Mckinley is ignoring the republicans
of South Carolina, and appointing
gold democrats of the "Old Plantation
Aristocracy' to all the good federal
positions in that state. Since the
republican party has become the
friend and ally Of English monarchy
the president hopes to collect into its
folds all the old aristocratic fire eaters
of the South who are opposed to the
leadership of Tillman as being too
populistic. If the president can sue
coed in gathering in all those old
barnacles he will he will do the pro-
gressive New Democracy of the coun-
try great favor.

How Conway Figures 1t.

1t remained for John Conway, the
genius of the Norton Champion, to
figure out by mathematical formula
that there is no hell. He does it in
this manner.
Let NJ represent man, S sin, H hell,
70 the age of man in years, and 90 in
finity in years.
NJ S X 20 equals NJ X II X 90
Divide the equation through by NJ
to eliminate the common factor and
you have
S K 10 equals H 90
Required to find the value of He'll
in it. Divide both terms by intinity,
the coefficient of H.
Your algebra teaches you that any
finite quantity divided an infinite
number of times produces the quo
tient O, naught.
The operation is shown thus:
S < 70 equals H
But the Quotieht of the first term is
q cipher, whence
H equals 0

The scandals in Cuba have not yet
been punished although an inyestl-
eating committee has been paid
thousands upon thousands of dollars
to ferret out the frauds. The fact of
the steals has been uncovered, but
the guilty parties are too close to
the president and Mark Hanna to
allow them to be punished. One of
the thieves is the especial protege OF
Perry S. Heath and of course the presl-
dent cannot allow him to be punished.

Never in the history of the country,
since the old reconstruction days has
there been such stories of gross frauds
and such vast stealings in the govern

paper reports daily some new scandal.
But the people voted for that sort OF
thing, so they'll have to stand it four

the other day.
eyes, know that sort of life brings
hurts, smarts and heartaches, to say
nothing of an occasional tempest, but
not be gained in solitude. Life brings
many changes and throws strange peo-
pie together, and it is easy to decide
that some of ones kindred by birth or
by law-especially the latter-are so
uncongenial as to make living with
them uncomfortable.
"Sometimes that is true, but very
rarely. Usually if two persons are
well-meaning-and most people really
do mean we'll at heart-they can grad
ually grow into each others ways, and
by doing so modify individual traits
and habits to the great improvement
of character. We need to have our
sharp corners rubbed off, our little pet
vanities punctured, and most of all to
learn self-control, sweet reasonable
ness and liberation for other peoples
point of view. When persons say to

house and there, pacing back and
forth in the sunshine, wait until her
mother emerged from the shadow.
Here Mrs. Harlow found her when
her sad musings were put away.
"Why, Lefty" she tried to say,
with her wonted brightness, "what
brought you here? I thought I'd slip
down for few minutes, and see if
all was right" But Letitia was not
to be evaded. "You have been think

faded one, long since furrowed by
tears.
"Yes," Mrs. Harlow said, simply,
forgetting her role of cheerfulness.
II just had to come for a little
while. She seems nearer to me in
the old house."
And then Letitia's eyes were

puzzled them sorely.

tears. II do love it SOL" she whis-
