No Sign Of Bravery.

was sitting so that his back might rest against
the fish house. His companion sat by mend

me what uncommon poor policy it is TO be too

gives the further information that the
visitor would be required to spend $50 for

after paying half dollar for general ad-
mission at the gate until his tour had
been completed Should he 90 out every

A Governor Who Has the Big Head.


Mr. Peunoyer. the governor Of Oregon.
has an idea apparently that he is much
bigger man than he really is. His reply
10 the courteous dispatch of Secretary
. Gresham calling his attention 10 the re
ports of the possibility of trouble in his
state. when the Chinese exclusion act
takes effect, seems to indicate that he
doesn't know the difference between
impudencc and selfrespecting iudepend-
enco, and that he regards boorshness as
a mark Of greatness There is no good
reason why Secretary Gresham should
not have sent him the dispatch. The
. secretary had information that an anti
Chinese outbreak throughout the Pacific
coast region was likely to occur within
a very few days and he considered it to
be his duty to warn the governors of all
the Pacific coast states of the threatened
danger. As far as known the governor of
Oregon is the only one Of them who sent
a rude response.
The Chinese exclusion act is a federal
law and the anti-C Chinese element on the
Pacific coast has regarded with impaticnce
and indignation the disposition of the
Chinese to ignore it. 1t is probable that
if Secretary Gresham had not
thought that there was danger of an at
tack upon the Chinese in several states
and felt that an emergency might arise in
which federal assistance would be re
quired he would not have appealed either
to the governor of Oregon or any other
governor to be on his guard. The dispatch
was so worded that it could not be con
strued as offensive in any particular, and
the purpose of it was so plainly for
the public good that no right
thinking man would take offense
at it. Gov. Pennoyer, however. is so
jealous of his dignity that he seems to be
always on the watch for something that
can be construed as offensive. He gained
some notoriety a year or so ago by refus-
ing to call on Gen. Harrison, who was
making a tour of the west. He said he
thought it was the Presidents duty to
call upon him. His dispatch to Secretary
Gresham may bring him little notoriety
1t will bring him no honor.

What They Called Their Husbands

They used to say that Mrs. Hayes would
call her husband Rutherford dear, - even if
she had been talking to a prince, and Mrs
Harrison had the same shrinking from the
cold and off1sh title Of the President,
though She eventually became accustomed to
saying it, says the Washington News. Mrs.
Mckee, on the other hand, always lovingly
said Father no matter TO whom she spoke.
In the immediate family Mrs, Russell Harri-
son was the only one who said the President
when speaking of him,
They have many presidents for not using
the title. for even that royal matrop Martha
Washington, always spoke of her husband as
Mr. Washington" Mrs. Cleveland never
fails, either in addressing or referring to her
husband, to call him the President" She
endeared herself to all Marylanders once by
saying to Robert Garrett who was about to
lead her into the ballroom in Baltimore ahead
of her husband:
The President always goes first, Mr.. Gar
rett,' and she did it in such a sweet way that
her escort did not consider it an unwelcOme
correction.
Mrs. Morton did clever thing early In her
career here to show what she considered to
he etiquette in this matter 1t was at a state
dinner she gave. Waiting until there was "A
lull in the conversation, she made some re
mark. and leaning slightly forward said
pointedly so that twothrds Of the guests

a bill to prevent imposition on pur-
chasers by manufacturers of canned
goods has been introduced in the Pennsyl-
vania legislature. 1t prohibits the sale
in the state of any canned fruit or vege-
tables which do not bear upon the label
the name of the Gamer and the date of
the packing. Supporters of the bill say
that it is common practice among can
neries to put fictitious names upon in
ferior goods, and real names only upon
choice articles. Through the forcing of
eanneries to put their names upon all
their output, any shortening in quality
or quantity of the goods might be traced
10 the responsible parties The demand
for the dating of cans arises from the fact
that timed vegetables deteriorate after a
certain lapse of time, and purchasers
have right to know the age of the stuff
they buy. 1t is very likely that the bill
viii be passed; and if it should southern
canueries might be affected. The canning
industry is growing rapidly in the south
ern states.

The Smaller was Not ANNOYED.

Another story was told at the club the other
night says the Boston Budget, about prom
inent spread eagle speaker in the last cam
paign. 1t seems that he went down to Lynn
to make an address in favor of Cleveland.
During the speech he got warmed up and he
gan to saw the air with dramatic force. Sud
denly from the front of the hall came a long
infantie wall. The speaker continued speak
ing and the baby kept on crying. The mother
tried in vain to stop the noise but to no pur-
pose Then the speaker looked down upon the
mother and child and gave a grand flourish
My dear madam he said, with his hand
upon his breast why not let the dear baby
cry. lie Il soon stop He ism annoying me
in the least
The mother gave glance upward, then
looked at the waiting child
% isn't that, sir. It's you that's annoying
the baby"

A peculiar case under the immigration

Of German immigrants consisting of man,
wife and one young child were brought
over and permitted to land. Several
months later the husband died The i'm
migration authorities learned of the mans
death, and further, that the woman had
become pauper-a public charge-in
consequence. Under the law immigrants
who become public charges within a year
from the date of their entry into this
country, must be returned to Europe by
the steamship company that. brought
them across The authorities, therefore,
notified the company that brought the
woman that she must be taken back. In
the meantime the woman had given birth.
on American soil, to another child. 1t
was an American citizen, and by right of
birth was entitled to remain in the
country. But its mother was not. In the
absence of a ruling to cover such a case
the steamship company carried the
woman and her two children back to
Europe, at the same time notifying the
commissioner of immigration that the
deportation of an American citizen had
been ordered. The commissioner has
been asked to make ruling on the mat
ter as a guide for steamship companies in
future.

Emperor wilhelm and the Fair.

The announcement in a cable dispatch
that the Emperor of Germany was think
ing of visiting the fair has caused a good
deal of frothy talk in Chicago. The lead
ing fair officials and the principal hotel
keepers have been interviewed about it.,
and they say the emperor can be taken
care of in Chicago to his entire satisfac-
ton A private house could be rented for
him or he could have a whole floor of one
of the hig hotels, the landlords say, and
the fair managers are certain they could
make the visit pleasant for him, provided
the national government would lend them
a regiment of soldiers to keep the crowds
from jostling him.
However, there is hardly a possibility
that the emperor will come to this coun-
try to see the fair, or for any other pur-
pose. His time is fully occupied in attend
ing to his Official duties, and there is such
a restless feeling in Germany that he
wouldn't have much peace of mind while
out of his country. The emperor will
have to be content with pictures of the
fair and accounts of it IN the newspapers.

Satolli's Decisions Approved,

DIR. Leonard w. Bacon who during his
connection with the Independent Presby-
terrain church in this city, made many
friends here, has an article in the May
number of the Forum entitled 'An Amer
lean Viceroy from the Vatican" in
which he approves the decisions which
Apostolic Delegate Satolli has made
since he came TO this country. He re
CARDS the appointment of the apostolic
delegate as home rule for American
Catholics. He declares that those ''who
hold that the best of governments is a
benefcent despotism are likely to be
very much pleased because" says DIR.
Bacon, 1.-THE delegate seems to be a gen
tleman of the finest and most charming
qualities. Scholarship, eloquence, acute
ness, diplomatic address, social amenity
transformations simplicity, all of these
are ascribed to him, and no doubt with
justice. With these are combined an in
telligent and sympathetic admiration of
American institutions and American
character, and an immense faculty for
settling down to business" Further
along the doctor says the delegate has
subjects on which opinions were divided
in a somewhat irritated and acrimonious
way, and has settled them with swift
and slashing decisions from which there
is no appeal, in such wise as apparently
to make it impossible that they shall dis
turb the place of the church again" The
three. subjects to which the doctor
alludes are the school question, Cahensly-
ism and the rights of the inferior clergy
as against the bishops, and the doctor pc
CARDS it a matter for congra tulation that
they have all been settled on the liberal
side
The doctor thinks it took good deal of
courage on the part of the dele
gate to make the decision he did
on the school question. As he I'M
derstands it, the parish schools in future
have got to be run on the voluntary sys-
TEN, and Catholics can send their chill
dren to the public schools without any
apprehension of dictation from the clergy.
Differences between priests and bishops
are now adjusted promptly and the priest
is given just as patient hearing as the
bishop, and if he is in the right can de
pend upon being sustained. DR. Bacon
calls attention to the case of DIR. McGlynn,
who was restored to the priesthood be
cause there was no malice in what he
said and did, Notwithstanding the fact
that he 'hired a hall" and "sassed' the
archbishop.
DIR. Bacon thinks that "all patriotic
American Catholics must rejoice that the
impudent scheme of Cahenslyism' to per
petuate foreign language and race diver
sions in the United States by system of
separate hierarchies for the different
races of immigrants, is reprobated and
suppressed"
DIR. Bacon article would not, of course,
be like him if he did not take occasion
somewhere in it to say something intended
to be not altogether pleasing to the Cath
| Ole mind. At the close of his article he
wants to know if the whole tenor of Dele
| gate Satolli's decisions is not inconsistent
with "the solemnly declared principles of
| the Church of Rome" he is satisfied
/ that it is, but he takes the ground that it
doesn't make any difference whether it is
or not.

A more practical suggestion would be the es-

earning the salaries already paid.
