MRS. McKlNLEY GUESSED WRONG.
The Baby Boots Sent to Princeton Are Blue
 They Should Have Been Pink.
From the Chicago Tribune.

From the Chicago Tribune.
 Washington-A week previous to her departure for Canton on Saturday last with the president, Mrs. Mckinley be- gan a dainty piece of knitting. She was fashioning a tiny pair of baby's socks. It was on Thursday afternoon that Mrs. Mckinley rang the silver bell that stood on her dressing table
 Mrs. Thurn," she said, as the maid appeared, twill you please hand me those baby booties which are lying on the top of the things in my knitting baslSet?"
 Mrs. Thurn complied, and the presi- dents wife asked for a pasteboard box, a piece of string and sheet of manilla paper. She placed the little socks in the box, wrote a note and deposited it with them, wrapped the box in the pa- per, folded dt neatly, and tied it with the twine. Then she dipped the pen in the ink and wrote on the box: Mrs. Grover Cleveland, Princeton. N. J." Soon the postman bore the box away, and it must have arrived at Princeton just about on time. On Friday evening, when she had read the papers and learn ed of the event at Princeton, Mrs. Me- Kinley smiled, but her smile had a trace of discomfiture The booties which she had sent to Mrs. Cleveland were blue. and, as all the world which has had ex- perience in such things well knows, blue boots are for girls and pink for boys.

Farming Syndicates.

The Knoxville Tribune has the follow ing account of an imm=nse southern farm:
 The largest farm in the country, and probably in the world, is situated in the southwestern part of Louisiana. It ex- tends 100 miles east and west. It was purchased in 1883 by a syndicate of northern capitalists, by whom it is still operat =d At the time of it's purchase its 100000 acres was a vast pasture for cattle belonging to few dealers in that country. Now it is divided into pasture stations or ranches, existing every six mfles. The fencing is said to have cost $50,000 The hand is best adapted for rice sugar, corn and cotton. A tract, say half a mile wld-, is taken, and an engine is placed on each side. The en- gines are portable and operate a cable attached to four blows. By this arrange msnt thirty acr=s are gone over in a day, with the labor of only three men. There is not a single draught horse on the entire place, if we except those us d by the iherders of cattle, of which there are 16.O00 head on the placs. The South ern Pacific nailread runs through the farm. The company has three steam boats operating on the waters of the estate, of which 300 miles are navigaibla It has also an icehouse, bank, shipyand and ice mills.
 This has attracted the attention Of that progressive magazine, The New Time, and 1t makes some very gloomy predictions for the future of agriculture. It says that in few years the mort gagged farms will pass into the hands of syndicates which will operate them on a large scale, and thsir former owners will become mere serfs, working for starva- tion wages.
 The New Time is mistaken. Small farms are more satisfactory than large ones, and the tendency is in that direc- tIon. Moreover, in the course of a few years the democratic party will be in power and all the plutocratic monopo1ies built up by republican rule will be smashed or checked and controlled.
 The farmers of America are bound into serfdom by shyloek syndicates, and be- fore they would submit to such oppres- sion they would do as the farmers of France have done more than oncs- shoulder their guns and march into the money centers and revolutionize things. Of course, such an event will never occur in th.s country. Our farmers can use the ballot in way that will be far more effectuaa than bullets.
 Such wild talk as The New Time in- dulges in, however, shows the beneficient conditions of triumphant democracy.

A Doubtful Experiment..

In several southern states there is a good deal of talk just now about CO., education. The following paragraph in the Ndw York Times will be or interest ito those who are studying tine subject:
 In England the mixed school system does not prevail as it does here. and in Cumberland the recent enterprise of a school where boys and girls attend the same classes is looked upon with sstir- prise. "Lt is not clear" says an English journal, "wIhat advantages can be gained from teaching little boys and girls to- gethar-th9ugh probably mo harm will ensue. Butt what about the hig boys and big girlsf Said the master of Balliol he had never known the girls in a house. hold to suffer harm from being brought up with brothers as companions in their studies and amusements. No doubt But in this case It will not lbe a fafni1y panty The sisters will be ether boys sisters and the brothers will be oaher girls broth ers''
 The chances are that eo-educa,tion would result in Ettle study and a good deal of lore-making. Early marriages would become common, and there would be many injudicious alliances. The ex- priment in many instances would be a picnic for the boys. but many girls would regret 1t all their Hives.

Yellow Fever Centres.

The country is at last walking up to the importance of guarding against the Spanish-Amerfcan ports which are the breeding places of yellow fever. In a sensible article on the subject the New York Sun says;
 How the yellow fever gained admis- sion to the United States this year is mot settled, but the probability is that it came from Havana. The harbor of Havana, one of the finest three in the world, is a cesspool. Its wharves are notorious as centres of infection. Under one of them empties the sewer from the yellow fever hospital. and 1t is known as 'Dead Mans Hole" American vessels have paid lighter charges amounting to s2O0 to $500 rather than discharge at it. Formerly Vera Cruz was another centre of Infection. Under President Diaz the disease has been almost wholly ban fshed from the city. There can be no change for nhe better at Havana so long as Cuba remains under Spanish rule. While this years epidemic in the United States does not compare in severity with that of 1878, it is considerably more ex- tensive than that of 1893, and with a larger percentage of fatalities. Its cost in life and money cannot be yet figured up In addition to the loss of 15 934 lives, it is estimated that the epidemic of 1878 cost the United States in commercial and 1nduStfdal Tuefrupton al least SlU0,- O00, 900. This may be called the price of cowardice at the time of the last Cuban TebeiHon. Thirty-five of the visits of yellow fever to this country are known definitely to have been from Cuba, and of these twenty-three have been clearly traced to the port of Havana. Dr. Wy man, supervising surgeon-general ma Tine hospital service, whose article in the November Forum we are following. writes that fit would pay the commer- cial nations of the new world 1there ds only one commercial nation in the new worldD to undertake the sanitary regen- srafion of Havana, even if they had to bear the expense themselves, rather than endure the constant fear of yellow fever
 The Sun goes on to say that the ex- ample of Mexico with Vera Cruz shows

CONSTITUTIONAL PROVISION
Permitting the Governor to Leave the Capitol
 in Times of Epidemic.
To the Editor of The Age-Herald:

To the Editor of The Age-HIerald:
 Many of the newspapers of the state are blaming Gov Johnston for leaving Montgomery and transacting the busi- ness of the executive department tem- pornrily in Birmingham. Attention is now called to the constitutional pro- vision applicable to the governors con- duct.
 Article V, section of the constitution. on page g of the code, is as follows: "The governor, secretary of state, state treasurer, state auditor and attorney general shall reside at the seat of gov- ernment of this state during the time they conitinue in office except in case of epidemics.'
 There is no ambiguity about this lan- guage. It is plain and simple. The off, eers named are requirad to be in Mont gomery at all times, except during an epidemic. When an epidemic is preva- lent there, no obligation of duty requires them to remain. The inference is a3- most irresistible that in such case it is Their duty to transfer the seat of the executive government to some safe place, of course, within the state. To fair minded expounder of this constitutional provision the exception has as much binding force as the general rule, and means that during epidemics the officers named should 1eave the capital city.
 The governor has wisely remained si- Vent under much abuse. As a citizen, I deem it my duty to show that he has acted according to the highest law of the land. Respectfully,
 IF. s. FERGUSON.

How Mrs. Langtry Bought the Eanch

From the Chicago Record.
 Mrs. Langtry is the owner of ranch out near Carson, Nev. It was sold to her by Sam Davis, of the Appeal. The story of the sale is short and reads like fiction, but it is true. Mrs. Langtry was playing Ga1atea. She had had some dealings with Davis looking to the pur- chase of the ranch, but had been unable ito make up her mind. Sam was conse- quentfy worried for fear the deal would not go through. So one night he went to the stage door of the theater where the show was being produced, and, ow- ing to his editorial position, was admit ted without question. He waited until Mrs. Lang'try took up her position as the statued Gala'tea, and then, calling three stage hands to witness, he whlS- pered from the wings to her: "If you hear me, wink the eye which is farther from the audience" Galatea winked. That established Davis ease.
 Now if you don't want to buy ths southwest quarter of section II, 15, Is for $S, 900 shake your head" he said. Ga- latea, the maIbfe statue, with the eyes of the audience upon her, was, Of course, immoyalble. "AA right" said Davis, cheerfuIly VT and these witnesses un- derstand that you want 1t at that fig ure."
 The next day he gave her the deeds and took her good money. She probably might have made contention in court, but she delccded that such diplomacy de- S: rved recognition, and so accepted the situation. That is how she comes to be land owEer in Nevada

A House to House stenographer

From the New York Evening Post.
 A business man thinks there is an opening for young women as sten~ ographers to supply occasional service to a circle of regular customers. Many men need the assistance of stenogra- pher and typewriter for only one or two days a week. They would, he thinks, be glad to employ some one for this limited and specified time, and that she would have no difficulty in filling out her week with other similarly hm- ited patronage. These occasional de- mands are now supplied by the type writing offices at a considerably greater proportional expense to the employers. Certa.nly there is a field for itinerant stenographers among the many business women of the day. A woman who re- gently made the experiment of securing a stenographer for two days in the week found not the slightest difficulty in se- curing employment for her for the re- maining four days among the friends of her own circle. It was significant that every woman to whom the idea was preached was delighted with it, and tho arrangement has proven most satisfac- tory. women nowadays are almost an of them working busily in many direc- tions The correspondence of club of- ficer or one interested in public work of any sort at once assumes such propor- tions that, with the many other de- mands upon the time of the modern mother and housekeeper it is apt to be neglected or become a serious burden. Until one has had somebody to come one day in a week and clear off ones desk, the relief can hardly be guessed.

Good Bye, MT. WattersOn.


 The democratic party will not be the loser when Henry watterson retfres, as hs says he will, to the ranks and ceases to be leadsr. MT Watterson has been on dress parade and attracting consider able attention from the grand stand since about 1876. He was an especial fiiend of Samuel J. iFilden when that democrat ran flor ths presidency against Rutherford B. Hayes in 1876. A short time after that election Mr. Watterson was elected to congress to serve out tbe unsxpired term of A. Y. Parsons, who died. Mir. Watterson was a somewhat gressional career. 9de attracted some at tentlon by making the statement that he would bring to Washington on= hundred thousand armlsd Kentuckians who would Tilden in the white house This was bod assertion. but not necessarily one that would carry with 1t any particular patriotism.
 
 which nominated General Hancock, MT. Watterson had engra6ted into the plat form that good democratic doctrine of Ia tariff fer revenue only" In 1884 he 1utions that nominated Grover Cleveland ait Chicago. He occupied a similar posi- ton at St. Louis in 1888. and at Chicago again in 1892, but i'm the last Chicago of Grover Cleveland, and not his friend. This has baslen about the extent of MT. WaItterson as a democratic leader. It is true he has preached the doctrine of ths considerable effect. In the campaign of 1896, one year ago, MT. Watt arson spent his time in Switzerland, and from the top of the Alps attempted to direct the the United States. The hack load of bolt CTS which assembled in Indianapolis did listen to the reading of letter from him, which in his vanity he thought
 
 nation.
 MT Wattergon's paper, ths Courier Journal, did all within its power last year to disorganize the democratic par ty, and it, with others, succeeded in turning the state of Kentucky over to MT. Mckinley and the republican party. In the campaign which closed on Tues day last, MT Watterson has for four fare against the democratic party in his own state. He sought to make believe that the faction which he represented would poll a vote larger than that of amy party in the state The vote shows that MT. Shackslford. the regular demo- cratic nomigltse for clerk of the court of appeals, received 137,6O2 votes, while Mr. Hindman, Mir. Wattersens candidate, very conclusively the power of MT. Wat terson and his party in fils own state at the late election.
 It is high time that he retire perma- henIiy HUH luc COuilcAlS of the democratic party. MT. watterson will not be missed. In 1892, when the Kentucky state convention made him a delegats to the Chicago conven- tIlon, he made the prophesy that in the nomination of Grover Cleveland fer president, the party would be marching through a slaughter house into a grave yard" MT. Cleveland was triumphant ly electeld MT. Wettersen has now reached his own graveyard and slaughter house. NIr. Watterson is more of a dis organizer than leader. With such leaders as hA, there is nothing but de feat for the democratic party. The dem- ocratic party at Washington and else- where will stfll live, though Mar'se Henry is no more.
