The Kelley Motor Fraud.

The man is dead and his fraud is COM
pletely exposed. What used to be
charged by some while he lived, has now
been declared true on Overwhelming evil
dence by those who were his friends un-
til his death, and believed in him until
they themselves found the evidence that
there was no truth IL his story, but ii
was an unmingled fulsehood.
1t is very hard Tor most people to be-
lieve that man can live life that is one
constant, deliberate, every day and all
the-time lie, that he car have the check
| or the mental pose to do 1t. This man
did. 1t should now be accepted That some
persons can. The fact is that some hui
man beings are so born that 1t is their
nature to lie. and they have to take DELHI
crate pains to tell the truth. For near or
quite quarter of century Mr.. Kelley
sucked his living, like blo0dsucker, out
of those whom he cOZened by his wlles,
every word he SAID about the matter in
hand being conscious falsehood; and it
seems evident from what is told OF him
that he thoroughly enjoyed himself in
the work of fooling and defraudng them.
lie had genius for that life and rejoiced
! in exercising his gifts
But 1t Will be said, how could he blind
the experts? This Is how. He had win
someness. Winsomeness is IL soul quality
which has nothing to do with trut hful-
ness, or purity, or honesty, or any other
trait; and its effect is to intoXicate the
soul like honied wine, and move those who
| feel its power to wish to do what the one
endowed with it wishes. Some call the
exercise OF it, at least in an extreme de-
gree, hypnotism. 1t matters not for the
name, the reality saturates the souls af
fected by it, and leads them in u sort of
morphine dream by its power. Mr..
Kelley had this power; and when he was
getting off his rigmaroles OF high flown,
highfalutin words, he was getting in his
hoodooing power, hocuspoeusing his
dupes with high-sounding language
which was as empty nonsense as any glib
berish in Mother Goose's melodies.
Two other cases of the same power of
effecting falsehood have been experienced
in this country. One was the Cardiff
giant swindle, the complete fraud of
which was finally traced out from the
place where the stone was quarritd
through every stage and step to the holes
in which it was buried, and dug, vii h
the names of the persons who were
leaders in the fraud. The other case
that of Joseph Smith, the Mormon proph
ct and his book of Mormon, which bids
fair to make the American people en
amount of trouble which may well appsl
he stoutest heart.-Rockldnd (Mass.

Christian Science.

There is war and split already in this
new church. Col. Sabin, publisher of the
Washington News-L Letter, has taken leave
of the original church organization and
started reform branch at Washington.
A character has been taken out for the
new church. The reforms" motto is
"Unchain the truth; it shall be free "
The charge made by the reformers is that
the Boston end of the Science" is trust
which is fleeing the Christian Scientists
by outrageous charges for everything
Mrs. Eddy's book, which is a sort of
Koran of the new sect, is copyrighted and
sold by the Trust for $40, when so cents
would be fair price; and the instruction
fee is $loo, when $40 would be ample pay
for the time and labor required in school
ing the new disciple. Mrs. Eddy has
grown very rich and the Trust is reaping
golden harvest. The result is that
Maumon is being worshipped rather than
Christ by the original branch, hence the
rebellion and new reform chuch to
unchain the TRUTH

In editorial comment by the Philad

In editorial comment by the Philadel-
phia Record on the recent Cooper Union
Democratic meeting that paper says:
Jefferson insisted that the world was
governed too much. Altgeld insists that
it is governed too little"
1t is evident the editor misconstrues
both. Jefferson never said or meant that
the people governed too much. And Alt.
geld never said the world was governed
too little, but that the people ought to
take the natural monopolies into their
own hands by making government prop
erty of them, in place of giving them into
the ownership and control of private
monopolies- 1t is everything in giving
leading mems words an honest construc-
ton to fair understanding of them.

disgrace to France of his fake trials will
remain stain on the nation, which the
world will not pardon or condone. The
effort to make scape- goat of an innocent

light. The Algerisin in the United States

All trust goods are selling lower in
England than in this country. Even
Chicago beef is reported to be lower in
London than in New York. The tariff
enables many of the trusts to do this, but
it is the completeness of the beef trust
and possibly railroad favoritism which
give the beef trust its great power, and
also the Standard Oil trust was built up
mainly by railroad favoritism.

THE QUAINT JAPANESE.
PecuIiarisfes In Their Methods of

Beauty, from . Japanese standpoint,
consists in a long, oval face, regular
features, almond shaped eyes. sloping
slightly upward, Il high, narrow fore
head and abundance of smooth, black
hair. Their movements are graceful,
although the style Of their dress pre-
vents them walking with ease; their
feet and hands are delicately formed
and their manners unquestionably
charming
They take little or no exercise, and
one wonders sometimes how the little
ladies employ their time-there seems
SO little to be done In d japanese
house. To begin with, there are no
regular meals The shops near at
hand supply daily numberless little
dishes, which seem to be eaten at all
hours Of the day and night-a few
pecks at time--with those impossi-
BILE little chopstieks. Very little is
kept in the Harder except some slices of

and sweet biscuits

Is never used. so there is no necessity
