HrYnn'. Bad Taate.

For u man of his rcputed culture Mr..
Bryan at times shows n wonderful lack Of
good sense and good taste. This feature
crops out In every speech he makes. His
declaration that tho Creator did not use
any superior kind Of mud when he made
financiers Is "A case In point. Such state
ment offends not only our sense OF de-
cency, but Of reverence. Even o nonreli-
gious man turns from such irreverencS
with disgust. But 1t seems to be Mr..
Bryan's nature to say such things 1t IL
also In accord with the idea that domi-
mates him TO array the poor against the
well to do Is such the kind OF man the
American people desire to set in the chair
of Washington and Adams and Harrisonf

A Coincidence,

Classical scholars will readily recall
to mind that deep, soul-felt wall of s
noble Roman orator when the decline
and fall of the eternal city was re-
garded by the senate as a foregont
conclusion:
OQuam brevi tempore popuH Romani
on,nium gentium victoris, iberta'
fracta est:
40 in how short time was the
liberty of the Roman people lost, they
the conquerors of all nations"
Only a slight alteration is required
to make the burden of this cry quite
applicable to the outcome of our late
election, viz:
0 guam brevi tenpore cribs de Nc
Grdw, gubernatore Omn@ Westinghouse
fratus est:
90 in how short time was the
McGraw ring broken, he the Governor
Of all w ashington."

And now comes TIM tug-uf-War be

But the methods of McGraw have been

for himself than election oi hi- State
colleagues, and in fact diverted cun>id-
cradle OF the Hanna corruption fund
from common To- a mcic personal
object in which he WAS the beneficiary.
This, Of course, has caused spirit of
decp-seatcd resentment, and this sen

The McGraw gang will not die with.
out struggle. They have had mat
tiers their own way SO long that they
have become arrogant in their assump-
tions, and even overwhelming defeat
will not down faction that embraces
So many adherents who have made
otfice-seeking lifelong vocation.
They will rule or know the reason
why; and the reason why implies ruin
OF those who stand in the way of their
personal advancement. AS band of
wolves in scent of human blood may
be diverted from their prey by shoot
ing one of the number, when the whole
pack falls upon it and rends it to
shreds, so will the rival factions of the
office-seeking crew, now that their at
tention is diverted from the common
foe, spend their force in scramble for
place in which the ground will be
CORY with the blood of the vanquished
wherever the shout of triumph is
raised.
There does not seem to be any pros
pect for compromise of the difficult
ties that confront the party. The Bit
ter luminosity that finds expression in
street quarrels of the principal actors
and outspoken denunciation by the
rank and file, is too deep-seated to be
removed or suppressed by party disci-
pline and the war will 90 on until
one or the other faction is ground into
the dust.

TESTED BY A STAR.
Calculations fer Measuring DIS.
tance and Correcting Time.

Calculations fer Measuring Dis.
tance and Correcting Time.
Some very old printing that was
brought to light the other day con
tains curious suggestions for making
certain calculations that will interest
many people. One OF the suggestions
runs to the effect that person may
ascertain his rate OF walking by the
aid OF a string with piece of lead a,
one end OF it. The string should be
knotted at distances of A feet, which
distance is the 120th part OF an Eng.
fish mile and bears the same proper.
ton to mile that half a minute bears
to an hour. If the traveller, when going
at his usual gait, drops the lead, letting
the string slip through his hand, the
number OF knots which have passed in
half minute indicate the number OF
miles he walks in an hour.
An easy method of correctly
regulating timepiece by the stars is
suggested as follows:
AS the motion OF the earth with re.
gard to the fixed stars Chose tina,
swinkle) is uniform, timepieces can in
4 most simple manner be correctly
regulated by the stars with greater
facility than by the sun. Choose u
south window from which any fixed
point such as the chimney, side of q
building, etc, may be seen. To the
side OF the window attach a piece oil
cardboard having a small hole in it, in
such manner that by looking
through the hole toward the edge OF
the elevated object some fixed star may
be seen.
The progress of the star must be
watched, and the instant it vanishes
behind the fixed point the observer
must note the exact time it disap-
pears. The following night the same
star will vanish behind the same OBJ
ject three minutes and fifty-six seconds
sooner. II timepiece mark 8 O'Clock
when the star vanishes one night. the
following night it will indicate three
minutes and fifty-six seconds less than
8 II the timepiece be faster or slower
than the indication OF the star, then it
has gained or lost the difference. II
several cloudy nights follow the first
observation of the star, it is only
necessary to multiply three minutes
fifty-six seconds by the number OF days
that have elapsed since tile observation
and the product deducted from the
hour the clock indicates the first night
clear enough for the second observa.
ton gives the time the clock or watch
ought to show. The same star can
only be observed during a few weeks
for as it gains nearly an hour in fort,
night, it will in a short time come to
the meridian in broad day light and
become invisible.
In making the observation care
must be taken that a planet is not
chosen instead of star. Additional
to the fact that the light OF fixed stars
wrinkles, while that OF planets is steady
because reflected. sure means OF dis.
tinguishing between them is to watch
q certain star attentively for q few
nights. If it changes its place with
regard to the other stars it is planet
since the fixed stars appear to maintain
the same relative positions with regard
TO each other.

THE Olympian says that "the Re-
publican and the Peoples Party COM
mittees have decided that the honors
of the election are about evenly di-
vided, and no ratification meetings
will be held" This sounds authorita-
tive, but the fact is that neither party
has any money left to blow in for
buster. "Honors may be easy" so
far as the result is concerned, but
there is not State or county official
but who would give the buttons of
his old coat, or the straps off his last
years boots, to swap victories. And
that shows about how much patriotism
there is in political professions.

CLEVELAND, anticipating the posi-
BILE election of Bryan, added several
jars of party plums to the civil service
list. This adds nearly 5000 positions
to the preferred list, who may make
faces at their superiors while waging

cious political activity" This leaves
as the only positions at first-class
postoffices that are now excepted from
civil service examinations, assistant
postmasters and principal cashiers,
at second-class Offices assistant post
master under any legal designation.

it is said, proposes that in January
when retiring officers turn over their

and colors flying. The idea is an ex-
cellent one. Anything to show it

Slch course would partake somewhat

TO PRODUCE WARMTH IN THE SOLE.
Paul Wonneberger, an inventive
Viennese, has devised a heatable shoe.
A tiny furnace in the heel heats water
which is made to circulate through q
flat reservoir in the sole and keeps the
feet warm and dry in the coolest, wet
test weather. The cold rain of the
past week producing innumerable
mud puddles in decrepid sidewalks
and worn street crossings would insure
welcome for such q device to keep
the pedal extremities reasonably warm;
but then, like many other good things,
this may not find general adoption,
and if it does may take lifetime to
reach this part of the Lords vineyard.
