 Death hes again entered the
 family of pr. and Mrs. D. Pentland and this time has claimed Gertrude
 Eleanor, the second daughter, aged
 l3 years 10 months and 22 days. She was taken sick on Tuesday of last week, the day following the funeral of her little sister Charlotte but the disease seemed to be in a mild form until Sunday when more malignant symptoms developed and she grew rapidly worse until a quar- ter before 3 o'clock this morning q when death relieved her of her suferlngs and her spirit took it's light to the beyond where pain and suffering are unknown. She has realized for the past day or two that she could not live, and informtd q her parents so yesterday morning. In the evening she sent for her sis. ter Bertha and her brothers. who have been kept away from the house on account of the contagious nature of the disease, and while they stood al the gate in front of the house she was held up at the window and bade them all good bye. The funeral will take place tomorrow from the family residence in East Prescott at To o'clock a. m. Interment will be l the Masonic cemetry. The eldest daughter Minnie, is still critically ill and two physicians are now at Der bed side almost constantly an d have slight hopes of saving her life. While the bereaved relatives have the warmest sympathy of the ! community in their terrible aff1ic- tion, human sympathy in such case IS inadequate to restore heart 1 bowed down with the unspeakable l grief caused by the loss of two | precious ones, within so brief time. l and with another one one the very | brink of the other shore.

TO MIR. HELINSKI. POSTMASTER.

THE TIMES desires to convey its compli-
ments, and also q warm and hearty express
sion Of its most distinguished consideration
to Hon. Theodore Helinski, who has just been
appointed postmaster of Duluth. The lot of
the average postmaster is happy enough. He
is the loafing place, the common stock OF in
formation, the universal kicked-about OF the
city or the town. To the postmaster OF the
Zenith City OF the Unsalted Seas, however,
beautiful panorama of influence and useful
ness, and comfort, must open itself up. To be
sure. the postmaster of city of the magni-
tude of Duluth will be compelled continually
to "kick" to the department for more clerks,
more carriers more mails, more stamp-can-
ceiling machines, more money, more stamps,
more everything He will run across the red
tapeworm of the department, who will refer
his letters to some other red tapeworm, who
In turn will refer them to still third. But
the postmaster of Duluth, Mr.. Helinski. will
be, for four years at least, the leading citizen
of his Zenith City, and THE TIMES felicitates
him, felicitates the Zenith City, felicitates the
Unsalted Seas that Mr.. Cleveland and Mr..
Bissell. and doubtless Hon. Bob Maxwell, and
possibly Hon. Nathan Smith. also, have made
this selection with such wisdom and such
universal satisfaction in The TIMES Office.

Legislation for Coxeyites.

To the Editor Of THE TIMES:
The comments ON the Coxey movement by
three of the papers of Washington is certainly
ludicrous They began by ridiculing the idea
then they began to seold. then they got fright
ened and tried 20 scare the promoters by
threatening arrest then they began to yell for
help and now they frantically demand the pro-
lection of the regular troops and hug them
selves with the thought of how quickly these can
be mOboized. and they are saved from whatY
Why the visit of few lobbyists in favor OF n
bill for the issue of non-interest bearlng money,
to build good roads, and employ the uneln-
ployed Why don't they ask congress 10 pass u
bill as follows:
.Be it enacted by the Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States of America
in Congress assembled,
"That Il o person or persons snail pe permitted
to enter the District OF Columbia for the purpose
OF influencing the passage of any BILL act, or
measure pending in Congress and any person
who shall visit tie District of Columbia for the
purpose of urging the passage of or preventing
the passage of any bill, act or measure, shall be
deemed guilty of misdemeanor, etc"
Now this would be a simple solution of the diff
fculty. And when such bill came up before
Congress the following amendments would be
offered by different interests:
.slo insert after the word persons, in the
first line, the value Of whose properly is less
than 81 ,00O,0D
This would be amended by lowering the
amount to S100,0O0 and this reduction of the
limit would bring on sharp discussion.
A second amendment would be to insert after
the word perhaps" in the first line, who are
not able to pay their way and patronize the best
hotels"
The passage of this bill in Congress would soon
be followed by another, making IS crime and
misdemeanor in the District of Columbi2 for
any person to be found on the streets without
money, and any "person or persons looking for
work in said District shall be imprisoned in the
penitentiary not less than one year for said
crime"
These bills, think, would effectually settle
the question of such movements of Coxeys, a.
least until after the revolution which would fol
low them began. HAROLD

TUCKER. NOT REED.

Mr.. Wise Says John Randolph and Not
Thomas b. Originated Quorum counting.
Mr.. Wise made n speech in Congress yester-
day, in which he challenged the right OF Mr..
Reed to claim the credit for the idea OF count
ing members to make quorum.
The originator of that idea, he asserted,
was John Randolph Tucker, OF Virginia, who
fourteen years ago proposed modification to
the rules designed to take into account in
determining the presence of quorum OF
members present but refusing to vote. On
that occasion Mr.. Reed had with great We
hemence denounced the proposition. He had
urged that 1t was not the physical presence OF
majority Of the members which the Consti-
tuition contemplated as quorum, but a ma
jority present and participating, "a thing, I"
added Mr.. Wise, sarcastically, which Thomas
B. Reed hasn't done for q month";
"Did the Democratic Congress in 1880
adopt Mr.. fuckers rule?" asked Mr.. Gros-
venor (Rep. Obio.)
"The proposition was withdrawn" replied
Mr.. Wise. 81 simply desire now to strip your
leader OF the false colors under which he has
been sailing. On the occasion to which re-
fer" continued Mr.. Wise, ..Mr. Springer made
speech in favor Of the proposition"
''That accounts for its defeat" interjected
Mr.. Reed. amid laughter

BETTER BE CAREFUL THERE!

Fortunately for Coxey, he is now getting
within easy range. He may hear the report
of the small arms and can govern himself ac-
cordingly. 1t is also well that our citizens
and government officials are so clearly in
formed as to the ultimate fate impending over
this fantastic mission"
Fantastic" is good word. We like it. It
is resonant and mouth-illing! There is moth
ing better. There is no common, hard sense
in being hungry and out of work! And when
that fantastic condition has taken hold
of some millions of our population, what
more fantastic exhibit could be conceived
than tramp to Washington to ask the
paternal government why and wherefore?
Our own opinion is, the less said about our
military force that could be made available,
and of the complete and satisfactory prear-
ranged action for our shadow OF police
force, the better. We have much too high an
opinion of Major Moore to believe he is so well
satisfied as to what he will do. He is too
good soldier to publish his plans before the
situation presents itself. One blunder has
been made already. He will not be likely to
repeat the same line OF tactics. There are
several people now living who remember the
driving of six mule teams into the sacred
precincts of the Capitol grounds and the
loading up Of wagons with bread from under
the supporting arches! That was fantastic,
surely.
But we do not know what this Coxey
fantasy may develop OF new conditions. II
there ever was time, however, when men in
power should think deeply before they act or
speak, it is now. 1t is well to remember that
down under this boasted civilization of ours
we have the common human nature. Hunger
and conditions that are deemed unjust and
oppressive invariably develop the purely
animal instincts. An assemblage of these
embodied instincts is dangerous and un-
certain quantity to handle.
There is nothing so respectable as the man
who wants work yet cannot find it. There
h NO one so mistaken as the prosperous and
comfortable and busy person who does not
think that he would not fight if he saw no other
way to find bread for his starving wife and
children. We are all alike when it comes to
confronting our own hard human natures.
We are all Coxeyites, or may be. Hundreds
Of thousands of US are already, literally.

Henri Marteau. Yiolinist.

Henri Marteau is a young fellow Of 90,
with n fair. soft, dimpled cheek and boyish
moustache. He is going back to France in a
few months to do his service in the French
army Every attitude Of his head and hands
and slim young form is boyish. And yet he
is great violinIst. not a child wonder, but a
man whom the critics have compared favor
ably with the greatest. He is not inexperl-
enced. not crude in any way. His tone Is
beautiful and sympathetic, full of poetry and
feeling. and he has besides marvellous
technique. In the Mendelssohn' concerto last
night, especially the andante his playing was
full of sentiment and delicacy and yet depth,
too. and a perfect appreciation. The Jota
Narvarra of Sarasate filled the audience with
an enthusiasm such as no instrumentallst TINS
Winter has reused. 1t was spirited and

TEARS.

There be three hundred different ways and more
OF speaking, but of weeping only one,
And that one way the wide world DER and DER
Is known by ali though taught by none.
No man is master Of this ancient lore,
And no man pupil Every simpleton
Can weep as well as any sage. The man
Does it no better than the infant can.
The first thing all men learn is how to speak,
Yet understand they not each others speech,
But tears are neither Latin nor yet Greek
Nor prose nor verse. The language that they
teach
Is universal Cleopatras cheek
They decked with pearls no richer than from
each
OF earth's innumerable mourners fall
Unstudied, yet correctly classical
Tears are the Oldest and the commonest
OF all things upon earth, and yet how new
The tale each time told by themI How un-
blessed
Were lifes hard way without their heavenly
devil
Joy borrows them from Grief Faith trembles
lest
She lose them. Even hope herself smiles
through
The rainbow they make round her as they fall
And death, that cannot weep, sets weeping all,

TO THE AID. WRITERS.

There is many business man. We take it,
who does not realize how much his success in
business is due to the man who writes his ad-
vertising. There is hardly business man. OF
course, that does not know that there is no
success in business without advertising. But
how to do it properly, that is the question.
He has his own ideas; they are usually good.
Perhaps he knows how to express them.
Perhaps he distrusts his ability in this direc-
ton; perhaps he has not the time. This is
where the ad. writer comes in. The ad:
writer is TO the stock Of goods like the entic-
ing smile of the salesman He resembles the
grains Of sugar that draw the flies. He Is
oftentimes essential to the successful business
man. He is of great assistance also to the
newspaper. We are with him.

No Action Unfavorable to Breckinridge
Likely in the House.
The feeling among leading members Of the
House OF Representatives is that no action
should be taken or no recognition given to
the litigation in which Representative Breck-
inridge, of Kentucky, has been engaged. AS
yet none of the petitions or resolutions ask
ing for Mr.. Breckinridge's expulsion have
reached the House. When they come they
will take the usual course Of memorials. and
are not likely to get further official recogni-
tion than having the caption read to the
House and then going into the tons OF ac-
cumuated petitions. No member has indi-
Gated purpose of championing the cause
against Mr.. Breckinridge.
Precedents have been looked up in antici-
patton that the case might get before the
House. There is some difference Of opinion
among the veterans Of the House as to the
right to pass on questions Of morality affect
ing a member One of the best lawyers in
the House said the Constitution gave ample
authority. He cited the case of Brooks, who
was expelled from Congress for assaulting
Charles Sumner with cane; another leading
lawyer of the House denied the right of Con-
gress to investigate the personal relations OF
member According TO this authority any
wrongdoing was to be passed upon by a
members constituents. but not by Congress.
So far as Congress was concerned it was
obliged to accept the certificate OF member s
election, without gcIng back Of the returns
and investigating his private character.

WHAT ONE WOMAN THINKS
About the Australian System Of Orphan
Rearing.

Rearing.
Australia has no orphan asylums. The
government is the foster mother or every
child born in the country, and If the real
parent hns not the means to care for it the
authorities receive it until a home Is offered
and then pay S1.25 per week for support un-
til the child is II years OF age. After this the
child may work, his earnings are placed in
the Postal Savings Bank. and at II or 18 years
of age goes into the world an independent
man. This is brief statement Of humani-
tartan child culture methods in Australia. 1t
is, however, well to add that when at school
age the child must be placed In school. and
that il is never given into the hands Of per-
sons so poor that the child might suffer hard
ship.
The state, at cost Of go year. raises
men and women to contribute to its wealth,
and prevents the manufacture Of a criminal to
be cared for in prisons and reformatories.
This idea was put into execution through the
efforts of two women, Miss Clark and Hiss
Catherine Spence, and to them the women Of
this century, and the men, too, may remove
| their hats. They have sounded q keynote for
action for the twentieth century.
| What reform has ever equaled this orphan
asylum reform? We have outlived orphan
asylums-i. e., our present alleged state OF
| advanced culture would seem to indica, thut
| it il high time We left them behind us. As
| civilization advances it is well to recognize
the fact that the functions of the state-and
| the state is made up of individuals-must
extend into new fields 1t was Dorothea

| reformer What woman will undertake to
raze the orphan asylums and founding homes

Petroleum for Mosquitoes.


A Mr.. L. o. Howard, who lives near the
city of Washington, D. c., last year and the
year before made experiments with view to
Kidding his premises Of the mosquito pest
that proved highly satisfactory. The details
Of his experiments have impressed the people
Of New Orleans SO favorably that there is talk
among the city fathers there Of applying the
Howard system of insect killing on grand
scale in and about that city. Mr.. Howard 10
Gated his mosquito breeding ground in mill
pond and the adjoining marshy land near his
residence. He had previously established the
fact by tests in a rain water barrel. that kero-
sene oil Is certain death to the mosquito
larvae.
When he had located the wholesale hatch
cry of mosquitoes he proceeded to spray the
whole area with crude petroleum. The area
was about 1000 square feet, and fifteen gal
Ions of oil, at cost of S1.70. sufficed for the
work. This he did in March when the inno-
cent mosquito papooses were still slumbering
unmatched in the mud and ooze. Three weeks
after the sprinkling there remained a scum Of
oil over the area and most of the larvae had
been killed. During the summer following
Mr.. Howard's first experiment very few mos
quitoes survived to annoy him. The next
spring her epeated the spriukling and during
the summer OF that year he had no use for
mosquito nets.

Here's About Wooden Food.

"Did you ever hear of wood being used for
food?n inquired Amion L. yandervate, of PEN
sacola, Fla, of the corridor man at the Lin
dell the other evening. Il Travelled rather
extensively through Siberia a few years ago,
and found that among the natives along the
northern coast wood in certain form is most
common and constant article OF diet. The
natives eat it because they like it. Even when
fish are plentiful it forms part OF the evening
meal. as many cleanly stripped larch logs near
every hut testify. These people know by e1-
perience that the fact OF their eating wood
arcuses the sympathy OF strangers, and
shrewdly use it to excite pity and to obtain
gifts of tea and tobacco. They scrape of thick
layers Immediately under the bark of the log.
and chopping it fine. mix it with snow. 1t is
then boiled in a kettle. Sometimes little
fish roe milk or butter is mixed with il.
