this committee are not (strictly speak
ing), fraudulent pensioners, although
they have drawn public money to
which they were not entitled. The
wrong was committed by Raum in so
constituting the law as to make them
eligible for pensions, and for that
reason it is not probable that any at
tempt will be made to recover the
money already paid to those who
have been or will be dropped, as will
be done in cases where the pensioner
got on the roll by fraudulent acts OF
his own.

NEARLY one million dollars in gold
started on its way westward from
Europe yesterday. This is not very
large amount, but it is worth while
noticing just to give an idea of the
direction in which the yellow stuff is
drifting. All must admit that this
great result has been brought about
by the magnificent courage Of one
man and his mistaken determination,
in the face of every obstacle and op-
position, to administer the affairs OF
that branch of the government, over
which he was called to preside, in the
interest of the whole people. Such
has been the course of Secretary
Carlisle in administering the affairs
of his Office at a most critical period
of financial depression.

SOME time ago the British parlia-
ment appointed committee to in
quire into the treatment Of habitual
drunkards. 1t is unanimous and
emphatic report, and proposes to
treat the habitual drunkard as if he
was an entirely irresponsible person
almost precisely as we now treat
lunatics. When brought before a
magistrate, he is not to be sentenced
TO jail FOR stated term, but to a
dipsomaniac asylum, there to he kept
until cured. But it is asked, il we
are to treat him in this fashion, what
becomes of the responsibility of the
drunkard for the injury, material
and moral, which he inficts upon
others and upon himself2 Can we at
the same time deal with him as if he
were lunatic, rob him of his liberty
for an indefinite period, though he
has committed no overt offence against
the law, and yet hold him in morals
strictly responsible for his excessH
This is a question much easier asked
than answered. Yet we might ask
the same question about the lunatic
who is confined and kept captive that
he may neither harm himself nor his
neiubbor

WHEN next pension day comes
around thrre will be some disagreea-
bly, surprised men, among those who
will apply for their checks at several
of the pension agencies throughout
the country. The failure to receive
the customary check will be the first
notice these men will have that they
have been dropped from the pension
roll as a result OF the examination
now being conducted by a select
committee Of examiners, of all the
pensions granted under Raum's con-
struction Of the act of 1890. AL
though this work has just commenc-
ed, many names have already been
dropped and many more will follow.

THE majority Of delegates in the
judicial convention at Little Rock,
today, are lawyers, and properly SO.
1t is not a case in which it may be
said that too many legal cooks spoil
the judicial broth. The men to be
selected are lawyers, the men delegat-
ed to make the selection are limbs Of
the law and the office to which the
candidates are nominated is one in
which the laws of the state are to be
construed. The whole affair has,
therefore, strictly legal aspect.

THE failure of the defense to put
Lizzie Borden on the stand, which
has been used by self constituted
jurles as a damning proof of her
guilt, did not surprise any lawyer or
other person versed in criminal law.
Every accused person has the right
to refuse to testify, and the law pro-
tects this right by providing that the
prosecution is not permitted to COM
ment on the fact, nor the jury to
draw any >unfavorable inference from
it. AS a correct principle of law this
proposition will not be questioned by
any intelligent well-read lawyer. But
then there are so many people who
doubt a thing simply because, through
ignorance, they fail to understand it.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the disease portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flamation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

some day be realized on n scale which may

A minute parallax Of about one.sixtieth
of a second of aro found for Aicturus by
DIR. Elkin gives a most astounding result.
The small parallax implies a distance from
the earth equal to about IL, 900, COO times the
SUMS distance. This vast distance would
produce a diminution of light of about
854 mnanitudes. 30 that the sun, placed at
the distance OF Arcturus, would DO reduced
TO q star of only nine and three-fourths
magnitudes. 1t would not be visible with
an opera glass. Aroturus il. therefore. in
round numbers nine and one-hnlf mapni-
tudes. or over 5000 times brighter than the
sun would be at the same distance.
Assuming the same density mud bright
ness of surface as the sun the diameter of
Arcturus would therefore be about seventy
min times the suns diameter. or over c., :
600. 900 of miles, md this mass about $780,
600 times the mass of the sun, figures we'll
calculated to staRQer Imagination" From
tie small value Of the parallax found for
Arcturus we cannot, of course. place very
much reliance on its accuracy. but there
can be little doubt that the distance of this
bright star ia really very great. and that,
consequently. it is a much larger sun than
ours. probably one of the most massive
bodies in the universe Gentleman's
