Kitchener Brooked No Failure.

Blackwood's Magazine: The gift OF
overcoming apparently lnsuperable
difficulties which the gidar's officers
possess in such a marked degree was
very largely due to the ~unbendfng Sc
verify with which he treated all fall
ures, whether high or low were re-
sponsible for them. A thing was or
dered; it had to be done, and conse-
quently 1t was done; no excuses pre-
vailed for an instant. So when In Of
fcer lost a Nile steamer through the
stupidity of a subordinate he was a
ruined man; when the wires failed to
connect K, with his base at a critical
moment the young officer in charge lost
all the fruits Of his long and meritor-
ious labors. If no chief ever acknowl-
edged more fully and generously good
work well done, no one also was ever
more ~unforgiving Of failure, to no mat
ter what cause the failure might be due,
Once in the hottest moment of a blaZ-
ing Soudan summer I incautiously re-
ported that D had got su~nstroke, and
therefore could not execute some or

devil does he mean by having sun
stroke; send him down to Cairo al
once" However, D being a friend OF
mine, I wired to warn him that he was

and the order was carried out, and
nothing more was heard Of the matter
while poor D lived to get himself hand

NOT SUBSIDIZED.
Newspaper Does Not Agree With the
Postmaster General.

newspaper LUIGI INoI FNSISS J. e'S
Postmaster General.
Chicago News: Postmaster General
Payne in his annual report
thai ogre has been made in the
task OF withdrawing special mailing
privileges from such publications as
are not properly entitled to the postage
rate established for second class mat
ter. That classification includes in the
meaning of the postal law only genuine
newspapers and periodical publications.
In this connection the postmaster gen.
eral makes this singular assertion:
ut seems to lave heen but little APP
preciated that a publishers mailing
privilege under the law is in effect a
subsidy"
1t would be interesting to know all
that Mr.. Payne intended to convey by
this remark If, as some persons may
think, 1T was meant to cool the ardor
Of those newspapers which make war
on special privileges as expressed in
tariff schedules n ship subsidy bills,
. we may expect to hear Of 1t again In
the arguments Of persons seeking to
| justify such privileges. In any event
| the Daily News must tax issue with
| the postmaster general on the PROPOSE
| ton which he advances. The truth is
that a publishers mailing privilege un-
| der the law Is not a subsidy, but a tax.
By authority of an act of March 3,
| 1853, were carried In the
mails without charge to the publisher,
| the postage being collected from the
subscriber by the postmaster at the
| office of delivery. To save the post
| office department the trouble and loss
| resulting from such collections the law
| was changed about twenty-five years
ago so that now the publisher avs the
postage in advance. He does not d
the price of postage to the subscrlp-
ton price of his newspaper. On the
| contrary, the subscription price in most
cases has been greatly reduced since
| the law was changed. In his annual
report for 1873 Postmaster General
Creswell, in support of his recommen-
dalton that the publisher be required
to pay the postage said:
so marked would be the improve
ment in the collections under this plan
that I believe the department could
safely consent, in case of its adoption,
to a reduction in newspaper rates. Of
40 per cent. on present prices. At the
reduced rate I am satisfied the depart
ment would realize more revenue than
now"
But it is not necessary to recall the
circumstances under which the present
law was enacted in order to show the
singular nature of Mr.. Payne's subsidy
claim. Postal regulations are matters
Of public convenience tempered by
business judgment. 1t is as unfair to
call a publishers mailing privilege a
subsidy as it would be to apply that
term to any other postal regulation
that Is of benefit to the people;

The information opened up fresh chan

OF course Esther made an effort to steer
clear of personalities. The destination of
each, however, was a subject that could
scarcely be avoided. She learned that he
was on his way to join a camping party
in M~ichigan-very near the resort where
she 'purposed spending the summer with
friends. :
But Esther touched that topic very
nightly. or course 1t would not do to be
too confidential with a mere. stranger.
Somehow the reality Of the situation
was beginning to force itself upon her.
The steamer was nearly the Michigan
shore. Perhaps it was her sudden recol-
lection of friends awaiting her arrival at
the dock that caused Esther's growina
discomfort.
One thing Esther was determined upon.
Her friends should not see her accom-
panied by this picked-up acquaintance.
They did not. But they saw something

In the excitement of greetings the fact
was not noticed at first. Then exclama-

and-but the other things must surely be-
long to him.
There were papers and cards. Esther.

ly in her walk with the others toward the
hotel.

and stood staring at the bit Of pasteboarS7.

And look-here is-yes, here is some OF
his manuscript. Girls! just think of it
it's his coat! His! My dear authors
and 1t was he who helped NEEDLESS his
heart. This must be returned at once!"
IF 1t really belongs to John Hart, we
can find him all right. A party of literary
people are camping out at Brightwood
park. Well inquire"
The overcoat found its way duly to
John Harris possession. With twas a
little. note of apology.
As has been remarked, the distances be-
Tween his camp and the resort where Es-
ther stayed was not great. It was not I'M
usual that Hart hould spend some of his
I days at the hotel as a change from the
Inconvenience Of life at Brightwood
park.
Thus 1t happened that the acquaintance
begun on the steamer.was continued.
1T proved To be an acquaintance that
never ended. AS Mrs. John Hart often
similingly remarked: s'ours is a friend
ship that crows dearer every day. I'm,
always finding something new IN him to
admire. He's as beautiful to me as a hus-

could have paid John Hart.

A Mans Influence.

William George Jordan: The only re-
sponsibility that a man cannot evade in
this life is the one he thinks of 1east-his
personal influence. Mans conscious in
%fluence, when he is posing to impress
those around him, is wofully small. But
his unconscious influence, the silent, SUBJ
tie radiation Of his personality, the eff
feet of his words and acts, the triles he
never considers-is tremendous.

about thirty, which is an auxiliary to
the Iowa Holiness Association. The
following officers were elected: Pres.
Rev. Conner, Vice p. Charley KILLER,
Sec. Mrs. Augusta Baker, Treas. j.

One of the most remarkable exhibits
OF swine ever seen on this continent
will be held at the Iowa State fair,
which will be held in Des Moines from
August q to 20. It is likely to break
the record in this state. Superintend-
ent w. M. McFadden, who is in
charge of the swine department, says
indications are he will have larger
showing of hogs than last year. At
that time, the pens were all filed to
their capacity, with over l 100 head of
hogs. A larger number will, in all
probability, be, exhibited this year.
Much will be added TO the attractive
ness of the exhibition by the erection
of the new judging pavilion for swine,
which is practically completed.
