He meant to quit it away back in the
eighties, but when he and Roscoe Conk-
ling were forced out of the senate and
out of power by James g. Blaine in
June, 1881, he resolved to stay in, play
his hand through and get even with
State Senator William II. Robertson,
Speaker James W. Hustled and others
who tlowned him. He did too.
The late John Kelly, the great leader
of Tammany Hall before Richard Gro
ker, broke down after the election of
faithfully for Cleveland's success that
his health gave way under the strain,
but almost Immediately after election
he was confidentially informed by one
close to the new administration that
Tammany could not hope for anything
from Cleveland. That broke his heart,
and he died. Kelly was as honest as the
day was long and never turned penny
out of politics. Intrenched as he was in
power for SO long time, he could have
made $40, 100000 in secret ways, were
he SO disposed. but he died leaving an
estate of about $500, 600, every dollar of
which was made out of business VEN
lures.
Richard Croker, leader of Tammany
Hall after John Kelly. almost broke
down in health Immediately after the
labors of the campaign of 1892. He suf-
fered from indigestion and insomnia.
He wisely, however. gave up all work
and took trip abroad, where he would
be safe from political opportunities.
Later on, by the doctors advice, to the
deep grief of the organization, he re-
signed the leadership. He was compelled
to choose between health and power,
and he took the former. Mr.. Croker is
credited with having lot of money,
but will gamble on it he never made
it out of politics.
There are few men, very few men,
who know when to quit politics grace
fully and in time. Rather they are men
who take up politics as means to an
end and do not plunge into it's follies-
the struggle for mastery, the placing of
patronage and the like. Bourke Cock
ran, Ex-Governor George 7. Hoadly of
Ohio and ex-Attorney General Russell
are examples of this class, but they are
lawyers, and all politicians are not
lawyers.
Therefore say that man is happier
in any other vocation than that of poll
tics. But, then, politics is a passion,
like gambling, which it is hard to drop
wish could. T. d. SULLIVAN.

are more than half civilized, living j,
vast communal dwellings of adobe,
where they have resided some of them
from time immemorial. This is much
abused word, immemorial, but / use il
advisedly, as expressing time to which
the memory of living man goeth not
back, for the Indians have no tradition
that is authentic of their beginnings
here, and the white men know only
that they were found here when the first
Spaniards arrived in 1536 or 539.
The various pueblos are found scat
tered over the area of New Mexico and
Arizona, most of them distant from the
railroad, but few within sight of it.
Only ten miles from this thriving city
of Albuque que is one of the smaller
ones, known as Isleta, and Sc miles
west of this city is Laguna, which is a
most interesting village to study. But
the most picturesque of them all, and
pueblo which may be taken as perfect
type, is that of Acoma, which is perched
upon d mesa, or table rock, 800 feet
high and Z 900 feet above the sea. When
/ first visited it, there was no other
white man in the pueblo, yet was re-
ceived Hospitality and entertained with
the best the Indians had. The top of the
mesa is reached only by three steep
trails, all but one being inaccessible tc
any but Indians. Fierce battles took
place here when the Spaniards at
tempted to take Acoma, and at one
time the fighting lasted three whole
days. Acoma is about 10 miles from
the railroad, which is left at or neal
Laguna. Another and very famous
pueblo is that of Zuni, about 40 miles
south from Fort Wingate, where some
900 Indians occupy 200, 900 acre reser.
walton. All these Pueblos are good In
dians, who prefer agricultural pursuits
to fighting and the raising of vegetables
to lifting white mans scalp.

ways tell his exact position by tasting

on "soundings'' should take journey
across the continent he could easily To-

Kansas the water is limy, reminding

When New Mexico is reached, the

acle. You have leaped at once from the
occident to the orient. Our Yankee
skipper, unless he had voyaged to Egypt
or North Africa, would be entirely
"thrown out of gear" by the radical
changes in his surroundings. He would
see mountains with sharp, serrated
edges, toothed like saw, some snow
capped, others polished like crystals,
and all glistening beneath sky of
orient azure. The soil, too, has changed.
In fact, the native of Kansas or Mis-
souri, would aver that there was no soil
at all. 1t is thin, that is fact, and the
grass seems SO scanty that, as Chicago
man once said, ''cow will have to
hustle~to find enough to chew" Even
the crows, it is said, have to tote their
rations' when flying across New Mex
leo. But, like many other things seen
from distance, the New Mexican soil
pans out better than it looks. In the
mountains it is rich in many mineral,
and on the plains it is valued for it's
own sweet sake 1t is here that we first
encounter the humble 'adobe" hut,
taking the place of the Kansas "dug

grander proportions.
A more interesting people than the
Mexicans made use of the adobe as
building material hundreds, perhaps
thousands, of years before the latter
came to this region. These were the

NEW YORK, May 11.--Political lead
ership is not the bed of roses the aver
age citizen believes it to he. Neither
does it---nor politics generally for that
matter-yield the financial returns peo-
pie think. The same amount of energy,
ingenuity and perseverance applied to
any other field of effort, commerce, law,
art or medicine as is employed in po-
litical leadership, or even subleader-
ship, would make almost any man, un-
less he were "Puddin head Wilson,"
happy, healthy, prosperous. free OF all
care and ON good terms with himself
and the rest of mankind. That beatific
condition is not the lot of your politi-
clan, l don't care how high up or how
fortunate he may appear to be. Almost
invariably thwarted ambition-for ev-
cry man who goes into politics is ambi-
tious-eats into his soul, and every
friend whom he cannot place in Office,
no matter how hard he may try, be-
comes either an open or a secret enemy

Thomas G. Platt once told that to the
late John J. O'Brien, Chester A. Ar
thurs pet lieutenant in New York city.
Senator Platt and O'Brien had been dis
cussing the question Of patronage, and
the former was at his wits ends how to
please the "boys' and yet satisfy, or at
least pacify, the turbulent aristocrats of
the Union League club, who supply the
"sinews of war" in election times. SEN
ator Platt could not solve the problem,
hence his irascible remark. He had been
ailing, too lit was right after Harrison s
election in 1889, and suffered from dys-
pepsia and insomnia. Everybody thinks
Senator Plat is a stole, impervious to
all attacks, SO l quote you that express
sion to show that he is human.
Mr.. Platt is business man of enor-
nous ability, and out of business he
made the little money, say, $500, 900,
he has. He never made dollar out Of

animal like wolf loped across my field

was following me, if it was ''sure

goods and make them up with much
style, and then charge $1,000 or per-
haps little less for them. This place
is noted for its style. l think there is
usually more style than anything else
but price. Still, it seems to me that the
amateur may be able to follow the de-
signs and develop quite as stylish frocks
for herself. The materials are not so
expensive, but the way they are put to-
gether makes them elegant.
A boating gown really ought to be of
such material and color as will bear
much hard usage, but singularly
enough, the average young lady prefers
something that can be ruined i'll ten
minutes A model boating dress was of
white serge, the skirt bordered with
one wide and one narrow row of dark
blue soutache. The waist was an odd
tumble of striped flannel in blue and
white, as an undervest in jersey style.
Over this was a waist of the serge, with
the shoulders cut away to allow ber
tina shaped sailor collar. This was of
dark blue serge, with white braid. At
the bottom of the waist the blue serge
was arranged to represent figaro. Lit
tie ruffies of the serge were very much
out of place at the shoulders, while the
blue cuffs trimmed with white braid
looked neat and pretty at the wrists. I
think if the color was reversed-that is,
the dress of the dark blue and the trim
ming white-it would be more profit
able. A sailor hat now is of rough
straw as often as of smooth chip or
pressed leghorn. A stiff little bunch of
loops or quilts gives it naughty if not
nautical air.
The prices asked for these dresses
would stagger any one who knows any
thing about the prices of the goods.
Another very stylish but equally perish
able suit for bicycling was offered.
There were close knickerbockers reach
ing the knees and buttoning snugly.
The skirt reached to the ankles and was
closed i'll front, but divided i'll the back.
1t was of pearl gray venetian cloth.
The basque was very English, and there
fore to be desired. All the seams curved
to fit the figure, and over each seam was
wide black and gold soutache, ending
at the bottom in curved trimming
There were no darts to this jacket, all
the fitting being done by the seams.
There was shirt front of most aston
ishing plaid, with a very large double
bowed tie to match and a white linen
collar. The neat little sailor straw was
slightly f1uted all around the brim and
had double bow and a band of the

same plaid silk as that in the waist.
With this the wearer may choose be-
tween CATERS and thick, dark ribbed
stockings.
Silk warp bareges will be largely
employed for dainty afternoon dresses
for young girls, and the pretty silk and
linen tissue seems especially designed
for them. For evening and for gradua-
ton gowns the exquisite Japanese
grapes are much liked. These have a
wrought figure on the surface, but
more often they are quite plain, save
for the delicate suggestion of crinkle.
1t takes lace and very little ribbon to
trim these. They hang beautifully.
