The trouble with Mckinley and
Hobart is that the first named is too
well known and the last not we'll
enough known to arouse anything
even resembling enthusiasm. NO
republican ticket since Hayes and
Wheeler has fallen fatter than Nc
Kinley and Hobart. The fact that
Hanna has had himself made chair
man Of the Republican National
|Committee and vested with. the
authority to select the executive
committee, which has entire charge
| of the campaign, was not calculated
to make any republican, except
those in the Hanna ring, hilarious
with Joy. This extraordinary au-
|thority, demanded and obtained by
Hanna, has never been welded by
any other chairman Of that COM
Imittee, and its exercise is not cal
,lculated to make friends for Nc
Kinley among those republicans
who have usually had a hand in
managing their party's national
campaigns. Mr.. Hanna has proven
ethat he could do the bossing and thu
buying in a campaign for the nomi
7 nation, but he has yet to prove wha
he can do in campaign for election
: and the more republican enemies
he makes, the more he adds to tn
!, chances for the defeat Of his ticket

To Improve q Bad Memory.

been studied anew in Europe, where
some surprising results have been
achieved in the experiments that
were tried, says the New York

d verted to a single channel. lie wa.

II has also been claimed that
memory for minute facts Is culti

Iment. and that due sense OF pro
portion Of large events rarely ac
companies the recollection OF name
and dates.
Here are four fundamental fact

Glass Gathering.

About twenty-six of the members of
Mr.. VIM. Michen's Sunday school class,
which numbers thirty, were entertained
at his residence on Fourth and Wash
ington streets last evening. The young
ladies had apparently looked forward to
this annual gathering, and so were ready
to enjoy every pleasure afforded. The
early part of the evening was spent in
sketching, each one being given a card
bearing the name of some article or ami
NAL to sketch. As the artistic ability of
the different participants was shown,
and the critics endeavored to name each
article drawn, great deal of amusement
was created. Miss Jennie Young came
out ahead in the guessing contest and
Miss Lola Eubank, although proving
herself equal to drawing as fine bicycle
as every adorned blackboard, failed
when it came to judging of her compan-
ions abilities. After Mrs. Michel had
served lunch, some very fine charades
were acted and again kept the guests
busy guessing. Then all joined heartily
in singing till late hour.
Inc menoerS OF the class present
were: Misses Nettie Fredden, Julia and
Clara Nickelsen, Edie Fisher, Jessie and
Carrie Butler, Alice Ball, Martha and
Constance Whealdon, Mable Cross, Effie
and Vesta Bolton, Katie Sergeant, Grace
Willerton, Jennie Young, Francis Van
Vactor, Mollie Norman, Maie and Edna

Martha Schooling, Ardie Looney.
