PERSONAL NOTES.

General Lew Wallace, who is now ma
tional president of the Phi Gamma Delta
fraternity, is a candidate for re election.
The Cape "Times" says that Cecil
Rhodes will present bronze medals to all
the soldiers engaged in the relief of Kim
berly.
Jean de Reszke has had theatre built
as an annex to his house in Paris, which
he intends to use for his guests at private
muscales.
Garter H. Harrison, Mayor of Chicago
is something of q musician. He plays q
little, composes little and never misses
q performance of grand opera.
Archbishop Patrick ]. Feehan, of Chi
cago, owns complete set Of the rare first
editions of Newman's works-on the fly
leaf of each volume of which appears the
Cardinals autograph.
The Anglican Archbishop Of the West
Indies has offered prayer to be offered
in all the churches under his jurisdiction
for the success &c me- British arms in
South Africa.
When Hamilton Garland reached New
York with bis bride recently he wanted
TO avoid newspaper men and 30 registered
his own name on one line and some dis
lance below wrote the name Zulime Taft
Garland.
Mrs. Kruger is, to the daughters Of her
country.women, the ideal Boer woman,
and there is scarcely young girls room
in the Transvaal, but has picture Of the
Presidents wife by way of a continually
present example.
Serene E. Payne, chairman Of the
House Ways and Means Committee, has
a voice which is the envy and despair OF
most Congressman. In carrying power
it has no equal, and though every sylla'
BILE is plain all over the House the tones
are never harsh or wearying.
Professor Roentgen, of Wurzberg, the
discoverer of the X rays, has finally de-
cided to accept call to Munich Univer'
sity, which was extended to him some
time ago. Certain conditions laid down
by the scientist have but recently been
agreed to by the larger university.
S. r. Crockett, the author, shows in
his person much of the aptitude for good
fighting which he loves in his heroes. He
stands six feet high with breadth OF
shoulders to match, and with his ruddy
cheek, his red beard and keen blue eye
looks more like man Of action than of
letters.
The story of Queen Victoria's fondness
for the dolls which delighted her child
hood is rather shaken by the later state
ment that che does not approve Of dolls
for children and never allowed her own
daughters to have them, but rather be-
lieved in training such as Ruskin received,
with the fewest and simplest of play
things.

THURSDAY, JANUARY IS, 1900.
TICKLE AND FALSE.

ftONkC INV HSO6'
The Southern Democracy is very tickle
and false. Its conduct toward MIR. CIeve'
land is striking proof of the fact. When
that gentleman was elected President the
Southern Democracy was so intense in its
demonstrations of affection and respect for
him that it almost approached idolatry. 1t
was the first time since 1860 that the Bour-
bon element at the South had enjoyed an
opportunity of participating in the Federal
patronage and its delight was unmeasured'
MIR. Cleveland, in giving the Southern
Democrats full share Of pap, was not
disappointment. The highest honors and
most lucrative appointments were heaped
unstintedly ON Southern leaders His
Cabinet during both of his terms was COM
posed largely of Southern men, and
number of the most desirable appoint
ments to foreign courts were distributed at
the South. In equal proportion this Sec
ton received its quota of Federal appoint
ments.
No one was as popular with the South
ern Democracy as was Mr.. Cleveland when
he was candidate for the Presidency the
last time. The place hunters remembered
what he had done for them during his
first term, and this made them enthusiastic
supporters of the imam of destiny" when
he was the second time a successful candi-
date. They were not disappointed in re-
ceiving large share Of patronage during
his second term of Office; and their wor'
ship did not cease until bis second Admin
istration was failure, made so by return
to the policy of low tariff, which conformed
to the platform on which he vas elected;
and which policy was urged by the solid
Southern Democracy. AS soon IS it was
in evidence that Democratic administra-
ton was failure, and that the country
was disguised, Cleveland was made scape
goat by the Southern Democracy, and the
basest ingratitude was exhibited toward
the man who was idolzed SO long as he
had power and patronage to bestow. The
men who had been so unceasing in their
praises when there was something good to
receive began to revile tie man who had
been their friend and patron. Nothing
more contemplate has ever occurred in
American politics. Today Mr. Cleveland
is in the South, but he receives no atten'
ton, no words of commentator from its
people, OF from those who were his bene'
ficiaries and fawned upon him while he
had patronage 10 distribute.
A like fate seems to be approaching Mr..
Bryan. Though he has not been in po-
sition, and never will be, to help fill the
hungry NAV of the Southern place hunter,
he was made an idol in 1896 by the South
ern Democracy, because they believed they
had found Moses who would lead them
to the flesh pots of Egypt, not from them.
Recently they have begun to lose conf
dence in their new leader, that is, in bis
ability to hoodwink the people, and secure
control of the Federal patronage. Already
do We hear mutterings of distrust and an
occasional "d-n Bryan" After the election
next November, William Jennings Bryan
will be held in as little esteem by Southern
Democrats as is Grover Cleveland. 1t is
unnecessary for us to say why.

BRYAN AN EXPANSl0NIST.

In an interview at Minneapolis, on the
10th inst, Mr.. w. ]. Bryan gave bis view 8
on expansion. They are as follows

ment and extension of the limits Of the
Republic. don't mean by that the ex-
tension of the addition of contiguous ter
ritory, nor to limit myself to that.
"Wherever there is people intelligent
enough to form part of this Republic, it
is my belief that they should be taken in.
Wherever there is a people who are
capable of having voice and representa-
ton in this Government, there the limits
of the Republic may be extended.
"The Filipinos are not such a people,"
From this expression it is evident that
the strong expansion sentiment that has
been developing in the Democratic ranks,
especially at the South, has caused Mr..
Bryan to abandon the ultra anti-expansion-

the idea that nothing but contiguous ter
ritory should ever be annexed to our Re-
public, and become part thereof In other
words he has become a complete expan'

THE Legislature of Virginia will abolish
the office of Register of Land Office, now
held by Jno. w. Richardson, of Smyth
county. This is the only department office
held by man from Southwest Virginia,
and, therefore, it is to be abolished. Here
tofore the Valley and Eastern Virgins
have combined and appropriated all the
State offices to themselves. MIR. Richard
son became Register of the Land Office by
appointment, and his Office is now abolish
ed to get rid of him.

ONE of the most exciting bills that Is
now pending before the Virginia Legis-
lature is the one which provides for sepa-
rate cars for the colored and white peo'
pie. The railroad companies do not take
very kindly to the bill, because of the
heavy expense it will entail by requiring
them to provide new cars, and the color
ed citizens are opposed to the measure,
because of an unjust discrimination
against their race. The Legislature is SOL
idly Democratic, made so, to a great ex-
tent, by the colored vote in the eastern
part of the State. If an injustice is done
the colored people by the law, they can
only blame those whom they have helped
to make their representatives.

Fewer lynchinqs.

1t is good news that lynching is de-
creasing in the United States. That
lawlessness in any section of our
country should take such an extreme
form as the summary killing of sus-
pected criminal is shame to our civil
ization: but it is at least encouraging
to know that in 1899 there were fewer
victims of lynching than in any year
during the two decades that full
records have been kept. and only half
as many as there were less than
decade ago. The fiendish atrocities
attending some Of the lynchings dur
ing the past year shocked the whole
world, and the use of the torch as well
as the rope in Georgia, Louisiana, Ken
lucky and Texas brought a thrill of
horror and a blush of shame to every
true American. But the occasions of
mob violence We're fewer. and this
gives us grounds to hope that deeds of
barbaric lawlessness will soon be only
a bitter memory in our fair land.
The Chicago Tribune publishes an
nually a tabulation of the lynchings of
the previous year. and its figures are
regarded as complete and reliable.
Since 1885 this record has been kept,
and the following comparison will be
of much interest:

Reflections OF a Bachelor.

Children are !ife's sunshine, and
childhood's sunshine is faith.
Maternity is the strongest instinct il

A dead man is often stronger rival
than a live one.
To father a child is an echo Of him

echo Of his own fatherhood.
1t is mighty unseIfsh woman who
gives her husband a Christmas present
of new nursing bottle for the baby.
There ought to be a law that would
let children sue their parents as 50 N
as they got old enough for having their
pictures taken when they were babies
without any clothes on.
An old bachelor always hates to call
on people that have just got a new
baby, because he knows he will have
to be such liar that he won't have
any more use for himself, or else, if he
doesn't. they won't have any more use
for him.
Every woman gives more Christmas
presents than she gets. and every man
gets less than he gives.
If the average man was really in love
every time he thought he was the

The unusual duty of electing two
United States senators at one session
of the Legislature Will fall upon
Louisiana. this winter. That state has
been well represented in the upper
body of late, far better represented
than most states south of Mason and
DiXon's line. Senators Caffery and
McEnery are both strong men, up
right and independent. Though both
are Democrats they have frequently
placed patriotism above the partisan
ship that dominates most of their party
colleagues. They have frequently
acted with the Republicans on the
policies of protection and sound money,
and in supporting the administration $
foreign policy. Louisiana is not likely
to do so well By change as by re
turning both senators.

Those are much mistaken who try to
cause an outbreak in Manila on the
occasion Of General Lawton'S funeral
shows the weakness and unpopularity
of American rule. 1t does not indicate
that the insurgents have possession OF
part of the city or that they have any
considerable strength there. Such n
conspiracy may exist anywhere. In
fact, st. Petersburg. the most closely
guarded city in the world. is the hot
bed of frequent conspiracies. The
prompt discovery Of the Manila CON
spiracy and the ease with which it was
crushed shows that the Americans are
vigilant, and that they have friends
among the Filipinos themselves. The
main work in the Philippines is now
being done in Luzon, south of Manila,
the only section where any consider
able bodies of the insurgents are still
assembled If this region is cleared of
their presence as quickly and effective
ly as the rest of the island has been.
there will not be a veStige of resist
ance to American rule when spring
comes. Though Aguinaldo is still at
large. he has no army and his influence
is gone forever. His capture would be
important, but it is still better to catch
the good will of the Filipinos.
