Senator Tuman returned to Washington
from the west with the impression appar-
emily that he is a much bigger man than
ne really is. In his western tour he met
only silvertes, who are bitterly hostile
to the President. and who are always
ready to lionize any man, however igno-
rant he may be, who abuses the Presi-
dent and the supporters Of sound money.
1t is not to be wondered at, therefore,
that he got the idea that the eyes of the
whole country were upon him, and that
if the silverites should control the Chi
cago convention he might be the demo-
cratic nominee for President
Under the influence of that idea probably
he attacked Senator Hill in the Senate
on Friday. The chances are that he now
wishes he had not engaged in wordy
warfare with the New York senator. The
exhibition he made of himself was sim
ply painful. If he has any friends in the
Senate they ought to have stopped the
set-to by leading the South Carolina SEN
ator into the cloak room, or into the
lobby, or anywhere. in fact, so long as
they got him out of the reach of Mr.. HIS
rapier-like thrusts.
Mr.. Tillman not only displayed dense
ignorance of the silver question, but his
wild and reckless assertions made him
ridiculous, and caused laughter at his ex-
pense. He constantly violated the rules
of the Senate, which showed that he was
no match for his cool and clever oppon-
emit
Mr.. Tillman will learn after awhile prob
ably that the Senate chamber and the
stump in South Carolina are altogether
different arenas. and that bold, coarse
and reckless assertions, which are ap-
plauded in the back woods, do not in
crease a mans reputation for intellectual
ability and craftsmanship in the United
States Senate.
Mr. Tillma. has ability of certain
kind, and doubtless has some very excel
lent qualities. 1t is pity he hasn't a
friend at Washington who has sufficient
influence with him to be able to tell him
the truth about himself without Offend
ing him. He is quick witted, however.
ana viii see sooner or later that the role
he is playing will not make him more
respected or enlarge the sphere of his
usefulness

4 Photoeraph of Love.

NarI<ierrieZ-Jadko-a harsh name; run
of angles and rough places; with ca
tarrhal commencement and simian end
ing. No one would suspect a man with
a name like that of giving thought to
love, the tenderest, softest of passions
Indeed. Herr Narkierriez-Jedko has not
permitted his thoughts to lightly turn to
thoughts of love. They have turned
heavily, ponderously, analytically, scien-
tidcally. and his observations have been
as devoid of warmth and geniality as if
he were investigating the bacili of cramp
collie instead of studying the passion that
made a fool of Marc Anthony and sew
eral other fellows. Nevertheless this plod-
ding German scientist says he has made
a discovery that may be written down as
greater than that of Prof. Roent-
gen. for while Roentgens rays are able
merely to expose material things, the
long-named mans discovery lays bare the.
innermost secret of ones heart of hearts.
Electricity and the Photographic camera
are the agents employed. The process Is
secret. but by it he places the hands of
a Il
that the finger tips lack about an inch of
touching. In this position he photographs
the hands If the man and the woman
are in love with each other the picture
shows a series of electric sparks dash
ing from the points of one set of fingers
to those of the other set If there is no
love between the owners of the hands,
no sparks appear. Thus it seems that love
is not merely a sentiment. but is some-
thing real and tangible; and that it Is
hot or holds latent heat. The talk about
warmth of affection, and the electrify-
ing influence of love, and the burning
words of alteration, are not merely fig
ures of speech. They are facts. though
their originators did not know it,
The discovery will be turned to CON-
mercial account, of course. All modern
discoveries and inventions are, just as
soon as it is possible. The advantages
that may be derived from the Jedko ap-
paratus are numerous and obvious. I'm,
happy, loveless marriages and divorce
/ courts may be abolished. The young
man viii not waste a year at counting,
when three weeks would be sufficient He
| will take Jedko camera in his pocket and
make pictures of the fair ones hands
! at each sitting. and just as soon as they
/ give off the proper sparks he will pro-
/ pose and be accepted The delightful
suspense between proposal and accept
/ ance win be spoiled, for the young man

sex will be equally as great. if not greater.

lauon Will be decreased. No woman will

in her cheeks begin to fade along with

able to provide herself with indubitable
proof as to whether the fellow who comes

Distnrhing Sermons.

We are not prepared to say that ad-
vanced pulpit thinkers do the cause Of
religion harm, but it is certain that many
Of the views they express have a disturb
ing influence upon thousands of people
who are sincere Christians. Such views
may be right. and it may be right to give
expressions 10 them. They may be the
means of leading the world to a clearer
understanding of the truth. The danger
in them IS that being apparently con-
trary to long accepted teachings they may
make doubters among those who. if IN
disturbed in their beliefs, would remain
earnest Christians.
For instance. the Rev. Lyman Abbott
of Plymouth church. Brooklyn, has re-
Gently delivered a series Of sermons which
have excited a good deal of comment. ana
have been pretty severely criticised by
some other ministers OF prominence.
These sermons dealt with such subjects
as these: Whether the Bible is the in
sp!red word Of God. whether Christianity
IS based upon the teachings of the Bible.
whether miracles are violations OF the
laws of nature, and what is to be under
stood by the atonement.
Dr. Abbott was misunderstood in some
particulars by his critics. but the partic-
ulars in which he was correctly quoted
furnishes a wide field for difference and
discussion

Hall and Money.

Like many southern statesmen, says the
New York Tribune, Col. Money is a be-
lever in free coinage. Congressman Jo-
siah H. Patterson of Tennessee tells
story concerning tilt he had with Mr..
Money over the financial question. Money
was to preside at a mass meeting in his
state. and Patterson, who has been doing
missionary work in the interest of sound
money in the south, was invited to attend
and speak. He dld, and now he declares
he will never enter the state of MlSSls-
sippi again. He went 10 the meeting and
made a speech that he thought was un-
answerable. He was listened to with dig
nified silence Then Mr.. Money was called
upon to take the 16 to l side and refute Mr..
Patterson's argument Instead of making
an argument the gentle colonel arose ana,
pointing his finger at Mr.. Patterson, said:
Il want the representative from Tennes-
see to answer one question truthfuly as
gentleman. Are you not marrying one OF
your girls to an English nObleman and
giving him 100000 to take her? Answer
me that" The crowd yelled for Money to
go ahead and give ii TO him. The ar
gument" was apparently unanswerable,
and, TO use Mr.. PattersOn's own words,
after that they unanimously adopted a
resolution declaring for the free coinage
of silver at the prescribed ratio of l6 to l,
added a clause thanking me Tor coming
down and talking to them, and then ad-
In direct opposition to Mr. Moneys
money views are those of his enemy in the
duel of inkstands. Mr.. Han of Missouri
Some time ago Mr.. Han received tele-
gram from his state asking him if he
would accept a denomination upon free
silver platform. the one VINO sent nm
the message suggested that if such plat
form did not meet his ideas he might say
so, but add that he would yield to the
wtshes of his constituents and vote for
any legislation favorable to free silver
Mr. Hall did not hesitate moment and if
report is true his return message was en-
phatic He is reported to have said in
substance: ''Wiu not accept denomination
upon the platform you cite. Free silver
is raising - and - in the democratic
party. VIII accept nomination only upon
a sound money platform"

BouteIIe ToIx Water.

1t is recognized that Congressman Bou-
tele of Maine is most in his element when
he is combating everyone else, says the
Pittsburg Dispatch. This was illustrated
in his naval career One of his chief
sources of amusement, when a young man
before the mast, was, his admirers say. to
challenge any English sailor to single COM
bat whom he met in the streets of Liver
pool. And it is not recorded that of the
many engagements he thus contracted he
ever failed in the attempt to uphold the
supremacy of the Stars and Stripes. He
was always willing to put his loyalty and
his contempt for John Bull and his sub
jects to a practical demonstration.
While single-handed and alone he was
contesting the bill to restore the confed-
crate officers to their civil rights in the
House, some time ago, Congressman Mer-
Ger leaned over his desk and remarked:
"Boutele, you ought not to take this po-
sition."
why not?" remarked BOuteIe
Because I don't consider il becoming of
you" said Mercer. dryly.
why not2" snapped the man from
Maine, in an ugly humor
Well" said Mercer, your record shows
that when the war broke out you took TO
the water"
Boutelle for a moment was inclined to
retsliate upon Mercer with a vicious re-
ply, but just a that moment the jest fash
ed upon him and he smiled.

It is pretty generally admitted by the
republican leaders that Ex-Cov. Mckinley
viii be the presidential nominee Of the
republican party. His success in Illinois
practically settled the contest. Ex- Presi-
dent Harrison and his Indiana friends say
that the Indiana delegation VIII favor
him. and may De instructed FOR him.
Mr.. Mckinley has not had the help Of
the party leaders. The most Of them are
opposed 10 him. and they do not hesitate
20 express their dissatisfaction with aim.
They have TWO great objections TO him.
one is that Mr. Mckinley is a man OF
ordinary ability and weak character. and
the other Is THAI there Is some doubt as
to what his position on the silver question
is.
There is considerable force in both OBJ
tecuons. When M Mckinley was in con-
gress he devoted himself almost wholly
to the tariff. and yet the features Of the
Mckinley tariff that attracted the most
attention We're suggested by Mr.. Blaine
and others. These suggestions Mr.. Nc
Ktnley opposed Indeed. there are emf
hent republicans who do not hesitate =
say that Mr.. Mckinley knows very little
about the tariff. although he has given the
best years Of his life to the study Of it.
His silver record is calculated to alarm
sound money men. sim. his views on the
silver question may have undergone a
great change since the gap between gold
and silver has become so great There
was time when he spoke and voted for
silver. but that was when there was very
little difference between the bullion value
o a silver dollar and a gold dollar, and
many public men. both democrats and re-
publcans. who are now sound money
men. thought that the gap could be closed
by unlimited silver coinage. The eXtraor-
binary production Of silver. however, APP
pears to have convinced Mr.. Mckinley
as it has convinced them, that even If all
| the great commercial nations should open
their minis to unlimited silver coinage,
the commercial ratio of gold and silver
would not be the same as their present
coinage ratio.
Mr.. Mckinley is not a man Of strong
wnl-not such man as Grover Cleve-
! land IS. and even among his admirers
there are those who fear that if he should
be elected President he would be easily
Influenced by men seeking TO advance their
personal interests. and that his admins
tration would be weak and noted for scan
dals. Mr.. Mckinley is a pure-minded man.
however. and his intentions are good. His
personal record is clean and there is
no doubt about his popularity with mass
es of his party.
