THE resignation of General Russell A.
Alger of the war portfolio IN President
McKinley's cabinet was made public last
week, and the President has accepted
the same to take effect August lst. For
months the war department has been
a target Of criticism, much of which was
without doubt unwarranted, yet it has
had the effect TO seriously impair Mr..
Alger's usefulness as chief of that depart
ment, whether the criticisms have been
just or unjust, and his resignation seems
to have been the only way out of the diff
ficultv. The President has named Elihu
b. Root of New York for the vacancy
and that gentleman has accepteL. He
will bring great legal ability to the po-
sition, though he is not military man.
His competence in diplomatic affairs is
unquestioned, and his honesty.and high
standing as man conceded on every
hand.

A RECENT decision of the State Su-
preme Court establishes the principle
that voter is entitled to vote for candi-
dates for all the offices to be filled, and
if the official party ballot does not con-
tain sufficient names of candidates he
may, in addition to marking cross in
the circle at the head of the party ticket,
mark a cross opposite name in another
column without invalidating the ballot
cast, This reverses opinions heretofore
handed down by Judges of Common
Pleas Courts throughout the State.

The protest against the censorship at
Manila, signed by a number of corre-
spondents, is an amusing document in
some respects. They seem surprised to
find that they can not use the cable at
Manila, which at present is simply mil
itary telegraph, as freely as the wires are
utilized at home. The army lines are
formed around Manila or few miles
away. II is the front. Ordinarily, war
correspondents are not allowed to tele-
graph anything from the front. Sher-
man hanished them from his department.
Commanding Generals do not open their
telegraphc facilities to outside matter.
As a rule, the wires are crowded with
army business. The correspondents at
Manila have enjoyed greater facilities
than is customary. They seem to i'm
agine that they are called upon to con-
duet affairs at Washington as well as
Manila. If thes absurdly pretentious
and oflicious civilians are expelled from
Gen. Otis lines no soldier of experience
will be surprised.

The "kissing-bug" is, of course, fad
and fake. The bug is a well-known
species of beetle, the melolestes opicipes,
and is very plentiful in Kentucky, where
it is regarded as perfectly harmless. The
bug is evidently not the offender. Mos
quito and spider bites, bee and wasp
stings are no doubt all blamed on this
mysterious bug, which is humbug, for
the reason that it is more likely to be
talked of and make the person bitten a
little more conspicuous. Most people do
love notoriety, and will accept tin almost
any form. Hence the kissing-bug has
come TO fill long felt want, but will dis
appear as soon as the newspapers cease to

publicity, or the public becomes nause-

The Prohibition State convention was
held in Philadelphia last Friday, and the
following ticket was placed in the field:
State Treasurer, John NJ. Caldwell, of
Northumberland county; Supreme
Court Judge, Agin Ricketts,, Luzerne
county; Superior Court Judge, II. L.
Robinson, Fayette county. Allys of
Democracy were present TO work up an
endorsement for their candidate for State
Treasurer, but the leaders had evidently
calculated that they had gotten near
enough to the absorbing point in the last
two State campaigns and didn't propose
to have the job entirely completed by
the unterrifed in the coming contest, and
so Mr.. Creasy's name was not so much
as mentioned in the convention.

expressed desire for a full knowledge

with these words. the truth of which ev-
cry one will recognize:
"And yet the life of this man, endowed
to win the brightest laurels in the gift of

persuasive eloquence were used to break
down the Christian religion, the most

he paraded his unbeief and sought to

name, which should have been placed so

HENDERSONS' ELECTION.
His Friends Are Confident He Will Have
"aikover.


Chicago June 3.-Congressman D. B.
Henderson of Iowa arrived in Chicago
to-day to meet he said, some of his
friends of the Illinois, Wisconsin and
Michigan delegations. Congressman
Hopkins was the first to greet him and
they conferred together for over an
hour. Advices received to-day, 1t is
asserted by Colonel Henderson's
friends, assures his selection as
speaker The action of the Illinois
delegation on Friday and assurances
from Indiana. and Michigan, left little
doubt in their minds as to the outcome
of the contest, but word came that the
10 Massachusetts republican congress-
men and the Maryland delegation of
four had voted to cast their lot with
the Iowan, the claims were made that
his election wassnoW+ CERTAIN.
The following Vdtas, General Hender-
son says, are now pledged TO him: Hi
nois, IA; Iowa, Il; Ohio, Is; Wisconsin,
10; Minnesota, I; South Dakota, 2;
Massachusetts, 10: Maryland, 4. To this
will be added to certainty 1T is as
serted, the votes of the Michigan and
Indiana delegations-12 from the former
and 8 from the latter, giving him total
of 81 votes, or one more than a majority
of the republican votes in the house.
Later in the afternoon word came
from Topeka that six of the seven re-

SHE NEVER SAW HER HUSBAND.
Both Are Blind and He Thinks of Her
as Young.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles H. Chase of
Nantucket are each nearly 70 years old
and they have been married the greater
part of that time, yet the wife has
never seen her husband, for she has
been blind since, she was 5. File, too,
has been blind since she was 10.
A neighbor, talking to a Washington
Star man, says of them:
mo one would suppose that blind per
sons were the caretakers of their little
home Inside there is not a speck of
dust to be seen. The floors are spotless
and the windows are decorated with
house plants. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Chase
are devout members of the Baptist
church. They always decline guidance
to the church, declaring that when do
ing their duty Providence will guard
and protect them from all harm. When,
however, the infrequent opportunity of
going to hear music, of which both
are very fond, comes they are glad of
assistance fearing, as they say, that in
the pursuit Of pleasure harm may come
to them.
MIR. Chase has been blind So years,
but his wife lost her sight at years
of age and has never seen her hus-
band. He, however saw her at Is and
thinks of her now as still in the full
flush of girlish beauty. Mrs. Chase
reads aloud from the raised-letter Bible
for the blind, and this is their favorite
occupation when at leisure. In order
that the wife's fingers may be in good
condition to read the husband does the
heavier work of the household The
couple are much esteemed by the towns
people, who never allow them to want
for anything that money can pur-

AN OLD MAP OF PALESTINE.
Valuable Find Made in the British
Museum.


map that is destined to prove of
practical benefit to bible students and
scholars generally was recently discov-
cred hidden in the midst of lot of
musty manuscripts found in the Brit
ish museum. The map shows plan of
Jerusalem made in the seventh century
and contains as well the location o.
every important place in Palestine. The
drawings were made by Marine Sanu-
do, the elder. a Venetian nobleman, VINO
made five journeys to the holy land to
perfect his design. His aim was to
arouse the Christians of Europe to the
Importance of Palestine and to urge
them to another crusade against the
Moslem invaders who had captured
Jerusalem in 636 under the command of
khalif Omar.
The old mao is carefully drawn 10
correspond to some scale of measure
ment which tire discoveries have not
yet been able to determine. Palestine
is divided into 81 equal spaces in leigtn
and % in width. Mauv Of the identifi-
cations of the Historic spots of sacred
and profane history, The scenes of vari-
Gus battles and the tombs of the proph-
cts and kings, for instance, are better
placed in the Italians map than in
more modern plans of the holy land.
The map, of course, is some hundreds
of years removed from the actual time
of the Savior's life upon earth, but it is
nearer the destruction of Jerusalem by
some 1900 years than the world of to-
day. Even the latest books issued on
Palestine have very vague knowledge
of the actual sites of the holy places,
so that the map of the old italian is
destined to furnish light for a subject
that is seen a present only through a
glass darkly.
