To Fly in Your Dreams.

There is popularity about the
Aying dream that seems to be con-
stant. OF ell those whom I asked
about the matter. and who are con
scious OF the flying dream at all, not
one has ever known himself to make
any high flights in his dreams. One
always flies low, with skimming
manner. slightly but only slightly
above the heads OF the pedestrians.
And ones critical attitude in a dream
toward ones own performance is al
ways interesting to note, both III re-
gard to this particular class OF dream
and even more toward one of the
other classes. It is an attitude that
is we'll brought out in "Alice il Won
lerland," where Alice is made to ex-
claim or to think while she is falling,
How brave they will all think OF me

4 party OF veteran newspaper mel
were talking the other day about three
Albany reporters who became mem
bers of the cabinet Of the president
of the United States: the late Daniel
Manning, secretary Of the treasury
during Clevelaud's first administra-
lion; Daniel S. Lamont, secretary OF
war during Cleveland's second admin
istration, and Charles Emory Smith,
now postmaster general. 1t was less
than 25 years ago that they sat side by
side reporting the proceedings Of the
New York Legislature. Colonel Mich
ener of Indiana recalls an even more
remarkable combination which ap-
peared in the United States court OF
Indiana some years ago. Walter =.
Gresham, the presiding Judge, after

Should it be rule Of life TO get all
you can, or give all YOU can? Tha;
question is just now under discussion,
Well, how much can one give unless
he first gets? The men who are laying
thousands or millions on the altars OF
education. humanity OF religion have
generally been successful rs captains
OF industry, princes Of commerce or
leaders of large business enterprises.
Possibly also their chief benefaction
has consisted i'll creating profitable
employment-which is kind of Civ
ing especially if they have been Just
and considerate in their dealings, and
have paid IA r wages. To get honest
Iy is quite as legitimate as to give
generously, and ought to take equal
rank.

The British correspondents are get
ting sassy because Uncle Sam refus-
ed to go to John Bull for his instruc-
tions in re China. "The British for
eign Office thought it was entitled to
rely on American support" On what
ground. pray? America Is not Brit
ish dependency nor is the Democratic
bugaboo of a secret alliance reality.
II the Russian policy appeals to the
United States as the one most worthy
its adoption. Mckinley does not pro-
pose to be bluffed out of it by the
angry roars of the British lion. The
statement that "the moment the Unit
ed States is asked to accept some
amount of responsibility it hastily eff
faces itself and executes a hasty re-
treat" sounds strangely from British
source. considering that little Venezuela
episode and one or two other little
happenings which might be mentioned.
