One Of the commonest devices of the
outs to disIodge the ms IL to spread
abroad wholesale charges of corrup-
ton in Office. OF which specific details
are never given. One of the methods
by which thoroughly dishonest man
strives to grasp power is to promise
that. under him. the books shall be
opened, derelictions laid bare and Of
fences punished II he does this. he In
a reformer. If he does not, he is
humbug whom IL would not be too Sc
we're to call a rascal
Gov. Rogers was lavish of these
charges when he was a candidate for
office. He proclaimed virtuously his
intention to Danish impure methods
from public life. And the whole extent
Of his performance was to include these
sentiments in a public document. In
practice he connived at the most in
famous assaults upon the honesty ot
legislators and the honor OF the state.
He made no attempt to have investiga-
lions forwarded. because he was then
a member Of the combination In whose
interest corruption fourished That al
lance and that policy hold him fast in
their tells today.
Even man like this might have
paused before he laid hands upon the
institutions of the state devoted to the
helpless and the unfortunate. and de-
bauched them for his own political adj
vantage. But this one had no pity and
no scruples. His first interest was to
secure a common control, so that the
patronage might be dispensed by sim
gle hand No board OF audit and cog
troll that was not his servile instrv-
ment would answer him. And when.
by summary discharges and public tn
suits, he had secured one to his liking,
the public institutions. the penitentiary
and the hospitals for the insane were
made retreats for his personal follow
ers. his political henchmen.
Again this was characteristic of the
man. Always petty. always without
the scrupIes that restrain a bigger and
holder boss, he converted to his politi-
cal uses the necessities OF the defence
less and the tender bounty Of the state.
His political heeiers must be provided
for; and IL mattered little what the
man and what the place. No misfor-
tune was sacred. no distress appealed
state restrained him. He Ia today the
autocrat OF an unprinclpled. disgusting,
revolving machine. From the cells of
convicts ana the wards where madmen
are confined went forth the influences.
reinforced by the ample funds of his
political partner. that made John n.
Rogers a candidate for governor against
the declared VIII OF the fusionists of
this state. He is a humbug. hut he is
worse than that. He Is trafficker In
misfortune, and the builder and en-

In the Arms Of Morpheus.

He had worked late at a typesetting
machine and was tired from honest
toll. He waited for a "Limits" car,
told the conductor where to let him
off, few blocks beyond the Boule-
ward, and then settled in the corner
for a nap. His next fash of intelli-
gence came when he was being shaken
and asked for a fare.
"Paid you once," he muttered,
shaking off the conductors hand and
getting right back into the position of
repose.
'Here, now, no monkeying. That
was going out. We don't sell round
trips"
This brought the passenger to his
feet, he looked out and found that he
was at Elizabeth street, going south.
"What in thunder does this mean? /
told you where to let me off, Hauled
me out to the limits and back, did
you? Well, L won't settle. I'm not
out on an excursion and I'm not try
ing to enrich this syndicate of yours. l"
"And this is no sleeping car. 1 let
you dream too long as it was. You'll
pay or get off"

the next one, and the two said things
to each other as far as they could
hear. He boarded another car twenty
minutes later, issued the same order
without noticing that it was the same
conductor, doubled in the same cor
ner and cut loose with the same
snore. This time he was shaken up
at Ferry avenue on the return trip,
was so sleepy that he thought it was
his street, walked off and was so mad
that he tried to tear up the track.
Then he footed it home and went to
sleep on the front steps. Detroit

the local municipal authorities to be
a matter of general regret, though
none of the public bodies concerned

The first British Army Corps that was
sent to South Africa carried with it
two balloon sections, which have been
actively in use since their arrival.
8. Cycists-The number of cyclists
in the European armies has been
gradually increasing of late years. AS
long ago as 1894 England had over
5000 in her army. Italy is now or
ganizing a cyclist company in each
Bersaglieri regiment, for reconnais-
aance and messenger duty, and a
special engineer section, for the rapid
destruction Of railroads aud telegraph
lines; France has a cyclist company
for each army corps and cavalry divi-
sion, Russia eight cyclists in each
regiment, and other nations use a con
staptly increasing number in the
autumn manmuvres.
9. Automobiles - Automobiles are
to be used not only behind the front
of the srmies-that is, with the trains
but also at the front with the troops
themselves. At the last French
man@uvres they were employed to
transport the outposts, for carrying
orders, etc., and at the last German
manmuvres eight such wagons, some
large traction benzine motors and
other small automobiles, were used
with such success that number OF
both kinds have since been ordered
for the army. The purpose of the
larger wagons is to transport ammuni-
tion, supplies and MATERIAL their
great advantage is their speed and the
fact that they reduce (by half to two
thirds) the length of the column OF
the trains on account Of their great
carrying power, the absence ofhorses,
mules or oxen, and of the forage re-
quired for these draught animals.
The smaller wagons are for messenger
duty, the rapid transport of men and
equipments, outpost duty and hos
pltal service. In Germany a motor
wagon with load of 4400 pounds,
and two lighter automobiles, recently
passed through the steep roads of the
Harz, aud even crossed the Broken.
Messages were constantly carried dur
ing the recent maneuvres by light
automobiles from Carlsruhe to Leon
burg (forty-four miles, IN 2f hours,
and motor bicycle, in spite of bad
weather, covered the distance from
Augsburg to Carlsruhe in three days.
England has used motor wagons for
heavy traffic quite extensively at AL
dershot, and is now using them in the
Transvaal. Among the latest Eng
lish constructions are ~ a four
wheeled automobile, worked by ben
zine motor, attaining a speed of TWEEN
ty-fve miles an hour, carrying one
man and a Maxim gun, and (2) an
armored motor wagon carrying in
turret two machine guns and their
cannoneers, and also searchlight.- -

A case of Petly LnrpenY.

There was an excited group of girls
around the ceutre-table in the board
iug.house hall. Little appreciatiye
squeaks were heard between the eX-
clamations of delight which some few
were able to express. 1t was all a
mystery to the little messenger boy
who stood by the door, not daring to
investigate aud unable to penetrate
the phalanx of backs. Little by little
the group dispersed and the object of
their attention was revealed. The
boy stepped forward, hesitatingly, half
stealthily, and tten quickly tore
blank page from his book and rolled
it into a cornucopia. Still there was
no one about. Just two steps more,
and a little courage, aud he could
make the little sick sister so happy.
Should he do it?
When the maid returned With the
answer for him he was standing inn
passively as before at the door, but in
his pocket nestled three of the tiny
wild flowers from the great bowlful on
the table.-Detroit Free Press

girls a paper handed in by miss of
twelve had as its subject "The Boy"
"The boy is not an animal, yet can

When the boy hollers he opens his
big mouth like frogs, but girls hold
their tongue till they are spoken to,
and then they answer respectable and
tell just how it was. A. boy thinks
himself clever because he can wade

boy grows up he is called a husband,
and then stops wading and stays out
nights, but the grown-up girl is .
