Our COLONIAL POLICY IN DANGER,

There IS a great deal OF speculation
as 10 whether the appointment Of
Judge Holmes 10 a position on the
bench OF the United States Supreme
Court will have any effect upon our In
sular policy and whether, If the income
tax question were 10 come 10 the front
again. there would be & reversal OF the
courts position on that question
OF course what Is said on these sub
jects is without any substantial foun-
datiOn. All that IS known is that Judge
Holmes is a man OF independent
thought and is not likely 70 be in
7uenced in his decisions by his en-
vironments, by the wishes OF a poliCi-
cal party or the interests Of a particu-
lar class Of citizens. The fact that the
piut0crats, the multi-milIonaires. are
against an income tax would not have
any weigh; with him, AZ least that is
the impression that is gained BY tbs
record he has made.
There is a bare possibility OF couroe
that the President had Information as
TO his views on the administration
insular policy. That Re could obtain
without consulting with him. No doubt
Re has expressed himself freely in
conversations with MS friends on that
subject Indeed. it Is more than prob
able that when the whole country was
discussing the insular decisions OF ths
Supreme Court year or so ago he
Joined in the comment Therefore it Is
not unreasonable 70 suppose that the
President knew what hts views were
in regard 10 the administrations course
in dealing with the nations island pos
sessions. StiH. there is room for doubt
on that point The President may have
looked at nothing but his record as
lawyer and judge and his character as
man and citizen. He found those OF
course to be all that could be desired.
It is worthy Of notice that the COM
nlents on the appointment in both the
Democratic and Republican papers is
Of the most favorable kind. No appoint
ment to the bench Of the Supreme
Court in recent years has been receiv-
ed with greater favor. That must be
gratifying 10 the President as we'll as
to the appointee

No woman is said so to influence
national politics as does Countess
Marie Won Bulow, wife of the German
chancellor. She has made a study of
German political affairs and her power
with her husband and his friends is
well-nigh unlimited.
Grand Duke Adolf of Luxembourg,
the oldest lay sovereign of Europe, has
just celebrated his golden wedding
with his second wife. He became Duke
of Nassau sixty-two years ago, was

death Of King William III.
An instance of King Edwards
memory for faces is going the rounds
of the English press. AT the time of
the operation upon the King a nurse
who had been present to assist left
the room on his recovering conscious
ness, but not before the King had
caught sight of her face. Directly aft
erwards he asked one of the physicians
who she was. for he had seen her
somewhere. The doctor admitted that
this was so, for, but a short while
before. the King had presented the
same nurse with a medal for her work
in South Africa. The King asked that
she be brought in. and shook hands
with her. saying: 81 have proved for
myself how we'll you deserved that
medal"
John D. Rockefeller dislikes auto
mobiles, and, with a view of preventing
them from tresnassing on his vast do
main, called lockwood. at Pocantico
Hills, he has erected signs on his prop
erty ordering automobile owners to
keep off his land. The signs bear these
words: Automobiles are not allowed
on these grounds" Mr.. Rockefeller has
fifty miles of private driveways on his
estate, many of which cover serpen-
tine trails and run along deep embank-
ments. Several times the millionaire s
horses were frightened by the ma
chimes, and this made him decide to
shut out automobile owners from his
lands. Watchmen are employed to en-

The hypnotic eye is a good thing for
ladies TO acquire. 1t may stand them
in good stead at almost any
time. The other day Mrs. L.
w. schwabb of Chicago found a
big, black burglar in her house. She
had her hypnotic eye in working or
der, and as soon as she discovered the
black man she transixed him with
her powerful glance. The negro trem-
bled and backed against the wall.
Turn your pockets wrong-side out, ="
commanded Mrs. Schwabb. The bur
glar did as he was told producing
among other things a loaded revolver"
Put that on the table," said the wo-
man with the hypnotic eye. and the
man obeyed. Now. you go to the
kitchen and stay there until / see II
you have stolen anything else" was
the next order. and the burglar meek
~ trudged into the kitchen and sat
down. But when the wonderful eye
was withdrawn from him and set
searching among the valuables the
spell was broken and the negro jump
ed through the window and escaped.
SIN, the hypnotic eye was vindieated.

York. and edited, and in fact largely.
If not wholly, written by Alfred Hen
~ Lewis. who at one time was a
close friend of Mr.. Bryan-and 1t may
be, is a friend of Mr.. Bryan yet-the
charge is resurrected and details Civ
en-. In fact. Mr.. Bryan is put in the
position as giving his reasons for not
voting for Mr. Crisp. In the course
OF his article in the OnIooker Mr.
Lewis says: From beginning to end.
on the last as on every ballot, Mr..
Bryan cast his vote for Mr. Springer
! While Mr.. Springer. through a score
Of ballots which preceded the end was
himself Withdrawn as a candidate and
in the caucus voting for Mr. Crisp, Mr..
Bryan sat wasting his suffrage-iring
his lonely, selfish arrow in the air!-
on Mr.. Springer.
Later | myself asked him TO give
me his reasons for so strange a
course. Mr.. Bryan was younger and
not so skilled of craft as now. With
an air ineffably cunning he reminded
me that those four gentlemen, other
than Mr.. Springer, namely, Messrs.
Mills. Crisp, Hatch and McMillin, were
all of them ex-Confederate soldiers:
and he closed with the unctious as
surance that he was of no mind to go
back to his district. where abode many
ex-soldiers of the Union. with the rec
ord of having voted for a one-time
rebel. Every other Northern Demo-
crat was taking that chance-if chance
it was-that day. But Mr.. Bryan, too
selfish, too crafty, too much the lover
of himself and too little the lover of
his country, to face this invented risk
of supporting a Confedsracy a third
of a century after its death, for his
own mean safety threw away his
| vote and his voice in a game where
| fairly-a throne was the stakes and an
| empire being fought for"
| OF course it is not a matter of
much consequence now what Mr..
Bryan's reasons for voting against Mr..
! Crisp were, because it is not probable
that he viii again be the can
didate of the Democratic party for
President. but we feel safe in saying
| that Mr.. Cleveland would never have
voted against Mr.. Crisp for any such
reason, If the opportunity 10 do so had
been presented TO him. And yet Mr..
/ Bryan is constantly criticising Mr..
! Cleveland. saying that he is a selfish
/ politician. who thinks of nothing but
| himself, and that he is not a Demo-
crat.
If Mr. Lewis has done Mr.. Bryan an
| injustice the latter ought to make the
/ fact known. We are sure that there
| is no desire in the South to do him an
injustice. The South has supported
! him Loyalty in two campaigns and
would be glad TO have the statement
| in the Onlooker contradicted. The
refusal to support Mr.. Crisp for the
| reason alleged in that magazine in
dictates a degree of selishness greater
| than any that is to be found in the
| political career of Mr.. Cleveland.

THE CROWN PRINCE AND MISS
DEACON.

1t was said the other day in the dis
patches that the Emperor William of
Germany was not averse to the Grown
Prince marrying an American girl, and
that the Pope favored such an alliance
in order to get some new and healthy
blood into the royal blood of Europe.
1t turns out that that was all news
paper talk. The Crown Prince is re-
ported to be so very much in love with
Miss Gladys Deacon of Boston as TO
want TO give up his right to the throne
II not permitted to take her as the
wife of the future Emperor. The En-
peror William would never consent to
a marriage between the heir TO the
German throne and comparatively
unknown American girl, no matter
how beautiful she was.
Miss Deacon belongs to a good fam
lily, a family with a skeleton in its
closet, however. and as a friend and
has had the opportunity to meeting
the most notable people of Europe, but
that does not mean that there is a
chance for her to sit upon one of the
greatest thrones of Europe
1t is probable that she would make
the Crown Prince a better helpmeet
than nine-tenths of the princesses from
among whom he will have to make a
choice of a wife, but that fact will
not count for a great deal when the
time comes for him to get married
In that matter he will have TO con-
slider what is best for the best inter-
ests of his empire. not what is likely
to contribute most TO his happiness.
The paths of kings and princes are not
strewn with roses all the way.

differ as to what effect spring has on old women.
 But whether young or old, rich or poor, every person living in Birming- ham is interested in the weather. In spring and summer the climate is very dry and the dust omnipresent. The question as to how to get rid of 1t and thus make life endurable during the heated term will soon be a burning one. There is not water enough to be had which will lay the dust and keep 1t laid, and the only alternative is oil.
 An experiment. was made on Fifth avenue last summer, and, considering the amount of oil consumed, it was quite successful in giving a knockout drop to the dust fiend. It Is to bring this matter to the attention of those interested that this idyl of spring Is written, in the hope that it may be the means of causing oil to be poured, not on the troubled waters, but on the troubled streets.

Laetare Sunday.

Today Is the fourth Sunday In Lent called Laetare Sunday. The Introit of the mass begins with the word laetare (re- joice) from which the Sunday derives it's name. This day is also known as mid Lent There is a slight relaxation from the severity of the pentitential obliga- tion. In the churches flowers are permit ted on the altar. In some countries the priest is vested in stole, chasuble and maniple of rose color, but in this diocese, which follows the New Orleans ordo, vio- let is prescribed.
 Rejoice O Jerusalem, and come to- gether, all you that love her. Rejoice with Joy, you that have been in sorrow, that you may exult and be filled from the breasts of your consolation Qsaias l xvi 10).
 q rejoiced at the things that were said to me. We shall go into the house of the Lord CPS. cxxi.) By the Introit and epistle (Galations iv. p. S1) the church reminds us of the joys of heaven, to encourage us to persevering zeal in pen ance and fasting, and to patience under persecution. crosses, and sorrows. Our joy in heaven will be greater the more we shall have suffered in this life and the more we shall have brought the body under .subjection to the soul.'
