MIR. Coclsrell replied tha, he knew when
this session began the distinguished gold
monometallists on tho other side would as
sumo the mastcrship nn1 leadership of the
democratic party, and that Mr.. Sherman
would head the procession for the pur-
pose of bringing the democratic party
back TO siugle gold standard. 1t
would be glorious achievement for
this distinguished Statesman to be
able to say that AFTER the lapse of twenty
years of one OF the fsrcest struggles the
world has ever seen he had brought the
dominant party down upon Us knees upon
his platform and made them readopt what
he had established in 1873 1t would be
plume in his crown. The senator from
Rhode Island (Aldricb) need not be uneasy
about his (Cockrclrs) getting OFF the plat
form. That question will not be determined
by the protectionist gold monometallist from
Rhode Island; not at all. A better and
no5ler class will determine that. 1t
is nico position; 1t is admirable.
He should think the world would stand
aghast in wonder and admiration when
IL beheld the scenes trauspiring in the sen
ate; when IL beheid the senator from Rhode
Island and the senator from Ohio and other
distinguished senators placing themselves in
the front ranks with tunes on their heads
as leaders of the derpoe attic party and de-
tenders of its platforl and its administra-
tion, and then turnl z somersaults, one
right after the other after the senator from
Ohio, to see which can drst ct through the
unconditional repeal Of heir own legislation,
of their own iniquitous and infamous legis-
lation.
At 3;25, upon motion OF Mr.. Voorhees,, the

Gated. When placed upon her feet she fell

A Stranger In the Land.

The refusal of the house of commons
to adjourn over Derby day recalled a
story related of one of the Roman Cath
olic peers who took their seats some four
or five years before the passage of the
first reform bill after an exclusion of a
century and half. Hegave notice that
on certain day he would make a GER
tain motion, whereupon there arose from
his noble colleagues general cry of
'Derby" The astonished novice named
another day, only to be greeted with an
equally unanimous expostulation of
"Oaks" At this he explained that he
would have to ask the forgiveness Of
lheir lordships, but having been educat-
I'd abroad he was forced to acknowledge
that he was not familiar with tho list of
saints days in the Anglican calendar.

Typewriting by Wire.

The telotype, or electrical typewriter,
has been designed to meet the require
ments of a rapid and reliable printing
telegraph instrument, which has long
been needed. This instrument is ma
nipulated very much in the same way as
typewriter. The transmitter as well
as the receiver makes a copy of the mes
sage, and the liability of mistakes is
thus largely decreased. The instruments
work in unison, and it is impossible to
send message from one machine unless
the corresponding machine at the end of
the distant line is properly receiving.

Senator Stanford's Regard For His Horses.
In employing men to work at Palo
Alto the late senator gave them the most
strict orders. They were told never to
strike, kick or whip horse, and his in
structions to his men We're; "Always do
a thing a little better than anybody else,
and you will succeed. When you han
die horse, treat him little better than
any one else. When you breed horse,
breed him to little better stock each
time"
1t was in this way that Stanford reyo-
lutionized the horse breeding of the coun-
try. He never allowed one of his men to
i'll use a horse, and they knew it. There
is never noise or blows around the Pa!o
Alto stables, and the horses are never
frightened. To show his feeling toward
his horses the late Henry Vrooman once
told of an occurrence when he was din
ing with Senator Stanford. just after
the dinner one of the drivers insisted
that he must see the senator. He was
ushered in, with blood over his face,
which was badly cut. John knocked me
down." explained the man, referring to
one of the trainers.
"What did you do? asked the senator.
Nothing" replied the man
But you must have done something

She Kissed the Negro.

In "Old Vienna" one of the most at
tractive features of Midway plaisance, a
strange incident was noticed. A native
of Abyssinia had entered the restaurant
and was seated at one of the tables. He
was tall and well formed. His hair fell
in ringlets upon his shoulders. He was
young and handsome, but black as night.
Presently pretty little Viennese wait
ing maid tripped up to where he sat,
reached down and gave him a ro1sing
kiss. There was great laughter all
around, and the handsome darby also
laughed, for he enjoyed the joke fully.
1t seems that the waiting maid had been
challenged by party of American visit
ors to kiss the swarthy stranger. She
accepted the challenge and won s.
thereby.
No woman who had lived any length
of time in this country would have done
that thing. The Viennese girl seemed to
have no suspicion of any indelicacy in
the act, and the fact that the victim to
her pleasantly was negro gave the ad
