The Effect of Fright.

Thompson cites the case Of work
man at York, who, having fallen from
a high building that he was repairing
succeeded in holding on to the gut
ter with one hand. He was rescued
but not until his hair had turned white e
While the hair of people verging to
ward middle age turns gray slowly ant
progressively, the whitening Of single
hair usually occurs in one night. Thi:
gives some ground for belief wher
stories are told of people whose hail
has become white in one night through
fright.
A Dutch physician, Junius, tells of 8
denmed to be beheaded, grew gray IL
one night. The same thing happenel
to Signeur de ST. Waller, father of Di-
ana of Poitiers, while Guarini, professor
of Greek in Verona, grew gray all a
once on learning of the loss at sea of 6
chest of manuscripts that was comine
from CDnstantinople.

JUDGE M'KENNA.
Stockton Independent: Judge McKen-
mas nomination has been confirmed,
and many of those who tried TO pre-
vent confirmation will naturally feel
chagrined and indignant The oppo-
sition to him was so factious that 1t
reacted and aided him. The objection
that his learning and experience are
insufficient failed because it was so
vaguely made that it amounted to only
an assumption without a single fact
or instance to support it. Against all
the objection stood the facts that his
service on the circuit bench, though
brief, was in every respect creditable,
and that his reputation for purity and
integrity was of the highest. AS to has
learning, the fact that none of his de-
cisions have been seriously disputed
in the effort to defeat his confirmation
stands as an admission that it is ample
for the position. The few Californians
opposed his confirmation may be ex-
pected to continue their grumb6ng, but
they should not be gTudged the poor
satisfaction it will give them. Mean
time Judge McKenna will continue to
prove a credit to the State, as he al
ways has done.

rs IT NOT A FAIR SHOWING?

Our friend, the enemy, never tires Of
asking when the good times are due
that were promised as the sequence of
Republican success a little over year
ago. It is not at all certain that any
one promised the return of good times
instantly. What was held out was
this, that Republican success would re-
store public confidence, where the sue
cess Of Organism would destroy it ut
terly; that Republican success would
tend to hasten the approach of good
times; that Republican success would
set wheels rolling then still and silent
in the shops Of industry, and that grad
ually, as people gained confidence in
the stability of the new policy and in
each other. purse strings would be un-
tied and investment would begin again.
It was not promised that there would
be no more failures, no more strikes,
no closing down here and putting up of
shutters there; for be times good or
bad, such things in so great a nation
as ours, with such varied industries
subjected to so many conflicting influ-
ences, these things are always happen
ing. But how has 1t been? Conf
dence has been restored; investment
is once more on the top Of the tide;
receiverships are diminishing; failures
have decreased in number; prices have
gone UP, and interest has gone down;
money is plenty and begs for chance
of employment; hundreds Of thousands
OF Idle hands are now busily employed:
new Industries have been planted and
old ones rejuvenated.
Though anticipatory importations cut
off millions Of revenue the country
would have received, still the income of
the nation is steadily mounting up to
the top notch Of desirability, and pres
ent deficit promises to be wiped out and
a surplus substituted in due time. The
latest statistics of the Treasury De-
partment, just issued. show that the
value of our exports for the year 1897
aggregated no less than S1,100 O00. 900.
an increase of 500. 900, 900 over any pre-
ceding year.
It is shown also that the trade bal
ance is now in our favor to the tune of
$500. 900. the highest point ever
reached in the history of the country.
Our exports for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1897. amounted to value of
SI,o32,OO0.oOO. the highest figure prior
TO that being in 1892. when it was
S1,o15, 100000. And yet Uncle Sam and
Uncle Bill Mckinley have not been in
partnership a round year to this date.

RASCALS AND FOOLS.

But on the other hand when we re-
fleet that a rascal succeeds in such
cases only because the other fellow is
q. fool, we are disposed to modify the
severe judgment. Here is the story
from the San Bernardino Free Press
of January 18th:

Judge Hudson of South Carolina asks
that State to pass law prohibiting the
carrying of weapons. He says his
study of the subject has convinced him
that frequency of murder in South Car
DINA is due to non-restraint regarding
the carrying of pistols. The Judge is
mistaken. We have a law in California
prohibiting the carrying of concealed
weapons. But 1t amounts TO nothing.
No one thinks it a grievous offepse TO
violate it, and no one is molested for
violating the law save in rare cases, as
when a man is taken i'm for some
thing else, and a weapon is found upon
him. No, the law the good Judge de-
sires win not check murder. He must
reach deeper than that, get down to
the root Of the evil, the decayed moral
sense that so cheapens life that mur-
der has lost its heinous character in the
eyes Of shooting South Carolinians. You
must teach your growing South Caro-
lima boys and girls to look with more
Of awe and respect upon human life of

CROWNED USURPERS.
Nearly Every European Monarch
Said to Have a False Title.

The White Rose League of England
makes the startling assertion that near
ly every throne in Europe is occupied
by usurper; that So per cent. Of the
English nobility bear spurious titles.
and above all, that the rightful Queen
of England is not the gracious lady who
has ruled so well for sixty years, but
Queen Mary ", now living in obscur-
ity as Princess Of Bavaria.
The true Queen of England is thus
described by the League: Mary ~. of
England. Ireland and Wales and III. of
Scotland, born July =, 1S49; succeeding
November 20, 1878: heir apparent, her
son Robert, Prince of Wales, born May
IS. 1869; name of usurping ruler, Vic
toria, Princess of Hanover"
Queen Mary ", it appears, traces
her descent from the daughter of
Charles T., while Queen Victoria is de-
scended from a daughter of James l.,
and is thus not in direct line of sue
cession. BY strange oversight, which
is fatal to the Leagues argument, no
mention is made OF the Act of Settle
ment. which puts a different complex
.on on matters.
1t is interesting to note that among
mid IL of Turkey. The Turkish throne,
according TO the League, has been va
cant since h453." The crowns of France
and Spain belong equally to the notori-
Gus Spanish Pretender, Don Carlos,
who is rightly Charles VII. of Spain and
Charles XII of France.
The League also frames serious in
iictment against Britain's boasted peer
age. Out of 514 English peers seventy
two only are entitled to sit in the House
of Lords; and of these the Dukes of
Manchester, Newcastle, Devonshire and
Marlborough, together with the present
Premier. are only entitled to rank as
Earls. Only forty-two Of the 176 Irish
peers bear acknowledged titles. and
none higher rank than that of Earl.
The League, whose members are
sworn to restore the Jacobite dynasty,
would revive all peerages existing in
the days of the Stuarts, and recognize
an American artisan as the Earl of
Clancarty, a Spanish noble as Duke of
Berwick, and two obscure Irishmen as
Earls of Limerick and Tyronnell.
