Charity Not Always Known.

There are people in every community
who are always prating about their
charity and condemning others for their
lack of charity. Those people, as a rule,
make much of the few charitable acts
they do, and go about criticising men and
women for not supporting charities in
which they themselves are interested,
and, without knowing whether or not
there is truth in what they say, condemn
them as being mean and closefsted 1t is
often the case that those who are thus
condemned are far more charitable than
those who condemn them, giving freely
in quiet and transformations way to
those who are really in need of help.
William w. Cornell died in Pough-
keepsie last Saturday at the age of 50
years For more than forty years he
had lived in that city, and for twenty
years he had been confined to his house
by most painful disease Few of his
neighbors saw him during the time he
was confined to his house. There were
not wanting those, however who made
themselves busy with his affairs. They
were good people in their way. They

the city, and made it point to communi-
cate 10 the public how good and public
spirited and charitable they were In
proportion as they spread the story of
their own good deeds, they have malinged
Mr. Cornell. They not only attributed to
him evil qualities, but they declared he
was skm-fint and a miser They said
he boarded his money, fearful that if he
invested it he would lose it and be sent to
the poor house, that he hardly allowed
himself enough clothes to cover his naked-
ness, or food enough to keep him from
starving. And stories like these were
kept atioat for years. There was abso-
lutely no foundation for them.
1t was learned after Mr.. Cornell's death
from those who had known him well that
he had been, almost to the day of his
death, a very keen man of business and
had accumulated a fortune of more than
81, 500, 600. 1t was also learned that he
had throughout his whole life been an
extremely charitable man and had given
away more than all his detractors put to-
gether, and that his living expenses had
been upon scale in keeping with his
wealth.
His detractors were somewhat sur-
prised to discover that they had been
doing him an injustice for so many years,
but it is probable they felt that be was to
blame for what they had done because he
had not made known to them his manner
of living, his charities and the amount of
his wealth.

Up in the state Of Washington it
seems, they do not lynch people only
when they have committed heinous
crimes at which public sentiment revolts;
they take a more cold -blooded, practical
view Of summary justice there, and lynch
people on the score of economy. In the
village of ColfaX, county of Whitman,
man named Hill was in Jail undergoing
a two years sentence. He had been put
on trial for murder, and after two years
of pickering between The courts, iuries
and lawyers, had been convicted of
simple assault. His lawyer had taken
another appeal, which was pending
Some of the reformers Of the town figured
out that hill had cost the county SIC, 900
already, and the expense was still
running. So they took council among
themselves to cut Off the expense. and re-
solved that the best way to do it would
be to lynch Hill. 1t happened that there
was in the Jail with Hill man named
Parker, charged with murder. At the
moment the reformers reached the Jail to
cut off expenses in Hills case, Parker's
case was in the hands of a jury Just
across the street. The jury had retired
to their room and the verdict was about
made up. But the rcformers, in the
interest of retrenchment, decided that
while they were about it they would
lynch Parker as well as Hill And they
did so.

The Washington prophets come up cheer
fully again with the announcement that the

ten DAYS ana become a law before the end OF

Coxey has accepted the populist nomi-
nation for congress from McKinley's old
district, in Ohio His letter is dated
from "Paror g. United States jail" and
in it he accuses Cleveland, Sherman,
Crisp, Voorhees, and ''other congress
ional Judas Iscariots," with having
wrought his personal humiliation and
succeeded in heading of the material
support of the commonweal movement"
The aforesaid heading off is probably
what hurts Coxey worst. 1t is said he
put something like $1,000 into his pocket
as profits on the "commonweal move
mentn before he was put in Jail.

Western ideas make very slow progress
in China The reason is very well
illustrated in the report Of the
beginning and end of la
borers' strike that occurred at Pexin re-
Gently. Several thousand workmen were
repairing the imperial buildings. Their
wages were unsatisfactory and they
struck work. The emperor issued an
edict commanding the soldiers and police
to arrest every one guilty of retardiug
the work The order was obeyed and the
strikers were arraigned for treason.
The most active leaders will be strangled
and their most jealous followers will be
hanished to the fever and mosquito re-
gions for three years The strike" the
cable says, "has collapsed" 10 is no
wonder that there is a great rebellion
sfoot in China, intent upon overthrowing
the ruling dynasty.

The funniest spectacles to which the
Senate is treated nowadays are the
wordy contests between the long whisk-
cred pOpulist, PETER, and the old granny
from Massachusetts,, Senator Hoar. Last
Friday Senator Hoar had something to
say about what he called PETERS inham-
matory and exaggerated statements, con-
demning particularly the statement that
the evil complained of had TO be cured by
law or without law. Law in this coun-
try said MIR. Hoar, "is the enacted opin-
ion of the majority of the American peo-
people, and when a man says that a thing
IS going to be done without law he is sim
ply saying that the minority is going to
force its opinion upon the majority. That
Is what the senator's sentences translated
mean In his reply Senator PETER said
he had discovered ION tine part of the
aged senator from Massachusetts a ten
dency to become irascible and to pounce
upon other senators if they were invading
sacred territory" Il expect blood let
ting Mr.: PETER continued. i do not
expect great war, but l believe there is
trouble close to US, and it is our duty as
wise men to understand it." For an hour
or more these two senators "jiawed" each
other, while the whole country was suffer-
ing for action on the tariff bill. No Won
der the people get disguised with many of
the men who represent them in congress.

Parkhurst's Damaging Disclosures.

Parkhurst's Damaging Disclosures.
The testimony that DIR. Parkhurst is
producing before the investigating com
mittee of the state Senate is exceedingly
damaging to the police. Not long ago he
stated that it would be impossible to
check vice and crime in New York until
the police department is thoroughly re
formed. If the testimony that has thus
far been given in the investigation is cor
rect, his statement is true.
Witnesses have sworn that for protec-
ton in certain kinds of business of an in
famous and prohibited kind, they have
been blackmaiied out of all their earnings
by police captains, ward henchmen, poll
ticians and policemen. They have given
the names of the parties to whom they
allege they paid money, the dates of pay
ment, the amounts they paid for the
privilege of engaging in the business and
the amounts paid monthly for protection.
There is such uniformity in the testi-
mony of the witnesses, showing that there
was a regular system in collecting the
money, that it is difficult to believe they
have not told the truth. The officials
charged with wrongdoing have denied
the statements, but no one expected they
would admit them.
The investigation has only fairly begun,
and if the testimony is true it explains
how it is that police captains grew rich
in short time on comparatively small
salaries. 1t also explains some other
things that have puzzled citizens of New
York tor long time.
If DR.. Parkhurst sustains his charges
! against the police of New York, there
Will be a great shaking up in the munich
pal affairs of that city at the next cleo
ton. A different set of men viii be called
10 the places of responsibility and power,
| new order of things win be inaugu-
rated and DR.. Parkhurst, who was re
garded as crank when he began his
! work, will be the hero of the hour

Nervousness is the National Disease of
the American people and is growing at a
frlghtful rate. The number of deaths fl om
this cause is appalling. In 1898 the Nerve
deaths in New York City were more than
taenty times what they were in 1878, and
now number one-fourth 90 of all
deaths recorded, as the mortuSry statistics
of that city e1emplifes in frishtful and
startling manner.
Vltalized Nerve and Blood Tonic has
proved an absolute cure for this distressing
disease. and its wonderful results are re-
sounding through New England. There
appears to be no case of nervousness, or it's
attendant diseases, so h p less but what it
will permanently cure, even after everything
else has failed.
Mr.. d. c. Greeley, of Clinton, Maine, is
a prominent citizen of that town. he is also
a member of the Methodist church and well
known for his carefulness of statement.
lie says:
"For more than twenty (25) years l

ton of the heart, indigestion and dyspepsia,
for which have been treated time and
again, but did not receive any permanent
relief. 1t was almost impossible for me to
