A Feline AERIAL Artist.

Between you and me and the lamp post it
takes very little to please the public said o
veteran stage hand to New York Herald
writer the other day. 1.-THE sillier the play
or performance the more they laugh and seem
to enjoy it.
The other night one OF the stars of the
gymnastlc world, who was never known TO
create a laugh, tumbled to piece OF business
that has since made him one OF the most pop
ular Of the profession. His business was
simply to perform on the trapeze and make
the front
he was doing his act one night. as usual
when ne observed the stage cat walking along
one OF the beams overhead He didn't pay
much attention to the cat nor did the cat no
tice him.
He continuedhis gvrations in the air until
~ came time for his flying leap. Meantime
the cat mad climbed down part of the stage
settlng to fly that was loose and sat there
In full view Of the audience
Inc ny was little to one side of where
sne gymnast swung in preparing for his leap,
and as he passed he thought il would be a
good joke to seize the cat and take it along
WIN MIN. SO he reached out his arm. and
before the cat realized what had happened It
was accompanying him through the air,
The cat struggled so hard for liberty the
gymnasJ thought he had better drop 1t into
the net below, and he opened his arm. But
the cat wouldn't Jump
AS the gymnast had to land on his feet in
a net long way of he concluded he had

get rid of it, and he let go
ne landed all right, and the cat after
SIeduylng ITSELF calmly jumped from his

great amusement OF the audience.
Inc cat has since become accustomed to

Denends JDon MT Stevenson,

The eye of the country is now upon
Adlai f. Stevenson. Vice President of the
United States and president of the Sen
ate 1t depends upon him to say whether
the majority of the Senate shall govern
or whether the handful of extremists
from the silver states shall play the dog
in the manger to the representatives, of
the other states.
A thorough discussion of the whole sit
uation has made it plain that there is but
one way to break the deadlock in the
/ Senate and that is for the presiding Of
/ ticer to take the bit in his teeth" as the
/ correspondents are fond of expressing
/ it, and bring matters to a close by
| declining to recognize any senator for q
| dilatory motion The mode Cooperation, ac-
cording to an astute lawyer and thorough
parliamentarian, would be something
like this: The presiding officer would
decline to entertain dilatory motions, and
on appeals from his decision the ma
jority would sustain him. He would
then put vote ON the main question,
after disposing of the various amend
ments then before the house, without
recognizing any further motions to amend,
have the vote and majority recorded,
certify the bill to the President, which,
with his signature, would become a law,
although half the rules and customs of
the Senate may have been violated in
enacting it.
As to the legality of such action the
silver men might, as last resort, raise a
question. But the supreme court would
not take judicial notice of the rules of the
Senate, nor sit in review of the acts of the
presiding officer, so long as the constitu-
tional requirements as to legislation had
been satisfied, The rulings of the supreme
court during the last few years upon tariff
laws passed under Tom Reeds extraor-
binary quorum-counting rule is as good
precedents covering the point as could be
wished.
The anti-repeal senator's might exert
themselves for awhile, after such action
on the part of Mr. Stevenson, to embar-
rass him in the discharge of his duties
But the people of the country would up
hold him and the consciousness of a duty
well performed would help him to dis
arm their attacks. If there is any other
way out of the predicament it is not APP
parent. The majority have made an hon
est effort to legislate in the Senate's
customary manner, and finding that i'm
possible, have discussed compromises.
There was never a time it is true, at
which it was even probable that com
promise would be accepted by the admin
istration still members of the majority
discussed a compromise, SO as to be
thoroughly informed upon every phase of
the question. Having failed, ingloriously,
in arriving at a conclusion in the Gus
tomary manner, owing TO the Senates
stilted courtesy and useless rules, the
majority and the country at large are
now dependent upon the Vice President
to enforce an expression of their will

The ronlnn InlIiAnatinn.

The spectacle at. Toulon, France, the
night after the arrival of the Russian
squadron in port, was an extraordinary
one. The people of republican France
went simply wild over the representa-
tives Of autocratic Russia. Houses and
shops were brilliantly Illuminated during
the whole of the night, bands paraded the
streets playing Russian airs and the Mar
sellaise hymn, dancers came out before
the Russian officers and worked them
selves into delirious enthusiasm, women
embraced and kissed the cars officers
and sailors, and everybody shouted, Long
Live RUSSIA" Long Live the Carp
The sending of the Russian feet to
France was a political maneuver, to
show the world what good friends,
for fighting purposes, the two countries
are. And the world expected to see a
pompous display upon the arrival of the
ships. But it hardly expected to behold
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES who govern them
selves clarifying a despotism and the
car, and going wild with enthusiasm
over his Representatives. There is no
natural affinity between the two races of
people Indeed they are opposites to
one another-as totally different as are
their forms of government.
The only tie that can possibly bind
them together is their mutual desire to
whip all the rest of Europe. 1t must
have been this one fellow feeling, warmed
by the generous wine that flowed
all day and all night at Toulon, that led
the French and Russians to make such a
spectacle of themselves. The heads of
the triple alliance, instead of being
frightened at the demonstration, probably
INDUCED in a good laugh at it.

Before the Daybreak.
f. w. Bourdillon.

Before the daybreak shines a star
That in the day S full glory fades;
Too tiercely bright is the great light
That her pale-gleaming lamp upbraids.
Before the daybreak sings o bird
That stills her song at mornings light;
Too loud for her is the days stir,
The woodlands thousand tongued delight
All! great the honor is to shine
A light wherein no traveller errs;
And rich the prize, to rank divine
Among the worlds loud choristers.
But would be that paler star,
And would be that lonelier bird.
To shine with hope while hopes afar.
And sing Of love when loves unheard

There is probably only one democratic
candidate in the country who deserves to
be beaten, and he is the candidate oppos-
ing the reelection of Judge Gary to the
bench of the superior court of Cook
county Chicago, Illinois. Judge Gary
is the man who sentenced the Chicago
anarchists, recently pardoned by Gov.
Altgeld ana his opponent is a politician
who took a prominent part in moving for
their pardon. To defeat Gary and elect
the other man would be to indorse anar-
chy. Judge Gary, until this year, has,
since 1869, received both republican and
democratic nominations whenever he has
run for judicial place.

The old almanac Joke built on the
seidlitz powders and the man who swal-
lowed them one at time, was varied a
little in Brooklyn the other day, ending
in tragedy. An ignorant servant girl
was given one each of the familiar
blue and white papers and told to
take the powders in them. She
swallowed them one after the other.
The immediate effect can be imagined
A violent fit of coughing was brought on
which resulted in a fatal stroke of
apoplexy The doctor, who was called to
see her remarked the wonder was that
similar results of such mistakes by ignor-
ant people did not occur oftener.

Not to Be Compromised.

From the New York World (Dem.)
There are some things that do not admit of
compromise. The integrity of the union was
one Of them The right Of the majority to
rule is another. The honor and credit Of the
nation are in the same category. The ma
jority of the Senate should stand, TO the end
Of this congress if necessary, upon its right to
vote, and for the right of the people to have
their will embodied in law, In refusing COM
promise it is resisting revolution.

A Boston benevolent society has under
taken the work of assisting in the depor-
tation of consumptives unable to pay all
of their own expenses, to more favora BILE
climates. The harsh climate of Massa-
chusetts is peculiarly trying to the throat
and lungs, and the death rate from the
disease is far in excess of that from any
other cause. The Boston physicians have
been paying especial attention to it of
late, and the theory that consumption is
contagious is generally accepted. BY re-
moving eonsumptives, therefore, to a
milder and dryer climate not only will the
life of the patient be prolonged, but a
source of deadly peril removed from the
family Of the sufferer.
