The EVILS Of Sentimental Fiction.

The Evils of Sentimental Fiction.
The popular literature Of to-day
contains too many love stories OF u
certain sort. They are novels in
which the love OF men for women and
women for men is treated as though
it constituted the only element Of IN
terest in human life. Eliza Orchard
Conner called attention to grave
evil when, in her recent address be-
fore Sorosls, she said: The girl of
to-day soaks her brain in mawkish
sentimentality, as drunkard soaks
his in alcohol, until there isn't grain
Of sense left, and her emotions are
ready to gush out and slop over to
the first man that smiles on her. The
working girl dreams OF the hero that
will come along and lift her Que OF
her misery. But he doesn't come, be-
cause there isn't any such man. This
ls q strong statement, but it Is based
on the truth. The average love story.
although it may not contain an i'm
moral line in the ordinary sense OF
the term, is a pernicious distortion of
the life it processes to portray. The
men ofthis country are not divided
into two grand classes Of heroes and
villains.
There can be no objection to the
portrayal of love between the sexes
when il is done with reasonable fidel-
iLy to the facts. But the novels that
disregard the wide diversity of ele-
ments which go to make up human
life. and dwell on love and marriage
alone, ill the minds of young girls
with a set Of false ideas that FREE
quently do infinite harm in later life.
Fiction has an important place in
literature, and must continue to hold
it. But the young folks should read
more heathful fiction and less NOR
bidness and mawkishness.
Young women whose parents and
guardians keep them we'll supplied
with wholesome novels are not likely
to cultivate an appetite for trash
Novels Of action or of character, filled
with the breeze Of beautiful human
nature, are plentiful, if one will but
choose them. --Nes0 York Press.

The repeal OF the Sherman act
would have undone all Of John Sher-
mans deviltry about SILVER, and re-
stored the white metal to free coin
age. That was what was promised
by the democratic party. The repeal
Of the silver purchase clause Of the
Sherman act destroys silver. The
promise, therefore, was to afford free
silver coinage. The fullfillment was
10 demonetize silver. Yet some pap
ers have the tementy to assert that
the democratic platform was carried
out in what has just been acoomp-
lished by the demo'republican party
in repeating the silver purchase
clause of the Sherman act. The
statement is false. Alliance Herald.

REPUBLICANS are saying 1.-THE pop
ulist party has begun its decline"
We have heard this rumor LOCI times
within the last three years. When
first the rumor came we had but two
United States senators, eight con-
gressmen and 100000 voters. To-day
we have six senator's, twelve congress-
men and over 100000 voters. No,
thank you friends, the pops don't pro-
pose to decline. They may meet
with temporary check, but they are
not made of the kind of stock that
declines. Especially as just now they
are receiving recruits to their ranks

THE BOMB EXPLOSION DEVELOPMENTS
MADRID, June 22.-Ohicial investi-
CATION OF the bomb explosion at the
residence of Senior Castolli led to the
discovery of plot that embraces an
archists in several European count
ries. Officials are endeavoring to
ascertain the names of all those i'm
plicated in the affair. Twenty-three
arrests have already been made and
others are expected shortly. Suarez,
the man badly injured by the explo.
sion and captured before he could
escape, has already made admissions
showing the conspiracy had wide
ramifications. He has also told the
police the name of the man who was
blown to pieces. Among other things
Suarez told that he and several COM
rades were the authors of the explo-
sion, that occurred on June II, in
Plaza Oriental, directly in front of the
left wing of the royal palace. Letters
seized show the conspiracy to,be inter.
national. They cover details of plains
for the commission of dynamite out
RACES in Madrid, Valencia, Brussels
and other foreign cities. The man
killed by the explosion il not the well
known anarchist Ernesto Alvarez, but
was named Ruiz. When the police
knew that Alvaraz was not dead
search was made for him and he was
taken into custody.

The effort of Judge Bell to avert
the war, under the circumstances
was perhaps the most heroic act of his
life, and manifested self sacrifice and
patriotism which could not be sus.

For his devotion to duty, high char

his memory and would perpetuate it.
The sketch of his life and character
presented reflects Truly the man as he
was, and his published opinions are a
part of the judicial history of the state
which will remain as monuments OF
his learning, ability and integrity, to
be read and admired as long as the re-

We tender to the bereaved family
our warmest sympathy and direct
that the proceedings of the day be
spread on the minutes of this court as
a tribute to his memory.

A QUEER HALLUCINATI0N.
A Galveston Lady Imagines Enemies are
Trying to Kill Her.

A Galveston Lady Imagines Enemies are
Trying to Kill Her.
GALVESTON, June 22-Mrs. Kenne.
dy, Formerly of Huntsville, Tex, but
now of this city, is possessed with the
hallucination that she is followed by
parties who are seeking to blow her
up with an Internal machine. Today
she telephoned the police station and
requested that an officer he sent to
her residence at once. When the Of
ficer arrived he was met and ushered
into the parlor by large fine looking
lady about 60 years of age, who held
in her hand bunch of circulars, one
of which she handed to the officer
with the request to read. 1t was as fol-
lows:
"Reward!!! 500 Will be paid for
men and women who have machine
which is filled with powder and dyna-
mite. This is blown into private
houses and citizens with the intention
of murder. Electricity is also used in
this machine. They place the ma.
chine in the mouth so as to throw the
voice blocks away. Signed DR.. N.
b. Kennedy, Mrs. s. w. LeKennedy,
North Galveston, Tex"
When asked by the officer what
the circular had TO do with his call,
Mrs. Kenndy replied she wanted
those men and women who had these
h ,1o t.,I
following her from point to point for
the purpose of blowing her up. When
asked to describe the machine she
could not do it, but she knew there
was machine and people trying to
work it on her. She did not know the
people nor why they wanted to kill
her. She also said two shots were
fired into the window blinds Tuesday
night by white man and negro, but
could not show the officer where the
shots took effect and did not see the
men when they fired. That while she
was at the Beach hotel last night she
saw the flash of the electrical machine
and knew they were trying to kill
her. The officer told her ne would
thoroughly investigate the matter
and see that no harm came to her
This seemed to satisfy her. On all
other matters she is perfectly rational
She is lady of considerable wealth
and has flooded the country with Cir
culars similar to the one herein quot
ed. She came here few days ago
from North Galveston with the hope,
Ills she expressed it, of getting away
fsom the men and women who wanted
tS blow her up with their machines.
