 Tho young Buonaparto was from a babe abrupt and quarelsome His will fulnoss was extreme. The likelihood is that he never once in his life willingly obeyed anybody Near his death, at Longwood, he declared that he was nev- CT afraid. His ehild-passion was fre- quently excited against Joseph, over whom ho exercised q censorious sway from the time when they toddled togeth- CT i'll the birth-room or fought i'll the yard He appears to have loved his mother, and to have obeyed her in mo- rose and mathematical way; but in his last talk he indicates that his conduct as child toward the mother was rather prudential than affeetionate. He bears witness that the Ramolino lioness was tender in the treatment of him, as we'll as severe and just
 To their fourth child Carlo Buona- parte and his wife gave tho name of Napoleon. At the first it was Napoleone In this form the possessor retained it until, faring up in Paris in the eharae- ter of q young Jacobin, he threw away tho Italian and aristocratic Actions in his name, to become plain, republican NAPOLEON BoNAPARTE.
 The first teaching of the child Bona parte was given by his mother. Then he was sent, in his sixth year, to a ehild's school kept by woman. He went from the parental threshold i'll that same ar bitrary and belligerent mood which characterized him ever. He fought with his sehoolmates, among whom he ap- peared with no sign of neatness in his clothing and nothing debonair in his manner.
 At this time, beside his parents, he had two important relatives. One of these was Lucien Buonaparte, brother of his grandfather Joseph; and the other was Joseph Feseh, afterwards the Car dinal Fesch, half brother of his mother The latter was q studious lad of twelve, who took an interest in his sisters son; and tho former had wealth and influence in tho island, both of which lie was willing to bestow OH the Bonaparte schoolboy Young Feseh aided him with his lessons, and exercised a conservative influence on his temper How little might it bo foreseen that the younger of these twain, with his surly look and long hair and stockings down over his shoes in the dust of the playground, should one day, from an imperial palace in the most splendid city in the world despatch his elder playmate as anbassa- dor to the Pope of Romel

 Napoleon may be said to have had a threefold life. He was an Italian by de- scent, a Gorsiean by variation, and a Frenehman by nationality. He was the last by a close contingency; for Corsica had only become French few months before his birth, We may here glance briefly at the aspect of the world at the date of his apparition.
 The Bourbon monarchy of France was in its hectic heyday-knowing lit tie, and fearing nothing Its wisest organ was the minister of Foreign Af- fairs, the great ChoiseuL Louis XV. was in tho forty sixth year of his reign. | Italy consisted of distracted prineipali- ties, over which the papal power still extended its seepter i'll spectral majesty.

SENATOR ADAMS, of Jefferson county, has given notice that he would introduce an amendment to the Constitution exempting manu- featuring industries from taxation for a period of ten years. If this is not class legislation, what is it, be- sides it is radicalism of the deepest dye and in line and keeping with McKinleyism. What next?-Mal- vern Times Journal.
 The exemption of new mining and manufacturing industries from taxa tion for period of years would do the State more good than anything that could possibly happen to Ar kansas. If Arkansas will but offer the proper inducements at time when capital is unsettled and dis satisfied in the East, the State can soon be made to blossom as the rose. In few years we would have new manufacturing and mining indus ries, which would afford employ ment to a large number of people and in a short period become payers of profitable taxes to the State. Capital is timid, and will not come to a commonwealth where it is not invited. What we need to make us great, rich and prosperous are fac tories, manufactories and popula- tion. anything that will conduce to this end be class legislation. make the most Of it.

WHISKY WAR AVERTED.
Trust Receivers and Distributors
Have Reached an Agreement.

CHICAGO, March 5.-Threatened trouble
between the receivers of the Whisky Trust
and the distributors of their product has
been averted AT a conference this after
noon it was decided to allow the men who
handle the spirits 1 cent gallon car
load lots. This was entirely satisfactory
to both parties. The members of the stock
holders reorganization and their attorneys
will meet in New York tomorrow. 1t is
expected the fact that no assessment is
levied on the stock will cause something of
a sensation.
Jolxichi Takamine, the president OF the
Takamine Ferment Company, has filed a
petition in the United State court against
the receivers of the Whisky Trust. Taxa
mine alleges that in 1891 he entered into
a contract with the officers of the trust for
the experimentation of his fermentation
process and in the event that the process
caused a saving over the old method he
was to receive 20 per cent of the amount
saved. In July last the Trust was satisfied
that the process was an improvement over
the old method and contracted to fit the
Manhattan distillery for the use of the pro-
cess. In December last he began operations
in the distillery named When the receiy-
ers were appointed they caused the dis
tillery to be changed back to the old pro-
cess. The petitioner asks that the de-
PENDANT receivers be compelled to either
carry out the contract or release the Pc
titioner. Counsel for the receivers were
served with notice to answer the petition
before the court within the next ten days.

II the historians who have been holding
fast to the story that the President was
going to infinitely -scrutinize every item OF
every appropriation bill could have been at
the White House between IL and IL o'clock
to-day they would have been shocked They
would have seen the President working his
pen arm with the automatic regularity OF
the piston of an engine. He would seize a
bill, flip the pages through his fingers with
lightning dexterity. affix his signature and
grab hold of the next. only to go through
the same motions. The speed he attained In
signing bills, resolutions and other docu-
ments that were showed under his nose be-
came marvellous as the minute hand on the
clock began streaking toward the top of the
dial Nothing like 1t has been seen in re-
cent years.
If he could have had more time to insist
upon comparisons he might have discovered
that in the hasty enrolment of some of the
big money budgets many things had been
left out and serious mistakes made. The
clerks having the work in hand are saying
this afternoon that half a hundred bad
plumbers have crept into the appropriation
bills which may hereafter give rise to
yexatious embarrassments and complica-
tions This hurry work. Is not all sport.
