The omniscient Atkinson.

The cock-sure omniscience of Edward
Atkinson and his readiness, at a mo-
ment's notice, to pronounce judgment on
any subject under heaven, are musingly
brought out by the Boston Journal. I'VE
recall a story" it says, told by the late
Col William w. Clapp, for twenty-five
years the distinguished editor of the Jour
nal. He and Mr.. Atkinson had grown
up together from boyhood, and, though
they quarrelled furiously about almost
every public question, were always per-
sonal friends. Fifteen or twenty years
ago, when the subject of enslage as a
food for cattle was under discussion. Mr..
Atkinson called one day al Col. Clamps
room in the Journal office and said: VII
liam, what IS all this talk in the news
papers about ensilage? What is ensilage ?
Col. Clapp, who had made some expert
ments himself at his country place in CO.
hasset, explained briefly the process of
preservation, fermentation, etc Mr.. At
kinson expressed much interest and went
away remarking that he would look up
the subject. DO you know said Col
Clapp in telling the story, within ten
days I read of Atkmson-s addressing
farmers institutes on ensilage and its
uses and laying down laws of his own
about 1t for farmers to follow"

According to the Washington CORE
spondence of the New York Commercial
Advertiser (Rep) "the friends of the beef
packing interests in the West are endeav-
oring to induce Secretary Alger 10 demand
of the President that Gen. Miles shall be
removed from command of the army"
If the friends of the beef packing interests
of the West are wise, they will let well
enough alone. They have been sustained
by the report of the Wade commission. II
they insist upon nagging Miles, they may
get into trouble with Congress.

Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton is report
ed to have said with respect 90 Mrs.
George of Canton, o., going upon the
stage as an advocate of woman's rights.
that while she disapproved of Mrs. George
assuming any such role. still she thought
that 10 secure her rights woman may
have to take the law into her own hands.
She may have to use the pistol and the
shotgun If we are not mistaken, Mrs.
Stanton is among those who have denounc-
ed the position of Mrs FELTON, of this
state respecting the defense of women; at
the same time we do not recall any speech
by Mrs. FELTON, that was more radical than
this which is now accredited to Mrs.
Stanton. Had a man used the language
attributed to Mrs. Stanton, he would be
liable to arraignment by public opinion as
an unsafe and unwise leader. if nothing
worse.

So Father Says.
From the Boston Courier.

From the Boston Courier.
I wish that I'd been Grandpa's child
That l could had the Joy
OF fishing in those good old days
When father was a boy.
For then the fish grew bigger far
Than they do nowadays,
And literally packed the streams
At least, SO father says
They never caught a sucker then
That didn't weigh a ton,
And pickerel were longer than
A modern Armstrong gun.
They used to yank out halibut
In hundreds from our bays,
And shad ran up the banks to bite
At least, so father says.
They never thought of using bait
To lure the willy trout
They reached a bushel basket down
And simply dipped them out,
And in about an hour. or two
They'd fill up several drays
And sow them through the neighbor-
hood
At least, so father says.
In short, they caught so many fish.
That fore their sport was through
The stream where they were fishing
would
Go down a yard or two
And nos an angler failed to come
Home loaded in those days
A habit father still pursues,
AT least. so mother says.

The war in the Baptist Church which
has resulted an the resignation of Dr.
Whitsett from the presidency of the
Southern Baptist Seminary grew out of
an article by him published in an ency-
clopedia. This article contained the
statement that Roger Williams and the
Baptists baptized in England in 1924 were
sprinkled and not immersed. DR.. Whit
sett backed up his statement with the re-
suit of his investigations among the
pamphlets and records of the British Mu-
scum. Attention was called to the arti-
Gle, and a fierce war was made upon him
in the church, led by DIR. Elton, editor of
the Western Recorder and pastor of the
largest Baptist church in Louisville.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Ledger Qnd) says of
the Confederate reunion: The proceed
ings at the reunion are marked by interest
and devotion to the memories of men,
orable epoch, but of late years different
spirit has held sway in these gatherings.
The STARRY Cross floats in the breeze
of Charleston's streets, but it is en-
twined with the Star Spengled Banner.
Southern orators exalt the deeds of their
favorite sons, but the tinge of bitterness
has departed Time ana events have had
a softening and conciliating effect. The
war is ended, and the reconciliation is
complete. Gen. Fitzhugh Lee of Virginia,
who Is usually a prominent figure at
Confederate reunions, IS not in Charles

United States, in Cuba. Cen Joe Wheel

Ger. is in Charleston, and represents both
North and South The Raleigh is in the
offing, under the shadow of Sumtff's
guns and there is no 'enemy's country"
The Columbia Is. CO State is not pleas
ed with Gen. Wheeler's defense of ex-
pansion in his reunion speech. 1t says:
Gen. Joe Wheeler's expansion speech
was in bad taste for an occasion like
the Confederate reunion. We say this as
one who deprecated the proposal to IN
vite the leader on the other side, William
Jennings Bryan, to speak at the reunion.
These gatherings are sacred to the men,
cries of the Lost Cause and no issue of
present politics should be discussed at
them. Gen. Wheeler has won his glory
In the Spanish war and should rest on
his laurels. They will be furnished If he
makes himself spokesman for Mckinley
and apologist for a war of conquest. The
little general has an unfortunate tenden-
cy to "slop over and 1t Is time that he
put the lid on himself in this Philippine
business"
The Louisville Courier-Journal CDem.)
says: 1.-THE Sultan of Turkey a few days
ago notified the American authorities that
he would pay the long-pending claims
for the destruction of property owned by
American citizens in Armenia, and now
the Sultan of Morocco has paid similar
bill. 1t is true that the collection was
made with a warship, but the settle
ment was prompt and satisfactory. I'm
doubtedly the Turkish despot was also
favorably influenced toward the Ameri-
can claim by consideration of the fleets
at Manila and Santiago.
The New Orleans States Dem) makes
this plea for "shinplasters," in which 1t
says all that can be said in favor of them:
THE small bills are NOT only handy for
mailing. but they do not find the knot
In the floor or the nearest grating in the
pavement when they rail- and they look
much more respectable than nickles in
church plates, and beggars' hats. and

Some of the Cuban newspapers and po-
litical leaders are kicking because the
soldiers are to receive but So each upon

however, probably, is that TO a majority
of the Cuban soldiers $40 in cash will be
a princely sum; more than they ever be-
fore had at one time, and more than they
are likely to have again all at once. To
the majority of them S75 will do more good,

The Molineux-Adams-Co Cornish poisoning
case in New York seems likely to remain
a first-class mystery. Somebody sent
poison through The mails; a man admin
istered it innocently, thinking he was
giving a harmless headache remedy. and
a woman died in consequence, and that is
about all that is known of it. Who the
sender was may never be known. The DO
lice appear to be powerless to get at the
bottom of the matter. 1t would seem.
therefore, that the modern murderer bv
poison is quite as much of an artist in
crime as any of those old celebrities who
practiced poisoning as a fine art.
