PERSONAL.

Archbishop Benson left in the press an
important work on St. Cyprian. Its pub
lcation had been repeatedly delayed by
the more pressing claims of his office; but
the proof-sheets had been corrected and
the preface written before he started for
Ireland.
Louis Napoleon was of opinion that
no man should vote who was not married
Married men, he thought, had different
sentiment toward their country than the
unmarried, and a greater stake in it's well
fare. In his opinion, also, neither priests
nor soldiers should be permitted to vote
"A German young woman named Eliz-
abeth Opitz has just married a Japanese
noble, Viscount Siestro Matsudara, son
of the last feudal lord of Schmadara,
near Nagasaki, and a pupil in the For
estry School at Eberswalde. This is the
first marriage between a German and a
japanese of princely rank.
Mrs. Rudyard Kiping's grandfather
was a noted man. He was E. Peshine
Smith, who was appointed adviser on in
ternational law to the Japanese govern
ment, and who, during the five years he
served, negotiated many foreign treaties
for the Japs. He also introduced the word
telegram" for the more cumbersome
photographic dispatch"

Snved hN His Hair.

The youth passed up the pleasant valley
and then crossed the dry river bed below
the huge reservoir, says the Cleveland
Plain Dealer. AS he picked his way from
stone to stone gurgling sound smote
upon his ear. He looked up quickly
There was a break in the mighty dam!
Even as he gazed it grew larger. Already
it was hole as big as your hat. He knew
what this meant. He knew that soon, so
very soon. that hole would be a mighty
assure, and then-and then the great wall
would crumble and the Wild waters would
leap forth carrying death and destruction
for miles adown the smiling valley
The youth wiped the perspiration from
his brow and looked about him. No help
was in sight. Then he took off his hat
and, after one glance at the azure heav-
ems, shook his hair loose and thrust his
head in the opening!
There they found him.
When they pulled on his legs his head
came out of the hole like a champagne
csrk
What a beautiful fit" quoth the burgo-
master, who was also a bother. Then he
added: Young master, you have saved
our town. Tell us your name that we
may place it on gilded tablet in the gerat
town hall"
The young hero shook the moisture from
his marvellous swab of hair and replied
with modest dignity:
I'm Billy Downem, left halfback on
the Kickoff team and I've got all the
notoriety 1 want, see?"
And waving aside their urgent invita-
ton to stop over to luncheon, the gallant
youth, his shaggy locks swaying in the
breeze, strobe resolutely up the valley.

Joke on the wizard.

A few years ago the late Bill Nye and
Hermann, the magician, met for the first
time in. a small Ohio town, says the Chi
cago Times-TIerald Each knew the other
very well by reputation and from per-
sonal characteristics. but they never had
been introduced. BY chance they stopped
at the same hotel on the occasion re-
ferred to and were given seats at the
same table in the dining room.
They bowed politely and began talking
about the weather. each believing that
the other did not recognize his ivis-a-yis
Just as Nye raised his knife and fork to
cut a dish Of lettuce salad Hermann ut
tered cry of protest and surprise. Nye
stopped in establishment.
Excuse me, sir" remarked the wizard
but I thought I saw something queer
there in your lettuce"
The humorist carefully looked over the
salad, leaf by leaf, but found nothing and
again raised his knife to cut it. Again
he was stopped by a sharp cry from Herr
mann, who added, apologetically: Il beg
a thousand pardons, but 1 surely could
not have been mistaken that time. There
is something there. Excuse me"-and he
pointed to a large lettuce leaf, raised it
and disclosed underneath magnificent
diamond cluster ring worth several hun
dred dollars
Nye slowly picked up the ring and
without the slightest manifestation of
surprise, drawled out: This sort of thing
has gone just far enough. I'm continual
ly shedding diamonds wherever I go. Day
before yesterday l lost a solitaire in a
sugar-bowl in Pittsburg, and in Cleveland
this morning the chambermaid, in sweep
ing my room, found three or four more.
1t is positively giving me brain flag to
keep track of these things and I'm going
to give 1t up as bad job"
Reckoning to a waitress he slipped
Herrman's ring into her hand and said:
Here's trihe for you. Keep it to re-
member me by; it's yours"
1t took the owner of the ring about half
day to recover it, and it cost him sew
eral bottles afterward

weyIcr Takes the Field.

Some ten days ago Captain General
Weyler granted an interview to a repre-
sentative of the New York Herald in the
official palace in Havana. Among other
things. Weyler said that he would not
take the field in person against the IN
surgents. unless something then unfore-
seen transpired to make his presence at
the front necessary He pointed out that
in his palace in Havana, with railroads,
telegraphs, the navy and other shipping
at his command, he was in a position to
direct the whole Spanish campaign,
whereas if he were to take the field his
sphere Of usefulness would be reduced to
that Of merely a general commanding a d.
vision of troops That is, in Havana he
could be in communication with, and d.
rect each of the generals in the field,
while if he were in the field himself ne
could have rapid communication only with
the troops Immediately under his COM
mand.
The dispatches of yesterday, however,
contain the information that Gen. Weyler
has left Havana to take personal com
mand in Pinar del Rio Was his state
ment to the Herald's representative an
incident of the diplomacy of war; given
out for the purpose of misleading the
enemy with regard to his real intentions,
or has something happened that necessi-
tates the taking of extreme measures by
the captain general?
Events seem to be moving rapidly in
Cuba. Only a little more than week
ago it was announced that Maceo had
forced the trocha, which was thought by
the Spaniards to be impregnable. Then
came the information-how reliable can
not be said-that Maceo and Gomez were
TO form junction and attack the city
of Havana. This was followed by stories
Of the massing of insurgent forces in
Pinar del Rio, and the successful opera
lions of the insurgents in both that prov
lnce and the province of Havana. Within
the present week Consul General Lee has
been in conference with the President
with regard to the situation in the island,
under the Presidents instructions, and it
is rumored in Washington that the Span
ish minister to this country has informed
the President that he expects Cuba to
be conquered or be free in sixty days.
Along with these latter reports comes
that telling of Weyler's change of base
from the capital city to one of the out
lying provinces. What it all means can
only be conjectured. From all appear
ances, however, the meaning is that the
war in Cuba has reached its crisis, and
that it will probably be concluded. one
way or the other, before the new Presi
dent is inaugurated in this country.
Incident to the closing scenes in Cuba,
it may be that Weylers movement into
the field means that we are to have a.
period of butchery by his orders

MIR. McKinIcy,s Cabinet.

| Some of Mr.. McKinley's friends are CIV
ing him a great deal of advice in respect
TO the composition Of his cabinet. They
! have even made selections for the variou!
| cabinet positions. In one paper the state
ment is made that at is understood thai
Mr.. Mckinley has expressed desire thai
! Mr.. Cornelius n. Bliss of New York accep;
| the secretaryship of the treasury" The
same paper gives a biographical sketch
and picture of Mr. Bliss.
For each one of the cabinet places sew
eral persons have been named, and from
a number of sources there has emanated
a request that the sound money democrats
be given at least one cabinet position in
recognition of the fact that their votes
made the success of the republican ticket
possible.
Mr. Mckinley has more than three
months in which to form his cabinet, and
It is not probable that he has seriously
considered the name of any man for any
one of the cabinet positions. In fact
he is reported as having said day or two
ago that all the speculation relative to
cabinet positions that had been INDUCED
in thus far was premature. After he has
taken a rest, it is probable that he will
take up the matter of forming a cabinet.
and then we shall hear Of prominent repuD-
llcans being invited TO Canton to pay Mr.
Mckinley a visit.
1t is only natural of course, that the
suggestion should be made that a sound
- -,
cabinet position, but it would be a mis-
take for Mr.. Mckinley to have any one
In his cabinet not in thorough harmony
with the purposes and policies of his ad-
ministration and his party. Washington,
the first President of the republic, declar-
have a cabinet officer of a different polit-
zeal faith. He spoke from experience, and
it is a well-known fact that the late Judge
Gresham was not comfortable in Mr..
Cleyeland's cabinet. He was well treated
of course, but his old political friends
made him feel that he was traitor to
his party. No sound money democrat
could afford to go into Mr.. McKinley's
cabinet unless he intended to become a
republican.
Democrats who voted for Mr.. Mckinley
did not do so because they approved the
republican party and its principles, but
to rebuke their own party for adopting a
platform that was not in harmony with
democratic principles. They did not ex-
pect any of the Offices, if Mr.. Mckinley
was elected, and it would lessen the moral
effect of what they did if they should re-
quest Office or any of their number should
accept Office under republican admins

Both Got Mad.

He was a typical mountaineer from his
brogan shoes to his wool hat and he had
walked to a neighboring town to visit rel
atives, says the Washington Star. 1t was
his first visit away from his home. The
second day after he arrived he went to
the postoffice to get a letter from his girl.
He was sure it would be there as she
had tearfully told him she would write
him while he was away.
Air thar any mail fer me?" he inquir-
ed of the postmaster.

81 say, what's your name?" asked the
ostmaster in a little more positive man.

postmaster. sticking his head through the
window into the face of the young man.

yelled the mountaineer; 1T ]. Louder. and
If yer didn't belong ter Their gov'ment I'd

he begins to put on airs and I'm not one
to put up with It,"
The postmaster fished out a letter from
a musty hole and gave it to him, although
he was mad himself.

Made 1t n MIX Stew.

She was fair to look upon. Waves of
chestnut hair swept over her blanched
face like breakers over glistening sands
under a summer sun, says the New York
Herald. Her bejeweled fingers were
clasped in supplication, and her brown
eyes were filled with tears
The cannibal chief gazed down upon
her. The gloating of a thirst for human
gore sent the warm blood rioting through
his evil face. He drew his knotted war
club and sent it swinging in concentric
circles around his fuzzy, wool-tossed
head.

Amoslalsidecus, leader Of the cannibals,

fork and knife rang against delftware
plates with portentuous sound. His fell
lowers clamored for human stew and

The fair singer toyed with a whisp of

An Endorsement of CIeveIand.

Gov. Altgeld, Gov. Tillman and some
others who hate Mr.. Cleveland. because
he stands for what they oppose, have
said that one reason for democratic de-
feat was Clevelandism. We cannot
think they are sincere. They speak the
words of bitterness and hate and not Of
sound and unbiased Judgment.
The country pretty generally agrees
that the result of the election was an
Endorsement of Clevelandism. 1t was
Gen. Bragg of Wisconsin, who said of
Cleveland, 1--WE love him for the enc
mics he has made and Wisconsin gave
100000 majority in favor of a sound and
stable currency.
The issue was whether the currency
should be kept sound or that the country
should enter upon an experiment which
all experience teaches would give us a
deprecated currency. Mr. Cleveland has
kept the currency sound and his meth
DDS of doing 1t were condemned by Altg-
ED, Tillman and all the other free sill
yer leaders. Clevelands currency policy
was really a part of the issue, and the
lar majority that has never been equal
led. Even Illinois. Altgeld's state, which
gave democratic majority in 1892, Of less
than $1,000, gave a majority this year of
more than $4,000. BY such emphatic ma
jorities as those of Illinois, Wisconsin,
New Jersey, New York and Pennsylva-
MIA, did the people speak in favor of a
sound currency-the kind of currency in
sisted upon by Mr.. Cleveland.
Mr.. Mckinley has voted for free sill
yer coinage, and so have many of the
other republican leaders. Mr. Cleveland
has always insisted upon sound money,
and the sound money voters when they
were casting their ballots, felt they were
sustaining Mr.. Cleveland. Mr.. Cleve.
land can afford to do without the ap-
prevail of Messrs. Altgeld and TilIman as
long as he has the people at his back. He
stands for democratic doctrines-the doc
trines that will have to be embodied in
the democratic platform in 1900, if the
democratic party is TO have chance for
regaining control of the government.

If the Tilmans and the Altgelds continue

The Florida senatorship.

Among the men most prominently men
toned to succeed Senator Call of Florida
are w. d. Chipley, ex-Congressmen
Sparkman and Cooper and Mr.. Raney,
ex-chief justice of the state supreme
court. All of these men were classed as
favoring sound money before the Chicago
convention, and it is pretty safe to say
that, notwithstanding the fact that they
supported Mr.. Bryan because he was the
party's nominee they are against free sil>
yer coinage. 1t is quite we'll understood
that Senator Call cannot be reelected,
and that he cannot throw whatever
strength he has to any other candidate.
The great majority of the people of Flor
ida are anxious for immigration and cap
ital. They want to see the state prosper,
and they are pretty well satisfied that
neither Senator Gail nor any of those
who approve his views in respect to rail-
roads and other agencies for the up
building of the state, could do the state
any great service That being the case
they will in all probability do all they can
to elect as Senator Calls successor a man

prevailing sentiment of the people.
1t is apparent that if Florida should
send to the Senate a man who believes in
sound currency the state would be
greatly benefited in many important par
ticulars. Such action would encourage
those who have money to invest and who
are seeking homes to regard Florida with
great favor.
A senator will not be elected for several
months, but the fact that the chief matter
Of interest now in the state is the SEN
atorship shows that it is we'll understood
that the selection of the right sort of a
man for senator is a matter of very great
Importance from the standpoint of the
states welfare.
Some of the silver leaders in the demo-
cratic party seem TO think that free sill
yer coinage will be one of the demands of
that party four years hence. There is
good ground for thinking otherwise. For
instance, the southern people are not es,
pecialy anxious for free silver coinage.
They would like to have more freedom
in banking so that it would be easier to
borrow money. If that change should be
made it would be practically impossible
to carry the southern states for free sill
yer four years hence. Without the south
there would be nothing left for free si-
yer except the silver mining states.
This state as well as Florida would con-
suit its own interests by electing a sound
money man to the Senate. Both states
want capital and immigration and the
surest way to get them is to put into
places Of power and influence men who
favor a sound and stable currency.
