Gladstone at huron.

A writer in the London Church Ga.
zette tells this story about Mr.. Glad
stone: Il happened to be in a church
one Sunday morning when Mr.. Glad
stone came in; it was Il church he at
tended very rarely. so he was quite I'M
expected. He had much difficulty in
finding a seat, for it was a free and
open church and apt to crowd I'D
dreadfully. a curate deacon, whom we
all loved, but whose forte was not
preaching, happened to be in the pull
pit, and caught sight of the Prime
Minister as he hurried in and looked
around for chair. 1t was almost his
first sermon. and, nervous before. this
quite upset him. This Mr.. Gladstone
quickly perceived. and. picking up his
hat and umbrella, he scurried to the
top of the church. and, finding a seat
among the children. sat through the
whole of a long sermon with his hand
to his ear, paying the most marked at
tention to every word. This gave the
curate-1 am sorry to say he is since
dead-more courage. but after the
service Mr.. Gladstone took an opportu.
nifty Of thanking him."

Bees in Warfare.

Two instances are recorded in which
bees have been used as weapons of de.
Tense in war. When the Roman Gen.
efal Lucullus was warning against
Mithridates, and sent force against
the city of Themiscyra. the besieged
threw down on the invaders myriads
of swarmS of bees. These at once be-
gan an attack which resulted in the
raising of the siege. The insects were
also once used with equal success in
England. Chester was bcsieged by
Danes and Norwegian, but its Saxon
defenders threw down on them the bee
hives of the town and the siege was
soon raised.

Law and Lynchine.

The lynching OF the five Sicilians at
q small town near New Orleans recalls a
similar incident at that city ten years
ago. The victims Of the former out
break were natives of the same country
as those lynched on Friday. They were
uurderers and members Of an oath
bound assassination society, the MautiR.
They, like the lynched Sicllians OF last
week, we're able to cheat the vengeance
OF the law through the laws own tech
nicsiities, taking advantage OF provis-
ions meant to shield the innocent. At
last the people, wearled OF the laws
weakness, took into their own hands the
punishment Of the crime. For the same
reason, the Tallul8 mob hanged It's five
men.
The root OF the trouble was the weak
ness Of the judicial arm OF the state
When men can boast, as those men did
at Tallula. that their money would save
them from punishment for their wrong
doings, the better class can hardly be
blamed for administering wild justice
for that is their own means OF safety
The remedy for such lynchIngs is not il
denunciatory resolutions or new pena
statutes, but in better enforcement o.
the law. IL the law can preserve peac'
and security, the people will readil,
allow il to do 30.

energy, industry and example have been
potent influences in sustaining the in
terest in literary matters and encourag-

As an evidence of their appreciation
of her efficient work, other members of
the club decided TO tender her surprise
and present her with substantial tokens
Of their esteem. The members of the

Dewey for Mckinley.

Those Democrats who have been urg-
ing Admiral Dewey as a candidate fer
president must have been grieved be-
yond measure at these words of the
admiral: 81 really do hope Mr.. McKin-
ley will be our next president.
That ought to settle all doubts as 10
Dswey's politics. While the Democrats
have been claiming him for one OF their
own and citing the political opinions OF
his relatives as indications OF his beliefs
Dewey has been all the time sincere
adherent OF President Mckinley, and
therefore, by natural inference, good
Republican. A mans politics is deter
mined primarily by his choice for presi'
dent aud Dewey has voluntarily ad-
mittsd his preference for the next Re,
publican nominee.
In that hope every good citizen may
Join. The Scriptures say: "By their
fruits ye shall know them," and that is
a pretty good rule to follow in judging
the present administration. Prosperity
unexampled at home, the prestige
abroad Of successful war, an increas
ing demand for American goods all over
the world, and q universal feeling OF
sstifaction are sufficient proofs that the
best thing for this country would be a
continuance Of the present administra-
ton.

Tins ultra Demncrqtic paper says: The
Condemnation of the legislature will
stand in the minds of people. The
miserable Juggling by winch the lDbby's
tools attempt to confuse tue public
mind and dodge Responsibilities for u e
protection of privileged wealth from
taxation merely increases the public
ders the Legislative rascais cOnteWptIble.
The record OF the legislature IL clearly
written in two corrupt acts M favor Of
plutocracy and monopoly taxation. The
lobby has waE the first skIrmIsh by foul
tactics, but the campaIn has Just opened.
The people realize now what franchise
values are. They know that they arise
from monopoly privileges granted 10 cor

They know that the p-0pis themselves
create the franchise values. and they r-

the corrupt legislature must and will be
undone. The men who are responsible
for it's betrayal OF the people must and
will be repudiated."

There will be no such disturbance as oc-
