The Com mon Failing.

Mr.. Meekton had been out several
minutes later than usual the night be
fore and there was decided chilliness at
the breakfast table. A silence which
had seemed much longer than it was,
in fact, was suddenly broken by the
wife's remark:
Look at those senators and represent
tatives. See how they have fingered
and talked over the tariff"
Now, Henrietta, you surely can't
think of holding me responsible for
that
Not personally. But it shows a
trait that is common to your kind. 1t
shows how a man will grasp at any
thing as an excuse for not going home
when he ought to.'-Washington Star.

Misled by the Papers.

Every pursuit has it's own body Of
slang, otherwise known as technical
terms, and baseball is no exception.
Apropos of this fact the Baltimore
American reports a dialogue between
an old lady and her grandson.
Now. Henry said the dear old
lady, Il do hope You will never play
baseball"
why not, grandma?" asked Henry,
with natural surprise.
Because it is SO very dangerous"
Dangerous! Why, grandma, it isn't
any more dangerous than any other
game"
1T is exceedingly dangerous" said
the old lady, in a one of deep convic-
ton.
But, grandma, you never saw a
game and don't know anything about
it,
perhaps I don't, but l know it il
highly dangerous. Almost every day
the papers tell about men who have
died On the Bases

Welcoming the United Confederate
Veterans to Nashville for their annual
reunion, the governor Of Tennessee
uttered such sentiments as these: "The
hand OF secession will never be lifted
up again" Let the veterans who wore
the gray salute, with uncovered heads,
the national flag; it is the flag of the
l~nseparable Union" anarchy cannot
live on Southern soil" Herein is addi-
ton and good evidence that the Civil
Wal is ended, and that the South will
be loyal in the pending conflict of law
and order with the advocates of an
archy and disorder the trusts and the
combines.

The president of the American AssO-
citation Of Librarians said, in the recent
general conference of that body, that
the number Of volumes in the Libraries
OF this country had more than trebled
since 1876. The chief cause of this
great increase, he said, is a wholesome
growth of public perception OF the
value OF good books. This fact, even
more than the Willingness of the rich
to found and endow libraries, is a mat
ter for national satisfaction. Unused
libraries do not speak we'll for their

When the law exempting from taxa
ton $500 Of improvements and $500
OF personal property was pending in
legislature of the state Of Washington
last winter, all the leading lawyers
said 1t was certainly constitutional.
About two-thirds Of the land values OF
Washington are owned by spectators,
mostly ncn~-residents, whose taxes
would be increased by such exemption
of the fruits and industry, so a pressure
the pressure of great wealth-was
brought to bear IN the supreme court
of the state, and it dec: led the exemp-
the old law, in force for years, by
which $500 to each head of a family
was exempt, to be unconstitutional. Ths
court held hat even the clothing on
the back was not exempt, and that as
SCISSORS had the right to examine and
see if the undershirts, drawers, etc.,
worn by men and women We're of cot
ton, wool or silk, and assess them ac-
cordingly-at least this is the inter-
probation made by the encouragement
to the assessors.
This decision has at least the merit
of consistency, though there's nothing
in the text in the constitution of Wash
ington to justify it. The people Of the
state were practically unanimous for
the new law and are very hot in the
collar over the decision. Fortunately
the same legislature submitted a con-
stitutional amendment to be voted on
in 1898 for local option in taxation.
