SOMEWHAT CONFUSED.

81 am ever and ever so glad!' exclaimed
young Mrs. TOrkns, who had been read
ing an out-Of-tCwn paper that her hus-
band brought home.
"What's the matter?" was the response.
Have you found something that pieases
you in the society column"
"You know very well that I am Culti-
waiting a sensible taste in my reading. l
always turn to the sports now, the first
thing, just as you do. And I'm getting so
that some of it seems real lucid"
What was the cause of your rejoic-
ing?"
Were in luck again"
what do you mean?'
1--WE can't lose. I'm sure he must be a
wonder, because he Is talked about so
much. It's a positive relief to me to lind
that he isn't going somewhere else"
"Will you have the kindness to tell me
what you are talking about"
Base ball, of course. Wen have to do
without him a while, but this paper says
he will be with us before the season gets
very far along. And 1t will be ever so nice
to have somebody who is SO famous"
"To what parsonage do you referY' he
inquired a little frigidiy.
"Now, Charley, you are just pretending!
You are making believe you are ignorant,
so as to test my knowledge, l mean Mr..
Horse"
He stared at her apprehensvely and in
silence. Then ne said:
what have you been reading?"
"This paper" and she handed it to him.
"rhese people always were jealous of
any prospect of success that our nine
had" he commented.
"Well, they've got to give in this time
she persisted, because l know that a
gentleman who has become as celebrated
as he has is sure to pull us through, Any
thing dlsagreeable that they say now will
just show that they feel spiteful toward
us because we've got Mr.. Horse. Maybe
it's little sentimental, but l can't help
trusting and admiring him, even though |
have never seen him, because his first
name is the same as your, Charley, dear"

What the Leading Papers Say Abo"t
the Great Danger of These Days.

The leading question OF the day among
scientific men, and I'm the leading papers,
is the alarming increase Of pneumonia, the
death-rate showing an increase or over
FIVE HUNDRED PER CENT. within
the last few years. Doctor Gouverneur
NJ. Smith, in an article in the Medical he-
cord. says that while medical art has au-
vanced of recent years In many direc-
tlons. $50 far as pneumonia IS concerned
science has shrivelled." The New YORK
Sun. writing on this subject, says: "rhe
great increase In the fatality Of pneums-
mia is very alarming. especially as the as
ease carries off so many in the funess OF
life and health" The New York Herald
says: considering the impending weather
changes. this dread disease opens its cam
paign very vigorously" Surgeon-Generai
Moore. of the army, in his annual report,
says: 1.-THE principal cause or death IN the
army is pneumonia" -
There Is one thing that every doctor,
every surgeon. and every nurse does upoi

that is to stimulate the system Ihe lie

amount of Dufy's pure malt whishey

Great care should be exercised In securing
the genuine, and great promptness IN
taking it on the approach Of the first

Some of the lenders OF the movement
for universal arbitration have been rem
dered quite uneasy by the reports That
have been sent out from Washington. to
the effect that Il is very uncertain wheth-
er the Senate will ratify the arbitration
treaty between the United States ana
Great Britain. The two most prominent
rea sons assigned for this uncertainty are
first, that some OF the Democratic sena-
tors would be willing to go TO any length
to "gatf'' Mr. Cleveland on any question:
regardless OF the merits OF the issue IN
volved; second that other senators, Oh
both parties. see in the convention snares
by which Great Britain would gain all
the advantages and make this country
cats-paw.
For his course towards his party IN
the last campaign we consider Mr.. Cleve-
land open TO the severest criticism; out'
as we said the other day. any senator
who would antagonize the President
touching so important matter as the
arbitration treaty. simply for the pur-
pose OF "gahing' him, would be guilty
Of a most picayune piece of business.
Both of the Virginia senators are said
to he in favor Of ratification; but. even
were they not. we would feel entire con-
fidence that. in opposing IT. they were
free from any such motive or influence
as the. above.
AS 10 the second cause that Is said
to put the treaty in jeopardy. 1t should
be remembered that there may be very
potent foreign influences operating TO dis
credit Great Britain in the premises. 1t
is no secret that Russia. upon learning
that the convention was under way, ex-
hibited great concern, and Russia is not
the only European Power TO which such
relations between the United States and
Great Britain as the treaty contemplates
would be unwelcome. In case Of trouble
between Great Britain and any Cont
mental power or combination. the policy
of the latter would be to produce fric-
ton between Great Britain and the
United States-a danger the treaty would
minimize, If not avert altogether.
II will be readily understood. therefore.
that many OF the reports that go out
from Washington regarding the "snares'
in the treaty may be colored by the
foreign influence operating through sena-
tors who have not yet given the subject
due consideration. IL will also be readi-
ly understood that other senator's feel
compelled TO indulge in certain amount
of iingoism. as against Great Britain,
whenever any question involving our re-
lations with that country comes up. But
this does not preclude the hope that,
when the Senate comes TO discuss Sc
riously the treaty. that body may see
that the only snares we have to fear
are those set by the Continental powers
TO ensnare us into rejecting the conven-
ton. In that event-in the event that
England is toting fair-there will be no
excuse for the Senates not ratifying the
| treaty.

They Accept Our Challenge.

The Norfolk Ledger, the Dispatch and

challenge to the eastern part Of the state
TO touch elbows with us in matters oil

on the subject. The Dispatch concludes
its article as follows:
1.-The broader argument. so TO speak. OF

graphs last quoted from II. is not only
eminently sound and practical. but emil

pressions, and the State also. We trust
we may hear again from Our contempora-

A few years ago, of the Indian corn
used IN Great Britain by far the greater
part came from the Danubian and Black
Sea countries. But the two enormous
crops of corn in this country in 1885 and

in American exports of grain that, ac-
