THE THORN IN HANNA's SIDE.

Senator Hanna has been put out Of
temper by the declaration of the indie
pendent newspapers supporting McKin
ley that Mr. Bryan's speech of accept
ance was of such a character as to
make it necessary for the Republican
leaders, if they would counteract its eff
feet upon the minds of the people, to
meet its argument in other ways than
by raising a big campaign fund. Hanna
disapproves of this kind of talk, be-
cause he is sagacious enough to know
that Bryan's speech against i'm
perialism is absolutely unanswerable,
and the least said about it the better
it will be for the republican party. The
Boston Herald says:
Notwithstanding the disapproba-
ton of the eminent chief manager of
the Republican campaign, we remain
opinion too, that Mr.. Hanna knows
that what we said is reasonable on its
face and useful as counsel, although he
may not relish its frankness, We ex-
pect to see, before the campaign is
much older, proceeding on the part of
the Republicans that will recognize
the justice of our critical estimate of
the Unexpectedly cogent and persuasive
quality of this address, which, I'M
doubtedly, will be a widely circulated
document of the opposition. It cannot
wisely be dismissed with a contemptu-
GUS sheer"
The ringing and patriotic speech of
Bryan and the unmistakabIe drift of
the independent and German-Ameri-
can vote to the Democratic party, have
made the Honorable Marcus Alonzo
Hanna very unhappy man. He has
discovered to his disgust that the woods
are not on fire for Mckinley this year,
as was the case in 1896. Things are not
at all to his liking, and he is alarmed
by the indifference which exists
among the rank and file of the Re-
publican party IN the Eastern and Wes-
tern States
In an interview with representative
of the New York Herald on Saturday
last Senator Hanna complained of the
apathy, although heEcalled it confd-
ence, as follows:
fright here is the trouble. Repub-
licans in the States west of the Allie
ghanies are so filed with confidence
that they fail to enthuse. A similar
condition prevails here in New York
though not to so great an extent. I
have attempted to give warning, and
our friends seem to think that I am
talking for effect. I am not. You
may quote me as saying that if we can
get out our votes we will defeat Bryan
more decisivelY than we did four years
ago. But it is going to be much more
difficult than it was then to persuade
men that they should take the trouble
to go to the polls. This same apathetic
over confidence is ocasioning the Ma
tional Committee much embarrassment,
as 1t has resulted in q lack of campaion
funds.
The lack of campaign funds is very
worrisome to Hanna. He knows that
it is impossible for the Republican
press and spellbinders to meet Bryan's
argument against Imperialism, and the
only hope he has to overcome it's effect
on the voters lies in an immense cor
ruption fund. New Orleans States,

The blood is quickly contaminated by

After that, growing plants should be
hung from above and curtains ar
ranged to make of the window a ver-
liable coy corner. or course this is
simple IL the recessed window is built
in the house. But the appearance of
a recess may be given to any window,
and is advisable often in the case Of
one in large, bare room. Place a
couple of brass arms SO they will jut
out from either side of the window
and connect them in front with brass
pole, over which some curtains are
draped. Curtains may also be hung
from the side arms and the inner side
of them partially concealed by tall
palms. The decorations should be fin
ished. of course, with a window seat.
To beautify one of those long, narrow.
commonplace halls, hang with some
light paper and paint the woodwork in
ivory and white. Then midway down
the hall or just at the foot of the
stairs place a brass rod from wall to
wall. Throw curtains of some art ma
terial over 1t, and from the center
swing a lamp of wrought iron.

of impurities, carrying them to the
earth. The amount of solid matter car
ried down in an ordinary snowstorm
and the cleanliness of the atmosphere
afterwards are best appreciated by
chemical analysis of the snow melted
into water and examined. Small par
ticles of SCOT, free ammonia and solid
matter are all taken from the atmos-
phere and precipitated upon the earth.
The air in cities after snowstorm
shows in striking contrast with that
under ordinary circumstances. After
a wet snow in a manufacturing city
the air was almost as pure as in the
country, the soft particles having lit
orally scraped out of the air the SCOT
that was there held in suspension.
Some of these days when we have
grown more scientific than at present,
we may be able to make artificial snow
storms to cleanse the atmosphere.
This certainly would be a great tri-
umph, and one which the jewellers in
smoke-laden cities would value very
highly.

competitor of the North German
Lloyd's Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse,
but she is expected to beat the latter
ship in all essential particulars. Her
length over all is 6S4 feet, her beam
81 feet, nodded depth A feet, displace-
ment, loaded, $4,000 tons. Her draught
Is estimated at 30 feet, and her speed
at % knots. She will be able to carry
1857 passengers and a crew of 525
men. Her cost will be 1882 900, and,
as In time of war, she will be at the
service of the German government.
Her rudder and steering gear are pro-
tected and under her water line. She
has double bottom extending the
entire length, which is divided into "a
compartments. 1t is said that if two
adjoining compartments should fill
with water the ship would not sink.
1t is long way in the matter of
speed, at least, between the magnif-
cent big flyers of today and the Great
Eastern, the monarch of her time, and
in some respects of all time to date.
TIE Great Eastern, built in 1858, was
eight feet longer, 1917 feet deeper,
and of $50 tons more displacement,
than the Deutschland, but her speed
was S1s knots slower. The Oceanic,
built last year, and which is ~ feet
longer than the Great Eastern and 20
feet longer than the Deutschland, has
a speed three knots less than the es-
timated speed of the Deutschland.
While in length, breadth, depth and
displacement the old conditions have
scarcely been surpassed, steady in
crease has been made in draught and
speed. The draught of the Great East
ern was 25ls feet; that Of the Oceanic
is 321a feet and the estimated draught
OF the Deutschland is 80 feet

A notice appears upon the front door
Of the First Parish church which has
attracted considerable attention at O
distance. On close inspection the no.
the proves to be one OF delinquent
tax sale. It is well known that the
First Parish clings to the old method
OF pew ownership, in part at least. On
the pews that are owned, as on real es-
tate in the city, certain proportion of
the parish revenue is laid annually In
the form of taxes. In former times
there was not much attention paid to
this matter OF taxes, but for some years
past the parish has been trying to ac-
quire title toall of the pews, to the end
that taxes may be abolished and rental
substituted therefor. For this reason
the collector has been looking very
sharply after delinquents, and each
year the parish was bid in and bought
some pews. This list this year in
cludes some dozen or more, and they
are to be sold Jan. Is IL the unpaid
taxes are not paid in the meantime.
When this lot of pews Is hidden in by
the parish committee there will be on
ly about dozen more that are owned
by individuals, and the prospect is
good that these will be surrendered
within year or two, so that 1t will
become a free church where anyone
may secure seats anywhere by paying
rental for them, instead of in the old
fashioned way of owning pew against
all corners and holding 1t as long as
man holds his house.-Portland (Me.l
