A good story Is told here, says the Chi
cago Times Herald's Washington letter
about a democratic congressman who, in
the Fifty-first or Reed congress had a good
deal to say, though he was not much en-
couraged by his fellow members, and is
now for some unknown reason compelled
to live in the retirement of private station
When Tom Reed was carrying everything
before him, counting Quorums and silenc-
ing the tiercest of the opposition as If he
liked that sort of amusement, this con-
gresham became very much excited. In
the cloakToom one day he addressed Crisp
Mills, Mcmillan and a lot of leaders on that
side of the house as follows: I'm tell you
what we have to do. This thing must be
stopped. We must organize an assault
-Four or FIVE of the strongest, ablest, most
forcible and eloquent men on our side must
attack Reed one after another. And l am
willing to be one of them myself
The same gentleman, who was endowed
with the sort of cOnceit which gave him
many hours of unclouded happiness, was
called upon at dinner given in honor of
the completion of the monument TO the
late Senator Shields TO make a few re-
marks. He talked for a long time the
most striking feature of his discourse being
the following: 1T was a fortunate thing
that occupied seat in the House 1t was
l who introduced the bill making appropri-
alton for this statue. When God in His in
finite wisdom made me member of CON
gress He secured the erection of this noble
monument"

Songs that shall bid the feet of SORROW

Umpirins Wa. Net III. Specially.

He was a teacher Of a department in the

Finally they got him out In the broiling

This and other points were explained TO

Some sIn. of the ronrne.

1t was but the transposition of two or
three letters, says the Boston Herald
which spoilt the eloquence of a preacher
who, in place of. Bow not thy knee to an
idol" said Bow not thine eye to a needle"
In similar manner young clergyman, in
giving out the hymn, "Conquering Kings"
merely stumbled over the first syllable
but, being unable to save himself started
his congregation with the announcements
The hymn tonight will bee, 'Kinquering
Congs -'Kinquering Congs.' Much the
same was the pitfall into which reverend
gentleman walked when, In place Of saying
Behold the fig tree, how IL withereth

or three letters asked his audience to BE

But perhaps one of the most comical in
stances of slips of this kind Is the case of
the preacher who, describing conscience
and desiring to get his listeners to recog-
nize the prOmptings of its inward voice in
the half-formed wishes of the mind, appeal
ed to them whether there was one there
who at one time or another had not felt
within him the effects of a half-warmed
fish" After this, the instance of a parson
who, devoutly reading the lessons In SOL
emn tones, announced. He spake the
word, and cattle-hoppers came and grassi-
pillars innumerable," seems almost com
monplace. So too, does the mistake of the
priest who assured his congregation that

camel to enter the kingdom of Cod

correctness. Of Gresham's law. namely.
that the poorer money always drives out

deny positively the correctness OF this
law. There are too many men living who

We do not think the senator's speech
will do the cause Of silver any good.
Those who know nothing Of the silver
question will not understand it and those
who are familiar with that question will
have no difficulty in answering it TO their
entire satisfaction. It doesn't compare
favOrably in any particular with the sound
money speeches Of Secretary Carlisle.

to the Mckinley sugar bounty swindle

900 OF public funds should he given 10 the

comes a unit again. The Withholding in

From the New Orleans Picayune DemO.

Were the United States government to
permit itself TO be deprived of the Mica
ragua canal 1t would be held uD to the
ridicule of Europe. No other first-class
power that had gone so far as this country
has in the matter would for q moment
hesitate to coerce Nicaragua rather than
yield the point. Secretary of State Olney
should at once notify the Nicaraguan
government that no forfeiture of the
grant will be permitted, and that any in
reference with the canal project would
be considered an unfriendlY act

torate Stambuloff is on the side of ma
tional independence. The motive for

5ectured.

The Courier Journal is convinced that
eX-President Harrison did not say that ne
wished he had a gun whenever he saw a

say in all probability was that he wished
he had a gun whenever he saw a fat
bicycle.

Maybe the reason Mai. Poole did not
hear Gen. Harrison say he would not again
be a candidate for the presidency was
because the general was trying to talk
through his grandfathers hat.

The british ELECTIONS.

The returns thus far from the elections
in the United Kingdom Indicate that the
conservatives will have such a majority
as will justify them in expecting a long
lease of power. There are 200 members
Of the House of Commons Our dis
patches yesterday stated that the con-
servatives and Jnionists have elected 27i
members. while the liberals, Parnellites,
and anti-Parnellites have elected only
80. The conservatives and unionists have
made net gain already of 40 members.
1t is hardly expected Of course that the
conservatives will continue to have such
success as they have had in the elections
already held, but II they should, they
would have a majority much greater than
the most hopeful of them predicted.
The liberals are much disheartened.
and reasonably 20. and they are hunting
for reasons to explain the defeats with
which they are meeting. Some Of them
say their unpOpularity is due to the
drink ISSUE" which presents itself in
the shape of what is known in this coun-
try as local option. It is said the great
brewery interests are against the liberals,
and they WELD an immense influence.
1t is probable, however. that the main
cause of the disasters the liberals are
encountering is their failure to press ag-
gressively the home rule" policy which
gave them the control Of the govern
ment. At the previous election, about
the only issue that Mr.. Gladstone pre-
scented was that Of ''home rule" When
the home rule bill was rejected by the
House of Lords. and Mr.. Gladstone gave
up the leadership Of the liberals and
dropped out Of public life. the liberals
practically dropped the fight for home
rule. Lord Rosebery proved to be unequal
to the position of leadership, and the
Liberal party lost the confidence of the
country. That appears to be about the
situation. When the Liberal party comes
to the front again 1t Will be with new
leaders having more courage and ag-
gressiveness than those that are now
being condemned at the ballot box.

Tho Moons of Mars.

The most interesting of all moons Gre the two that attend Mars, each about sixty miles in diameter. That planet is just onc-half the size of the earth; it's surface is divided into conti- nents and seas, having as much land as water; it has an atmosphere, clouds frequently conccaling its face, and it's seasons are about the same as here, though the winters arc colder. Be- cause one of the moons travels around it three times as fast as Mars itself turns, it appears to rise in the west and set in the east, while the other, really eircling in the same direction at speed comparatively slow, rises lu the east and sets in the west. Thus both moons are seen in the heavens at the same time, going opposite ways.
