Gen. Sir Evelyn Wood, commander
of the British Second Army Corps. has
just entered upon his f1fty-first year of
service, having received his first ap-
polntment in the royal navy on the
18th of April, 1852, when little more
than IA years of age.
Miss Lillian Thomas has arrived in
Washington with her oil portrait of
President Mckinley. The late President
sat for this portrait just before leaving
for his Western trip. and it was the
last time he sat for a portrait. 1t will
be exhibited at the Corcoran Art Gal
ley.

jerome C. Knowlton, professor of
law in the University of Michigan. tells
a story of the time when United States
Senator Quarles of Wisconsin was a
student. One morning Quarles went to
his class in chemistry without haV-

professor asked the students to recite in
the order in which they were seated,
and Quarles hid behind a youth of mas
sive frame. But the professor knew
he was there, and when it came to his
turn the old gentleman called out in a
shrill tone: "Quarles, your ears are too
long to hide there"

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Memphis Morning News (Dem.)
says: "Tillman's assertion that the
white man must rule astonishes New
England, yet no negroes are in office
there and the haunting ghosts of the
slaughtered Indian aborigines tell the
story of an alien race at the mercy
of the sanctimonious Puritan. The In
dams were annihilated and the ne
groes are not assimilated."
The Richmond News (Dem.) says:
"Supposing that Mr.. Lincoln had writ
ten the one word union at the Hamp-
ton Roads conference as the basis of
negotiation, how could the Cbnfed-
crate commissioners have accepted it,
as Senator Vest says they would have
done? The word rejected the idea of
the right of secession; and that is what
we have always understood the South
ern states were fighting for"
The Chicago Chronicle CDem.) says:
There is at least one very cheering
piece of news from the national CAPT.
tai. 1t is that there is no longer
ghost of a chance for the Hanna-Payne
subsidy bill. at least during tRe pres
ent session of Congress- and probably
not at any time. 1t is the steamship
merger that has done it. congressman
are satisfied that it will not do to vote
money to that huge combine. at least
so long as elections are impending We
are indebted to this great combine of
Laborer Morgan, therefore, for one
good result"
The New Orleans Picayune (Dem.)
says: THE Congress that is charged
with fathering the Food Trust is Re-
publican Congress. 1t can give imme-
date relief to the people, if it will.
by admitting- foreign meats and but
ter free of duty. If il viii not do this
plain duty and give this necessary re-
lief, the American people will know
that it is the Republican party that is
assisting 10 starve them. and those
same people should go 20 the polls and
kill the party of starvation and oppres-
sion. That is all of it,"

ENCOURAGEMENT.

Charles Battell Loomis, the author
and lecturer, in recent article in the
Saturday Evening Post tells a little
bit of a narrative with a large moral
to 1t. 1t is about a young man who
once wrote a. story. 1t was accepted
by and published in a magazine, and
made quite a hit. But the young man
was not quite sure it was a good story.
He wanted somebody who was COM
petent to speak to tell him it was meri-
torious; to set his fears at rest; to en-
courage him to go on and write more
But not a soul of all his readers said
one word to him about the matter.
He became discouraged and went into
a business for which he was totally
untitled, and his life was a failure.
That, in substance, is the story. The
moral of it is: ANY nattery is far
too much flattery, but sincere and dis
eliminating praise is what makes the
wheels go round. Don't withhold it,"
This moral is applicable in every line
of human endeavor. Discriminating
praise is one of the most powerful
stimulants to higher endeavors and
loftier purposes. Unfortunately a great
many of those who are in a position to
bestow it are blind to that fact. They
go rather upon the principle that any
criticism must be necessarily adverse
and severe, and that the best way to
improve struggler is to find as much
fault as possible, and rub it in as
hard as possible every time a fault is
found. Good points, creditable achieve
ments, are never mentioned they are
regarded as matter of course; but let
an error occur, and there is the mis-
chief to pay at once. Many a poor
working boy and girl has sobbed his or
her heart out on the pillow at night
because the employer had not only ne
elected to commend some meritorious
deed of the day but had actually been
brutal because of some picayunish
oversight or shortening not actually
worth a moments thought. Nothing
can be more discouraging to conscien-
tious, loyal, painstaking endeavor on
the part of an employe than the total
lack of appreciation and sympathy on
the part of the employer. And the
same is true of the scholar and his
teacher; of the author and the painter
and their public.
Sincere and discriminating praise. a
few words of encourag cement well
timed, may not make the wheels go
round" but it will unquestionabIy
make them run much smoother and do
more and better work.

No Color Line Drawn

Lamar Landon of Georgia was hold
ing forth last week at an informal
reunion of the Southern Society in
Sherrys, says the New York Times.
one of the tales of the South that he
told was this:
"A Northerner who had never been
below Mason and Dixon's line went
down last winter. Guided through the
country by an old negro, they reached
the edge of a stream, and the traveller
said to the darkey:
What is that dark object in the
water?'
oh, OATS a alligatah, sah,' was the
reply.
And what is that other dark thing
over there on the sand?' was asked,
OATS a alligatah, too, sah, the
guide answe d.
Then these alligators of yours are
amphibious creatures, are they? quer-
led the Northerner.
The old negro scratched his head.
pondered deeply, finally smiled know
ingly. and answered:
oh, yes, sab; yes sab. Course dey's
amphiblous. Dey eats niggers jes de
same as white folks"

A Street Chr Incident.

A conductor on Broadway car had
refused to take transfer the other
day on the ground that it was too
long after the hour punched, says the
New York Times. The passenger was
politely told that under the rules he
could not accept the transfer, and that
he would have to pay his fare or
leave the car.
"I'll not pay and I'll not leave the
car" said the passenger savagely.
IN pay for you, then" said the con-
ductor ringing up the fare. I'D rath-
er lose cents than wrangle with a
passenger"
This would doubtless have closed the
incident had not the irate passenger
seen ABE" Hummel sitting opposite
him. To him the irate one appealed to
know if he was right or wrong in re-
fusing to pay his fare.
DO you wish my legal advice?"
asked Mr.. Hummel, with a show of
gravity.
Il do"
Il never give legal advice without
a fee"
well, here's a five-dollar BILL" said
the passenger. peeling off a bill from
a big roll, and handing it to Mr.. Hum
mel who promptly accepted it.
MY advice is-pay your fare or get
off the car"
rs that all?"
No" replied Mr.. Hummel Then,
calling the conductor and handing him
the bill. he remarked. 1T is certainly
worth that much money to find and
reward a gentlemanly conductor"

why They Went.

Representative De Graffenried of
Texas, who is one of the best story
tellers in the House, was sitting at
lunch yesterday when he sampled some
very warm horse-radish. says the
Washington Post. The tears came in
his eyes.
That reminds me-" he said to the
congressman who were gathered around
the table, "of the man down in my
county who sampled tabasco sauce for
the first time. He filled a spoon with
the hot mixture and drank it. His
eyes at once filled with tears.
What are you crying for?' asked
his companion.
My mother is dead was the re-
ply.
"A few minutes later he induced his
companion to try the tabasco. When
his friends eyes became watery. he
asked him why he was crying.
Because you did not die when
your mother did, said his companion.

A Kindly Act.

A leaky spigot, a big dog and a
tramp taught the passing throng on
F street the other morning a little
lesson in humanity, says the Washing
ton Star. The big dog had on no COL
lar. He, like the tramp, was battling
for simple existence. He had come
to the spigot for drink. Just enough
water leaked from it into the catch
basin beneath to whet his appetite
without gratifying it. His eye would
follow drop with lightning rapidity
down through the grated basin. He
would then look up at the spigot most
wistfully. OF the passing crowd there
was none who noticed him until a
knight of the road" with a tightly
rolled blanket flung over his shoulder,
slouched past the corner of Thirteenth
and F streets. Before he had crossed
the street he saw the dog and inter-
preted at once his silent appeal. He
went straight to the spigot and turned
the water on full force, holding it I'M
til the dogs thirst had been quenched
The two trampS then sauntered off

ing to the New York Sun. 81 over
heard a dispute between two darkies
as to the color of the skin of certain
biblical personages. I won't attempt to
give you their dialect. One declared
with much vehemence that the apostles
were all negroes, and to prove his
case told of the geographical position
of Palestine as compared with Africa,
They are all colored persons in Africa,
he said, and Africa is right near Pal
estine. Peter and all the apostles were
black men, and know it,
They were not black men,, replied
the other, and Peter was as white
as that northern gentleman over there.
" What makes you so sure that
Peter wasn't a colored gentleman? p
asked his adversary.
Well, if Peter had been a colored
gentleman that cock wouldn't have
crowed more than once"

An Unconscious Actor.

Acting must be very convincing
when members of the audience forget
the fact that they are witnessing a

of this watch happened a couple of
weeks ago.

THE CASE AGAINST THE BEEF
TRUST.

Can the government sustain its al
| legations against the beef trust, as
suming that there is such a trust ?
| They are sweeping and positive. If
they are true it is not to be wondered
| at that the meat packers are million
| aires many times over, notwithstand-
| ing the fact that it has not been so
very long ago that some of them were
day laborers.
According to the allegations the trust
conspired not only to get cattle at its
own prices, but it made the railroads
pay tribute. and then fixed the prices
which the public had to pay for meat
at what it pleased. The whole story
is told in the bill of the government
which was filed in the United States
circuit court in Illinois yesterday. The
cattle men have as good ground to
complain of the trust as the public,
and the railroads will doubtless be
glad that there is a prospect of their
getting out of the trusts grasp.
Soon after it was announced that
the President had ordered suit brought
against the packers, to test the ques
ton as to whether or not they were
in a combination to gouge the public,
they put out a statement through
some of their dependencies, in which
the statement was made that there
was no foundation for the charge that
they were in a trust. This statement
was made with considerable show of
Indignation. Now it is to be tested
whether or not that statement was
correct. If it should prove not to be
public sentiment will be more bitter
against the trust than if it had said
nothing. There will be lacking that
respect for it that there is for those
trusts which have not hesitated to
make their affairs public.
Business interests in Chicago have
asked that the suit be pressed to
hearing as quickly as possible, because
it is interfering with trade greatly.
1t is to be presumed that the govern
ment will be ready as soon as the pack
ers are for the trial. 1t has asked
for documents and books which are
supposed to be in the custody of the
trust. There may be a squabble over
this request. In the end. however,
the government is bound to have its
way.
limitations were thrown out some
time ago that the government was not
in earnest in bringing suits against
the railroad merger or trust and the
beef trust, but that after public clamor
had subsidized the prosecution of the
suits would not be very vigorous, if
not entirely abandoned. 1t looks as if
this view were wrong. The indica-
lions are that the suits against the
railroad monopoly and the beef mo-
nopoly will be pressed vigorously. The
public is so deeply interested in both
suits that the government would be
severely condemned If it should be
discovered that it was not acting hon
estly in its effort to enforce the law
against trusts.
