a Citizenship" when he said:

manhood, the manhood of all born or
adopted into the American nation. The
creation OF the republic Of America was
the boidest political act recorded in his
tory. But am afraid that patriotism
with some who profess to be the
~staunchest Americans is in practice made
subservient to business claims or to a
false sentiment of self respect. Among
the misfortunes of America I must make
mention OF the caucus and primary. BY
these a few men are able to impose upon
the whole party their own candidates.

A DISLIKE OF x
a Handicap Which the Highest OF Eng

a Handicap Which the Highest Of Eng
lish Peers Have to Carry.
We may note q popularity in the
English feeling about titles OF which
we have never seen a reasonable expla-
nation. The political populace dislikes
the title of duke. Some of the ablest
peers in politics have been dukes, but
to be a duke weights instead OF tighten
ing a man in the great race for power.
There is a widely diffused impression,
the origin Of which we cannot trace,
that q duke is sure to be a little stupid,
that a brilliant duke is, in fact, an i'm
possibility. The title is positive draw
back to the Duke of Devonshire, and a
Duke of Derby would never have been
described as a Rupert of debate"
The Duke Of Argyll, who is an intel
lectual athlete, would have been far
more completely recognized as Earl of
Argyll, and we are not sure that the
dukedom has not impeded n or two
promising politicians in the house of
lords. Certainly a duke rarely rises
there unless he has become known to
the country before the title crushed him.
Is it that the rank overpowers the pop
ular imagination till men cease to see
the persona thing which constantly
happens in the case of kings-or is it
that men can never forget the special
rank by merging it in the simpler and
more familiar title Of "lord?"
No peer except a duke is invariably
mentioned by the title which marks his
grade. We have not IN idea of the true
explanation, but we know that a polit-
ical earl who accepted a dukedom would
lose heavily in popular estimation, and
that ever a marquis like Lord Sails
bury, who would alter his rank SO lit
tie, would find that the coronet of
strawberry leaves acted, to- q certain
extent, as an extinguisher, while if his
son never entered the house Of commons
he would have to struggle against some
inexplicable weight. The fact is one Of
the very oldest in the whole Of the odd
history of the influence of rank, but oil
its reality we entertain no doubt what
ever. To say 'that is q ducal opinion
Is to say it is an opinion that no one in
our days need consider. London Spec
tator.

Sioux Falls Press, .: A farmer in town
yesterday expressed the opinion that the
Russian thlstles would prove Il blessing
in disguise to this country. In his
opinion they will spur farmers to great
or industry, thus making better grangers
of them. After the weed has been
eradicated the habit of industry will
remain, to the great benefit of the coun-
try.
There Is considerable truth and phllo-
sophy in the foregoing and it must have
come from some long-headed Scotchman
who knows what industry in farming
means. But it is to be regretted that
farmers do not learn this lesson Of in
dustry before a pest gets the upper hand
of them and thus entail lifelong and
useless toll upon themselves.

LEAvENwoRTH, Kan, May 3.-Judge
Myers of the district court has made an
important order affecting the rights OF
DR.. Leslie E. Kelley. w. F. Johnson
of Topeka sues DR.. Kelley for 800 600
damages, the petition reciting that the
plaintiff has been made a physical
wreck because OF the gold cure. Judge
Myers, in granting the petitioners re-
quest, ruled that DR.. Keely must make
known the ingredients of his bichloride
of gold compound. The court holds
that the cure is not a property right,
nor trade secret; it is unprotectedsby a
patent, has been in use o than two
years, and there is nothing to prevent
DIR. Kelly from testifying, and that ne
must tell what it is.

BELIEVED TO BE SERIOUS.

The Rnmors of Indian Troubles In North
Dakota.
WASHINGTON, May 3.-Oficials at the
Indian bureau are inclined to think
that the outbreak among the Indians in
North Dakota is more serious than it is
believed to be by Attorney General
Olney, who refused a request from the
United States marshal at Fargo for
United States troops. The payments
due the Indians are away behind, and
there is reason to believe that there
will be a general uprising. Agent
Henton replied some time ago that the
Medewaukom band and Red Wood had
nothing to live ON and were uneasy.

THE SUNNI CAPE.
A Pretty Accessory 10 the Warm Weather
Costume.

A Pretty Accessory to the Warm Weather
Costume.
The tiny little cape that is not much
more than n collar Is greatly fancied
for summer evening wear. and really
is protection against draught-and,
infinitesimal as it seems, will undoubt-
cdly keep from many woman that
evil OF evils-a summer cold. Ribbon,
lace. chiffon or silk muslin are used in
making these capcs. and while they
fetch large prices ut the dressmakers,
they can, with u little thought, be made
at home and only small amount Of
money need to be expended upon one.
She who has q slender, rather long
throat will, for comfort and effect,
choose the cape surmounted with full
box.plait. A very good model for this
type of woman is cape made of white
chiffon little over q quarter OF yard
deep and plated in full accordion fash
ion. This is fastened to double box
plat OF black satin ribbon nearly an
eighth of yard wide, from under
which, falling down on the cape proper,
are long cut jet pendants. The ties,
supposed to be the end of the guile,
are OF ribbon like it, and when looped
have ends that reach almost to the
edge of the skirt while the loops come
to the waist.
For the short-throated woman an
other style of cape is shown. While
chiffon or muslin may be used for It,
turnover collar, fancifully cut, either
In blocks or vandykes, Is the neck fin
ish. A very pretty one has the cape
formed of two full rifles of rose-col-
ored silk muslin. Rolling on the cape
is velvet collar of emerald green cut
to form two points in front, one on
each shoulder and two in the back.
These are outlined by three rows of
iridescent spangles. A clasp, formed
of two large imitation emeralds, set
round with rhinestones, makes unnec.
essary the ribbon bow which is never
advised ut any time for the plump
woman. These CONNECTIONS, as, prop
erly enough, the French modiste calls
them, give just the necessary warmth,
are delightful TO wear and pretty to
look upon. A very simple cape, quite
suited to an elderly lady wearing moth
ing but black, Is short ripple one OF
black broadcloth, smoothly cut SO that
no hem or lining Is required. with a
