Foraker of Ohio used to be known as a
firebrand. Now he looms up as a peace
agent and the adjuster of differences
within the Republican party The reason
for his change of base is this: The next
Legislature will select a successor to him
in the Senate, and he wants to be that
successor. By posing as the harmony
agent between the factions of the party,
meanwhile stirring them up by denounc-
ing the wickedness of the Southern Dem
ocrats, he hopes to have the friendship
and support of the Hanna faction, the
McKisson faction, and all of the Others
Foraker is for peace or a fight according
to which will best serve his own inter

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New Orleans Picayune Dem) says:
IF the Democrats are WISE in the next
three years they will endeavor to formu-
late a policy upon which all branches of
the now divided and demoralized party
can unite. and they will seek from among
their rank and file a real Democrat who
is broad statesman a sagacious polit-
cal leader and one whose high character
for integrity will command absolute and
universal confidence. That is the sort of
man who is wanted as a standard bearer
for the democracy in 1904. and 10 will be
wise also to choose him from some great
Northern state which the democracy will
probably be able to carry. To be elected
the candidate must carry Northern states.
The South Is too solidly Democratic to
have any Influence in carrying national
elections. The Democrat who can be
elected is the man wanted"
The Memphis Commercial-Appea
CDem) says: "Pettigrew denies that he
has been specializing in stocks He says
he got a tip from a railroad friend. bor-
rowed some money and bought stock out
right. But it has been pointed out that
this is just as much gambling as Il he
had rsked his own money on a margin.
If the stock Pettgrew bought hadn't gone
up he would have been considerably in
debt TO his friend. As a matter of fact,
he risked another mans money on the
chance that the stock would rise He
made million for himself on his friends
money. II strikes us that Pettigrew adds
another TO his laurels as a thorough-go-
ing humbug."
The Philadelphia Record Oem) says:
''In the Populistic view of ex-senator
Butler OF North Carolina, the only means
Of solving the trust problem is in abol-

The Rev. DR.. Henry Irving Rasmus,
pastor Of a Methodist Church in Chicago,
thinks the vacation is a good thing Peo-
pie who work, he says, ought to have
some time to play and recuperate. New
ertheless he cannot overlook the fact that
vacations ere crowded with terrible
temptations. Why, he says, some people
even forget to pray and read their BIZ
bies and go to church when they are on
their vacations. They are so busy hav-
ing gooc time and resting that they
neglect their religious duties until they
get back home again. The result is loss
of spirituality. which the Doctor thinks
is net compensated for by an aocumula-
ton of tan. f:eckles and appetite.

AN ANCIENT FAMILY TREE.
The O'NeiIn OF ireland Took Great
Pride In Their Great
Antiquity.

II. l.. O'Brien, OF Dublin, in speaking
OF the antiquity of some of the Irish
families, according to the New York
Tribune, told the following story:
"There lives in the north of Ireland"
said Mr.. O'Brien, "a family named
0'Neil. Their greatest claim TO prom
inence lies in the fact that they are
the Oldest family in the United King
dom. When Plantagenet, Tudor or
Guelph was not the O'Neil was. They
ruled as kings before even William
looked with covetous eye across the
English channel toward the white
cliffs of Albion. This long line Of de-
scent has bred in the family a rever-
ence for their ancestry that approach
es ~idolatry. The handspring of their
life and action, the pride of their be-
ing is that a long line of dead and long
since forgotten O'Neils carry them
back in the direct line to the dark
ages.
"As may be imagined, their family
tree is colossal in its proportions. 1t
has a length Of something like Is or 10
feet, and when it is unrolled at the
castle a holy hush falls over all. To a
visitor there some years ago was, in
due course of time and as a special
mark of favor, shown this marvellous
pedigree. Stretched on the enormous
billiard table, it Tapped a full three
feet at each end. The visitors eye ran
back over that lengthy line Of O'Neils,
long since turned to dust, and he won
dered why they took so insane a pride
in their descent. Just then he be-
came conscious that that thought had
occurred to other aliens who had be-
foretimes seen the O'Neil family tree.
A penciled note in the margin, about
halfway down the tree, caught his
eye. 1t read: Just here came ADAM"

A SUPPLEMENTED BARON.
The Late willy Won RothschfId Was
True to His Faith and Very
Charitable.

Perhaps the most typical Rothschild
of all his distinguished race was the
late Baron willy" Won Rothschild,
who died recently at Frankfort-on-
the-Main, says a London exchange.
He was noted for the simplicity Of his
life and his extraordinary devotion to
work. When his brother, Baron Meyer
Carl, died in 1856, Baron "Willy" be-
came sole head in Frankfort and at
tended to evcrydetail. great and small,
Of his clearinghouse. He himself
signed every letter and document and
opened all correspondence. Power of
procuration was given in the firm only
a few years ago to facilitate the dis
patch of business. and even then was
made use of only during the baron's
rare absence from Frankfort.
Many stories are told of the bar
on's orthodoxy in religious matters.
The business was always closed on
Saturday, no matter what sacrifices
it might entail. On Sabbaths and
holy days the baron always walked,
riding being forbidden on these days
to the strict Jew. More striking still
was his adherence to the Jewish pre-
cept to give literally a tenth of ones
earnings TO the poor, so that the dispo-
sition Of his bounty gave him much
hard work. A great deal of his char
ity was anonymous. Baron Won Roths-
child was at work on the evening be-
fore the day Of his death. giving per-
sonal attention to the reports Of bust
ness and distribution Of charities. The
funeral a few days later was charac-
terized by absolute absence of dis
play, and even the simplest flowers.
Yet crowds Of people. from personal
friends to the poor he had helped,
thronged the street to witness the
passing of the cortege.

Some of the public men in this
country who occasionally hear from
their constituents may think that
they know what it is to be roasted
but they are ii error. 1t is only in
New South Wales that the lowly
voter has a really trenchant pen and
can express himself properly. In or
der that those serving in an official
capacity in this country may realize
how truly fortunate they are, the
following extract from a letter writ

disappointed once seeker may pc
