A PROMPT OPINION NEEDED.

On the eve of his departure for
Europe Col. Honey is beset with doubts
and fears.
The hope OF success that once inspired
him Is gone. and his imagination sees
the awful spectre of defeat so near that
even after the full weight of his person
ality has been exerted with the justices
to defer their decision he leaves with
his friends the parting injun ction that
II ION his arrival at Southampton he
shall find cablegram awaiting him
he will at once return to these planta-
tions. assume the helm of the ship of
state and guide 1t into the harbor OF
refuge within the Democratic party.
This is indeed evidence of extraordi-
nary graciousness on the colonel's part.
1t is not granted to everyone to be
able to forego trip abroad for the sake
of his party.
And yet there are other respects in
which the colonel is particularly fortu.
nate. II is not granted to every man
to assert himself as the apostle of econ.
omy, to keep an unlawful house in ses.
sion at an expense of $3.50 each day,
and to ask the supreme court to delay
its decision as to the Legality of that ses.
sion for over month and half, so
that If the decision should by mischance
be favorable his course viii have cost
the citizens about 5000.
To most men such plea for economy
would seem inconsistent. but 20 Colonel
Honey II is doubtless not so. His con-
fidence in the fawlessness OF his course-
is as supreme as his grsciousness in
offering to return at once IL occasion
requires.
There is one point above all others
that this almost insolent insincerity of
the Newport leader makes prominent.
II is an irrefutable argument to the
effect that If the supreme court intends

HIS HARD ROW,

seoetary Carlisle is having very
hard time with some of his subordi-
mates Some of the New York customs
officials have fatty refused to obey his
orders to testify before the select com.
mission that is examining the affairs Of
the New York custom house In tho in
terest Of the administr alton. This re-
fusal is based on claim that the COM
mission is not legally organized.
Postmaster Hart Of Boston now re-
fuses to obey an order from Secetary
Carlisle to discharge certain employees,
because he very pertinently says that it
is impossible to run fonr elevators with
one man.
Many evidences of Mr.. Carlisle's inept
methods, such as these, have recently
come to light which mako II apparent
that his official bed is assuredly not one
Of roses.
Mr.. Carlisle departs so far and so
radically from the straight and obvious
business course that wonder is excited
in all business circles Not only is his
financial policy at variance with COM
mon sense, but the detailed manage
mept of his office is so unique that it is
beginning to excite criticism of a seri-
ous nature.
1t is very evident that in putting Mr..
Carlisle in charge Of the treasury de-
partment the president made serious
mistake.

1t may be hard or it may
be quite the reverse, accord
ing as tho merchants decide
that it shall be.
Goods will be sold, and
those merchants who are will
ing to make a study OF the
situation and adopt extra
means to meet the exigency
will be able in the Fall to
congratulate themselves upon
the dull seasons business.
1t is merely a question of
advertising.
That's all.
The merchant who is
shrewd enough to determine
now to make a study of the
art Of telling people what he
has to sell and why it is for

to courageously apply known

"dull" Summer season as the

hot days of August.

lucky ones next Fall, and are
not'quite sure how they can
get there, the News will at

my own training has been q very

him, as he reflled his c~hurchwarden and
stretched himself at full length on his
sofa. "At 12i years of age I was ap-
prenticed to a photographer in Aberdeen.
I came to Edinburgh in 1851 and entered
the board Of trustees school Of painting
at the Royal institution on my twentieth
birthday. I started my artistic career
as a landscape painter and would have
secuted the idea of painting portraits.
However, I gradually came TO the
realization that as a rule the drawing in
landscape was very faulty and weak.
felt that a landscape painter should 60
in for a good figure education, and so be
able to draw anything. / therefore went
in carefully for that branch of art, re
turned to Aberdeen and began landscape
painting and occasional portraits. Grad
ually my portraits elbowed my land

how little command a man has over des-
tiny" thoughtfully remarked my host.
II don't regret it. Portrait painting has
been most interesting to me and has
brought me many friends. "-Cassellis.

the well known inventor of this city, was
n arried six years ago to Mrs. G. Wheel

After a ear of married life Mrs. White
went east and shortly after Mr. White
secured a divorce. In May last Mr..
White went to the worlds fair with an
individual exhibit consisting of an in
vention OF his own, and this exhibit at
tracted wide attention in the liberal arts

Wheeler, heard of his indisposition. She
went from her home in Ohio to Chicago
and nursed her former husband back
to health. They became lovers again,
and two weeks ago were married the
second time. They are now at home in
Yankton. Mrs. Wheeler is Dir. Whites
third and forth wife, and has been three
times a bride. Mr.. White is past seventy
years old and his bride has seen sixty.

Uomen should Try Raising yiolets.

Such has been the rage for violets this
season that the wholesale dealers have
hardly been able to supply the retailers,
who have paid as high as 81. rs a hundred
for them through Lent and have paid
since at times a penny apiece. Just be-
fore Easter one florist sold 1900 punches
in a single day. 1t seems to me there is
a suggestion in these facts for some re-
fined. capable woman, who would like to
add to her income. Ask any gardener,
and he viii tell you violets are easily
raised; that the forcing of them in frames
through the winter is not at all difficult.
and if one can carry the same direct to
the retailer during the busy season a big
profit is assured. What one can do an
other may attempt, and it is certain that
this season a certain clerk living in the
suburbs brought into the city every
morning freshly picked punches of vio-
lets which greatly increased his income.

The Hidden Life of n Man.

The young man who made an unhappy
marriage and was divorced was for years
a mystery to his creditors, because he
did not pay his debts, though he worked
hard day and night. His reputation in
that time suffered terribly, and he lost
caste with many people who had former
ly admired him. When the woman from
whom he had been divorced died some
time later from an overwhelmingly pain
full disease, he began to pay his debts.
There are exceedingly few people who
know that all the money which he could
earn he gave to make her life less mis-.
erable.-New York Tribune.

be that they read the accounts Of prize
