Mrs. cleve,apd.s courte.v.

The following pretty story is told Of
Mrs. Grover Cleveland: At one of the
public receptions given at the White
House an old lady who was drawn up
in the line that was pushing its way
forward to shake hands with the presi-
dents wife dropped her handkerchief
just before getting to Mrs. Cleveland.
She was too old and rheumatic to stoop
down aud cov it, and those back Of
her in the line were too intent upon get
ting the II fieeting glimpse possible of
the mistress of the White House to no.
tice the old lady's loss, and the hand
kerchief vas trampled upon roughly.
Just before the old lady reached her
Mrs. Cleveland stepped out of her place
and deftly picked up the handkerchief,
tucked it in her dress and, taking her
own fresh one, which was of the most
delicate, dainty lace, smilingly handed
it to the old lady with the sweet re-
mark, "Plcase take mine, and when
you get home send it hack to me, will
you?" And when the handkerchief came
back to her Mrs. Cleveland returned
that Of the owner, freshly Numbered,

rosebuds that came from the White

The "mixed pickles" party is in a

quent speakers who two years ago de-
clared that if Mckinley was elected the
country would Immediately go to the
"demnition bow vows, farmers would
become a horde of tramps, and society
would become chaos, r at a loss to
account for the present prosperous

the convention said that the silver

About the R
EDITOR STAR:

1 notice that there are several in
fuences at work for the education of
the people this year and with your
permission 1 will notice a few of them.
The first and most important of these
is the Initiative and Referendum,
which is to be voted on by the people
of this state at the coming election, in
the hope or the part Of the populists
that it may be made a part of the or
ganic law of the state. You will notice
in the first place that very little is be-
ing said by the populist press ABOUT
the submission of this proposition to
the people; the reason for this is that
they intend to make a still hunt; they
know that left to themselves nearly
one half the people never vote on a
constitutional amendment, and while
they say little about it publicly, they
will impress it on the minds of their
following, privately and secretly, that
every populist must vote "yes" on that
amendment, and the result will be that
unless the utter foolishness and rank
a%bsurdity of the measure is fully made
known to the republican voters, the
amendment will carry in spite of fate.
What ~ heavenly time we should have
if this echeme should win. Everybody
ought to read that proposed amend
ment if only for curiosity. 1t is pro-
posed that legislation shall originate
from the people, and the proposition
has a lofty sound. For instance John
Smith while blowing corn evolves from
his inner consciousness AN idea which
he believes should be enacted into law;
he starts a petition which he easily
gets five per cent of the voters to sign,
as it is we'll known Il majority of men
will sign any paper that may bepushed
under their noses, provided it costs
nothing, and the governors is compelled
to call an election. Elections would
be thicker than Sundays, andthe pres
ent revenue of the state would not be
sufficient for election expenses. The
o.lice of judge of election, now con-
sidercd Il bore and a nuisance, would
become a fat thing, and the pop poll
tician would be in clover. 1t is true
taxes would be largely increased but
what of that. So much for the Init
alive; the Referendum part would be
easy, for of course the average voter
could and would study all the laws
passed at a session of the legislature
and be ready to approve or disapprove
of them within a month after adjourn
ment. There were several other Tin.
fluences" that l wanted to notice but
1 have filled my limit.

Barcelona is a great trading port,
about OH u level with Marseilles. It has
grown very much within recent years.
The Barceloncse consider themselves a
model to all Spain in the matter Of. in.
dustry and in common sense, yet in this
town, which is really a handsome place
and rich, She head telegraph Office is in
the suburbs; there is only one branch
Office in town, aud messages have to be
sent from TINT by hand. The p~ostoffice
is we'll away from the port in a by
street. If you are there OH business, you
will find as likely as not that one clerk
is in attendance out Of an immense
staff. He will probably be very polite,
but he will put his hand to q pen or a
bundle of letters as if he feared they
would burn, and Barcelona is a model
Of smartness compared with Madrid.
One wonders what would happen to
the dawdling officials one sees at these
places if they were transported by some
malignant fairy to st. Martin's-le-
Grand. Madness would probably DO
their fate if they made an effort to meet
the call. But then they would not. The
hurry and drive would simply revolt
their sense of what was due to q GENTLE

The tremendous jangle Of the doorbell

above the handle of the doorpost, "Pull

ARTILLERY Terms.

All artillery may be divided into two
main Glasses, heavy and light. Heavy
artillery is called also garrison artillery.
Heavy artillery guns are placed perma-
nently in forts, and the men who handle
them form foot artillery batteries and
regimenta Light artillery refers to
guns not permanently emplaced-that
is, light enough to be taken from place
to place by means Of horses and ma
neuvered by hand. In our army the
light artillery gunners ride on the cais-
sons and gun carriages. In horse artil-
lery the gunners ride horses. so that a
horse artillery battery has a great many
more horses than q light battery. We
have NO horse batteries in our army. A
field battery is a light battery. A flying
battery is a horse battery. Siege guns
are between heavy and light artillery.
They are intended to be placed perma-
nently for the time being and are
brought to their places by teams. but
they are not Unanswered as light guns
are.-New York Sun.
