THE SUPREME COURT.

It's decisions have always been in harmony with and sustaining the pro- position that this republic is a nation acting directly upon all it's citizens, with the attributes and authority of 8 nation, and not a mere league or con federacy of states. The importance of this cannot be oyerestimated, and will be appreciated by all who compare the weakness of the old confederaey with the strength and vigor of the republic under the present constitution.
 In the light of our marvellous devel- opment and the wondrous growth of this republic to the first place in the family of nations, one may well pause to consider what would have been our history if the decisions of the supreme court had been adverse to this rule of nationality. Suppose that the court had held that, because the constitution did not in terms grant the power to-. charter corporations, congress could not charter q national bank, where would have been our great financial system? Suppose it had ruled that a state might impose a license on every importer from foreign nations; that it had supreme authority over all the navigable waters within it's limits; that its courts could take from the custody of United States officials any person arrested for an alleged violation of fed eral law, and that there was no power in the supreme court to review the judgments of state courts adverse to rights claimed under the federal con- stitution (and the questions presented in these cases were, under the strict language of the constitution debata- ble) where would have been the vigor and strength which exist in our nation al government and which have been among the strongest supports of na- tional progress? Reflections such as these will give some idea of how much the supreme court has by it's decisions affected the life of the republic.-.Tus- tice Brewer In Scribrar's Monthly.

Pats Diplomacy.

Tn one of the large manufacturing esta ablishments in this city an Irish man was employed to watch one Of the entrances.
 One day the superintendent saw the Irishman was neglecting his duty, and told him to go to the office and get his money, as his services were no longer needed.
 The superintendent went away on business that day, and was gone about week or ten days.
 On his return he happened to Le passing this same place, and was sur prised to find the Irishman he had discharged still acting as watchman
 He said: q thought discharged you couple of weeks ago"
 Sure" says the Irishman.
 "Well, why didn't you get out when you were told?'
 "Oh, know when got good boss, if you don't know when you have good man"
 Needless to say, he is still there.- Philadelphia Ledger.

MADE STUDY OF HUMPBAcKs.
Liverpool Bachelor Gathered Infor- mation Regarding Them from Various Countries.

It was >an odd fad enjoyed by a wealthy bachelor who died recently in Liverpool. His heir, on opening his desk, was surprised to find in it a manuscript volume of 2,000 pages, which was entirely devoted to a study of humpba cks. Further investigation showed that for several years this man, who was himself stalwart, tall and athletic, had closely studied this curious subject and had visited various countries for that purpose.
 According. to his manuscript there are more humpbacks in Spain than anywhere else, the number in one small district at the foot of the Sierra Morena amounting to one in every 13 inhabitants. There are also many in the Loire region, in France. . From the statistics of all the coun- tries of the globe it appears that there is one humpback in every 1000 persons, which is equivalent to say- ing that there are 1,o000oo hump backs in the entire world. The au- thor of this manuscript says that the average height of each hump is about eight inches.

:. X-RAYS FOR CANCER.
Great Promise of Permanent Cure Held Out in the Finsen
 DiacOvcry.

Cancer proper has been generally regarded as hopeless. Having, how ever, used the Finsen ray with good results in case of cancer of the skin, decided in 1900 to prove it's results upon the deeper-seated cancer of the breast, writes George c. Hopkins in McClure's. Here, however, entered difficulty. The Finsen ray has slight penetrative power. The use of the Roentgen, or X-ray, in connection with the Finsen ray suggested itself to me. The Roentgen ray has extraor- dinary germicidal qualities, but no curative properties. Therefore, to de- stroy the germs used the X-ray, which broke down the cancerous tis- sue and killed the bacteria. Then I used the Finsen tube to heal the open sore which resulted. Under the double radial attack the area of ulceration quickly shrank, and, after several months of treatment, disappeared. That was two years ago; there has been no return of the growth since.
 Should the apparent cures of cancer prove permanent, we must regard Fin sens discovery as the greatest miti- gant of human sufferings since the first use of anaesthetics. And, in any case, the future of the new science is glorious with hope.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1903-03-04

"The great Grosvenor of Ohio the mouthpiece of the Mckinley admins trations, the member of the committee on rules in the house, through whose hands go all the legislation, passed by that body, and who has been the re- publican oracle, the statistician and political prophet and seer and, as Champ Clark calls him. the stud bug of arithmetic,' has come to grief" says a Washington correspondent. ssrhe re- publican idol is shattered, and it's earth star fled. The immaculate and white souled Grosvenor has fallen from his altitudinous perch and he popped like a painted bladder. He has been caught pulling trust magnates' legs in the most approved and latest fashion. Grosve- nor compiled a book called The Book of the Presidents and he entered into an arrangement with book agent to sell them and in doing so Grosvenor wrote letters of introduction for his man Friday to all the big trust folk lmportuning them to buy his book and telling them to make out checks paya- ble only to his order. Of course he got returns. He has been for years serv- ing the trusts and why should not they reciprocate? A New York newspaper exposed the whole game and published fac simile letter from Grosvenor to one of the big trust magnates of the country. also fac simile checks, one from J. Pierpont Morgan for s1 900 and one from Secretary of the Treas ury Shaw for $10O. The book really was worth about $1.5O, but these cheeks were in the nature of present to the statesman from Ohio in recogni- tion of his invaluable services to the party of trusts and combinations, one from the biggest duck in the trust pud- dle and one from the man who loans money to the trusts banks without in- terest, mus defying the law of the land"

FISHTOWN DIALECT.
Portion of Philadelphia Where the People Have an Amusing
 PecuIiarity.

A United States senator from an eastern state, according to the Wash ington Post, tells an amusing story about the residents of the northeast ern section of Philadelphia, known as Fishtown. Many denizens of this famous old location have dialect strictly their own, and intensely orig inal. For instance, many of them in- var1ably sound the letter W" where the letter "W'' should be respected, and vice versa. Once upon time a public man, who had been reared there, was presiding at gathering of Fishtown citizens, when a party of wags, who were present and knew the presiding officers peculiarity of dialect, concocted written sentence and sent it up to the desk to be read as notice. It was as follows:
 MT. Vinton Vaux, clad in varie- gated velvet vest, of which he was very vain, after voting, took vine gar laden vessel to the Vine street dock for verification."
 Amid shrieks of laughter the inno- cent presiding officer rendered it in this wise:
 MT. Winton Waux, clad in a warie- gated west, of which he was werry vain, after voting took a vinegar laden vessel to the Wine street dock for werificatio

THE AMERICAN LANGUAGE.
Distinctive from the Kings English
 in Many Respects as We Use. It.

"It used to be considered witti- cism to ask n man whether he spoke United States" said an English uni- versity man at the Lawyers club the other day, reports New York ex- change, but there is in fact an American language, distinctive from the kings English, not only in id toms and in the use of particular words, but in the <. clipping of words to save time and breath. On, this side of the Atlantic one scarcely ever hears Il have and you are You hurrying Americans say I've and you're You shorten up can not into can't and your purest speakers use don't and won't and it is almost universal habit among Americans to clip the g off words ending in ing Even your profes- sors of English fail to sound the e in righteous and courteous and shorten knowledge into knoledge.' I might recite scores of words that are practically shortened by a syllable in usage, and as usage makes language, you Americans are gradually construct ing speech that is quite distinct from that form of English which Oxford and Cambridge are preserving with such care"

street station Sergt. McCa rthy was merhorn, who looked doubtful when he got the order, but he moved quickly, just the same, because the sergeant said the case was urgent. He appeared again quite soon and with frown assured Mccarthy that ''it was all a fake."
 Once more the telephone bell broke the stiffness at headquarters, and once again the officer in charge sent word to Harlem. This time Police man Horn was sent Horn and Schemmerhorn linked their efforts, and now insisted on getting at the source of the excitement. They finally found Mrs. Fleming, demand ing in no mild, uncertain tones to know just what she meant.
 ''It's all right now," she said.
 Pressing for further light, the two policemen were informed by Mrs. Fleming that her husband had come home slightly under the weather" {" and that to frighten him so that he would promise her to sign the pledge she had pretended that she was go- ing to have him arrested.
 "He's promised now" she said, "and it's all right

A LITTLE TOO MUCH.
MT. Secondman Now Relieves That Warmed-Up Love Is Exnsperat-
 ing, to Say the Least.

"Warmed-up love-" remarked MT. secondman, lis all right in a, good many respects, but it has it's disad- vantages. For instance, my wife is good, loyal woman, but things occur frequently in our private affairs that we'll might wound the sensitive nature of trusting, affectionate man.
 "Now, of course, am glad that my wife thought great deal of her first husband-in fact, I should judge from what she says that he was wonder full, remarkable man-but it hurts my pride to have her keep his pho- tograph and her own side by side in our album. I didn't much care to have her celebrate her crystal wedding last

"Liberty" Losing Popularlty.

The statue of Liberty which "e4.- iightens the world" from small is- land in the upper New York bay, is not so popular as she was in the days of her youth. A dozen years ago ss,- GOO visitors made use of the small steam ferryboat that plies between the Battery and her resting place, while the past year saw but 10000. The men in charge of the statue and the boat-a orporation-have become weary of their task and have requested the war department to take it over. Secretary Root has taken the matter into consideration. The gov- ernment will doubtless take care here after of this lady from France, while the excursion line will be run by some private Washington Star.
