SCATTERING SILVER FORCES.
The Cheap Money standard IL Being
Deserted by Political
Heavy weights.

The announcement by ex-senator
PETER that he has returned to the re-
publican fold need cause no great sur
prise. lie states the case with frank
ness. Originally a republican, he left
the party ut time when Kansas and
other western states as the result OF
crop failures were struggling with very
lean years. The people were much dis
heartened, and in their distress many
of them ascribed their troubles to the
financial policy of the republican party.
But with the revival of good times,
with business thriving and the farmers
PETER sees the error of his hasty con-
illusions and resumes his old political
relations.
The next twelvemonth will probably
reveal throughout the west many men
like Mr.. PETER. The populist party in
tina section as originally formed was
recruited almost entirely from the re-
pubicans. The hard times explained
the organization there. Such planks in
the platform as the initiative and refer
endum, government ownership and con-
VI uhN
government loans on crops and live
stock, were largely fancy touches, de-
signed to finish off and attract atten-
tion TO the propaganda for larger vol
ume of money. But more money
enough Of il at least TO ease up the
whole situation-has come by the old
agencies; and many of these men, with
the wrinkles in their stomachs filed
out and their wallets again in shape,
are willing to postpone n general re-
forming of the government to later
day.
But what will Bryan do? The Me-
braska leader cannot afford to recog-
nize or yield to the good times. They
have arrived not only without his con-
sent, but against his predictions. He
cannot abandon free silver. He cannot
afford to confess himself i'm error about
silver. Other refuge has he none. He
sees this. He is as frank on his side
as Mr.. PETER is on his. He will consent
TO additions to the Chicago platform,
but not to the dropping of n single is
sue il proclaims. BY adhering to 1t he
will lose many votes, particularly in
the west, but were he to abandon il he
would lose his only claim to rcnomina-

A POLICY THAT PROTECTS.
Southern Industries Encouraged and
Increased by the Dingiey
Tariff.

The protective policy continues to be
justified by its fruits. Secretary Will
son, of the department of agriculture,
has just returned from a trip to Louisi-
ana and Texas. Those southern states
have found that they need the protect
i've policy of the republican party. The
secretary says of the sugar industry:
Every extensive improvements have late
ly been made In the sugar factories In an
ticipation OF alfe-and-death struggle with
sugar countries where labor is cheaper and
conditions quite as favorable. The en-
enlargement given by the Dlngley tarifr
will have n tendency TO increase the area
OF production and attract capital to the en-
terrrise. The people are much more con-
cerned over the future policy OF congress
respecting their industry than they are
over the heavy loss on the coming crop by
low temperatures. They are pleased to
note the great Increase of sugar produce
ton from beets In the northern states.
judging that they will not be alone In the
future when public policies are framed re-
garding the Importation of their product.
The large amount of money being paid to
foreign countries for saccharine matter
gives abundant opportunity for enterprise
in the production of sugar within the
United States, and every effort will now be
made by the producers OF sugar to earn
thdt IlOHtys
In regard to the political situation,
the secretary said:
''The people accommodate themselves to
circumstances politically. The republic
ans say: we want protection Others.
who do not like to use the word 'protec-
tion, say: The government needs rev.
enue.' But, however 1t is put the present
policies OF the government are very pop
ular."
The secretary expressed the opinion
that the encouragement given by the
Dingley tariff has had marked effect
on the rice producers around the gulf.
and that extensive arrangements are
generally being made to produce all the
rice consumed in the United States,
which he thinks will soon be brought
about.
The republican party is the party of
prosperity, and the more prosperous
the people are the better they like the
policies of that party.-Troy Times.

An Incognito.

M + who live in the High Row awoke
Wv one morning to find that the bills
had been taken out of the windows of
No. 10 in the row. The house whose flu
ture tenancy had for some time been the
subject of our hopes and fears, was let
at last, and our fate. in the matter of
new neighbors, decided for good or i'll.
The Row was an old-fashioned cor
ner, lying at the back of large sea-
side town, out of the reach of the yearly
influx of noise and trippers. We took
no little credit to ourselves for our
isolation, and would have blushed to
have been at any time discovered among
the crowd parading the sea front. Per-
haps, indeed. it was the desire to ignore
the aspect of the town as pleasure re-
sort that formed the basis of sympathy
on which our little society was founded.
OF this society it was old Mrs. Delane,
at No. ), who was called on by at least
two county families, and who took
daily airings in a carriage with yellow
wheels, whom we looked up to as our
head. and to whom were referred all
questions of fashion and social ethics.
We certainly were, take us all in all,
Il highly respectable corner, and might
be forgiven in the absence ofJworthy
objects of comparison in installing our
selves for the salt of the earth. Nor is
il to be wondered at that we were filed
with alarm whenever there was pros
pect of house changing hands, al
though hitherto the character of the
Row had not suffered from any such
change. The dingy old corner made
little appeal to the average house hunt
er. A susceptibility to the charm un-
DERIVING the dinginess, enough to make
il appear desirable place of residence.
had in most instances proved symptom
attic, and in the general run of new
corners we had found new friends. Yet
we knew that the luck must one day
turn, and the present occasion filed
more than one of us with vague fore
boding.
No. 10 had been "To let, furnished"
so we could not hope for an introduce
ton to the newcomers through the Gus
tomary vanguard of household goods.
There was nothing for it but to possess
our souls in patience, and to keep a
lookout for their arrival in the flesh
We were taking tea at Mrs. Delane's,
and discussing somewhat dolefully the
probabilities of the new tenancy, when
the sound of a vehicle driving into the
Row sent us all to the window with a
rush. Yes. there they were! A fly,
bearing a small quantity of luggage,
drew up before the door of No. 10. A
young man in tourist suit jumped out,
and was followed up the steps by girl
dressed rather TOO deliberately to be in
accordance with High Row notions of
genteel elegance. The man gave
pull at the bell, aud no response i'm
mediately forthcoming, he and his COM
panion each lifted the handle of the
double knocker and reused the echoes

Ann Arbor, Mich, May 3l.-Student
life at the University of Michigan is
far from being irreligious. To be sure,
there is no theological school at Ann
Arbor nor compulsory chapel exercises
in the university, but there are num-
Der of organizations with the avowed
purpose of helping the students TO
build up noble Christian characters.
The Christian Association.
Directly across the street from Uni
versity hall is Ncwberry hall, the home
of the Students Christian association.
The purpose of this association is ito
lead men to an earnest study of the
Scriptures, to a remuneration of sin, to
knowledge of Jesus Christ as their
Divine Lord and Saviour, to the ac-
ceptance of His words and the Holy
Spirit as the guide ofllife, and to the
cultivation of Christian fellowship
The organization is undenominational.
Its membership includes members of
the university faculties, their wives and
students in the university, and the uni
vcrsity school of music. The members
are divided into four classes: Active,
associate, sustaining and contributing

FOLLOWING A PRECEDENT.
The Clever Way In which Tavern
Keeper Got Even with an Of
fensive Judge.

We can hardly blame, perhaps, the
satisfaction which a nonsuited litigant
in certain court once gained from an
opportunity that chance gave him. A
Judge, travelling on circuit, had before
him in a small country town case in
which tavern keeper was held for the
payment on land transaction of a
large amount of money which he had
not agreed definitely to pay. The court
declared that, although his agreement
was not on record, it was involved by
construction, or implied, in his particle
patton in business proceeding con-
nected with il.
After judgment had been rendered
the court adjourned for dinner, and the
judge found that the only eating house
in the place was kept by the defendant
in the case which he had just decided.
He also found that the defendant per-
sonally superintendent the preparation
of the meals, and the food was charged
for on the European plan"
The judge called for two, boiled eggs,
which, with the other food he ordered,
were brought to him done to turn
He ate them, and at the end of the meal
the bill was presented to him. He was
astonished to read on il the following
items: "Two boiled eggs, Is cents; two
chickens, at rs cents, $780,"
He called the proprietor and said:
"How is this? have had no chickens;
why do you charge me for them?"
"Those are constructive chickens,
your honor" answered the host.
"What?"
"Why, they are implied in the eggs,
you know, your honor" the man per-
sisted.
The judge began to understand. and
said no more. However, when he hand
ed in a five-dollar bill to bay for the
dinner he found that the innkeeper had
given him his full change, without
charging for the constructive" chick

THE SEED.

"Only a little seed" we say
tiny thing
Floating along its airy way
On silken wing.
And yet that little tufted ball
So frail to see
Hides safely from the sight of all
A mystery
A mystery OF life and bloom
Is there concealed
An unborn beauty and perfume
To be revealed.
Within that germ so small and brown
Are joys of May,
When melody. like rain, drlps down
Ger each glad day.
A hundred beauties yet unborn
Are in its sheath
That wait to charm the skies of morn
With perfumed breath.
Within a seed that airily
Floats to and fro
Perhaps may be a giant tree
In embryo.
Urged onward by the restless wind
That little seed
A resting place at last shall find
In wood or mead.
Some day. ah. what mystery
Shall greet the sight
A tall and graceful forest tree
Proud in its might.
Can II be that so small thing
So much could yield?-
Only a seed that spread its wing
Ger hill or field. &
The humblest things in natures land
Outlines contain r..
What seers have tried to understand,
But all In vain.
TIL. fiorets of one meadow flower
The power may hold
To low a field In idle hour
With summers gold.
A sw eet wild rosebud by the stream
Some meaning wears
AS great, perhaps, as brightly CLEAN
From starry spheres.
Upon those worlds we look with awe,
And fail to heed
As great power as stellar law
Lies in a seed.
In nature. things both high and low.
The oak or reed,
Must in a meek obeisance bow
Unto the seed
o wondrous mystery the cause
To human mind
Producing by unchanging laws
Its own In kind
Plant roses and to stems will cling
A crimson glow:
Plant lilies and to life will spring
A CLEAN like snow.
Natures most potent agency
A secret deep
Is latent life that waits to be
Aroused from sleep
That waits the kindly touch OF sun
And drip of rain.
And 10! the miracle begun
Speaks not in vain.
In nature. things both high and low
The oak or reed
Must in a meek obeisance bow
Unto the seed.

Women Not Eligible.

The university Y. NJ. c. A. is not so
very unlike the Students Christian as
ISOLATION, except that women are not
eligible to the former and are to the
latter. The headquarters of the Y.
M. c. A. is in Sackett hall. Here there
are parlors, reading room and prayer
meeting room. Religious meetings are
held every Sunday afternoon at three
o'clock and Thursday evening at seven
o'clock. Besides these there are Bible
classes and special meetings. The uni
versity Y. M. c. A. works in cooperation
with the state Y. M. c. A., much valua-
BILE encouragement coming from the
latter. The present year the university
Y. M. C. A. has a membership of go,
and there are 60 men in its Bible classes.
Work in Harmony.
Working in perfect harmony with all
the other organizations, and yet having
a field peculiarly its own, is thu Stu
dents Volunteer band. This is an in
ner circle of Christian men and women,
who have consecrated themselves to
tie work of the Master. Most of the
members of the band expect to go out
sooner or later as missionaries. The
band has a membership the present
year of about 30. Weekly meetings are
held for mutual aid.

parlors, library, reading room, prayer
meeting rooms, kitchen, secretary's Of

Friend of the student.
The association aims to did and pro-
mote Christian living by becoming the
friend of the student, and thus interest
ing him in it's work. At the beginning
of each college year canvass of the
student body is made, and all those
students who are not members of the
association are extended cordial in
vitation to join. The religious meet
ings of the association are devotional
service each Sunday morning at 0:15
o'clock, prayer, song and testimonial
services in each of the hospitals Sun
day afternoon, freshman prayer
meeting for half hour Monday even
ing during the early part of the col
lege year, and general prayer meet
ing every Wednesday evening.

The present year the student enroll
ment of the association is $50, the num-
Der of sustaining members, who pay

of the trustees are members Of the

A jury in Marquette gave seven-year-
old Mary Ryan judgment for over So
900 for injuries to her spine received
while playing around power wheel

J. NJ. Longyear, president, and Z. II.
