Nine Jumel, and a host of other relies
equally interesting
But the attention Of most visitors to
the exhibit is centered upon the jewels of
the Empress Josephine. They are kept
in the safe deposit vaults generally. and
in the church are continually lnder lock
and key, with guard beside them.
They are the Jewels which the Empress
wore at the coronation. a diamond
chain and bejeweled watch are the pIin-
clpal pieces. but besides these there are
two quaint diamond pendant earrings, a
gold bracelet and diamond tiara.
Laces of fabulous value, also worn by
the empress, are under lock and key, and
beyond reach are the eagle wings and
culver for the possession of which Mre
Jumel was arrested in Paris. Napoleon's
clock, the Gobelin tapestry used at NAL
malson, satinwood table, decorated by
Josephine, and an alabaster vase from the
Tuileries are also in tlHA collection.

No American will take pleasure In the
fall of Ambassador Bayard. Party spirit
Is not strong enough with us for that.
Democrats holding positions in the for
cign service receive credit when they per-
form service that reflects credit upon the
country, AS an instance, the vigorous
American speech Ambassador Eustls
made In London last year was applauded
by the American press without distinction
CT party, possibly excepting half a dozen
journals which consider any vigorous ex-
preston Of Americanism little short OF n
crime. The rumor that Mr.. Bayard may
be transferred to France has probably no
other foundation than the admission of
the state department that Bayard has
demonstrated incapacity for the English
mission. But France Is not q good place
of refuge for n minister who has incurred
the displeasure of his government. While
we have not exciting controversies with
the French government one might be
created should minister considered unfit
for England be assigned to France. The
best thing Mr.. Bayard can do is to re-
sign. II has been shown that the syn
opsis OF Mr.. Bayards Edinburgh speech,
upon which Mr.. Barrett based his resoll-
tion for censure, was substantially cor
rect The debate will be renewed, and
it viii without doubt be directed to the
establishment of the charge often made
against the Cleveland administration OF
lack of American feeling. This is the
vulnerable point of the Cleveland admin
istration, and It would be indlscreet in
Mr.. Bayard not to make himself, and in
cIdentally, the administration, the subject
OF such discussion,

Until some method is discovered by
which political mountebanks can be per-
suaded or compelled to keep silence On
public questions, every good cause will
continue to suffer from their friendship
and advocacy. The American people in
stinctively rebel against vulgar charges
and abusive eplthsts. They are more than
likely to give practical effect to Their re-
vulsion Of feeling. They mistrust the man
who spices his speeches with coarseness
They mistrust the cause which such n
man claims to represent, and In their dis
gust they may not stop to consider the
fact that neither cause nor candidate can
be held justly responsible for what 1t ne
cessarily an offense to every decent man.
1t is time for blackguardsm on public
platforms to go.

1t remains for the Republican National
Committee now to consider what plans
they may carry out to make the success
of the party sure next year. Among the
members of the present committee there
are many who believe in modern educa-
are the right methods, and 1t is matter
Of congratulation to the party that so
many Of It's leading campaigners turn
their faces to new ways and means, not
merely of discovering what the true is
sues are which cause one party to sue
ceed and another TO fall, but to make GER
tain that those issues find expression at
the polls. 1t is necessary. not only that
there should be voters, but that the voters
should come out. It is necessary first tn
keep and win over as many followers
Of given party as possible, and then it is
necessary that they should not merely
think and talk, but act.
The general desire among Republican
managers to discuss public questions fully
and openly is good 1t presupposes in the
first place confidence in the ju t!ce OF
ones cause that is in itself keystone OF
strength. Then the writer's and orators
are put to 1t to discover what arguments,
always truthful, Of course, though some
times ingenious, will best interest the
doubtful voter. SO general benefit asids
from the helpfulness to single party, is
almost certain to accrue.

chievous Boys.
Topeka State Journal
Two little fellows struck mine of
amusement one day last week and worked
1t for all 1t was worth.
Their plan was to stand at the street
corner and when a pedestrian got in
good range they called out excitedly,
pointing to the victims feet:
Say! You dropped your footstepsl'
IT was great fun-for the boys
Presently an old lady approached the
corner. She was fat ard locked IN ort-
ant. The boys hugged themselves in
sheer delight. This time, to prolong the
enjoyment, they began:
Say, missus! 'Scuse us, but you
dropped something!'
Dear me! What? Such nice hoys.
I'm sure" And she stopped and picked
up a silver quarter lying directly before
her and sailed on.
