Ethics Of the Line.
Tickets to the Paderewski concert
were placed on sale in one of the
stores in this city last Monday at ten
o'clock A. NJ. BY that hour perhaps
thirty people were in line to buy their
tickets. Nearly every new conner,
glanced at the line. sighed and took
his place behind the last man with
resigned expression. The sale was
advertised TO begin at ten o'clock
and, very properly, the ticket seller
did not take his station in front of
the line until the stroke of ter.
Meanwhile the crowd argued among
themselves the fOOliShneSS of keeping
so many people waiting after so many
busy people had arrived. Some men
and women ignored the immutable
law of precedence and tried to step
in ahead. They were usually fooled
by the closing up Of the line. There
are those who are always willing to
ignore the simple conventions men
invariably adopt to avoid confusion.
Such man rushed in after the sale
had been opened. He scanned the
line and picked out an acquaintance
in the van and handed him the mocey
for his tickets. cOngrdtulating him
self on his ingenuity. He was OBJ
lIvious to the remarks of the line of
Americans, who understanding the
ethics Of the line. were waiting their
turn patiently enough. TIE scene is
an old one and this particular man
has an unfortunately large number of
prototypes. 1t is some satisfaction
that Nemesis waits with large retri-
button for all men and all women who
underestimate the spirit and final
vindictiveness of the line.

Look Before You Lean

Once upon time there was n young
man who believed what the books said.
He left the farm and came to the
great city 10 make his fortune and 10
climb the ladder of fame. The books
said n great deal about the ladder Of
fame, SO the young man exercised him
self on copybook morals and poor Rich
ards almanac in OrGer TO be able to
chin himself up round 1T n time.
He was especially strong on run
away horses, and one day. to his graft
ticaion, he saw mad steed plunging
down the crowded street. He could
not see any fainting maiden attached,
but still he knew this wss his Oppor-
tunity. He sprang for the bride, but
hit the front wheel instead and was
projected with violence into the gut
ter. Six months later, when he came
out of the hospital. he was sent to the
Home For the Predetermined for try
ing TO stop a fire marshal in the per-
formnce of his duty.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness. and that is by con,
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inhamed condition OF tho mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
infiamed you have rumbling sound or i'm.
perfect hearing, and when 1t is entirely closed
deafness Is the result, and unless the In
fiammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by catarrh, which Is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces

Former Governor w. d. Hoard of
Wisconsin, who is now at Brattleboro,
attending a meeting of the National
Dairy Union of which he is president,
talked freely of the proposed legislation
in favor of the dairy interests of the
United States, which will be broached
at the present session of congress. The
eX governor is in favor of law to put
the artificial product on its own merits
before the consumer. "The continued
stupid dishonesty of the American policy
has lost an immense foreign market. In
1880 we shipped to England fifteen
million dollars worth of cheese. Then
we began to make filled cheese and iu
1899 our export to England was three
million dollars worth Of cheese. Canada
has laws that secure pure foods, She
saw the opportunity and has taken the
English market from US. She exported
in 1899 seventeen million dollars worth
of cheese. These figures prove thai
sound ethics are good commerce. Fraud
results in the loss of trade. What We
want to do is to provide against counter
feits and gradually regain our trade
The value of the dairy products Of the
United States Is eight hundred millior
dollars worth. Now these vast in
terests do not demand any protection bu
that against fraud and counterfeit"

Bryan Thinks His Country Is Bound to
Europe's Golden Chariot.

Bryan Thinks His Country Is Bound to
Europe's Golden Chariot.
Omaha, Neb., Jan. AT the jefferson
club banquet to night William j. Bryan
responded to the toast "Our Nation
He said in part:
"Those who studied the money question
in 1896 foresaw the danger threatened
by the gold standard aud pointed out that
its permanent establishment would in
volve us in every financial disturbance
occurring in Europe. but the bankers
were for the most part blind to the
warning. What do we see now? Not
withstanding the increased production of
gold, few victories won by the Beers
in South Africa have alarmed the same
bankers and they are now fearing a
panic unless England is Immediately
successful. Their financial interest in
England's triumph is so great that many
of them have silenced their sympathy
for a struggling republic and are hoping
for the extension of the authority of a
queen.
"If such agitation results from a war
between England and little republic,
what must we expect if war ever breaks
out between two gold standard countries
of the first class? Without financial
independence, this nation cannot be in
dependent either in its foreign or its
domestic policy, and yet the Republican
party is even now preparing to chain
America like captive to EurOpe's
golden chariot.
"Those who studied the money
question in 1896 also foresaw that the
retirr,iii:S3;,..t. 81 Ce the greenbacks was part
of the gold standard plan. Many Re-
publicans secuted at the idea and the
president avoided any mention of the
matter in his letter of acceptance. But
now the scheme is being unfolded and the
financiers are to be empowered TO expand
or contract the currency at their own
will and for their own pecuniary ad-
vantage"
Mr.. Bryan also discussed trusts and
imperialism m from his we'll known stand
point.
A Manchester On. H. despatch of
Jan. says: The Granite State club of
New Hampshire held its 14th annual
banquet at the Manchester House tonight
and observed Jackson's day. The guest
of the evening was Congressman William
Sulzer of New York and his stirring ad
dress was cheered to the echo. He was
introduced as the probable vice-presi-

CLEVER COUP OF sogRs.
Rout of Broadwood's Force Proves skill
in Preparing Ambuscade.

The London correspondents with Gen.
Roberts add little of Importance to the
commander in-chief's account of the dis
aster 10 Col Broadwoods column. All
TIE accounts of the tight from a British
source concur in stating that Col. Broad
woods force on ABOUT coo men was out
numbered by the Beers eight or ten TO
one. and the arrival CT the Infantry d.
vision and Gen. Freneh's cavalry alone
prevented the humiliation OF Col. Broad
woods command.
As regards the details Of the affair,
the stories differ considerably. The af-
fair seems rather 10 testify TO the skill
of the Beers in preparing amhuscades
than 10 neglect of the British TO recon
noiter the route OF the convoy. 1t seems
that the scouts OF the convoy must have
passed close to the ambushers, who APP
parently were as invisible as partrdges
in cover.
The correspondent OF the London Morn
ing Posi-, in describing the working Of the
trap. says the convoy had scarcely pro-
ceeded SEQ yards. and the men were still
eating breakfast. when the enemy opened
fire from donga in front and eighty
yards from the head of the convoy. The
fire was deadly. and the men of the lead
ing troops, Roberts horse. We're swept
