When Freeman Harding writes his ex-
periences of six Months Among the
Tramps" in Ny. Herald, he will no doubt
have something to say about the Topeka
police department. He is a Herald
man who has been working on this
assignment for over a month. He
expects to go no further west than Den
yer and then write up his experiences.
Harding was one of the party of seven
tramps who were arrested in a box car

his left one having been sheG off near
the elbow a year ago when he was

REPUBLIC or Monarcnx.

In 1871, before the French national
assembly had decided whether the new
constitution was to be monarchial or
republican, the count of Paris visited
the palace at Versailles. AS he entered
the door Jules Simon met him and bow
ing said: ''If we are in republic, you
are in my house and L shall be de-
lighted to do the honors. If we are in
a monarchy, I am in yours" The count

SIMPLY LAUGHABLE.
Carlisle's Speech so Styled by
Allen W. Thurman.
Says it is Dead Copy of John
Sherman'S Speech.
SAME DISHONEST STY.
Identical Arguments Sherman
Has Used for 20 Years.
It Won't Hurt Silver Because it
Hasn't He Says.

CoLUEBUs, O., May 21-Allen ".
Thurman, chairman of the Democratic
state central committee. on being asked
today what he thought of Secretary Car
isles speech, said:
10 all those who are conversant with
the history of the subject, it is sim
ply laugable to think the great Sec
retary of the treasury in defense of
the administration and sound money has
been compelled simply to make the same
speech that has been made by John
Sherman each year for the last twenty
years.
"lt is almost dead copy, and has been
answered over and over again until the
people are weary of it.
The same dishonesty pervades it, as
does the copy from which it is taken, but
in the case of Mr.. Carlisle it is worse,
because he pretends to be a Democrat
and then states that Democratic senators,
and among them my father, voted for the
act of 1878.
''He is trying to create the impression
all the while by his statement that they
did this with the full knowledge of what
the bill contained, when he knew that
every one of these senators and repre-
sentatives Including the grand old Beck
from his own state) whom he now tries
by representation to make help
bolster up his own traitorous position,
denied in open senate that they had any
knowledge of what he tries in this
speech by fraud to make people believe
they did.
''As for instance Judge Thurman said:
4 cannot say what took place in the
house, but l know when the
bill was pending in the senate,
we thought it was simply a
bill to reform the mint, regulate coinage,
and Tx up one thing and another, and
there was not a single man in the senate,
unless a member of the committee from
which the bill came, had the slightest
idea that it was even a squint towards
demonetization.'
Senator Beck said: 1T the bill de-
monetizing silver never was understood
by either house of congress. l say that
with the full knowledge of the facts
Nearly every member of the senate and
house made similar statements Why
did not Mr.. Carlisle tell the whole
truth? Can people believe such a man
honest?"
'Do you think the speech will do the
silver cause any harm?"
"Wen, as I said before, Senator
Sherman has been making it for
does not appear to be growing
any less; and more, suppose that Sena-
tor Sherman will make the same old
speech at the Republican convention
next week"
Senator Thurman is quite i'll at present
and unable to keep up with the silver
question, which he and his son discussed
for years together and on which they
fully agreed.

It is Believed He is because His Son Is.
LONDON, May 21.-A dispatch from
Berlin to the Times says that at the BIZ
metallic league meeting on Saturday
there was much oratory but there were
nc decisions. Count Won Mirbach argued
that there was no doubt that Prince Bis
marck was bimetallist, because his son,
Count Herbert Bismarck, had joined the
league.
In yesterdays debate in the lower
house of the Prussian diet, on a motion
introduced on Saturday similar to the
bimetallic revolutions already adopted
by the upper house, DR.. Otto Arendt,
editor OF the organ of bimetallism, made
a long speech.
He predicted that upon the Hon. A. ].
Balfour's advocacy of bimetalIism por-
tended the final victory of the cause in

ate steps to call conference to discuss
the use of both gold and silver for

LITTLE DANNY.

Hid beneath the daisies bloom
Are DaDny's dear blue eyes;
But far above his lonely tomb
His home Is in the skies.
He was our darling and our pride,
The Joy of every heart;
Was like a sunbeam at our side
That did with him depart.
He came to bless us for awhile
With sunshine, love and mirth;
With heart so pure and free from guile,
100 pure and good for earth.
He's roaming now with angels bright
Who tread the other shore;
They took him from our home and sight,
With us to dwell no more.
When spring birds wake us with their songs
At morning, noon and night,
Tis always then we sigh and long
For Danpy's smile 30 bright
But most we miss his form at eve,
When twilight gathers near;
Then 70 our hearts dark shadows cling,
That brings the silent tear.
