VANITY OF GREATNESS.

use trying to be anybody in this world"
<Oh, come, brace up" Hamblin urged.
Whats gone wrong? You ought to be
ashamed to let yourself be cast down, after
the streak Of good luck YOU had. Here
you are on the sunny side of 80, and a firm
doing business of 100000 a year has
made you its chief buyer, with salary that
would keep three or four good-sized families
IN luxury. You've had trip to Europe at

Nearly Killed.

The family of Adjutant General Geo.
c. Lambert came near being suffocated
by coal gas in their Minneapolis home.
When the maid awoke early in the
morning she found the house filled
with gas. She tried to notify the fam
lily, but it was some time before any of
them could be aroused. Finally, Mr..
Lambert made his way to window
and opened it. He then went down in
the cellar and turned off the furnace
pipes. Had the gas not been discov-
cred when it was, the family would
have been asphyxiated soon. Investi-
cation showed that some plaster had
fallen from the inside of the chimney
and clogged it up.

A Socialistic Colony.

"A socialistic colony will probably be
started during the coming summer by
the Niksur Cooperative association.
The secretary of the association is now
out looking over a number of sites
which have been offered. The most
favorably considered site offered is one
near Perham, MINI.
The association desires to contract
for 1000 acres of land which it will pay
for as fast as it is needed, taking only
40 acres the first year. A couple of So
cialistic tailors will be the first colo
nists and they will set up a manufac-
turing plant for the beneft of the COM
munity. Later on the community will
be modelled after the communities of
Rusl1in, Tenn, and Equality, Wash.
The departments which have been es-
tablished by the association thus far
are tailoring and printing.

An Accommodating Man.

John August Brown is one Of the
kindliest men who ever lived. He went
to the Office of the clerk Of courts at
Minneapolis and wanted to purchase a
marriage license. It was not for him
self, but he was willing to pay for it,
and make the necessary affidavit.
The license in question was for
Stephen -Heegle, a widower. Brown
had not seen the mans wife die, but
he knew he was a widower. Heegle is
willing to be married, and Brown
wanted to facilitate the match. Brown
explained that Sophia Brown was the
name of the woman in the. case, and
Heegle had fallen in love with her and
she with him, while. she was Browns
wife. s"'
Brown did not go and get gun and
start on an expedition of extermina-
ton. He had another plan to get even.
he allowed a divorce to be procured,
and for fear the couple might forget to
carry out the whole plan, he secured
the license himself. z"'> E'%se r-> "..'-;"

THREE U. S. ADMlRAlS.

1t is Admiral Dewey now. The presi-
dent promptly named him. One dip of
the pen sufficed for the approval of the
bill reviving the grade and the promo
ton of the hero to fill the position.
The navy is clean. 1t has record for
fighting. 1t contains but one politician
Sampson. 1t has been kept out of
politics, while the army has been made
a receptacle for refuse politicians and
a stepping stone of the more ambitious
and adventurous. There are many real
soldiers in the army, officers of whom
the nation are truly proud, but what
chance have they to compete with the
favorites of a corrupt department, with
its Aigers. its Eagans, and its Corbins
playing for political preferment?
Before Dewey but two officers of the
United States navy ever wore the four
stars of an admiral. Before the civil
war; the highest rank in our navy was
that of commodore.
Admiral Dewey's predecessors We're
appointed under the following condi-
tons: On July II, 1862, vote of thanks
was adopted by congress to Captain
David GLASGOW Farragut and the Off
GERS and men of his fleet for their sue
cessful operations on the lower Missis-
sippi, and for the gallantry they dis
played in the capture of Forts jackson
and st. Philip and the city of New Or
leans, and the destruction of the enc
my's gunboats and armed fiotilla. Five
days afterward congress passed a bill
creating the grade of rear admiral in
the navy, and on the same day Captain
Farragut was nominated by the presi-
dent and confirmed by the senate as the
first officer to bear that rank. Then, on
Dec q, 1854, after Farragut's victory
in Mobile bay. congress established the
rank of vice admiral, and Farragut was
confirmed in that grade, it being limit
ed to one officer. On July %, 1866, con-
gress, to give Farragut further recog-
milton, and to give reward to David d.
Porter for his distinguished services,
established the grade of admiral, and
Farragut was on the same day pro-
NOTED TO that grade and Porter was
made vice admiral. On July IA, 1870.
Admiral Farragut died and Porter was
promoted to the vacancy. Rear Ad-
miral Stephen c. Rowan. to whom had
been voted the thanks of congress for
conspicuous gallantry, was promoted
to be vice admiral Aug. 10, 1870. Soon
after this, on Jan. "a. 1873, congress re-
pealed the law establishing the grades
of admiral and vice admiral, and when
Porter died. on Feb. Is, 1891, and Rowan
died, on March 81, 1890, the grades
ceased to exist.

eighteen miles away.
There never was clearer case of a
deliberate attempt on the part of petty
politicians to take the credit of hard
fought victory from hero who did
and dared for his country. than is
cropping out in this naval controversy.
The suppression of the Cienfuegos
telegram is only link in the chain,
but it shows that~Sampson was not
above stabbing brother officer in the
back, and that, in doing so, he counted
knowingly upon the approval and con-
nivance of the department and the
administration.
Sampson is deserving man in many
ways; he has worked himself up from
the foot of the ladder, but he has fallen
into evil ways by joining the politi-
clans. His ambitions have grown too
rapidly for their legitimate opportu-
mites.
Schley's vindication is not only com
plete, but the Indignation of the Amer
lean people is thoroughly aroused
against the attemat of the administra-
ton to injure him in order to make an
artificial reputation for favorite.

NO POLITICS IN THE SCHOOLS

Advocates Of the scheme to throw the
city school elections over to the same
date as general political elections may
find something to study in the recent
action of San Francisco's new charter
The coast city had been operating I'M
der system that made the control of
the schools a matter of political con-
troversy and spoils. The elections were
conducted on the same basis as the
general elections, and with the same
obnoxious results.
philosophical citizens became so
disguised with the inevitable and con-
tinued debauchery of the school man
agement by the politicians that the
new charter was drafted purposely to
remove the schools from politics.
When the new charter takes effect it
will provide for a school board of four
members, not more than two of whom
may belong to the same political party.
The members are appointive. and the
whole plan is intended to make school
management a business proceeding, as
far removed from spoils and spoils
methods as possible.
Wherever the schools are taken into
party management the educational in
terests of the community are made
subservient to party advantage.
There is no known exception to the
rule. and it will be bitter day for the
cities of this state when any change in
that direction is sanctioned by the
legislators.

of their viciousness that they
know nothing Of the matters they
have circulated, by anonymous letter

advantages of a collegiate education;
other than this we find nothing. You
have been indicated. have shown your

this trial with flying colors.
Few public men, when ground be-

now think Utah will do herself credit
by sending you to the senate. Very
