The student of contemporary politics in the

guiding hand in its present movements
What may be called the new elements in
Republican ranks are the College Republican
League, the woman's Republican Association.
and the western silver and paternalism con-
tingents. which lean to the Populists, but are
still held in the G. o. ?. Mr.. Clarkson is be-
loved by all these, and they are expected to
make up the necessary winning majority Of
the party when added to the great rank Of
file of eastern and middle state protectionists.
Mr.. Clarkson's personality is a strong one.
His friends are of the kind that sacrifice for
friendship, even as he sacrificed and won
their friendship; he is trusted by the moneyed
hackers of the party in the East and he is
loved by the younger element of the party in
the West.
1t may be that Mr.. Clarkson will turn out
more than his party's manager. He is built
Of timber that turns out nominees.

CHICAGO ENTERPRISE AGAIN.

A Windy City MAN Who Saved His Bag.
gage in the Brooklyn Fire.
Mr.. Robert Ansley, business manager OF the
Chicago Herald, was at the Arlington yester-
day, and told an interesting story OF the
recent fire In Brooklyn, which destroyed the
Talmage Tabernacle and the Regent hotel.
When Mr.. Ansley and his wife escaped from
the burning Regent they found themselves in
q small grass plot contiguous to side en-
trance. The other guests were glad enough
to escape with their lives and gave little
thought to their property.
There was bell-boy standing near by who
had received several round silver favors from
the Chicagoan, and who was Immediately
pressed into service. The little fellow darted
up the stairway and into Mr.. Ansley's room.
Tilting the trunk on the window-sill, the boy
pushed 1t out. 1t fell on the grass plot with
out iniury-it was a true Chicago trunk. The
rest Of Mr.. Ansley's effects followed the trunk,
even Mrs. Ansley's veil. The only thing
found missing after the bell-boy got out was
q beautiful opal and diamond pin given to
Mrs. Ansley by Editor James Scott, Of the
Chicago Herald.
Mr.. Ansley was the only one Of the guests
who recovered anything in the big fire, and
New York man who heard the story said:

when we come to Chicago, but it's a little like
rubbing it in when you get ahead OF US on our

SOLOMON WAS THE THEME.
But the Preacher Made an Illustration Of
Breckinridge.

A well-known minister succeeded in SO
shocking his congregation few nights ago
that several of the ladies tainted outright,
while two or three had to be carried bodily
from the church and resuscitated in the fresh
air. The preacher was expatiating upon the
merits or dement's Of Solomon, as the case
may have been, when he came to the place
where Solomon began taking unto himself his
500 wives.
Solomon" said the holy man. lifting his
hands above his head and gazing sorrowfully
at the roof of the church, Solomon was, my
dear friends-Solomon was-he was regular
Billy Breckinridge sort of a man.
Just here he paused. There was an awful
hush, followed by smothered groan that
came from the center OF the church. The
preacher tried to correct himself. but it was
too late. and his apology was almost as bad
as the original remark. His sermon closed
almost diately.-Louisyille Post.

He Never smiled-onIy Grinned

To the Editor Of THE TINES:
1notice correspondent in yesterday morn
ings issue calls you to task for saying: "If John
Sherman ever smiles it must be inwardly"
He says that he saw him smile when the Vice
President announced the final vote upon the re-
peal of the purchase clause of the Sherman act.
Your correspondent is mistaken in what he saw.
When Sherman heard the vote announced, he
leaned back and rested his head on tho chair,
gazed at the ceiling moment, and then grinped;
he did not smile smile is an expression
Of the soul, and winnow of Honest (?) John
from planet to planet would discover no soul;
hence no smile-just a grin.
