is an advocate Of the principles of
total abstinence; he does not are for
liquor, and during all his long politi-
cal career, has refrained from indul-
gence. He believes he is better with
out 1t. His health has always been of
the best, and he frequently has said to
his friends that he attributes the fact
to temperance habits and a good con-
science. He is a great believer in
work, and when it comes to the "stren-
uous life" he can give Teddy Roosevelt
postgraduate instruction.
Whatever he may be as a president
or a public man, Mr.. Mckinley in his
home life is not only beyond criticism
but he is beyond praise. His devotion
to Mrs. Mckinley, the tenderness and
care which places her happiness even
before the weightiest affairs of the ma
ton, are matters too sacred for the
gaze Of the public. Even though this
little home has been in the white house
its privacy has not been violated.
During other administrations there
has been tittle-tattle, and the yellow
journals have exploited the secrets of
scullery and boudoir. But If any pry-
ing Tom has intruded himself into the
Mckinley household he has found his
rebuke in what he saw, ano has been
discouraged from further effort in the
same direction. Behind the folding
doors which cut off the office from the
living apartments, the president be-
comes the husband and the lover, his
only thought being for the comfort
and happiness of his invalid wife.
Here are the few intimate friends
not the politicians or officials with
whom he has daily intercourse, and
who are members of his executive and
official family. The hospitality is un-
affected, the amusements simple, and
all is imbued with a spirit Of harmony
and peace.
THE members of President McKin-
ley's religious persuasion and the re-
formers of various stripes who are get
ting, if not seeking, a cheap notoriety
by their willingness % stand sponsor
for the most absurd Of ISLANDERS, are in
a way to bring discredit on themselves
and their by attacks upon the
private character Of Mr.. Mckinley.
The whitest light will disclose nothing
in that quarter that is not to his
credit.

BRYAN's POLICY OF RETREAT.

BRYAN'S POLICY OF RETREAT.
IF elected l shall convene congress
in extraordinary session as soon as
inaugurated, and recommend an i'm
mediate declaration of the nations
purpose-irst, to establish a stable
form of government in the Philippine
Islands, just as we are now establish
ing a stable form Of government in
Cuba; second, to give independence to
the Filipinos. just as we have promised
to give independence to Cuba; third, to
protect the Filipinos from outside in
reference while they work out their
destiny, just as we have protected the
republics of Central and South Amer
lea, and r by the Monroe doctrine
pledged to protect Cuba."-Mr. Bryan's
speech of acceptance.
MI. Bryan's unqualified declaration,
made at Indianapolis, mean that if he
is elected the congress also chosen this
fall will be convened in extraordinary
session by the middle of the coming
March. IN all probability the party
that elects the president will also get
the house of representatives.
What would it mean to have Mr..
Bryan in the White House and a con-
gress, at least in part democratic, sit
ting less than seven months hence?
That is a possible condition to which
the serious attention Of the American
people may well be invited at once.
Mr.. Bryan has raised an issue sufa-
GENTLY momentous to command earn
est thought.
Mr.. Bryan will summon congress and
ask it to declare u purpose ito give
them (the Philippines) independence
and guard them against molestation
from without"
That NEAR the withdrawal of GU,
army and authority from the Philip.
pine Islands.
That means the maintenance in
Philippines waters of a fleet suficien,
to prevent Germany, France, Great
Britain, Japan, Russia, and any Other
nation from interfering with them.
To what international complications
might not such a relationship lead?
For three-quarters of a century,
says MI. Bryan, "the Monroe doctrine
has been a shield to neighboring re.
publics. and yet it has imposed no pc
cuniary burden upon U.s."
The republics are on the same hem,
isphere with us. The other nation.
are across the ocean. Mr. Bryan pro
poses that we shall cross tine ocean t.
the hemisphere where the other ma
tons are at home and where we shall
have no footing whatever after tn,
recognition Of the Philippine independ
ence; that we shall undertake to up
hold a republic there against all neigh,
boring nations.
And to put this revolutionary polio,
in operation the earlier he will call al
extraordinary session OF congress mex
March!
Can the thoughtful citizen measur,
the disturbing influence of congress il
session to proclaim such a word policy
as Mr.. Bryan pledges himself to inau
gurate?

the administration for its neutrality as
to the South African war. Interna-
tional law and history are cited to
show that the administration pursued
the only course it could have taken
without becoming involved in serious
and even dangerous complications.
Our questions the speaker regarded as
sufficiently engrossing without the cd
dition of the dispute between Great
Britain and the Beers. The course of
the United States in China he COM
mends, and there will be few dissent
ing voices on that score. Certainly
we had the right to join with the other
powers in the rescue of the beleag-
uered ministers, our own among them,
and surely we would have been a
craven among the nations if we had
done less. The policy he would urge
as between the United States and
China would be this: The rescue of
American citizens; indemnity for all
injury to persons or property; the OBJ
servance of all treaties and the open
door" forever. He would favor no at
tempt to acquire Chinese territory or
a sphere of influence, mol would he
have this government countenance the
Acknowledgement of China. He looks
hopefully for a regeneration of China
as the result of present troubles, and
believes it will come to pass, not by
the partition of the empire, but by it's
entry into commercial relations with
the other nations of the world. And
when that contamination is reached
the United States will be the chief ben
ficiary.
LAS to the declarations Of the demo-
cratic platform and of Mr.. Bryan in
regard to the Philippines, Senator
Davis says: What right has the
United States to establish any govern
ment, stable or unstable, in the Phil
tppines, if these declarations are true?'
Yet Mr.. Bryan says he would do that
very thing. Mr.. Bryan's plan of a
protectorate, he declares, would be a
perilous perversion of the Monroe doc
trine.
Coming to the consent of the gov
erned,' Senator Davis quotes Tillman
as to the shooting of negroes and the
stuf1ng of ballot boxes; cites the con-
%stitution of Mississippi and the recent
ly adopted amendment to the constitu-
ton OF North Carolina. Very few
words are given to Imperialism. A
nation OF 100000 of free people, vast
In extent, need have no fear,' said Sem
ator Davis, that an empire will ha
erected upon the ruins of the republic
by the scattered forces of an army of
lOO,OOO men, And in conclusion he
said: If the existence of the republican
party. should be closed today its history
would be that of the union saved. Of a
protective system under which the
united States has become the greatest
manufacturing nation in the world, Of
a general industrial development which
sustains 100000 Of people, Of a fin
ancial system which has created an
unimpeachable credit, of all the bless
1ngs which civilization can confer nm
on humanity"

erage by longer throw OF the cranks
during the forward and downward
movement. It is easy to understand
that the longer the cranks the greater
the force which can be exerted in the
propulsion of the wheel, but with
the increase in length of the crank
comes the disadvantage of compelling
the feet to travel in a larger, circle,
which stretches and doubles UP the leg
of the rider beyond the point of com
fort. With the new apparatus provis-
ion is made for. increased leverage
where 1t can be used to advantage,
and the throw is reduced to a mini.

the circuit where no leverage can be
applied, Each crank is mounted in a
tube attached to the crank shaft ana
at the outer end of the cranks are
pairs of wheels which travel around
the rings attached to the frame, thus
guiding the cranks. in and out of the
tubes. It will be seen by a, glance at
the picture that the pedals are farther

Professor Frederick 81 Lee. Of Co:
lumlbia. " University, gave talk recent
lys before the geological section Of the
American Association for the Ad-
vancement Of Science on the suspected
relation between sugar and muscular
fatigue. He has been trying some ex-
per1mllents to obtain light on the sub
Ject. It has been shown that a muscle
can pc more readily stimulated to cons
tract when it is fresh than when it Is
tired. A. series of tests have been
made to ascertain the. quickness and
extent OF the contractions under the
two sets Of conditions. Now, there is
a drug, phlorhizin, which is believed to
have the effect Of removing from a
muscle any sugar that may be slowed
away there. Professor Lee said that
if he administered doses Of this drug
to. cat which had previously been
experimental with the muscles would
become exactly as II they were tired.
They would not respond so promptly
nor so heartily to artificial stimulus.
Fasting animals were put under the
influence of this drug, were then killed
and the contractive power Of the mus
cles was then tested, and they were
found to have a contractile power
much less than normal, and in this re-
spect resembled muscles in a pro-
nounced state of fatigue. This result
was probably due to the removal of
carbohydrate from the muscles rather
than to- a mysterious specific action of
the drug. This conclusion. was
strengthened by another experiment.
A fasting animal was given a dose OF
phlorhizin, kept eight hours, fed on
dextrine Ga form of sugar. and killed
eight hours later. The muscles were
now stimulated again, and responded
almost as quickly as If they had not
been drugged. +: : j. -
These investigations seem to prove
the value of sugar as food for such
persons as are engaged in physical la
Dor. The matter has also received
much attention in Germany, where the
beet sugar producers are trying to find
a market for their surplus. It has
been shown that fatigued muscle
RECEIVERS it's activity more quickly it
sugar is eaten freely, than it will with
out that aid. 1t is therefore proposed
to introduce sugar into the German
army ration as a regular feature Pro-
fessor Lee referred to the sending Of
candy to the American army in the
Philippines, and said that probably it
was good thing for men engaged, in
active pursuits. This would seem to
be equally true Of farmers. A few
Jumps of sugar carried in the pocket
would serve sometimes temporarily
to restore strength when a full meal
and rest were not obtainable.

A number Of war kites were taken

Quartz Thermometer.

M. Dutour gives an account to the
Academic des Sciences of series of
experiments which he has made re-
garding the use of quartz for ther-
mometers and other instruments. AS
quartz may be scftened in the oxyhy-
drogen blowpipe, and may then be
worked like glass, he was able to make
tubes OF quartz, and afterward ther-
mometers of the same material. 2 In
these the reservoir is of quartz and
the tube Of the same material. AS for
the liquid it must be body which it
is easy to obtain in the pure state, and
which melts at a relatively low tenn
perature, giving off no vapors up to a
red heat; moreover it should contract
on solidifying. NJ Dufour finds that
tin answers perfectly these conditions,
and he has constructed a thermometer
using tin as metal, which reads from
240 degrees to $50 degrees C. AS
quartz softens only at LOCO
degrees to 1000 degrees, a
thermometer may be made which
reads up to 900 degrees; it can be
graduated %by utilizing the boiling
points of mercury and sulphur and the
level Of the tin is well defined in the
two cases. To go higher. the boiling
points of cadmium and zinc may be
taken. The thermometer ! was filled
with melted tin and as perfect a va
cuum as possible was obtained, after
which the end was closed by the blow
pipe. The last bubbles of air were TIA
ken out by melting the tin, which
gives 1t repeated shocks. If the tin
has traces of oxide, this adheres to the.
sides Of the reservoir and remains.

he was rocked, and robbed, and beaten,
and starved; how he was at last taken
up by charitable folk, restored to some
degree OF self-complacency and INSTALL
ed as a clerk in bank in San Fran
cisco, it would take too long to tell;
nor in these episodes were there any
marks Of the peculiar Nicholsonic des-
tiny, for they were just such matters
as befell some thousands of other young
adventures in the same days and
places. But once posted in the bank,
he fell for a time into high degree
OF good fortune. which, as it was only
a longer way about to fresh disaster,
it behoovesN me to explain.
1t was his luck to meet a young man
in what is technically called ''dive,"
and thanks to his monthly wages, to
extricate this new acquaintance from
a position Of present disgrace and pos
sible danger in the future. This young
man was the nephew of one of the Mob
Hill magnates, who run the San Fran
cisco stock exchange, much as more
humble adventurers, in the corner Of
some public park at home, may be seen
to perform the simple artifice of pea
and thimble for their own profit, shat
is to say, and the Encouragement Of
public gambling. It was thus in his
power-and, as he was of grateful tenn

thought or. industry, or 50 much as
even ding the game at which
he played, but by simply buying and
selling what he was told to buy and
sell, that plaything Of fortune was
presently at the head Of between eleven
and twelve thousand pounds, or, as he
reckoned It, Of upward Of sixty thou-
sand dollars. s. 4.
How he had come to deserve this
wealth, any more than how he had for
merly earned disgrace at home, was a
problem beyond the reach of his phil
osophy. It was true that he had been
industrious at the bank, but no more
SO than the cashier, who had seven

small children and was yisibly sinking
in decline. Nor was the step which
had determined his advance visit to
a dive with month s wages IN his

virtue, or even Wisd ON, as to seem
to merit the favor Of the gods.

sion in Europe.
In Brussels in Amsterdam, in Paris,
in Berlin, one hears the music of the
Transvaal hymn everywhere, says a
writer. The Anglo-Boer war has rous-
ed a tremendous sentiment in Europe.
In every school Of Belgium, Holland,
Germany, the children have made ND
collections for the families of the dead
Beers. Millions of marks, guldens.
francs have thus been sent to the suf-
ferers of the yeldt. In churches, in
cafes, in concert hail. at social gather
ings, the most popular form Of benevo-
lence this winter has been the Boer
subscriptions. If a few friends in
Cologne or The Hague gathered for
game of whist they sent the money
played for to the Beers, who never play
cards. If dinner was given at fash
ionable hotel the guests remembered
the farmers of the veldt, who hardly
ever saw hotel. At one restaurant in
Brussels, 1900 francs were collected in
an evening. Every city and town that
has a newspaper has had 5subscrip-
ton fund. A German rural paper
lifted $4,000 marks. Sentiment in Hol-
land, Belgium, and Germany is prac-
tically a unit pro-Boer, while in France
at least IS per cent lean the same way.
One quite pathetic form of Boer SYM
pathy in Europe was the Klaus
