WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-Throughout
the preparation Of his recent political
history and its presentation to the pub
lie, Senator John Sherman Of Ohio has
been guided by that very fine sense Of
thrift which has made him "A wealthy
man and which has kept him success
fully in public life for a great many
years. Probably there was never a
forthcoming publication as successfully

hands Of public men throughout the
country:

such public interest was created i'll the
book that its sale, now going on by sub
scription, is going to be very large.
Agents are canvass!ng Washington and
are placing a great many copies here.
These agents have made known another
shrewd scheme by which $25,00O will be
obtained. The price Of TIE cheapest set
is 81. Various styles of binding carry
the price If ordinary bindings NJ to $l2.
There Is to be a special edition Of 1000

THE REPLY OF SALISBURY.
Consent to Arbitration That Would Neces-

Consent to Arbitration That Would Nece,-
sarily BE in England's Favor.
MINNEAPoLIs, Nov. l5.-The Tri-
bune's Washington special says that
from a high official source m the
information that Salisbury's reply to
Mr.. Olney's note regarding Venezuela
has been received at Washington. The
principal feature of the Salisbury re-
ply, it is said, will be a proposition to
allow the records and archives of British
Guiana, to be presented to the arbi-
traitors when chosen, and they shall
stand as prilna facie evidence that the
territory in dispute was coded to British
representatives, by the native Indians.
There are many other details, and it is
further stated that Nh. Oley will be
compelled to reject the proposition of
the English government, since it is
considered that it will propose arbitra-
ton that will only result in the English
claims being fully substantiated.

ANOTHER VIEW OF IF.

The increase in wages by manufaetur- CTS and employers generally throughout the country Is indisputable evidence of the return of prosperity. But there is another fact in connection with this gratifying state of affairs which de- serves as much attention as the material aspect. In many instances these in- creases have been voluntary, the em- ployers anticipating demands from their men. No doubt selfish motives moved them to a certain extent, but all the same their action will Ina ve most bene- ficial effect upon the relations of labor and capital hereafter. The thoughtful workingman will not be apt to charge his employer with greed, and will listen more patiently and respectfully to his employers statement of the difficulties and embarrassments with which he has to contend. It is within the lines of safety to say that strikes will be fewer in the future and that the feeling between master and man will be more cordial and sympathetic.

How St. Martin Rode the Devil.

Ono of the curious legends preserved in "Hone's Every Day Book' is that which tells the story of St. Martin wonderful feat of transforming the devil into mule and then mounting him and riding to Rome. This story, remarkable as it is, was for merly one of the standard miracle tales in all Catholic countries and was at one time believed by nine-tenths of the Christian population of the world. The story some4 what modernizod is as follows; St. Martin had been valiant soldier, but having given up the profession of war was elected bishop of Tours
 Although prelate of note, he kept neither horses, carriages nor servants. This being the case, when he was called to see the pope, he started for the Holy City afoot and alone. As he was walking quiet ly along the road he was met by the devil, who politely accosted him with the remark that such q foot journey must be very fla tiguing and rather out of place for such a church dignitary. St. Martin well knew the drift of his satanic najesty's remarks, and, in order to put him beyond the power of doing harm, miraculously transformed the poor devil into very common looking mulel After performing this miracle to his satisfaction the saint mounted the fiend, who rapidly strode off in the direc- tion of Rome. The journey was rather un- eventful, with the exception that the devil took occasional "mulish' spells which only caused the saint to make the sign of the cross, which served to goad the fend forward until the destination was finally reached.-St. Louis Republic.

A NIGHT OF HORROR.

The landsman who has never gone down to the sea in ships can hardly ap- preciate the peril in which the hundreds of souls on board La Normandie were put by the breaking out of fire on her last trip. Nothing can chill the stout heart of the sailor like the cry of fire. It car ries with it visions of death by flame or wave. or days of suffering in an open boat on the vast deep beneath the piti- less rays of the sun, with the added hor- TOTS of hunger and thirst. That was a night of gravest import on La Norman die. But the crew quilted themselves like men and success rewarded them. Truly they were entitled to every word of praise accorded them by the grateful passengers, who had been saved from fate too terrible to contemplate
