Givinr Arnv old CIothes.

There was a laugh all round yesterday
on a Nassau street millionaire whose
wifes fondest recreation is doing good to
the poor, says the New York Press. On
her bounty are many pensioners. Some
once were rich, but now are in poverty,
and to these she most assiduously devotes
herself Mr.. and Mrs. Olthyme were de-
lighted to receive u bundle containing a
suit of the bankers old clothes and one
of his wifes dresses. In the trouser pocket
was a hundred-dolar bin. 1t is the most
delicate compliment a poor and proud gen
ueman could receive" said Mr. Olthyme,
rubbing his hands over the bin. Not one
millionaire in 100 would have had the
courtesy to put il in this charming way.
Most Of them, in giving to former friends
who are reduced to Indulgence, have an I'M
couth, rough way that hurts the recipient
more than poverty. But Mr. --, God
bless him.
When the millionaire got home that night
he looked for something to wear TO the
roof garden. The new sack suit, of light
est material, was the very thing. Where
was il? His wife said she had given it TO
Mr. Olthyme, who was utterly naked
What NV new suit? Why my dear Mrs.
-, it cost me 800 only three days ago,
and isn't even paid for Did you look in
the pockets? I left some money there-I
am sure a one-hundTed-dolTa bill. And
your Mr.. Olthyme has got that, TOO! This
sort of business must stop l don't mind
Your charities, but. for heavens sake, Ma
RE. be more careful. Here you've given
that Old fool practically $200 a a crack and
left your husband without a thing TO wear
this hot night.

81 HAVE USED YOUR -


When person has become afflicted with
the mania for making collections, there is
no telling what queer freak that person
may be guilty of. Your inspired and true
collector likes 10 get out of the beaten
path occasionally. and aslonish his friends
with a collection of character that no
body else ever dreamed Of A young man
al the national capital has just made a
hit in this line. He has a large book in
which he has pasted an extensive collec-
ton of portraits and testimonials given to
manufacturers of proprietary articles by
great statesmen and their wives. Patent
medicines and soaps head the list in num-
bers of testimonials received, but the art-
cles run all the way from wine down to
hairpins, including tooth washes, hair in
vigorator, corn salve and grease eradica-
tor.
But patent medicines head the list. Gov
errors, senators and congressman write to
the manufacturers, Il have used your -,
and have derived great benefit from it,"
or words to that effect. Accompanying the
testimonial is a large portrait of the Of
fetal showing him in the bloom of physi-
cal vigor as a consequence of having taken
the medicine in question. A PECULIARLY
of these testimonials of statesmen, 1t has
been noted is that nine out of ten of the
writer's had "broken themselves down" in
the service of the public, a fact which
they were careful to place conspicuously
in the letter Thus while the patent med
icine men were getting the benefit of their
Endorsements, the statesmen were letting
their constituents know that they had
been working at a notwithstanding, nerve
destroying pace in the interests of the
dear people
1t cannot be doubted, by the way, that
this young mans unique collection con-
tains many things of interest, especially
to the ladies'. BY reference to it, for In
stance, 1t may be possible to learn the
personal taste of Mrs. Senator So-and-So
in the matter of soaps, what dentifrlce
Mrs. Gov. Blank prefers, or whether one
might reasonably expect to find root beer
served on Mrs. Congressman Dash's table
And at the same time 1t might be ascer-
tanned whether the Senator had ever suf-
fered from corns. warts, bunions and in
growing nails what II was the Governor
took for that tired feeling. and whether
or not the Congressman had saved himself
from premature badness with a patent
lotion. These are merely suggestions of
the possibilities OF the collection

THE SAGE OF aUITMAN,s ADVICE,

A very sensible answer was that which
Judge Turner of Quitman gave to the
newspaper men of Atlanta the other dav
when they asked him what he thought of
the prospect of the Democratic party for
winning the election next year. He said
that he thought it was good, provided the
Democrats would get together BY getting
together he said he meant putting in the
background the issues on which they are
divided and pushing TO the front the issues
on which they are united.
If the Democratic leaders viii take this
advice they will have an excellent pros
pect of elecung the next President. There
as no doubt that Mr.. Mckinley will be re-
nominated. There are indications that his
popularity is on the wane. He is regarded
as a man Of good intentions, but weak. He
wants TO do what he thinks the people
would like to have done. In trying to dis
cover the direction Of pubic sentiment he
becomes vacillatng.
That was the case in respect to the Phil
ippines. HIS judgment was against de-
manding them from Spain, and he made a
trip through the West to find out public
thought he found out that the people want
ed the Philippines, and so he instructed our
commissioners 10 insist upon having them.
There are indications that the Phillp-
pines are becoming heavy burden on the
administration. It is going to cost many
millions of dollars to conquer peace in the
islands and many millions more annually
to maintain peacel there The heavy taxes
already imposed and the other taxes which
win have to be imposed will tend to make
the President unpopular. Therefore if the
Democrats set together and nominate a
strong ticket, keeping the issues on which
they are in harmony at the front, the prob
abilities are that that will capture The
presidency.
Judge Turner has had very little TO say
about politics In recent years, but it is no.
tceable that when he does speak on that
subject his utterances have an abundance
of good sense In them.

zone of the funniest things ever saw in
the House." said Gov. McMillin of Ten
nessee the other day. according to the New
York Tribune, was a verbal set-to be-
tween Cox and Cannon. Cannon gesucu-
lates almost solely with his left index fin
ger, and the way he'll point il at an oppo-
nent in debate 10 emphasize a point is a.
caution. one day Cox said sonnet Thing Can
non didn't like, and Cannon said: Mr..
Speaker, / want 10 interrupt the gentle
man IN let you have the floor on one
condiuon-that you stop shak ng your fore
finger at me. I'm afraid il might go OFF,
AN right said Cannon. and with that he
stuck his left hand IN his trousers pocket
and began to speak. Just as Cannon got
warmed up he got excited at the sound Of
his own voice. and out came his left fore
finger, and instantly he was pointing IT
with deadly emphasis at Cox. Mr.. Speak
err said the latter, breaking into Cannon S
speech, the gentleman has broken his con-
tract, and I refuse to yield him the floor
any longer and then Cox went on in his
best vein, and gave Cannon a pretty lively
haying. The House burst into roars, and il
was good joke Tor a month."

Tiny Tokens.

From the Philadelphia Call.
The murmur Of a waterfall
A mile away
The rustic when a robin lights
Upon a spray,
The tapping of a lowland stream
on dipping boughs,
The sound of grazing from herd.
OF gentle cows,
The echo from a wooded hill
OF cuckoo's call,
The CULVER through the meadow grass
At evening fan.
To subtle are these harmonies
For pen and rule;
Such music is not understood
BY any school,
But when the brain is overweight
1t hath a spell
Beyond all human skill and power
To make it well.
The memory of a kindly word
For long gone by.
The frangrance of a fading flower
Sent lovingly,
The cleaning of a sudden smile
or sudden tear,
The warmer pressure of the hands,
The tone of cheer,
That hush that means II cannot speak
But 1 have heardW
The note that only bears a verse
From Gods own word
Such tiny things we hardly count
AS ministry;
The givers deeming they have shown
Scant sympathy;
But when the heart is overwrought.
Oh, who can tell
The power Of such tiny things
To make 81 welll

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Cincinnati Enquirer Dem) saws:
There is very little talk now of opposi-
ton 10 Mr.. Mckinley for the Republican
nomination. The plain tendency is to give
him denomination easily and even at The
great risk of losing the election. Perhaps
Mr.. Reed made a mistake in withdrawing
from the speakership race and getting out
of Congress, in the belief that he would be
in a better position out Of Congress to turn
the tide aeainst imperialism" and get the
nomination for President himself. So far
the people seem to have taken Mr.. Reed
al his word"
The Philadelphia Record Dem) says:
I'm the Spanish Senate the president of
the peace commission has declared that
Spain surrendered her sovereignty over
Cuba only that the island might be free
and mo pendent The same view prevail
ed in the Congress and government of the
United States when war was declared
against Spain; but it would not be sur
prsing if cuba should be annexed to this
country in spite Of both governments"
The Nashville American Dem) says:
1T seems that Adjt Gen. Corbin has been
the whole thing at the war department
ere now-in fact, for many years-and that
story is told of Gen. Phil Sheridan that
when Garfield was inaugurated Sheridan
was visi5ly relieved when he heard the
announcement Thank Cod he said. 4
was afraid they would inaugurate Cor
bin
The Louisville Courler-Journal (Dem9
says "Grotius. whose memory the peace
commissioners honored on the Fourth, was
the father Of International law. Those who
scoff al the idea that the world is growing
better should recall that Grotius acquiesced
in rapine and outrage as the right of
soldiers who were victorious in assault"
The Richmond Dispatch Dem) says:

liar methods at various points in the
North, and concidentally the Northern
prejudice against lynching is becoming less

Another Yankee Grew.

Once more the little island town of
Deer Isle, Me, gains the distinction of
furnishing good all-round Yankee
crew for the America S cup defender.
Before the Valkyrie- Defender races
of 1895 the sailors who manned the
American champion in these interna-
tional contests had been picked up any
where out OF the ordinary run of
merchant jacks in New York har-
Dor. Sometimes it happened that there
were few real Americans among them,
and that the predominant element was
Scandinavian-good men and true, but
lacking in an emergency, so it is
said, something of the quickness and
determination of sailors of our steel
nerved New England stock. Four years
ago the builders of the Defender resolved
to have crew as thoroughly American
as their yacht was. By advice of veteran
master mariners, they chose a group of
thirty or forty Deer Isle sailors, and after
the races it was the universal verdict that
this crew of Yankee seamen was the
finest which had ever sailed for the
Americas cup.
Deer Isle lies in the eastward part
of Penobscot Bay, on the route to Mt
Desert. 1t is separated from the main
land by the broad and beautiful sheet of
water known as Eggemoggin Reach.
Summer visitors by thousands who have
sailed along it's green, pine-clad shores
know Deer Isle as place of great roman
tic beauty, but it is known among sailor
men as the home of as hardy and
dauntless maritime population as is to
be found anywhere in the world. The
island can scarcely have more than a few
hundred inhabitants at the most, but the
fact that two hundred and thirty -one
Deer Isle seamen made application for
berths on this years defender suggests
something of the spirit which is bred on
that stern, wind-swept Maine shore line.
Of the two hundred and thirty one. only
forty could be taken boston Journal.
Deer Isle has about ). 900 inhabitants
