gard to the Mckinley Doodle fund that
hurts all the other Republican candi-
dates. The trusts and monopolies
know their man, apparently, and are
not afraid Of losing anything by shell
ing ont" freely 10 aid his nomination.
Senator Chambers words are con-
irmed by Senator Cullom, of Illinois,
Governor Kellogg. of Louisiana, and
other noted Republican leaders, as we'll
as many leading Republican papers.
The charge that Mckinley Doodle has
been used in Allegheny county TO elect
Mckinley delegates is now the subject
Of a suit in the Pittsburg courts. In
an interview Frederick W. Herbert, of
Columbus. Ohio. who has been promi-
nent in the politics Of that State. says:
When Mckinley was a candidate for
Governor of Ohio the first time / was
member .of the State committee. Sub
scripti0ns 90 aid iu his elections came in
great Numbers from large manufacturing
concerns There was big block OF them
of 5000 each. and one OF $40 900 came from
a Chicago steel concern.
Several pittsburE corporations sent us
money. We had money 20 burn. 7 think
our campaign fund was $4,000. and it all
came easy
I presume the Mckinley movement IS
being taken care Of now by the same
people and in the same generous way.
As Mr.. Herbert says. McKinley's
campaign fund came easy" 1t comes
easy now on the same terms as before.
1t is only a loan at mighty rates Of in
terest to be paid out of the pockets
of the people in the event of the sue
cess of the high tariff candidate. For
the fat fried in the previous campaign
the tariff barons were reimbursed a
thousand times over. They were al
lowed to write what they pleased in
the tariff schedules of the Mckinley
law. Now it's the same game over
again only it has begun this time be-
fore the nomination in the interest Of
the candidacy of the man who did the
job so neatly for the high tariff inter
ests before.

The Methodists the other day took
the first step toward the establishment
Of what will be called the American
University. Not Ions ago the subject
Of a national university had It's annual
airing. and the Catholic University has
just begun to give degrees to those who
have been through it's course of studies.
With this beginning Washington be-
gins 10 loom up as a city Of universe
lies. There are obstacles in the way
of a national university. which would
be a scheme of doubtful expediency.
If these institutions viii stand on their
own bottoms they will have a much
greater chance of success than if they
seek their support from the govern
ment.
The Methodist people have been ex-
ceedingly persistent in preparing the
foundations OF theirnew institution. and
there is no reason why it should not
De a gratifying success. The Catholic
University has surpassed an expecta-
tions in it's solid and substantial
growth. and viii soon compare favora-
bly, with similar institutions in Europe.

Your indignant Uncle Bill Chandler
is still exposing Republican secrets at a
rate that must give the high tariff ring
masters the sbivers. Gen. Grosvenor.
McKinley's Washington manager. has
made the New Hampshire Senator mad
der than ever by calling him a liar.
because Of his disclosures regarding
McKinley's Doodle campaign. In a late
interview Mr.. Chandler repeats all that
he said before in regard TO the Ohio
Napoleon's candidacy and then goes in
to details. making specific charges in
terms so dignifed and moderate that
nothing less than an equally specific an
swer viii do. He charges that the man
ayers Of the Mckinley campaign are
engaged in raising a fund of S25o.0OO
from certain manufacturers to be used
In securing the Republican nomination
for the Ohio man. This extract from
Chambers interview is Of interest.
After reasserting that he has good au-
thority for the statement that $3.50. 900
is now being raised from the protected
interests to secure McKinley's nomina-

ANOTHER y RAY DISCOVERY.
Prof. Fessenden Has Found Means of
Measuring the New RAYS.


Measuring the New RAYS.
Pittsbutg. Pa, March 25.-Pittsburg
can at least claim one distinction with
the new Y rays. Prof R. A. Fessenden,
Of the Western University, who has
been working in conjunction with
Prof. James Keller. has invented
meter whereby they can be measured,
which will assist greatly in studying the
effect of the new discovery.
The meter is a very simple arrange
ment. Two wires are placed half an
inch apart in a tube which is filed with
paraffine. The wires are connected
with a volt meter that has been charged
with electricity. Para11ne being a non
conductor. the electricity is discharged
and the volt meter registers the amount
Of electricity passing. No unit has yet
been adopted for the Y rays. but it is
probable that one soon will be.

A DOUBLE PROPOSAL.

Eight years ago Walter Granton and
Cyril Bradthurst were friends and rival.
for the smiles and favors of Iva Lawton,
the beautiful and accomplished daughter
Of old Major Stephen Lawton, q Philadel.
phia real estate dealer of considerable
wealth.
Both young men were well connected
and moved in the best society, and II
seemed uncertain who would be successful
In capturing the fair prize each coveted.
Granton was fair haired, with brown
eyes, and his manners were unaffected az
well as polished.
Bradthurst had coal black hair and eyes,
and 1t was sometimes limited he was rather
sporty" for respectable young man OF
the sedate Quaker City. His manner.
were dashing, and he bad always been
flatteringly successful In attracting the ut.
tention and admiration of the fair sex
Although the two young men under.
stood their position In regard to Miss Law.
ton, neither seemed inclined to discuss the
situation with the other, and their friendly
relations continued while both were striy.
Ing to win the affection of tho girl they
loved and hoped to marry.
A rivalry of this sort usually makes the
best Of friends enemies, but this case
seemed an exceptional one 1t was thought
that whoever proved the lucky man would
receive the congratulations and best wishes
of the other.
At length Granton began to fancy him.
self the favored one, and within his heart
Bradthurst thought 30 too.
AS result the young man with the
coal black eyes began to drink more than
was good for him, and one night, meeting
Granton, he made strange proposal
1--WE are both In love with Miss Law

by going to her and telling her the
truth-that Ia, that we love her. Then we
shall ask her to choose between us. The
one who Is rejected shall DO bost man for
the other and hold no hard feelings. What
do you say2"
This seemed fair and manly enough, but
Granton could not help suspecting an un.
DERIVING purpose, SO he demurred. This
appeared to arouse the anger of Brad
thurst, and, fixing his piercing eyes on the
Otuor 81 no Crleu!
"By heaven, you shall do 1t whether you

Granton mado no further objection, and
they proceeded TO call on Miss Lawton.
She happened to DO at homo and willing TO
receive them, although surprised by thoir
unexpected visit.
Then strange thing happened, Granton
did not wait for his oomrade 10 speak, but
Immediately snid;

A ship load of Agateware
would be a big lot for one
store even in the United
States; it's a big lot for Homo
lulu and more than we receiv-
ed, but what we did get on
two sailing vessels would as
tonish the people if they saw
all the articles in one pile.
Our stock Of Agateware is
selected from "Firsts" not
Seconds" the quality is the
best that can be made and We
sell it at the piece you used to
pay for the second quality.
This means a saving of 334
per cent, because the life of a
first-class price of Agateware
is a third longer than one of
the second class.
When buying for the holi-
day season there is more
pleasure in receiving a useful
present than in a bauble.
Every housewife loves good
China and there is nothing
more beautiful than a set Of
Haviland. We have a COM
plete stock of this ware and
sell it in full sets or single
pieces SO that if you want to
fill up a set that has been
broken or purchase a dozen
plates or a course set you can
be accommodated.
