Not the Way to Convert Democrats to
the Gold Standard

NoI i've way 10 convert democrats to
the Gold Standard.
Columbia State
The job of converting the Demo
cratic masses to the gold standard
with a $12-a-plate dinner for a
select 500 is of itself not easy, but
when we come to consider the fetails
of the gilded banquet we realize that
at the very beginning of their cam
paign the Reform Club members
have hopelessly handicapped their
cause.
Were there any doubt Of the loyal
ty of plain Democrats to the cause of
bimetallism we could point to the
fact that the gold banquet was given
at the Hotel Waldorf, the palatial
hostelry built and owned by William
Waldorf Aston, American Croesus
and British subject, who is Donation
allied on a gold basis and spending
his millions abroad.
Were other argument needed, we
could show that among the eminent
men who assembled at the propa-
gandist board TO teach us Democ-
racy was Mr.: Ickelheimer, of Heidel-
back, Ickelheimer & Co, SO histori-
caly distinguished during the vogue
of bond issues as importers of gold
and saviors of their country in con-
junction with Messrs. Cleveland.
Pierpnnt Morgan and Carlisle.
Ii this would not suffice, we could
present the menu OF the banquet,
which, in addition to detailing
such undemocratic contrivances as
"Huitres," "Potage," "Mignons d.
| Agneau du Printemps," 'Coquille de
i Gourmet" and "Alose sur Planche,' u
and dazzling the bibulous with an
array OF Chateau Corona, "Amon-
tillado Pasado," est. Est ephe
1885," "Moet & Chandon White
Seal" and "Moet & Chandon Rrut
lmperiale," commits the unpardon-
able sin of spelling tucumbere
''coucombres, radishes "radis," and
celery ''celeri." These dudish affecta
tions would damn any cause, and the
proletariat will be quick to make
contrast with the recent Bryan jeff
ersonian din. er in Washington, in
which tried chicken and gumbo ap-
peared under their own honest
names.
But if even these evidences O
purse-proud presumption should not
suffice TO warn our wool hat Democ-
racy against the insidious approaches
of a plutocratic propaganda, we
could simply turn to the seventh
paragraph of the menu and exhibit
in all it's shocking suggestiveness the
words: ''Timhale la Rothschild."
Gentlemen of the Reform club
Messrs. Cleveland, Ickelheimer, Car
Isle and Calvin Tomkins, you will
never convert the Democratic mil
lions to gold monometallism on the
basis of "Timbale la Rothschild
1t gives away the snap.

A Spider Keeps Time to Music.

At rehearsal of the Apollo Male
quartet of Coldwater, Mich, large
spider came slowly down his silken
thread to about the height of the sing
ers' shoulders, where he hung suspended
for few minutes, then began to move
up and down in front of the music rack.
The second tenor, who was leading
the air, soon noticed that the movements
of the spider correspondent with the va
riations of his voice up and down the
scale and in perfect time. They then
began series of experiments and found
that the spider would ascend or descend
about foot for every octave, and
though the melody was carried ever 80
lightly, and the bassos Numbered in
their heaviest tones, the insect could not
be deceived. but always followed the
leading part accurately and with the
precision of directors baton.
All kinds of songs, from Down In
the Cornfeld'' to ..The Bridge, were
sung to test the ability of the wonderful
little being, and each time he came out
of the conflict not beat behind. At
last the four voices struck an awful dis
cord, and instantly the spider scurried
mp his improvised metronome and dis
appeared in the chimney.-St Paul

Prohibition Against Policemen to BE Re-

An official circular recently issued by
the supreme council says: "In New York
city death rate for policemen was reported
for 1895 as "a in 1000. In consequence of
this excessive rate it was recommended
that policemen of that city be declared in
eligible, and this recommendation has
since been followed. Further investiga-
ton, patiently conducted, has in a material
degree modified the original report furnish
ed the late medical examiner in chief. It
is gratifying to discover that the death
rate among policemen in New York city
in 1895 and IL months of 1896 is such
that the prohibition imposed upon them
of ineligibiity can safely be removed
The net increase in Missouri last year
was 544
Our council, New York city, recently
initiated its one thousandth member.
Reports of the grand officers of Mary
land show active work and increasing

At a recent meeting of French Broad
council of North Carolina H. Taylor Rog-

adopted, providing for the presentation of
a $50 jewel or other prize of that value to
the brother who should during this year
bring in the largest number of applications.

Mrs. Cleveland and the whee1man.

1t was Christmas week, and young
man ON a bike was confidently riding
up street. A heavy carriage, drawn
by two prancing bays, came spinning up
the street at the same time. The young
man was fairly run into the gutter by
the turnout, and to save himself from
being crushed he jumped off his wheel.
The bays were drawn up to the curb in
great style, and the lady occupant of the
carriage stepped out to go into store
She instantly took in the catastrophe
The wheel was almost a wreck, and the
rider was looking around for his hat.
She stepped right u2 to him and in
quired if he was hurt. Being assured
that he was not, she took out card and
wrote a few lines ON it and gave it to
him, saying:
"Have your wheel repaired and send
the bill to Mr.. Thurber with this card
I am very glad you were not hurt -
