SHERIDAN'S SHYNESS.
How the Sturdy Fighter Reassured an
American Woman at Paris DUR
ing the Commune.

Gen. Sheridan, as he became older.
conquered his shyness, says the Cincin-
natl Commercial Tribune. At the time
of the commune he was in Paris with
his aide-de-camp. There was also s Top
ping at the same hotel a charming
American woman with whom he was
slightly acquainted. The prisoners had
been liberated and were rushing madIy
through the streets. The order had
also been given that all windows and
shutters mast be kept closed. Shut in her
dark room and hearing the noisy rabble
below, the woman became greatly
alarmed.
There is but one thing for me to do
she cried, ito insure safety. will put
myself under the care of the American
general"
She therefore sent her card to Sher-
idan, who at once called and offered his
services. He also advised that she
should join his party in the morning
and get away to London. Still she APP
peared distressed. Finally she cried:
sit is my bonnet at Virot's. They were
to have been down to-day. How can
GO and leave them?"
The general grasped the situa ton,
and offered his arm to escort her to the
milliner's. Happily, it was not far of.
Ever afterward he delighted to tell Of
his pleasure at seeing such al array Of
dainty headgear. He had never been
at milliner's before.

Clever SWindIerS

A clever swindling scheme is being
worked by a pair Of smart fellows in
various parts of the country. One
goes through the country on a good
bicycle and when he stri kes a lively
town he claims to be bard up and Of
fers to sell the wheel cheap to get
some money. Farmers boys admire
bicycles and bite rapidly, paying a
small price for a frst-class wheel.
After few days another sharper
turns up and claims to be looking
for a man who stole his wheel. He
describes it well, giving the number,
and the purchaser has to part with it.
The sharpers raise from $40 to $40 a
trip and start for greener fields.
One Of these fellows struck Lake Mills
about three weeks ago and endeavored
to sell his wheel to John Kelley at a
very low figure, stating that he was
very hard up and needed money more
than the wheel, but John suspected
something was wrong and refused to
buy and the fellow passed on, and
since that time has undoubtedly caught
a large number of suckers. Lake

No Party Question.

We clip the following from an able
editorial in The Milwaukee Sentinel:
Nothing is to be gained by treating
the conduct of the war as a party
question. Nearly all Americans be-
lieve that President Mckinley has
shown wisdom, foresight, skill and
tirmness both IN the negotiations
which preceded the war and in his man
agement Of the war itself Naturally
enough, and reasonably enough, since
President Mckinley happens to be a
Repu blican, the golden opinions he
has gained are among the assets of
the Republican party. But to say
this is not to say that the war was a
Republican war. The credit for our
military and naval successes belongs
to the officers and the men in the
army and navy, and these are neither
Democrats nor Republicans, but
Americans.
1t is gratifying indeed to see the
foremost Republican paperin Wiscon,
sin declare in it's editorial columns
that 1t is beneath the dignity of any
party t. attempt to make q political
issue out Of the conduct of the war.
AS matter OF fact, nobody cares a
rap what the politics is of Dewey or
Sampson or Hobson or Shatter or
Lee or any other soldier. Those men
do not represent q party ora section,
but the nation and all parties and
| sections. 1t Is true that during the
few weeks Immediately preceding the
declaration of war, when the war
sentiment was rampant throughout
the land, the Democratic members of
congress took a stand somewhat
different from that of the majority
of their Republican colleagues, advo-
eating the recognition of Cuban indie
pendence or at least the belligerencY
Of the insurgents. 1t is evident to all
that events during and since the war
have clearly shown that they were
wrong and that the presidents policy
was the wiser, and few Democrats
will be found so narrow that they
will not admit the wisdom of Presi-
dent Mckinley and unwillingly give
him due credit for it. But in the
support of the war and energetic pro-
secution of it there were absolutely
no party lines and it can never be
made party issue without g. sacri-
fee of patriotism and self-respect on
the part of the party so using it

ABOUT WORRYING.
Mi. StoggletOn Prescribes an Easy
Remedy for Too Common
Complaint.

Everybody tells u.s." says Mr.. Stog-
gleton, mot to worry. They tell US that
worry never did anybody any good, and
that on the other hand it absolutely i'm
pairs ones capacity for work, and so
helps to aggravate the very situation
that we are worrying over. This is true,
all of it, and sound advice it is, too, and
it has all been said many times; but it
should be more often supplemented
with detailed instructions as to how to
avoid worrying. Now let me make a try
at it. Perhaps shall repeat things that
I've said before; bat if I do, it will be
because I think they're good for hui
manity.
"A prime necessity of our permanent
freedom from worrying is the posses
sion of the personal quality commonly
known as sand. If a man has not been
endowed with sand by nature he must
pick it up for himself; nobody is going
to give bin any, but he can do this
easier than he thinks.
'Most Of the things we worry over
are only bugbears that fade and disap-
pear upon the first attack. Herein lies
the first secret of success-in attack;
and the great secret lies in persistence,
in keeping always at work. The man
who actually does this, wasting no time,
will find, the first thing he knows. that
he's stopped worrying, and be laughs
little as he says to himself that he's
got no time to worry; ard the next
thing he knows he finds his sardbox is
no longer empty, he's actually got some
sand of his own, and then he is some
body and begins to find some solid sat
isfaction in life''

THE strength of President Mckinley
with the people OF the United States
IS growing and developing every day.
Men OF all classes and professions,
regardless OF political affiliations, are
known in this popular uprising in his
favor. An incident which occurred at
the Saratoga foreign policy conference
Will illustrate the fact that the pres-
dent is held In high esteem by men Of
opposite politics coming even from
the far South. During the proceed
lngs Of the Saratoga conference some
eastern delegate made statement
rejecting on the administration in
connection with war expenditures.
Scarcely had the speaker uttered the
words when E. H. Bacon, of Georgia.
