England has noticed that the Famous
American jockey, Tod Sloan, and the poet
| laureate look remarkably alike It's safe
to wager two to one that plucky Tod
wouldn't hesitate to mount Pegasus If he

Atlanta Journal: The French army
plays such fantastic tricks before nigh
heavens as make The angels weep. 1t put
his grave Esterhazy in London lodging
house. and has now proceeded to put itself
in the nine-hole, Will somebody please
call up Colonel Patee dew Klam?
Houston Post: Our Republican friends
appear TO be growing weary or the war
issue and are DESTROYS of going back to
the money issue. Very good. ANY old
issue suits the Democratic party well
enough this year. The Republican party
is wrong on every issue that can be sug-
gested and the people know 1t.
Omaha World-Herald: Republican
organ in St. Louis says: "One reason why
American tin plate costs less than the
former imported article is the machinery
invented in this country. Shades OF
William Mckinley and Nelson Dingley.

Kansas City Journal: An ingenious ILL
nois scientist has announced discovery
that bids fair to make great inroadS on
the poultry business and at the same time
add luster to the already brilliant halo
that surrounds the COW. He is about to
perfect a process whereby eggs may be
made out of milk, and already there is
marked depression in gallinaceous cir

savant is not content to rest on his laurels,
but is already in not pursuit of an idea

sea COW.
Pittsburg Dispatch: A report from Spain
that the queen regent has pardoned the
'convictS' who served in her army and
navy against the United States conveys a
world of explanation when fully consid-
cred. The assertion has been made be-
fore that the Spanish ranks were filled
from prisons, but it was hardly credited.
This report gives the previous assertions
q strong confederation. With that method
or recruiting, 1t is no wonder that her
navy was wiped out and her land cam
paign an exhibition of Incompetence.

pie Who approved the war at the outset,
hoping and understanding that 1t would
be kept to its Drofessed purposes. and
that, in any event, only its necessary re-
suits in the shape of territorial conquests
should be permitted to endure-those peo-
pie, we say, shall have been piously de-
frauded when peace shall have been made
with the Philippines Incorporated in the
American republic. Humanity" it now
seems, was a gold brick which has turn
ed into an earth-hunger.
