ONE Fitzgerald, the only Democratic
member of the house from New England,
in fighting the Dingley bill, stated recent
ly, that the Boston newspapers were
unanimous in opposing the measure.
Mr.. Fitzgerald must think that the Bos
ton newspapers cut very wide swath in
national legislation. But they don't, and
moreover they are seldom heard of out
side of very narrow circle in New
England. Like everything else in that
section of the country, the public prints
reflect provlncialism that is really dis
tressipg to people who have had the good
fortune to live in the world. Even as a
literary center, Boston has relinqu ished
the palm in favor of New fork, and the
chief fame of this metropolis of culture
now rests upon her ability to produce
baked beans of q superior quality. 1t is
hardly probable that this honor will be
contested

that he was enabled to rise from the ranks
"a position for which he was well quail
fed BY birth, education, and breeding,
No hereditary ruler, born to the purple
and taught from infancy to use the now
nearly obsolete term "my sub jects," could
be more exclusive and autocratic, than Mr..
Cleveland in his dealings with the peo-
pie generally.
King George, OF Greece, is frequently
seen upon the streets in Anthems unat-
tended, saluting people to the right and
lift, and passing jokes with tradesmen
news5oys, policemen and others. But
Mr.. Cleveland at the head of a Democracy
which holds as its leading tenet that all
men are created equal, himself from a
lowly condition among the common peo.
pie, raised by the votes of his country
men from an insignificant ward poiti
clan to the presidency of the greatest
republic on earth, surrounds himself with
all the exelusiveness of Russian mon
arch, rides in closed carriages for the dis
lance of two blocks, maintains system
of guards, takes his daily exercise in his
private grounds, and denies himself the
privilege of coming in contact with the
people upon every possible occasion.
Mr.. Cleveland is almost total stranger
to the people of Washington among
whom he has lived for eight years. He
was never seen upon the streets, he took
no part in the life about him. Intimate
friends of former years, unless recon-
mended to his favor by politicians high
in the councils of the party, sat about
anterooms shivering In the frigid official
atmosphere, and then went away dis
gusted. In marked contrast to this de-
meanor, which when noted among private
citizens, is denominated caddishness, is
the conduct of President Mckinley in his
relations with the people. He has be-
come already potent factor in the life
of the capital. He strolls about the city,
after the cares of the day like an ordinary
being. To every caller he grants an in
terview. He has not forgotten his form
'er friends. The fierce light that beats
about a throne has not turned his level
American head. The people appreciate
this attitude. ANY other is offensive and
un-American and unbeeoming to man
of the people, for the people and placed
in his high position by the people.

Things That May BE Eaten and Things
to Be Avoided.
The cure for dyspepsia rests almost
entirely upon diet alone. Three mod
crate meals daily are sufficient, and of
course, great care must be taken in the
selection and cooking of food. Boiled
beef is not advisable, neither is soup
of any sort. Vegetables need not acc
essarily be excluded, but they should
be taken cautiously. Mutton, poultry
and whitefish are good New bread
should not even be looked at, and
pastry and cheese are to be regarded
as poison for the time being. Cocoa is
recommended in preference to tea.
Toast and dry biscuits may be eaten
in plenty. Wine, to be of service. must

A New Siderable Balloon.

At the Berlin Industrial Exposition
there is to be seen a wonderful bal
loon, which is reported to be steerable
in remarkable degree. On the 18th
and 29th ult. this tremendous bag rose
to the height of about sixty-five feet
and was propelled in all directions,
even against the wind The public
was allowed to give the directions, SO
that there should be no doubt as to
the genuine powers of the new aerial
vessel. DR.. Wolfert, the designer OF
the balloon, claims that it can be
steered against any wind at any alti-
tude, but this has not yet been tested.
The motive power of this elliptical!y
built balloon is a kind of double-biaded
ships propeller, having a diameter Of
about three yards. 1t is placed in front
of the basket, while right below the
car is another propeller of the same
dimensions, for upward and downward
movement. These propellers make 500
revolutions per minute. The engine is
balloon is over thirty yards long, and
in the center the diameter is about ten
yards. The basket, from its shape, is
called a gallerie, and is five yards long
It is constructed of bamboo, and is fas-
tened to the balloon in such way as
to form an integral part of its bulky
sustainer. Neither part can have sep
arate movement. The method of fas-
tening the two is the secret of the in
ventor, DR.. Wolfert, who will not say
anything about it. He has made fifty
three ascents with other smaller ball
looms of his construction, the last time
on May 20 from the Royal Department
of Military Aeronauts' drill ground.
This latest and largest of his progeny

is not dissimilar from that ordered by
the Spanish government for use
against the Cuban reYo1utionaries.
