Iected in the Philippines.
To permit some adaptabihty of methods
in accordance with the conditions
confronted in each case it is de-
sirable that Congress should have as free
a legislative hand as possible, not in order
that we of the United States may crafty
our tyrannical instincts by placing des-
potic heel upon the neck of Asiatic mil
lions, but in order that the most valued
rights and privileges, the ingralned SEN
tments and traditions of these millions
may be to the limit of national safety re-
spected end protected.
American protection and guardianship
of the Filipinos should be as a light,
strong, easily fitting coat -of-nail, and not
as uniform, unyielding, cramping strait
Jacket. The interests and welfare of the
Filipinos very clearly demands consld'
cradle hexibility in the government and
laws applied to them, which will be i'm
possible if the islands are subjected to the
constitutional limitation concerning uni
formity of duties and the other restrictive
provisions applicable to the States OF the
Union.

PERSONAL NOTES.

William Dean Howells is a lover of
whist and chess. In one of these two
games he finds recreation nearly every
evening.
William Smith, who died at North
Attleboro, Mass, the other day, was
quartermaster of the Kearsarge in the
War Of the Rebellion and had charge of
the pivot gun that sealed the fate of the
Alabama.
The bachelorhood of Governor Dietrich,
of Nebraska, has caused him no little EN-
barrassment, not day going by without
bringing him proposal of marriage from
some part of the State or country.
Dr. w. j. Humphreys, assistant instruc-
tor ip physics in the University of Vir.
ginia, is to be one of the party of scientists
to be sent by the Naval Observatory to
Sumatra to observe the eclipse of the sun
on May 18.
Vice. Admiral Barrera, maritime project
of Brest, has reached the age limit and
retired from the French navy. He is one
of the few Frenchmen knighted by an
English monarch. Victoria .knighted
him for his services at the wreck of the
Drummond Castle.
Congressman Shattuck, of Ohio, las a
weakness for brightly cololed waistcoats,
although in other respects he dresses
quietly His seat in the House is on the
front row on the Republican side, and he
says he wears bright vests to catch the
Speakers eye.
Much has lately been written of Edward
Wis connection with certain leading
Jewish families of London. In 1881 he
was the first member of an English royal
family to attend Jewish wedding. This
was at the Central Synagogue, when Leo
pold de Rothschhd married Mile. Marie
Perugia. He also witnessed the marriage
contract together with Baron Alphonse de
Rothschild.
Senator Platt;s of Connecticut, suffers
from insomnia. He says somebody has
suggested the following cure which, how
ever, he does not intend to try. "When
you can't sleep get up and take drink
of whisky. Go back to bed and wait half
an hour. If you are still wakeful take
another drink aud repeat at intervals of
thirty minutes. By and by you won't
care whether you go to sleep or not"

THE CHINESE DISCUSSION.
From Philadelphia Press. ]

From Philadelphia Press.
The Chinese court and the Chinese en-
voys have read the protocol to small I'M
Outstanding of it if they think that the
signing of its twelve articles means the
withdrawal of European troops. That
they so believeis improbable, though it is
not improbable that they pretend to un-
derstand the articles in that way. How
ever, though the period of interminable
discussions as to what each article means
is now upon US, the issues may be cut
clean as a Gordian knot some day when
it dawns OH the court that by prolonging
the dispute they prolong the European oc'
cupation and put off the day of the return
to Picking, as we'll as adding enormously
to the indemnity.
What is happening now is exactly what
happened last summer. The court is torn
in its mind by contrary advisers. How
long it will take those friendly to COM
mon sense, practical understanding with
the foreign powers to impress their views
on the court cannot he ascertalned. AS
the conditions which the allies have i'm
posed are not onerous for China in view
of all that might have been demanded It
s clear sooner or later Prince Ching and
Lii Hung Chang will have their way, and
tie court will suddenly find it can easily
do everything that is asked of it, even to
the punishment of General Tung and the
degradation of Prince Tuan, whose pro.
tectlng claim of royal descent is believed
to be convenient fiction.
The question after all is not so much
~hat the court will agree to as to what the
powers will hold to. If the ENJOYS Of the
Western powers are taking advantage of
the recalcitrance and vacillation Of the
Chinese to arrange plan Of procedure
among themselves there will be little time
lost when the day Of reckoning arrives.
AS they are not of one mind now the be-
havior of the Chinese court is not an I'M
mixed evil, for it may impress on the for
eign ENJOYS as well as on their home Gov
ernments the necessity of united action on
the main issues. When there is this unity
it is in accordance with past precedeDts to
believe that the Chinese will submit to the
inevitable, and not tardily.

QUEEN VICTORIA.

The death of Queen Victoria occurred
SO late last week that we were unable to
say anything edtorialy about the life and
death of one of the best and most remark
able women the world has ever known.
For sixty-four years she was -emeinent
among queens and women. Her life and
reign were not only the most illustrOus of
the last century but the most illustrous in
the history of England. 1t was under her
reign that the British Empire became the
great power it is, in commercial as well as
international affairs.
Though Queen Victoria was never re-
garded as woman of brilliant intellect,
she was endowed with broad and careful
mind that made her a masterful force
among soyereigns and statesmen. 1t was
at the beginning Of her reign that consti
tutionalism was firmly established IN the
United Kingdom, and none of her subjects
paid higher respect to the law than did
their Queen.
In social and domestic life the Queen
was as pre- eminent as she was as a ruler in
public affairs. Her purity of thought and
action we're impressed not only upon her
immediate associates and circle but found
Judgement IN the hearts of her own sub
jects and of all the virtuous and phila1.
thropic people of the world She was not
only a sovereign but good, virtuous
Christian woman; and her life inspired
higher respect for monarchial government
than had the life off any previous monarch.
The splendid and benefcent reign Of
Victoria has come to an end under the
supreme power of the memorable destroyer
death; but that reign had been greater in
years than ever attained by any former
King or Queen.
We take it for granted that all good peo'
pie throughout the world heard with deep
regret of the death of the good and great
Queen, Victoria. Among the English
speaking people we know there has been
profound sorrow.

OUR SWEAT SYSTEM.
Anywhere from Two to Twenty-Eight
Miles of Sweat Glands on
the Human Body.

1t may be interesting to know that
one perspires more on the right side
of the body than on the left, and that
the skin of the palm Of the hand ex-
cretes four and half times as much
proportionately to the surface as the
skin of the back. The pores in the
ridges of the palm number as many as
5000 to the square inch. They are
scarcest on the back, where there are
only 400 to the square inch. These
pores are not simple holes or perfora-
tions in the hide, as some imagine, but
are little pockets lined with the same
epithelium or pavement stuff that COW
ers the exterior of the body. They run
straight down into the deepest struc-
ture of the skin, and there they kink up
and coil around till they look like a
fishing line that has been thrown down
wet. Inclosed in this knot are little
veins that leak the perspiration
through the walls of the tube, and it
wells up to the surface of the skin. 1t
is estimated thatthe average-sized man
has 100000 of these sweat glands, ag-
gregating 2s miles of tubing. Think of
it! Twenty-eight miles if all those tiny
tubes could be Strengthened out and
put end to end These figures, won
derful though they may seem, are on
the very best medical authority. They
are the figures of men who have given
their lives to the study of this subject.
But still, if they seem too large to you,
there is just as good medical authority
for the statement that there are z, 400,-
600 sweat glands on the human body.
each one-ffteenth of an inch long, and
that their aggregate length is two
miles and a half! Think of it! Two
miles and half! If you object to that
too, have the very best authority for
the statement that they are one-quar-
ter of an inch long and aggregate more
than nine miles, or 1 can figure it for
you at seven miles or ~ miles. Take
your pick. Our motto Isl 1--WE aim
to please" If one figure suits you more
than another, it's yours. We can sub
stantiate it by the very best medical
authority, says Harvey Sutherland, in
Ainslee's.
1 find only one figure, however, for
the amount of liquid secreted by the
skin of an average person in a year,
though it is evident that the quantity
must vary greatly according as the
person works in an icehouse or rides
a bicycle uphill. From the average
person in years time there oozes
through the pores of the skin 1900
pounds of water. Let us see: "a pint's
a pound the world around" two pints
make one quart, four quarts one gallon
oh, well, you cipher it out for your
self. 1 never was much of hand at
figures.

official seal and placed in sealed packages
at meeting of the electoral board as re-
quired by law. The printing was no, COM
pleted until Monday, the 9Th of Novem-
ber the day before the election; but an
order was entered on the minutes of the
electoral board on Saturday, the 3rd of
November, stating that two members OF
the board and the county judge were pres
ent. This entry WAS made by one of the
members of the board, who signed the
name of another as acting chairman who
was not present The county judge, we
are told, wrote an affidavit, in his own
handwriting, and signed tin which afii-
davit he stated that the ballots were count
ed, stamped and placed in sealed packages
in bis presence. This was two days before
the printing of the ballots was completed
The member of the board who entered
this minute admitted it was not true
record, but said he lust entered it be-
cause it was the usual FORM" not because
it was the truth.
The press reports state that Judge Rhea
declares he is well pleased with the devel-
opments that have already been made in
the depositious taken in the contest. AS
other similar interesting facts are brought
out during the progress of the contest, no
doubt, Mr.. Rhea will be filled with pride
and delight 1t will, perhaps, be estab
ished beyond question that Rhes, Stone
and Smith are the champion ballot de-
signers of the world. Some men may
take pride in such a reputation. Honest
Democrats, "what think ye? '

SCHOOL AND CHURCH.

In 1890 there were in India only 7o7
ordained Indian ministers of the Cos
pei, but last year there were 1,o1O.
A Christian Endeavor society at
Cape Nome, Alaska, has resulted in
the organization of a Presbyterian
church by Rev. Lyman Scroggs. Rev
Sheldon jackson, d. D., assisted in the
organization and Gov Brady was pres
ent.
1t is said in Boston that one is al
most sure to see Rev. E. e. Hale on
the street in the vicinity of the Uni
tartan building some time every Mon
day morning. He does not seem to
have grown a day older IN the last
10 years.
The" Old First" Presbyterian church
of New York city, of which DR., How.
ard Duffield is pastor, is now open
daily for prayer and meditation, dis
tinction which it shares with few
churches outside of the Roman Catho.
lie and Anglican communions.
A social movement in New York city
deserving of notice is the proposition
of the Suburban Home company to
build new model tenements for col
ored people to be rented at the same
price as to white people. Heretofore
colored families have been obliged to
pay from three to five dollars a month
more for inferior apartments than
white people.
One of the most learned British
ecclesiastics is Rt. Rev. Brooke Foss
Westcott, D. d., bishop of Durham.
His salary is $4,000, of which he gives
more than two-thirds to charity. The
bishop is a great favorite with the
prince of Wales, who once said OF
him: 81 only allow three persons to
lecture me-my mother my wife and
the bishop of Durham"
A suggestion in regard to school
hygiene has been made by the dis
trict government of Cologne. 1t is to
the effect that the country school
boards provide an appropriate number
of felt and wooden shoes to be placed
at the disposal Of the children. By
this system those who come from a
distance with wet footgear will have
an opportunity to exchange it for dry
shoes.

Potash soap for Eve Glasses.

Constant wearers of eyeglasses,
spectacles, ETC., are much annoyed by
the dimming of the glasses upon en-
tering a warm room from a cooler
place. 1t will greatly interest them
to know that this evil can be obvi-
ated by rubbing the glasses with soft
soap. All that is necessary is to rub
every morning or before going out a
little so-called green soap (washing
soap, potash soap) over the whole sur
face of the glass, polishing it until it
is bright again. The preparations,
"Gasolin" and "Oculustra," offered for
the same purpose at high prices, are
nothing else than pure potash soap
