THEY ARE NOT IN IT.

An article in the San Francisco call
intended to be an apostrophe to ''Women
in Politics is fat aud stale, for the
lack Of point and incident on which to
hang the tale AS a matter Of fact the
gentle creatures are not in politics.
They have no conception of politics or Of
political history. They have scarcely
advanced to that state where they think
they are in The Call says:
A meeting Of advanced thinkers of the
feminine gender was lately held at Bos-
ton to discuss the political issues of the
day. One lady read a paper on "Mc.

Republican party had gone to stay,
another on the question whether Cleve.

another on the prospects Of populsm,
and others on similar topics We are
told that the debates We're warm, and
that on most subjects new ideas were
evolved, from which IL was inferred
that men might have derived profit and
instruction from listening
Nobody would dare refer to sherman
or Carlisle as advanced thinkers, or con
slider It worthy of remark that Glad
stone or Caprvi had evolved new
IDEAS from which plain people could
gather instruction and inspiration
No statesman can be considered TO be
within the threshold Of political economy

principles Of that exact science to All

policy Of the past, present or future

THE Philadelphia Telegraph fops
around in an hysteric manner on the
curious proposition that the Southern
people should not honor the memory
of JEFF Davis because he betrayed and
reviled them and because he was a
coward. It may be that the Southern
people did not know JEFF Davis from
youth up, through three wars, as a
Senator. as their leader and then
as a modest, quiet, crushed and reviled old
man. But they think they do. Meantime if
the Telegraph will restrain its unseemly
bitterness while those brave people have
the poor privilege Of burying a hero who
did not draw a pension, 1t might read
enough American history TO know that
JEFF. Davis was not coward. But why
should the Telegraph be disturbedg II

senting the purest Anglo-saxon stock in
the world to-day are not loyal, for what

of East Boston did in the Suffolk pro

ance from her husband, John Sutton.
The box was IA inches long, 6 wide
and 3 deep, and was filled with hair.
Mrs. Sutton testified that her husband
In fits of rage had pulled out her hair,

The last commander in chief was Gen
eral Rutherfsrd B. Hayes.
The acting commander in chief is the
senior vice commander in chief, Admi-
raj John Jay Amy. Admiral Almy
has been on the naval list, active and re-
tired, over GA years. His age is 70. He
entered the service as midshipman at the
age of 10 and has cruised the wide world
over. General Walker and the Nicara-
qua fillibusters surrendered on board of
bis ship in 1857. He was at the siege Of
Vera Cruz and the capture of Tuxpan
In Mexico. During the civil war he
commanded the gunboat Connecticut
and distinguished himself by running
down and capturing four notorious
blockade runners and destroying four
others.
The present recorder in chief, Colonel
John p. Nicholson of the Pennsylvania
commandery, is the oldest officer in the
commandery in chief. He served as act
ing recorder in chief from 1879 To 1885,
and upon the organization of the COM
mandery in chief in the latter year he
was made recorder in chief and has held
the Office ever since. The Loyal legion
has distinguished itself above all other
veteran societies in the preparation and
preservation of historical records of the
war. Papers are read at every meeting
of the Communicates, and many of these
Of great value TO the student and his
torian have been printed. The Missouri
commandery has published a volume of
the papers read before it, and the Ohio
commandery some time ago began the
publication of series of volumes of war
sketches prepared by its members. The
Ohio commandery. considering the
length of its existence, is one of the
most fourishinS in the order. 1t was
organized in 1882 and numbers SS2 mem

8, 1898, ex-President Benjamin Harrison
was elected commander.
