Fascination of Mountains.

There is this peculiar fascination
about the eternal mountains: They
never recall the trifiing or the vul-
gariZing associations of old days.
There are times when the bare sight
of a letter, ring OF an old house
overpowers some people with the
rush of early memories. ! am not
so happily constituted. Relics of the
conventional kind have pervorse
trick of reviving those petty Incl
dents which one would buy back
with a year of the life that is left.
Our English fields and rivers have
the same malignant freakishness
Nature in our little island is too
much dominated by petty needs of
humanity to have an affinity for the
simpler and deeper emotions. With
the Alps it is otherwise. There, as
after a hot summer day, the rocks
radlate back their stores of heat,
every peak and forest seems to be
still redolent with the most fragrant
perfume of memory. The trifling
and veXatiOus incidents cannot adj
here to such mighty monuments of
bygone ages. They retain whatever
of high and tender and pure emo
ton that may have once been asso-
ciated with them. If l were to in
vent a new idolatry (rather a need
less task, I should PROSTATE my
self, not before a beast or ocean or
sun, but before one of those gigantic
masses to which, in spite of all rea-
son, it is impossible not to attribute
some shadowy personality. Their
voice is mystic and has found dis
cordant interpreters, but to me, at
least, it speaks in tones at once
more tender and more awe inspiring
than that of any mortal teacher.

Solving q Problem.

Sir w. R. Hamilton kept head
strong horse, to which he had given
the name of Comet, and used to gal
lop it in circles, or perhaps in
ellipses, round the lawn. On one oc-
casion he mounted him in Dublin
just after a curious mathematical
problem had suggested itself to him.
The horse took a mean advantage
of his abstraction and ran away.
"When found it impossible to stop
him., he said, Il gave him his head
and returned to the problem. He
ran for four miles, and stood still at
my gate-just as the problem was
solved! "Recollections of Aubrey

A remarkable surgical case is re-
ported from Chicago. A man was
suffering from what was thought to
be an abscess on one Of his ribs.
An operation was performed, and it

Mr.. DAVITT'S OPINION.
The Irish Leader on tho Anglo-American
Alliance.


Alliance.
New York. May 24-Michael Davitt, the
Irish national leader in the British parlia-
ment. has sent a letter to Rosa f.
Downing, at Washington, containing the
following:
II nave your favor of the Sd inst. in
closing an extract from dispatches cabled
to the United States from London, as
sorting that Englishmen would extend a
warm support to America, but that the
Irish, as Catholics. wish success for the
prosecutors of the Cubans. OF course, this
is a palpable falsehood and Is part of the
campaign waged by the London press.
with the object of promoting an alliance
between Great Britain and the United
States at a time when no other nation in
the world will ally itself withsthe ruler of
India and Ireland. Over and over again
here il has been made manifest that we
Irish are heartily with America in her
disinterested mission for the liberation Of
Cuba from European tyranny.
THE one object of Great Britain Is to
secure the alliance of America against
Russia in China and the far east. In or
der to chiev this end lies of all kinds
are being cabled to the pro-British press
of New York about a possible European
coalition against America in favor OF
Spain. There is absolutely no foundation
for these statements.
1T crossed to Paris and satisfied myself
In interviews with various continental
representatives that such a coalition was
a pure English fabrication. Russia will
never join any movement hostile to the
United States, while the German govern
ment announced that there is no thought
in that country of being hostile to the
nation in which there are IL, 0OO,0 900 natives.
The republic of France would be shaken
to its foundation IL its rulers dared to
join In a coalition against the sister re-
public beyond the Atlantic"

IN EXECUTIVE SESSION.
A Number Of Nomination. Confirmed ny
the senate.

Washington. May ei.-In the executive
session of the senate to-day there was
some discussion as to who would be
chosen to comma the immune troops.
Senator Money was the principal speaker.
and he expressed doubt as TO whether IL
would be possible to raise regiments of
men who had had yellow fever in case
officers for such organizations were taken
from the Northern states and were men
who had not been subjected to this dis
ease.
There were two roll calls In the execu-
tive session, one of them being upon the
confirmation OF N. s.. walpole OF Colo
RADIO to be agent for the Pueblo and Gil
rsculli Indians In New Mexico. and the
other upon the confirmation of James q.
Power OF Pennsylvania to he receiver of
public moneys at Perry, O. #. There were
adverse reports against both on the
ground OF non-residence. but both were
confirmed by considerable majorities. A
large number of other nominations I'm the
army and navy were confirmed. including
the following: To be chief surgeons with
the rank of major-Clayton Parkhill, Col
orado: Robert c. Cardwell. oregon. To be

which was participated in by Mr.. Lind
say. Mr.. Cockrell of Missouri. Mr.. Tel
Ter of Colorado and Mr.. Stewart OF Ne
vada.
Mr.. Lindsay maintained that the syn
dictate would raid the gold reserve OF
the government and that II the legal
tender notes were issued they would
certainly be redeemed in gold, and IL
reissued, would again be redeemed in
gold.
I'VE shall have an opportunity then"
said Mr.. Cockrell, Ito test the patriot
ism of the holders OF the greenbacks.
So they would raid the treasury to OBJ

senator from Missouri" replied Mr..
Lindsay. lis hat he still believes the
gold raiding sy~ndicates are patriots.
and I do not. TheySwil take every ad-
vantage offered them, even in time OF
war"
In conclusion. and partly In answer
TO questions put to him by Mr.. Tillman
of south Carolina. Mr.. Lindsay said:
The war will not go for two or three
years unless we break down our credit
at the outset. The issue of legal ten
der notes proposed here would have that
effect"
WELL interrupted Mr. Tillman. 'in
what kind of money will the bonds you
propose TO issue be paid for?"
THE bonds issued" replied Mr.. Lind
say. will be sold for money as good
as gold, and the funds so raised will be
used to pay the boys who are TO be sent
to Cuba to face Spanish bullets and
yellow fever. our credit will be as
good as gold. and at the end of the war
we will have conducted II on the cheap
est possible basis. We may become in
volved with the continental powers
and the time may come when we cannot
go further IN a coin basis. either gold
or silver. and then we will be compelled
to come to the issue of gr~eenbacks.
When that time comes whatever neces-
sity demands will be done. 1t will be
charged up with the debt. But We an
not promote that state OF affairs. We
cannot discredit ourselves at the very
outset by resorting to a currency which
is I'm the nature of a forced loan, by is
suing notes payable on demand, and
putting no money in the treasury to
pay them upon demand"
At the conclusion Of Mr.. Lindsay's
speech the revenue bill was laid aside.
on motion OF Mr.. Allison the senate
agreed to meet at II a. m. tomorrow.
After the transaction of some routine
business the senate then, at 4:33 y. m,
went into executive session. after which
the senate adjourned.
