Who Was NJ lson?

On a recent visit to Mime. Tussauds ex-
hibition, / found myself among crowd Of
persons gazing ut that memorable scene in
the cockpit of the Victory, described in the
catalogue as "The Death of Nelson" 1t
is certainly realistic group, sufficient to
enlighten the most untutored mind.
While standing there contemplating the
tragic scene before me- l heard woman
say to her companion, 'Who is Nclson?'
The man, startled for moment, pulled
himself together and with crcditablo
promptitude replied; "Nelsonl Oh, he
was the captain of man, of warr' No one
laughed.
1t was a very natural answer, and it
seemed to satisfy the company, which
moved onward to inspect the Polish giant,
who, ever since was boy, has been pois-
ing Tom Thumb on the palm of his hand.

and was first set up in the garden of the
cure of Prenditz (Moravia) on Juno Is OF
the year above named. The rod attained
as much distinction as that later made by

A Good Number.

The relation which price bears to quail
ity in literature is made obscure by the
Christmas Cosmopolitan. Stories by
Rudyard Kipling, VIM. Dean Howeils,
Mrs. Spencer Trask, Mrs. Burton Har-
rison, and Albian w. Tourgee, are inter-
spersed with poetry by Sir Edwin Arnold
Edmund Clarence Stedman, and James
Whitcomb Riley, while through the
number are scattered illustrate ons by
such famous artists as Remington,
Toche, Reinhart, Turnes, Van Schaick,
Gibson and Stevens. A series OF por-
traits of beautiful women of society
illustrates an article on The Relations of
Photography to Art; a travel article by
Napoleon Nye, grandson of the famous
Field Marshall: one of the series of Great
Passions OF History, to which Fonde
and Gosse have already contributed,
and half dozen others equally interest
ing, go to make up the attractions of
the number. The Cosmopolitan people
say: 1--WE might charge you more for
this number, but, III all frankness, could
we give YOU better material, better illus
trated. if we charged you a dollar a
copy?"

He Who Follows These Rules Shall BE
Happy In His Betrothal.
It will be well for the man who ex-
poets to sail smoothly into the matri-
monial port to continue those fattering
attentions after his engagement which
preceded it. It will not suffice for him
to talk of what he is saving to make
their little home worthy Of her. He
Hrst, by some magic, be able both to
asVe money for the future and to pro-
vide her with the flowers, books, bon
bons, theater tickets and other trifies
which be bestowed upon her when there
was no future to be taken into consider
alton.
He must treat her people with defer
ence, cordially and f1lial affection. He
must let her complain of all their faults,
retail all the family quarrels and point
out all the family imperfections with
out ever allowing the knowledge he ac-
quires thus to tinge his behavior. He
must listen to her abuse Of them with
sympathy and never by any chance show
anything but the highest regard for
them himself. :.
He must like all her friends. He
must treat 1.-THE girls'' with the init
macy which never, borders on familiar
ity; must enjoy their society, which
will be thrust upon him at all times
and places, and at the same time must
be prepared to agree with her estimate
Of their shortcomings. 1t will be just as
we'll for him never to admire them too
extravagantly. :.
In public he must always be prepared
to show her the attention she needs, but
must also be prepared to let her shave
q good time" unhampered by his devo-
ton. For instance, he must never let
her sit out dance alone, yet he must
never glover when she seems to be
dancing often with other men. His man.
ner must be perfect mingling Of devo-
ton and noninterference.
Incidentally it may be added that an
occasional dose Of neglect is wholesome.
and that semioccasional quarrel is not
to be despised. -Philadelphia Times

NOTHING new need be said at this
time relative to the senatorial contest.
Both Messrs. Washburn and Nelson
seem to be confident Of success, and all
have agreed to submit their claims to
party caucus. Every argument tor and
az ainst the several candidates seem to
have been exhausted, and it is to be pre-
sumed every member of the legislature
has fully, if not irrevocably, m ade his
selection. The present indications are
that Mr.. Wasburn has more votes than
any OF the other candidates, but may
not have more than all combined, The
HERALD has faith to believe that he will,
in the end, be successful.

democrats twelve and the populists
fourteeu-necessary tor a choice of SEN
ator on joint ballot eigh 'y.fve. In the
republican caucus it will require seventy
two votes to nominate, and it seems to
be the accepted opinion that no candi-
date will have enough votes on the
first ballot to nominate
The pre- sent situation is traught with
a two-told danger to the good name
OF the republican party, and SO incident
ally to the state itself Thus far in the
campaign there is no reason to believe
that any attempt has been made to use
money in behalf of any candidate. 1t is
to be sincerely hoped none will be. In a
always danger OF corrupt influences be-
ing set to work, NOT necessarily bv or
with the knowledge or consent of the
principal in interest, but by some of his
supporters or henchmen, who place a
very low estimate upon political honor,
and still sless upon the law of the land.
If such methods be resorted to it is to
be hoped that the guilty ones will be
brought to bar. This is one danger.
Another kdanger lis that the result of
the caucuses, if there be any result, will
not be accepted by all the candidates.
In submitting claims for political prefer
ment to a caucus it is at least tacitly
agreed, that the result of the caucus shall
be acce pied as conclusive. The HERALD
sincerely hopes that no scandal arising
from this cause will be fastened upon
the party during this canvass, and fur
thermore, if any one of the candidates
shall so ifar forget himself, and the duty
he owes to himself and his party by bolt
ing, that such candidate will be defeated
by vote so overwhelming that he will
feel it to be rebrke.
There is but one condition of affairs
that will justify such bolt, and that is
pal pable. proof that the caucus had been
corruptly manipulated, and the proof
must be something more than a rumor
or a surmlse.

SENATOR KELLER has introduced a
bill into the senate which provides for
reducing the pay of senator's and men,
hers to $500 Tor the session, irrespective
OF its length. The present compensation
is FIVE dollars per day and the session is
imi ted to 100 working days. The HER
AID does not believe there isany demand
for such reduction on the part of the
taxpayers. Economy is, of course,
public as well as a private virtue, but in
both cases it may be carried to excess.
No man conducting any business de-
ma nding intelligent, responsible and
honest service would consider it wise to
offer tor such service sum wholly out
OF proportion to the responsibility and
intelligence required. It would be diff
cult to find an artisan OF fair ability
who: would be- willing to leave his home
and family, as most representatives
must do, pay the expenses required and
agree ito accept $500 for a job which
might end in 100 days or might be pro-
longed twenty or thirty days longer.
Whv should the members of the leg,sla-
ture be expected to do it? No! Paw
fair compensation. cut off nnearned and
corrupting perquisites OF whatsoever
kind, demand honest and honorable
services and hold every member to the
strictest accountability. Bv such a
course better services will be secured and
the stigma removed from legislative SER
wire. Low wages and cheap service are
the inevitable law. Ii you want a good
thing pay good price for it. It's cheap

A Parsons First Kiss.

Rev. John Brown, of Hadding-

bashfulness. His courtship lasted
