nevertheless always Shocking" them.
As usual the two women were late to the
club that day. Not carelessness or in
attention was to blame. but the fact
that they had stopped at the book store
on the way to the club, and had become
engrossed in the new books and maya
zines For the first time they had seen
the June number of the Phillistine,,
which even the traducers of Fra Ebert
ua must admit is literary gem. Buy
ing II copy, they walked down the street
reading the various articles in 1t, until
they came to the unpublished letter OF
Byron, when they came to a dead halt
Lovers of Byron that they were, all UNI
mindful of those who might be watching
them, they sat upon an inviting lawn
and read the beautif lines which may or
may not have been written by Byron,
but which were written by one who
knew the human heart. Let us read 1t
TO them" one of them said, and slsS
smiled, but the smile was only to hide
the tear which came to her eye, as she
thought of the morals to degeneratesi
tales which the droning world is 80 fond
of pointing "Oh, they would never I'M
derstand." the other said, as they hur-
red on. But they did read 1t, neverthe-
less. and ii was the hostess who asked
one of the woman who was not conser-
vative. when the other was half way
thru the reading. What is the title Of
this article?" Ofcourse she might have
known what it was if she had not been
so busy making French knot in her
centerpiece. but what can the Woman't
Club claim for possession OF apprecis.

an would rather sit and make FreRch
knot than to listen to a letter written by
Lord Byron, or one who knew the hu-

The year 1894 was the dryest that has
ever been known in the history cf the
state since records have been kept. The

was only 2O.06 inches. So for this year
l2.ll inches have fallen.

viewed as complete Cummirs victory
When Cummins ran for senator the sup
port of that county was kept away from
him by rushing gangs of gravel train

Fair and colder THURSDAY.

SOME Americans are becoming
much wrought up by the various
comments of editors of the English
press on the prospective action Of
their government regarding the Hay
Pauncefote treaty, as amended in
respect to the isthmian canal. 9th.
ers pretend to lay little stress upon
what these newspaper men may say,
arguing that they are only individual
opinions Of private citizens. This
latter is true, but they make mis-
take if, as pretended, they discount
the weight Of these opinions. The
editor Of an influential psper in these
days yields a greater influence than
many statesmen, because they create
the sentiment which statesmen largely
conform to. Even If this we're not
the case, the opinions of these editors
would sill have much weight, for
they are brilliant and astute men
in nearly sll instances being of
greater ability than the heads of
government. The opinion Of CREST
lawyer carries weight with it though
the exponent of it may in no wise be
connected with the esse or the court
which has it under advisement. 1t is
a mistake for any to discount the
opinions of leading papers on the
grounds that their expressions are
those of only one or more individu-
ais. The past history Of the press
has clearly proven the error, and we
see no indications that a change is
imminent.

is a great deal Of talk about Judge
Whittle, Judge Mann aud Judge Prem
