the trust Will insist upon trying other
measures, before confessing utter defeat
and rout by recognizing the Miners Union
and asking it to make terms.
Every day that the strike lasts. as
Hanna pointedly said last week, means
thousands of votes made for the Demo
cratic candidate. Every day that it
lasts increases the danger that the mi
ners of other regions may take advantage
OF the political situation and strike for
their rights. The anthracite war is
silent but powerful missionary, ever
working against Hannaism and tAe
trusts. If it cannot be sQuelched, no

Carnegie and the Campaign
It was hardly good politics for Mr..
Schwab. President of Andrew Carnegie S
trust organization. to go TO Canton as he
did in company with Senator Penrose OF
Pennsylvania. His visit would have ex-
cited comment in any circumstances; but,
coming as it did just after Mr.. Carnegie S
announcement of his intention to support
Mr.. Mckinley while condemning that gen
tlemans course in everything but his pro-
lection of trusts, il was bound 10 occasion
a great deal of talk.
Mr.. Schwab made every effort to con-
cea1 his presence at the Presidents home;
but the ubiquitous reporter sighted and
nailed him. What he had to say to Mr..
Mckinley in the course of a two hours
conference we are unable TO state. But
the principal subject of conversation be-
tween the two gentlemen is probably not
difficult to guess at.
It has been Known for some time that,
appreciating his great interest in the per-
petuation of trust control over national
legislation and the executive, Marcus A
Hanna has counted confidently upon the
political and financial support of Andrew
| Carnegie and his steel associates. There is
no doubt that Mr.. Carnegie has expressed
/ his willingness to contribute literally tC
| the corruption fund under certain condi-
| tions He may entertain the feeling oi
unbounded confidence in Mr.. Mckinley per
! sonaIly that he processes He by no means
/ cCnfides equally in the good faith or hon
esty of the men who surround the Presi
dent and advise him. The steel king is {
eanny Scot, and always certain to drive 8
close bargain. He will know what he is Il
get for his money before putting it up. be-
yond any sort of question. No one IS in as
good position as the stout and smiling
person in the little front porch at Cantor

business Hence there need be no particu-
, lar mystery about the pilgrimage oi
Schwab to Canton. 1t is a story which
tells itself.

stones "Big Dinners."-One of Mr.
Hanna's chief newspaper organs in New
York has been publishing every day for
more than a week fanciful and elaborate
bills of fare which are supposed to set
forth the things eaten by Ex-Governor
Stone, of Missouri, and his associates in
the management of the Bryan campaign
in the East. In all of these publications
the most expensive wines and highfalutin'
French dishes figure prominently, and if
the newspaper in question is to be be-
lieyed, the Democratic managers pay not
less than SO plate for every meal they
eat-even including luncheon The real
fact in the case is that Ex-Governor Stone
is anything but a gourmet. Even if he
were inclined to live extravagantIy, the
condition of his health would not permit
him to do SO. He has been sufferer for
years from catarrh of the stomach, and
is forced to eat the plainest foods Tt
is stated by gentleman who recently Wis

Missourian's bills at the cafe rarely ex-
ceed So a day.

anybody interferes with the settlement of
the strike on MI Hanna'S terms he should
be lynched. Some time ago Mr. Hanna
was very much shocked by the suggestion
of Ex-Governor Stone. of Missouri manag-
er OF the Bryan campaign in the East that
il would be a salutary lesson if the honest
voters of West Virginia should lynch the
first they found OF the imported negroes
sent into that State by the Republican
managers 1t is thought that Mr.. Hanna
advice will have the effect OF inffamins

ers in the anthracite region to such an ex-
tent that violence viii ellsue. 1t is ar

under Mr.. Hannas direction or the direc-
tion of somebody else. Hence, if a NOUS
ing Hannaite should be strung up to the
nearest Iamppost at Hazleton the Iawless-
ness could be laid at Mr. Hanna's door
But Mr. Hanna is not the only person of
prominence in the country who has be-
come SO excited over the campaign as to
grow reckless in statement. New Jer-

that the proper way to deal with the men

Gel. Charles a. Edwards Of Texas, without

Chinese Names.

In China there is no fixed nomencla-
ture-even the country itself is without
a name-and this lack of distinct and
recognized appellations was a frequent
source of difficulty. OF personal in
formation from natives there was none
obtainable on which any credence
could be placed. A Chinaman, unless
he be porter cody or a boatman,
rarely travels or gets during his life
more than few miles in any direc-
ton from the place where he was
born. When trying TO procure informa-
ton concerning the immediate locality,
it was no uncommon thing to have
native, and even sometimes men of
local position, say, "Oh, have never
been so far away as that" or, 81 have
never been across that hill and so do

Colonel" said the romantic girl,
tell me how you got that scar upon
your left check. Oh, l just know it
must be a thrilling story. Was it made
by a bullet or saber thrust? 1 prefer
a saber thrust. 1t seems so much more
like the knighthOOd of old. You can't
see Il bullet coming, and there is no
way to escape it or combat it, but when
your enemy rushes at You with his up
lifted saber there is the possibility of
parrylng his blow and cutting him
down. That seems much more manly,
even if the victor in the fray does re-
ceive n wound or two, than to just be
laid low or to lay the enemy low by
no bravery in shooting n man, but
there is something knightly In meeting
another face TO face with n sword.
Your scar looks like one that was left
by a cleaning blade, and know that
your enemy must at least have been
rendered hors de combat. Tell me all
about 1t, colonel-when it happened
and how. l am so interested In war
stories"
YES" he replied, az agree with you
fully about the sword and saber bust
ness. There isn't much bravery in
shooting n fellow, and there is some
thing knightly about standing up and
thrusting and parrying with n blade.

The Soldier and His Heart.

Very few soldiers who have seen
much service escape what is called
battle heart
The ordinary state OF the heart IN
healthy people is one of irritability,
but in the soldier of five or six years
service the irritability is so great that
II constantly affects his temper.
The soldier wears such tight clothing
that his heart has not room to beat
freely, and the perpetual struggle to
do its work under difficulties Injuries
IT. The soldiers trousers are tight at
the waist. His coat is buttoned as
tightly as possible and very often he
squeezes himself with a belt.
Then when on the march his chest
is compressed by the weight of his
knapsack, canteen, great coat and
heavy cartridge belt
II you watch a company of soldiers
when they are doing a long march,
you will observe that most of them
have flushed faces, red ears. red noses,
swollen necks-showing that the heart
is greatly overtaxed. Some, on the
other hand, are pale, which proves that
their hearts are not equal to the work
thrown on them
When, after a very long march, the
men have to deploy into fighting order,
and perhaps rush a hill, very large
number break down altogether. Their
oyerstrained hearts never become
really strong and healthy again

charming entertainment by Pupils or
Rock Islands New School.
One of the most charming recitals
given in Rock Island took place at the
Academy of the Visitation. 29S9 Fifth
avenue, Tuesday and Wednesday
afternoons. The spacious parlors of
the academy were profusely deco
rated with roses and palms. which
made beautiful background for three
lovely young ladies, Miss Florence
Lee, of Rock Island; Miss Won Lora
Murphy, of Milwaukee. and Miss
Anna Larkin, of Rock Island, all of
whom were gowned in white. Miss
Lees playing was a revelation to her
many friends. She evinces more than
orc mary talent, and bright future is
predicted for her as a pianist, and for
Miss Murphy as a vocalist in the must
cal world. Both young ladies are en-
bryo artists. Miss Murphy's voice is a
dramatic mezZo and full of sweetness.
Miss Larkin came in for her full share
Of the honors, and was most artistic
in her work. She proved herself
at home in dramatic and HUI
morous selections. Miss Martina
Owen Ragland was the accompanist
for the occasion and did herself
proud. Rock Island has reason to be
pr oud of the new academy, which has
been with it only year. The work
done has been far above the a. erage,
which is evidence enough of the supe-
rior ability of the ladies in charge.
The program was as follows:
