DEATH OF Ex-PREsrDENT HARR1.

The death of eX-President Harrison will
be universally regretted. He was a man
of positive character, high ideals and
firm convictions. As chief executive of
the nation he surrounded himself with
able men, and gave the country a clean
administration. While he never professed
or displayed Partially towards the South,
he treated this section fairly and justly,
as, indeed. ne did all of the other Sec
lions. He was a strong Republican,
even a partisan while in Office; neverthe-
less he did not permit his craftsmanship
to interfere with his sense of duty to the
public. As a statesman Gen. Harrison
made a reputation in the Senate, which
he added to while in the White House.
His fame as a lawyer was achieved prin-
cipally after he left the presidential Of
fee. He was known before that time as
a good lawyer, but few persons looked up
on him as great one. When ne left the
executive mansion however there were
demands for him in important cases, and
the probabilities are that he received
some of the largest fees ever paid to an
American attorney.

pRYAx.s RECEPTION IN NEW york.

Some of the Republican papers in New
York appear to be nightly pleased be-
cause the politicians, particularly the
Tammany politicians, did not rush in a
body to greet Mr.. Bryan on his arrival
in that city the other day. His recep-
ton was of course far different from that
which he received there just prior to the
presidential election. But the situation
was different. Then Mr.. Bryan was the
presidential candidate of great political
party and popular orator. 1t was believ-
ed that he had an excellent chance of be-
coming President. 1t was but natural
therefore that he should receive greet
ing that attracted attention, because of
its heartiness and the number participant
ing in it, from the whole country.
Now Mr.. Bryan is only a private citizen
with no immediate prospect of becoming
anything more. Naturally the politicians
do not run after him. They run after
only those who have fayors to grant.
Tammany politicians are VIGOROUSLY sell
fish. They do not put themselves out 20
be civil to those who cannot aid them in
any way. Therefore they did not bother
Mr.. Bryan when he arrived in New York.
Those of them he wanted to see he had
to hunt up. He called on the Mayor and
received a hearty welcome. 1t may be
that Mr. Bryan was little disappointed
because the Mayor did not call upon him,
and that other Tammanyites did not show
him some attention. If he was he made
no sign. He is not the sort of a man to
complain when he feels he has been neg
lected.
But why should the Republican papers
of New York express satisfaction be-
cause Mr.. Bryans visit to that city at
tracted no attention? He has always
been courteous to them. Do they think
that because Tammany has apparently no
further use for him there is no probable
ity of his coming to the front again?
They may be disappointed. Mr.. Bryan
has wonderful staying qualities.

Justice Brown and Justice Brewer, are
probably the most popular members of the
bench in fashionable society, says the
National Magazine. They dearly love to
tell jokes on each other. Not long ago
they were guests at the same table, at a
dinner. Justice Brewer was first given the
floor, and launched into witticisms re-
garding the embarrassment to which he
was often put by the fact that their
names looked very much alike when writ
ten carelessly by people. He played upon
various phases of the dilemma, and finally
Justice Brown had a turn.
II have been subjected to the same en-
barrassment. replied Justice Brown.
"Sweetly scented notes intended for my
brother on the bench come to me. But
more than that. Some time ago in a le-
gal case a decision written by my brother
was quoted as an authority and credited
to me. / can well sumbit to receive
Brother Brewers sweetly scented mis-
sives; l even could bear up under paying
some of his bills; but cannot-I certainly
cannot stand for his law"

The funeral reform suggested by the
Rev. Mr.. CoolS-that of keeping the head
covered at the cemetery during funeral
services-is wise and reasonable. 1t fire.
quently occurs that attendants upon flu
nerals return from the cemeteries with
severe colds. contracted from barring
their heads i'm damp and disagreeable
weather, ana shortly thereafter have
themselves to be taken to the cemeteries
1t is no disrespect TO the dead to take
precautions to safeguard the health Of
the living. Another needed reform is in
the matter OF mourning. Many wo-
mans health has been ruined by the
heavy black crepe veil which widows af-
feet; and yet women will persist In wear
ing those health-wreckers because they
fear the criticisms that would be passed
upon them by other women were they
not TO cover themselves from crown to

EXHIBITS AT CHARLESTON.

Indications are cropping out which jus
tlfy the opinion that the fair at Charles
ton will be a very satisfactory one. There
may be some who think that the failure
to secure a government appropriation will
cripple it. If so they are likely to find
that they We're mistaken. Philadelphia
has announced her purpose to make an
exhibit, and there is no doubt it will be
a good one. Baltimore has also signified
her intention to be an exhibitor. Both
cities have large business interests in the
South, and they are going to see to it
that their interests are strengthened. No
doubt there are other cities that will
follow the example of Philadelphia and
Baltimore. The country is just beginning
10 take an interest in the fair In the
course of two or three months Charles
ton will be able, in all probability, to an
nounce that all of her space has been
taken.
Doubtless Savannah would be repre-
scented by an exhibit if it We're not for
Of her own. 1t is not of course quite as
ambitious one as that for which
Charleston is preparing. Sull, it will
take all the money Savannah can spare
to make it worthy of the empire state
Of the South. Georgians are looking to
her 10 give them a fair OF which
they will be proud, and in doing this she
will not have time TO give atten-
ton to outside fairs. While, therefore
she wishes Charleston every success II
is hardly probable that she will be among
| the Charleston exhibitors.

When the canteen was abolished at Fort

quarters express the opinion that the re-

during which a number of soldiers were

A prominent New York banker talking
to a newspaper man a day or two ago
declared Andrew Carnegie to be the rich
est man in the world who had his fortune
capitalized. There are, he said, perhaps
one or two others whose incomes are larg-
er than his-John d. Rockefeller. for in
stance. But these men are in active bus
mess, and their great incomes depend, in
large measure, on the degree of attention
they devote to their affairs. In Mr.. Car
negies case, through the contamination
Of the steel deal, he has succeeded in cap
italizing his colossal fortune. Mr.. Nor
gan and his associates relieve Mr.. Car
negie of the entire burden of business
cares and give him securities to the
amount of $24O 100000 on which he will
draw per cent. interest as long as he
lives. This means an income of $12,0OO.-
