The Railroad Hog.

The railroad hog differs somewhat
from the ordinary porous in physical con-
formation and also in the fact that among
civilized people his flesh is not consider
eel edible. Otherwise, the variation be-
tween the two species is hardly worth
mentioning.
There is one popularity, however, about
the r. h., which is that at first glance he
might actually be mistaken for a man,
but on the slightest observation such an
illusion is quickly dispelled.
Riding on a crowded train not long
ago, the writer noticed a perfect speci-
men of the genus. He occupied an entire
seat himself, sitting next the window, out
of which he continuously gazed with a
look of abstraction on his porcine fea-
lures, although it was SO dark outside
that nothing could be seen, while in the
other half of the seat was piled his bag
gage, which seemed To be very precious
TO him and which he never offered
to move, although every other seat in the
car was occupied. People were coming
into the coach at every stopping place
up their seats to ladies and perching
themselves on the coal boxes and arms
of seats, standing in the aisles or hanging
to the door knobs, yet this in nowise in
terested nor attracted the attention of
the specimen of the genus sus that sat
gazing out of the window into the black
ness of the night, never Offering to re-
move his precious baggage nor to permit
lady or gentleman TO occupy a seat by
his side. 1t is possible, of course, that
he did not like to come in contact with
men and women and that he was patient
ly looking for another of his kind with
whom he might share his seat. Fortu
nately the species is not abundant; per
feet specimens like this one are so rare
that they must feel lonesome indeed.
Come to think of it, the railroad hog
may not be responsible for his dispo-
sition. Likely, like other hogs, he will
be hog whether in railroad car, par
lor, dining room or elsewhere. He
was born hog and cannot help being a

THE republican nominees are now all
before the people. They are ideal candi-
dates, from president to coroner. Now
let the members of the party forget any
factional differences that may exist and
proceed to carry on just such campaign
as they would do if democracy had a
show of success. Over confidence is
always dangerous and it looks as though
it was about the only danger to the re-
publican party this year.

While the administration has been
severely criticised by its enemies for the

every action. President Mckinley, ably

so directed affairs that American diplo-
