A
THE World" had a cartoon about the
President, in which it represented him as
grabbing for a third term, while numerous
bogies, such as the Morgan syndicate and
the Venezuela Message, hold him back. This
may be gfatuitous, but it would be all right,
as politics go, were it net for the intrusion
of the Hawaiian humbug. One Of the bogies
is ex-Queen Liliuokalani, and in the back of
the picture is an American flag with the
legend, .This flag was hauled down at
Hawaii
The almost incredible turpltude of this at
tack lies in the fact that the sWorldp was
with the President in his Hawaiian policy.
1t endorsed everything he did and aid upon
the subject of annexation. Could anything,
then, be more utterly despicable than for it
to go back on its own position now in order
to get a stab at him?
This is what antiCleveland journalism is
made up OF.

An Amendment to the PRAYER

have lately heard from an old minister
who had retired from active service but
who still retained his seat in his former
pulpit while candidates were preaching
there. He always offered the closing
prayer, and after asking the Lord to bless
His servant who had broken the bread of
life to His people that day, was accus-
toned TO add, land may he shine as a
star Of the first magnitude for ever and
ever But it happened one Sunday that
very dull preacher occupied the pulpit,
and the good old minister was unutter-
ably bored. When it was time for the
prayer he offered the usual petition that
the Lord would bless His servant who
had addressed the people that day, and
here he paused His faith was not strong
enough to allow him to conclude the sen
tence in the customary way; so the con
scientious old man added firmly, "anc
may he shine as a star OF considerabl,
magnitude for ever and ever."-T Boston

among the natives of Alaska on his
recent trip to the Behring sea is the
preparation and sale of walrus wh'skers
for toothpicks. Nature has armed the
walrus with growth OF whiskers wh'eh
extend three or four inches out from its
snout, with the apparent motive Vi
enabling it to detect the presence OF an
iceberg before actual contact has result,
ed. These whiskers are quite stlii' and
this quality improves with age When a
walrus is killed, the natives proceed TO
pull out, with the aid of rude pineers'
each separate whisker After thorough 9.
driving, they are arranged in neat pack
ages and exported to China, where they
are considered necessary appurtenance
of the Chinese dude.

C.Spencer has been partly thrust aside, and
the past. Charles b. Spencer, of Kansas
City, brother of Herbert came to the
Philadelphia Hospital yesterday, and was
at once ushered into the young mans pres
ence. The recognition between the two
was mutual. Herbert grasped the extended
hand of his brother and said that he recog-
niled him as some one that lie had known
very weilin the past. Charles Spencer then
explained who he was.
"Whep you tell me that you are my
BROTHER Herbert then reina rked, II
seem to realize it. Yes, you are my
brother. My mind seems clearer. as though
q weight had been lifted from it, for you
are the first person that have met since
have been here toward whom feel a nat.
ural affection"
The two brothers conversed several hours
upon events connected with Herbert's past
life. but although the latter showed more
interest than formerly. lie failed to remem-
ber anything.
1t is the purpose Of Charles TO- take his
brother to tie home of his parents in
Kansas. What will be done with the
young man when lie reaches home is
not known. 1t Is thought, however, that
he will be kept at Eome and not placed
in q medical institution. His brother hopes
tina t when he reaches home and comes again
within the loving influence OF home life that
his lost memory will return.

New York, July "a Mrs. W. r. New
burger. formerly d resideut of Baltimore,
but now living In this city with her three
children. has unexpectedly discovered that
she is the owner or mining y, p,operty valued
at the neat little SUM of $500, 900.
Mrs. Newburger came to this country
thirty years ago, settling in Baltimore.
Sue was then but eighteen. W. r. New
burger three years later met her. and
they were married. He was button man
ufacturer of Baltimore, aud they lived N
that city with their three children, named
Blanche. Robert and Alfred, until the
husbands father died. That was in 1883.
The family was left in comfortable cir
cumstances, and no one thought of looking
over his trunk, which contained the dead
mans rapers The family moved to this
city, and not until one month ago did
the children examine the contents of the
trunk. On a particularly rainy Sunday
Robert went to the sarret OF the house,
and, after rummaging around in the trunk,
finally came across a paper yellow and
dusty with age, which upon examination,
was found to be deed executed by w.
P. Rose, of Gunnison county, Col, who
conveyed to W. r. Newburger thirteen
lots in the Petersburg Silver Creek mining
district. Colorado Eiated with his find,
Robert hurried downstairs and informed
his mother, brothers and sister
Lawyer Beckhardt wrote to the recorder
OF deeds OF Gunnison county, and received
the reply that the deed was duly entered
upon the books, and, furtherm ore, the in
telligence that the property covered on

of dollars.
