Most people think that hour glass
90 went out Of style years ago." said
4 clerk in Twenty-third street store
to the New York Sun, "aloug with
perukes and knee breeches, but as
matter Of fact we have more calls for
them today than We have had at any
time within the last ten years. That
this renewed popularity Of the hour
glass auEurs its universe acceptance
as timepiece by the ss3tag genera
ton, l am not prepared b say. but II
such a renaissance were tA.Secome az
yured it would be no more surprising
than some of the other recent fads
based on a revival of lost customs.
Anyway a brief study of the hour glass
will do nobody harm. There are thou
sands in this generation who have not
the slightest idea what an hour glass
looks like, and it won't hurt them to
broaden their education little along
certain lines. or the hour glasses sold
at present the three-minute class is in
the lead This glass is used almost
exclusively to measure time in boiling
eggs and its usefulness naturally
places its sale little in advance Of the
more sentimental varieties. Next
come the five, ten and fifteen minute
and full hour glasses. which are
bought chiefly by musicians for piano
practice and by lodges and secret So
cieties. The sand used in an hour
glass is the very finest that the world
affords. The western coast Of Italy
furnishes most of it, as it has done for
ages past. The cost Of hour glasses is
regulated by the ornamentation of the
frames. A glass set in a plain rose
wood case can be bought for 81, while
a mahogany frame comes to $1.5O or
81. OF course, the price can be brought
up still higher by fancy carving and
decoration. Swell lodges sometimes go
to this extra expense, but most people
are satisfied with the cheaper grades"

Hls Ghostly Job Drove Him to the Mad-
house.
It was recently announced that
hangman, who went mad as a result
of his grewsome duties. was dying In
the State Asylum for the Insane At
Napa, Cal. The career Of Lant - q
hangman was remarkable one. and .
full history of his life at the prison
would read like ghastly romance.
For seven years he filled the ofice Of
state executioner, and nineteen mur-
derers were hanged by him. 1t waa
Lunt who threw the moose about the
neck Of Theodore Durant and hasten
ed an execution already unduly pro-
longed. while the murderer from the
scaffold was making his protestations
OF innocence. On this occasion Lunt
was reported as being the coolest man
In the room, with the possible excep-
ton of the condemned man himself On
other occasions Lunt showed a nerve
OF iron. In one morning he hanged
three men and then sauntsred from the
execution room smoking cigarette.
But despite his apparent utter indif-
ference concerning his work IS a man
killer 1t was known my many Of his
intimate friends that in secret he
brooded over 1t. Therefore it caused
little surprise when on falling into a
fortune about two years ago he prompt
ly resigned his position. Some months
later he returned to the position and
resumed his duties as hangman, al
though the prospect OF arranging the
rope on another man seemed to appall
him. He constantly talked about 1t and
brooded over it, and suddenly ono
morning the iron nerve snapped and
he became q hopeless madman.-Otica

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
Whv Band Was Unsuccessful

70 the Editor OF the Evening Journal
Sir: In last nights edition of une
Republican the writer noticed an aIti-
Gle relative to the former band of the
n. G. d.. and thinks it is only just and
right THAT the people should know why
liz was a failure. In the first place, mu-
lsicians were given to believe they were
to have various things, such as uni
forms, etc, which they never received.
They were to be made an allowance Of
a certain amount of money to buy mu-
sic, and they did manage, by dint Of
Ihard persuasion, to finally get enough
music together to give concert The
Officers seemed to think that because
the band was given room rent free, it
lhad all it needed. The writer has been
to relhearsals at the ArmOry when the
janitor would come and stop the re-
hearsal and send the men home like
a lot Of schoolboys just because it hap
pened to be 10 o'clock and he wanted
to go home. / personally have heard
the chief musician offer the services of
the band to the officers for any occa-
sion, free of any charges, which did not
cause the men 10 lose time at their
work
] w ntu the TX HioldANAt maui eA az
lpropriation to send the militia to
Washington, on March 4. 1901, the Off
lcers of the regiment were very angry
att the band because members refused
Iuheir services gratis. When every Off
Icer and private was allowed a certain
amount of money. This would have oc-
lcasioned the band members to lose
two or three days at their work. and
lall for glory The officers tried tC
hire a band from out of town. but were
lurfsuccessfiil and were obliged to take
their own band which was always a
Icredit to the n. G. d.. That event
lseemed to mark the finish Of the Ma
ltionla Guard Band. as a certain higf
lstanding officer had vowed he would
Iput a finish to it, Everything that
have said is true. and ] can prove it

A wild Ride.

Ahpeasant was recentlyS gathering
dry swloOd in n forest near 'Kastamuni
when n bear suddenly appeared before
him. The frightened man sought ref
uge inl the branches of a tree, which
broke, tand the peasant fell at the feet
of the sbear. Bruin was quite overcome
with surprise, so much so that the
peasant, who preserved his presence
Of mind, was instantly astride the
beast, using his ears as bride. The
bear tried Intellectually to throw him
and then, starting on a wild run, issu-
ed from the forest and approached a
village. The rider shouted loudly for
help and in a fewiminutes the whole
population turned out armed with
guns and scythes. A crack shot fired
a bullet, into the bears head, and the
peasantNwas able to fleave his mount
unhurt.--Kastamuni Turkey Official

General Lucban. the most influential
and dangerous insurgent in the Phil
ippines with the general, a lot Of
arms. ammunition and tools for maxi
ing ammunition were taken.
The capture of General Lucban is
rearded as second only in Importance
to the taking OF Aguinaldo. He was
the instigator and prosecutor Of the
worst forms Of rebellion and insurrec-
tion in the Island Of Samar. and he
held that territory in absolute terror
He had the entire population OF the
island practically under his domina-
tion and compelled them to pay trib-
ute TO him for immunity from attack
The military authorities in the Philip
pines have been on his track foi
months and it was only by strategy
that he was finally run down.
This important capture is an indioa-
tion that the Secretary OF War is justi

the Philippine force. The war is pIac

THE GOSPEL OF VIOLENCE

Tillman has Dragged and clustered
for some years. and while the more
thoughtful portion OF our people have
been annoyed and have seen in
the public utterances Of the of
fetal representative OF a great
State a menace 10 law. order and
decency. others have smiled in tolera-
lion and a number have even applaud
ed. For years he has gone on uncheck-
ed. when in an instant he oversteps the
bounds of decency, and his prestige is
gone. his defenders are reduced TO half
hearter apologies, and the tolerance
Of self-rospecting men is withdrawn.
II is an absurd spectacle for any man
10 endeavor to establish a proposition
by a blow. and il is disgusting when
such person is a member of the chief
law-making body OF the world
There was a time when questions Of
honor were settled by a deadly combat
under the idea that physical prowefs
was an assurance Of correctness Of
opinion and motive. Civilization has
shown its progress in no stronger man
her THAN in repudiating the old
idea. IL has taken centuries TO estab-
lish the idea that physical force has no
necessary connection with truth. II
this were not so. we should elect
prizehghters to make our laws. There
49,, "a, ,.,,,,f lfe.-,.,,.,ft,l osbfhfffon
in the Senate may teach its lesson,
which Is 10 the effect that the power
of ideas is not to be limited OF con-
trolled by an engagement of fist-cuffs
In recent years great stress has been
laid upon physical development, and
It's value has been recognized in our
institutions Of learning But the Gre
clan and Roman ideas must not be re-
vived We must not bow down and
worship Drawn and muscle. nor unduly
exah that skill which is physical. The
hero Of the gridiron has settled moth
ing but a contest OF strength and skill
His intellectual standing and that of
his college may be below that OF his
defeated opponent. And likewise a
matter of fact yet remains such, even
though a knockout blow has been
given
People have all sorts of wrong views
on the question of self-defence. and
most persons seem TO think that certain
offensive remarks call for a blow. The
offender may be a brute with more
muscle than brains. but he must be
attacked with physical violence. The
only occasion for self-defence is where
our lives OF property or the lives ol
property OF others are put in jeopardy
On other occasions we may call in a
policeman OF allow a venomous tongu,
to wag on. since II need offend no one
who mas given no cause for abuse. i
is wrong TO teach children never Z,
resent an insult or TO defend them
selves from personal violence, and i
is also wrong 10 teach the gospel tha
truth is established by a blow.
