as it is manifestly sometimes inconye-

neither inconvenient nor bad habits

"Thusaow Weed-the' grsg$ t0Dubii-
can -hoaa and famous political editor
who accompanied Evarts Oh Els mis-
sion, has left on record In his pub
lished autobiography the Potent indu-
ence which Evarts exerted toward h!s
ambassaiorial purpose with the royal
British pair. They had been grateful
for the recent Inequalities shown in
the United States at the north to the
young prince of Wales and they knew
what an active social part in his re-
ception Mr.. Evarts had exercised.
Moreover, the royal couple had emo.
tional instincts against the system OF
human slavery which was behind the
c~onfederacy who desired acknowl-
edgnient Of their belligerency; while
Premier Palmerston was known to be
almost destitute of emotion or instinc-
tive generosity and to be as cold and
selfish in policy as Richelieu. Had
the bellegerency Of the confederacy
been acknowledged as expressly as it
was implicitly granted in the building
Of the Alabama, the ultimate result Of
the rebellion might have been differ

His Great Offices.
Evarts was born in 1918. In crises
when war raged-Evarts demon
strated his patriotism. his intellectual
power, his diplomacy. his profound
knowledge Of international law. AS
the defender of Andrew Johnson and
Henry Ward Beecher, the champion
Of Seward and Hayes. and the success
full advocate of the United States in
the Geneva convention, Mr.. Evarts
proved himself one of the foremost
lawyers of his generation and an
orator of great power. He was attor-
nev-general (1S6S-9), was appointed
secretary of state in 1877 and elected
senator of the United States in 1885.
His was the famous eulogy on Chief
Justice Chase and he gave the cen
tennial address in Philadelphia.
Buried alive in his home on Second
avenue, New York city, almost blind,
bowed by years, was Evarts in his last
years. He graduated at Yale in 1887.
but went to Harvard for his law. He
died poor.
Mr.. Evarts leaves a widow and eight
children. There are four daughters
and the same number of sons. The
latter are Allan, Sherman, the Rev. ID.
Prescott and Maxwell Evarts, and the
daughters are Miss Mary Evarts, Mrs.

A PROGRESSIVE RULER.
Cuestas Of Uruguay Introduces Radical
Reforms,

with a steady hand and a firm in
tention to be a president in fact as
we'll as in name, Cuestas took the
chair. He was tied by no entangling
alliances, and in making up his cabi-
net selected the best material from all
parties. Then he began to rule
Uruguay for Uruguay's benefit, and
with no other end in view. For the
first time in a generation this little ma
ton, hemmed in between the Atlantic
and the Rio de la Plata, had an Exc
cutive who though first of his peoples
good. Government after government
had come to Uruguay's 10000 square
miles, most of them ending in bloody
d~issension, and all of them leaving the
country financially embarrassed. with
nothing save its wonderful prolific re-
sources on which to depend for re-
drawbacks, Uruguay has not only lived
but prospered.
Reforms followed closely in Cues
tas' wake. He found the public offices
filed with salaried employees who aid
little or no work. To the heads of de-
partments he said:
1.-The Office hours of your depart
ment will begin at $50 a. m. and end
4 at p. nj. Your employees must be
kept busy. AS for yourselves. you
must set the example
This was rather a radical change
to easy-going politicians who had
limited their service to the govern
ment to an average of one hour per
day. Then he cut the republics list
of salaried clerks and employees
squarely in half, and by his stern reg
ulations of office routine accomplished
with the remaining force double the
former work. The republics books
carried a long list of officials who
limited their labors to the signing of
salary vouchers. These %sinecures
were abolished. The president him
self set the first example of attention
to the duties of state by p%unctuality.
At once Uruguay's debts began to van
ish, her credit went back to a favor
able condition and there was money lii
the treasury.
The army needed r~enovating. es-
pecially in the pay department, which
unfortunately until that time had been
handled on much the same methods as
that of Spain. Then, roo. there were
various subsidies which drained the
public till. Among them was a great
appropriation to the annual season of
opera at Montevideo. The granting Of
this subsidy meant q host of free seats
to the government officials who en-.
gineered the appropriation, and many
a finely f~eatnered Uruguayan shone in
the boxes and dress circle OF the
Theater Soils simply through his pull
with the france committee of the ma.
tional Legislature.
II will support the opera, said
Cuestas. by taking and paying for two
boxes for the season. and the rest OF
the people may do the same. for the
enterprise must live on the peoples
patronage and he set his vote to the
Observation-Disclosures White in
Ainslee's.
