FLIRTING WITH FACTS.
Illustrative Instances of the Way
the Daily Press Gets Things
Twisted.

Some funny things concerning the
paper trade appear in the daily papers
now and then. For example, New
York paper stated recently. that the
ground wood pulp mill at Sault Ste.
Marie has a daily capacity of $4,000
tons, and that sulphite mill of
daily capacity of $4,000 tons is very
near completion.
Another daily paper tells of watches,
chains and all sorts of jewelry having
been picked out of the beating engine
of a mill at St. Joseph, Mich, and says
that once every week, when the beater
is cleaned, the employees of the mill
plunge head-frst into it in search of
valuables, says the Paper Mill.
The impression is conveyed that
handful of jewelry is fshed out on
every occasion.
In the field of daily newspaper work
it is really wonderful that the mis-
takes made are so few. But such mis-
takes as these are not excusable.
A seconds consideration would
show their improbability, not to say
the impossibility, and so prevent the
dissemination of misinformatiOn.

REGAL GOVERNMENT.

Senator John I. Morgan, of Alabama,
is bitterly opposed to the adoption, by the
Constitutional Convention now sitting in
his State, of what is known as the "Grand-
fathers Clause" In peaking of it he
says:
1.-THE transmission of the electoral power
by the blood of inheritance from father to
son would destroy all distinction be-
tween regal government and democracy,
and would throw the door wide open for a
return to the system that the American
revolution abolished. The steps would be
few, and would he rapidly taken, to the
complete restoration of monarchy, so soon
as we give to any class of voters the power
to qualify their sons as voters by inherl-
lance. In this case, it is the first step
that tells, with fatal and irrevocable effect.
The argument is irresistible that offices
should follow the blood, if the power that
creates them is the blood Of inheritance;
and this is all that is meant in the British
system of titled nobility which alone legis'
lates in the House of Lords, and of regal
blood and prerogative which upholds tue
throne, and the power of appointment to
office, which is an appendage of the throne,
and the pardoning power over Which the
people have no control"

WARNED BY HIS SOUP.
Queer Yarn of How an English
Broker Saved His Fortune I'm
Wall Street.

Vermicelli cut into little letters is
a thing commonly found in modern
soup. But it is not often that it
saves a man from financial disaster,
as it did in the following case: An
American visiting England was dining
in London the other day during the
height of the Wall street boom, says
the London Daily News.
The talk turned on that subject,
and the American, who had bought
largely at high figures, maintained
against the general opinion that the
great prices rested on a solid bust
ness basis. Suddenly he saw in the
spoonful of soup which he was rails
ing to his lips four letters, forming
the word Sell" Somewhat shaken
by this, for he was man of a super
stitious turn of mind, he went on
with his soup in a troubled mood,
until only six of the small white cap
itals remained floating in his plate.
They spelled the word Unload"
Hastily rising he excused himself
upon a plea of indisposition, and took
a cab to the nearest open telegraph
office. He cabled to his broker, or
dering the immediate sale of all he
held in railways. AS New York time
is five hours behind our own, the
thing was done before the market
closed. The next day the panic be-
gan. He had got out at the top of
the market.

HIS HAIR STOOD UPON END.
Confronted by Four Mountain Lions
PROPRIETOR Was Badly
Frightened.

up to five years ago." said a pros
pector to a reporter, II didn't believe
in such a thing as a mans hair stand
ing Oh end" and then the old gentle
man told the story of the fright that
led him to change his mind, says the
st. Louis Republic.
81 was in the mountains of Idaho
with a friend and we ran short OF
fresh meat, so one day / took my gun
and started off alone. / went into
ravine and was making my way along
a little brook when / came suddenly
upon a queer sight. Not four feet In
front of me, in the full blaze of the
sun. lay four mountain lions, asleep.
"For half a minute l thought them
dead, but as l stood staring at them
with my heart in my mouth everyone
of them sprang up with a growl. And
they faced around at me, looking
ugly, shifting the air with their whis'
kers drawn back, showing the white
line of their teeth, switching their
tails and looking like demons.
"As for me, | stood rooted to the
spot. / couldn't move, from sheer
fright. A queer, numb sensation be-
gan in my ankles and crept up my
body, and literally felt my hair rise.
I stood there motionless for several
minutes; then one of the beasts
dropped his tail and whined. The
others followed his example. My
presence mystifed them. A few sec
onds later they turned about and
crept away down the raNne, looking
lack stealthily two or three times to
see me.

gan to breathe again. l didn't care
to hunt any more that day and made

my scalp was sore to the touch for

AN Abridged ELECTORATE.

Many foolish suggestions have been
made in tie Constitutional Convention for
the accompaniment Of the ultra ends
on the suffrage question which primarily
called the convention into existance. The
most vicious proposition that has been
placed before the body is that Of Carter
Glass, which looks to having the new
Constitution submitted for ratification to
those only who are qualified to vote un-
der the new organic law. Mr.. Glass is
inspired to this by what he frankly adj
mits 10 be his confident belief that if
the new Constitution if submitted to the
electorate as provided by the existing Con-
stitution it will be crushingly defeated. 1t
is this apprehension that will induce them
and other extreme men in the convention
to violate what Hon. H. D. Flood declares
to be solemn pledge of the Democracy,
made in its State Convention at Norfolk
last year. Mr.. Flood in speaking of the
Glass resolution says: 81 have some re-
gard to solemn pledges and some regard
to law" This declaration is made by Mr..
Flood along with his announced purpose
of opposing the Glass resolution.
Mr.. Glass is now at home, on a sick
leave. AS soon as he returns to the du-
ties of member of the Convention he will
call up his resolution and try to have it
passed. Then we shall have an opportu
nifty to discuss the vicious proposition on
it's merits.

RIGID NORWEGIAN LAWS.
Those Regarding Foreigners So
Strict They May Act az Oe-
terrent to Travellers.

II having become the fashion for the
globe trotter TO take in Norway ana
Sweden as part of his itinerary 1t Is OF
GENERAL interest that a law recently
passed bv the Norwegian government
and which is to become operative in
January, 1902, should be given wide
publicity. All persons whose occupa-
tion il is to receive travellers as night
dodgers are to report the same to the
police, and moreover to keep a list OF
all persons whom they receive. Any
foreigner desiring to preside in Norway,
or to obtain employment in Norway
must report on his arrival his means,
and if required to do so appear before
the local police, says Vogue.
Moreover, the subject of any foreign
state may be refused admittance in
Norway for the following reasons: If
he is found on arrival not to be in pos
session of sufficient means of support,
or without prospects of obtaining law
full employment in Norway; second,
emitting to report himself after ar
rival; third, If he is unprovided with
certificate of residence book when he
ought to have one in his possession;
fourth, this provision refers to those
persons who may have been condemned
in any country for offenses of specified
kinds. Just why such restrictive meas
ures should have been enacted the re-
ports published in this country do not
say, but a little more of such red tape
might act as a deterrent for tourists
who do not wish to be forever pro-
claiming themselves.

An old horse named Patsy had out

TO ROB CITIZENS OF THE BALLOT.

Mr.. Thorn, member of the Constitution
al Convention from the city of Norfolk,
has introduced in the convention a fran.
chise plan, which is based upon property
qualification. 1t proposes that certain
citizens, including the sons of men who are
possessed of $500 of property, shall be
exempt from the operations Of the disfran.
chising features of the law. The Norfolk
Virginian-P Pilot has made vigorous attack
upon Mr.. Thom's suffrage scheme. The
Virginian Pilot is one of the pronounced
Democratic papers in Virginia. and its
criticisms OF the devices that are being
invented to deprive citizens of the right to
vote should be given much consideration.
In part the Virginian-Pilot says
We should like to know what is the
reason for all this nonsense, this wiring in
and wiring out, this beating of brains for a
plan to rob the citizens of the ballot, as
though it were, per Sc, fine and noble
thing? We should like to know what
danger threatens or what necessity urges
that Virginia should bark back century
and quarter, repudiate Thomas Jefferson
and resurrect the benign principles avowed
by George the Third? If the possessions of
the father are to determine the rights Of
the son, why not provide that the son of
every man who is possessed of pied bull
calf or q claybank mule shall be allowed
TO vote? Would there not be just as
much of common sense, of craftsmanship,
of sound public policy in this proposition?
We say to the Democrats Of the Consti'
tutional Convention very plainly that
they are drifting into dangerous waters
In this suffrage matter, and that they
should beware of all plans looking to
the rehabilitation of the Republican
party at the expense of Democratic
principles and Democratic good
faith. The people of the Stde-the mass !

THURSDAY, JULY Is, 1901.
A GOOD TICKET.

The Marion News in the last issue sug'
gests the following State ticket for the Re-
publicans: For Governor, l.. l.. Lewis;
Lieutenant Governor, ]. d. HOnaker;
Attorney General, r. 7, Thorpe.
This would be a fine ticket, and one
which the Republicans could elect, without
fraud prevailed to greater extent than it
has ever done in Virginia. There is no
better man in the State than Judge Lewis.
He would get the vote Of every Republi'
can in Virginia, and would receive the sup
port of many Democrats who have become
disguised with the fraudulent methods of
their party and with the exposures made
during the heated Swanson Montague con-
test.
Mr.. Honaker is one of the most popular
men in the Southwest and by his excel
-
lent record in the last House of Delegates
has won friends in every section OF
the State. He would make things lively
for the opposition in the Ninth District.
Mr.. Thorpe is a lawyer of ability, and
has twice represented the Fourth Virginia
District in the Congress of the United
States. In fact he would now be repre-
setting that District but for the persistent,
systematic Democratic frauds which con-
strained him to cease being candidate.
There never was time in the history OF
the Republican party in Virginia when it
should be more careful in the selection OF
its candidates for Governor, Lieutenant
Governor and Attorney General. Mere
politicians, so-called orators and persistent
Office seekers should be ignored. With
men of high political and business char
acter as our candidates We can win. With
men who have unsavory records the effort
to win will be waste of time.

Laugh Heartily and Live Long.

The disconnected worries of a mo-
rose person may very likely shorten
his days, and the general justice Of
natures arrangement provides that
his early departure should entail no
long regrets, says British medical
journal. On the other hand, the man
who can laugh keeps his health. To
be perfectly healthy laughter comes
often. Too commonly, though, as
childhood is left behind, the habit fails,
and half smile is the best that visits
the thought-lined mouth of a modern
man or woman. People become more
and more burdened with the accumula-
tons of knowledge and with the weigh
ing responsibilities of life, but they
should still spare time to laugh.

THE SNOB IN SOCIETY.
American Said to BE n Different Crea-
ture from His British
Cousin.

The accepted definition of "snoD,'
together with its attendant adjective,
"snobbish," is not the same in America
is in England. On the other side 1t
means social pretense of some KIND,
and Thackery has shown under that
head what a great variety Of the spe-
cies there is. But with us it does not
unnecessarily include pretense. When
we call n person a snob the idea is in
tended to be conveyed is that he or
she is ultra exclusive and wishes to as
sociate only with persons who are con-
sidered very smart. In fact, to be
smart" person must necessarily be
somewhat snobbish, according to the
American eXclusiveness is even more
necessary than in places where the
lines are defined by rank, says the New
York Tribune. The so-called Four
Hundred is, as everyone knows, d.
vided up into any number of sets and
cliques, but, nevertheless, despite as
sertions to the contrary, there is al
ways one set that is fashionable para
mount. That is to say, invitations
from its leaders are more priced than
any others, and to be admitted within
it's limits is a coveted honor. And here
we come back to our accepted defini-
ton of the word "snob." People who
make an effort to get into this society
and by so doing overlook and neglect
old friends, are termed snobbish, while
the members themselves, who have no
desire to enlarge their small cOterie,
or 10 hide their indifference to the
world at large, come under the same
classification. Thackeray's people,
with their miserable little attempts to
pass themselves off for other than they
are (and we safely assert that there
are more of that ilk in England than
America), we could call cads-so that
the use of either term by an American
does not necessarily convey the same
idea as when spoken by an English
man,

Evolution of the Hat.

According to the Washington Times,
the hat of the modern American is a
more or less direct descendant from
the ancient helmet. The shape of a
derby could have been evolved from
nothing else, and it has little save ira
dition to recommend 1t. 1t is not beau
tiful or comfortable, as compared
with the cowboys soft felt hat or the
cap of the European peasant. 1t does
not keep the ears warm, nor stay on
with any degree of success, and it goes
out of fashion every season, reappear-
ing later in a slightly different form.
It's sole recommendation is the tradi-
ton that it is the proper headgear for
civilized and enlightened man; and
when it is cooked on one side Of the
head of a rowdy it does not make him
look either civilized or cultured.
