SPEAKER CRISP.
timely.

When Speaker Crisp was plain Repre-
sentative Crisp he was known as a silver
man. But he has apparently been con-
WINGED that the views entertained by plain
Representative Crisp were erroneous. The
fact that his conversion to tine single gold
standard policy was coincident with the
election of a gold man to the Presidency
on double standard platform may have
nothing to do with his change of views.
The truly wise man holds his belief SUBJ
ject to further enlightenment. The fact
that Speaker Crisp received the full party
vote indicates. if it does not prove. that, il
not truly WISE he is AS wise as IS consistent
with advancement.

TARIFF POSSIBILITIES.

Germany and Russia are at loggerheads
over an increased tariff, and good deal Of
friction, commercial as well as official,
must result. The changes are such that
the customs officers expect very active
duty on the frontiers, and they are to be
assisted by the army whenever occasion
arises TO use the persuasion Of force. The
army is to figure quite prominently both
on the Russian and German side. 1t will
JUDGED be we'll if the rival forces do not
come to blows on matters that have moth
ing to do with tariff. Germany is deter
mined to collect all the duties leviable
under the new arrangements. and perhaps
has 4 notion that the more unpleasan tness
there is the sooner will Russia be brought
TO an accommodating spirit in all things
desired. Russia Is engaged In negotiations
with Austria-Hungary for commercial
treaty, and already Germany is ready
with forecast that the results will be
disappointing. A war of tariffs is, how
ever, a very different thing from a coils
ion of hostile armies. The signs Of any
occasion Tor a rupture are not visible in
Europe, but the armies are ready, and the
desire OF peace is almost as eXhaustlng as
the calamity of conflict. On the Austrian
and Roumanian frontier the Russian divis-
ions and corps are stationed in great
strength. as II the explosion were to be
delivered in that quarter. Russia has lit
tie use for her vast army in the eastern
part of the country or in Asia, and, doubt
less, it is considered sound policy TO be as
near the danger line as possible whenever
a collision arises in Europe. Her army In
Poland is also large. Germany. Austria
and Roumania have consequently all to
take a hand in military concentration
likewise. and this part of Europe may be
described as vast camp.

part of machine at which they assisted
to turn the crank. Lincoln was strong
enough to let Seward. Stanton and Others
be great also. AS rule Lincoln admitted
that he had not much Influence with his
Cabinet officers. but there were times when
he asserted his authority. Mr.. Cleveland
is not exactly Lincoln in tractability,
and consequently he has to assert himself
oftener. Mr.. Carlisle will have to 90 a
long way back to find Cabinet officer
who became President Mr.. Blaine be-
came a candidate. but Mr.. Carlisle is no
more Blaine than Cleveland is Lincoln.

A SCHOOL TowN.--The Capital City

matters come up, annual meeting was

A Crime to Order Meat by Msil.

A singular official notice is adver-
tised in The Somerset County Ga
zette by the clerk to the trustees of
Taunton markets. After reciting
that persons have been in the habit
of sending orders for meat "by post
or otherwise" to farmers and parties
outside the town, and that meat so
ordered has been delivered in the
town, the notice declared that this
practice constitutes an illegal sale of
meat, "and all persons hereafter Of
tending as above will forthwith be
prosecuted by the trustees as the
law directs"

Sly Revenge.

The spectacle of great men at play
is always delightful to us who only
know them in their serious moods.
The artist Turner was an interesting
talker, and was not only prodigal of
interesting information, but of bril-
liant repartee.
He was once at a dinner party at
the poet Campbell's, and spoke of
art in such a way that his listeners
believed him to consider it superior
to all other professions. After this
the poet rose, and having alluded
with mock gravity to his friends
skill in vanishing painters as well
as painting proposed;
"The health of Mr.. Turner and the
worshipful company of painters and
GLACIERS"
Then Turner rose, and with equal
solemnity expressed his sense of the
honor he had received, made some
good humored illusions to "blotters
of foolscap whose works were appro-
priately bound in calf" and con
cluded by proposing in return:
The health of Mr.. Campbell and
the worshipful company of paper

Iuck in odd Numbers.

AS to the truth of the statement
that there is luck in odd numbers
we have no less an authority than
Rory O'More. Whether this express
sion means good or bad luck is not
certain, but the common assumption
is that good luck is what is meant,
as there Is probably not farmers
wife in New Jersey or Long Island
who would tempt fate by setting a
hen on an even number of eggs.
Numbers, both odd and even, have
been credited with mystic powers ca
pable of influencing the destinies of
mankind. 1t is possible that this be-
lief was due in the first instance to a
sense of awe and reverence with
which the laws of mathematics were
regarded by those too ignorant to
understand them.
The fact, too, that the third, fifth
or sixth note in an octave harmonizes
with the first may in some measure
account for the superstitious impor
tance with which these numbers
have been regarded. Two we have
always with us. 1t expresses the

Countermanding Orders.

During theyears of the Revolution
ary war the Rev. Samuel Buell. was
pastor of the Easthampton church,
on Long Island. He had been pastor
there great many years and had
gained wide influence.
While the English occupied the is
land Sir William Erskine was in COM
mand. Between the parson and the
military authorities a good under
standing was kept up in spite Of the
political hostility.
There is yet told story Of the
worthy parson to the effect that Sir
William once ordered a number of
the farmers of Easthampton to go
over to Southampton to do a certain
piece of work on the Sabbath. Be-
fore that day came around, however,
the commander happened to meet
the parson, and told him frankly
that he had ordered out his parish.
ioners on Sunday.
II know it, l know it," said the
parson; but, as it happens, I am
myself commander in chief on that
day, and have countermanded the
order"

agood natured laugh. Youths Com.
