ESTIMATES.
(PiLtshnrr post.N

Two New York papers of opposite
politics printed their estimates yestcr
day of expected presidential results
after extended clnvassing. The Fri
bune" claims 30S votes for Mckinley
and Il for Bryan. 1t puts down COL
orado. Missouri. Nebraska ana Ne
Nada as doubtful. More moderate is
the estimate of the Journal. II
gives Bryan ta7 votes Mckinley 1873
and places III votes in the doubtful
column. from which Bryan will secure
the u votes necessarily 10 his election.

The Iowa State Register throws
light on Republican apathy in that
State when it says:
The Republican stay-at-home vote
in the Seventh district last year was
bad cnough-5,9l6 votes when com
pared with the vote of 1896. or an aver
age of 81 votes TO the prccinct-but,
unless the feeling of apathy disap-
pears and the voters turn out to reg
lister and vote, the showing this year
Will be worse STILL"
~ Presidential year that falls behind
an off year in it's vote is apathetic all
right.

WHAT WILL THE TELEPHONE
COMMITTEE DO ABOU L IT?

The Telephone Committee of the City
Councils addressed letter to the Bell
Telephone Company asking a series of
questions After waiting n month the
Bell Telephone Company appeared by
counsel and declined to answer the
questions but asked further delay that
a personal representative might come on
from New York to explain the com
pany's advance in rates. a fortnight
was granted it and General Manager
Wilson appeared before the committee
and talked at some length. but declined
TO supply the data necessary for the
committee to determine whether the
advance in rates was a business ncccs-
sity or whethar IL was Il purely arb-
trary move on the part of the Bell
Company.
More than week has elapsed since
that hearing. The committee has had
another session and has done nothing
ii is to meet again on Saturday. Does
it propose to still do nothing? The
facts are all before the committee, so
far as it is going to get them. 1t is
not waiting for further light or infor-
mation. What is it waiting for? 1t is
composed of an odd number OF mem
Eers and cannot be tleadlocked. 1t was
named to make n report 10 City Coun-
ellis, giving It's findings When docs It
propose to do this. or is it the aim of a
majority OF the committee 10 tie the
matter up indefinitely by declining to
report at all? That would hc TO the
exact liking OF the Eel Telephone Com
pany; hut does ,hr majority of the
committee con: idcr that as public
body ii can SO perform its duty?

Who Are the best HlstOriansH

II the English, German and American
historical scholars should vote as to who
were the two best historians, have little
doubt that Thucyddes and Tacitus would
have pretty large majority, says James
Ford Rhodes in Atlantic. II they were
asked to name a third choice, it would
undoubtedly lie between Herodotus and
Gibbon. At the meeting of this associa-
ton in Cleveland, when methods Of his
torical teaching were under discussion,
Herodotus and Thucydides, but no 9TH
ers, were mentioned as proper object les
sons.
"What are the merits Of Herodotus?
Accuracy in details, as we understand 1t,
was certainly not one of them. Neither
does he sft critically his facts, but inti-
mates that he will not make positive
decision in the case of conflicting testi-
mony. "For. myself" he wrote, my
duty is to report all that is said. but
am not obliged to believe it all alike,
remark which may be understood to ap-
ply to my whole history" He had none
of the wholesome skcpticism which we
deem necessary in the weighing Of his
torical evidence. On the contrary, he Is
frequently accused of credulity.
Nevertheless Percy Gardner calls his
narrative nobler than that of Thucydides,
and Mahatfy terms it an "incomparable
history 1.-THE truth is," wrote Macau-
lay in his diary, when he was 40 years
old, 81 admire no historians much. -ex-

SOMETIMES REQUEST 1T.
Men Are Actually Learning to Ask
to Have Their Lives Insured.

Life insurance is q commodity that Is
at last sought for to some extent. 1t is
years since its utility has been question.
cd. but the peculiar fact has nevertheless
remained that though one Of the greatest
Of modern essentials and so conceded by
all sane men, yet its acceptance by the in.
dividua needing it has been due wholly
to the personal solicitation of those hav.
ing it for sale.
OF late years, however insurants have
come to the point where they not infre-
quently seek the indemnity themselves,
or at least send for agents of leading
companies and announce that they wish
to take out policies. This is marked and
important step in the history of life un-
derwrting, though why it should not al
ways have been the case is one of the cur
rosities of human thought. Why a man
should hasten to insure his warehouse,
which will probably never burn, and yet
have to be importuned to insure his life,
which in due time he knows he must Ger.
tainly lose, is an oddity Of the human
mind that has ever been n puzzle to the
student Of insurance. But such is still
the case today despite the fact noted that
some men. ADLER and shrewder than their
fellows. have at last learned to ask the
privilege of being insured.
or the hundreds Of millions of new in
surance issued during the past year prob
ably less than 5 per cent was requested
by the insurants themselves. The rest
will have been due wholly to the men
who drew the new policy holders atten-
tion to the value OF insurance and stuck
to them until they made them under
stand and believe it. However, 5 per
cent of inherent shrewd sense, Of know
ing what is needed and sending for it, is
perhaps good average for mankind as
whole in anything. CONNER.

Senator Vest and the stolen Pigs.

A story that Senator Vest once told re-
lated to his candidacy for the legislature
in 1861 against a. 5. Walker. The can
vass was exceedingly exciting because Of
the near approach Of war, and all the
questions incident to it were discussed
with much animation. Charges and coun-
terchargcs were made. Both sides knew
that about six votes either way would
determine the contest, and on the day be-
fore election Walker raised the point on
Vest that he had stolen some pigs. The
only way that Vest could meet the charge
was to acknowledge smlingy that he
had the pigs in his pen and in his possess
sion. If he had gone further and said
that he had bought them-which they
hoped he would do--they had witnesses to
show that he had not bought them, but
Vest was too shrewd to be caught in the
trap and turned the accusation off with
laugh and the remark:
"One cant account for the way his
boys get pigs."-St. Louis Republic.

SHOOTING SPIES.
The Task Ii . Revolving One to the
Soldiers,

0Olutef0s
One of the most unpleasant and revolt
ing duties which a soldier on active serv-
Ice 10 called upon to perform Is that Of
shooting such spies Us either by attempt
Ing to escape or In any way guilty Of
breaking their parole merit that fate and
there Is not 6 soldier in the army who
does not dread being called upon to form
one of firing party for an execution.
For it is one thing to slay and kill in
battle when their blood Is up and the
lust of the fight Is upon them and diff
ferent one to take away the life of fell
low creature in cold blood. In these lat
ter days.. however, much has been done
to mitigate the horror of the task, but
even then an execution remains most
impressive spectacle. and necessarily so,
for the shooting Of one spy has usually
salutary effect on others as yet uncap-
tured.
The manner in which one of these exc
cutiops is carried out in the British army
Is as follows: A spy condemned for his
offenses to be shot is surrounded by de-
tachment Of infantry, and after he has
been provided with pick and shovel he
is marched off to selected spot, there to
carry out what is perhaps the most terri
bic task any person can be called upon to
perform-to dig his own grave.
This done his tools are taken from him
and his eyes bandaged for the last act Of
the awful drama. The attending chap.
lain now commences to read portions Of
the burial service, and from the ranks Of
the escort IL men are picked at random
by the officer In charge. These men. hay
ing stacked their own rifles, are led to
where II other weapons are awaiting
them. six of which are loaded with blank
cartridges and the remainder with ball.
and one of these is handed to each man,
so that none knows whether the rife he
holds is loaded with ball or not, and none
can say for certain that the shot which
killed the prisoner was fired by him.
The firing party then marches up to Its
appointed position. The successive COM
mands, present" "Fire!" are given, and
scarcely has the last word died away be-
fore volley rings out and the unhappy
spy falls lifeless into his newly dug
grave.
Nearly every man Is more or less af-
fected on Being selected to form one of
the actual firing party, and many men
have been known to faint right away on
being singled out, while others have been
SO overcome with emotion that they have
scarcely been able to pull the triggers of
their rifles.-Irsh Independent.
