SHE'S ALL RIGHT.

Some wise and wary men have feared to see woman enter politics lest her influence there should not be as gentle and beneficent as it is in other things. And there are men who say that this fear has been justified by the way wo- man has carried on in politics wherever she has had a chance. But those who have feared and those who have sneer- ed can find at least a crumb of com fort in what is happening in Williams burg, Massachusetts. There Mrs. Fan nie Guilford Clary is running for the legislature on the prohibition ticket, and this is the way she talks: Now, isn't that nice? How kind every one is to me. Do you know that everyone is so very kind that enjoy being in poll itics? But for all that I want the peo- pie to know that papa, that's my hus- band, is the head of this household. If should be elected a member of the legislature pa would go to Boston with me sure"
 Whats the matter with this woman in politics? If the men and women of Williamsburg do their duty she will be elected, and her gentle and beneficent influence will be felt in Boston, where thera is mrnh need of it.

4 CABLE ACROSS SAHIRz.


 The French are said to be rapidly de- generating, but they still retain enough vigor to have good idea or two, One of their latest schemes is cable across the desert of Sahara. 1t is to run from Tunis to Lake Tchad, a distance of some two thousand miles. A telegraph suspended from poles would always be in danger from the natives, who are unceasingly given to sudden outbreaks against the French soldiers. Moreover, to lay or hang this would be very ex- pensive, because every pole would have to be hauled from Tunis. Again, wireless stations would require garri- sons. To avoid these obstacles to the early construction of a cheap and per- manent electric line, the French gov emment is to employ a sub-surface cable. A specially designed steam plough is to be driven across the desert
 making furroW as it travels, and sim ultaneously laying the cable, which
 owing to the skill of electricians, will
 not be large in diameter A furrow thirty inches deep is to be opened and as fast as the machine moves on there will be workmen, who may be few in number, to cover the cable. It is SUD- posed that the ploughing will proceed at the rate of a mile an hour, for the of ficials expect to strike snags here and there, if not to wait for the working men. When the cable is once down there is small chance of the natives finding it, for the sands of the Sahara

those people are satisfied without change. It is another portion of the na- ton that now asks for tariff reform.
 Bearing that fact in mind, the repub- licans should understand that true ta- riff reformers or a new kind of protec- tiOnists must predominate in the com mission. Their party has never revised the tariff as it now must be revised. It never revised a tariff against the policy of protection. Therefore, sentiment for the party as the friend of high-tariff policy does not come into play here. Provided it be admitted that new pro- tective spirit exists, which will be giv- en place to the exclusion of the old on the presidents commission, the danger from this must be anticipated. Your good republican pretectionist is always seeing something new on which to apply his principle, and a new protectionist will perhaps think that the prejudice against the trusts can be utilized to the advantage of his party. He and his friends will be tempted to discriminate against trusts and in favor of their competitors and other industries. Ger tainly he would be sure to put on as high duty as possible where it would not be productive of an Outcry, and re- move it where it could entail evil to his party A tariff commission, as experi- ence teaches, is not likely to accomplish much; it can ogtain data and make re- commendations; then congress does what it pleases, or what it dares.-Prov- idence Journal

FOR THE SPREAD OF THE GOSPEL

II
 The people in little New Hampshire town are congratulating themselves be- cause they have discovered that while some bread and things they cast on the waters may not return to them they will go somewhere. There lived ill this community two aged sisters whose means of subsistence appeared to be very limited. Their neighbors, how ever, took a friendly and helpful inter- est in. their welfare, and saw to it that they did not lack for the comforts of life One would haul their wood, an- other would cut and split it, and others would contribute of the abundance which the earth supplied, so that in amount and variety these aged women found life by no means a very serious problem. A little time ago they died within few days of each other. Then in the settlement of the affairs of the sisters it was learned that they had left $13,O00 to foreign missions.
 The good people of the town have thus contributed for the salvation of the heathen without really meaning to, and they feel that the Lord moves in a mysterious way his wonders to perform. When the heather hear the story they will owe the town at least vote of thanks.

FOLLOWING 4 GOOD EXAMPLE.

The more the merrier, for awhile, and the sooner the problem will be solved. The Jones and Laughlins Steel com pany of Pittsburg is getting itself mo- ticed. It is now capitalized at S50,000,- 900. A short time ago the amount was only $20,0OO,00O. Yet this concern, with a capitalization one-twenty- eighth that of the United States, Steel corporation, is said to have steel-producing ca pacity one-tenth as large. Possibly, not to say probably, the capital will soon be proportionate to the producing capacity. The company is to follow the example of the Carnegie combine and have it's own railroad from Pittsburg to Lake Erie. It is to be called the Pitts burg, Niles and Western railroad, and will cost $15, OO,OOO. At the same time the concern is a party to the purchase of ore lands in northern Michigan and Minnesota which are estimated to con- tain $6S, ,0O0, 900 worth of iron ore.
 Perhaps when this concern gets big enough and gets capitalization enough it will have to be absorbed by or merg- ed with the United States Steel com pany. When this happens there will be steel securities enough to go around, even if there are not now.

It is said that one of the great enc mics of the overland telegraph line in central Australia is the common green frog, In order to save the insulators from being broken by the lightning they are provided with wire "droppers" leading round them at a little distance to conduct on to the iron pole in case of need. The frogs climb the poles and find the insulators cool and pleasant to their bodies, and fancy that the drop per" is put there to furnish them with a back seat. After a nap they yawn and stretch out a leg until it touches the pole--result, sudden death to the frog, and as the body continues to con-

A remarkable case of substitution is reported from Foo Chow. When a cer- tain childless criminal there was ad- judged to death, his family met to see what could be done. The superstition of the land ran counter to q man dying without leaving a son, at least, to worship him after death. The criminal had brother who had so many sons that he had no fear of being left with out worshippers. The family decided to put him in as a substitute for the childless one, so that the latter could live on to get son. The military man. darin concerned was bought over, the criminal was set free and his guiltless brothers head was cut off The fami- ly, the mandarin and the public were satisfied. But the mandarins superiors did not see it in that light, and inform ed the prefect at the city. He ordered the mandarin to be scourged like com mon coolie.
