ONE VIEW OF THE MILLENNIUM.
\ New York Clergyman Advocates
Edward Bellamy's Social system.


North TonawanJia, y. Y, Jan. 20.-The
Rev. B. Q. Denham, an eloquent and pEonIi-
nent divine formerly of Kansas City created
big stir in this city Tuesday night by
delivering a lecture which was the climax
OF a series Ofsarmons in adyOCaCyof Edward
Bellamy's social scheme. The Rev. Mr.
Denham is the pastor of the wealthiest
and most fashionable congregation in
this city, and his radical teachings have
caused much surprise.
Last Sunday morning lie declared that
Gods Will would not be done on earth as
it is done in heaven until the plan of
government advocated by Edward Bel
amy was f.Illy realized. In his lecture he
declared that the signs of the times indi-
cate that the day of its realiza ton is about
TO dawn.
AS stepping stones II this he advocate
the income tax, the single tax and the
naturalization of railways, coal mines and
telegraph systems.
One great point presented by the
speaker was that of the inequality of
land holdings. He declared that man no
more made land thar he did sunshine MI
air, and lie ha d no more right to monopOlize
the one than the other.

Trenton GOssips Think Gould Is Map
ping Out IA Future i'm Politics.
Trenton, Ian. 2O.-The political gossips
at the capital are predicting a career in
politics for George j. Gould. They find
ground for this prophecy in Mr.. Gould's ap-
pearance as a United States grand Juror,
and in the close friendship between Mr..
Gould and Capt. Bradshaw, of Lakewood.
They argue that Mr.. Gould must have ha d
special reason for serving on a jury for So
day and mileage. when il was not diff
ficult to avoid that work.
Bradshaw has for many years been a
leading Republican politician of Ocean
county. His hold upon the party there
is so strong that he could bring about
MFR. Goulds nomination to the State senate
without difficulty.
Besides, Mr. Gould has apparently gone
out OF bis way to become personally ac-
quainted with other leading Republicans
of Ocean county.

preciated Griffin's strong sense OF DUTY.

The Dingley prosperity strike of the
New England cotton mill hands still
drags along. Both sides seem confident
each is equally snre that the, other will
yield. One bad effect of the movement
upon the interests Of labor is that the
mills working upon fine fabrics have
found a way TO dispense entirely with
the mule spinners, who We're the best
paid Of all the mill hands, earning
twelve or fourteen dollars a week, the
average wage Of an operative being six
dollars. The situation, otherwise, is
without material change. Mill owners
complain bitterly that the growing
competition of the South is knocking
the profit completely out of the New
England industry. If their view is cor
rect the time must come within the
next decade or two when the cotton
manufacture win be altogether in sight
of the fields that produce the staple.
Present plants will be continued to
some extent. especially those turning
out the higher grades; but it is prob
able that new plants will be confined
TO the cotton States, and that, in twen-
ty years. the industry, with all it's
skilled labor, will have taken wing to

LEE PERHAPS AVERTED WAR.
His Refusal to summon an American
WarshiD.

|
New York, Jan. 20.-Sylvester Sco-
vel cables to the World from Havana
that Gen. Lee probably averted war
| between Spain and the United States
by refusing to summon a warship dur
1 ing the recent riots here when be-
| seeched TO do so. He expects to ask
for fighting vessel quick enough to be
| present in case a future riot should
take an anti-American turn. He is
| watching the situation closely. and is
better informed of what is going on
| than is Governor General Blanco HIM
| self.
But though Gen. Lee is yigilant,
prompt to act and well informed, the
uncertainty of the situation and the
possibility that a future anti-autono-
my riot might accidentally and sud
denly turn against Americans here be-
fore the consul general could get men
of-war here seem TO demand warship
in Havana harbor now. One, or even
three ships could enter without ex-
citement, now, that the city is quiet.
Last Wednesdays disturbance in
Havana had absolutely no anti-Ameri
can significance. The reports in other
New York papers were exaggerated.
The mob ultimately grew small and
the only dangerous element in it was
the handful of Spanish officers. The
rest We're very young men and boys.
Gen. Blanco massed a large number
OF regulars in this city because the
government feared that the presence
Of army officers in the mob meant a
serious military plot.
That apprehension was unfounded.
The whole affair had no deeper signi-
hcance than those army officers dis
approval of autonomy and the auto
nomical organs which were attacking
Weyler and through him the Spanish
army.
General Lee terms the disturbance a
family affair."
He was beseeched by naturaliZed cit
iZens of the United States and very
few native-born Americans TO demand
warships Through his wel-organized
channels of information he had learned
that the volunteers were not concern
ed in the attack. He had clearly
proved that the riot had nothing to
do with Americans So General Lee
told the scared applicants that there
would be no trouble, but he advised
them TO leave if they were too un-
easy. Consequently some OF them are
bitter against him now.
Regular troops are close at hand still
and the volunteers, in addition to their
usual palace and Jail guard duty, also
guard the Diario de la Marina, the
Discussion and the Reconeentrado
newspaper offices. General Blanco has
taken strong precautionary measures
to suppress any further disturbance.
He says he Will not be another Dulce.
The anneXatiOnist feeling is growing
among the Spanish merchants. They,
themselves may soon ask General Lee
for protection.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 20, 1888.
Notes of the Day.

Although not much impressed with
the ingenuousness of Mr.. Hits conf
dences," impaired 10 the House vester-
day, in his remarks on the Cuban pol
icy Of the Administration. We are sails
fed that they viii have a salutary cf-
feet in showing the country and Spain
that American sentiment has become
too strong and wrathful for even a
practically Spanish administration
longer to ignore. Mr.. Hit plainly con-
veyed the insinuation, and. OF course.
intended to, that the object Of the con-
centration Of our fleet at Dry Tortugas
was intervention in cuba. To the ex-
tent that MIR. Mckinley designed the
demonstration with view TO its effect
upon the public in creating the belief
that he would do something at last
and thus gain some additional delay.
we agree with the view Of Mr.. Hit.
That he ever has entertained the least
idea Of Intervention in behalf Of the
battling patriots. we are not prepared
to admit, in view of the consistency
and yigcr Of his past policy in doing
everything he dared TO in aid Of Spain
and against the Republic Of Cuba Mr.
Hits frantic appeal 10 the House ma
jority to abstain from voting for the
belligerency resolution. on the ground
that such matters belong Of right to the
Executive, ought TO have fallen upon
deaf ears. When the Executive fails
and refuses to do its plain duty il is
time to ignore considerations Of cour-
tesy and for the legislative branch Of
the Government to act. 1t should act
at once, Mr.. Mckinley and Mr.. Hit
to the contrary Notwithstanding. All
the same. there viii be lively bowling
in Havana and Madrid when news Of
the incident reaches those cities.
The evening times., 1898-01-20

There is some reason to fear that Mr.
Mckinley has absorbed some errone-
Gus political notions during the past
year or so. When be was in Congress
the average opinion of him was that.
while not a brilliant man in any sense.
he was possessed of fair perceptions
and judgment. After that time. and
while he was governor Of Ohio. he en-
countered very serious business
troubles, which might have been en-
barrassing in more senses than one if
friends like Hanna and Senor Pie y
Kohlsaat, Of Chicago, had not rushed
TO the rescue and squared the matter.
In the natural and commendable graf
itude which a good man like Mr.. Nc
Kinley would feel toward those who
had saved him from a serious predic-
ament, il is possible that he may have
grown into the habit Of placing too
much confidence in the political views
and methods of those who formed that
syndicate of salvation. Perhaps one
in such position might easily be par
doned for thinking that people who
could do so noble and disinterested an
act would be incapable of doing any
thing wrong, and even to believe that a
wrong act, if committed by such hands.
could become ipsO facto a vir-
tuous one. Probably Mr.. McKinley's
defense Of the Hanna manipulations in
Louisiana prior to the Republican Ma
tional Convention in 1896, might be ex-
plained upon some such grounds.

A Valuable Mouth .

Deep water at the mouth of the Missis-
Sippi River is probably more valuable to
the world than is deep water anywhere
else i'm America. Not only is this true, but
the reason why ft is so is plain enough.
In this Mississippi Valley is the worlds
granary. In this Mississippi Valley is
grown the worlds cotton supply. Can there
be anything more important than bread
and clothes? This question answers it.

kaiser's Large Expenses.

From the Pail Mall Gazette
A lively controversy is raging in Berlin
just now as to where the money is TO come
from to defray the cost of the kaiser's
approaching visit to Jerusalem Even
though his majesty is to go as a Cooks
tourist, the expense entailed by the ex-
redition will be very considerable; and, as
all the world knows, the imperial privy
purse is by no means too well filled at the
present time. There is a rumor that the
kaiser may ask subjects TO come 20 his
assistance in the matter; and in consid-
Grafton OF the advantages that may accrue
to the empire from his stay In the east
add to his civil list a special grant in aid
this year. If he be well advised, however
he Will think twice-nay, even thrice-be-
fore doing anything of the kind, for iudg-
ing by the tone in which the subject IS be-
ing discussed, his chance of obtaining a
single pfennig is nil. no matter how per-
suasively DR.. Won Miguel may plead for
him. Indeed, bitter complaints are already
TO be heard on all sides as to the way the
civil list has increased in these latter days.
Tie present kaisers income is more than
twice as large that which the ola kaiser
had: and yet he is always in sore need of
money, to the infinite dsmay of his cheese
pairing Prussians. who cannot conceive
what he does with his income.

THE SNEEZING SEASON.
Long Brenths VIII Drive Away Cold

From Pearscns Weekly
cold as nearly every intelligent person
knows, is the result Of a stoppace some
where Of free circulation Of the blood. to
which one is first sensitive through a feel
ing of chill
So slight is the chill oftentines that not
until the preliminary sneeze comes is the
victim aware he or she has been in the
track of draught, or that the temperature
has changed
The usual notion is that by going indoors,
changing to heavier clothing or retreating
from the moist atmosphere the danger is
aNerted. These precautions are all well
enough, but the first and most efficac{
measure should be to restore the quick
flow of warm blood through every vein, and
SO by heat Instantly counteract the little
One, perhaps the simplest method Of do
ing this, has been learned by men who
stand on sentinel duty who are Obliged to
SuHer more or less exposure in winter, or
VINO scorn the comforts in cold weather Of
cvercOat and umbrella
Their method, when the tenperattir of
me body or extremities is lowered or a
sudden chill or quick change from warm ia
cold atmosphere is endured. is to inhale
three or four deep breaths expand the
lungs TO their fullest extent holding every
time the inhaled air as long as possible
and then slowly letting it forth through
the nostrils.
In doing this the imitation Of the lungs
sets the heart into such quick motion that
the blood is driven with unusual force along
ITS channels and so runs out into the tiniest
veins.
This radiates a glow down to the toes
and nnger tips and sets up quick reaction
against the chill. The whole effect is to
stir the blood and set it in motion as from
rapid exercise.

ball in low-necked dress, where the rooms
are chilly and her wraps not accessible try

tive against cold and enjoy its merits
Let her try ii when taking a cold drive or
