Ready Obedience.

No people on the globe can adjust
themselves so readily to circumstances
as the American people. They can
wind up an exciting campaign at fever
heat, and the morning following its
close be as calm and collected as II re-
moved generation from the election.
All this comes from the fact that we
are q self-governing people. We have
a voice in the election Of the men who
make an execute the laws OF our land.
We submit readily TO the powers that
be because they are our agents. The
actions Of our lawful representatives
are TO all intents and purposes our own
actions. Ii Is our duty then TO adjust
ourselves 10 the circumstances and
make the most Of the bargain we have
on hand, and we always do it

The Reason HhY.

The army OF the unemployed is large
one, and IL Is kept large by choice Of
its members. Too many people want
something for nothing. Too many in
position believe that their employers
cannot get along without them. Too
many believe that the proper thing is
to barely do the work assigned them
in barely passable manner and then
stop.
This Is not enough. Every one should
do his work In the best manner possi-
BILE, consistent with neatness and dis
patch. Too many are looking for ''soft
snaps" When one arrives at the con-
clusion that his services are indispen.
sable and does his work along that line
OF belief, his dismissal is not far off: II
will be sure to come. II you win work
for your employers interest and make
for him more than the amount he pays
you, you will be certain TO retain your
position and be contented and happy
for honest work brings contentmeni
and happiness.

Most readers haye forgotten what the
Dingley bill provides. Now that there
is prospect Of its passage summary
of its provisions seem desirable. II is a
temporary revenue bill. II would ex-
pire by its own terms on August /, 1898.
What revenue it would yield it is diff
cult to say. Mr.. Dingley expected s40,-
900. 900 increase from it: treasury ex-
perts put the gain at a lower figure.
II takes wool of all kinds off the free
list and puts upon 1t duty six-tenths
as great as that of the Mckinley tariff.
To the present duty on woolen goods il
makes like addition. Itdoes precise
ly the same for lumber in all forms. 1t
adds is per cent OF the Mckinley rate,

n Smart Arithmetic Man.

A Chinaman died, leaving his pro-
perty by win to his three sons as fol-
lows: ''To Fuenhuen, the Oldest, one
half thereof; 10 Nupin, his second son,
one-third thereof, and to Ding-bat. his
youngest, one-ninth thereof"
When the property was inyentoried
1t Was found TO consist Of nothing more
nor less than seventeen elephants, and
II puzzled these three heirs how TO di-
vide the property according 70 the
terms Of the win without chopping up
seventeen elephants, and thereby
seriously impairing their value. Fin
ally they applied TO wise neighbor.
Suenpunk, for advice. Suenpunk had
an elephant OF his own. He drove it
into the yard with the seventeen, and
said:
"Now, we will suppose that your
father left these eighteen elephants;
Fuen-huen, take your half and depart. =
So Fuen-huen took nine elephants and
went his way.
Snow, Nu-pin," said the wise man,
stake your third and 60" So Nu-pin
took six elephants and travelled.
'Now, Ding-bat," }" said the wise man.
take your ninth and begone." So
Ding-bat took two elephants and va.
moosed. Then Suen-punk took his own
elephant and drove him home again.
Query. Was the property divided
according to the terms OF the will?

CLEVELAND, o., Nov. pa close
friend OF Chairman Hanna to-day ex-
planned under what circumstances MIR.
Hanna would accept place in the
cabinet.
"Mr. Hanna" he said, twill either
go into the cabinet or he win be the
next Republican senator from Ohio.
MIR. Hanna's course must be decided by
Senator John Sherman. Both the chair
man and Mr.. Mckinley understand
that, and they are awaiting to learn
what position the Irishman will take.
Mckinley wants Mr.. Hanna to accept
the treasury portfolio, but Hanna has
other aspirations. He believes 1t would
be greater honor to be senator from
Ohio. But Sherman stands in the way.
Mckinley will offer Senator Sherman
the position of secretary of state and II
he declines to go into the cabinet, then
Mr.. Hanna will accept the position OF
secretary of the treasury. Should Sher'
man decide 10 become one OF McKin-
ley's advisers, thus vacating his seat in
the senate, Mr.. Hanna will become his
successor. Mckinley will not decide
on his course until he learns exactly
what position Senator Sherman will
take"
This same friend OF Hanna said that
IL had practically been decided thai
Congressman Boutelle of Maine woult
be secretary of the navy. Despite tbs
fact that General Miles and Col. Fres
Grant held conference with Mckinley
neither of them, says this gentleman
will get the portfolio OF war.

gagged specially by the Washington Jockey
Club. The expert VIII arrive in a few
Gays ana VIII complete the work now
well under way.
Ii VIII be remembered by visitors to
Benning on previous race meeting that the
steepleChase track is within the running
track, leads out by a chute to the bills
and hollows to the west. Returning the
finish is in full view of the clubhouses and
grandstand
The best jumping horses and the cele-
brated hurdle riders of the country will
contest in the SteeplechaSe events, and
Washington is assured of exhibitions in
this branch of the sport superior to any
ever before attempted on this side OF the
water.
The recent fall of snow viii not injure
the running track, but, to the contrary,
the slush will loosen the ground and make
it the better for racing. 1t is what is
termed a quick track; that is. it recoyers
rapidly from usage and from rains or
severer infections of the weather.
But for the blizzard, large number of
horses would have reached the track in the
past several days, but owners of the Sllken-
coated flyers are that careful of their rich
blooded beauties that they take no chances
on impairing their very sensitive health.
Superintendent Garman has applications
for stable room for 600 horses and it is his
opinion that the full capacity of the tracks
accommodations will be taxed to house the
strings of thoroughbreds,
Recent arrivals at the track were the
stables of MeSSrS. Oliver and Clancy, OF
New York, and Mr. Jennings, Of Baltimore.
