When the French quartermastor,
Disionval, was confined In prison BY
the Dutch at Utrecht. he sought TO be-
guile the tedium OF his prison life
by attentively studying the habits Of
the spiders which frequented bis cell;
the eight years OF imprisonment gave
him leisure to be we'll versed in their
ways. In December OF 1894 the French
army, on whose victory over the Dutch
depended Disionval's restoration to
liberty, was In Holland, and the victory
seemed certain IL the frost, which was
then OF unprecedented severity, con-
tlnued. The Dutch ENJOYS had failed
to negotiate a peace and Holland
was despair1ng when the frost sud
denly broke. The Dutch were now
exulting. and the French generals ap-
peared to retreat; but the spiders Of
Disjonval's cell forewarned him that
the thaw would be of short duration,
and he knew THAI his little insect
weather-monitor deceived him. Ac-
cordingly he contrived to communicate
his weather knowledge TO the army OF
his countrymen and its generals, who
duly estimating his (Disjonval's) char
acter. relied upon his assurance that
within few days the waters would

before the election OF Snator Blackburn.
The chamber of tho houee wa never more
crowded than when Representative Nell
son introduced Mr.. Bryan. The latter
was accompanied by J. c. s. Blackburn
and Senator Goebei. Mr.. Bryan proposed
two laws that he hoped would be enacted
in Kentucky One was to make It a
felony for a corporation TO contribute TO
campaign funds and the other to prohibit
betting on elections. He held that betting
is bad morals and bad public policy, He
believed that men often bet for fear OF
showing lack OF confidence in their
cause.

Concerning Enjoyment.

A man's first duty in life is to be hap
py, observes the Punx'y Spirit. There
are, however, and always has heen, a
large and respectable portion of the hu-
man race who regard all forms of amuse-
ment, no matter how innocent as wicked.
To play games, especially with cards-on
which are pictures of knaves with dag
gers in their hands, on the face, and dew
lis with spiked tails on the backs-to Wis
it thesters, TO dance and to do anything
that does not appear sombre and sober,
is looked upon by many as an evidence
of total deprayity. To spend all your
time in frivolous amusements, is of
course to be worthless. But to seek rec
reation after performing the duties of the
day and to be vivacious and happy, is
a duty you owe both to yourself aud
your fellows.
A solemn mein and determination to
be as miserable and dull and uncongenia;
as possible has somehow come to be gen.
orally mistaken for piety. And to ac-
quire such reputation many a man who
might otherwise be jolly fellow, and
shed the sunshine of genial nature
about him, goes about like a funeral pro-
cession and only succeeds in being q
contemplate hypocrite.

cheerful, and show his people that it is
not necessary to be misanthrope in or

This world, with the beautiful things

Business Disaster Candidate.

1t seems impossible tor this country to
pass through a presidential campaign
without some business disturbance. This
year it was hoped that there would be
less interruption from this cause than
usual, in view of the reasonable certainty
of Republican triumph. But capital is
always timid. Wendell Philips once re-
marked that there was nothing so cow
ardly as million dollars-except two
millions. And timid capital is already
curtailing its operations to some extent,
on the ground that, after all no political
prophecy can be counted certain of full
fillment until after the votes are counted.
conservative banking house in a re-
cent circular letter, says: "Mr. Bryan is
a most dangerous man. He is disturber
OF the peace, and seeks to antagonze cap
ital and labor. He is opposed to all cor
porations, especially TO the banks. He
advocates the ultimate issue of irredeem-
able paper money by the Government,
and he advocates and approves the Pop
ulistic doctrines which are so prominent
in the Chicago platform"
This dangerous man appears to bave a
sure thing Of capturing the Democratic
presidential nomination, and his support
ers claim that all the anti Republican ele-
ments will he united in his support.
This will make dangerous combination.
There are business men among the Dem
ocrats who have just as large a stake in
the prosperity Of the country as the Re-
publicans, and who are equally interest
ed in having Bryan defeated, either in
the convention or before the people. If
these men could rally their forces and
compel the Kansas City convention to
nominate a man whose very name would
not be menace to all property interests.
the disturbing element of the presiden-
tial contest would be very largely elimi-
mated. Failing in that. these men should
promptly and openly array themselves
on the side of the party of prosperity and
thus end any uncertainty that may be
felt as to the outcome.
The party that sets up a professional
disturber of values and paralyzer of in
dustry as presidential candidate is not
entitled to any consideration at the hands
OF the sturdy sons of toll and the enter
prlslng promoters of commercial and
business activity, The industrial sorres
OF the country should be and we believe
