Fishers at Chicago.

Sporting goods men in Chicago say
that every Sunday not less than 20,

the summer sports nom Is really so
popular as angling. This is shown by
the large and constant sale Of tackle.
TIE department stores sell huge guam
titles of it every Saturday morning.
They also sell live bait. minnows and
frogs in wholesale lots. Some of the
purchasers go no farther than the lake
front, but most Of them seek the lakes

We continue to get surprises in the
figures of the new census, and the most
astonishing of them all is the showing
of Omaha, Neb., whose population is
shown to have actually diminished no
less than 26 per cent during the past

doubt that our eastern cities have been
growing faster than those of the west
during the last decennial period.

The REQUISITES of Government.

The requisites of government are
that there be sufficiency OF food, suf-
fciency Of military equipment and
confidence of the people in their ruler.
If he cannot be helped. and n OF
these must be dispensed with. the
military equipment should be fore
gone first. II it cannot be helped,
and one of the remaining two must
be dispensed with, part with the food.
From of old death has been the lot Of
men, but if the people have no faith
in their rulers there is no standing
for the state.-Confucius.

DEATH OF MRS. SHAW.

The hearts of the comrades everywhere
go out to Commander-in-Chiaf Shaw in the
deep affiiction that has come upon him
through the sudden death of his wcll-be-
loved wife, Mrs. Mary Keith Shaw, which
took place at their home in Watcrtown,
n. Y, Feb. 13. When first taken ill there
were no apprchensions. but she rapidly
grew worse, and the Commander-in-Chicf
was telegrapied for TO Boston. He did not
reach home until after her death. The
Watertown Times says editorially:
All over the Nation the thousands who
have met Col. Albert d. Shaw, Commander
'in-Chief of the Grand Army OF the Repub-
lie, will sympathize deeply with him in the
loss of his beloved wife, a bereavement
which comes with crushing force upon
him. She was the sharcr of all his strug
giles and triumphs, the inspiration of his
life, the keeper of a sweet home, where she
presided with all the graceS Of a Christian
wife and mother model in all womanly
virtues. From under his roof had just de-
parted his two daughters as happy brides,
and the echoes of the wedding bells are fol-
lowed so soon by the funeral knell for her
who was the center and life and JOY of the
home life, idolized by her husband and
cHllCrel. IN Ieii. ofltlW 5 Official lie Sfe
has been the guardian of his interests and
his wise counselor. The veteran COM
mander finds himself suddenly bereft OF
that happy home life which has been so
much to him. He has Travelled far and wide
Oh his errands of Christian work for the Y.
NJ. c. A. and OF patriotism in his care of the
Grand Army, and from all over the land
hands will stretch across the miles from
fellow workers and old comrades, i'm close
grasp OF friendship and sympathy for his
great loss. In this community, where the
loving wife was so well known, there is
sense of personal loss, and sympathy for
Col. Shaw and his children is deeply felt
and freely expressed everywhere.
In personal letter TO the editor of THE
NATIONAL TRIBUNE, the Commander-in-
Chief says:
The appalling affiiction that cam. upon
sly heart and home in the death of ny wife
on the 18th, has almost staggered me. Mrs.
Shaw was an ideal wife, mother and friend
OF the needy and heayy-laden. and in her
departure the loving and inspiring light OF
my life has gone out forever. j know it is
only the common lot of man. and yet this
knowledge does not make the pain less. or
the loneliness less crushing. Gods love is
the only refuge in such an appalling affiic-
zion. and TO Him turn in humility of soul.

IT Is whispered around Washington that
the Democrats are preparing fir5t-class
surprise for the Republicans in the coming
campaign, on the pension question They
are lying very low now, to draw the Re
pubicans on, and keep them from doing
anything decisive for the veterans until
Congress adjourns. The Democrats only
put forward one or two of their mon, from
time 10 time, to make speeches on pensions,
TO show the Democratic position through
out the session. Then, when Congress
has adjourned, they will make the country
ring with the stories of the injustices of the
Pension Bureau to the veterans. and are
industriously accommodating material to
substantiatc all that they may say. They
are all ready for the retort Of the Republi-
cans that Henry Clay Evans merely carried
out Clcveland's policy. The Democrats
will say that Cleveland was no Democrat
He did not carry out the Democratic policy
but his own policy, and that the Republi :

EVERY time a man makes AN improve
ment in guns-bg or small there is n
loud proclamation that now war is to be
made 50 deadly that it will become i'm
possible. Probably the old Greeks and
Romans talked just about that way when
they heightened a spear foot or more. or
got up little better bow This is par
ticularly true of improvements in heavy
artillery. Every year or two we have guns
brought out which are going TO simply
sweep AN enemy off the face of the earth.
At the beginning of the South African war
the English, with their lyddte shells were
going TO eXterminate the Beers at sight.
while the Beers, with their latest improved
Krupr guns manned by highly trained
German artillerymen, were going to do
similar irresistibly awful things to the
British. We are now beginning TO get
through the newspaper Mysteries about the
awful havoc" and come down to facts.
Beers surrounded Ladysmith, with their
best artillery and artillerymen, and at close
range threw about three tons of shells
daily into the little town. Altogether.
they fired over 1900 shells into the town
and garrison. Yet the total loss was
only 35 men killed by all missiles, and
1SS wounded.

ACCORDING to VorWGcrts. the organ of
the German Socialists, Baron Won Rhein-
haben, the Prussian Minister of the
Interior. is the Henry Clay Evans of Ger
many. The German Diet passes laws re-
garding American foodstuffs, and the
State Department makes treaties with
ours, purporting to be in the interest of
fair trade, but Baron Won Rheinhaben
issues secret instructions to the men
charged with carrying out the laws and
treaties which put an entirely different
construction upon them. This is done III

who want to get rid of American com
petition. No matter how clearly our ship
pers may show that our pork is free from
trichinae. our fruits from scale diseases.
etc, the German customs officials and other

Henry Clay Evans's subordinates must
find frauds in pension claims.
