Republican logic: The closeness
of the times this year is all
chargeable to the Democrats, while
the silver lining to the dark cloud,
that is fast showing itself to the
country, should be credited up in
the Republican column. If the
country this year is visited with a
destructive cyclone it will be the
fault of the Democratic admins
tration, while if, on the contrary,
we have no such mishap, and the
people of the country should be
prosperous, then the last Republic
can administration should receive
the thanks of the American people.

The Topeka Capital interviews a
Populist assessor who says: "Since
! have been engaged in the work of
assessing the railroads | find they
are assessed in excess of almost any
other class of property" This is
doubtless an honest fact. 1t is a
common thing for cities and coun-
ties to give "a bonus" to build a
railroad, and as soon as it reaches
them and begins business they
treat it as an open enemy and a
foreign corporation and pile on
every burthen the law allows.
Men whose lands have been doubled
in value because Of the railways
as is the case in Kansas-have been
loudest in denouncing railways as
inimical to the farmers interests.
It is high time that railroads were
given the honest treatment given
all other properties.

Enclisl, Women In Art Galleries.

A number Of highly educated English
women, mostly graduates of the univer-
sities and teachers of ancient art who
have high rank In their profession, are
giving lectures and lessons ON the works
of art in the London galleries. Women
and girls visiting the British and South
Kensington museums and the National
Gallery of Painting often fail to get the
benefit they ought from their opportuni-
ties because they have no one to guide
them in an intelligent or systematic see
ing. These lecturers take their follow
ers or classes through the galleries, dis
coursing on the different objects Of in
terest.
A lecturer at the National gallery
whose talks are said to be particularly
delightful, illustrates the technique and
history of painting, giving sketches of
the time that produced the works, bio
graphical sketches, discussing points of
art and answering questions. Another
very popular lecturer at the British
museum has arranged course of visits,
and for those who have the time and in
clination to be more thorough course
of Demonstrations" beginning with
Egyptian and ending with Greek and
Roman art, is given. Each period is il

1t would be hard to imagine con-
vention of men like the Chicago conven-
ton of women. How would it be posi-
BILE to bring together 500 clergymen and
play actors, musicians and politicians.
scientists and novelists, schoolteachers
and millionaires, artists and social econo-
mists, natives and foreigners, Christians
and Jews, Republicans, Democrats, Pop
ulists and Prohibitionists, for the pur-
pose of discussing those practical matters
i'll which all of them are interested?
1t is novel idea that the women have
illustrated in their Chicago convention
We guess that the women will have to
keep on illustrating it until the men are
able to comprehend it. We should like
to see a lot Of men of all sorts and sizes
try to carry it out once, just for the fun
of the thing. There shall be no bores or
cranks or bullies OF towards or humbugs
Or pretenders in the mems convention.
The very thought of mems convention
without such people in it is unthinkable.
Yet there were not any Of them in the
women's convention. All honor to wo-
men, the crown and glory of creation,

is the very essence of their souls.-New

Girls Who Don't Like Girls.

Haven't you seen handsome girl who
was all animation if there We're any
men about, but who became listless,
unhappy creature if she happened to be
thrown into the society Of her own sex
for an hour or two? The world is full of
such as she. They are usually very
pretty and very young. In the company
of men they are bright and interesting,
though they are never heard to utter one
good word about another girl. They re-
gard 1t as an awful bore to even be DO
lite to women and show their contempt
so openly that they are not sought for
by their own sex, and when the day
comes when they are willing to make
the advances they usually meet with a
very cold reception. At summer re-
sort where men are scarce they would
rather sit and fiirt with callow youth
10 years their junior than join q jolly
party of girls who find life well worth
living even though the masculine ele-
ment only enters into their existence on
Saturday nights.
No man is too insignificant for such o
girl to practice her coquetry upon. She
will fuss before the mirror just as long
for country boy of IA as for the city
man of the world, with years and for
tune at his back, but she will go about
with uncombed air, slippers down at the
heel and decidedly untidy gowns if she
does not expect to see man. Now, such
girls have no idea of the mistake they are
making.-Philadelphia Times.

I have always found very nutritive and
palatable the soup made by this formula:
After cutting the tender tips to serve as
petits pois, cut the rest of the stalks up
and boil in salted water until tender.
Bring to boil pints of new milk and
stir into this a teaspoonful of -four and
as much butter, which have been blended
together. Rub the asparagus through
o colander and add to the milk, simmer
about a quarter Of an hour, stirring goften.
Put some croutons in the bottom of the
soup tureen. Just before lifting from the
fire stir 8 tablespoonfuls of cream into
the soup. 1t must not boil after the
cream is added.-New York World.

A New womnn,s Kinudom.

Significant of several things is the or
ganization of a steamship company by
st. Louis women. The line is to oper-
ate between st. Louis and West Indian
ports. The ships are to be built under
the Lucas patents for an adjustable keel
on the flat bottomed river model, quail
flying 1t for ocean navigation. The value
of the device is not now in question.
The fact of its novelty and the radical
innovation it aspires to are, however,
significant.
Louis should have money enough of their
own to undertake an operation of finan-
cial weight is not significant. This state
of affairs prevails everywhere and always
has prevailed. What is nevis that such
body of women, in the absence of gen.
eral speculative excitement, should have
united to back an enterprise so strictly
commercial as the establishment Of a
steamship line. The new principle had
been rejected by men, yet the women
take it up under the lead of woman Of
O certain amount of scientific training.
Too much weight must not be given
to the fact that the men had rejected it,
for, as matter of fact, every innova-
tion and every intention have been re-
jected by men bred to the methods inno-
waited upon. The Lucas patent may
turn out foolishness, but should it turn
out to. be wisdom the event will show
that the women possessed more open
minds than the men.-New York Even

Club MeInhershin.

Club membership is valuable to women
in just so far as it ministers to a need,
supplies want or gives an inspiration,
and no further. To each member her
club should be training school. No
where is woman brought into such
sharp contrast with other women as in
her club. 1t should spur her to mental
effort, teach her the value of silence
when she does not understand the SUBJ
ject under discussion and show her the
propriety of having her thoughts in
hand before she seeks to give them ex-
preston. Club membership is valuable
to the member if 1t gives her that which
she finds nowhere else and which is nec-
essary to her best development If it is
q means to an end, it is valuable; if
itself the end, it is valueless.-Harper's

Ropes of Lilies.

AT q pretty dinner last week ropes of
lilies Of the valley wound in and out
among the covers and the service. In
stead of floral centerpiece there was a
large candelabruln set in o mat of these
dainty blossoms, which hid its base, and
from which went out to each lady's
cover broad white ribbon, silver edged,
on which was lettered her name In
front of her place the ribbon ended In
an exquisite silver wicker basket filed
with lilies of the valley, which as she
took up on leaving the table brought
also the ribbon scarf. At this dinner the
shades were white silk, and single can
dlesticks were everywhere on the table,
except in the center, where stood the

Following in the steps of the New

She still wanted to act, however, and he
made to her the proposition that he
would "star" her for 10 weeks, and that
if she were successful she should con-
tinue to act. If not, she should settle
down. She retired from the stage at

Mothers and Housekeepers.
A recent issue of the Paris Figaro de-
votes half column to an enthusiastic
account of a young American girl named
klumpke, who has won for herself rec
ognltion as one of the most learned as
tronomers and most indefatigable and
successful observers In France. Five
years ago she was received as pupil in
the observatoire. Since then few 9TH

institution, but she was the first to whom
the doors were opened and for a long time
she was the only one. Even yet she
alone has the right to call herself an as

sistants, attending to Photographic meas
urements and other mechanical work in

Miss Klumpke's labors are of quite a
different kind and consist entirely of
original information and research. AL
ready bachelor of science and soon to
be admitted to the doctorate, her zeal
and intelligence have won for her a high
ly privileged position. One of the two
great equatorials is reserved exclusively
for her use, and every day at noon, in
