NEW YORK, April H.-The European

London parity In the quotations at the
opening. The day was without special de-
vetopments otherwise. outside Of special
movements in individual stocks. London
showed further fractional advance for
American securities. and this was proba-
bly, due In part to the fact that yester-
days London prices were somewhat de-
pressed by the excessive depression exist

Americans continued to improve In Lon

Atlanta's Mistake.

Wherever an Atlanta man gets hold of pile of money, either his own, or Borrowed capital, he begins tfe erec- tion of an eight or ten story office build ing. These days nobody ever hears of a movement in Atlanta to build fac tories or start enterprises which will give employment to labor. The craze for office buildings dominates every body.
 It is big blunder. Unless the city develops in other lines the office build irgs will go begging for tenants. The men who rent fine offices want them in city which is steadily growing in business, population and wealth
 In the good old Grady days the solid men of Atlanta used to get together and start or attract big industrial enter priges. Now, they borrow money, build a sky-seraper, and call It progress, but it is progress with mortgage, and old man Shylock stands in the background waiting to claim his pound of flesh.

Concerning Bread.

In the London Telegraph Mr. T. P. O'connof. devotes column to the task of proving that bread is unwholesonle and should be avoided. He mentions ssysral very old persons who attributed their great age to abstinence from bread. It is quite likely that the bread made from thsl finest brands of white flour has no nutritious quality, and 1t may be injurious People would be healthi.r if they would eat more corn, rye and graham bread
 But it is impossible to give any rules of diet which will fit every case. One Sman's meat is another mans poison Some persons live to a good old age when they have d+fied every rule of hygiene. Others who take -:he utmost care of themselves die early.
 The secrets of health and longevity have n4ver yet been revealed, and prob- ably never will be.

Not Very Pleasant.

The naughty Dons at Madrid are very polite to the new American minister. but he has to be guarded, all the same. The temper of ths Spaniards is such as to make it unsafe for him to venture out unprotected, as he would run the aisk of being insuited or aasassinated.
 How long can thfs sort of thing last? The unfriendly feeling between the two countries Is liable at any time to cul- nitrate in some act of violence which will precip.tate a clash of arms. If we succeed in maintaining peaceful rela- tions with Spain 1t will be because our government submits to insults and out Gla a9es which no other nation would bear.
 Why go through the solemn farce of pretending to be friendly with Spain whsn the overwhelming majority of the American people are in favor of inter-. fering in behalf of Cuba. Sooner or later that beautiful island must be insle- pendent or come under our flag.

A Great Mans Views.

Col. John L. Sullivan, the distinguished ex-slugger, who proposes to occupy the mayeTs chair itn Boston, has some very interesting views in regard to pol3ics and things in general.
 MT. Sullivan desires to get even with Josiah Quncy. GIe says:
 +'He threw me down at Fanyl1 Hall, the night of the Ten Eyck reception. sticks ous my hand. 1ouh Qurcy do.ait see it. He thought it would be good chance to make a Ii tic resputalfon off me. heard Gu ncy make a speech that night, and say, on the level, I was sorry for the sucker. For the man who's the head of a big oity and lets on he's a Way-up intellectual man, it was a bum speech. If I was as b.g foo1 with my hands as Quincy is with his head he'd never got the chance to omit ito shake Ina nds with me for prize fightin'. No. he's dead weak. He's no men al heavy weight"
 He says that he doss rot 'Fcare a d-n for parties" He thinks New York shoi,d stick to local issues, and ret '6rag in outside rascafs for to confuse a mug" Tammany will in his or,ln,oa, w.n with hands down. Of the business situation he speaks enicotpaag.ngRy. As he ex- presses it, "there seems to be more of the dough going round''
 It is ito be regretted that the peculiar fechn.cai teimls employed by this emi- nent Bostonian make it difficult for the average reader to understand f.m, but ale makes it plain that h.s candidacy is mainly to revenge himself upon Quincy, who publicly snubbed him. He speaks eontslmptuous,y of his encmyss 'sb,iqn" speeches, aud in ~fnhates ilhat as an orator he can beat him out Of sight.
 These utterances are, of course, seri- ously considered in Boston, where the big fellow is still regarded as a great man. Perhaps Col Sullivan is not the brightest of poll icia11s, but he has same poilrats in common with them, and there are a good many who would not be sorry to see hln make trouble for Mr. Quincy, who has too much cdfsh aristocracy to his makeup Go please the masses.
 There is no disguising the fact that Col Sullivan is the most distlng gulshed citizens of Bosaon, Though Jo-fah Quinl- cy believes himself to be the only real Gliing so far discovered in the Back Bay district and all the country surrounding. Great is Col Sullivan.

Gen. Neal Dow.

Gen. Neal Dow, ths father of the union prohibition law, is in dying condition He was in some respects a very rsmarlS- able man. More than forty years ago he began his prohibition crusade alone. and travelled all over his state in buggy visiting every house. He talked pro- hibition until it b:came a public issue. and finally it won.
 Many temperance people claim that it has done wonders for Maine, but oth- CTS say that it has injured the state. and is a mere sham utilized by the pon- ticians. Dow himself has frequently said that Bangor and other placss in Maine are "rum-cursed cities" During the war the great reformer was a fed eral general, and his record in Louisiana was not to his credit. It has been charged that he s=nt home mone rianos. silver ware and other plunder than any other union officer. He was notorious as a pillager.
 Apart from this, it is quite likely that he was a sincere advocate of prohfbi- tion, and was controlled by good mo- tives. He could not, however have known much of history and human na- ture, or Ire would have known that his experiment was failure in the past,

to encompass more than one rsal and genuine love. The first dear eharmer must bs absent before 4he other can pfove engrossing. A genius like Solomon may be happy with seven hundr5d wives, but even Solomon, we are pions to believe. had his favorste before who's shrine he burned the incense of pas sionats and exclusive devotion. Even such a1llloving poets as Shelley ard Byron, whsn they met the woman whom they really adored, and whom they loved at the expense of disregarding the so- cfal code, were unequal to the task of loving more than this one woman at the game time. And if these romantic and Susceptible poets could not Include two loves fin their all-emblacing affec- tions, how are we common mortals. more callous and unimpressionabie. to be expected to expand our hsarts?
 We know there have been instances where Q man has appeared to be in love with two women at the same time, but we are disposed to regard this synehron- ism as more apparent than real. One must be off with the old love before he can be on with the new. The ivy clings only to one wall and the tendrils of the heart attach themselves firmly but to one object. Devotion to two fair creat- uras may seem to be actuatsd by the same degree of passion, but a close an alysis- will show that in one case there is real love and in the other there is merely the semblanee of the genuine thing.
 Still, as we said before, the question opens too vast a field of speculation to be decided off-hand. The obiter dietum cannot be uttered until all the evidence is in. A thousand experiences must be gathered and weighed, and even then We do not know that tha rule can be established. Of one thing only are we certain. If you are a married man, don't try the experiment. It is quite possible that it may lead you into trouble

 Finally:
 Tlss English press laments bitterly the inhuman conduct Of the American ma rines when they meet wrecked vessel on the e5a.
 A very recent case proves it:
 The steamer. Delaware of the Villa franchs list suffered very serious dam- age. about four miles from Hudson bay. With the helix broken, the sails lost, 1t remained six days as a buoy. a piece of cork. seeing many American vessels pass. but none Of them going to her aid.

the middle states. and incidentally re- marked that a young commonwealth celebrating it's first centennial had no history.
 This is the natural view of an En- glishman, but Americans regard Ten nessee as a state with notable histor-l ". Her people took m active part in the great wars and had a hand in two drubbings administered to Mir. Besants conntrymen. This clever but mlsin- formed foreigner said in his letter that he would not believe that the surround ings of the people Of Tennessee made them in any respect different from the people of New York and Massachusetts. Yet he knows that in his own country a Cornishman is different from York shireman. Ills great predecessor. Thaek- cry, recognized this difference when he wrote "The Virginiuss" but Charles Reade did not. as was shown by his mistake in locating a cotton plantation in Massachusetts.
 Upon the whole it would be we'll for United States. There are many points about this country which would be al- together new to him, and it is a pity that writer Of his genius should know so little of land inhabited by the nsa- jority of the English-speaking race.

He cannot brook this peaceful life While battles trumphet calls; He sees a crown for iiim who wins, A tear for him who fails. The fowery glens and shady slopes Are hateful to his eyes: Beyond the heights, beyond the stofMs The land of promise lies: He is old and sits so still.
 His face so weak and mildt We know that he remembers naught Save when he was child. His life is through; his fame is won, Life's highest peak is past;

Mir. MckinIey's Thanksqivinu.

Ut is about time for MT. Mckinley to begin ccndemning the matter and style of his first presidential Thanksgiving proclamation.
 As he and his friends are disposed to claim thsi the wave of prosperity is the result of the.fp promotion, the president will doubtless intimate somei. hing of the laira in his coming deliverances. But what can he say? It will be proper for lilm to refer to the misfortunes of other countries, the short whees crops in Eu- rope; the famine and revolt in India; the failure of the potato crop in Ireland; the Spanish and Cuban troubles; the rev oluitions in Central and Sou il America, ard the indications of war in Europe over lhe eastern question. These mat pers should be mentioned in order to emphasize the peace and prosperity of this counry.
 But as our prosperity is directly the result of theaa misfortunes elsewhere, will Mir. Mckinley have the gall to hint that they are Ehe consequences of the special interpoelition of the Almighty in behalf of himself and the republican party? Perhaps he dhfnkes so, and he would like to say it, bur alfs sublime egottsm wiM hardly carry lbtm to that extreme. He will assume the appeara nee of humility and modesty, and deplore the calamities of other na.ions, while returning thanks for the blessings en- joyed iby thds favored land.
 The proclamation should say very It. tie about the policy of the ruling parry in connection with the Improvement in our conditions. If our people are in sight of better times it is because they have worked hard, with favorable seasons, while other countries have suffered from blight, drought, famine and war.
 This is all bilere as in 1t. The republl- can party has done no.lring that has put a dollar into any toilers pocket. It is the party of the classes, and is the enemy of fhe masses,
