THE GRAND OLD MAN.

Gladstone'S recent speech in Liver
pool in behalf of humanity had the
ring of eloquence, the intensity of hui
man feeling and the courage of the
Gladstone OF other days. 1t was
wonderful spectacle when the Grand
Old Man. whose years had already
passed fourscore, came out OF the re-
tirement of private life to lift his voice
in protest against the barbarism of the
sultan and the apparent acquiescence
in il of England and other great pow
ers.
Mr.. Gladstone devoted himself espe-
cially to the charge that England alone
can do nothing TO protect the helpless
Arnenians. He showed that England
has in the past stood up for human
rights and liberties, as in the case of
Greece and Bulgaria, without provok-
ing a general European war. He insist
ed that Tngland could take the initia-
tive in protecting human life against
Turkish atrocities without any danger
of having to fight the rest Of the world.
If il were necessary to fight Turkey he
would welcome the issue, for war were
better than to have England continue
its policy OF cowarily subservience and
indifference 10 the great wrongs that
had stirred the blood of humanity the
world over.
SGladstone is still England's Grand
Old Man, whose voice, never more
eloquent was never raised in a cause
more just than when pleading for Eng
land to do her duty toward the Chris
tan subjects OF the brutal Turk.

SAN DIEGO, June 21-Hon w w
Bowers, member of Congress from the
Seventh District, is at home. He was
interviewed regarding the work of the
St Louis Convention, and as he is and
has been a free coinage man his views
are interesting. He said:
Il indorse everything they did at ST.
Louis with the exception of the gold
plank in the platform. They could no
more keep from nominating Mckinley
than the country can from electing
him. l am a free coinage man; there
fore, the gold plank is not according
to my wishes, but the great majority
of the party has decided that it wants
gold and | Will stand by the party I
will work for silver, but strictly within
the lines of my party. Protection is the
one great issue al present and McKin-
ley is the logical representative of that
policy. You can split on financial policy
and everything else, but Mckinley is
going in, because he represents what
the people want-protection to Ameri-
can labor and American manufactures. :"

PERRY BELMONT TALKS.
Prosperity Depends on How Repub-
Leans Interpret the Platform.

PARIS, June 21-In the course of an
Interview to-day with a reporter of the
United Press Hon. Perry Belmont made
the following remarks about the gold
plank adopted by the ST. Louis Repub-
lican Convention: IF the Republican
platform adopted at ST. Louis shall be
Interpreted by Mckinley and the Re-
publican party as a mandate to obey
the coinage law of 1873 and coin no
more silver dollars until international
free bimetallic coinage on a fixed ra-
ito may come, and if it is intended to
resolutely enforce the mandate by di-
plomacy and legislation and accom-
plish international bimetallism, the
work done will be beneficial, but the
contrary will happen if the platform
shall be interpreted as permitting or
encouraging the renewal of treasury
silver purchasing and the coinage by
the Government of more fifty-cent dol
lars on the theory of the repudiated
Sherman law of 1890.
Even a country SO rich in natural
European war disturbances, so sue
cessful in industry and vigor of its TO-
100000 of people, cannot safely endure
such continual drain but the Repub-
lean Convention adjourned without
even suggesting an adequate remedy.

in his effort to stem what is called the
silver tide and to change the apparent
silver complexion of the Chicago Con-
vention into one for gold. The first
practical move in that direction made
here has been to secure a list of all the
delegates-elect to the Chicago Conven-
ton More than two-thirds of these
have been chosen. All the delegates
chosen who are either instructed for
silver or are believed to incline to silver
will at once be communicated with per-
sonally. These delegates for weeks past
have been receiving sound money" lit
erature from the New York and Boston
Reform Clubs, but they will now, it is
asserted be solicited by letter Efforts
will also be made to ascertain their
standing in their communities and
what influence, if any, of a local nature
can be brought to bear on them to
change their views on the money ques-
ton To this end bankers and mer-
chants in the communities in which
the delegates reside will be written to
for information, and when in hand this
information will be used to bring any
pressure from their Democratic fellows

THE GROWING CHILD.
Even the Wisest of rlothers Hay
Take TIistakes.

A mother is too apt to take for grant
ed the confidence of her growing son
and daughter, says "Harpers Bazaar"
She has led them through childhood in
to young manhood and WomanhOod.
She unraveled all their little perplexi-
ties and has been the recipient of all
their childish joys and sorrows. As
children they concealed nothing. She
assumes, without thinking, that this
state of affairs continues into their
adult life. She is sure she knows all
2Sout her children whereas the fact
may be that she knows nothing at all.
They outgrew her long ago.
When this difference began the young
boy or girl could scarcely say. Some
times it is sudden, sometimes gradual
1t is certain that with adolescence a
new life comes to each individual, and
that the mother who would retain the
trust and aid in forming the character
of the budding man or woman must
make a special effort to do so.
1t is here that mothers often make
grave mistakes, and never regain the
forfeited friendship of their sons and
daughters. Some women persist in
treating their children as children long
after they are grown men and women
and require the implicit obedience and
belief of a child from an adult of rea-
son and experience. Other women
make an equally unfortunate error in
metaphorically washing their hands
of the child they have reared so soon
as it tries to act upon its own judg-
ment. Il have nothing more to 90
with your actions. Now, do as you
please" That is their position
One attitude represses confidence, the
other rejects it. Both are antagonistic
to natural law. Children must become
men and women and we have no right
to be angry at or to repel the idea that
it is So But surely we may value the
friendship and trust and love of these
men and women as highly as we valued
the child's faith and loving reliance
That parent is wise who perceives in
time the change, and who studies the
needs of this formative period, who
adapts herself to the new phase and
who begins by new methods to retain
the child'S trust, while gaining the
mans confidence.

BTCYCLIST KILLED.
His Wheel Ran Off Bridge Near
Santa Cruz.

SANTA CRUZ, June 21-Edward P.
Baker, retired clergyman, riding a
bike on the Ben Lomond road ran off a
wagon bridge near Ben Lomond last
night and fell a distance of fifty feet
into the dry bed of the creek His skull
was crushed and death is believed to
have resulted instantly. The accident
occurred between 6 and 7 O'Clock but
the body was not found until = O'Clock
this morning.
Mr.. Baker had recently returned to
Oakland from several years stay in
Honolulu. and with his wife had come
to Ben Lomond and taken a cottage for
the summer: He was about 60 years
old and in feeble health, and had been
riding a bike for exercise. When he did
not return from his outing last night
the family became uneasy and sought
him. The bicycle trail was traced to the
bridge, and the search was given up
until this morning when the body was
found. There is no guard rail on the
bridge, and it is presumed that in run
ming down the incline approach his
wheel became unnanageable.

Embarrassing.

Penrose Fitzgerald. the member for
the town Of Cambridge, is a breezy,
popular freshman, with a rich voice, a
fluent delivery, and sailing masters
certificate. Mr.. Fitzgerald is rather
short sighted, and with so weak a
memory for names and faces that for
some years he never could distinguish
between Mr. Barring, Mr.. WhitmOre, or
Mr.. Baumann, or between George All
scpp and Sir George Elliot. Once this
weakness had an embarrassing result,
according to a lobby story which, if not
true, is ben trOvatO. Niscount Kill
coursie, who sat in the SO Parliament
for a western constituency, became the
Earl of Cravan, but being an Irish peer
retained his seat. The new Earl spoke
to Mr. Fitzgerald in the lobby, and OBJ
serving a puzzled look, was good
enough to say pleasantly: Il can see
you don't know who I am. My name is
Cavan" ''Of course, of course, my dear
fellow" was the answer, but for the
moment, l admit, l took you for that
ass Kilcoursie. London Saturday Re-
