An ObIfGing Hero,

A woman who visited one of the hospi-
tails in the South last summer has been
telling a story since she came back to
Washington which is good, if true, and
just as good, perhaps, if it isn't true, says
the Washington Post. While going
through the hospital in question, so she
narrates the incident, a busy-looking,
duty-loving woman hustled up to one of
the wounded soldiers, who lay gazing at
the ceiling above his cot.
Cant do something for you, my poor
fellow?" said the woman, imploringly.
The poor fellow looked up languidly.
The only things he really wanted just at
that time were his discharge and a box
of cigars. When he saw the strained and
anxious look on the good woman's face.
however, he felt sorry for her, and with
perfect sang froid, he replied:
'Why. yes; you can wash my face If
you want TO-"
I'D be only too glad to-. gasped the
visitor, eagerly.
'All right said the cavalier calamity.

times already to-day, but don't mind 60

A very lively fight between ex-Gov. Alt
geld and Mayor Harrison Of Chicago for
the control of the Illinois delegation TO
the Democratic national convention next
year is in prospect. They were candidates
for Mayor at the recent municipal cleo
ton in Chicago-Altgeld being an indie
pendent candidate and Harrison the reg
ular candidate of the Democratic party.
Altgeld, however. strange to say, had the
support of the Democratic national COM
mittee, and 1t was said that Mr.. Bryan
favored him, but It IS not certain that
he did. Anyway, Harrison is now out
spoken in his support Of Mr.. Bryan for
the presidential nomination. Under the
circums tances, it is difficult to see how
the Democratic national committee can
favor AItgeld in the contest for the con-
troll Of the state delegation to the Demo-
cratic national convention.
If the truth Were known it would ap-
pear probably that Altgeld is not Demo-
crat in the strict sense of the word He
holds views which the Democratic party
does not approve-views which lead in the
I'll ONtloiA VI SDClddhSl AAV was DNHN~--
out of sight in the Chicago mayoralty con-
test, and unless Harrison loses his grip
he will be as badly beaten in the fight for
delegates to the national convention. If
there were fewer men like Altgeld in the
Democratic party it would be better for
she party. If he had been permitted to
have his way when the railroad riots were
on in Chicago in 1891, the probability Is
that there would have been great labor
riots in many parts of the country and
that hundreds, and perhaps thousands,
of lives would have been sacrificed. Only
the prompt and determined action Of Pres
ident Cleveland prevented a very danger
Gus state of affairs. Outside of Chicago
it is doubtful if there is any desire to see
Altgeld in the convention.

awful consequences which would follow
the slightest deviation from the truth Mr.
Bailey took the most portentious tone
and solemn manner and demanded:

ONLY POLITICS.

The reports from the meetings at Allan
tic CITY of the currency reform committee
appointed by the caucus of the Republican
members of the House of the last Con-
gress 10 draft currency reform measure
indicate very clearly that there is no in
tenton to frame a bill that will likely
command the approval of Congress. The
committee is giving considerable attention
to the work it was appointed to do, but II
recognizes the fact that it is not composed
of financial experts, and that no one of its
members knows enough about financial
matters to frame measure that would
come any where near meeting the de-
mands Of the country.
What the committee will do is this: II
will draft some sort of a measure and
make a report to the caucus of the Repub-
llcans of the House, the leading feature OF
which win serve a. a plank for the plat
form TO be adopted by, the Republican ma
tional party in 1900. The Republican lead
ers are altogether too shrewd to undertake
to pass a currency reform measure on the
eve of a presidential election. The commit
tee al Atlantic City is only after material
for campaign purposes next year. That
being the case the public will not feel very
much interest in its proceedings or the
result of its deliberations.

CURRENT COMMENT.


The Charleston Post Dem) says. THE
Governor of Alabama reasons most Gu
riously. Because the people would elect a
number of gold Democrats to the constitu-
uonal convention, called by the Legisla-
ture a its last session, he calls special
session 10 repeal the act calling the con-
vention. He explains that ''unrepentant
deserters' have been nominated an large
numbers and for fear that these should be
chosen and that the convention might be
led by those who "basely betrayed the
party in 1896" the convention call should
be repealed. That is to say. the sllverites
who prate so about the win OF the people
prevailing are not willing that 1t should
prevail unless IT, prevail for silver"
The Washington Post Qud.) says: "Is 1t

1t appears from the very entertaining
Dewey story which Capt. Coghlan of the
Raleigh told at the Union League Club
the other night, that matters were, indeed,
very much strained between the American
and, German fleets in Manila bay for a
time. Patience had about ceased to be a
virtue. in the American admirars opinion,
and he sent word to the German admiral
that the petty anpoyauces must stop in

man flag as being worth half dollar a
yard was not made hippantly, or dispar-
agingly, but merely to illustrate the fact
that colored cloths are cheap, anybody
may buy them and anybody may hoist
them upon a pole. If a German flag gave
protection, by the sole virtue of being
such a flag. then a Spanish ship might
have holsted one and claimed immunity
from attack or seizure.s
