the proper
qualifications.

lie is, like all his predecessors but
three, Of old English stock. The Gresh-
ANS came from England with grant OF
lands in what is now Kent county, Md,
and from this and other facts it is ill.,
ferred that they were a branch of the
noble Greshams, the most noted Of
whom was the Sir Thomas Gresham,
finance minister, or rather negotiating
agent, of Edward VI, Mary and Eliza
beth, and the first to set forth what is
called "Gresham's law" in finance. The
family scattered, of course, in America,
and Walter Quinton Gresham was born

He gained but an imperfect education in
early life, studied law. was elected to the
legislature in 1860 and in August, 1861,
was commissioned lieutenant colonel Of
the Thirty eighth Indiana. He won the
rank Of brevet major general by good
service and returned to the law.
His career as judge, postmaster gen.
eral and for a few days secretary Of the
treasury in Arthur's cabinet, then as
Judge again and finally as candidate for
the Republican nomination for the presi-
dency are familiar to all Americans.
Hamilton, Gallatin, Walker, Guthrie,
Chase, McCulloch, Sherman, Window
and Manning have confessedly been our
great secretaries of the treasury, and
John Griffin Carlisle will have to meet
difficulties little if any less than most of
them encountered. 1t is very encour-
aging fact that all parties express great
confidence i'll his ability to meet them.
1t is funny fact that though the sec
retary of the treasury has far more pat
ronage. measured by money values, than
any other cabinet official, and despite re-
peated warnings patronage is still held
as the stepping stone thereto, no secre-
tary of the treasury has ever become
president.

The statue represents woman stand
ing in the PROV of boat, with right
hand uplifted and left holding banner,
the general pose that of one calling on
her people to go forward and upward.
The Prov of the boat is given fine To-
cal touch by having the fgurehead rep
resent '.Old Abe" the famous war eagle
of the Eighth Wisconsin infantry. Th'
statue is about feet high and Of pu1,
white Vermont marble. The base is o
Wisconsin granite.
The figure has been highly praised by
artists as showing both grace and
strength. The drapery is blown hackin
such a way as to suggest the rapid pas
sage of the boat through the water, and
the womans eyes seem fixed i'll eager en-
pectancy upon some commanding point
on the shore. The strong will and hope
full spirit which have built mp the COM
monwealth of Wisconsin are fo.cibly
portrayed, and yet with no sacrifice of
womanly grace either in outline CT atti-
tude.

If this were history of cabinets, some
curious and to many people startling
facts might be given. One is the gem
orally admitted fact that Franklin
Pierce, probably the most obscure man
ever nominated for the presidency, had
the greatest success with his cabinet.
Other presidents have of course sustained
as pleasant relations with theirs, and
some have made more brilliant records,
but President Pierce not only lived on
terms Of cordial, almost affectionate, as
sociation with his secretaries, but re-
tanned their warmest regards till death
separated them, and some Of them be-
came quite famous. In truth, President
Pierce's personal attachment to Secre-
tary Davis caused him no little trouble.
The fact that Jefferson Davis after
ward organized an ''unpleasantness
must not make us forget that he was a
remarkable success as secretary of war
James Guthrie was equally successful in
the treasury, and William L. Marcy's
fame as secretary of state is fixed for all
time. Martin Van Buren and Millard
Fillmore also lived in very pleasant rela-
tions with their cabinets, but both were
men with whom any gentleman could
live pleasantly. Andrew Jacksons po-
itical household, on the other hand, was
a continuing storm center. 1t is very
curious history this of cabinet relations.

Onyx In Western Tennessee.

What are said to be the largest and
finest onyx deposits in the world have re-
Gently been discovered in some caves in
the Cumberland mountains of west Ten
nessee. It has been known for some time
that there was a fine quality of onyx or
chalcedony there, but the mines or caves
have scarcely been touched. Recently
attention was brought to the existence Of
large caves in Anderson county, the roofs
Of which bristled with stalactites of onyx,
in some cases the columns reaching to
the floor of the cavern. The onyx in
these caves is wonderfully free from
blemishes, is richly colored and seems to
exist in unlimited quantity. Onyx is
formed by the drippings of limestone,
and in early stages looks like the prisms
of glass or frosted icicles hanging from
the roof, and countless ages must elapse
before even the smallest cone could form.
When the value Of these stones becomes
known to the world, Tennessee onyx will
be more widely known than Italian mar
BILE, but as yet only a few samples have
been taken out.

dimes at 6 on 1nacaroni and Wine. Meat
OF any kind he seldom touches. At mid

eats a piece Of Par1nesnn cheese He
