If there were no other reasons
why the Populists in Kansas should
be overwhelmingly defeated this
year, their brazen endorsement OF
the outrages perpe rated at the or
ganizatlon Of the last Legislature
would be amply suflicient.-Kansas
City Journal.
The Populist convention was com
posed of men who had the courage
of their convictions. The ReNub-
lican convention did not dare to go
before the people with an endorse
ment of Douglass, Hughes, Wilker-
son and other conspicuous anarch
lists and traitors. That is the differ
enue between patriots and the re-
solved that we want the Othces
crowd.

Joaquin Miller and the Ira mps.
Argouaut.

The venerable joaquin Miller used
to have warm spot in his heart for
tramps. He went so far as to build q
house on his California farm for the
accommodation of tramps, and fur
nished it with plain but substantial
comforts, free use of which was given
any tramp who came that way. The
outcome he relates in an article in a
California magazine. "Resultsl In
less than year the last sheet, pillow
slip, bedstead, frying pan and coffee
pot were gone. Not only that, but
the windows we're broken the sashes
burned. Too worthless to 90 out and

KISSED THE JUDGE AND JURY

Polish Women Reward Then for a
Verdict OF ssNot Guilty"
A jury had just announced verdict
of "not guilty" in the case of Anna
Wonzowiska, pretty Polish girl, 16
years of age, charged with a criminal
offense, before Judge Garretson's court,
Long Island City, last Saturday, when
a number OF Polish women spectators
made rush for Counsellor Merrill and
showered fervent kisses upon him.
The jurymen smiled, but their turn
was coming, and before they realized
what was going to happen, the women
made an assault upon the jury box
grabbed tue members of the jury
around their necks and imprinted
kisses on their cheeks and hands.
The men struggled, but their chairs
prevented escape until the foreman
had received an affectionate embrace.
Foreman Armstrong ran for the door.
1t was a short, sharp race, but the
foreman won.
Judge Garretson frowned from the
bench. He was too surprised to act
until it was nearly over. He was re-
covering his composure when the
women started for him. The Judge
was saved by the interference of the
court officer, who succeeded in getting
the women to leave the court room.
The earnestness Of the women had
such an effect on the spectators pres
ent that they made up a purse of $40
for the girl. She left court light of
heart. She will 60 to family in Port
Washington, L. l.. where she will have

That pain from slight burns is very
great. An excellent application is a
thick paste of common baking soda
moistened with water, spread on q
piece of linen or cotton, and bound on
the part, writes Elizabeth Robinson
Scovil in an article on "What to Do
in Emergencies" in the March Ladies'
Home Journal. This can be kept wet
by sqeezing water on it from sponge
.- cioth until the smarting is
soothed.
A thick coating of starch can be
used instead of the soda, or wheat
flour if nothing better can be had, but
neither should be applied If the skin
is broken. In this case it is better to
use vaseline, olive or linseed oil. The
doctor will apply some preparation
containing carbolic acid.
If the air can be effectually excluded
from burn the pain is relieved.
Blisters should be pricked and the
fluid absorbed with soft cloth before
dressing.
If the clothing adheres to the skin
the loose part should be cut away and
the patches of material soaked off with
oil or warm water
When the injury is extensive the
sufferer will be prostrated and may
die from the shock. Heat should be
applied to the extremities and over
the heat, and hot drinks given until
the doctor comes.
In burns from q strong acid the
part should be covered with dry bak-
ing soda or lime, as the alkali will
neutralize the acid. No water should
be used. but cosmoline or oil applied
after the alkali has been brushed off.
When the burn has been caused by
an alkali an acid must be used. A
person recovering from the effects OF
q burn requires very nourishing
food.

THE BRUTE AND THE LADY.

Sleighs drawn by four horses are
employed OH the Washington stree
route. The heavily loaded sleigh wal
coming cityward. One of the horses
next the vehicle fell. The driver
lashed it with his whip. Then he
kicked it. Finally he swore at it
But he did not get down to extricate
the animal from the harness, which
heiu it prisoner. The men in the
sleigh buried their chins in their over
coats and INDUCED the contemplation
of fatalism as philosophy which re-
moves every passion from the breast
Suddenly lady clad in sealskin
sacque got out, and, going up to the
driver, said to him in an imperative
way, Give me that whip"
The driver was dazed. In a stupe-
fed way he handed over the whip.
Now" said the little lady, "if you
touch that horse aguin l will let you
feel the weight of this whip across
your shoulders. Get down this mo.
ment and cut the harness and help
the horse to RISE" The driver started
at her. The women in the sleigh
Uttered, the men hung their heads.
Get down this moment" sad the
lady, shaking the whip over the driver.
The latter mechanically obeyed. The
harness was loosened, the horse was
raised to its feet. The lady put her
hand on her satchel, brought forth
some biscuits and treated the whole
four horses to one each. The effect
was magical. The hopeless cynicism
OF their poor faces gave place to hope
and love and gratitude. Then the
lady, very white, but as resolute as
Joan of Arc ever was, entered the
sleigh. The men still hung their
heads in silence.

until discovered and written aDcut by
the Rev. J. H. Suydam, hangs in the
parlor Of Mr.. Peter de Vries, Sr., at
Arnheim, the town in which Sir Phillip
Sidney died. I had the pleasure Of
visiting Mr.. de Vries in June, 1891.
He received me very graciously, and,
on entering the house, I saw at once
this elegant oil painting Of Washing
ton hanging upon his parlor, wall dec
grated with Dutch and American flags.
AS he himself said to a delegation Of
New Workers, 1888, My great-grand-
father, Mr.. Claas Taan, received 1888
a present from America, in commemor-
alton Of this service and his descend
ants, cherish it as an evidence how an
independent nation values the volun-
tary services Of q foreign nation in
time Of difficulty and adversely. This,
gentlemen, is a contribution to the his
tory Of Americas war of independ-
ence'
Rambling as a student of American
history through Holland, and well pro-
vlded with letters Of introduction, it
was a great pleasure to look upon
these various relics and gifts of the
Father Of his Country and to notice
how richly in Dutch literature and in
various ways the knowledge and appre-
ciation of American history is SO gener-
al among the intelligent Dutchmen. 1t
it easy for Hollander to compre-
hend and sympathize with our free lib
eral republic because they themselves
first formed, on original lines, a simH
lar commonwealth.
''This fresh study does but confirm
| that noble trait of Washington, the
membering and rewarding faithful
service. How often is it true in the
history of the world, that when great
men have exhausted the benefit of serv-
ice, they have forgotten, or even cruel
~ treated those who helped them in
their time of need! Yet it is also not
always true that republics are ungrate-
ful? The example of Washington in
this, as in many other things, is brill,
liant, and worthy of all imitation''
