There is the prospect of some rare fun
ahead for the Washington correspondents,
and of some severe shocks to the grave
and reverend Senate. Burns is now the
leading candidate in California for the
senatorship. He is known locally as a
bird and high-fiyer at that. He calls
himself lone of the boys" and swears he
doesn't care who knows it. He wears the
loudest clothes, the flashiest neckties and
the biggest diamonds that money can buy.
1t is predicted that memory of Tabor e
$1,000 night-shirts would be swallowed up
in the magnificence of Burns wardrobe,
should he be sent to Washington. In man.
ner of speech he is said to be somewhat
on the Chimmie Fadden order. Neverthe-
less he is a man of force of character, and
generally succeeds in what he sets out to
do He is understood to have the backing
of C. P. Huntington and the Pacific Rail-
road interests, hence there is fair pros
pect that he will enliven national legisla-
tive life for six years beginning with the
new Congress-

The trip of the Secretary Of War and
his party of friends to Cuba and Porto
Rico on the transport Berlin will, it Is
stated, cost one-ffth of a million of dol
lars. The original party, 1t is understood,
consisted of about twelve guests, the mem
bers of which have been invited by the
secretary to take their wives and children
with them. Thus the ship will take some
thirty or forty passengers. Her usual
complement of troops is about 300. A
Washington dispatch TO the Philadelphia
Record says it has not yet been determined
whether the money to pay for the trip
will be taken out of the fund for national
defenses, or the fund to pay the Cuban
soldiers, or the funds of the various bu-
reaus of the war department.

Secretary Alger must have been talking
through his hat when he said, in the
course of his Detroit speech respecting
the Stars and Stripes: They have never
been taken down from where they were
planted but once before. and they will
never be again" Has Gen. Alger never
heard thai the Stars and Stripes were
once raised in Mexico, and subsequently
taken down? Does he not know that the
stars and Stripes are now floating in Gu
ba' and that we are most solemnly pledged
that they shall be taken down? There is

The Japanese government has under con-
sheraton the holding of a great interna-
ationaI exposition in the year 1902. There
has never yet been an International ex-
position in any Oriental country, and ia
pans enterprise would no doubt be ar
tistically and financially a great success.
It would be attended by the leisure classes
of Europe and the Americas, which are
large enough TO insure a sufficient pa

The Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Times has been looking
around for reason to account for the an
parent hostility to Admiral schley in the
alleged naval clique. AT the Army and
Navy Club IAN old officer who has often
given sage suggestions" told him this:
Some rascal has led Mckinley to believe
that the Democrats intend to nominate
Bryan and schley; now mark my words,
the entire power of the administration will
be used to smirch Schley, just as il has
been used to smirch Gen. Miles" Was IT
the suggestion, some time ago that Gen
Miles had political ambition, which has

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Louisville (Ky) Dispatch Dem.)
says: 1.-The President is clamoring for a
200 per cent increase in the army. The
imperialists want millions for the navy and
for coast defenses. The pension roll is
becoming more burdensome. The ratifica-
ton of the peace treaty calls for an appro-
priation of $40, 900. Every branch of the
public service is calling for more money
and IN the midst of this we are told the
war tax is to be maintained for two or
more years, and even then a bond issue
may be necessary. But this does not deter
Hanna in his efforts to push through the
ship subsidy steal, and the President does
not hesitate 10 suggest another big subsi-
dy for a Pacific cable"
The Chattanooga Times (Dem.). says:
There are now FIVE states in which the
legislatures are deadlocked over the cleo
ton of United States, senators. These
states are Pennsylvania, Delaware, Ne
braska, Utah and California. Several 9TH
err legislatures have fooled away weeks
or months over senatorial elections. Hun
dreds of thousands of dollars of public
money have been wasted in these long
wrangles, and the people will never be
benefited, whatever the outcome, by the
value of a poor penny. This is a good
objective argument for the proposition to
elect senators at the polls, along with MEM
bers of the house."
The Philadelphia Record (Dem.). says:
Secretary Wilson tells the farmers of the
South that the way to make their cotton
crop pay is to grow Tess of 1t. He insists
that ''diversiication'' is the gospel of pros
perity for the Southern farmer. He should
feed his cottonseed to his own steers; make
his own butter, and to that end learn the
art of butter making; raise his own spring
chickens and spring lambs, and spring
them early on the Northern markets. Di-
versihcation would afford larger opportun-
ity for the employment of the negroes of
the South, and thus help to solve at one
and the same time the questions involved
in land and labor in that section of the
country"
The Cincinnati Enquirer CDem.). says:
There is a class much affected by the
question as to who is going to haul down
the Stars and Stripes at Manila. This is
the sentimental feature of the business
The heavy hand of taxation has not fallen
with all the force that is in store for the
people There Is practical trouble ahead
Before we allow our enthusiasm to run
away with us, let us remember that the
fiddler is to pay and that he is a high
priced musician.

Hose Water and Rain.

Flowers know the difference between
a rainstorm and a drenching from the
garden hose. You may deluge them
with barrels from the hydrant, ana
they will at best simply hold their own.
Generally they wither in the long,
dry seasons and that without regard to
the artificial wetting they may re-
ceive from the gardeners. But let q
little shower, however brief, fall upon
them, and they brighten visibly.
The difference is that the rain brings
down with it through the air or col
lects in the air a chemical quality that
the vegetation needs. The rainwater
may be as like that in the lake as two
volumes Of water can be, but when it
has ridden the upper levels of the at
mOsphere, when it has travelled
through the various stages Of vapor
and liquid and has tumbled down
through that retort of the air, it has
become charged with elements that no
man can give it, and the flower knows
and recognizes it, as the first field
flowers recognize it in the beginning.

English Secret Service Money.


The term "secret service money! is
usually applied to fund placed at the
disposal Of ministers to be expended
at their discretion in promoting or pro-
tecting the interests of this country.
These moneys consist of a sum of $685.
900 annually included in the estimates,
in respect of which ministers are only
required to make a declaration that
the moneys spent have been expended
Gin accordance with the intentions Of
parliament"
AS ministers are required to give no
account of their stewardship, it is OBJ
viOus we have no means of knowing
how these moneys are expended. The
reader, however, who carries his mind
back to episodes within his knowledge,
such as the collapse Of the Fenian con
spiratOrs or of their later develop
ment, the Irish Invincibles," will have
little difficulty in realizing how indis-
penSable fund Of this kind is to the

A Fighting Swan.

That a swan will fight fiercely was
shown by an exciting struggle be-
tween a swan and a park policeman on
the upper lake in WaterlOW park, Eng
land. Some india rubber balls had
rolled into the water, and to get them
the constable padded out in a punt.
This drew the notice of the male swan,
which deserted it's consort and the
brood of cygnet and went for the con-
stable with great fury. Once or twice
it almost upset the punt by causing
the constable to overbalance it in saw
ing his legs from the birds beak. 1t
was only with difficulty and risk that
the balls were recovered. The swan
then followed the punt to the bank,
making vicious darts at the constable.

"Cheese," said some wiseacre long
ago. "digests everything but itself"
Never was there a greater error per-
petuated by a popular proverb. 1t aids
in the digestion of nothing, and, being
almost totally indigestible, simply adds
another burden to an already over
burdened digestive system. The feel

ANT1-pHEYEus THUGS TURN LOOSE.
Insult Ladies and Generally Develop

Insult Ladies and Generally Develop
Their Depravity.
Scenes OF great excitement occurred
at Rennes Saturday night. The anti
Dreyfusards broke loose and started q
demonstration which, but for prompt
and rigorous measures by the police,
would undoubtedly have developed in
to serious disorders. About s o'clock
the crowds gathered at the Cafe
de IL paiX and in the square beside it
and the adjacent street Just then an
incident occurred st the Hotel Mod
erne, which is known as the Dreyfus-
and center. Two men, notorious
nti-Dreyfusards, entered the winter
garden, inside the hotel and sat down
at one Of the little marble tables under
the palm trees and ordered coffee: At
an adjoining table sat La Dame Blanche
with a companion, while at other
tables were seated NM. Bernard, Lazare
and GOrzinetti, with other Dreyfus-
ards.
The two newcomers at once began to
make offensive remarks about Dreyfus
and Jews generally. One of them,
turning to La Dame Blanche, said: ooh,
these dirty Jews; these dirty Dreyfus-
ards" La Dame Blanche replied, tell
ing him not to address her. The@m men,
however, persisted and added personal
insults, WhereupOn La Dame Blanche
became greatly excited and called
them cads to insult a woman. The men
retOrted Extensively, and in a moment
La Dame Blanche Snatched a menu
card in a heavy metal frame and threw
it at the head of her insulter, narrowly
missing him.
The other diners, seeing the trouble,
rose Ell masse and threatened to throw
the men out of the garden. In an in
slant the place became perfect babel,
every one shouting at the top OF his
voice, calling the men towards and
"canaille." The ladies present hastily
withdrew, Nine. LaZare being carried
away in a faniting condition. Just as
the threatened free fight was on the
point of breaking out detachment OF
gen darmes arrived and, after a scene
of intense excitement, put the men
who had caused the disturbance into
the street.
Similar incidents occurred in other
parts Of the town and again in the
Hotel MOderne but the gen d'armes
were prompt always and broke up the
mobs, arresting a large number Of
rioters
