Harmony and EruditiOn.

There is a popular fallacy among par
ents that harmony means erudition, and
erudition of SO abstruse a nature as to be
quite beyond the reach Of the every day
child and to be reserved for the later
years after he is grown up, if undertaken
at all, and then chiefly when the youth
or maiden has what is called talent. "
All. the much abused word! How glad
~ would all artists Danish it from the
vocabulary and from the ears of the
American child! Harmony is only gram
mar, and grammar Of such an entertain
ing kind that if rightly presented it is
fascinating, and of nature so essential
that the musical nonpossessor of it,
young Or old, is crippled. -Harper's Ba-
Ear

The Endemic of Liberty.

The idea embodied in American insti-
tutions is the most radical that ever took
the concrete shape of legislation. We
may say, without being charged with a
boastful spirit, that we have on the
whole the best government on the planet.
That is to say, the government which
offers the largest opportunities and pro-
duces the greatest amount of content
ment and prosperity.
1t is a good thing for 100000 Of our
citizens to visit Europe every summer in
order 10 compare the condition of affairs
abroad with that enjoyed at home. And
it is safe to assert that no man can travel
IN England or Germany OF Russia or
Italy without reaching the proud conclu-
sion that the American flag represents
more popular rights and a more advanced
political economy than any other strip of
bunting that floats in the breeze. The
tourist who reaches Sandy Hook after a
three or six months journey IN foreign
lands without having his pulse jump into
the nineties ought to have been born in
Nova Zembla or Timbuctoo.-Ne York

THE LEGEND OF EVIL.

This is the SOrrowful story
Told when the twilight fails,
And the monkeys walk together
Holding each others tails:
'Our fathers lived in the forest;
Foolish people were they.
They went down to the cortland
To teach the farmers to play.
'Our fathers friskcd in the 1nillet,
Our fathers hung in the branches,
Our fathers danced in the street.
''Then came the terrible farmers.
Nothing of play they knew.
Only they caught our fathers
And set them to labor too!
"Set them to work in the cortland,
With plows and sickles and fails;
Put them in mudwalled prisons
And cut off their beautiful tails!
''Now we can watch our fathers,
Sullen and bowed and old,
STOPPING over the millet,
Stirring the silly mold.
''Driving foolish furrow,
Mending a muddy yoke,
Sleeping in mudwalled prisons,
Sleeping their food in smoke.
1--WE may not speak to our fathers,
For if the farmers knew
They would come up to the forest
And set us to labor tool
This is the horrible story
Told as the twilight fails,
AS the monkeys walk together
Holding each others tails.
-Rudyard Kipling.

SILVER CONVENTION.
Allen w. Thurman, of Ohio, Unanimously
Chosen Chairman.

Allen w. Thurman, of Ohio, Unanimously
Chosen Chairman.
CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-The Craftsmanship
OF the silver convention was settled
last night by the selection Of n dark
horse, who has not figured TO any ex-
tent in the preliminary forecast and
discussion about the hotel corridors in
the person of Allan w. Thurman, of
Ohio, son Of ex-senator Allen G. Thur
man.
Early in the day Gen. Warner sent
out private call to the leaders Of the
various states to meet with him in con-
ference at the Palmer house. II was s
o'clock when the meeting opened in ex-
senator Tom 'Patterson's room, and
IL o'clock before IL adjourned. Among
those present were: Senator Stewart,
Senator Henry NJ Teller, ex-senator N.
r. Hall, of Colorado; G. w. Wilder, of
Denver; ex-Gov. Routt, of Colorado; A.

Dowen, Of Tennesseej Gov. Waite,
Chairman Kolb, OF the Alabama popu-
listsi ex-Congressman Bartine, of Ne
vada, and Congressman Swift of Idaho
ten. Warner presided and an in
formal expression of opinion followed
along the line that England, struggling
for the monetary supremacy OF the
world, had, ever since the Napoleonic
war, pressed the gold standard upon
the nations eff the earth until the con-
hict had narrowed down TO the United
state s, and now its demands had to be
che cked or absolute slavery TO English
influence must prevail.
The conference decided that no inter-
ference must be permitted in the con-
vention by men not in harmony with
free coinage at the standard of to 10,
and that this end might be accom-
plished 1t was decided TO support a per-
manent chairman and the unanimous
choice fell upon Mr.. Thurman, who was
designated as Sound TO the core"
As further precaution the confer
ence selected a committee on creden-
tials, composed of men from the yari-
ous states, who are familiar with the
Tree silver element, and no one will be
given seat as a delegate who is chal-
lenged by this committee. The follow
ing is the committee as suggested:

THE WICHITA ROBBERY.
Reason TO Think the Gang Planned to
Rob County Treasurer Doran.

Reason 10 Think the Gang Planned 70
Rob County Treasurer Doran.
WICHITA, Kan, Aug. AFTER two
full days OF hard work clew has been
found that may eventually lead to the
identity Of the men who robbed the
Pacific express wagon in the heart of
Wichita Saturday night. The clew
was furnished by County Treasurer
John A. Doran.
At o'clock every afternoon the
treasurer puts the receipts for the day
into u shot sack and takes Il TO the
bank. He usually walks the entire
distance, which is four blocks. Satur-
day afternoon, while making up his
cash, he noticed an unknown
man lurking in the corridors of
the building and apparently watch
ing him, but he paid no attention
TO II at the time. When Mr..
Doran left the building the suspicious
character appeared on the front steps
OF the courthouse and nodded TO man
across the street. The latter unhitohed
a horse and buggy and drove south
distance Of half a block, when he over
took Mr.. Doran and, addressing him
Familiarity as Johnnie, invited him TO
ride down town with him.
Mr.. Doran knows nearly everybody
In this county, and the fact that an abb
solute stranger addressed him so fami-
liarly aroused his suspicious The
stranger further pressed him TO ride
with him, but Doran cut him off with
n curt answer and just then stopped a
street car and rode down town in IL.
II was undoubtedly planned to get
Doran into the buggy, drive down a
side street into the Missouri Pacific
yards and rob him. lie had in his pos
session at the time $40, roo. Doran gave
n good description of the man and the
sheriff's end Of the official force is look
Ing him up and are almost sure that
the same man robbed the EXPRESS wagon. |

A MIDNIGHT CRIME.
A Telegraph Operator Shot Through the
Neck by "a Providing Villain.

A Telegraph Operator Shot Through the
Neck by u Providing Villain.
EMPoRIA, Kan, Aug. AT the little
station of Saffordsville, ten miles west
of here, on the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe railroad, at about l2 o'clock
Sunday night, the operator, J. NJ. Fish
back, while reading book, was
startled to hear the command in a
gruff voice, Hold up your hands" On
turning he saw n man with his face
covered with handkerchief and
leveled revolver, which, with
out further warning, was dis.
charged within few inches of
fishback's face The ball entered his
neck, passing through his windpipe.
The operator fell forward upon his
face and head, and after lying thus for
what he thinks was but few moments
recovered consciousness and succeeded
in staggering about a couple Of blocks
TO the home Of the day operator, where
he tainted on the doorstep Word was
sent to Emporia and an engine and car
sent for the wounded man.
The superstition is that the villain is
a tramp, who was attempting to rob
the station, but who became frightened
by the result of his shot.
