CURRENT COMMENT.

The Norfolk (Va.) Landmark Dem.)
says: should it prove to be true that
Mr. Roosevelt's views concerning the
race question and politics have under
gone modification since his recent bear
hunt, the logical deduction will be that
he is smarting from Holt Golfers ILL
concealed contempt of the chief execu-
tive's ability as a hunter"
The New Orleans Picayune (Dem.)
says: There are two or three Demo-
Gratis who are prominent in Congress.
but they are Southern men and cannot
be considered, for the party is already
too lop-sided, as far as the South is
concerned. What is wanted is not a
Southern Democratic party, but a Ma
tional Democratic party, strong in the
principal Northern States as it was in
Cleveland's time, and until Mr.. Bryan's
campaigns, after which there was no
longer a Democratic governor or SEN
ator elected in any Northern state"
The Chicago Tribune (Rep.) says:
There is nothing which demands the
creation of a labor party. There is
nothing In the history of labor parties
in other countries to encourage the for
nation of one in the United States.
Labor can safely look 20 the two ex-
listing parties for justice. 1t is a tri-
butte TO the good sense of the Fedora
ton of Labor as well as to the infiu-
ence of Mr.. Gompers that the major-
ity OF the delegates refused to indorse
the movement TO create a party based
on class feeling"

II has been the earnest endeavor of
new-schooi journalists in this country
to get just as many ''thrills'' into their
paper each day as possible, and to this
end they have not hesitated to make
and fake news of a startling and
thrilling character when none actually
occurreds Now, however. another sort
of new-school journalist has appeared,
in Vienna His purpose will be just
the opposite of that of the yellow
editors of New York and some other
American cities. He will publish a
newspaper for nervous people. All Of
the thrills and shocking details will be
carefully extracted from the news. and
the eruption of volcanoes. the assass-
ination of rulers and the failure of
banks will be clothed in such suave
and smooth language that the person
with high-tension nerves or heart dis
ease may read the story with perfect
assurance that no unhappy re-
suits will follow. The promoter of
this new newspaper will offer large
prizes to writer's who can put the most
sensational stories into the least sensa-
tional language.

"A curious attraction at a public
house near Bromley, England, is a sec
ond-hand coffin. 1t was made by the
village carpenter, who frequently made
cases for Darwin's collection. One day
work being scarce the carpenter asked
for something to do, and was told by
Darwin that he could make him a cof-
fin, which he did. The body of OAR
win Is said to have lain in it for two
days before his burial in Westmin-
ster Abbey was decided upon. y new
coffin was then provided and the first
passed into the possession of the car
penter and at his death was bought
by the publican.

A Com dams Revenge.

Joseph Cawthorne' more popularity
known as Joe Cawthorne," or "Concer-
tina joe or "the Cawthorne who
plays the concertina," declares that he
knows of one joke on himself which
may be funny to others, but will never
get smile from him, says the Cincin-
natl ComelercialTrib
When he was in Cincinnati recently
he discovered that the street car con-
ductors were a most aggravating set
of individuals. They had a habit OF
starting the car just as a person en-
tered the door, and then abiding their
hand in the small of his back to keep
him from falling. One conductor with
whom the comedian most frequently
rode to and from the theater seemed to
take a peculiar delight in irritating
him. On one occasion Cawthorne had
just put on a new flannel suit, and
when he took it off he found the prints
of five dirty fingers squarely in the
center of the back.
That made him angry, and in re-
venge he took a cigar box cover, filled
it full of short pins and arranged il
under the back of his coat. With con-
siderable confidence he boarded the
car of the conductor he detested and
purposely lurched backward Up came
the mans hand, the pins landed, and
he was stuck for the ride, and for sew
eral rides. But Cawthorne smiled in
satisfaction.
Returning he thought he would make
the lesson doubly good by repeating it,
Jumping lightly on the car he again
fell backward, but the man remember
ed him and sidestepped. over the dash
board went Joseph, and into a mud
puddle. When he arose the car was
far in the distance, and the conductor
in the center of the rear platform, was
making some sign at him with his
right hand lifted until the thumb was
near the nose.

A STRANGE CASE.

Every once in a while there is re-
ported a case of a person being car
ried to an asylum without legal pro-
ceedings and against his win and kept
there for years, and sometimes with
out the consent or knowledge of rela-
tives and friends. These cases have
suggested the possibility of almost any
person being locked up in an asylum
or sana northumberland alive, as 1t were
by designing persons who wished to
get possession of his property. or for
other reasons.
A case that is just now attracting
attention in New York is that of Will
liam S. Vanderbilt Allen, a grandson
of the famous Commodore Vanderbilt.
1t is before a commission on the claim
of his relatives that he is insane. They
want him returned to the asylum.
Mr.. Allen says he is sane-that, in
fact, he has never been insane. The
story he tells is an interesting one. He
says that he was kidnapped by two
sister at her country place on the Hud-
son river. They carried him to West
port, Conn.,, and there committed him
to an insane asylum. 1t seems that
he was there for six years-in fact, I'M
til few days ago.
According to his story he was never
examined as to his sanity and never
legally committed to the asylum. AS
he was a bachelor and lived in New
York and Newport and sometimes in
London or Paris, il was supposed by his
acquaintance that he had deserted his
usual haunts for a little while, and
that in the course of time he would
reappear and explain his absence. AS
a matter of fact, he was soon for
| gotten. In these days of strenuous
life a man or woman is not remem-
bered long after death or removal to
other scenes of activity.
Mr.. Aliens temperance among his
friends with the story that, although
a sane man, he had been shut UP in
an asylum created something OF a sem
sation. 1t is probable. of course, that
he was Insane, and the probability is
that he is insane now. To all appear
ances, however, he is as sane as any
body. No doubt all the facts of the
case will be brought out In the hear
ing before the commission.
The point in which the public is
chiefly interested, however, is that he
was carried to an asylum and kept
there for six years without the knowl-
| edge of his friends. 1t suggests the
danger Of permitting people to be shut
up in asylums without due process OF
| law.
