4 NEW USE FOR THE COMPASS.

A man who has decided theOr on
hygienic subjects is said to carry
compass in his pocket for the proper
placing of his bed when travelling.
He thinks this of the utmost impor-
lance in securing perfect repose, and
urges his friends to form the habit Of
sleeping with the head towards the
north, in order to get the benefit Of
the electric currents which are con-
stantly passing from north to south.
This is very old theory land it GER
tainly would be well for poor sleepers
to test it.
In the absence Of a compass it is
claimed that watch may do duty for
one by pointing the hour hand to the
sun, when the south will be exactly
half way between the hour and the
figure XII on the dial Of the watch,
and of course the point directly op-
posite would be1the north.
In houses which face east Or west
this method of placing the bed IN
sleepingrooms is generally the one
best adapted to the shape of the room
but where the exposure is north or
south it might have an awkward eff
feet.
To remedy this, set a projecting
brass rod in the wall short distance
from the ceiling, and of length equal
to the width Of the bed. Throw over
it long scarf, tent fashion, and push
the bed up under it close to the wall.
This scarf may be made of two
widths for single bedDof dotted Swiss
or any delicate white goods, ruffied
all around, Or of one of the dainty
colored chintzes which will bear laun-
dering. It should reach within foot
or so Of the floor, and serves to cover
the back of the bedstead, which, if
not of brass, might be unsightly set
in this way.

The Fashion In Necklaces.

Necklaces grow more elaborate, and
old fashioned chains with lockets are
again revived. which is a mercy now that
the fashionable bodice uncovers so much
of the average unloveliness Of the femi-
nine neck and shoulders. Call them

you will, the depressions above the Shout

on. The safety of the republic gets
imperilled in these yociferous days in
numerous odd manners; but among
them all there is no idea more ludicrous
than that it is called into jeopardy by
the failure of our already virtually
bankrupt treasury to throw cool
hundred million or more into a Central
American ditch, or into the pockets OF
its anxious stock jobbers, which Is
much the same thing.
To the average American there Is
doubtless measure of sentimental in
terest in the glowing representation OF
trade benefits to be won by the mere
act of indorsing private canal cor
poration's bonds; and this is cleverly
stimulated by the additional intima-
ton that If we will hasten this liberal
dive into our national pockets we shall
have the exquisite pleasure of humill-
ating arrogant England to boot. But
after the first flush of sentiment eX-
plres it fortunately occurs to most
thoughtful Americans to pause ana
weigh the later consequences; ana
then it is seen that the sport of humil-
iOting England becomes costly ut the
price Of national scandal and dishonor,
and that even far-away ditch on pa
per doesn't compensate for II lot OF nara
debts calling for immediate payment
in actual cash.
We can say all of this without de-
tracing one syllable from the wise
arguments in favor of Nicaragua
canal, constructed by the United
States government wholly; yet even
that kind ofa waterway could well be
postponed until we should have no
better OF more pressing uses for our
money. The fact of the matter is that
the sentiment in favor of translsth-
mian canal Mt Greytowu is largely n
manufactured sentiment, created by
the expert manipulation ofmen with
worthless bonds to dispose of and with
a keen scent for oranother federal scandal
similar to that which characterized
Uncle Sans connection with certain
Pacific coast railroads.

Villas as an ApoloRist.

We do not anticipate for Senator
Villas, of Wisconsin, a successful career
as an apologist. His defense of Cleve-
land is not effective. 1t is, instead,
ridiculous, The American people do
not view their servants with that SER
vile reverence which can assent to the
proposition that criticism of them is
equivalent to treason; and that the
legislator who resents unprecedented
executive interference, whatever his
animating motive, is guilty Of an in
suit to the nation. In other words,
we do not believe that any consider
able proportion of the intelligent citi.
zenship of these United States are to-
day so infatuated with Grover Cleve-
land that they are ready to doom Sena-
tor German to the gibbet or the rack
for having had the audacity to show
up Cleveland as he Is.
The kind of talk that Senator Villas
INDUCED in during the senate debate
Thursday would do tolerably well were
it to come from a grateful office holder,
anxious to evince appreciation for ma
terial favors by the unbridled luxur-
lance of his sycophancy. It,would not
be pleasant, perhaps, but it would
bo only too natural in the case of sub
sidized editors anxious to pay, by the
fuIsomeness of their printed praise, for
the honor and the emolument of post
official distinctions. But it has false
ring In the auditorium of the Ameri-
can senate, where, in spite Of the Villas
opera bouffe, Grover Cleveland Is full
well known in his true light as an eg-
gregious impostor, pretending to q
purity and to an omniscience wholly
outside his ken, and seeking, in the
face ofrepeated exposures, to stand be-
fore his partisan following in the role
of the modern Pharisee, who is "holier
than thou"
Nor will Mr.. Villas nauseating fiat
terry raise sufficient oratorical dust to
obscure the obvious method in Mr..
Cleveland's economic madness; to con-
ceal, for example, that while he wants

MGR. Satollis Ruling.

Elsewhere THE TRIBUNE presents n
plain statement of the facts and the
various opinions connected with the
recent ruling of Mgr. Satolli, the papal
ablegate, with reference to the attitude
Of the Catholic church in America to-
ward those Of its members who are en-
gagged in the sale of intoXicants. We
deem this statement, devoid of ofcolOring,
to be an important piece of news, of in
terest both to Catholics, as indicative
to them of the tendency of their church
in relation to the liquor problem, and
TO others, who will, from various
standpoints and with varying emo
tions, thus learn the full significance
ofthis religious body's important ac-
tion in the premises.
The immediate origin of the whole
discussion dates back to the circular
letter Of Bishop Watterson, of the CO.
lumbus, o., diocese, portion of which
is as follows;
again publish the condition, without
which for some wears / have declined to

lions in your parish and have IL faithfully
obs, rived. II is sure, however. to com.
u end itself TO every right spirited and
healthy association of Catholic gentlemen.
II there are saloon keepers in your parish
who call themselves Catholics and yet

openly or under any sort of guise or dis

chance come 10 receive the sacraments,
unless they promise to cease offending in
these or other ways and to conduct their
business blameessly if they can, or get out
Of 1t and keep out Of it altogether.
The reader of this extract, when he
understands that it has been twice re-
viewed by Archbishop Satolli in his ca
pacity as personal representative of the
Holy See, and both times indorsed by
him, will understand, without further
explanation, why there has recently
been much discussion in Catholic
church circles concerning it. The
temperance sentiment of the country
will undoubtedly be strengthened by
this new ruling, despite the opposition
that it will arouse.

THE FARE TO TYBEE.
Holders of Certificates May Make a
Two Years Test Of the Property.

Holders of Certificates May Make a
Two Years Test OF the Property.
There seems TO be more than one side
to the Tybee railroad fare question, ac-
cording to one of the gentlemen who was
financially interested in the rebuilding of
the road.
II don't understand it," he said yester-
day. Il can't see that the fare of 80
cents for the round trip is otherwise than
reasonable, and under the circumstances
L think the patrons Of the resort should
be willing to pay that fare. The figures
last year show that the road was not run
on paying basis. The facts are that
about s22, 600 was taken in for fares and
on freight, while the operating expenses
were about S39, 600 and the fixed charges
which of course could not be paid, were
Sl2,500 more. 1t can readily be seen
under the circumstances that for every
person who paid 80 cent fare, it cost
practically rs cents or 81 to carry him.
'It is on account of this deficit of the
earnings from operating expenses last
year, which amount had TO be made up
from the fund in the hands of the re-
ceivers of the Central railroad that a
claim is now being urged for an issue of
S15, 600 receivers certificates to reimburse
the receivers of the Central for this
money expended out of the general fund.
Wnether TINS claim Will stand i do not
know, but there would be no means of
making up deficit should one occur this
year,
"At one time the people were so en-
thusiastic over the road that they were
talking of rebuilding it by popular sub
scription, but now some of them protest
against paying 80 cents for 80 miles
of transportation. When il looked as If
the road would not be rebuilt this sum
mer FIVE of the bondholders agreed to
take the certificates and build the road
themselves. They had enough adverse ex-
perience with the bonds, which now
have very little value. The certificates
are due in two years, and they expect TO
run the road for that time as an expert
ment If there is deficit, and the inter
est on the certificates cannot be paid the
course they have discussed and will prob
ably pursue, will be TO sell the property
10 realize the amount of these certif-
Gates, which could easily be done indie
pendent Of the road itself, as the engines,
cars and terminal property are Of consid-
cradle value. They have discussed this
matter among themselves, but, of course,
they would rather see the road pay so
well That no such step would be neces-
sary. The operations Of the road will be
well tested within the next two years
and perhaps on that result to some ex-
tent will depend the future of the prop
erty."
