Silver And Democracy-

The New York Sun concludes a re-.
view Of the Democratic outlook for
1900 with the observation THAT the
Democrats faithful to the CHICAGO
platform are now completely in
control OF the party organization than
they were in 1896. Since then thew
have become predominant in the Dem
ocratic party in Wisconsin, Minnesota
and South Dakota, three States which
voted against them in 1896"
Moreover" adds the Sun the
New England States, which presented
a pretty solid front against the Chica-
60 platform In the convention Of 1906
are now in nearly every case under
the control Of the friends of BRYAN.
More especially is this true O fMass-
achusetts, Maine and New Hanlp.
shire, which cast at the Chicago cou-
vention forty-fve votes against the
platform and only FIVE for it. Mean
time the opponents of the Chicago
platform in the Democratic party are
gaining nowhere, and the most thev
venture to strive for at party conven
lions is almost invariably nothing
beyond mere evasion Of the currency
issue. 1t is not probable that they
will be able to muster at the national
convention next year more than half
OF the voting strength they exhibited
at Chicago in 1896, and even as manv
as $50 delegates would be a very
liberal estimate"
The Sun is right. There is but one
Democratic party in this country and
1t stands for the free and unlimited
coinage of both gold and silver at the
Iat1o at 10 to I, There is but one Re
publican party, and it is irrevocablv

IL she went to Jamaica, where she was
assistant editor Of the News Letter
published in Kingston. Under the
pseudonyms of "Busybody'' and Man

attention in Jamaica. She became q
great favorite with the Governor and
his wife, Sir Henry and Lady Blake.
For while after leaving Jamaica
Miss Watanna lived with her fathers

Rats for Snakes.

Snakes have the sense of smell. 1t is
difficult to obtain food for rattlesnakes
and water vipers. The owner of a
small private collection has been trying
them on the house rats and mice he has
caught about the buildings. He would
leave these in the snake cages over
night and through the day.
They would run over the snakes with
impunity The snakes would pay no
attention to them, but when he hap
pened to secure some field mice and
put them in the cage the snakes ate
them at once. He then put in several
rats and mice of the ordinary house. va
riety that he had caught out Of DOORS,
and these were seized by the snakes
almost as readily as the wild species.
He then conceived the idea of making
an earth box to keep the rats i'm for n
while before feeding. and soon found
that il they were put in there for
twelve hours or so before they were
given TO the snakes they would be eat
en-. The only apparent explanation is
that the smell of the earth is desra Bile
by the snakes. and that the smell which
the animals acquire about buildings is
Objectionable.

also. When he was young man ana
new In Kansas, he was billed to make

upon him, and warned him not to speak.
They had pistols in their belts, and
rope in their hands, and they swore
they would hang him IL he said any
thing against them. ingalls, looked
them In the eye and told them to hang.
He said that he was billed for speech,
and he was going to make 1t. He did
make 1t, and that in no measured
terms.
At another time ingalls, was sitting
one day, eating his dinner at hotel In
Atchison. 1t was the days Of early
Kansas, when everyone carried revol-
vers. A drunken ruffian entered the
room. He saw ingalls,, and, pointing a
revolver at him, said:
"See here, my boy, they say you are
the best speaker in all Kansas. These
gentlemen here are my friends, and we
want a speech. Now, you get up on
that chair and give us a speech, or I'll
shoot sheol out of you."
The future Senator looked the man
straight in the eye, and coolly replied
that he did not intend to make a speech
for any drunkard. He continued to
look as the man fiourished the pistol
and jumped up and down, threatening
to kill him. He may have been pale,
and his heart must have jumped to his
throat, but he did not move. Finally.
the man happened to hit the pistol
against his boot as he jumped up and
down in his rage. 1t went off, and the
ball struck his leg, filling the boot with
blood. This sobered him somewhat,
and he left the dining-room. ingalls,
then went upstairs, brought down his
pistol, and laying it beside his plate,
went on with his eating. The drunken
| man was killed that afternoon in an
affray which he had on the street.

vioiets Chemically Perfumed.

AS violets are much in evidence along

correspondent, the following incident
may be of interest. / was in chem

with large basket Of violets and set it
on the floor. bought a bunch and
then noticed the chemists assistant
pass small glass phial to the girl, the
contents Of which She emptied into the
basket. "Tricks Of trade" said the
chemist, with smile, while the mer-
chant gave him look Of sly humor
from under her hat What was that
she bought?" asked. "A penn'orth Of
wood violet" he replied. ''Those French
violets don't smell. They rest on moist
moss in the basket, and the moist moss
absorbs the perfume. That penn'orth
will sell the basket" Then he told me
that ''penn'orth' of musk perfume
was used to improve the selling quality
Of pots Of musk, and that he had had a
hawker similarly ask: "A penn'orth
Of white rose, Guv'nor." As l went
