BROKE BLAlNE'S BOOM.

Ex"(sov. Newel1's Medical Opinion
Turned Jersey Delegates.
Friends Of the late William A. New
ell, once Governor of New Jersey, have
recalled an old story in which he figures
as the rock upon which the Presiden-
tial hopes Of James G. Blaine were
wrecked in 1876. The Ex-Governor,
who was physician as we'll as a poll
tician, was delegate to the Republi-
can national convention In that year,
and he was prominent among those
members of the New Jersey delegation
who favored Mr.. Blaine's nomination.
While the struggle for the various
aspirants was In progress, the news
came that Mr.. Blaine had been stricken
with what was variously described as
apoplexy and sunstroke. This event
was eagerly seized upon by the two or
three Jersey delegates who favored Mr..
Conkl1ng. and these, hearing that DR..
Newell had expressed fear that the
effects Of such 'stroke" as Mr.. Blaine
had suffered might seriously and per-
manently affect his mental faculties.

help their candidate. They secured q

when it had met, they called upon the

LAST OF THE BOLivARS,
Death of a Nephew of the Great South
American liberator.

Death of Nephew of the Great South
American Liberator.
When we turn our eyes through the
lens Of South American history and re-
call that bloody struggle for independ-
ence. we behold the shadows Of many
deathless heroes, whose steps along the
corridors Of time have left trailing
cluster Of noble patriots include Miriam
da. Paes, Sucre, Monagas, Bermudez,
Falcon, Vargas and Simon Bolivar,
whose names will live in lmperishable
grandeur as long as the human heart
can cherish deeds Of valor and sentl-
ments Of unalloyed patriotism.
But by tar the most eminent and fore
most man Of that period and the one
who infused his lofty individuality
among all his followers, was Gen.
Simon Bolivar, who has ever since been
known as the Libertador-the Washing
ton of South America. And we'll has he
won such fame, as the idol Of his peo-
pie, the admired hero Of Europe and
America, the conqueror Of Spain, the
liberator Of half continent, and the
founder Of five nations. BY the strange

1880. 4 tardy reversion of national
feeling succeeded, and, twelve years
later, his remains were brought back
to Caracas, and amid the greatest pomp
he was laid to rest In the pantheon of
his native city.
The last direct relative of the Lib
ertador, bearing his family name, has
just died In Caracas, at the extreme
age of 81 years. Ee was Don Fernando

son Of Col. Juan Vicente Bolivar Y

which the smoOth-shaven man never has
to contend with. The styles in boards
and moustaches continually change, too,
and after a man has carefully trained
his moustache and his beard into growing
a certain way a new style is proclaimed,
and then a long series of careful brush
ing, trimming and waxing must be begun
to induce the refractory beard to change
it's shape to accord with the new order
of things. In some towns in the country
the antipathy Of the gentler sex towards
the beard has become so pronounced that
the young women have organized socie-
ties pledged never to kiss any man who
wore such disgusting thing as beard,
and sometimes they have gone to the
length of putting the moustache under
the ban. All these things have doubt
less had their effect. Some have induced
one man to part with his beard, and 9TH
ers have operated to induce other men
with boards to finally expose them to the
remorseless razor Of the barber. The
BARRIERS themselves have always been
friends Of the beard. They have cham
pioned it's virtues in season and out OF
season. In summer they have pointed
out that the beard was protection to
the face against mosquitoes and lies,
while in winter the beard, they contend,
warns the face and protects the nerves
from neuralgia and other pains. Eye
SPECIALISTS also contend that shaving at
fects to some extent the eyes: Old Ger
man doctors always tell young man
affected with weakness Of the eyes to let
his beard and moustache grow, and that
then his eyes will be stronger.
In Germany the women have now be-
gun a crusade against whiskers and are
filling the columns Of the Berlin and the
provincial papers with bellicose commu-
nications insisting that boards and nous
taches must 90. As long as Emperor
William clings to his famous curling
moustache, it Is not to be presumed that
the men Of the empire will consent to
shave their upper lips. But however hope
less a task the anti-beard and moustache

work could not be done by machinery.
From that point his thoughts wandered
on to the wonder why his own books
could not be kept by machinery. He
tried to make bookkeeping machine.
A year ago he produced the three ma
chimes. which are now supplanting
bookkeepers in large establishments.

Lord Kelvin's Long Service.


Lord Kelvin, who is II years Of age,
has the distinction of having occupied
a university chair for a longer consecu-
tive period than any other university
professor now living. In his varsity
days, though tho fact is forgotten,
Lord Kelvin was an athlete Of much
more than ordinary prowess, and at
Cambridge, in spite of the work which
won for him the proud position of Sec
ond wrangler, he found time to win the
"silver sculls." A native Of Belfast,
Sir William Thomson, as the eminent
inventor and electrician was known un-
til 1892, when he was created a baron,
held the chair Of natural philosophy in
Glasgow University from 1916 till 1899,
and with the exception Of Sir G. G.
Stokes he is the oldest Fellow of the

WOMAN FENcER TO WED.

Miss Greta Pomeroy, whose engage

all-around woman athlete in the United
States. At the same time Miss Pom

New York society: Among the feats
which she has to her credit is the kill

shot, Of a grizzly bear near her camp
at Glenwood Springs, Colo. She is also
famous cross-country rider and long

unique claims to distinction in an ath-
