HAIRPINS FOR VICTORIA.
by the Little Daughter of
Emperor william.

One Christmas present which caused
intense delight was received by her
majesty last year from the tiny daugh-
ter of Kaiser William. 1t was a box of
hairpins of the value of about quarter
dollar The little princess was taken
by her mother, the empress, TO a shop
in Berlin and told 10 buy grandmamma
present, and also to buy something
that she wanted for herself. In order
to accomplish this object the princess
was given gold piece of 20 marks value
Give dollars) First. she bought herself
a doll, for which she gave 10 marks. Her
imperial mother did not interfere
Then she bought grandmamma of Eng
land the hairpins for the remaining
mark out of her 20, and felt proud and
generous. The emperor Of Austria al
ways sends the queen of England a
case or two OF certain brand Of very
costly, very rare Tokay, and l ought
not to forget, by the way, that the Ger
man emperor follows his grandfather's
example of sending his English grand
mother a case of Johannisberg, the real.
genuine Johnannisberg, as valuable al
most as the elixir of life. The Russian
emperor for the last year or two has
sent the illustrious lady, who, thanks 20
his marriage, has now become also his
grandmother, malachite and jade vases
TO match the magnificent malachite
vase which his father, Emperor Alex
ander ILL.,, presented TO the queen In

Patriotism In France and Germany.

The Strasburg Post relates the fol-
lowing as an instance of what some peo-
pie at the end of the nineteenth CEN
tury call "patriotism:" A German in
ventor had entered into negotiations
with French firm, who stole his inven-
ton. lie asked a French lawyer TO de-
fend him, but the lawyer informed him
that no French judge could be found
who would give decision favorable to
a German. "Frenchmen of the Roche
fort type would probably consider this
lawyer a bad patriot. He should have
taken the Germans case, lost it and
bled him nicely in the costs"

Died While ut Prayer.

Detroit, May 26.-Coroner Hoffman,
was called to 400 Wesson avenue, where
Mrs. Louisa Kamin had died while at
prayer. Her daughter found her in a
kneeling posture at her bedside and de-
cided that, as her mother was troubled
with her heart, that complaint must
have been the cause of death.

Fell Into the River.

Port Huron, May 26.-Charles Dun
ham, an 1s-year-old youth of the north
end, while fishing off the Grand Trunk
dock, took fit and fell into the st.
Clair river. The young man was sub
jetc to fits and for some time has been
under the care of a physician. The
body was grappled for and recovered.

meet at Mount Clemens on June to de-

Badly burned.

Albion, May 27.-Mrs. Silas Squires
was smoking Thursday, her clothes
caught fire, and before the flames could
be extinguished she received burns
which owing to her advanced age of 81,
will probably prove fatal. Mrs. Frank
Free, while aiding her, was severely
burned.

GOOD READING FOR MuGwUMPs.

That was not only a great speech
 which Attorney General Griggs deliv-
 cred at Yale, but a lecture in cheerful
 optimism which should dry up the well springs of any lachrymose mug
 wump who is not an incurable chronic, and bring new hope to the pess .mE sts of society. The reasons are there. Let those who think all the graces have died out of every heart but their own,
 that Satan rules the church, that pri-
 vate and public virtue no longer exist
 that the ship of state is steering ua-
 der sealed orders for perdition, and
 that all hope is lost-let them read
 this declaration Of faith All hope IS
 indeed lost to Edward Atkinson and
 Larry Godkin but let those who are as
 yet only tainted with mugwump infec-
 ton take a dose C,e Dr. Gfggs' pleas
 ant tasting elixir, shake off their hy-
 pochondria, roll up their sleeves and
 take hand n the events that are
 rounding out the most glorious c6n- tury in the worlds history. Humanity
 was never so humane as now, scholar
 ship was never so general and ripe,
 patriotism never so gennine and wide spread, philanthropy never So active and generous, religion never so infiu- ential and practical, the law never so just and impartial, civilization and Christianity never so far reaching. and opportunity never knocked so of ten at mems doors as in this day of bitter anarchists and sad-eyed mug wunps. Let all the pessmists, great and small, read Gr;ggs' New Haven speech, and let them memorize this extract:
 Regard the education. the intelI- gence, the manner of living, the i'm provement of ordinary dwellings, the food on the table, the clothes that are worn, the books that are read, the newspapers that come every day, the shortened hours of labor, the holidays, the increase of travel and visitation, the extension to the masses of the privileges of art, literature, and sci ence, which but a short time ago were only by the wealthy-con- slider the extension and improvement in all these things, as we'll as in the scientific inventions and appliances that tend to promote business, inn prove manufacture, extend commerce and create wealth, and everybody will | admit without moments hesitation 1 that the people are living better, feel | ing better, and doing better than in l any other period of the worlds his tory This is our judgment as to the | century in this closing | year. The record is one of prod:gious | growth and expansion, of multiplica | ton in wealth and resources, and | above all of ameliorat ton in the cond.- Ion otG all classes of the people.

ACTIVITY OF THE DOCTORS.

No profession of the day has a more earnest or hard working lot of devo
 tees than that of medicine, and in no other branch of knowledge and eXperi
 ment is greater activity shown at the
 present. Conventions called to con- sider the treatment of tuberculosis
 and other dreaded diseases of human ity, and the prevention of their spread,
 have ttis year been noteworthy for their distinguished participants, and numerous announcements show that the work for humanity gOes on in the laboratories with the greatest zeal A dispatch from Antwerp announces that Drs Requeth and Lebro of the Be.s,an Medical academy, have dis covered a serum for the cure of can cer, the efficacy of which has been proven by repeated experiments with horses At the same time physicians in New York and Canada make claims for fever antidotes, and concurrent announcements of the verifcatiOn of SaranelI's discovery of the germ of yellow fever and the successful pro- ductiOn of serum for the cure of that disease seem to assure the possibility of / fectively checking two of the most dreaded diseases which afiict the hu- man race. It is evident that it will not be the fault of the doctors if the profession of medicine is not soon lift ed to a position among the exact sciences, with known rules whose pre- ven;ive and remedial application will prove the greatest boon for humanity yet discovered.

WHAT IS A SPENDTHRIFT?

A Chicago court is just now engaged in seeking an answer to the question as to what constitutes a spendthrift
 The issue has arisen out of the Ben edict will case. on trial in that city. Mrs. Benedict. who died in Paris, left an est@te of S600 GOO. to be held in trust for her sou. out of which the yiJung man received an annual income Of S2O,G;W. He now sues for the whole estate. and the trustee resiStS. saving that Palmer is q spendthrift because he has sDeEt S1OO0G0 in two years. The defense, in outlining the case. at tempted to prove that the complainant lost S50000 in three months on the New York Stock Exchange.
 Taken altogether, the question is q peculiar one. There are many mem in Chicago who might give valuable in formation as ito the spending of money. No doubt there would be q wide differ ence of opinion between the views of Joe Letter, the great plunger. and those of Mir. Dooly. who has become so famous through the writing of Mir Dunn. Somewhere betweeri the views of Letter and Dooly we might find q safe line. beyFIld which the region Of the spendthrift might be reached. and under which character of thrif;iness would be gained. There are milTfon< of mer' throughout the United States today. who, in their anxiety to be counted conservative. are anxious to kniOw if it would be safe for them to spend as much as $50.C00 q year. Of course there are those who would not pass the 50-cent limit; but these peo- pie are psnur.ouS.-Atlalta COnstitu- ton

If Colonel Roosevelt were a schem- ing and ambitious politician and the nominations of the next republican candidates for president and v.ce president were in doubt, there might be a considerable significance in the enthusiasm which the head of the Rough Riders aroused in the west and southwest during h:s recent visit to New Mexico. But there is no such doubt, and he knows what every other discerning man knows. that his recsp- tion is largely due to the fact that in tis vigorous manhood and splendid Amer.canism he is the embodiment of that policy which has marked the course of McKinley's adm illustration during the past year. The enthusiasm of the west shows the loyalty of the people to the pre-ident and his war policy as much as it does the personal popularity of the colonel of the Rough Riders

One of the favorite lies of the Fili-
 pino sympathizers and administration enemies is that government censor ship is suppressing the truth from Ma nila This is shown to be false by the correspondent of a New York paper who says: T receive a letter on near ly every transport arriving at San Francisco from Manila which $ wri1- ten on the firing line. trenches, jungles or any other place, and which I am positive never has been censored. Neither has any of my mail sent out to Manila failed to reach it's destina- tion." This proves the baseness of one charge against the war depart ment. It would be utterly useless to seek the deception of people by cen sored cablegram so long as letters are freely permitted to circulate and only the person who wishes to Oe- lisve the worst of the reckless charges constantly invented by shameless par tisans and traitors will place any credit in them whatever.

Another German Court decision is of
interest. A family named Werner, in
East Prussia, purchased some meat. 1t
was inspected by Meat Inspector Leh-
wald, who found no trichinae. The
family ate the meat and died of trich-
inosis, and Lehwald has been sentenced
to prison for fifteen months for not
finding the germs. The charge does
not appear to have been either negli-
gence or incompetency. He was SIM
ply punished because he did not find
what it was his business to find, and
innocent people suffered. We do this
sort of thing differently. Bad beef was
issued to the army during the Spanish
war, and the chief culprit was sent
enced to five years idleness on full pay.
In Germany Eagan would probably
have been sentenced to hard labor for
life.
