Til. Queen noc>n1 Count In roli,ic>.

We are self governing country. The
occupant of the throne reiyns. but does
not rule. The queens political opinions
are her OWL They have no more to do
with those Of the electors than those Of
any other lady in the realm. Her maj
csty's subjects neither know nor. with
all respect he it said, care what she
thinks upon home rule or upon any
other political issue. On such matters
they tako the liberty to act upon their
own opinions. and no revolutionist can
do a worse service to the crown than by
attempting to make political party cap
ital by asserting that she favors one
party and disfavors another
In 1880 there We're many reasons why
the Tories were defeated. Not the least
of them was that Lord Beaconstield en-
deavored to convey an impression that
the queen was strongly opposed to their
defeat. Yet, unwarned by experience.
it is obvious that it is intended to appeal
TO the country to put an end to Mr..
Gladstone's government by asking it to
regard this government as injurious to
the queens health because she is SO fer.

a Tempest Over Rocking Chairs.

Boston is much stirred over the re-
fusal of the commissioners of public in
stitntions to accept Il present of rocking
chairs for the aged and inhrm pauper
women at Rainsior( island. A fund of
500 had been subscribed by private be-
nevolence. and the chairs had been
bought and shipped to the island. but
the commissioners, would not let the old
women have them. ;lnG they remain on
the wharf. The mayer of Boston. who
appoints TIE commissioners. wrote n note
requesting them To accept the chairs.
The commissioners still refused. and re-
fer1ed the matter To the common coun-
Gil. The common council soted mani-
mously i'll favor of accepting the chairs
and the aldermen concurrcl with only
one dissenting voter,
Strong pressure WAS. however. brought
to bean upon the council and aldermen
by the commissioners. Some of the
aldermen We're taken down the hnrbor
to Rainsiorl island and c;une back re-
porting that there was already one rock
ing chair for every three women. and
more Chairs would be Il needless luxury.
The result WAS that the council alul
aldermen We're induced to reconsider
their vote and refer the whole matter 10
the committee on public institutions,
which means s',esin" it indefinitely.
The lnsoent and unreasonable bela-
viol Of The commissioners is understood
to lie due 10 Il grndge against Mrs. Alice
n. Lincoln, who was active in raising
the money for the rocking chairs. and
who has aroused the ire of the commits

condition of the paupers and 10 reform

SarOnic Insurance.

The marine insurance companies on
this side OF the Atlantic have given up
all hope Of the Naronic. and the New
York Mutual and the Atlantic Mutual
insurance companies have begun to pay
off their policies on the Naronic's cargo.
Law and custom do not compel us
to pay until after a yearu and Il day" said
the president of the New York Mutual
Insurance company. but we are salts
fed that the Naronic is lost. The rule
on this side that marine insurance COM
panies should II pay for losses until
the lapse of II year and day sprang in
to existence in the days when there
were only sailing vessels. Then there
was good reason for the rule, but in
these days of steamships there can be no
reason for any such delay"
The president of the Atlantic Mutual
Insurance company said that they con-
sidered the vessel lost, and there was no
use of waiting longer to settle up with
the policy holders.

The late Colonel Elliott F. Shepard of
New York is gratefully remembered by
the congregation OF the First Presby-
terian church of Lafayette, Ind. He was
trainbound in that city one day, and on
inquiring his way to church boy
pointed out the First Presbyterian and
incidentally remarked that it was to be
sold for debt. This influenced Colonel
Shepard to attend services there, and he
dropped $50 bill on the contribution
plate. After the services lie made the
acquaintance of the pastor, and before
leaving the city he deposited with him Il
letter which he enjoined should not be
opened until the next Thursday evening

Thirty-three Senators Have

Consequently the Close Of the Debate on
the silver Question Is Far on
Vote BEFORE October.

WAsHINGToS. Sept. l2-There seems
to be little prospect of an early close to
the debate in the Senate on the repeal
bill. 1t is stated that thirty three sena
tors have arranged to speak. and ten or
dozen others may decide to take Il
hand before the conclusion Of the de-
bate. Should this prove true. it is more
than probable that snow will fly before
the matter is settled. George of Mis-
sissippi, Jones of Nevada and Daniel Of
Virginia each expect to speak two days.
and Morgan Of Alabama and Stewart of
Nevada each one day. Even if com
promise is ultimately agreed upon the
final vote will not be taken earlier than
the first week in October. The silver
senators still insist that vote cannot be
reached at all without cloture rule
Under the rules of the Senate there is
no provision whatever for shutting off
debate. and it is not probable that such
rules will be adopted now.

Rubinstein and the Deadhead.

Those whose mission in life it is to en-,
tertain the public are always pestered
by friends and acquaintance for free
seats at their entertainments. There
probably never was singer or an actor
or a pianist who was not bored nearly to
death by these people. many Of whom
had not the slightest claim to ask the
courtesy they demanded.
A pianist who was pre-eminently sue
cessful in his day, and that dar was not
far back either, was Rubinstein. who
Travelled nearly the whole world over de-
lighting peop.e with his genius. He.
like all others. was very much annoyed
by requests for complimentary tickets,
but most of the time he maintained his
composure. even though justly irritated.
1t is told Of him that just before one Of

by an old lady in the entrance hall and
thus addressed:
"Oh. Mr.. Rubinstein. | am so glad to
see you, l have tried in vain to pur.
