some unexplained charges made by the
Logan Journal So far as its attempted
defense of its course in betraying sill
yer pretended to deal with facts it was
90 per cent falsehood. but that is an
everyday occurrence. The interesting
thing is that the Hanna editor dared
not publish the article to which he at

HANNA ON UTAH WOMEN.

Marcus AureIius Hanna, usually
known as the Republican party has
been giving the New York World his
views on women in politics. OF course
Mr.. Hanna objects to women, either as
voters or as delegates to national con-
ventions; they would not appreciate his
Eaternal control.
The chief interest in the senator
talk, however, viii center in his dis
cussion of Utah women. Note the del
icacy, the fine courtesy, the polished
language of this extract. When asked
If he would look out for the comfort
Of the ladies' in attendance at PhiIa-
delphia from Utah and Wyoming, the
Presidents custodian said:
II think that female delegates will
be capable of looking out for them

those saw on my trip through Utah,
they'll be used to performing that
function unaided. Utah women folk
are gathered together in mysterious
ways. They are proselyted from all
countries and all classes, and a large
majority OF them are ignorant. Yet
7 believe Utah was the first state TO
allow woman's suffrage.
And yet Mr.. Hanna has the assur-
ance of his close friends. Colonel Lam

ANEW WRINKLE IN DANCING.

The Dancing Masters association in
convention assembled has decreed that
hugging shall be barred hereafter in
Waiting. Here are the rules in de-
tail:
1.-The gentleman offers his left hand
to the lady and she places her right hand
in it.
2-The gentleman closes his left hand
firmly around the ladys right.
3.-The lady curves her left arm and
rests the left hand above her partner 5
right elbow
4-The fingers of the gentleman right
hand are clustered and merely touch his
partner at the waist line
5.-The walters now begin to revolve
in time with the music, virtually holding
each other at arms length.
That might do very well for Arthur
Brown and P. II. Lannan when they
next appear in their justly celebrated
Harmony Two Step. but it stands
less show of adoption in Utah than
would a decree to limit hammocks to a
capacity of one each.

LISTS Feat of Memory.

IN the July Century, William Mason, the
veteran American musician, tells of a
remarkable feat of memory performed by
the composer Liszt:
My friend knew List very well. and
having taken fancy to a composition of
NINE, Les Perles de Rosee, which was
sun IN manuscript, he said: Let me

the dedication. / am going directly from

way Tor your reception later as a pupil"
Not long afterward 1 received a letter
from my friend in which he told me that

from memory. Then, going to his desk,

wrote a letter to List. expressing my de-
sire TO become one of his pupils, and ask
ing what my chances were. Unfortunate

ed the impression that it amounted to a
refusal; but at the same time he gave me
a cordial invitation to attend che festival

business there was TO protect American
interests and residents. Canton was
defended by four big forts. One day
they opened fire on Foote. An apology
was demanded of the Chinese authori-
ties, but it failed 10 materiaiize. The
American commander landed with 2S7
marines and drove C,0e0 Chinese sol
diers out of the Qualifications at. the

the other was carried by storm. Two
attacking armies from the city were
repulsed. AT last the Chinese sued for
peace. The Americans returned to
their shin, having lost twelve killed
and bearing with them twenty-eight
wounded. But we never asked any
concessions or seized any territory. The
point was gained Temporarily at least
the Chinese had been taught to leave
Americans alone.

FORMER CHINESE TROUBLES.

History is inclined to repeat itself in
China, as elsewhere. In 1870 a whole
sale massacre of Christian missionaries
took place at TIen Tsin. But the ma
tons were not in a mood for war at
that time. In 1860, however. war was
actually begun. The difficulties We're

but the fighting had progressed much
further before an understanding was
reached.
There had been a massacre of mer-
chants and missionaries. The French
and English joined forces to obtain
satisfaction. The allied troops attacked
the Chinese forts near the mouth Of
the Pei-ho river, but were repulsed
with great slaughter. The assault was
renewed little later and the forts
were carried, after severe losses on
both sides. In the official reports pub
Iished at the time it was said that the
Chinese manifested a bravery and skill
OF which they have heretofore shown
no examples"

OF HIS OWN ACCORD.

The Chicago Record tells a good story
on De Wolf Hopper or, rather, gives his
version of a streetcar incident:
4 was sitting on one of the back seats
with the smokers when the woman got
on, says Mr.. Hopper. "She came in
and took the seat right beside me
where she had no business to be. as
there were lots of vacant seats forward
but that made no difference to her.
She was not beautiful, and she was
very severe. I felt the moment I looked
at her that we could never be friends.
Nov it happened that I had a very
severe cold and a friend of mine had
recommended onion syrup. don't like
onions as a general thing, hut then 1

and slipped them into my coat pocket.

syrup was whisky and. according to in

of that liquid. and when I got her last

she opened out on me.

Didn't Love the Country.
ATLANTA. Ionrna1.N


Judge John I. Hall of Macon, one of the
South's ablest lawyers, is here attending
the supreme court.
All efforts TO interview him on the
Beers, the Philippines or the unspeakable
Turk failed, but he told this story with
great effect:
When war was declared against Spain
the darkies became greatly agitated be-
cause there was talk of putting them to
the front to fight the Spaniards They
offered all sorts of amusing excuses for
not enlisting#
''One old negro said to a gentleman who
was urging him TO take up arms against
Spain:
'WEat for. Mars George said the old
man. 1 amt got nuthin aginst them
Spaniels- They never done nuthin to me.
| amt got thing agfnst them Spaniels,
what's the use of US fightin'?'

A SEVERE ARRAiGNMENT.

That was a scorching arraignment
that the national Prohibition conven-
ton gave William Mckinley. The
hypocrisy of the president on the tenn
perance question has been revealed to
the Prohibitionists. just as his dupli-
city on other questions has been dis
covered by other citizens Possibly the
Prohibitionists entertain some mistak-
en- notions concerning the merits of the
army canteen system. but they are
right in declaring that the president
violated his oath Of Office when he
sought to nuIlify an act of congress.
Perhaps the most serious charge
made against the president by the
temperance people is contained in the
following resolution. which was adopt
ed with enthusiasm:
We charge upon President Mckinley.

sLANDERED BY THE GOVERNOR

Governor Wells yesterday told a
Washington reporter that he was elect
ed governor in 1895 by a majority of
$500 votes. His exeeIlency might have
gone on , say that he was elected on
a free coinage platform. which he has
since repudiated, and that he went be-
fore the people as an advocate of a
cause that he subsequently betrayed,
he could, without departing from the
truth have stated that he inveighed
against Imperialism a few months ago,
but was now prepared to swallow any
kind Of q dose that Mark Hanna pre-
scribed; that he once posed as an indie
pendent executive. owing allegiance TO
no boss, but that he had become the
tool Of small and INSCRIPTIONS fac
ton of the party in Utah in order that
he might win favor from newspaper
that has always been engaged in SIAN
dering his constituents.
But what the governor says about
himself is of very little consequence.
The people viii attend to his case later
on. The only portion of his interview
that is worth serious attention is his
statement that the people of Utah, who
were solidly for free coinage four years
ago, are now supporters of the single
gold standard and ready to do the bid
ding Of the money trust This is a di-
rect charge that his constituents are as
inslncere and faithless as himself and
that, like himself. they have betrayed
a sacred cause. There is absolutely no
truth or reason in such wild charges,
and it is altogether outrageous for a
governor of a state to thus misreDre-
sent and Islander his people. The voters
of Utah are as honestly and sincerely
in favor of free coinage now as they
were in 1886. The results of an acct,
dental and temporary increase in the
circulating medium have vindi-
Gated their position of -four
years ago and show that BIZ
metallism would produce perma-
nent prosperity. And when the COVER
nor of the state goes back to the White
House and tells Mark Hanna and Nc
Kinley that Utah is now a goldbug
state, he parades himself as a foolish
babbler or a slanderer of the people.
But the voters viii know what to do
with the governor next November and
what they will do will be sufficient.

The New York Tribune says of the
late Count Muravieff that he was "the
perfect embodiment of the Russian
system" In other words, it is ex-
planned: He had all the severity of
his father. who crushed Poland so
ruthlessly, and yet SO much tact and
policy that he was able to pose as the
chief promoter of the peace congress
at The Hague. Above all men of his
day, perhaps, he kept in mind the long
established principle that Russian vic
tories are diplomatic, not military, and
above all he practiced that type of
diplomacy which has given to Russia
so many victories" His place will be
hard to fill and no one could handle
Russian interests in the China crisis
so we'll as he could have handled them

TRIPLES!

Our cars are no better-in themselves
than the cars of other lines. It is
what is INSIDE them that makes them
more comfortable.
For instance: The seats in our re-
clining chair cars are provided with
linen head pieces-clean and cool. Our
dining cars have electric fans, and are
gorgeously decorated with flowers. In
every car is a thermometer, which the
porter constantly consults in order to
keep the temperature of his car as
nearly uniform as possible.
By themselves, these things are tri-
fes. but the sum TAI OF them goes a
long way toward making a trip over
the Burlington a mighty enjoyable ex-
perience.

Speaking of the reputed alliance be-
tween the Mckinley and Salisbury ad-
ministrations for the conquest of Chi
ma, the local Republican organ says:
TT is true that Mr.. Hay has pointed
out that such an alliance could not be
made without violating the constitution
of the United States" It makes no
difference to Secretary Hay or Presi-
