InharmOniOuS POpulistS.

WASHINGTON, June 26.-There is
rather curious collection of populists in
the senate, and the development during
the closing days of the session were es-
pecially interesting. Pettigrew, who was
once republican and then a silver re-
publican, but is now bona fide popu1ist,
and Allen, who was populist ever since
that party assumed a leading place in
Nebraska politics, are bitter enemies.
There has always been just little bad
blood between Pettigrew and Allen
Both being more or less demagogic in
their natures, they naturally clash for the
position of the most disagreeable man in
the senate. Pettigrew has easily won
that distinction. But the real fight was
at the Sioux Falls convention, when Pet
tigrew and Butler combined to force the
nomination of Charlie Towne upon the
populists over the remonstrance of Allen,
who claimed to be the direct representa-
tive of Bryan in the populist party.
There have been several little occurrences
since the populist party convention
which show the enmity these two men
have for each other. Allen has given
forth some very strong expressions in
commenting upon Pettigrew.
Then there is another breach between
Harris and Butler. They have no use for
each other at all, and while they have
not said very much in the senate, several
things have occurred in the various pop
ulist conventions outside which indicate
that these two men would politically
knife each other on very slight provica.
ton. 1t SO happens out of all this that
Pettigrew and Butler flock together
Butler is absolutely dominated by Petit
grew, and will do anything the South
Dekota man wants, Harris and Aller
are naturally close together by force O
circumstances, although Allen is the
kind of man that makes no lasting
friendships. Heitfelt and Turner are also
close together, but have no particula
relationship with the other populists
Turner himselfis more of democrat thar

The performance at The Metropolitan
Opera House for the benefit of the fami-
les Of the volunteers who fell in the war
with Spain, in which many business men
were interested, was a most creditable af-
fair, and netted not far from $500, says
The New York Commercial. An artistic
performance was the aria and duo from
The third act of aida" by William T.
Stewart and Effie Stewart. The slight mis-
calculation at the close Of this number,
by which Miss Stewart fell outside the
curtain added little to the amusement
of the occasion Miss Stewart got out of
the accident gracefully, and enjoyed it
with the rest
The incident stirred some of the pro-
fessionals to relating Interesting reminis-
cences of her stage mlshaps. Miss Ora
c'e Beebe, who has made a hit with
Never Paint the Devil on the Wall ;"
tcld an interesting story of a certain lady
in Halifax who was stage-struck, and
who, by dint of perseverance succeeded
in obtaining the part Of the ingenue in
the curtain-raiser, which preceded the
drama Beyond the fact that she was
totally inaudiblt, and Interestingly nerv-
Gus, she was all right but there was
worse to follow. AS a bonnie bouche, it
was announced that at the close of the
entertainment she would recite the sleep
walking scene from Macbeth. The stage
was dsrkened and presently weird fig
ure clad In a sheet, appeared. 1t ap-
rroached the footlights, and it's lips were
observed to move but no sound reached
the hushed expectant audience. Suddenly
a hoarse, ghouish cry rent the air. "Out,
damned spot!'-pause "Out, damned
spotw prolonged pause. 'fOut, damned
spotw-desd silence. broken only by the
shutting of feet and some tittering in the
audience. ooh, I'm so sorry I've forgot
ten it," exclaimed the lady, but if you'll
come again tomorrow I'll learn IL up
and see what becomes of the Id spot!'

Sergeant Mckinley.

On Decoration Day, for the first time
President Mckinley revisited the battle
field of Antietam where, thirty-eight
years before, a commissary sergeant Of
the Twenty-third Ohio, he served hot
line when the fighting was in progress,
says the Chicago Journal. Secretary Root
referred briefly to this incident in his
speech. But he did not tell the whole
story. He could not have told II all If
he depended upon the President for the
recollection. "Sergt." Mckinney has
never had much to say about 1t. There
were details which added to the conspicu-
BUSINESS of the act, and they are not OBJ
tainable from the chief actor. In that
part of the field where Burnside first
pushed back the Confederate right and
then swung around to meet Hill is a tab
let. 1t marks the location of the Kanawha
Brigade, of which the Twenty-third Ohio
was part that day. From the early
morning hasco at the stone bridge to the
advance upon the Confederate right, the
brigade had marched and fought. Hun
cry and faint, the troops were still in
line confronting Hills fresh arrivals,
when suddenly a great shout went up
There, under fire, with a team of mules
and wagon was a boy commissary ser-
geant, dealing out hot coffee. Two miles
In the rear he had pressed into service
some straggiers, had made cans of hot
coffee and had cooked meat. He had
loaded two wagons and started for the
front to find and feed his regiment
Again and again he was ordered to the
rear. One team was disabled. The youth
full sergeant kept on, unheeding the bull

fee and meat and hard tack to the place
where it would do the most good The

pollte conauetor. Of one south.

During a recent visit to a Southern city,
where bobtail car was under the charge
of a driver, a Chicago young woman
walked to the box. deposited her fare and
asked the driver to stop at Prytania
street. says the Chicago Chronicle. After
a ten-minute ride the driver checked his
horse, put on the brake, walked down the
car until he stood in front of the stranger,
and, lifting his hat. said: Madam this
is Prytania street, where you wish to get
off,"
Some few days later a tremendous rain
storm flooded the streets and cutters This
same young woman, used 20 storms and
blizzards, was not to be outdone, and
went about her visiting regardless. Be-
fore the hotel system of boards enabled
her to reach the car in safety, but, arriv-
ed at her destination, she beheld streams
and puddles grouped together like a great
chain of lakes. She pulled the strap,
stopped the car, and on reaching the step
at the rear found the driver ready to as
sist her. Without any hesitancy he
picked her up, carried her across. the
puddle and, placing her on the sidewalk
bowed profoundly as he lifted his hat,
jumped in the car and was off.
Thus he proved that chivalry was not
yet extinct and that man may be both
gentleman and a street car driver. And
all ehis happened in New Orleans about a
month ago
Comparisons are not always odius, but

Chicago is well known TO city people.

step lively, therer'- Sometimes he hur-

one of the endless questions about loca-
tons and streets that bore him unto ex-

Though rapid transit in an active and
bustling city will not admit of the cour-
tesy and gallantry of slow-going New Or
leans, 1t is to be hoped there may yet be
a marked Improvement in the street car
service. Some readers may recall the ac-

A DOUBTFUL STATE.

Senator Hanna and other Republican
leaders are reported to be worried about
New York The political situation there
the Democrats of the state are getting to-
gether and will present a solid front to
their opponents. 1t is expected that Gov
Roosevelt will be renominated but there
is no reason to think that he will poll as
large a vote as he did two years ago
Then his military reputation, made in
Cuba, helped him. He had also a reputa-
ton as a reformer who could not be turned
from his purpose by a political boss
Neither reputation a vote getter, is
quite so valuable now as It was. And
when he was eletced Governor his major
ity was not so large as to make him feel
that he was invincible. In fact, if the
Democrats had no. made some stupid
bIunders he would have been beaten,
probably.
And this IS the Time for New York to
For many years its electoral vote has gone
alternately TO the Republican and. Demo-
cratic parties. And the Republican lead
ers think there are signs that it will go to
the Democratic ticket this year. 1t looks
now as IL Mr.. Croker would direct the
party during the campaign. He win spare
no effort to win. II he had not felt reas-
onably certain that the Democrats would
carry the state 1t is doubtful IL he would
have come out so squarely and emphat-
ically for Mr. Bryan. He does not like
some OF Mr.. Bryans opinions, but he has
put aside his objections to him and will do
all that il is possible to do to give him
the electoral vote of New York.
The hope of the, Repu blicans is that the
great financial interests of New York city
are in sympathy with them. But that
fact may do the Republicans more harm
than good. 1t will be pointed out that
the plutocrats. and the trusts are arrayed
against the poor. That will help to give
the vote of the toi.ing masses to the Dem
ocrats. Even the money of the p.utocrats
may not be sufficient to stem the tide, if
1t once begins to run strongly against the
Republican party. The Republican lead
ers have reason to feel anxious.

MIR. nRYAN,s ISSUE.

1t makes no difference whether the
Eastern Democrats succeed or not in
keeping the money question in the b1ck-
ground in the platform that will be adopt
ed by the Democratic National, Conven-
ton, Mr.. Bryan will give it, in all prob
ability, the most prominent place in the
campaign. He has no intention OF side
tracking II. In an article in the June
number of the North American Review,
entitled, 1.-The Issues Of the Presidential
Campaign" he gives the money question
the leading place. He not only gives IL
the leading place, but he insists upon the
ratio of 16 10 / in the free and unlimited
coinage of silver On this point he says:
1T Is needless to discuss the ratio, since
there is no diversion of sentiment among
those who are actually trying 10 secure
bimetallism There is positive, earnest
and active force behind the present legal
ratio of 16 to /; there is no positive. earn
est or active force behind any other ra-
ito. Neither is it any longer necessary
to discuss international bimetallism. The
contest upon this question must he be-
tween those who believe In the gold
standard on the one side and on the
other side, those who believe in financial
policy made by the American people for
themselves"
At a meeting of prominent Democrats
in New York city, day or two ago, il was
stated by one who pretended to speak for
those who will likely shape the Demo-
cratic National pla tform, that he money
question would not be given a great deal
of prominence, and that it was probable
that no mention would be made Of a ra-
ito in connection with silver. 1t is evil
dent from Mr. Bryan's article in the
North American Review, that he is not
a party to any agreement to give silver
an obscure place in the platform. He is
as determined to make silver a leading
Issue, il not the great issue, Of the cam
paign, as he was In 1896.
And he is wise in taking that position.
If silver should be given the cold shoulder
by the Democrats, the Populists would be
offended. They would give Mr.. Bryan only
a lukewarm support, or they would sup
port Mr.. Barker, the Middle-of-the-Road
Populist candidate for President. Mr..
Barker is boasting that he will get 1000
900 votes. He knows he win not get any
thing like that number unless the Demo
Gratis make a mistake. 1t is clearly
the intention of Mr.. Bryan that they
shall not show any lack of appreciation
for silver. He knows that the Demo-
cratic ticket would lose more votes by
dropping silver than by making 1t the
leading issue Of the campaign. He Is
certain of being nominated and his party
has every reason to believe that he WI
give mere prominence to silver than TO
any other issue. If they ever had
doubt about it. the North American Re-
view article removes the doubt.
