Everything was moving, the people
taking their cue from the incessant fut-

the sound of numberless whistles Shrek
Ing welcomes to the boys beyond the bar.
Their echoes floated down to the bay in
a harmonious theme, as If some master
was touching his heartstrings to sound
the depth of his feelings. Up above the
hills and the tall buildings could be seen
the puffings of steam from the monster
calliope whose discordant tootings were
softened by the distance
The launches called back shrill
answers. the tugs footed stoutly as If
saying, We're little, but oh N.Y.

emitted, the groupings they presented.

From the tugs the scene was superb.
If any such densely packed crowds of
people ever before gathered on the water
front of San Francisco there is neither
record nor recollection of them. The eye
of the most keen sighted sailor could not
reach the limit of the gatherings They
covered the wharf space and crowded the
streets leading to It. They were as thick
as shingles, on every pier shed. They
crowned the ridges of the far distant
hills and they were like ants on the sides

naval pageant could be seen was sighted

Suddenly the great tower of the ferry
depot was outlined in flaming lights.
The tremendous structure seemed to
rise a column of fire from the waters

wharf to wharf, and in the bay from

A BRACE OF ~PARADOXES.
Two Odd and Interesting Little
Problems for the Young roiNs
to Ponder Over.

Paradox No. If you started from
Chicago and walked due west, and il
were possible for you TO walk on I'M
interruptedIy in the same direction,
how far could you walk without ever
d~eviating from your due westerly
course, and where would YOU arrive
finally?
oh, that's easy" YOU eNclaim. i
would walk around the earth and ar
rive back in Chicago"
Very well. Let your answer stand
for the present, and take this: Two
geese are here in Chicago. Il stand
ing facing the east and the other
facing the west, and at the same 40
ment they start and fly directly rs
they faced, the one east and the other
west. How far DO these two geese
travel before they meet face TO facc2

in fact, to worry about. Half way
around the world, YOU sayH Well. you
are mistaken. The correct answer de-
perGs altogether uDGE the distance
which separated themiuC Chicago when
they started. For il does Ut follow
that the two geese, when i stands
facing the east and he other facing
the west. are back to back, They may
be face 10 face. DO you catch on?
Paradox No. 1.-TWO persons are
born at exactly the same moment in
the same own. Fifty years later both
died at the same instant in the same
town. yet. n OF them had lived 100
days more than the other.
Now, DO not ask Your friends to help
you solve this problem, as you did with
the preceding one. Buckle down to
it yourself. right now, without read
! ing any farther. No: there is no catch
in it; il is a plaint straightforward
proposition and though it is labeled
paradox" it may not be paradoxical
n the least when you read the ex-

two men made 80 trips around the

THE PRESIDENT UNDER FIRE.

Rarely if ever has President of the
citation that has greeted President Nc
Kinley on the floor of Congress not
only from the opposition side but from
his own party. 1t was shocking to the
American sense to have a President Of
the United States compared in charac
ter to Dickenss despicable hypocrite,
"Pecksniff" But it is fact that Mr..
McKinleys attitude toward the
Philippines and the Filipinos was re-
sponsible for the odious comparison
fir, n the lips of a member of the Pres
idents own party.
A similar instance in which the Pres
ident was criticised on precisely the
other day, in which Mr. Mckinley was
compared to Dickens's next most con-
temptible hypocrite, the REV. Chad
band" Mr.. Vest was the speaker and
during the debate on the army bill was
discussing the Presidents benevolent
assimilation policy in the Philippines.
Senator Vest continued:
Il know of but one parallel of this
scheme of Christian philanthropy. 1t is
to be found in one of Dic1enss novels
CBleak House). An eminent divine lays
his hands upon Poor 10 and says to him:
Young man, come with me and l will do
you good
Let me alone, cries the vagrant.
Let me alone. Take your hands off me.
In solemn anu sepulchral tones the
Rev. Mr.. Chadband replied: Young man,
| will not take my hand from your Shout
der l am a toiler and .moier and l
| intend to do you good in spite of your
self
So continued Mr. Vest, sit is with
the President. He places his hands upon
the shoulders of the Filipinos and says:
| / am toiler and a moiler and 1 intend
to save you in spite of yourself And
he wants a hundred thousand mission
aries with rifles to shoot his good reso-
| buttons into effect.
