Where corn alone was fed, 93c was

to the corn rations reduced the price
of corn 21c and 221zc per bushel each,

The yulwar Voice.

What constitutes the vulgar voice.
In an article in the London Spectator
a writer concludes that this evidence OF
vulgarity, Springs, like almost all vui'

two causes--an undue love OF conspicu'
business and an undue fear OF the
same" The person whose chief aim
Ia to keep himself or herself in the eye
of the world rarely makes remark
without desiring that it shall reach the
ears of others 16esides the one directly
addressed, and here the peculiarly false
sound Of the voice is attributed to the
absence of singleness of motive On
the other hand, the wavering tone ana
affected accent of the timid vulgar are
ascribed to another form Of insincerity
namely, the wish to initiate others
with whom one happens to be wheu
they are of supposedly higher social
standing. The attempt IL sure to fall

Famous Gunnaker who Preferred 10
Re the First BsrghsP.
A German who for a long time held
q confidential position in the late Herr
Friedrich Alfred Krupp's works at Es'
sen and who is now in New York re-
Gently gave to reporter of the New
York Herald the following details
about the famous gunmaker:
Herr Krupp, owing to congen1tal
weakness of the heart, was forced to
leave the German army soon after he
entered the barracks at Carlsruhe.
When his father asked Kaiser Wilhpl.A
l. for his sons discharge from military
service, the emperor replied in acqui-
escence, saying, II can get many dra-
COON officers, but only one Krupp."
He was a man Of simple tastes and
strict daily regimen and very demo
cratic in his relations with workmen
and dOmestics In the Schloss Hugel
he often entertained royalty, and the
air of democracy which pervaded the
castle seemed to affect even the most
exalted of personages. He spent his
winters in Capri, where he had built
villa.
His Office was in the original cottage
occupied by his grandfather and ia
Their. 1t was called the "stammhaus,"
and the furniture of his predecessors
was left standing just where 1t had
stood in their time. The only new adr
ditfons were telephone and modern
desk. Here Herr Krupp could be ap-
preached without formality by every
workman.
He never would accept title, often
remarking, II would rather be Krupp'
the first burgher, than Won Krupp, the
last noble" He was feet 8 inches tn
height, had a high forehead, was sal
low complexioned, had an aquiline nose,
wore eyeglasses, was portly and did not
dress in the mode 1t was said Of his
clothes that they were made by bis
grandfather's tailor.
In politics he was not so democratic
a. in social and commercial life, being
q member of the National Liberal par
ty. He was elected to the reichstag
three times, but when last candidate
was defeated by the Catholic vote. most
of his workmen voting against him. On
the evening of his first election great
throng from Essen went to the castle
to congratulate him. While Herr Krupr
was addressing them many Of the CROWD
broke into his wine cellar and helped
themselves to rare vintages. "They
were connoisseurs," said Herr KrupI
when he surveyed the broken bottles
"Ah. well, I suppose my speech wal

Whatever justification may be
pleaded for seizure of Venezuelan
vessels by British warships-clearly
an act of war-without a declara-

tile intent, certainly no defense can
be set up for the sinking of the

old time filibuster and piracy days,
in violation of international equity
and the rules of civilized warfare.
England charges the act to the

CONSIDER AND PROTECT.
othen

The river interests, as we'll as
others, should be considered and
protected; but neither the river
interest nor any other should be
allowed to retard progress of trans
portation facilities for developing
trade and adding to public convent
ence, of which this city and State
are in need. 1t is such obstructive
pleas that have kept us to the tail
end of the procession, and the river
interests have generally led the
opposition. Of course, if the
electric railway can be given a
right of way into the city without
inconveniencing the river interests,
it should be SO arranged; if not,
the river interests, like other folks,
ought to be compelled to submit for
the general welfare. Every change
in methods and routes interferes
with the comfort and business of
somebody. While the rights of all
should be duly considered. too
much regard hes been given indi-
vidual and special interests in this
State to the detriment of the de-
velopment of industries and trade,
the progress and benefit of the
general public. The greatest good
to the greatest number is the pro-
per policy, and this necessarily
requires sacrifice by the lesser
number.

REVERSED AS EXPECTED.

The Court of Appeals has re-
versed the judgments of the second
trials of Powers and Howard, con-
victed of completely in the Goebel
murder. Whatever may be ones
opinion of the guilt or innocence of
the accused, these reversals are no
surprise. Such setting aside of
the verdicts was expected and pre-
dicted when Judge Cantrill, who
had presided at the first trials, in
sisted on presiding at the second
trials despite the motions and pro-
tests of tbs defense-the chief
ground of reversal in the first trials
being Judge Cantrill's arbitrary
rulings and conduct. To this was
added his subsequent public utter
ances regarding the cases. Under
such circumstance most judges
would have declined to preside at
the second trials, especially if OBJ
jected to by attorneys in the case.
