THE WAY THEY DO 1T.

Before and after election are periods
of greater changes in the lives OF
politicians than before and after TAX
ing" some nostrum as portrayed in the
features of victims of the patent medi-
cine habit. Consider the case of EX-
Treasurer BARLEY Of Nebraska.
BY the mismanagement OF Treasurer
BARLEY the State Of Nebraska lost
about $750,000 through the failure Of
banks in which the money had been de-
posted. For this he was convicted and
sentenced to the penitentiary for nine
teen years. The Republican Governor
of Nebraska last summer paroled tne
prisoner and he was let out OF the
penitentiary. but without liberty to
leave the State The Democrats attack
I'd this action Of the Governor as favor
ing criminal because OF his wealth
and political influence. When the Re
publican State Convention met in
October it adopted resolution saw
agely denouncing the Governor for his
release OF the prisoner. Alarmed by
this censure of his own party, the Gov
ernor cancelled the parole and returned
BARLEY to prison. This spiked the
guns of the Democrats, and the Re-
publican ticket was elected.
On the last day of December an un-
conditional pardon was issued to con-
Wet BARLEY, and he went free. The
pardon was signed by the Governor
who was nominated by the Republi-
can convention that denounced the
paroling of BARLEY before the election
The denunciation was in October. the
election in November, the pardon in
December.
1t will be two years almost until the
people will have a chance to say what
they think of this ahair and by that
time the incident will have ueen for
gotten.

The EnerRetic Hen.

There was once an Energetic Hen
who paid Strict Attention TO Duty and
never was below the Average in her
Daily Output OF Eggs.
Each time that she Laid an Egg a
Rooster would Crow Justify and excit.

World.
Now, there were Certain Hens that
belonged to the Gossip Brigade. and
they were Filled with Envy because
of This.
So they went to the Energetic Hen
and said;
I'VE think it Just Awful the way
Mr.. Rooster takes all the Credit for

But the Energetic Hen smiled Cheer

aettinr the Mu.lcal pitch.

Musical pitch has curious tendency
TO creep up. 1t Is said that Bach's mu-
sic sounds much differently now from
what it did when Bach wrote 1t, be-
cause the instruments are now pitched
higher. In 1882 1t was found that tho
pitch of high A at the Vienna Court
Opera had crept from the prescribed
435 double vibrations n second to 443,
and In 1855 this number had further In
creased to 400.
Accordingly musical conference
was held. and a resolution was taken
70 re-establish the old pitch of 435 vi
bratlons per second. Upon this an'
nouncement the Reichsanstalt, the i'm
perlal physical and technical institute
of Germany, set up standard instru'
ments and has since tested and cor
rected many hundreds Of tuning forks,
shortening them II they are too low In
pltch and thinning the arms IL they

Truth and Repoae.

A self denial no less austere than the
saints Is demanded OF the scholar. He
must worship truth and foreSo all
things for that and choose defeat and
pain so that his treasure III thought Is
thereby augmented. God offers TO ev'
cry mind it's choice between truth and
repose. Take which you please-you
can never have both.
Between these as pendulum man
oscillates. He in whom the love of re-
pose predominates will accept the first
creed, the first philosophy, he meets,
most likely his fathers. He gets rest,
commodity and reputation. but he
shuts the door Of truth. lie In whom
the love of truth predominates will
keep himself aloof from all moorlngs
and atioat.
He will abstain from dogmatism and
recognize all the opposite negations be-
tween which as walls his being Is
swung. He submits to the inconveni-
ence of suspense and imperfect opln-
ions, but he is candidate for truth as
the other is not and respects the high
est law OF his being.-Emerson's "Es'
