Sidelights on Celebrities

Although green is his nations national
color, Parnel had superstitious dislike OF
it. Some of his letters were once confiscat-
ed. Among them was one to his sister at
Avondale, begging her to have certain
green wallpaper removed. When he was
imprisoned at Kilmanham a friend thought
to brighten his cell by sending tab.ecloth.
1t happened to be green. Parnell immedi-
ately hustled it into a corner. Green is an
unlucky color!' he exclaimed.
Mrs Ritchie says that when Thackeray
visited Coventry one of party who met
him said MIR Thackeray, we want you to
let Give marry Ethel. Do let them be hap
py." He replied: "The characters, once
created, lead me, and l follow where they
direct. cannot tell the events that wait on
Ethel and Give" He told Miss Hennell
that he made his women without character,
or else so bad, because that was how he
knew them. Next morning, when they asked
whether he had had good night he an
swered: "How could |, with Col Newcome
making a fool of himself as he has done?"
Mrs. Bray: But why did you let him."

Among some Napoleon letters found in
the library at Malmaison is one reproaching
Josephine for extravaganza. The emperor
advises her to put her affairs in order, not
to spend more than 100000 year and to
save the other 5000, 900. Thus in ten years
she would have accumulated fortune for
her grandchildren. ''Instead of doing this,
however, | am told" he continues, that
you are in debt. If you wish to please me,
take care to fill a fat stocking. What do
you suppose would be my opinion of you if
| knew you to be in debt with an income of
100000 francs a year,"

The Fathers Love

What shall Santa Claus bring to you
When he comes around tonight?"
asked my fair-haired little girl
In the gleam of the freight,
AS she lay in my arms one Christmas eve
With countenance aglow,
And heard of the little old funny man,
That the children all love so.
Il ANTS dolly, tause mine is broke,
l ants some tandy, too;
An l ants a little woody lam,
An l ants more tandy, do;
l dess l ants rockin' horse,
An I fink l ANTS ball.
But know l ant my fovers love
The mos;est lot of all.
gathered my darling close to my heart
That evening long ago,
With a tender clasp and a prayer that He
Would always have 1t so.
God pity the heart that has never known
The love of little child!
This tender. confiding, trustful love.
That keeps one undefiled.
Another beautiful Christmas eve
An angel host appeared
And lured my darling away from me,
Whose love l had endeared;
And, though the sobs of grief will come,
And binding tears will fall,
know that she has "the Fathers love,
The mostest lot of all

One of the prominent features of the times the penchant
to do everything through corporate To do things
by the for the whole people denounced paer
naism when nothing paternal than the granting to
corporations of franchises and privileges The only difference
is general the other limited; is for public

corporation into partnership the whole people had better be
taken into confidence.
1t has become the practice of selfish and designing people
to beege congress legislatures do something promote
private interests to the public injury 1t has to be

men who seek legislation for general benefit The time has

What the Blue Ribbon Meant

Many guests at the social affairs in honor
of the Anglo o-Amercan commissioners have
been exceedingly curious to understand the
meaning of the broad scarf of blue ribbon
edged with white, with an ornate jewel
badge bearing the letters X. G. M. G., worn
by Lord Hershell, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, 81.
Louis Davies and Sir Richard Cartwright.
Those who have inquired have found out
that the decorations are the insignia of the
order of st. Matthew and st. George, one Of
the more modern orders of knighthoodI re-
served exclusively for those holding high
office in the colonies.-From Washington

Quay Initiating a Rogue

Mr. Quay and his lawyers are adopting
Just the course that would naturally be
adopted by shrewd rascal, conscious of
guilt and anxious to avoid punishment by
all the shifts of the law. What would be
the impulse of any honest man accused of
being thief? Would it not be to demand
an immediate trial and secure prompt and
public vindication from the odious charge?
Senator Quay has been accused SO often Of
being thief that he has become used to it
and does not seem to mind it. His only
anxiety, apparently, is to keep out of jail

Two Great Naval Heroes

Whatever may be the purposes of the ad-
ministration and the navy department in
awarding the honors achieved by the navy,
the people of the country have but two great
naval heroes whose names leap spontane-
ously from the hearts of the sovereigns of
the land. These heroes are George Dewey
and Winfield Scott Schley, and any attempt
to steal the laurels won by Schley would be
resented with as much earnestness and de-
termination by the people as they would re-
sent an attempt to strip Admiral Dewey of
his great honors won at Manila.-Philadel-

Permanent Diplomatic Service

Senator Lodge OF Massachusetts, while
earnestly advocating a permanent consular
service, strikes very important objection
to such a system when he calls attention
to the inadequacy OF the pay of our higher
diplomatic officers. There seems no salts
factory reason why, if congress is disposed
to make suitable provision for the becoming
support of our embassies, we should not
have a diplomatic service as free from poll
tics as our army and navy. The prospect Of
a lifelong career Of honor and emolument
would attract numbers of our brightest and
most ambitious youths.-Rochester Her

Alger Would Help His Friends

Secretary Alger wants the government to
build a railroad in Cuba and urges that the
work can be done for the money which we
will have to send to Cuba to feed the people.
Our war secretary is thus far in full accord
with the Socialists who urge public i'm
provements as means of giving idle labor
employment, but he finally gets in his work
for his friends. After constructing such
road he would have it sold to some enter
prising American or Cuban syndicate,which
would mean a repetition of our Pacific rail-
