An Interesting Political Debate.

The most interesting political debate
of the coming campaign was held in
Miller's hall in this city, last Saturday
evening, on the question: "Resolvedj
That Populist principles must prevail
or revolution will result"
G. B. Montague contended for the
affirmative, and q. D. Steen for the
negative. Mr.. Montague held forth
In food Of fervid eloquence for an
hour, giving the political definition Of
the word Revolution" the inherent
right Of people to engage in revolu-
ton, quoting Macaulay as the author
who said, 1.-THE violence Of revolutions
are proportioned to the degree Of mall
administration Of the governments
that produced them.n
Mr.. Montague then dwelt on the
spirit Of liberty of the early colonists
and the causes leading up to the revo-
luton Of 1778, quoted the Declaration
of Independence and showed that the
constitutions Of the new states derived
their authority solely and directly
from the people. The wrongs we are
suffering under now are far greater
than those the revolutionary fathers
successfully rebelled against.

Then the late dead, and we hope

tences from the lips of the speaker, Its
unparalleled extravaganza, the out
rageous squandering of the money of
the people, the wives and daughters of
senators drawing pay as clerks, dis
grace 70 the state, and the best object
lesson to exemplify the fact that rep
resentatives do not represent.
No remedy for all these evils seems
possible except through the Initiative
and RefereDdum-let all the people
vote on those propositions In which all
the people are interested;-but that
amendment will never be peaceably
engrafted into our Constitution. The
money power will always defeat it,
Nothing but the night of American
manhood can ever accomplish this
most desirable result, and then only
through revolution.
Mr.. Steen paid glowing tribute to
the gentleman on the affirmative side,
whose arguments he die not attempt
to disprove, but rather to clinch. AT
the close Of his well chosen words an
invitation was extended to any who
desired to come forward and sign their
adherence to the Omaha Platform and
thus become members of the Populist
club of Lebanon. About 80 additional
names were added to the club.

FUN FOR THE CHILDREN.
Ways in Which They May Be Merry al

Rightly managed children's parties are

ment TO the mother to invite her child to
a party and let 1t so overeat itself with
food not appropriate to II that the ply

A very pretty menu for children. either
for lunch or supper, is bullion, thinly-
sliced cold turkey or chicken, the white
meat only; delicate ham sandwiches,
tiny biscuits, thin bread and butter. CO.
Goa, cake. ice cream and fruit.
Let one OF the little girls take the head
OF the table and pour the bullion and an
other the foot and pour the cocoa, and ii

tlons 1t will add to the interest Have
no bonbons except the very best choco-
lates. The favors and prizes should be
simple and appropriate for children. Cum

AN INTERESTING SIGHT.

An immense sperm candle. about five
feet in height, about five inches In di-
ameter. and Weighing perhaps sixty
pounds, may be seen slowly burning
down every day in the window of Schol-
field & Hauke's grocery store in Upper
town. corner Of 32nd street and Franklin
avenue.
II this enterprising firm had realized
the value Of advertising their scheme in
the usual way. this candle would have
been OF immense profit to them. but. as II
is. very few people have heard anything
about il. 1t Is well worth going from
any part of the city to see.
For every dollars worth of Christmas
goods bought at this store one guess
was allowed the purchaser as to the
probable number Of hours 1t would take
the candle to burn down. the three near
est guesses to be awarded handsome
prizes. The guesses range from eight
hours to 1900 hours and the result is anx-
iously waited for by those who would
avail themselves Of the offer, but the end
Is long way OF yet. as 1t has been burn
ing twelve hours per day since Christmas
and has burned down only five or six
inches and it is likely to burn longer
than the highest guess of 1900 hours.

Berlin. Jan. 1i.-Throughout the week
the Transyaal question has monopollzed

feeling In Germany that the Jameson

part Of the British government. In spite
OF official denials, and all Germany Is

In addition. the statement Is made by
financial paper that Barney Barnato,
the so-called "Kaffir King" who has a
considerable holding in Delagoa Bay, has
offered TO set over the same to the British
government. which is considering the
matter. This may explain the reported
purchase Of Delagoa Bay from Portugal
by the government of Great Britain.
The war feeling against Germany has
greatly subsidized and the issue Of the
trouble is freely described as a rebufI
for Emperor William. inasmuch as the
Nerman newspapers have changed their
tone and the papers printing what was
regarded as inspired articles, and what
at FIRST threatened Great Britain, arenow
distinctly climbing down. Another fea,
ture OF the situation is the feeling that

Generally speaking the number of

the farther from the equator the fewer
the thunderstorms. In the polar zones
1t is common for several years to pass

This is in great contrast to the region
Of perpetual RAIN" as people call that

rise immense clouds of vapor arise from
the earth and sea and cover the sky; the
lightning begins. flash following flash in
in quick succession. so that the thunder
seems to be continual. and the rain de-
scends in torrents.
In Ethioua the average number of
thunderstorms per annum is go whereas
in Java and Sumatra the number is s2
In Borneo, Hindustan, the African Gold
Coast and Rio de Janeiro the number Of
stormy days sink to between 50 and 60.
In Europe. Italy leads with a yearly
average of IS; Austria's total may be set
down at g; in Germany the number
varies according to the district from IS

OF course the aforementioned figures
cannot be taken as absolutely correct, for
1t is not an easy matter to make correct
observations. 1t is very probable that
with the continual improvements in our
methods of observing meteorological phe-
nomena We shall discover that the mum.
ber Of thunderstorms Is greater than we
at present believe. For instance, Paris
used to be credited with Is per annum,
but the erection of the observatory in the
Pare St. Maur has led to the discovery
that q is nearer the truth. This means
that half the thunderstorms-unIm important
ones, probably-were rendered inaudIble
by the noise and hustle of the city,
