Senator German denies that he Is to
remove TO New York and take a part in
politics there; nevertheless some of the
New York papers have it that he has been
offered a position of trust and profit in a
dig surety company in which some of the
big politicians are pecuniariIy interested
The ex-statesman colony in New York has
lately received additions in the persons of
ex-Secretary Carlisle. ex-Ambassador Eus-
ais, ex-Congressman Bynum and ex-Sen-
ator Thurston. and there is stin room
probably for few more exes.

who Says There Is No santa Clans

S"SS AHcFe Is NO santa Claus
From the Louisville Courier-Journal
Who says there is no Santa Claus?
Don't you believe that, dear:
OF course there is a Santa, and
He comes but once a year
To see his little girls and bows
And bring them lots of cheer.
Else, where would you get all the TOYS?
Yes, Santa Claus
Is here.
Who says there is no Santa Claus?
There always has been one:
Your teacher may be very wise
But here at home is fun.
Your teacher says no RENDERS pranca
Upon the snow, but l
Can tell you Santa's RENDERS danoe
Upon the
Chimney high.
The fairies come to visit you.
And charm you, dear, to sleep:
They dance upon the lawn, and sing
And vigils ever keep.
There always have been fairies. dear
And so, there'll always be
A Santa Claus to bring you cheer,
And also joy
To me.
Twas Santa filled the Christmas tree
With toys and delight;
1t was that same old jolly chap
Who brought you here tonight
The sweetest cheer you'll ever know
In all the days to be;
1 tell you there's a Santa Claus
To you, pet, and
To me.
know there is a Santa Claus!
OF course I never saw
The RENDERS, but they're surely there
And bells without a flaw;
All! merrily the bells they ring
Though you can never hear
Their music in the winter air.
Still Santa Claus
Is near.
So. rest you In your downy nest,
Yes, Santa Claus will come:
He'll heap the tree with dainty sweets
Perhaps he'll bring a drum.
/ never doubted Santa Claus
Nor dreamed there wasn't one.
And you must always know, my dear.
That Santa has
His fun.

Result of Pingreeism.
From the Nashville American CDem.

Pingreesm IN Detroit forced the street
car company in that city to adopt a Scent
fare, and now the company has defaulted
in interest on its bonds This probably
doesn't matter so much to Pingree as it
does to the bondholders. but there would
likely be some panics If there were many
such cases and money would be withheld
from future inves tment in enterprises that
could be subjected to the Pingree treat
ment.

A rather striking illustration of the ar
dor of a lovers passion was brought out
in the testimony taken in a New York
court the other day 1t was developed
that the lover had kissed the lady so rap
turousiy that her teeth had been Ioosened
by the conclusion, or explosion, or what
ever 1t may have been, and she had to go
to the dentist for repairs.

That submarine boat at Baltimore has
been pronounced a success. The other
day a number of newspaper men went
down in it, and for an hour and half
were submerged twenty feet. The boat
moved along on the bottom with ease and
facility. Now the treasures of the deep
had better be doubly guarded by old Nep-
tune, and he had better give imperative
orders for all of the mermaids to remain
in doors.

Many members of congress are continual

form. The Washington Post for instance,
calls attention to the fact that the New
Orleans board Of health has been COM
PEELED TO resign because it has lost the
confidence of the people of that city and
of the state of Louisiana. The same "a
per quotes an article in the New Orleans
Times-Democrat Oh the Florida quaran-
tine system, in which It is said that the
FLORIDA quarantine service is one of the
many arguments in favor of national
quarantine" The Democrat, in the
same article said: CAS- a matter of fact,
that system is VIGOROUSLY defective, and
constant menace to the neighboring
states No state has let i'll fever oftener
than Florida, at Jacksonville, Tampa,
Pensacola and Key West"
The Washington Post hasn't the highest
opinion OF the Florida system, although
1t thinks, as does the country generally,
that the Florida health authorities are
sincere In their efforts to keep out the
fever, and are doing their best to keep
the yellow fever from getting into this
country through their ports. 1t quotes a
passenger, who left Havana on the steam
ship Ohvette and reached Tampa week
ago yesterday, as follows:
"As L was going through to the
north my luggage was not dis
turbed in any way, but an ac-
quaintance of mine who had Travelled
with me from Havana, intended stopping
somewhere in the state, and in his case
the beauty and efficacy of the Florida
quarantine system was illustrated. He
had with him trunk and dress suit
case, both filed with clothing They held
the trunk for fumigation, promising him
to forward it the following day. and per-
mitted him with his valise to pass unmo-
Tested In any way OF course 1 do not
know upon what theory the Florida au-
thoritieS proceed. They may have ascer-
tanned that germs will travel in large
trunks, while they utterly decline to take
passage ia handbags, pOrtmanteaus, etc,
or to infest clothing actually in use. In
that event, the Florida system is a mir
acle of expedition and accuracy, combined
with philanthropic regard for the con-
Venience of the tourist. But it seems to
me, considering the fact that science has
not yet succeeded in identifying the germ,
that wearing apparel is just as dangerous
in a dress suit case as in trunk, and
therefore quite as probable a vehicle of
infection. In word, the whole thing i'm
pressed me as a solemn and expensive
farce-to hold up a trunk for fumgation
and let the person and the handbag pass
without the smallest inquiry. A germ that
couldn't get through that quarantine must
be a mighty poor specimen
The foregoing illustrates, to some extent
the arguments which are being used in
favor of a national acknowledgements
which win likely have considerable weight
with congressman.
While the ports, as a rule, prefer to
have control of their own guarantees,
and while there are strong reasons why
they should have control of them, there
is no doubt want of confidence in local
guarantees. Why there is has been stat
ed often, and need not be repeated. 1t is
apparent that the effort to put all quar-
antine matters under national control Is
going to be a strong one.
