The Field of Politics
Can Nature Cure the Mule2

The Hon. E. W. Pou, of North Caro-
lima. who. considering the fact that he
was then first-termer, made something
OF a record for himself in the last Con-
gress by antitrust speeches. believes
that the Democrats should win in the
next campaign because Dame Nature has
been kind enough TO remove the only
issue which divided the party in the last
two national contests.
OF course. Mr.. Pou refers to the silver
question as the one solved by nature.
and Is evidently one OF those who con-
tends that the Democratic party was
right in its demand for more money.
which demand has been met. not by the
free and unlimited coinage of silver at
the ratio OF 16 to /, but by a great in
crease in the production of gold. due
largely to wonderful discoveries in
Alaska. South Africa and elsewhere. 1t
IS true that when the human body is III
natures process of curing and healing
is often more effective than all the rem
edies ever concocted in an apothecary's
shop. and so too nature may be able to
make well the wounds in the Democratic
party. At least the worthy old Dame
ought to be as successful at it as the
political pillmakers who have been at
tempting the job for the past two or
three years
The harmony doctors have been at
work on the Democratic donkey for a
long time. but thus far their veterinary
eHorts have not been rewarded with
much success The old beast still suffers
from pain beneath her surcingle. Now
that the doctors have disagreed. it is
time that nature should decide. and the
democracy may yet be restored to
health

Blew Out His Brains.

Lord James Douglas. one Of the
brothers OF the late Marquis, committed
suicide by blowing Oh, nls brains q few
years ago, while the elder brother OF
the present marquis. Lord Drumlanrig.
at the time private secretary OF the
prime minister. Lord Rosebery. was
killed while out shooting on the very
eve of the date appointed for mis- mar
riage TO the daughter OF Gen. Sir
Arthur Ellis. OF the Kings household.
Opinions TO this very day are divided
as to whether the shooting was acci-
dental or was case Of suicide. The
late Lord Francis Douglas. an uncle.
perished in an Alpine accident. along
with three feilow-tourists and a guide
being precipitated down a tremendous
precipice in a vain attempt to ascend
the Matternhorn. The grandfather Of
the present marquis. the seventh holder
of the Queensberry peerage, was killed
bv an accidental discharge OF his gun
while out shooting

The Trouble With Bryan.
Thinkers, Not Takers, Wanted in Poll
tics Now.

The trouble with Mr.. Byan, upper
eeived by him and his followers, and
probably by most other people, is that
he Is an anachronism- There was a
time when to be ar orator meant sue
cess in political life. Men were APP
pointed TO Cabinet portfolios, elected
to governorships, even made Presi-
dents, on the strength of their speech
making. Personal magnetism counted
for everything. The man who could
talk was the man who could com
mand.
But that time has passed; and the
orator is Of use nowadays in political
work only when some particular issue
unites all the people of certain re-
gion in great wave of feeling and
enthusiasm. This was the case at the
time Of Mr. Bryan's first candidacy.
He was an anachronism, but nobody
saw that he was, because the situation
itself was anachronistic. Not for a
generation had the land been so
stirred up about one question, more
or less easy of comprehension. Mr..
Bryan's temperament Is that of the
orator. In the field against an oppo-
nent of mere political ability he
would have stood a good chance in
Henry Clay's time. Things are diff
ferent now.
a speech which is enthusiastically
received by an audience looks differ
ent next morning in cold print.
There is much the same difference
between eloquent oratory and elo-
quent writing as between a good
drama and good novel 1t is a we'll
known fact that none Of the great
speeches Of history have come down
to US just as they were delivered.
They have been polished, toned down,
built into shape. Nowadays the ora
tor must take the chances Of steno-
graphic reports which are accurate.
His speech must stand the test Of un-
magnetic type.
Hence Mr.. Bryan's influence has
melted like q sand castle before the
waves. 1t was the influence Of the
orator; and the time demands some
thing more and something different as
well.

Karl's life. She was hurried TO the City
Hospital. and restoratives were applied
with such promptness that the doctors
announced that she would survive. The

FIRED AT HIS HEART,
BUT HIT HIS SHOULDER

SAN FRANCISCO. July 1s-william
Fitzgerald attempted suicide at 124
Sixth Street by shooting himself in the
left breast. He placed a pistol over his
heart. intending TO infiict fatal wound.
but his hand was so unsteady that the
weapon was turned aside and its bullet
sent upward into the shoulder blade.
The man who occupied the room adjoin-
ing Fitzgerald was awakened by the
shot. He caused the police to be sum
moned and had Fitzgerald removed to
the Central Emergency Hospital AS
sistant Police Surgeon Murphy dressed
the wound and at noon Fitzgerald was
ready to be discharged.

Queensberry No Longer a BANKRUPT.

So much publicity has been given in
the past to the bankruptcy of the
Marquis OF Queensberry, that It Is only
Just and fair to him to place on record
the fact that it has been annulled, that
MS Indebtedness has been compromised
by a payment equivalent to so cents on
the dollar. and that he is therefore once
more in position to take his seat
among the Scotch peers at Holyrood al
each general election in order to vote
for the selection of those sixteen Scotch
peers who represent the peerage OF the
northern kingdom In the house of lords
at Westminster.
Lord Queensberry is not only well
known but also well liked in this coun-
try, where he has spent much OF his
time, particularly since his marriage,
and almost lost his life. it may be re-
membered, in an accident on the New
York Central Railroad some years ago.
when the fast train from Buffalo to New
York toppled into the Hudson, drowning
several of Its passengers. He started
life as a sailor. retiring with the rank
OF lieutenant in the royal navy, served
In the South African war as a soldier.

DUG BY CANDLE LIGHT
FOR CAPT. KIDD'S GOLD
Another Vain Search for Pirates Un-
measured Wealth.

NEW YORK. July 19.-Another search
for Captain Kidd's treasure has come
TO naught. and all there is to show for It
Is big hole In the cellar of a store
house connected with the Arbuckle
Brothers coffee mills. at Bridge and
Plymouth Streets. Brooklyn.
The hole was filled with water by the
storms last week. and W. A Jamison.
the manager Of the mills, has stopped
the treasure search. in spite Of the facz
that Henry Endum, an engineer. is posi-
tive that the Spirits" were playing no
idle joke when they transmitted TO him
the information that Captain Kidd had
deposited $50. O.O00. 900 worth OF loot in the
ground on which stands the old O'Dono-
hue Building.
Endum was an engineer in the O'Don-
ohue coffee mills up to the time they
were absorbed by Arbuckle Brothers, a
year ago. For about eight days and some
nights he dug industriously by candle
light. Once the dirt caved in and he was
slightly injured. but he did not stop
work for several hours.

took the ground that his father might

Issues in Abundance.

Representative Pou seems to take the
right view of the matter, and the Demo
Gratis should let Il go at that. 1t is not
improbable that when the next national
platform Is written the party will
seek to make itself appear consistent
by declaring that more money was
needed when they demanded free coin
age Of silver. but that that deficit has
been met by an unexpected and bountI-
ful yield Of gold. which makes further
consideration Of the money question
unnecessary. They could thus skirt a
troublesome matter and come together
upon other issues.
These, Mr.. Pou suggests. should be q
demand for tariff reduction so that ar
ticles manufactured in this country shall
be sold as cheaply in America as they
are in fOreiA countries, and a rigid in
vestigation Of the departments of the
Government at Washington. Upon these
issues he thinks the followers of both
Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Cleveland should be
willing to fight side By side. and. with
either German or Parker, ought to have
a good chance OF winning.

A Charming Wife.

Lord Queensberry has a charming
wife, the daughter Of a clergyman. whom
he married for love. and portionless.
against his fathers wishes. and has
until now shown himself to be the ole
level-headed member Of the most &C.
centric family OF the British peerage.
The late marquis. who was professed
atheist, and barred from most Of the
London theaters by reason of his prac =
tice of rising from his seat in the stalls
during the midst of a performance in
order TO argue with the actors and ac-
tresses about the sentiments TO which
they were giving expression. was the
college ehum at Oxford of Charles
Stewart Parnell, who, indeed, taught the

An Appalling Tragedy.

These are only a few of the tragedies
connected with his family. the most ap-
palling of which, however, was that
which took place in the last century ct
Edinburgh. The Lord Queensberry OF
the day was high commissioner OF Scot
land. and as such had to preside at the
ceremony Of proclaiming the law at the
Cross of Edinburgh, by which the fiscal
union between England and Scotland was
established. His entire household. re-
tainers and servants deserted the family
mansion near Holyrood Palace to wit
ness the ceremony, with the exception
OF the heir 10 the title. an idiot boy.
and the one-year child of one " the
servants.
When the inmates of the establish
ment returned at the close of the ere
mony they found to their horror that
the idiot heir OF the high commissioner
and Of the MarQuisate OF Queensberry
had managed TO escape from the room
in which he was confined. and had spit
ted. roasted in front Of the kitchen
fire. and almost completely devoured
the unhappy infant. This cannibaIis-
tic lord did not live TO succeed to his
fathers honOrs. but died a few years
after this tragedy in a madhouse.

A Sailor Prince

King Edwards promotion of his only
son 10 the rank of vice admiral consti-
tutes timely reminder Of the fact
that the Prince of Wales Is a sailor
by profession, although. being now heir
apparent. he is likely never to go to sea
again, or to take any active part IN his
former calling. The popularity of the
navy in England is infinitely superior
10 that OF the army. at any rate with tie
nation at large, and there is no doubt
trist triiieo George up till the time
ne became Prince OF Wales. de-
rived distinct advantage from being
sailor rather than a soldier
VI late an impression seems to have
become prevalent that he had trans
ferred his predilection from the service
In which he was reared to the army.
an Impression perhaps due to the fact
that he was seen much more often In
his uniform of general, or in that of
one or the regiments Of which he is
colonel. than in naval dress His pro-
motion to the rank of vice admiral VIII
doubtless serve to eounteract this feel
ing on the part of the public.
He has been only two and one-half
years a rear admiral. and is promoted
over the heads of more than twenty
other rear admirals who are his seniors
But then OF course the ordinary rules
and regulations on the subject Of pro-
motion do not apply to members OF the
royal family. and particularly not TO
a Prince of Wales.
