A Moruanatic Marrlane

A friend called to see Russell
Sage a few days ago and in the few
minutes he remained incidentally
asked the financier his opinion OF
Cecil Rhodes will.
Mr.. Sage replied that he did not
consider Rhodes idea of the unfit
cation of the English speaking peo-
pies a practical one and that if any
alliance came about between the
United States and Great Britain it
would not be for sentimental rea-
sons, but rather through CONNER
cial and financial interests.
"Then, AIR Sage" said his ques-
toner, "you think if any closer POI

Magnificent Distances.

Milton T.. Allies, assistant secre-
tary of the treasury, recently made
a trip to the Pacific coast, and while
on his journey he heard a story de-
signed to give some conception of
the magnificent distances of empire
in the far west, says the Philadel-
phia Times.
According to this narrative, an
entire family in Dakota was pros
trated with grief, the women and
children crying and the dogs howl
ing. The head of the household
was about to depart on long jour
ney. On a huge wagon hitched to
an eight mule team he had piled
tents, camp utensils and provisions.
Tenderly he embraced his wife and
children for the final goodby.
"Where was he going?" was ask
ed of the narrator.
"He was going half way across
the farm to feed the pigs" replied
the Dakota man.
Odd he ever get back to his be-
reaved family?" sneered the listen
er.
'It isn't time for him yet" re-
sponded the westerner.

Mr.. Bryan S Mistake.

We have always had profound adj
miration for Mr.. Bryan. and still have
the highest appreciation Of his ability
and his character But from our limit
ed range Of vision he is now making a
mistake in the attitude which he insists
upon maintaining toward the party and
issues which brought him into prom
inence. Mr. Bryan was the strong
champion, and leader in the notable
contest which resulted in his defeat and
III the defeat Of his party, but instead
OF yielding TO the will and wishes Of the
majority, which he could have done
without the sacrifice Of II single prin-
clple, he continues struggle, the ten
dency OF which is toa futher disruption
of his party. The end for which he
contended mainly has been attained
The party, even in his own State. has
Enthusiastically declared its opposition to
his leadership on the old ISSUES. but he
does not seem to be the least inclined
to concede anything or any question
even for the sake of the salvation of
his party. In this course lie is doing
Injury to himself, as well as his party
How much more powerful he would be
to-day in the councils of State. if no
could see and appreciate the inevitable
and bow in submission TO the will of
the majority! In the beginning Mr.
Bryan contended for IA great and nm
iversal principle Of right. Providence
and not party, came to the rescue and
settled the question Of currency forever
but he still fights. 1t looks TO rs as
though this is great mistake
counting of political wreckage and ruin.

RAIN NEEDED WASHING.

Mr.. Richard Mansfield is not cell

mind does not prevent him from
occasionally indulging in a bit of
humor no less enjoyable because

Minister WI Ting Fang snd DR..
Mary Walker had a tilt of wit at
reception in Washington last win
ter, in which the Chinaman had
rather the best of it.
1t was the initial meeting of the
two, and their spinal inhexions
were barely completed when the lit
tie doctor stepped back pace and,
drawing her rather slight anatomy
up to the uttermOst semblance Of
dignity that she could command,
with an expression, too, of utter
disapprobation upon her countn-
nance, eyed the big Chinaman most
severely for moment.
With a look of establishment at
this attitude, to which the popular
diplomat is so little accustomed. he
waited in curiosity for what was
coming, for DR.. Mary's expression
was portentous. At last she let him
have it, with look that might have
annihilated one less philosopher:
"Why do you wear petticoats, Mr..
Wu ?"
The minister, SMILING blandly, as
only Chinaman can, replied:
Because it is the custom of my
country, madam" And then, after
a slight pause, to give his words all
the effect possible, "Why do you
wear trousers, madam ?"-Lippin

the teeth were removed after death

Garland and line Mushroons.

Hamlin Garland, who is now, by
residence at least, New Yorker, is
well known among his friends for
the seriousness with which he re-
CARDS his work and the Importance
which he attaches to his position in
literature. An example of this was
given when Mr.. Garland recently
visited a friend, whose wife brought
in for Sunday night tea dishful
of fresh mushrooms, which she had
procured from a neighboring hot
house. The distinguished author
regarded them with undisguised
suspicion. =

with great concern, "that these are

Strange Diseases.

Lombardy is the one place where
pellagra is always prevalent, that
mysterious modern ailment due to
eating damaged maize, which since
1888, when it was first noticed, is
computed to have been responsible
for the death of more than $780,
600 peasants. Mandalay ringworm,
again, is known and dreaded
throughout Burma, but even the
most ignorant Burmese is aware
that it cannot be contracted outside
the ancient capital. Similarly
crock" fever is confined TO Gibral-
tar, although it is probable that the
ailment known as Maltese fever,
which can be contracted only in
Malta and there only in the spring
and autumn, is closely allied to it.
Aleppo evil, too, is unknown in any
of the other cities of Asia Minor,
