Napoleon Bonaparte Contributor to
 the Cosmopolitan Magazine.

The singular good fortune has fallen Co the lot of the Cosmopolitan Magazine of presenting one of the most remark able pieces of fiction ever written--re- markable because of its author, and re- markable because it has remained un- suspected and undiscovered for more than hundred years, only to be given to the world at last by an American magazine. A story was actually in ex- istence by Napoleon Bonaparte. The manuscript had survived the vicissi- tudes of war and exile. Had remained locked up for q hundred years and is now about to be brought to light in America. It appears from the re- searches made by the French Napoleonic scholar, Frederic Mason, who youches for the fact over his signature, that Napoleon. when young lieutenant, wrote Corsican story. The manu- script of this he confided to his uncle, Cardinal Fcsch, then Archbishop of Lyons. When Cardinal Fesch died in 1889, his papers were intrusted to his Grand Vicar, Abbe Lyonnet. Napo- Icons manuscript was sold by the abbe to Libri, member of the Academy and inspector of French libraries. Libri sold this and some other manuscripts to Lord Ahburnbam for SIG, ,000, and from 1912 to q recent date Napoleon's manu- scripts slumbered in Ashburnham cas- tic. The Cosmopolitan maintains staff editors in both London and Paris, men of wide requirements, who spend their time in searching exclusively for what | is likely to be of great value to the readers of the magazine. To the Paris editor belongs the honor of securing for an American periodical the interesting manuscript from the worlds greatest personality,

A UNIQUE delegation in the shape of forty women mill workers from New England are in Washington for the pur- pose of protesting against the tariff bill as it now stands. -They want T hearing before the senate finance com- mittee, but as that committee denied hearings to all applicants before the bill was reported to the senate it is by no means certain that they will succeed iu getting it.

EXCITEMENT is running high in con,

EXCITEMENT is running high in con- gress. President Cleveland has dis pleased many influential members of his party who claim that they had q right to expect different treatment for the Bland bill for the coinage of the seigniorage, at bis hands. 1t is need less to repeat the angry threats heard on all sides, because such threats are not really factors in in future legisla- ton. The situation it one that requires calm consideration on the part of those who control future legislation, and that can only come after the excitement has had time to exhaust itself. Nothing is ever accomplished in congress- by go- ing oif half-cocked; therefore the long cst-headed and most conservative men are laying low and saying nothing.

TIE Nicaragua canal scheme is about to have another inning in congress. At least that is the expectation of those who favor the bills now being consrl- cred by the senate committee on foreign relations. There are two bills, one by Senator Morgan, of Alabama, and the other by Senator Hale, of Maine, but inasmuch as they both provide that the United States shall guarantee Sl0O,- GOO, ,000 of bonds to be issued by the canal company, and only differ as to minor details, they are practically the same. The senate is on record in favor of the scheme, so that it will not be surprising should the committee favor ably report and the senate again pass one of these bills. It will, however, require some very slick work to get it :u sight of passing the house.

WHEN n thing k free in Washiugto

WHEN a thing is free in Washington it is apt to be crowded. and when it is q government junket it is certain to be crowded. The navy department issued three hundred invitations to witness the trial of the new thirteen iuch can non, the largest ever made at the gun shop at the navy yard, which took place at the government proving grounds. about thirty miles down the Potomac, and the three vessels provided for the guests were as crowded as an excursion steamer on summer holi- day, and it did not require character expert to see that lots of those who presented tickets were not the original receivers of the invitations. But every- thing "goes" on a government junket, and they all got ride and something to cat--the champagne and Hayanas were monopolized by the select few. Whether those luxuries were paid for by the naval officials or by Uncle Sam, is a question that cannot be positively answered just now. The trial of the gun was pronounced success by the naval officers.

Wool Merchants Protest.

On March 27th the wool merchants of Boston, without distinction of party, gathered at Youngs hotel to protest against the passage of the wool schcd- ule in the Wilson tariff bill. They came 100 strong, representing hundreds of capital and interests which spread through all the states in the union. It was spontaneous uprising against q piece of hostile and unwelcome legisla- ton, such as has seldom, if ever, been seen in Boston. Nearlyeyery firm ill the city was represented, and not n dis cordant note was heard in the emphatic and eloquent protest sent to congaess. The resolution is very long, and covers not only the part of the Wilson bill which deals with wool and woollon products, but attacks the bill as q whole, and is signed by over 200 of the most prominent men of Boston.

SARATOGA. n. ", Sept 2s.-There ia mt
man versed in the ways of convention.
OF political parties that ever saw n si,pa.
t'on ike that which confronts the Demo-
cratic convention, which met today. The
predicament Is explained in a very few
words by Lieutenant Governor Sheeban
lie said: There is not man or noIit;ci.n
mere that knows who the nominee of the
party Will be. 1t is auybody's or any fac
tioh's candidate, and the convention will
be IA Democratic one in every sensa of ,he
word" II is perfectly probable and not
at all out of the line Of impossibilitv that
there will be Il repetition Of the conysn-
ton OF 1876, when the galleries nominated
seymour for governor
The reception that will be accorded to
senator Hill by the convention will uu-
oouooeuly take on remarkable phase
ana Will be scene long to be remem-
nered Dy every person persent, and it is
perfectly probable that he will be nom
mated by acclamation from the galleries.
That he will decline. however, is almost
certain and then there will have to be a
new nomination. Senator Hill has arrived
and opened headquarters Mt the Grand
Union hotel. From the time this arrival
until the late hours of last night he was
besiesed by crowds of delegates.
To the Associated Press reporter he
said: II received word that was to be
temporary chairman of the convention
today. l know nothing about who is the
! most prominent candidate and l have no
opinion to express rs to who will be the
nominee of the convention" Later he
| was shown the dispatch concepning the
declination of Judge Gaynor, and he said
lacOnically: 1T seems that the proper
thing is to refuse to be a candidate"
Tammany's braves have struck the vii
| lage. Several of their delegates were seen
in regard to the placing of Tammany's
strength, and every man favors William
c. Whitney When asked US to the Flower
boon, they seemed to be unanimous
enough, but expressed littl, hope of his
retracting his withdrawal. Ex-Speak er
Sulseer said: William c. Whitney is the
man. Senator Hill! excepted he is the man
to carry the state this fall He will make
his personal wishes subservient to his
party's demands"
1t is an nounced by the Tammany people
that Whitney will he home today and will
| be in Saratoga on tomorrow. This is in
itself significant, for Whitney was not ex.
| pected to be n visitor ut the convention.
| Further, those who arrange for the meet
ings of the conventions have decided to
wait o whole day before they take up the
nomination of candidates, and it is urged
that this is in favor Of the Whitney boom,
because the delay is evidently to let
| Whitney's decision be known before final
| action is taken.
The flower boom is not without some
Significance. 1t is urged that in an inter
