THE PROMINENCE" OF CITIZENS.

Congressman Hull Of Iowa. with his family, went to
Manila It is presumed he went on government trans
port which carries American dgnataries When he
arrived at Manila found the inaugural ceremony which
gave the Philippines its final civil governor about to take
place He was able to secure but ticket to the official
platform him mad, and he submitted to this in
terview: They put down lot Of clerks,
as if were nobody. Do you know who I am? I Con
gresham Hull chairman of the committee military
affairs have made lots of officers, and unmake
them"
Every American newspaper promptly jumped Huh.
The editors are making all kinds him his
clustering interview.
But the military officers in Manila are not making fun
Of him He is chairman Of the committee military af
fairs. and he does have a big hand the making Of
officers.
Where Hull proved the exception in this case was in
letting fireworks of before the inaugural If he
thrown meteor or two at the general charge Of
She ceremonies he would have gotten bushel Of tickets
to the platform. The pyrotechnic display too late
He probably meeky accepted the one ticket and tried
to suppress his indignation, and did temporarily.
Mark Hanna would not have been given one ticket
to the platform, neither would Joe Cannon Grover
Cleveland Tom Reed, Roosevelt Any one Of these
would have scared the tckesbuser death the first
round, and walked off with a family pass
If you have ambition to get the platform, you
want the the gate it early, and know
hard that you are some pumpkins. Bite his head OF
and walk in.
In every audience there are always some very bright
good honorable citizens who occupy back seats.
But they miss whole lot Nobody knows they are
present They do get to drink ice out Of the
pitcher with the orators nor hold their massive brows
up the fierce white light that beats upon rosrum And
they do not appear the newspaper the next morning
among those prominent on the platform"
Prominence" is often manufactured article, it is
frequently badly artificial that We sometimes hope for
the day when great parade headed by the mayor of
Chicago viii be announced and everybody will stay at
home and let his parade by unseen; that great
meet viii be called at which Chauncey Depew viii be ad-
vertsed to speak and the people viii get up lawn social
block away and leave the orator and the
prominent citizen on the platform alone.

DR.. eArLIne,s CHANGE OF BASE.

1t is pleasant learn that DR.. R. J. Calling who in
vented the first rapidfre of modern warfare and
made peace between nations question Of convenience
rather than diplomacy has turned his attention toward
farming machinery and proposes revouoDze existing
agricultural methods.
Instead of those horrd guns DR.. Calling to be
trying to redeem himself and to make his death pillow
softer by figuring the inventor Of pow which,
he asserts viii accomplish from comparative standpoint
the what his gun did the field of battle The
startling claim is made by the great inventor that his pow
under the guidance Of will break the surface Of
30-acre field in a single day.
It is to be hoped that Dr.. Calling viii find the pow-
share business fully remuneratve gun making It is
certainly reputable He yet be able turn from
the awful execution Of his CHASTITY guns to green and
peaceful fields made fruitful by his motor plow The Cat

TIE WAR AGAINST CANCER.

The tragic ending of the tragic life of the Empress
Frederick has given meaning to the pathetic appeal
which King Edward made the other day English medical
to spare effort to combat that other terrible
disease-cancer" Sir James Paget the English
physician once declared that every would have
cancer only he lived long enough but is evident from
the medical comments that there is ground for assert
ing that the disease the increase An English phys
clan who speaks with authority assures the
tray that although the essential nature Of the disease has
far baaled research considerable progress be re
corded during the two decades In notes he
says
Just as the case of consumption, cancer was be
Heved to mainly due to some inherited fault con
stituton and hardly said this hypothesis
engendered desparing practitioner
well the patient The present general belief through
out the British medical profession, support of which
facts might be adduced is that the disease is
first entirely local limited in all probability the
suit Of the growth Of some specific microorgansm The
constitution may possibly have nduenceit Ques-
ton of relative suitability Of soil and seed-but would
appear be nearly important factor in some
other parasitic diseases tuberculosis for example
conclusion follows that the disease is recognized early
enough and is in some accessible part from can
be removed freely by the surgeon should fair
chance that it may recur; and modern improve
mens in diagnosis and methods operation have actually
accomplished this in large numbers of cases If however
precious time is wasted by hestating and temporzng
by submitting to the treatment quacks the malignant
growth not only destroys the part has attacked
particles carried to neighborng glands internal
organs just the seeds of noxous weed may be
tered over the whole garden.
Assuming this view TO be correct the directions in
which improvement may be looked for two-in the
first place the recognition OF the parasite; and secondly
is being done in the of tuberculosis plague
malaria and many other diseases the attainment Of
knowledge concerning its Hehsory the conditions
which favor its growth Until lately the real nature Of
all these disorders was unknown although physicians sus
pected the existence OF morfc germs long before it was
possible TO these under microscope OF cultivate them

AMERICANS IN EuRopE-

London cable says directory of Americans resident
in that city is being prepared and viii contain over
10000 Ten years about 500 Americans attend
ed the Fourth of July reception the American minister
in the British capital this year nearly 5000 We're received
by Ambassador Choate. At Homburg Germany half the
visitors this year reported be Americans and at
Berlin Dresden Munich, Nuremberg and all the Rhine
cities our counrymen said to outnumber the tourists
from all other lands, says the New York Herald
The remarkable extent of American travel in Europe
this year is further indicated by the that with
and larger ocean liners than in any previous years
hundreds Of our people in England the Continent
are unable to secure passage to this side Possibly this
greatly increased volume of American abroad may
help 10 explain the baanceoftrade mystery to which
Professor Bullock Of Williams college, recently called at
enon He tried to reckon up national disbursements
Of all kinds so as to show where the enormous balances
Of trade in our favor for the past five years have gone
and confessed that he could come within 600
Of doing it. But he estimated the yearly expenditures Of
BUR tourists in Europe at about $50 100000
In view Of the facts above stated Professor Bullocks
estimate Of the total amount annually spent in Europe by
Americans is probably far too low.

From residents in different parts

Der of squirrels. both fox and gray
squirrels, this fall and it is believed
they have quit their wooded haunts
to make the city their permanent
abiding place. Some of the squirrels
have been seen about certain homes
for long time and while they are
still timid they venture near enough
so that residents are interested and
amused by the antics of the playful
little fellows. Boys, however, are
not coatent unless they chase or stone
the squirrels wherever they are seen
and they are asked to help in tanning
instead of killing them. They will
then become pets and as long as they
are not molested their number will
increase. Liveryman Joe Smith has
liberated his tame squirrels and they
have taken up quarters in the court
yard. Mr.. Smith states that he will
erect box for them to live in this
winter.

The nir shIn- of the Past.

Gigantic as are the sea monsters de-
vised by the modern shipwright, we
have not reached the dimensions of the
Mannigafual of Tristan legend, whose
masts were SO high that boy sent
aloft to bear a hand" came down a
gray headed man, whose deck was so
spacious that the captain had to gallop
about on horseback TO give his orders
and whose length was so great that
when swinging in the channel her stern
scraped the cliffs of Albion white, while
her bowsprit swept the forts at Calais.
But we have exceeded in some re-
spects the dimensions Of Ptolemy's
great ship. which was 400 feet long, -
feet broad and - feet in depth Of hold
and which carried 1000 rowers and
5000 mariners, besides unnumbered
soldiers and passengers. or the great
ship Of Hero. king of Syracuse, the di-
mansions have not been recorded. but
she was at least as large as Ptolemy's,
considering that her freightage was
go. 900 measures of corn. 10000 jars of
salt fish. 10000 talents weight Of wool
and Of other cargo 10000 talents, in ad-
dition to the provisions required by the
crew" and that she was 50 large no
harbor la Sicily could contain her.
This problem of harbor accommoda-
ton is one that is already troubling
the owners Of modern steam monsters
and is placing a limit on their growth.
