A blind man picked out his dead
wife in the New York mcrgue few
days ago by bis delicate sense Of
touch, says an exchange. Two
women, both of the same name, and
both Of whom died in BELLEVUE, were
taken to the deadhouse about the
same time. When the morgue- keeper
caught the blind mans right hand
and guided it to an upturned face,
he said. "No, no; that's not my Ma
ry" The drawer was closed and
the next one was pulled out. The
sightless man laid down his stick
this time and USED both hands. His
face was TRANSPORTED as the tips of
Ills fingers rested ON the sharp set,
Geld features. "Mary," he whis-
persd, 90 have found you dear
Hog thin your face has grown
How cold you ere, Mary-how
cold." IKE blind man had made no
mistake, Tue dead woman had been
his wife.

constitutional GovCrHIn-n. 80 >---.-~..
Constitutional government was
established in Japan III 1890 It was
the direct result of the promise
made by his majesty and was spon.
taneous gift of some of the imperial
powers and prerogatives to the PEG.
pie. Steps had been taken previous.
ly to pave the way for the adoption
OF parliamentary institutions by ex-
tending the rights and privileges of
the people, most morally by the ere
alton of the prefectural assemblies,
which exercise a certain degree of
control over local affairs. Whether
or not such measures were of essen,
tial value it is not necessary to in
quire in this place. In any case it
can now be truthfully stated that
parliamentary government in Japan
has passed the experimental stage
and is established among the per
manent institutions of the land. OF
course this has not been accomplish
ed without friction between the ex-
ecutive and Legislative branches of
the government. Political storms
rage in Japan just as in other coun-
tries, but the new institutions have
stood the strain of all conflicts.
Every such struggle has been car
ried on scrupulously within the
limits defined by the constitution
and every disputed question has
been settled in accordance with its
provisions. The constitution is re-
vered by the people as the founda-
ton of the self government gracious
ly conferred upon them by their
sovereign, and its mandates are uni
versally regarded as sacred and in
violable. -.Toru Hoshi in Harper
Magazine.

Where work wears ont one, wor-
ry wears out thousands. There Is
less happiness among the greater
than among the humble, among the
rich than among the poor. "But if
these limitations could only be re-
movedl'' "It | could be my best
solf!" eff ! could have that for
which l know am ftted.w All,
greatness of gift always implies
greatness Of responsibility; if one
limitation goes, another comes; that
which seems to give freedom only
increases slavery. Almost all men,
like birds, beat themselves against
their cages, longing to get into some
different world, to soar beneath
some more splendid skies, ignorant
OF the abysses in that large world
and of the storms which sweet
those skies. OF the Master it was
said: "Who fer the joy that was
set before him endured the cross. .
The cross preceded the joy, as the
mountain climb is befor, thy vision
OF earth and skies.

The ldler is never happy. The
time hangs heavily on his hands.
The busy one never notices its fight.
Indeed it seems all too short Cor the
accomplishment Of his worthy ends.
He is, too, less liable to temptation
than the one who finds both occu-
patton and recreation bore. Do
your level best, at all times and in
all places. You owe this much to
your friends, yourself and to the
Higher Power that created. Then,
whether your earthly existence be
long or short, you will achieve as
much happiness as the world can
offer, and will be we'll prepared fol-
the bliss that has no ending. Fol
low the poet Longfellow's advice
and be up and doing, with a heart
for anything.

MIR. MoRLEYs SOUND TALK.

That was a sensible speech which the
Right Honorable John Morley made In
Parliament day or two ago on the pro-
posed Anglo-American alliance. We
quote from the printed report:
Proceeding TO discuss the kind Of alli-
ance intended, Mr.. Morley said II II IS
an alliance for peace and harmonious CO.
operation for the mutual good, IL Will,
indeed. be the dawn OF brighter days.
But is that what is intended? or Is 1t
10 be an alliance between the Jingoes OF
America and the jingoes of England an
alliance not for peace. but for menace
and war?
eve shall see, but I know tens of
thousands OF the best and wisest men
In America believe that hardly any more
inexpressibe calamity can befaH man
kind than that a community as Lincoln
noblv said conceived I'm freedom ana
dedicated to the happiness OF free and
equal men should entangle themselves IN
the unrest OF militaryism which is the
torment and scourge Of the old world.
As kindly as we feel towards the Eng
nsh people, we can see no good but pos
sibly a great deal OF harm to come out
OF formal alliance AS Mr.. Morley in
Inmates. 1t would probably be an alliance
OF jingoes and would be used for purposes
other than the general good OF the Two
nations.
We do not like the spirit in which this
question is discussed. II has been time
and again suggested from both sides OF
the water that "Great Britain and the
United States combined could whip tho
world and always as who would say,
"And they would do II too"
In other words, some OF those who have
spoken so enthusiastically about alliances
have seemed to us TO have In mind only
the idea OF war. and that the object
OF this alliance would be not TO promote
peace but to stir up strife and to make
conquests.
Too much power is a dangerous thing.
and II these two powerful nations would
combine the knowledge OF their power
would In all probability tempt them to
provoke quarrels with other nations.
There Is a friendly understanding between
Great Rritian and thu United States. ~

GOOD FOR THE HOBSONs,

We mentioned IN yesterdays paper
that q subscription had been started in
Alabama to pay off a mortgage on the
home of Lieutenant IIobson. the hero OF
Santiago. in recognition Of his gallant
services. Since that time we note with
pleasure that friends Of the family give
notice that such subscription are not de-
sired and will not be received.
Good for that! We were much dis
tressed when we saw that the subrcrip-
ton Ia dbeen started. It Is not the
way Of Southern heroes TO hand around
the hat. and we would hate to see the
innovation. The Alabama movement
was conceived I'm all kindness, but it was
a mistaken kindness. It would be pity
TO make a beggar Of such a hero. NO,
II would be a dissertation. Never mind
about the mortgage, it will be provided
for without putting the hero OF Santiago
in the attitude Of asking an aims.
