otto Schultze, stenographer.
writes in the "Brandenburg Schulz
blatt' that Bismarck had a wonderful
memory. when he had delivered
two hours speech, and looked over our
shorthand reports the next day, he re-

used exactly and did not forget them
for years" The novelist Spielhagen
once told Schultze that he could recall
VlVidly every one of the thousands of
persons he had met in his life and ev-

ances, together with their gestures and

says The Review of Reviews, that of

Arthur, Cleveland and Harrison; but

The rejection of the divorce canons
by the convention of the Protestant
Episcopal Church in America seems to
the writer's of the secular press the
eminently proper thing for the conven-
tion to have done. Approval of its
action by the newspapers of the eoun-
try is practically unanimous. There is
some difference as to the attitude the
church should occupy on the question
of marriage and divorce and full ad-
mission that conditions as they obtain
are abominable. There is little dispute
that the stand proposed in the canon
was not the proper one and that it did
not offer much hope of improving con-
ditions.

FnYE,s sn1PPING BILL.

Senator Frye objects to making pub
lie the provisions of the new ship SUBJ
sidy bill which he intends to introduce
into the present Congress. He says he
is afraid that the enemies of the SUBJ
sidy plan for building up our merchant
marine will attack it so vigorously
and viciously that a strong public
sentiment will be created against il be-
fore Congress has a chance to act upon
/ it.
He has good reason to be apprehen-
/ sive that the bill viii not meet with
the approval OF the public. The bill for
substituting ships which occupied SO
large a part of the time of the last ses,
sion OF the last Congress was never a
popular measure, and 1T can be safely
stated that the new bill viii not be-
The people do not believe in taxing
themselves for the purpose Of building
ships. They believe that if our navi-
cation laws should be changed so that
ships could be bought by Americans in
the cheapest market and could have
the right of American registry, it
would not be long before our ship.
yards would have far more than they
could do, and our fleet of merchant
ships would soon be larger than that of
any other people.
There is another reason why it is
believed that subsidies would not do a
great deal towards building up our
merchant marine. 1t is that our fail
ure to extend our commerce is not due
so much to a lack of ships in which
to carry our products and bring back
TO US cargoes from other countries. as
to the refusal of our merchants and
manufacturers to cater to the tastes
of the peoples whose trade we seek.
For instance. We have a very small
part of the trade of Central and South
America. We ought to have pretty
nearly all OF it.
Our merchants know how to get it
without having a great fleet of mer-
chant vessels. The lines of steamers
which now run between New
York and Central and South American.

money invested in them. because thu
1900 -++-A4NS VI IAlOoC COUNTRIES Will not
purchase of us anything more than
they can possibly help. They can make
better bargains-at least get what suits
them better-by dealing with European
merchants and manufacturers.
If our manufacturers should make
just such goods as these Central and
Southern peoples want there would be
little or nothing said about substituting
steamship lines. We published recently
an interview with d gentle
man who visited Central America sew
eral years ago for the purpose of find
ing out why the trade of that section
did not come to this country. He
was not long in discovering that all the
countries to the south of us would
trade with us, provided we would fur
nish them with what they wanted.
Let Senator Frye turn his attention
to our manufacturers and merchants,
pointing out to them what the needs
OF the South American trade are. If
he will adopt this course the trade OF
Central and South America will be
captured by us much sooner than by
the bounty scheme.

The Fable of the Two Humorists.

An Amateur Humorist set out TO en-
terrain Mixed Crowd at a Wayside
Resort, says the Cleveland Plain Deal
er. He succeeded admirably. Nature
had gifted him with a Large Mouth
and with jaws that worked on Ball
Bearings, and when he threw his head
back and Howled at his own wit he

In the Same Crowd was a Profession
al Humorist, whose daily attempts at
fun were copied from Maine to Beer
sheba. Occasionally this licensed joke
chaser Clipped in with an original some
thing that he thought was both Flip
and Catchy. And yet it never even
drew a Smile. At the same time the
amateur would be showing all his teeth
and his soft palate and giving series
of Jubilant Hawhaws that fairly shook
the Virginia Creepers from the porch.
The Professional Humorist, who, con-
trary to the Popular Idea, was not a
Jealous Person. Joined in the General
Smile and on the whole appeared we'll
satisfied with the Pleasing Manner in
which the Jocund Amateurs efforts
were received.
Finally, when everybody's ribs We're
sore with Excessive Laughter, the am
ateur desisted and went his way
When the echo of his Hawhaw Finish
died down in the leafy woods, some
body who knew the Professional said
to him that he supposed all the writers
in his line were intensely envious, and
he really wondered how any man who
joked for a shekel equivalent could sit
by and smile at the Crude Efforts of a
Mere Novice. $3.50 --

DEATH OF MAI. STEWART.

A notable figure has been removed
from Bay street, Savannah's principal
business section. Death has claimed
the courteous, kind-hearted gentleman
and longtime merchant, Maj. James
T. Stewart He will be greatly missed
and deeply mourned. Among those
gentlemen who have been prominent
in the city's commercial life during the
last forty years or more, no one had a
wider acquaintance or larger circle of
friends, nor has any one been more
highly esteemed and respected. Kind
and considerate in all his dealings with
his fellow men, and upright in his
transactions, his reputation for integ-
rity was without a spot or biemish
throughout his career. both as a SOL
dier of the Confederacy and a bust
ness man.
In his social life amiability and hos
pitality made him delightful host and
companion. He knew how to make his
home happy-to fill it with the gladness
which comes from contentment and az
lection. The friends he made, and they
were many chung to him until death
severed the tie.
Among his business contemporaries
there may have been more successful
men, as success is measured in these
days of great fortunes: but none has
left or will leave a cleaner business
record or a more honorable name. In
all the relations of life he was faith
full to highest ideals. A loved and low
ing father, a true gentleman, re-
spected citizen, good man has passed
away. The mourning for him will be
sincere.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Washington Post Qnd) says:
The Post has heretofore referred to
the practical unanimity of the press
of the United States in unsparing con-
demnation of the machines by which
those two great cities are ruled, rob-
bed. and disgraced. Tammany is intol-
cradle, but the Philadelphia orginazi-
ton is worse. If both are defeated in
the November elections, there will be
no mourners outside of their respective
gangs and hangers-on. Indeed, the
most reputable Democrats in New York
and the best elements of the Repub-
lican party of Philadelphia will be
congratulated by their political breth-
rem all over the country"
