In Time of Danger.

A veteran sailor has been interviewed by
an English journal with regard to the con-
duct of passengers on vessels about to
sink. He said:
Women cry, faint and cling to each
other, but are least trouble Men often act
very strangely; I remember one man
throwing heavy trunk into the lifeboat
which he wanted to save, but which we
promptly heaved overheard.
Some men become quite panic-stricken;
I've seen strong men, probably brave
enough in other cases, fighting fiercely for
the life buoys, and thrusting the women
and children aside in frantic endeavors to
leap into the boat first-yet, strangely
enough, one man who thus disgraced HIM
self has since obtained the royal humane
socetys medal for saving life at sea,
thrice volunteering with a scratch crew
in aid of a distressed vessel
1--WE known others who became so stu
pefied with fright as to resist all attempts
at rescuing them, begging to be left to die,
and having to be forcibly thrown into the
lifeboat. Some persons frequently become
half-demented, and I've known several
cases where they have in a frenzy COM
mitted suicide by jumping headiong into
the sea and drowning themselves, and one
man, to insure his sinking filled his pock-
cts with coal.
About six years ago another passenger
hearing the ship had struck, went and
drowned himself in the bathroom, antici-
pating his fate, as it were.
ct remember another case where a pas
senger hanged himself in his cabin just as
the iifeboat arrived"

The Florida Ballot.

Il
| The general trend Of advices from Flor
ida is to the effect that the people are
pleased with their new ballot system,
which they tried for the first time on Tues
day last, Notwithstanding large number
of the voters who went to the ballot box
lost their votes through their inability to
comply with the requirements Of the law.
1t was stated in our Jacksonville dis
patches yesterday that one-fifth Of the
voters Of Duval county, one of the most
intelligent counties in the state, failed to
vote through inability to comply with the
law, and that the proportion was larger
in the rural districts.
The modification Of the Australian ballot
system adopted in Florida differs from the
systems in use in some other states--in
Pennsylvania for instance-in that the
Florida system requires that all candi-
dates for one ONCE shall be grouped under
one heading; that is to say, there is but
one heading for governor, another for sec
rotary Of state, and so on, and names of
all candidates, without distinction of par
ty must be put under the heading Of the
office for which they are running. Tho
voter must take his pen or pencil and
make cross mark opposite each name
that he wishes to vote for. There is no
provision made for voting straight tick
ct with one stroke of a pen; each name
must be crossed separately.
Under the Pennsylvania system, each
separate ticket has its heading and party
mama and 10 ef1yer a oaiuu.r - i+sAlS A.
the head of the column is a space for
cross mark to be made in case the voter
wishes to vote the straight ticket. voter
who cannot tell one letter from another
may, under this system, learn the position
of his party's ticket on the Official ballot
and, by simply making cross mark at
the head of 1t, cast his ballot solidly for
the party. Under the Florida system moth
ing OF the kind can be done. Not even the
names Of the parties to which the candi-
dates belong can be put on the tickets. The
voter must know the names of the men
he wishes to vote for, and must be able
to single them out and make a mark
against every one of them, as only those
marked are counted
II VIII pc seen at once tnat the educa-
tional qualification in Florida is more ex-
acting than in Pennsylvania. But it is not
too severe. Indeed, it is lenient. when 1t
is considered what vast interests are at
stake. The enforcing of the law may have
the effect for the time being of reducing
the popular vote and the size of the demo-
cratic majority. But they are reductions
that can be afforded, when it is reflected
that the operations of the law will have
the effect of squirting otherwise qualified
voters to the requirement of at least
enough education to give them the ballot
And the more education they have the
better citizens they will be.

warner Miller Left Again.

At the recent convention of Universal
lists at Herkimer occurred something out
of the ordinary in the way of church oys-
ter suppers, says the Utica Observer.
The ladies of Hertimer served dinners
and suppers to the delegates Oysters were
wanted for the supper Thursday evening
and none could be obtained in town. An
order was sent to Utica, but when o'clock
arrived and some of the delegates wished
to get away on an early train, the oysters
were not on hand for their supper. The
Rev. Mr.. Gibbs, the pastor of the Uni
versallst church in Herkimer, was appeal
ed to. His search among the market
places for the required was fruitless. He
finally arrived al a market that was clos
ed, but he pushed open the door. A four
gallon jar of oysters rewarded his efforts,
and without even ringing up mo sale on
the cash register turned his steps in the
direction OF the church as happy as a boy
with stolen pumpkin made into a jack
o-lantern.
The oysters were prepared and the feast
we'll under way when the butcher put in
his appearance. The following dialogue
took place between the butcher and he
Rev. NJ. Gibbs:
"Why did you take those oysters? they
We're sold"

Gibbs.

1t is beginning to crop out
that the republican managers have
| underes dmated the strength Of
the democrats in the central
| western states, nearly all Of which the
republicans must carry to insure the elac-
ton Of Maj. Mckinley. They have as
sumed that the result of the elections In
Maine and Vermont was a fair indication
of the sentiment in the central western
states on the money question, but they
are beginning to find out their mistake.
The speeches which Mr.. Bryan has been
making has taken a far deeper hold on
the toilers for daily wages than has gen
orally been supposed. il is a notable fact
that the heads of the great labor organi-
cations and the labor agitators
are against Maj Mckinley. The
fact that the owners of the wealth OF
the country are arrayed against Mr..
Bryan has been, and is still, an effective
argument against Maj Mckinley with
those who have nothing except what thoy
earn from day to day.
The statement that is appearing in re-
publican papers that Michigan win give
Maj. Mckinley anywhere from $1,000 TO
Is 900 majority and that Illinois can be de.
pended upon for 6O0OO and Indiana for
$1,000 majority has little or no founda-
ton. 1t is based upon the talk of en-
thusiasts who have nothing to support the
estimates which they make
Chairman Hanna understands the situ-
alton pretty well, and it Is worthy OF no
tice that he is making no predictions In
respect to the central western states. On
the contrary, he is admitting when
pressed for an opinion that some of the
states needed for Maj. McKinleys sue
cess are in doubt. That he thinks they
are in doubt is shown by the fact that
he is concentrating his efforts on Illinois
Indiana, Michigan and Minnesota IN
Illinois he is spending money lavshly in
sending out campaign orators and cam
paign literature. One hundred stump
speakers were sent out in one train
day or two ago, and a delegation Of union
veterans is traversing the state to arouse
enthusiasm for the republican ticket
among the old soldiers. The statement
that is appearing in some of the republi-
can papers that the battle is practically
over, and that Maj. Mckinley is sure of
a victory, is nonsense.

No Money for Palmer.

The Palmer and Buckner campaign was
opened with a prospect that it would be
conducted with great deal of vigor That
prospect is not as bright as it was. The
Palmer-Buckner campaign lags. The rea-
son Is that the campaign managers have
no money with which to carry on cam
paign work. Gen. Palmer and Gen. Buck
ner are doing what campaign work they
can, but they are not arousing a great
deal Of enthusiasm. People are not deep
ly interested m candidates who have no
chance for success.
Chairman Bynum visited New York last
week for the purpose of getting money
with which to carry on his work. He
was not successful. All the democrats
with whom he came in contact told him
how gratifled they were that the genuine
democracy had a ticket of its own, but
they did not give him what he wanted.
namely, money. The rich men of New
York who contribute literally to the sup
port of the ticket they favor have no
money for the Palmer and Buckner ticket.
They regard that ticket as a good thing
to have in the field, but as it has no
chance of being elected they don't care
to throw away money on 1t.
Chairman Bynums visit to New York
did not make him feel that the eyes or
the whole country are on him and the
campaign he is conducting. He returned
to indianapolis very much out of temper,
and with a disposition to tell the public
that the outlook for Mr. Bryan's defeat
is not so promising as to give the repub-
lican leaders pleasure. According to his
view the only way Mr.. Bryan can be de-
feated is by making a vigorous campaign
for Palmer and Buckner. To carry on
such campaign requires money. and that
Is not Forthcoming. From this time on
therefore the public is likely to hear less
and less of the Palmer and Buckner
ticket.

ager. One secret of his success as a man
ager, it is said is the fact that he comes

terse sentences that cannot be misunder-

1t is just as well to wait for a confirma-
ton of the story from Grand Rapids, that
Palmer and Buckner are to come down,
before accepting it as true. These gem
tlemen accepted a nomination for prin-

Nothing has occurred recently that would
be likely to shake their faith in or ad-
herence to those principles. The chances
are about one thousand to one that there
is no foundation whatever for the story.
