An interesting thing about Watts

London, is that it was first exhibited at
the Royal academy sixty years ago. in
the year of the queens accession. 1t is

His boyhood work was sold by Mr. Watts
years ago, lost sight OF and then repur-
chased by the painter for $25 from a

Norway has just given fresh indca-
ton of the extent to which her domestic
and foreign policy differs from that of
her sister kingdom of Sweden. For
whereas the latter applies TO krupp of

partment has entrusted the order for the
guns and plates needed for its fOrti1i-

M'KINLEY'S WAR SECRETARY
He Was the c ause of the First Rupture Re
tween Harrison and Blaine

Gen. Russell A. Alger has in his pos
session a letter from James G. Blaine
not typewriter, but penned in the char
acteristic chirography of the Maine
statesman-whchw would make interest
ing reading if it were intrusted TO pub
lie print.
In accepting the secretaryship of war
Gen. Alger has achieved the height CT
his political ambitions. Though ne was
a candidate for presidential honors IN
the memorable struggle which ended m
the nomination of Harrison, he was not
disappointed in the decision or the CON
vention Gen Alger did not expect to
he the standard bearer of his party HIS
candidacy however, gave him a ma
tional prominence, which he has retained
since that contest, and this was the
prime motive which actuated the De-
troit statesman in permitting his name
to be used.
He was not disappointed in the chi
cago convention, but he was most bitter
ly disappointed shortly afterward He
contributed as much as any other man
in the country to secure the election or
President Harrison, and was slated Tor
appointment to the war portfolio. Tue
matter was arranged in Indianapolis,
whittier Gen. Alger went in response TO
q. summons from the president-elect.
Immediately after that conference Gen.
Alger gave me an interview, in which he
freely discussed national political af-
fairs, but frankly requested that moth
ing be said about the war portfolio un-
til the announcement of his appointment
should be give nout in Indianapolis.
That announcement never came. In
stead Of it, word was brought to Detroit
that Gen. Harrison had been confronted
by certain unlookedfor complications
which might make the appointment of
Gen. Alger very embarrassing to the
incoming administration. Gen. Alger
lost no time in calling upon the presi-
dent-elect at his home in indianapolis.
He stated what he had heard and said
that IL his appointment would in any
way embarrass the administration, he
would relieve Gen. Harrison Of that COM

The blind split in two,
So she tumbed right through.

And said she was dead.

chester, N. Fl.
For some time Mrs. Kicker has been
collecting recommendations from infuen-
tial men. She is the first woman who has
ever aspired in any practical way to the
high position of an ambassador of thu
United States. To reporter she de-
clared her determination to leave no
stone unturned in her quest for ambassa-
dorlal honors.
Il ask for the place" she said, "for l
think the time has come when women
should be recognized in the diplomatic
service and because i believe l have
ability and strength of character enough
to warrant my appointment
III Luther Mckinney can fill the posi-
tion | am free to remark that can over

exclusive prerogative of men,"
Mrs. Kicker was admitted to the su-
prenIe court of the District of Columbia
in 1882, standing at the head of her class.
in which there were eighteen men. She
was admitted to practice before the SUI
preme court of the United States at
Washington in 1891. She opened the
New Hampshire bar to women in June,
1890.
AS to her political activity, she was the
first woman in the country who tried TO
vote. In March, 1870. she went before
the selectmen of Dover, n H.. and asked
to have her name put on the check list.
She went to the polls three days later
and offered the straight Republican

A MODERN NOTION
Ancients Were Content With Simple Mode
Of Distinguishing Eschother

Since the adoption of its constitution
in 1777. New York has had thirty-one
governors. Not one wrote his middle
name out in full. Fourteen had no mid
die names. There never was candi-
date for governor with the singly eX
ception of John Boyd Thatcher, who
spread his name out to the fullest eX-
tent and reveled in pride when he looked
upon it. To John Boyd we should feel
indebted, says the New York Press. 1t
is the literary instinct, the cult of James
Russell Lowell. Henry Wadsworth
Longfellow, Willim Cullen Bryant, Will
lam Gilmore Simms, Oliver Wendell
Holmes, George Edgar Montgomery
and Laura Jean Libbey which we must
thank for the knowledge of the Boyd
in Thatcher'S name.
But for the cult mentioned in the fore
going paragraph we should probably
never have known Henry Cabot Lodge,
the handsomest of senators. He would
have been simply Henry C. Lodge, which
sounds strange. The swell society set,
in order to distinguish themselves from
men in trade and walters in waiting,
have adopted the first initial and the full
second name, as. for instance, T. Suf-
fern Tailor, J. Edward Simmons, d.
Russell Brown o. Vincent Coffin, J.
Warren Goddard J. Seaver Page, and
j. Harper Bonnell.

CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME
DENVER, Col, Feb. THE sermon
of Rev. Myron w. Reed, pastor of the
Broadway Temple association, was on
the question of giving relief to the needy
in foreign lands. The Broadway The
ater was packed. He announced his sub
ject as Charity Begins at Home, and his
whole argument was in opposition 10
the relief funds for India and Armenia.
He said this government was an ex-
pertinent and it was for the benefit of all
mankind'and that 1t should succeed. For
that reason charity should be confined to
Americans. He said: Il hear that the
churches of Chicago are requesting.the
farmers of Illinois to send in their corn

Oysters Are Best In America

"There is no country on earth where
the oysters are of such delicious flavor
as in the United States" said Mr.. John
w. Stratton of London at the Riggs. Il
come over here about twice year and
1 revel in oysters all the time, if the BIZ
valves are in season. The oysters we
get in England, or anywhere in Europe,
look like a travesty on the product of
your waters. They are small, lean, wa
terry and nearly taateless. After ex-
periencing the kird that comes from the
bed Of the Chesapeake, no man of cpl
curean taste cares to even try the Euro
pean imitation again. 1t only s2.ndens
him to think of what the real article is.
Certainly the Lord was goodIte the Yam

it exists here in such inexhaustfble
abundance" e."-Washngton Post.

A Finished Work

Although Massachusetts as state is
not finished and laid away, it seems to
have attained to the ultimate in at least
one very important direction. The rail-
road commissioners in their annual re-
port state that no increase in the steam
mileage was made last year; the same
report was made as to 1895 and 1894 The
latest addition-and it may be the last
was made prior to June 80, 1893 In view
of these facts the commissioners deem it
proper to conclude that, so far as new
lines are concerned, railroad construc-
tion in this state has practically come to
an end. d."--Washington Post.
