No sooner was our ports thrown open to
Immigrants than one Of the steamship lines
proposed to bring immigrants from the
cholera infected sections Of Russia by
roundabout wav. 1t is said the Hansa
line sent circulars to Russian villages to the
effect that immigrants from those localities
would not be permitted TO embark at Ham
burg, but that they could find transporta-
ton to this country by going to Antwerp.
1t is astonishing how much more important
few dollars are in the eyes of some than
human life.

Eli Perkins has been making jokes at the
expense Of railroad porters and the rest of
humanity for years. But he discovered
day or two ago that the porter is no joke.
He iran afoul" of one on a Chicago train
who not only refused to laugh at the proper
time, but refused to be bullied, with the re-
suit that Eli started in to give him drub-
bling. At the end of it the humorlst would
not have been recognized by his Oldest and
most constant joke; he was a wreck How
ever, he had pull" along with him, and
succeeded in securing the discharge OF the
porter. Eli, it will be remembered, lately
became a protectionist And he is now
more than ever believer in protection.

himself chairman of committee to select
a testimonial to the retiring warden, coolly
picked out headquarters aud hung up a
sign, No admittance,' which was duly re-
spected by the prison guards, is the most

1t is not believed that the attempt to blow
up the Ancini Mattel palace last Friday in
Rome with dynamite bomb was the re.
suit OF desire to inJure Hon. William Pot
ter, the American minister to Italy. Mr..
Potter resides in that palace, and at FIRST it
was thought that the purpose was to injure
him and his family because of the killing of
Italians in New Orleans, but investigation
showed that other attempts to blow up
the place have been made, and besides
other families reside In the palace.

One of the reasons given why planters
will plant more cotton this year than last,
notwithstanding the probability that big
crop will knock down the price of the staple,
is that the high price OF cotton seed enables
the planters to make cotton for lower
price than they could afford to when cotton
seed was thrown away. But is there any
certainty that the price of cotton seed will
be as high next season as it Is this?

Growing Interest in Better Roads.
For the first time in the history Of the gov
eminent there is an appropriation for the en-
couracement Of road making. The last
| congress appropriated $4,000 TO enable the
Secretary of Agriculture ''to make inquir-
les in regard to the systems Of road man
agement and To make Investigations in re-
gerd to the best method Of road making"
There Is nothing that Secretary Morton
can do that would be of greater benefit to
tue farming interests than to encourage the
making Of good roads. The benefit OF good
roads 10 the farmers of the south for in
stance, would be equal, annually, TO a cent
pound in the price OF cotton. The
saving to them in horse flesh, in
harness and wagons, 20 say nothing
Of the increase in the value OF their farms
and Of the pleasures Of driving upon hard,
smooth roads, would be far greater than
most farmers have any idea Of
II Secretary Morton does nothing else
than inspire the people in all parts Of the
country with a desire for good roads and
iuauRurate an era OF road-buiiding, he will
have accomplished more than any previous
Secretary Of Agriculture, and will make a
name that will be honored in every house
hold In the land.
The great need of the times is good roads.
Vast amounts Of money are spent every
year on the roads in every state, but little
or no permanent good is accomplished.
The roads are worked without any regard
to intelligent methods, and little more than
a temporary benefit is aimed at. Holes are
filed up and ridges are scraped down, but
the same work has to be done several times
a year, and even then the roads are barely
passable.
Let the Cleveland administration lead in
the movement in behalf Of good roads, and
if it does nothing else worthy Of considera-
ton it will 60 out of Office honored and re-

One incident happened in the early history Of

shrewdness and inge 1uity OF EDITOR stone, says
the Chicago POSt. There was in those days an
EoentnG Post, owned by the McMullen Bros.
They had one great fault which Stone quickly
detected. This was the habit of pillaging the
j clock edition Of the Neirs for special dis
patches, which were printed in the O'Clock
edition OF the Post es its own specials. Stone
decided to lay trap for them; 30 he wr { a
long bogus Dispatch AMI dated it as coming

Bulgarians. The Bulgarians were said TO be

The Washington correspondent of the
esteemed Baltimore american reports:
Another odd name has come up from
Georgia. Mr.. Potsdam Sans, who is
private secretary TO Gov. Northen, of
Georgia, to-day applied to Secretary of
State Gresham for appointment as consul
at Bangkok, Siam" 1t must be very
notifying TO a gentleman who speaks
the Persian language fluently" to have both
his name and his desires so incorrectly re-
ported. What do the natives of Siam know
of the Persian languagel What would it
profit a consul at Bangkok to be able to
rattle off Arabic lingual hteroglyphics like
a native of Teherap or AtlantaY Why
should an aspiring young man delve In
Sanskrit literature and lore, and train his
Georgian tongue to speak the Persian
language huently il he wished an appoint
ment in the land of singular twins and
white elephants3 Why, he simply wouldn't ;
AID the Washington correspondent should
have known that he wouldn't. The CORE
spoudent of the American has made On
egregious and inexcusable blunder. Let the
correspondent bear in mind hereafter
what language it is that Mr.. Sans speaks
tluently, and that his name is Stanhope,
not Potsdam-the very idea of Potsdam
speaking anything but German is ridiculous
and he will not again do the gentleman
such injustice.

Tho removal of Raum and Secretary La-
monts declaration Of independence are in
cidenis which give promise of pension
reforms The pension bureau is not con-
nected With Secretary Lamout's depart
ment, it is true; but his action in refusing
TO listen to the Influence committee of an
organization that makes pension demands
speciality will have god effect. 1t will
serve to warn all persons interested that
pulls" are no longer potent TO prevent the
working out Of needed reforms. at the
same time there is no reason for deserving
pensioners to feel apprehensive that their
interests may suffer under the new order of
things. Raum will be replaced by union
veteran, and the interest OF pensioners at
the Senate end OF the capitol will be looked
after by federal major generel-Senator
Palmer, chairman Of the Senate commit
tee on pensions. 1t is interesting to note,
by the way, that Chairman Palmer is not
IN favor OF the proposed change Of the pen
sion bureau from the interior department
to the war department. He thinks the sys.
tenn in use now is all right, in so far as the
system itself is concerned, but says it has
been much abused. These abuses, however,
can be reformed satisfactorily without such
radical changes as have been proposed.
Its very easy thing TO get married. In
many states jumping over broom stick
together is almost sufficient to make a man
and woman husband and wife A public
declaration of intention to live together as
man aud wife, constitutes, In some states, a
common law marriage. But the rule doesn't
work both ways. The Atlanta couple who
divorced themselves by advertisement will
not find getting unmarried quite 80 easy.
The laws permit the assuming of the re-
sponstoilities OF marriage in very slip
shod way, it is true. but they do not per-
NIT of their being so easily cast aside.

ca Cages Water Supply.

In view Of the fact that millions Of peo-
pie will visit Chicago between May and
Nov. OF this year the condition Of the
drinking water OF that city is O matter Of
the first importance. Il is admitted by the
Chicago papers that there was en- extraor-
binary amount Of typhoid fever IN the city
in the last three years The number of
deaths from that 81 ease was l, 900 in 1899.
l ,9y7 IN 1891 and 40 III 1892. No figures
are furnished for January and February Of
this year, but Chicago physician, in one
Of the papers Of that city, makes the state
ment that typhoid fever has entirely disap.
peared.
But if the cause of the disease was the con-
dition Of the water supply it is doubtful if
the statement of the physician is to be re-
lied upon. Until quite recently the city
obtained water from point two
miles out in the lake, and it
was generally admitted that the
sewage Of the city was carried that far
into the lake. The water was tainted with
sewage. The city, therefore, constructed
tunnel four miles from shore, and the
greater part of the water is now drawn
from JudC source.
The Chicago Tribune, however, tells the
people to boil the water before drinking It,
because the melting snow and high winds
have created current in the Chicago river,
into which the sewage of the city is
emptied, and the sewage Is carried four
miles into the lake. 1t seems, therefore,
that the people are still drinking water that
is tainted with sewage. In that event,
and if the tainted water is the cause Of the
typhoid fever. it is question whether the
fever has disappeared from Chicago.
Long before this Chicago should have ex-
tended the two mile tunnel to point at
least four miles from the shore or even far
Their. She certainly should draw her water
supply from point in the lake beyond the
danger line. II the impression gets abroad
that the city Is full of typhoid fever and
that her water supply is full Of disease
germs the attendance at the worlds fair
will fall far below the expected number.
People will not run the risk of an attack
from typhoid fever in order to see the fair.

Great attitudes furnish q eynnsglvr.
where the respiratory organs are compelled
TO be exercised, and, consequently become
larger and more efficient.
Altitude, also, prevents instead of inducing

fact has been well established by experience

A Good Reason.

When visitor overstays his welcome,
the people of New England say, "He makes
us twice glad-glad when he comes; glad
when he goes" A worthy citizen of West
field, Mass, once put it even more strongly
than that to a guest.
One of the Deweys Of Westfield removed
to the Black river country, but every fall
he was accustomed to bring his family back
to pay long visit to his well to do rela'
tives
On one occasion after prolonged stay
he was surprised to see his host in the cor
ner weeping.
"Why, Cousin Tim" said he what aila
you?"
You'll never come down to see me any
more" the host replied.
'Oh, yes, will, Cousin Tim. III surely
come next fall"
mo, you won't, Something tells me you
WON'T"
"Nonsense" snid the visitor. "What
has put such q notion into your hcads
Haven't we always come down and spent
the winter with ye? Come, cheerup, Coua.
in Timl Cheer up, and tell me what
makes you think So"
The grieving host blew his nose, wiped
his eyes, and turning his solemn face to his
sympathizing guest said, "'Cense You'll
never go away''-Youth's Companion.
