WHAT THE EDITORS SAY.
Avoiding a Worse Fate.

IIIII'II LI0IVFl'
Whatever wrecks Of reputation may
be strewn along the conrse of the Pan
anna canal scandal, it is evident that the
French people do not propose to open
the doors to sedition, anarchy or despot-
ism because Of the proved derelictioD Of
a few public men. The strong and
overwhelming vote of confidence in the
government which passed the Senate
yesterday is death blow to the hopes
Of agitators who are seeking to displace
the existing order of things 1T Paris.

Family Barnacies in the Senate.

It is solemn fact that nearly one
third of the members of the United
States senate employ their children or
their wives as private secretaries, and
a still larger number are said to have
one or more members Of their imme-
date family on the pay roll Of some one
one Of the government departments.
1t has come TO be such a common prac-
tice among the senators that nobody
pays any attention to it now.

An Intelligent Dog.

More than one story has been told of the
refusal on the part of dog who had been
entrusted with carrying a paper to his
master to take the wrong one when offered
to him. Such relations have generally
been received with degree of incredulity.
However, an English paper published in
Egypt, the Egyptian Gazette, tells a story
OF the kind with a Enthusiastically which
appears to enUitle it to credence
The paper says that one of its patrons in
Cairo regularly sent his dog, large and
very intelligent Russian hound, to get The
Gazette on its arrival from Alexandria.
The animal always carried coin in his
mouth with which to pay for the paper.
One day the dog came back without the
paper and with the coin still in his mouth.
This was good proof that the papers had
not been obtained and lost The gentle
man went to the newsdealer's to see what
had been the matter.
He found that the copies of the Egyp-
tian Gazette had all been sold very soon
after their arrival and that when the dog
came none was left. The dealer gave the
dog copy o. the Bosphore Egyptien, a
French paper, instead, but he absolutely
refused to receive it. Therefore the dealer
gave him back the coin and sent him home.
1t Is net to be supposed that the dog
could distingu sh by sight between a French
paper and an English paper, or indeed be-
tween any two newspapers of similar gen
eral appearance, but he had method of his
own of distinguishing them-by means of
the sense of sn ell

An Incident In the Crimean War

A mandate had gone forth to the effect
that certain suburb of Sebastopol should
be raided b. a select body of English. The
attack was to take place at midday, when
the enemy were at dinner.
The venture was so quickly executed that
1t was con pletely successful The occu-
pants of the cottages had fled, leaving their
dinners untouched on the table and the
canarles In their cages. In one cottage was
found child about 6 months old clothed
and asleep in its cradle
An officer carried away the little one as a
prisoner of war and sent the news of his
capture to headquarters. Word came at
once from Lord Raglan ordering that flag
OF truce should be sent out next morning
and that al possible search and INQUIRY
should be N ade for the mother of the child.
Some of the officers were amused that so
much trouble should be taken 4bout n
stray baby, but the chiefs orders had to be
obeyed.
No mother was forthcoming, however, to
acknowledge the lost wait But there was
woman in the rife brigade who had ba-
by few weeks old who was willing to I'M
dertake double duty. About three weeks
elapsed, and then Raglan the, Good sent
another mes sage to his staff, who had for
gotten all about the adopted child, direct
ing that inquiry be made after ''the mother
and her twins"
Word came back that the two children
were thriving admirably, but that the
mother herself looked worn and tired.
How many cows are thereY' asked Rag
Ian.
''One, sir" was the reply.
Then, said the self denying chief, send
the woman down a bottle of milk every
morning"

4 Story of a Princess.

An interesting story is told of Princess
May. Accompanied by a chaperon, she
was driving along quiet lane near Ham
mersmith, when they encountered coster-
monger whose cart, loaded with fruit and
vegetables, stood in the road while he was
mercilessly beating a miserable, half
starved donkey.
The princess gently demonstrated with
the man, but his only reply was oaths and
shower of vindictive blows on the poor
beasts back. She ordered her footman to
take the club from him, on which the cos
termonger shouted for policeman and in
sisted that the footman and 1.-The woman
should both be arrested-he for assault and
his mistress for adding and abetting' him.

The House Organization,

The outcome of the democratic
caucus of the national house of rep
resentatives at Washington Saturday
night was decidedly Il triumph for
Illinois. Mr.. Crisp, of Georgia. was
renominated for speaker by acclama-
tion; Mr.. Kerr, of Pennsylvania, for
clerk; Mr.. Dalton, of Indiana, for
postmaster, and Mr.. Hunt, of Ten
nessee, for door-keeper. The princi-
pal interest of the caucus centered on
the contest for sergeant-at-arms and
in the outcome of which the infu-
ence of National Committeeman
Cable was fully shown. General
Black. who had been selected by the
Illinois delegation, made the nomi-
mating speech. 1t was brief, but it
eloquently told of Mr.. Shows good
qualities and splendid qualifications
for the office. Mr.. Layton, of Ohio,
placed Yoder in nomination, and
then Tom johnson, of Ohio. arose
and seconded the nomination of the
Illinois candidate. He explained
that, although an Ohio member, he
was opposed to Yoder's election, and
that other members of the delegation
shared his sentiments. Mr.. Outh-
waite, of Ohio, followed in some
what lengthy speech, during which
he scored Yoder numerically.
johnson, the other Ohio man who
was a candidate, had retired from
the race, and Snow and Yoder had
the contest to themselves. AS the
fight went on in the caucus, Yoder
was busy in the Hobbies and OCCASION
ally retired to his headquarters in
the sergeant-at-arms' room for con-
sultation. Mr.. Snow calmly sat in
the room of the committee on naval
affairs surrounded by n few of his
Illinois friends, and although fire.
quent rumors of his success came
out while the vote proceeded he per-
mitted no congratulations. wait

some of the republican papers
down the district have not gotten
over the drubbing that Ben T. Cable
gave them in '90,and they continue to
yap about it, and the morning paper
published in this city continues to
diligently rehash all the malignity
they can manufacture. The opposi-
ton of such papers to Mr.. Cable now
will have about as much effect as ii
did three years ago.
