CONGRESSMAN OTEY A POET.

Congressman Otey, of Virginia, in
a speech before the House of Repre-
sehtatives recently displayed much
adeptness in delivering himself of
quotations. He composed a parody y
on our national hymn which begins
MY country, it's of thee,
Land Of plutocracy,
For thee l moan"
and compared the goldbug to Napo-
leon as devastator of the. earth.
"Feared by friends, dispised 6y foes"
"a desolator desolate,
A victor overthrown;
The arbter OF Others fate.
A suppliant OF his own"
In his peroration Mr.. Otey con-
tinuing the comparison, declared that
the effects of the passage of the cur
rency bill would be "millions of des-
olate homes, of sighing widows, and
weeping orphans" and then referred
to the national bankers as follows:
"But where is he, the modern, mightier-
far,
Who born no king, makes monarchs
draw his car;
Whose game was empires and whose
stakes were thrones,
Whose table earth, whose dice were hu-
man bones f'

Rise I'm the Price of Oil.

The Standard Oil Company's so
per cent dividends and the increased
price of oil are criticised by the New
York World as follows:
"Less than year ago every work
man in the country could buy oil for
his lamps at 8 cents gallon in cans.
The Standard Oil Company has since
successfully raised the price to IL
cents, and it now sends out as a val
entine to consumers a card announcing
the addition Of another cent per gal
lon on February IA. This is an ad-
vance of 5 cents gallon, 623 per
cent, within less than year.
The Standard Oil Company last
year paid so per cent dividends on a
largely fictitious capitalization of
$1O0,000,O00. With such profits to
the good it has certainly no excuse
for increasing the price of its COM
modify by 62i per cent. But to the
question. 'What is the reason p the
answer is easy and obvious. The
Standard Oil Company enjoys a mo-
nopoly worse and more oppressive
than any ever granted by the Tudors
in England's more despotic time %

JAMES BARRON HOPE.

The Conservative Revieoc for March.
1900, has rich and varied table of
contents, aud not the least in interest
is sketch of James Barron Hope
and review of his poetical work bv
his daughter, Mrs. Janey Hope Marr.
His was mind richly endowed with
that indefinable afllatus that finds
adequate expression only in the high
est poetic form and spurns the sense
less Jingle aud rhyme so pleasing to
the vulgar ear. His scholarship was
rich and varied, and he wrote only
for the scholarly and cultured. His
genius found enthusiastic expression
on all subjects relating to Virginia
and the South. What can be nohler
than the following from the "Lee
Memorial Ode:"
He triumphed and he did not die =
No funeral bells are tolled--
But on that day in Lexington
Fame came herself 10 hold
His stirrups while he mounted
To ride down the streets of gold.
Mrs. Marr would have failed in
duty had she not said, "1is genius
had lowered not out of opulence, or
congenial occupation, but out of the
treadmill of newspaper life. This
fact adds immensely to the merit of
his work.-IadeT-A 4 Appcal.

THE PACE THAT KILLS.

Almost every year some member
of the diplomatic circle in Paris or
London, and, indeed, for that matter
in almost every large capital of the
world, either dies or becomes phys
ical wreck as result Of the nerve
tearing pace made necessary by the
observance of the endless social re-
quirements of their high position.
This is particularly true of Paris and
London, but prominent member of
the embassy in the latter CITY de-
clares that he found the social life of
Washington the most trying in his
long diplomatic career. "The social
part of the American Government" !"
said the gentleman, who, by the way,
belongs to the Russian nobility, "Is
carried to unusual excess. 1t taxes
strong men to great degree, and
members of the sex have more than
once proved victims to the pace that
kills, and it is sheerest folly for wo-
men, who are naturally less strong
and have less nerve power, to imag-
inc they can stand the constant
round of luncheons, dinners and dan
ces without sacrificing their health,
and losing that, to cease to be the
vivacious, charming women who have
won the plaudits of men of all coun-
tries. And there is reason to believe
all this gentleman says, for it is re-
ported in London that at this very
moment a number of Washington's
most prominent women are banding
themselves together for the purpose
of modifying the social exactions
that even the most richly endowed
among them ale forced to confess
are more than they care to stand.
The report has not been without eff
feet here, and already the wives of
some of the high officials talk of
forming similar league with the
same object in view.-London Paper.
