Tea. Coffee and Nerves,

Everybody in England drinks tea;
morning, noon and night, and nervous

more coffee than the English do, with
plenty Of tea besides; and nervous dis
eases are on the increase here, too.

Very Particular.

FreQuenters of the variety show and
circus are aware that during the per-
Torrance of acrobats or jugglers the
band usually plays an inspiring march
or dreamy waltz, according to the
nature of the feats. 1t is generally be-
lieved that the selection of airs played
under these circumstances is left to the
leader of the orchestra, but this is quite
wrong. AS a fact, acrobatS and Jug
glers are amazingly particular as to
their music, and carry their own band
parts from one place of entertainment
to another where they may happen to
be engaged. 1t is easily conceivable
that, when a man has become used to
certain piece of music, he would be con-
siderably distracted by an unfamiliar
piece played during the performance of
dangerous and delicate feats-more es-
pecially when the new music is played
in a different time and key. The lead
er of an orchestra in a celebrated va
riety theater states that acrobats and
gymnasts are accustomed to rehearSe
with the band precisely in the way that
vocalists do, and attributes a somewhat
serious accident to trapezist Of which
he was once witness, to the fact that
some members of the band had on that
particular night been INDUCING too
freely in stimulants, and the music was
consequently a little cratic.

Direct Vote of the People.

1t is a singular and not generally
known fact that no official Of the
United States is elected by the direct
vote of the people. The President and
Vice President are not named In the
ballots cast at a presidential election,
but in their stead appear the names Of
a number of gentlemen, most of whom
are unknown even by name to the
great mass of voters. The members of
the Presidents Cabinet are selected by
himself and are confirmed on his
recommendation as his personal ad-
visers. Supreme justices, judges Of
the Circuit and District Courts are
named by the President, who, with his
Cabinet, nominates, with a few trivial
exceptions, all other United States
officials. Members of the United
States Senate are elected 10y the State
Legislatures. Representatives are
voted for directly by the people, but
neither Senators nor Representatives
are properly officials of the United
States. While the people of this coun-
try are the ruling power, the exercise
Of that power, SO far as the United
States Government is concerned, is
largely indirect.

the course of the President, and express
our confidence in his speedy and patriotic
disposition Of the Cuban question in &C

We believe that the administration in
negotiating the treaty for the annexation
of Hawaii has acted wisely and we ex-

the same.
We denounce the violation of the spirit
of the civil service act by President Cleve-

operation beyond its purpose and intent,
and demand such revocation of orders or
modification of the law as will accomplish
