May Madcap's Musings.


I was musing the other evening on the
Luetgert trial, and other things. OF
course. women have Just as good right
to study law as the men and learn some
thing about circumstantial evidence.
Most women Of the present generation
have made up their minds that Luetgert
ought to hang. Iheard one woman say
that his face was enough to hang him.
Another said she had no use for any man
who had chosen as life-work the max
ing of "red- hotg' for youths to eat late
at night, thereby creating false thirst,
and the habit of staying away from home
and mother at unseemly hours.
:
People in old times had a greater hor-
ror of convicting an indie ed person on
circumstantial evidence than they have
nowadays, possibly because some of the
mistakes of the past were still fresh in
their memory. remember story my
rand-mother used to tell about a
butcher who was hung for killing his
mother-i in law. The bloody nature of his
trade, as it was followed in those days,
and the traditional UNI opularity of
mothers in.law, had more to do in shap-
ing the verdict than the evidence intro
duced by the prosecution. After the
hanging, the missing woman was found
in an insane asylum in another state,
and it was shown by the relatives Of the
deceased that the butcher.knife and
blood. stained garments and jewelry
found hidden in the mattress of the &C.
cused had been placed there by the cum
ming and vengeful lunatic.
We have had some nice Indian sum-
mer days, but coal will be higher this
winter-don't you forget it. The miners
strike lasted long enough to give the
fuel dealers pretext for raising the
price, and they will do it, when the time
comes. They are strictly on to their job.
There is still considerable timber
around Duluth. and there is new style
of stove, the "air-tight", believe it is
called, a wood-burner. The stove is
made in number of sizes, and is SO con-
structed that almost any sort of wood
can be consumed in IT.. It is emphati-
cally the poor mans stove. With such
a stove as this even the old roots and
snags which are burned in heaps by
farmers could be utilized by the poor
people, if they could get them. I don't
like to see anything destroyed that might
be of use to cat or dog.
Why don't some of the philanthropic
people start up scheme for supplying
wood at low figure? There are still
many acres of suburban property to be
cleared, and there are many men who
would be glad to put in few days work
and take their pay in fuel. The winter
is coming, and the question of how to
keep warm at the least possible expense
will presently demand right of way.
But these commonplace, everyday
subjects, which are supposed to concern
the people, do not, as rule interest
them. I overheard two men on the
street talking, and what do you think
was agitating their mighty masculine
brains? I will report just the words

than atoned for in her generous distri-
button of ears.
The personal habits of the people are
filthy in the extreme, and their morals
are greatly in need of reformation. The
scarcity of women has led to polyan-
| dry which has fiourished for centuries.
One of their social laws is that hospi-
tality includes the placing at the dis
pesal of his guest by the host of wife,
daughter or other female member of
the household.
HYBRID BUDDHISM.
And to think that in the midst Of this
depravity should exist the cherished
goal Of the explorer, the beautiful city
of Lhasa. about which hoyers such
halo Of splendid mystery! And to think
that here, in temple consecrated to
Buddha, surnounted by dome of pure
! gold, should exist the most autocratic,
most opulent and most feared ruler on
the face of the globe. The Grand Lama,
although his country is subject to Chi
nese rule. is Il power unto himself.
Here dwells Dalai Lama. the chief
priest Of Thibet and Mongolia This re
/ ligious pretender is worshiDed as the
earthly incarnation of Buddha- In
cense is burned to him before gigantic
/ idol of the god Of Jamba, a monstrous
image Of clay and gilt with jeweled
head, which sits enthroned in the
great white palace Of the Potala-
Lamaism is a hybrid Buddhism, just
| as Mohammedanism is a hybrid Chris
tianity. The utter exclusion of all for
eigners from this strange land has
been and is undoubtedly due to the
! fear that this religion, which has COM
! pletely enslaVed the Thibetans. might
| be speedily overthrown by the Chris
tian devils" they are afraid the
wealth of the monasteries would be re-
Vealed. At present the priests own
| Thibet as absolutely as though they
| held the fee simple to every foot of it's
ground. The Chinese empire holds a
nominal temporal sway, but dares not,
even if it would, disturb the Dalai
Lama and his army of priests.

Single Standard Inevitable.

The causes tending to make bimetal-
lism impossible and the single stand
ard inevitable are (a) natural and (b)
artificial.
(a) Natural causes are: /. The in
exorable operation of the economic law
known as "Gresham's law" ,. The
constantly falling market value of sill
Yer, owing to apparently inexhaustible
supplies, improved methods of extract
ing the ore, cessation of any corre
spending demand, ETC. 3. The increas-
ing production of gold, which refutes
the contention of the partisans of sill
yer and the bimetallists, that there
is not enough gold in the world for the
uses of trade. t. The constantly dimin-
ishing use of metallic money, and the
corresponding increase of systems Of
credi1, rendering metallic money useful
chiefly for great emergencies. such as
national reserves, the war chests Of
nations, and for retail transactions.
For The first purpose, gold is unques-
tioaably superior to any other stand
ard of value; for the latter, the same
purpose is served by paper based on
gold and by subsidiary silver. ).
Greater facilities for intercommunica-
ton between nations, rendering the me
dunn Of exchanges less complicated. 6.
Greater relative. stability between the
market value Of gold and of human la
Dor.
(b) Among the artificial causes tend
ing to make bimetallism impossible are:
First-AdOption Of the gold standard,
either by law or in practice. or both.
by almost all civilized nations, and
by many nations whose claims to enter
the community are more recent. Sec
ond-The choice of gold payments by
creditors, who necessarily fix the condi-
tions and terms of loans.
These causes are rapidly solving in
the negative the problem of bimetal-
lism. International or otherwise.-Hon.

NJ Cambon's position as Governor
General of Algeria is the highest in the
gift of France, and his new appoint
ment would be construed as a reduction
in rank but for the fact that the
French have conferred upon him the
appointment of honorary Governor OF
Algeria. This is the first lime such a
position has been conferred upon any
man, but it is considered that M. Cam
bon deserves it. He is a diplomat OF
the highest order, and he has had noted
successes. His appointment is consid-
cred as the strongest mark Of the inn
portance the French attach to the
American Embassy. No doubt he will
