IT is now fully assured that Daniel Morgan of the Connecticut senate is to be made U. s. treasurer. The qualification will be delayed for the reason that Sen ator Morgan's withdrawal from his pres ent position will leave the senate in con- trol of the republican party, though it is probable that pair on all political ques- tions could be arranged with some repub- lican senator, should Mir. Morgan request such courtesy, to enable him to fill at once the honorable position offered him.

One curious feature of the activity of the women in the Kansas municipal elec- tions last week is4the invariable disposi- tion shown to slaughter those of the sex who aspired to office: In a total of 10, 200 names in Kansas City, Kan, 3,O65 of which were women, the women candidate for mayor got 25 votes. The women run ming for office in most of the other towns fared likewise. This ought to rob wo- man suffrage of half it's terrors to some male minds.

Pansies will soon be set out in many front yards. Some plants will blossom continuously until July if planted where they will have shade at midday. The or dinary pansy is not the general favorite it once was, and does not command as high price as it did. The golden pansy is more popular than the dark -hued one, but perhaps there is no flower that has such sweet face or is more loved by the peo- pie to whom cultivated plants are rarity, than the modest little flower which as Ophelia said, is ''for thoughts"

NEARLY all of the 4,O00 men employed at the Chicago Exposition buildings went on a strike on Monday. Most of them have since resumed work. The strike was based on demand that non-union em- ployees be discharged, a condition pro- hibited, however, by the relations of con- tractors to government also expressly covered by the bargains made between eontl actors and employees. The strike had no basis to stand upon, and failed of it's object.

The street railroad bill, known as tn

The street railroad bill, known as the general electric bill," as reported Tues day, gives the local authorities power to direct where and how lines or extensions shall be built, requires a comparatively prompt use of, privileges granted, else they are forfeited, and holds the compa- nies responsible for the condition of their road beds and for damages to persons. The steam railroads are placated very thoroughly by regulations forbidding the carrying of freight save by special per- mission, or the running at over fifteen miles an hour, or the paralleling of any of their lines. The railroad commission CTS may suspend these regulations.

AT the Rhode Island state election last Wednesday there was no choice of state officers. The prohibition vote was larger than usual and the democratic candidates got a small plurality in the light vote given. The election, therefore, goes to the legislature, which is yet in doubt, many members being yet to be chosen in cases where no majority was obtained. So far the chances favor the republican control of the legislature, with consequent republican state officers.

THERE may be good reason for prohib-. iting electric railroads, under the general law proposed, from carrying merchandise or freight. The public is open to convic- tion on the subject, but until otherwise convinced the public is of opinion that the restriction is favored with the meanest principle of monopoly.

LAST Saturday was phenomenal day. By spells it was cool and hot, clear skies, alternated with tornado looking clouds racing across the sky, sometimes yellow, and frequently causing darkness that made need of artificial light. Repeated thunder showers passed over. The ground meantime was white with the heavy snow fall of Friday. In many places there were hail storms. Sunday again was a spring-like day, very little snow being in sight, but the grass looking as if it had highly enjoyed and thrived on this ''glori- ous climate of New England"

Mir. Wolfenbarge1, the national prohi- bition speaker, during the late campaign in Rhode Island said that the prohibition party was mot even a moral organiza- tion,'' but was stricly political associa- tion. He said that personal total abstf- hence was by no means necessary quail iffcation of consistent member of that party; on the contrary, he asserted that .sthe man who drinks every day and votes the prohibition ticket is a better temper ance man than the total abstainer who votes for either old party" Commenting on this the Westerly Weekly says: "A man who would indulge his own appetite, and attempt to make it necessary for his neighbor to violate a law in order to in dulge his, is certainly not very high up in the scale of humanity. In that idea is an element Of selfishness which comes near being condensed meanness.

President Clark, of the New Haven road, furnishes the information that in consolidating with the Old Colony the general plan proposed is that the steam ship lines shall ultimately be consoli- dated into the ownership of single com- pany, and that the railroad lines shall be divided so as to leave about one-half, or 75O miles, in each system. This will re- suit in the creation of what will be known as the Old Colony system east of New London, and the New Haven system west of New London, together making the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad. Local general freight and pas senger agents will have general charge oi the traffic over each system, and will be responsible to general officers, who will have jurisdiction over all.

Mohammedans Preparing for Religious
Sacrifice, Are Charged by Troops and
Many Killed.
RANGoON, June 25.-For several days
the Moslems have been preparing to cell
ebrate a religious festival to-day. This
morning they were forbidden by Mr..
Fleming, British Magistrate, to sacrifice
COW near the Hindoo temple. Mr..
Fleming had threatened yesterday to
issue this order, and the Mohammedans
were greatly excited before the hour for
the sacrifice.
When the police appeared near the
temple with the announcement the Ma
hommedsns began stoning them. The
police charged without firing, but the
MOhammedans held their ground stub
bornly and ionght back with sticks and
stones. Mr.. Fleming, who had gone TO
the spot as soon as trouble became i'm
minent, and several policemen were
wounded. The police withdrew, got
reiniorcements and charged again with
out effect Mr.. Fleming then ordered
them 10 fire.
The Yolley was delivered at close
quarters. Twenty Mahommedans fell
dead. and many more were wounded
severely. As the Mahommedans still
refused so disperse, the military were
called out. Four companies charged
on the double-Quic with fixed bayonets.
The MahOmmedans dispersed slowly and
still ighting, although many had been
wounded in the charge OF the troops.
They gathered again, however, In a
street a short distance from the tenn
pie They were hardly dispersed before
they reasSembled in another street. A
desultOry tight between them and the
troops has been IN progress all after
noon. All the military are occu-
pied in clearing the streets. Many
Mohomedans and HindOos have been
killed; scores have been wouRded.
Nevertheless, they show do signs Of
yielding, but as fast as they are driven
from one district, gather again in an
other. The regulars are regarded as
unequal to the work of subduing them,
and others have been called to help
clear the streets.
