The late Marquis Of Winchester, who
vas recently killed in the. South African
war was very popular with his soldiers.
There was one duly, however, in connec-
ton with the Household Brigade which he
positively detested, and many stories are
told of the Marquis stubborn protests
against going on bank guard. The staff
quarters assigned the officers in Thread
needle street were close and stuffy, and
the Marquis invariably left them with a
violent headache. Once when going off
duty he said 10 the sergeant: This job
always makes me wish such commodity
as filthy lucre had never been invented
Then there would be no bank guard"
But, my dear lord came the reply,
you wouldn't have had an income of so
many thousand year. That might not
have been very pleasant, either"
"Oh. sergeant" reioined the Marquis
with a smile, ''it is not the first time in
my life that 1 have wished l had been
born plain John Smith, without sixpence
in my pocket, unless 1 had earned It,"

GAVE A CHILDREN's PARTY.
A Novel Entertainment at the Young
Mems Hebrew association.

A very enjoyable affair was given last
night at the Young Mems Hebrew Asso-
cations rooms that was attended by
many. The number of costumes was I'M
usual, all seeming to take an interest in
the party and desiring TO add to its sue
cess by appearing in character.
The entertainment was "chldren's
party" The plan was for every one on
the floor to be arrayed in child's costume,
and some of the effects were very laugh
able Many of the young ladies' looked
very charming as little girls, though such
a sweeping assertion would not apply with
reference to the appearance of the young
men as little boys. The majority look far
better in their ordinary attire.
All entered heartily into the spirit of
the occasion Games were played and
great fun was had in being children again.
The gymnasium hall furnished a nice
enough place for the festivities, which
were continued until after midnight. Dane
ing was enjoyed during the later hours.
and was interrupted for refreshments. The
affair was very successful, and all who
attended were glad they had, even though
they We're put to some trouble in getting
up their costumes.

Tammany Views on silver.

The Tammany Times. the personal
organ OF Boss Croker and the Ice
Trust, in its issue OF August Is. al
ludes. pleasantly to the 'Weak-kneed
nondescripts who are so alarmed at the
false cry of free silver. and adds:
"Silver is a scarecrow. Empire is the
man with the gun who compels the
payment of the endless tax"
Political history will have to be scru-
tinized very closely to find paral-
lei for the shameless hypocrisy and
double-dealing of the Democratic par
ty in the present campaign 1t Is
doubtful whether ever before members
of political party could be found with
the cynical effrontery to go before the
people with declarations that the polit-
ical platform which they solemniy
adopted was a collection of meaning
less platitudes: that there should be
no fear that the party would attempt
to redeem the pledges of that platform,
and that the people who believed that
the Democrats really meant what they
said Fere "weak-kneed nondescripts."
The Tammany view of free silver Is
simply one illustration. Nearly every
plank in the Democratic platform has.
In some section OF the country, been
interpreted in precisely the same spir-
It in which Tammany interprets the
free silver plank.
Southern Democratic newspapers OF
character and standing take the posi-
tlon that the talk about the consent Of
the governed is mere campaign
thunder. with frankness which Is
almost brutal. they announce that the
negroes of the south shall be governed
without their consent, express or Inn
p,ied: that negro suffrage was imposed
by force and that they will nuhify the
constitution, or refuse obedience to Its
provisions.
In the far western states. where the
expansion sentiment Is strongest. and
where the free silver movement once
had hold on the people. the Demo
cratic talk Is that the party is not
really opposed to retention Of the
Philippines, but that the Imperialism
plank was inserted for the purpose OF
making inroads on the Republican
strength In the states OF the East and
Middle West. and that free silver has
to be subordinated in measure TO
this issue in order not to drive away
the sound money voters.
The trust issue has apparently
dropped somewhat into obscurity,
since the Democratic plank on the sub
ject was framed by one trust msgnate.
and another trust magnate was select
ed 10 conduct the Democratic national
campaign: but these facts themselves
are sufficient to show that the Demo-
cratic attitude on this. as on all other
subjects to which allusion has been
made In the Democratic platform OF
alleged principles. IL rankly hypocrit-
ical.
The truth Is that the Democratic
party IS not united in support OF .one
single plank in the Democratic plat
form. The principle upon which
more Democrats Of this country are
in absolute harmony than any other II
opposition 90 the protective tariT; and
that is the one particular subject on
which the Democratic platform has
little TO say. save in the most perfume
tory way.
