CONDEMNED BY THE ADMINS
TRATION.

The letters Of Secretary OF War La
mont and Secretary Of the Interior
Francis and Assistant Postmaster
General Maxwell are in line with all
other expressions OF opinion by mem
bers of the administration except the
late Hoke Smith. Without any reserve,
all declare against the Chicago plat
form and nominations on the ground
that they are directly hostile TO Demo-
cratic principles, and not entitled to
the support of Democrats. President
Cleveland himself has judged it wise
not TO speak in person, and his I'M
popularity among Democratic voters in
some Of the states upon which, If close
at all, the contest might depend, posi-
bly, makes it judicious for him to exer-
else the right pertaining to his office.
For, as chief executive. he NAV with
propriety refrain from e~ndeavoring 70
influence a choice Of his successor, al
though he also has undlminished rights
as a private citizen. If he deems it for
the public good to exercise them. In
view Of the nearly unanimous action OF
his associates in the administration,
there can hardly be a question as to
the presidents convictions, whether he
thinks fit to express them personally or
not
II is one Of the strangest sights in
the history Of the country which the
Democratic party now presents. Never
before has the administration repre-
senting a party victorious at the pre-
vious congressional and presidential
elections found it a duty openly to op-
pose the platform and candidates Of
that party. Everyone knows the rea-
son. Never before has any party 50
violated all its pledges, so trampled
upon its WI principles. and outraged
all that was honorable and consistent
in its own history. as the so-caIled
Democratic party did at its convention
at Chicago. The mere advocacy Of free
coinage, in view Of the essential change
in monetary conditions since previous
canyehtions were held, would now in
volve a naked population Of solemn
pledges many times repeated, since
free coinage would not now be possible
without dishOnor Of the nation. repu-
diation of many pledges made in Dor

one section and one class for the bene-
fit Of another. But the Chicago conven-
ton went much farther, and in making
war on the national banks. demanding
unlimited issues Of paper by govern
ment and by state banks, denouncing
the enforcement Of United States laws
by the executive, and threatening re-
construction Of the supreme court for
partisan ends, proposed a revolution
destructive Of all rights and all prop
erty.
The deliberate hostility Of the admin
Lstration to the action Of the party il
officially represents, is therefore JUS
titled, not merely by fidelity to the
principles and convictions Of that par
ty but by the far higher obligation Of
duty to the nation. Charged with the
enforcement of law, the officials Of the
government would be false to their

an organized movement to defeat and

The world has always been divided into two classes who have saved and those who have spent, the thirty and the eXtravagant. The builders Of all the houses, the mills, the bridges and ships and accomplishments of all other great works which have ren- dered man civilized and happy, has been done by the savers; and those who have wasted their resources have al- ways been their slaves.

 A sensation of relief is noticeable when the patient is taken to grass. so to speak, which leads some physicians; to the belief that the change in the rarity of the air, slight as it is. has a peculiar effect upon certain very sensi- tive organizations. Others think that the constant trips in the elevator cause. slight disarrangement cf the nerve centers, which brings on the condition referred to. In any case there is nc doubt that a new ailment has come among us with the advent of the sky scraper.

"FoRM" IN BICYCLING.
How Society People Go a WheeIing-At-

The form" of bicycling is beginning to be studied. Grooms on wheels must follow their mistresses as they did on horseback; it is probably only a ques- tion of a short time when the lady's maid will have to include wheeling with her other accomplishments to secure a situation. On the road the woman who wishes to ride la mode has to know a number of little things that are over looked by another woman, just as the smart set have a code for riding and driving that is as memorable as that they should not eat with their knives or put sugar on oysters.

GENESIS OF A "CRANK."
The Effect of Large Ideas Upon Small
 Minds.

One of the most interesting of psy- chological studies, says the Century, is the effect of large idea upon a small mind. A large idea entering a large mind balances and dignifies it; it's ef- feet upon a small mind is often con1- pletely upsetting. The man becomes Intellectually top-heavy and unsteady.
 When one becomes observant of this phenomenon he finds much to amuse and again much to deplore. He is amused, for instance, to notice the re-
 suit of this overlooking throughout a long career. Where a subject is thus acted upon by succession of ideas, each embodying an important truth which the man is incapable of carrying, his receptivity to impression proves to be his bane The sudden realization for the first time of a fundamental prin- ciple makes a monomaniac of him.

Ordinary Jackknife.
 J. c. Hearing, who was hunting and trapping in the Blue mountains, few niles west of Elgin, met with little ad- venture with a bear recently that might have proved rather serious to him had il not been for the intervention of one of his dogs, says the Portland Oregonian. He was engaged in setting traps. and as he had considerab ble weight to carry he had no weapon with him except a jaell- knife, and on his rounds his dogs dis covered the winter quarters of bear :n 9. big hollow tree. The bear was at home, and was pretty much alive, as sub- sequent events proved. As bear peltsare quite valuable, Jake was quite anxious to secure this one, but was afraid that f he went to camp, a mile and half dis tant, bruin would escape, so he lasIcd lis pocketknife to the end of a stick and attempted to cut the animals S throat. He only succeeded in inhicting some pain ful flesh wounds, which so enraged the brute that it suddenly came out of it's hole, and was almost on him whell one oI his dogs made a sudden onslaught on the animals rear, which diverted his attention long enough to enable Jake to dodge behind tree, and the dogs soon made it so tropical for the bear that it was glad to take refuge in a tree, where they kept it until gun was procured from camp. when the animal was quickly dispatched.

BIG JOnN MORIARTY.
Said to Be the TalIest and Strongest Man
 in Eastern Maine.

in Eastern Maine.
 John Moriarty, known all over east ern Maine as Barney kelley's Giant, died in Oldtown hospital recently ot typhoid fever, says the Lewiston Even ing Journal. He has been for nearly two years employed as construction hand on the Bangor & Aroostook rail road, and later on the new Ashland branch, where he became sick.
 Moriarty stood 6 feet 9s4 inches in his stocking feet, and generally weighed 240 pounds. Had he been fat his weight would have been enormous. But he was very lean. Why, said Barney Kelley. you could feed the giant on porterhouse steak and eggs and he wouldn't gain pound; but he was an awful tough mani"
 His arms were very long and he had hands as powerful as the paws of a gorilla All over his body the muscles stood out in Jumps and cords. and his strength was immense. He could doas much work as two ordinary men, and on that account his services were al- ways III QendIlU at lllOIt tudu COHililol wages. He was especially serviceabie as a derrick man-he could turn the heavy crank all day without tiring. An ax was like a toy in his hands. cant-dog like walking He could up end and shoulder small log or piece of timber that two ordinary men could barely lift, and in every department of hearty manual labor he was very Hercules.
 Many stories are told of the giants mighty strength. Once, when two saucy woodsmen ''guyed' him about his towering height, he seized them by the shoulders, one in each hand, and knocked their heads together till their teeth rattled--and they were two good sized men.
 At another time some toughs came into barroom where he was and pro- ceeded to "clear the place out" Mori- arty took them, two at a time, and pitched them half way across the street as though they were so many ninepins.
