PERSONAL POINTS.

A San Francisco music house has pub
lished Il number of Huni songs that DR..
Frank Cushing committed to memory
whiic he lived with that interesting
people. Some of the melodies are lul-
labies and lovers MARBLES and others
sacred religious songs which wore
taught DR.. Cushing while he was one OF
the high priests OF tho Zunis.
The car dislikes German so much
that he recently declined to answer n
Danish offices who addressed him in
that tongue until tho remarks were re-
peated to him in English. 1t might be
supposed that it would be relief to
him to hear few sentences in German
after listening to his native language
for q time.

late DR.. Jowett, OF Balliol, is that n

Desperate Poverty.

Theft is theft, morally and legally all
the world over, but frequently there
are mitigating circumstances. and there
never was more pathetic example of
this than the case of a twelvo-year-old
boy, who was before one OF the New
York courts the other day charged with
stealing piece OF brass, on which he
realized ninety-fve cents. The judge
was very stern, until the youth, with
tears rolling down his cheeks, told what
prompted him to the theft. His moth
or, widow, was sick unto death, aud
there was no money in the family purse
for medicine or food. The court, to DO
sure of the truth OF the statement, sent
an officer to the house. He soon re-
turned and whispered in tho judges

Tho Yankee sloop ViGilant gavo the
British cutter Valkyrie worse drub-
bing yesterday than she did on satur-
day, and there is moro reason for tho
eagle to scream. II there is to be an
international! yacht race with Uncle
Sam in the contest every American is
naturally on the side OF the boat that
flies his counry's colors.
Having won two races in succession
it is reasonable to suppose that the
Vigilant will win one more out OF the
five and that the much-prized Americas
cup will remain on this side OF the
ocean. Tho race is contest between
types and has more to do with construc-
ton than with handling.
Tho British are good sailors, but they
do not like to admit that they can be
taught anything in bodybuilding, al
though since these contests began they
have modified their ideas and yielded
something to the American model.
The logic of our American victories
has compelled our cousins to see merit
in our models. The other horn OF the
dilemma would be to admit that We are
better sailors; which admission would
break tho British, heart.

time Mr.. Cleveland, if he bothered his
head with those things, must have been
with his party in opposition to third
term. That was long before he had en-
tered on a second term.
Mr.. Cleveland has run thrice for the
presidency. Having been defeated once
the unsuccessful run doesn't count. A
third term campaign would be OF de-
cided interest, first to tho Democratic
party and, il successful before the con-
ventiOn, still more interesting to the
country.
Mr.. Cleveland may break the record
by being nominated fourth time.
Then would follow campaign o! such

Tho Rounding Springer and tho
Dough Face.
Ever since his party deposed him
from the head OF the ways and means
committee and from leadership in the
house Mr. Springer has given proof that
he is even more ready to take oGense
than ho used to be. He goes about the
J house hunting chance to pick quar-
rel and make himself unhappy. II he
can find nobody to hit him he takes a
melancholy delight in imagining that he
has been hit,
Now We behold him in 4 acutIle with
Boutellc, the hard-hitte- from Maine,
He was eager to have Boutelle fasten on
him the epithet dough face" so tina:
he might give public notice that nobody
can call him that and live. He should
have known his man better. Mr.. Bout
ellie is not afraid OF any living thing,
and nothing pleases him better than TO
have bout with man OF Mr.. Springer's
temperament aggravated by the humili-
alton which has recently come upon the
Illinois man.
Taken literally, to call man dough
face is to say that his face is made of
dough. Is this o scandalous accusation?
Taken in its historic sense and applied
to our own time, it serves to designate
and to difIerentiate those Americans
who consent that other Americans
shall be deprived of their right to vote,
rathor than by Directing to wound tho
highly refined susceptibilities of the
party and the partisans that profit by
the wrong. The dough face has mush
brain, u timsy backbone, aud sweats
| ice water.

Docs me Wand a rhIrd Term 3

A dreadful thought has taken hold of
some Democratic minds. This and that
are put together and the terrifying con.
clusion reached tina. Mr.. Cleveland
wants third term OF tho Presidency.
II is suspected in his own party that no
not only wants another term, but is
determined to have it, and is laying his
lines and, so far as he can, directing his
party policy accordingly.
There was time whom Mr.. Cleve-
land did not think well OF second
presidential term. That was before he
had had taste of one term. The Dem
ocro,ic party got rcd in the face when
third term for General Grant was be-
inc urged by his friends. About that

Then, again, as to its enormous

Its construction required three years.
The Ferris wheel was built in five

that Of the Niagara bridge. The st.

its weight is about equal to that Of tho
