clist. When doing duty as a messenger
the dog wears a collar around his neck,
to which leather pouch is attached,
in which the dispatches are concealed.
The collar is numbered and bears also
the name of the army division to which
the dog is detailed. In war times this
name can be affixed in cipher, so that
the enemy may not be any the wiser
as To- the location of the division in
question, TO which the dog belongs,
should the dispatch fall into his hands.
Some of the best and strongest dogs
are detailed 10 the red cross division of

bered and valley regions, where they
are likely TO escape the eye of man,
especially after dark. When the dog
discovers.a wounded soldier he places
his twS fore paws on the body of the

A Burning Shame.

From the State Republican.
If the remarks recently credited to exGov.
Blair by the Detroit News were really made
by that gentleman, his friends and family
are far more blame worthy than is the vet
eran ex-governor himself. 1t is a great pity
that man who has, by virtue of his supe-
rior energy and ability, gained such an en-
viable position in a commonwealth as has
ex-Gov. Blair, could not have been protect
ed from such a pitiable exhibition of his
senility as was made in that alleged inter-
view. There is not line nor sentence in
it that sounds like anything ever uttered by
Gov. Blair when in full possession of his
mental powers. The statements of fact are
inaccurate, the conclusions puerie, and the
tone boorish.
In brief, it cannot but be painfully evident
to any intelligent reader of that interview
that it is either false, or that some uncon-
scionable person has taken an ignoble adj
vantage of the mental infrmities which
have come with advanced age to man who
was once the peer of any in his common
wealth, to expose him to ridicule for an ex-
tremely questionable political advantage.
Such is the view which will be generally
taken of those alleged utterances of Gov.
Blair. 1t is the charitable view, and the
record of the man admits of no other. 1t
was a shame-a burning shame-to thus
expose the senile weakness of such man
to the unsympathizing gaze of the members
of the party which he was largely instru-
mental in creating, and which has delight
ed to honor its old war governor with its
best gifts and its highest esteem. 1t was
the work of ghoul.

Agricultural College Presidency.

Some two or three months ago President
Clute, of the State Agricultural College,
presented his resignation, which was ac-
cepted by the Board of Control. Since this
time the Board has been casting about to
find man possessed with the necessary
qualifications for performing the varied
duties connected with the presidency of this
institution. About the first of the present
month Mr.. j. w. Simmons, Superintendent
of our public schools, received an invitation
from two members of the Board of Control
of the college to meet with the Board at its
session held in Lansing on Monday and
Tuesday of this week. Accepting this in
vitation, he found on the ground twenty or
more applicants for the position, from not
only Michigan, but from various parts of
the United States, as well. The Board was
unable to come to decision, and the mat
ter was laid over until their next meeting,
about July 10. The field of applicants has
been considerably narrowed, however, and
Mr.. Simmons name remains on the list vet
to be considered. The position is consid-
cred good one, paying $500 per year
besides furnishing house.
When Superintendent Simmons received
the invitation to meet the Board, he at
once asked the Board of Education here If
an acceptance of the invitation would be
considered discourteous to them. Their
consent was readily granted, and they have
united with many of the prominent business
men of the city in cordially endorsing Mr..
Simmons for the position. The invitation
from the Board came to Mr.. Simmons I'M
sought, and is an honor of which he may well
be proud. While our community would very
much regret losing him from our schools,
which he, has succeeded in bringing to such
a high state of perfection, we cannot fail to
recognize the superiority of the position re-
ferred to. Surely no better man can be
found for the Presidency of the College,
and the Board OF Control will do the entire
state great service il they succeed in |
securing j. w. Simmons for the position.

Republican victories from this time on
are the surest preventive against the execu-
ton of Democratic purposes and the whole
sale destruction of our Industries, to be fol-
lowed by the degradation of our labor.'
The national administration has done
nothing thus far except to create In the
minds of business men deep distrust.
The Democratic victory of 1892 has not
been able to bring the better times prom
ised. 1t has not been able TO maintain the
good times which were enjoyed everywhere
in this country on the day of the victory.
War is to be waged upon the pensioners
of this country. No honest man will object
to purging of this roll of all who are un'
worthily there. Every case must rest upon
its own facts.
1t should be remembered, too, that pen
sions are better than standing armies-are
less expensive and more American.

help inspire faith in the future and dispel

Dixon Pays His Respects to Tammany

NEW YORK, June 12.-The municipal
authorities of New York never received
more singing arraignment than they did
last night from Rev. Thomas Dixon, the CO.
laborer of DR.. Parkhurst. The subject OF
his sermon was "Official Corruption, or the
Supremacy of the Sums" Among other
things he said:
'The New York City government is the
most powerful coterie of organized crimi-
mails that ever dominated the life of any
people. We behold on the judges bench
a man who is about to be arrested for ras-
cality and who had become drunken loaf
er, who now receives a salary of $4,000
year. We have the great and only Paddy
Diver on the judges bench with his noted
companion.
1--WE have also on the judges bench the
distinguished ex-chairman of the board of
excise, a man whom l denounce from this
pulpit. This man during the tendency of
indictments for penitentiary offenses was
elevated by the present mayor of the city to
the position of Judge. He has shown since
his elevation to the judgeship that he Is
about as thoroughly fitted for the position
as would be any criminal who would be
taken from the stockades at Sing Sing and
placed upon the bench"
Mr.. Dixon also referred to Commissioner
j. j. Scannell and quoted an account of his
killing of Donohue and his acquittal on the
ground of emotional insanity. This ac-
count also referred to Richard Croker and
Edward S. Stokes, and attributed their
mutual friendship to their having sojourned

Hysteria In Man.

Until Charcot's time only woman
had hysteria. This privilege many
women took Care not to neglect, hys-
terra being speedy way of arriving
at some desired end. According to
Charcot, hysteria is more varied in
its manifestations than had been
hitherto recognized The tears and
swoons of women are merely that
sort of hysteria easily induced
through insufficient food, for phy.
sicians will admit that since it is nc
longer questionable to have q
healthy appetite hysteria is sensibly
diminished.
The hysteria of 1nen, according TIC
DR.. Charcot, takes the form of ex
cessive egotism. This, if unchecked,
passes into that form of self exalta,
ton which ahenists recognize as
mania, and the man has to be shut
up. The ravages of this sort of hys-
terra would be much more common
If 1T Were not that most of the vic
Tins belong to some domestic or So
clal circle that tends to keep down
this egotism, which is its first svnp-
tom. New York Sun.
