The fling is at building war-ships b.
private contract instead of in the Gov
ernment navy-yards. Of course, the
contractors are all assumed to be roll
ing in wealth, but that does not signify;
what the malcontsnt particularly object
to is the practice of giving the contrac
tors special allowances to make up
alleged losses when a contract proves
less profta BILE than anticipated. To the
man who did not get the job this does
not seem to accord with the idea of
accepting the lowest bid. By way of
Illustration, one remonstrant tells the
story of the Indian who went hunting
with the white man. ssThe spoile of
the hunt says he "were a turkey and
a crow. The white man suggested as
fair terms of division, that the Indian
take the crow and himself the turkey;
but when the Indian objected to that
the white man amiably consented to
take the turkey and give the Indian
the crow. The contractors seem to get
the best of whatever is in sight.

Washington, April 25th.--"Youth is
no longer an objectionable offence"
remarked Democratic Congressman
in discussing the candidacy of Joseph
w. Bailey for the Presidential nomina-
tion. "l1owever serious sin it may
appear at first sight, everybody will
admit that it is one which is pretty sure
to be oatgrown."
Young Mr.. Bailey" as the Texas
Senator is sometimes called in memory
of the day when he was the "baby of
the House" is thirty-nine years old, and
has been in Congress nearly eleven
years: so he is not exactly boy. Of
course, compared with German and
Hill, the leading Presidency-seekers of
his party, he is youngster, the one
being twenty and the other twenty-four
years his senior
Since his election to the Senate
Bailey has conducted himself with
marked dignity. He has got into a
congenia1 atmosphere. His ability has
ben recognized, aad he has assumed,
By virtue Of his capacity, the leader
ship of the minority. James K. Jones,
who never did meet the requirements
of the place, has been quietly shelved.
Bail ~ is not verJ broad man, and
will need to travel and see the world;
but he is vast improvement on his
predecessor, and may give German a
hard tussle for supremacy when the
latter comes back

Tillman and McLaufin are not on
speaking terms. They are not, indeed,
on terms of any sort. Each ingores
utterly the existence of the other. IF
they chance to meet in the lobby or
the Senate chamber, they gaze into
space and go by. This is not the re-
suit of their pugilistic encounter on the
floor of the Senate; for nearly year
they have not exchanged the ordinary
civilities personal relations having cea-
sed after their joint debate last summer
in South Carolina Their charges and
countercharges became so bitter then
that they were on the verge of violence
many times.
Other Senators have not allowed the
Tillman-McLaurin affair to make any
difference III their treatment of either
participant. Politically, and in other
ways, there is no doubt that Tillman
has suffered as the result of that occur
renee. But he has suffered more from
the misguided zeal of silly friends, par
ticularly the nephew who took it upon
himself to withdraw the invitation to
the President to present a sword to
Major Jenkins. Had it not been for
this incident, Senator Tillman would
have stood, in the minds of many cri-
tics, as martyr to President Roose-
velt's discrimination in White House
hospitality.
Underneath all the surface of parti-
san controversy, his colleagues in the
Senate are rather fond of Tillman,
though they sometimes wish he had
more common sense mixed with his
candor.

The most unpleasant part of the Miss Stone episode will be when she takes the lecture platform to talk about her Kidnapping, captivity and release at so many plunks talk.
 MT Roosevelt scratched Senator Tillman's name from the list of guests to the Prince Henry dinner for doing precisely what he would have done under the same circum- stances, says a Washington critic.
 The Inter-trust company is the newest. It's nominal object is to control q chain of banks throughout the country, and. of course, those banks will control everything in their vicinity that they can get under if nancial obligation to them.
 Boston wants to entertain Schley on Evacuation Day. March IT,. and about every city in the country wants to entertain him at any time that may suit his convenience. Still, MT Roosevelt pretends to believe that his unjust decision has settled the case.
 It is difficult to reconcile the state ments of some men with their ac. tions. Secretary Long says he is S5OlIiS lO slee1N9 Iue CdDlIlOL DGCduSC uS is tired of public life, yet he is after one of the prospective vacancies on the bench of the supreme court. The explanation may be found in the fact that the latter job carries q life sal ary.
 Senator Beveridge talks as though he were inclined to join the Babcock tariff reformers. He calls the oppo- sition to changes i'll the tariff laws ''the hysteria of precedent" and says that mo system Of taxation is sa- cred" If he isn't careful the high tariff worshippers will read him out of the republican party. Tn denying the immutability of the tariff laws and admitting that the tariff is tax he is knocking republican doctrines pretty hard.

Notwithstanding the fact that Tres ident Roosevelt dined with Booker Washington lie does not feel called upon to appoint colored men to once merely because they are colored. They must be competent or else they cannot hold office under Roosevelt. Recently the president refused to ap- point q negro as postmaster in a Georgia office. Commenting on this, one writer says that the decision of the president is entirely justifable. It is not the purpose of any branch of the government to give employ ment to anyone, white or black, but to serve the people, not only efficient. ly, but satisfactorily The presence of a negro in a postmastership is evil dently not essential to the efficiency of the service. Therefore, if his pres ence is distasteful to those whom he is set to serve, it is right that his place hould be given to someone else: as it ought to be if the ground of dissatisfaction were other than one of race feeling.

Writing on the question of the proper amount of wages a man or woman should receive to be able to live decently, Rev Herbert s. Bige- low in q recent article says that the United States census report shows that in the state of Ohio, in the year 1900, the average wage of those em- ployed in the factories of the state was $1.40 a day. That is less than So per week. Those who think $9 per week a satisfactory wage should be compelled to keep a family of children in clothes and in school on that sum, and pay the rent that one must, if he lives near his work, or the carfare if he lives out of the city. This wage means comparative poverty Yet MT Carnegie said the other day in New York: Every so- Der and capable and willing man finds
 employment at wages which, with thrift and q good wife to manage, will enable him to go far toward lay ing up q competence for old age.' That sentence shows crass ignorance of the real conditions of life among hundreds of thousands of sober, cap- able, willing and thrifty men. whose

BE GOOD TO YouRsELr

Many so called successful men are their own worst enemies. They would never think of abusing horse or any other dumb animal as they impose upon themselves. They go without eating, are irregular at meals, and rob themselves of sleep and recreation; in fact, they violate every law of their physical and mental natures, and vet wonder why they are gray-haired, dyspeptic and broken down before middle life. They cannot understand why their ambition and greed to get on in the world should not be the measure of their strength, and so they go on forcing their brains to work when every particle of nervous ener- gy which was stored up the previous tWenty-four hours. has been exhaust ed.
 It makes all the difference in the world to you whether you cut off five. ten or fifteen years of your lie by your foolish indiscretion, abusing yourself by overworking or depriving yourself of needed rest-by not know Ing exactly how much you can stand or whether you save those precious years by obedience to the laws of health
 Many people cramp their powers and dwarf their possibilities by denying themselves the comforts which make life harmonious and agreeable.

WHY BOILERS EXPLODE.

Why do boilers burst!,' repeated 1n old engineer, of whom the question was asked. Well, boilers are like peo- pie, in that when they are ill-treated they get red-hot and explode.
 The principal cause of explosions is because of insufficient water in the boiler. The water must be kept above the tubes, so that it may boil freely. When it falls below the tubes the boiler becomes red-hot, the steel plates soften, expand and crack, and swish! up she goes, and all else in the imme- diate vicinity
 The number of boiler explosions In different parts of the country lately calls to mind the constant menace to human life and property existing lit. erally under our very feet, as it is in basements and under the sidewalks where most of the boilers are situated. The great wonder is that more do not go up in the air. incidentally carrying the building and it's contents or the sidewalk with them. saw the wreck age caused by the fatal boiler expio- sion in Pittsburg recently. The build- ing was completely demolished, and the ruins looked as though the build- ings had been blown to pieces and the ground leveled by dynamite
 Boilers also burst when they have flaws and unseen defects in the metal which will stand the strain of the pres sure of the steam, and the plates part at this particular spot. Inspections often fail to reveal these flaws. with terrible results. Cold water let into the boiler when it is hot and when there is no water or insufficient water inside often means an explosion The steam is generated so rapidly and it's force is so terrific that the plates part like pieces of paper. Tn the iron region the sulphur in the water used has eaten the bolts off boilers I have attended inside of three months, and great care as to their repair in sea- son had to be exercised. Scales will also form oR the tubes, and when thickened so that the steel becomes red hot at this point and the water cannot get to the metal because of the scale these blisters part and an ex- plosion occurs.
 Tn some of the big department buildings in Washington the boilers are fired to only about one-sixth of their tensile strength. and boilers with licensed capacity of withstanding 12O pounds of steam pressure to the square inch carry only from 90 to 100 pounds. the safety valves being set at the lat ter figure. When the safety valves work all right vent for the danger pressure is permitted, but when they don't. as is sometimes the case-well. you will learn all about it when you wake up the next minute in the other world.
 Boilers are better made now than formerly and are constructed of steel instead of iron, as long ago. The boiler steel is tested to withstand a tensile strain of 70.0O0 pounds to the square inch as against 30,00O gell- eration ago. Boiler explosions, while frequent enough now. do not compare in number as at that period There is a more perfect system of inspection and a better class of men in charge. who are required to pass an examina- tion and to receive licenses before they aer allowed to run stationary engines, as my remarks do not apply to the boilers of locomotives.'

wives need no lesson in good man agement.. The church which closes it's eyes to these palpable facts, while it lauds the charities of the rich man who breaches that it is the laborers paradise to work for S9 q week, may expect the patronage of the men whose vanity it fatters. but it can not expect to retain the respect of earnest and thoughtful men. If it leaves to others the cross of the new crusade, it must not complain if oth- CTS wear the crown. The church may praise men for being generous with other peoples money. For thist it will have it's reward. But this reward will not be the gratitude of the weary and heavy laden.

LETTERS or LITTLE VALUE.

It is my Judgment that the first thing | young man starting i'll life should do is to master the groundwork of his chosen calling, as taught by actual practice. No matter how highly edu- cated he may be- when he makes a beginning, away from college, he ought to bear in mind that he has as much to learn that books do not contain, and professors never teach, as was i'm parted to him at his alma mater.
 Letters of recommendation are of little value. It has grown to be the case that an individual is "sized up for what he shows himself to be and not according to some other persons written estimate. It really takes a year or two of hard knocks and rebuffs to bring a young fellow, who thinks his sheepskin is all he needs, to a point where he can properly estimate himself. When he reaches that stage he will begin to get on in the world-- F. Augustus Heinz in Success.

The color line has always been a stumbling block in the way of united work in the north among men, and now, says a writer in one of the March magazines, unless the unex- pected happens, the line issue at the Los Angeles convention will be the ''color question" and one of the most ardent opponents to the admission of colored clubs to the general federal ton is Mrs Frederick Hanger of Lit tie Rock, who, on the eve of the con vention, declares the south will never submit to a color clause in the na- tional constitution. ''The southern clubs stand solid on this matter" she wrote the other day, 'and if colored clubs are accepted in tue general fed eration, they--the southern clubs will be forced out of it." Ever since the exciting episode at Milwaukee, Mrs Hanger, together with other leading club women in the south, have worked for a compromise, called the Georgia amendment, which speci- fes that membership be left to each state federation to decide for itself. Among other pertinent things she has lately written is q series of don'ts. four of which follow: Don't forget the colored women have fourishing federation of their own" Don't forget that months were spent trying to prove the general federation was too crowded to hold the white clubs already enrolled.' Don't forget the southern women have q deep and abiding interest in the members of the colored race. and it is no new thing for them to help them"
