1t is notice to all the world that we
no longer worship in the Temple Of

1t may be doubted II Republican
leaders generally are aware how great
the detection from President Nc
kinley and how many men who sup
ported him heartily four years ago alb
solutely refuse TO support him now
and will not vote for him in Novem-
Der. These men may not all vote for
Bryan; some of them will not; but
they are irrevocably opposed to Nc
Kinley. This number included n few
who have been in the habit Of regular.
~ voting the Republican ticket but
still more noticcably it includes nearly
all the so-called Gold Democrats of
four years ago and the Independents.
Once in n while an Independent is
found who still stands by Mckinley,
largely because he cannot support
Bryan or stand on the Chicago plat
form, but these are few. As yet they
have not been much Heard from. but
when the campaign opens there will
be ample announcements on the sub
ject. The places where Mckinley has
lost ground are his Imperialism. his
wabbling and shifting policy toward
Porto Rico, his disposition to allow
Hanna and other leaders to mark out
his line Of policy, and his indsposition
or inability, or both, to have mind
of his own and to act accordingly. A
Connecticut man the other day wittily
likened McKinleys mind to a bed, be-
cause it has to be made up for him
every time he wants to use it. 1t is
not creditable to the President of the
United States that there should be
such condition of things mt the head
of the Administration, hut such is the
fact, and this accounts for the reaction
In public feeling and the falling away
OF so large portion of his former sup
port. \ few leading men have already
indicated their action. but when the
campaign opens there will be a gen.
eral announcement of the position of
the different forces. 1t looks now as
though the detection from Mckinley
would be as surprising as was the de-
lection from the Democratic candidate
four years ago. The feeling seems to
be that President Mckinley is a fail
ure, and that the people were deceived
in their measure of the man.-Law-

beginning the Kipling snake story,
be it told that last year more than
$4,000 of fellow subjects in India lost

A COAT WHICH GREW.
The Story of Clever Prisoners Plan
for ESCAPE,

Green Casey, convict at San Quen-
TIN, has won the admiration of all his
tellow-convicts at the prison for the
novel continuance he has invented in
order to make his escape from the
prison walls some time ago. and
through Sheriff Langdon, of Santa
|aClara county, the story has leaked
out.
Casey was a kind of trusty around
the prison grounds, and while work.
FInS in one of the grounds in the
vicinity Of the prison he took it into
his head that he would like to escape.
and was beginning to tax his mind as
10 the most advantageous way to suit
his purpose. As he was strOlling
around on the green grass. which
grows in abundance around the prison
an idea struck him that if he could
Initiate the grass by some means he
could elude the watchful sentries and
make good his escape.
Through the aid Of his convict
friends he procured some pieces of
burlap, and with the aid of some rome
made them into long coat that would
cover him completely when lying on
the grass. He then secured some
wheat from the prison stable. and

lie cast it down carelessly at one end
OF the prison grounds and natered it
daily. In a few weeks the grass grew
up through the sack coat, and before
1 a great while the piece of burlap was
conformed into a grassy lawn.
He was now ready to carry out his
plans and patiently awaited an op-
portunity. At last he succeeded In
getting his new contrivance across
to the northwest of the prison, and in
a few minutes waG under his grassy
coat
Slowly he crepG along with the

appearance success would crown his
efforts. But his progress was too
rapid, and very soon he heard foot.
steps coming in his direction. The
moving grass plot, which was slowly
making its way up the hillside, soon
came to a sudden standstill as the
eye Of guard had noticed the grass
moving and came to investigate the
phenomenon. A kick in the ribs ap-
prised Casey that his plan had been
discovered. The guard took Casey,

Yes, the Islands are "Pacified!"

These reports of continued and
widespread bushwhacking hostilities
in the Philippines read curiously now
that the islands have been "pacitied."
Gen. Young, in command of northern
Luzon, wants reinforcements, and so
does Gen. Bates, in command of south
ern Luzon-both saying that their
forces are inadequate to hold the
towns which have been captured or
keep down the insurrectionist bands.
Adjt-Gen. Corbin at Washington ad.
mits that this is about the situation
out there, but says there are troops
enough around Manila to supply the
needs of Gems. Young and Bates. Still
it is to be noticed that some of the
reported fighting had been taking
place within five miles of Manila. The
fact of the matter seems to be that
