An Optimistic Frog.

Bishop E. r. Hendrix, the Missouri mem
Der of the Southern Methodist College of
Bishops, firmly believes that good story is
often the best means of illustrating point in
speech and of conveying a clearer meaning
than any phrase or sentence, SAYS the St
Louis Republic.
vt carried out this conviction in an address
he delivered at the reception given to the
College Of Bishops at ST. Johns church in St
LOn1s. He was encouraging the churches of
ST. Louis in their effort to raise a $3.50 900
church extension fund, and asserted that a
firm resolve and resOlute work with an opti-
mistic view to the future would accomplish
the purpose, ana to illustrate this said that a
mlikman was once approaching city with
milk to sell. Crossing brook he began mcdi-
tatin% and came to the conclusion that his
milk was too rich for city people. and dipped

Facts About Judge Longs Peasion.

The republican papers made great
cutlery a few days age when the commits
sioner of pensions suspended the pension
of Judge Long, one of the judges Of the
supreme court of Michigan. He draws a
pension of $72 a month The order
granting the pension states that he is
totally helpless and requires the regular
aid and attendance of another person.
Judge Long was severely wounded dur
ing the war, and to some extent is disabled
from the effects of his injuries, but he is
not totally helpless. He earns a salary
of 81 600
1t does not appear, however, that he
ever applied more than once for pension
and that was in 1884, and at that time he
was allowed $50 month. In August of 1854
his pension was increased to $50 a month
In 1889 his pension was rerated and made
So a month, the reratng extending
back ten years or more, thus giving
him a large lump sum in addition to
his regular pension.
1t is stated that Judge Long never ap-
piled regularly tor an increase of pension
or a rerating He wrote letter to Com
missioner Farmer requesting a rerating
and without any medical examination,
the request was granted.
In this loose way pensions were
granted under republican rule If the
pension laws had been complied with
strictly the annual pension charge would
now be many millions of dollars less than
it is
The examination of the pension list
that is now being made is imperatively
demanded. 1t should be as thorough as
it is possible to make it. Injustice
should be done no one, but those not en-
titled to pensions should be stricken
from the roll ana pensions that are
greater than the law authorizes should be
reduppd

The complications in the relations be-
tween France and siam have given Euro
pecan diplomats something 90 do and Euro
pecan papers something for news and
comment The impression is strong that
if hustIItics break out between France
ami siam. England, RUSSIA. China aud
perhaps Germany viii be drawn INTO the
trouble
The peremptory demand which
France has made upon Siam is out Of all
proportion 20 the injury France claims to
have suffered. For injuries to a number
of her citizens upon Siam territory. she
asks for half Of the rich Mekong valley
and 100000 francs.
siam, recognizing her inability TO cope
with SO great power as France, has an
nounced her willingness TO give up
about half as much territory rs France
wants and to pay 10000 francs, but she
wants Frances claim arbitrated and asks
that there shall be returned to her what
ever is left after the award is paid
Slams offer ought to be accepted as
satisfactory. 1t seems to be fair France,
however, doesn't intend to submit to an
arbitration She proposes to fix the
amount of her claim and collect it. peace
ably, if possible, forcibly. if necessary
Her announcement to the great powers
that she intends to declare blockade of
Slams ports shows that she is very much
in earnest
This aggressiveness on the part Of
France looks as if thequarrel that France
has picked with Siam is intended for po-
litical effect in the next French elections
The French government has not yet re-
covered from the blow it received when
the Panama canal scheme was shown 10
be ROTTEN, and it is asserted that the 81
amese affair was brought about to make
the French people forget the Panama
scandal, and at the same time gain credit
for the government by a brief, but bril-
liant campaign in Siam. How much
truth there is in this story it is impossible
TO say, but the course pursued by the
French government and press indicates
that there is a great deal
1t is not believed that France will be
permitted to carry out her plan. Both
England and China have a direct interest
in Siam, and it is expected that both of
these countries would lend Siam help
ing hand if she should refuse full com
pliance with Frances demand. Neither
Russia nor Germany has direct inter
est in the quarrel, but the belief is ex-
pressed that Russia would assist France
and that Germany and China would join
England in assisting Siam.
The refusal Of France to agree to an
arbitration has the tendency to create the
impression that she does not think she is
treating Siam with exact justice Her
haste shows she wants the affair settled
before England reaches a conclusion as to
the course she viii pursue in the matter
1t is within the bounds of probability
that this Siam trouble may be the start
ing point of a great war between Euro
pean powers so long predicted.
