San Francisco, May 4-The grand
commAndery, Knights Templar, of Gal
ifornis has decided by unanimous vote
that hereafter no wine shall be served

Tho innovation has been introduced,
It is claimed, so that the order on this
coast might fall in line with a general
movement Of the same kind in the east
and because wine in the lod0e rooms
for all official functions is contrary to
the principles Of Masonry.
IL is said that the Grand Lodge Of

that ali banquets given under the aus.
pices OF any Masonic lodge Of the state

WHICH IS WHICH?


Mr.. Curtis Of the Chicago Record
Herald, has been asted by u reader of
his unique Washington letters to ex-
plain the distinction between a states.
man, diplomatist and politician.
IL is something more than a difference
in terms, says he In grasping the ques-
tion. A statesman may lack the quail
ifications essential to success in poll
tics and diplomacy. A successful d.
plomatist may not be a statesman, but
he is likely to be good politician.
The dictionary definition Of a diplo-
mstist Is "a man who has dexterity
or skill in managing negotiations of
any kind, +" and by the same authority
diplomacy is defined as "Artful man
agement with a view Of securing adj
vatages,. It will be readily seen
that a successful politician must be a
diplomaist and successful diplomat
list ought to be- a skillful politician.
We have had statesmen who were
not diplomatists or..were very.poor pol
iticians, continues Mr.. Curtis and we
have had diplomatists and politicians
who were not statesmen-very many
of them, but it is difficult to draw the
line. John J. Ingalls, once declared
that politician was a statesman out
of job. He meant that when a man
with the ability Of a statesman is try
ing to secure an office he usually
adopts the arts OF the politician, but
when he attains his ambition he sban-
dons them and rises above partisan
ship. But it is very difficult to find a
statesman who is not a partisan; they
have been very few. Thomas B. Reed
said that a statesman was politician
who was dead, and he meant that the
amiable disposition of American peo-
pie is more likely to award credit and
recognize ability in a man after his
death than while he is living.
Presidents Lincoln and Mckinley
may be mentioned as examples of men
who were at once politicians, diplo-
mats and statesmen, for both achieved
remarkable success in political affairs
and have been excelled by few in pc.
liticsl saRacity. Both were also mas.
tiers Of the science Of diplomacy, al
though neither had experience in the
large affairs Of the nation until they
came to the White house. The evi-
depces Of Lincoln's statesmanship ap
pear upon every page of the history OF
his administration, and while IT is toe
soon to measure the ability and fix the
rank of William Mckinley among
statesmen, his reputation will grow by
comparison.
The English language lacks terms
to describe men Of the attainments Of
Lincoln and Mckinley, says Mr. Cur
tbs in conclusion. The French. Span
isards and Germans have definitions
for different grades Of politicians, but
the English and Americans are limit
ed to that single word which is applied
to every person who participates in
political affairs from a ward worker
in our cities to the occupant Of the ex
ecutive chair of the nation.

CURES WHEN DOCTORS FAIL

Mrs. frank Chiasson, Patterson,
La, writes June s. 1901; 81 had NAL
aria fever in very bad form, was under
treatment by doctors, but as soon as
stopped taking their medicine the fe-
yer would return. l used a sample
bottle of Herbine, found 1t helped me.
Then bought two bottles. which COM
pletely cured me. l feel grateful to
you for furnishingSsuch a splendid
medicine, and can honestly recon-
mend it to those suffering from NAL
aria, as it will surely cure them. +"

ro soALp rRAIN RoBRERs.


BY means Of recently patented
idea it is now proposed to fight train
robbers by the use of bath of hot
water, says the Philadelphia Record.
Tho train robbers in most cases resort
to the strategy of tagging the train
and boarding the engine, which they
take possession Of and take the train
to a convenient place for the continu-
ance of their work. The invention re-
ferred to contemplates a system Of pip
ing encircling the engine in such a
way that all avenues Of approach are
covered, and when confronted by the
wespons of gang of thieves the en-
gineer, without the use Of his hands,
and even when his hands are held over
his head in compliance with their or
der, can surround the engine with a
curtain of hot water so that the
thieves will be blinded and otherwise
disabled and forced to desist their
further efforts to secure their plumber.
This system is designed to protect
in this manner not only the entrances
to the cab of the engine, but also the
steps and other parts of the tender and
the platform Of the front car. This
apparatus may be thrown into opera
ton from either side of the engineers
cab in like manner. thus placing this
means of protection at the command
Of the fireman as well as the engineer.
The idea, which is the invention Of
George A. Copp of Chicago, calls for
a sy stem of piping connected with the
boiler below the water line and car
ried around the engine and tender and
covering all the vulnerable points.
The pipes are supplied with spoon noz-
zles at frequent intervals and are man.
ipulated by three valves convenient to
the feet oflthe engineer and fireman.
Each OF the valves controls different
part of the system in order that the
scalding water may be directed to that
part from which the advance is being
made.
Thus one lever will cause curtain
of hot water 10 fall around the rear Of
the cab, while another projects streams
around the forward part Of the engine,
and the third throws a steaming JET
over the tender to the platform of the
first car of the train, which is gener-
ally the express car and the one which
the robbers would naturally attack al
the outset of their operations. If the
engineer finds himself confronted from
all directions he can press all three
levers and immediately surround the
engine with an envelope of hot water
and steam.

SPRING AILMENTS.

There Is an aching and tired feel
ing; the liver. bowels and kidneys be-
come sluggish and inactive, the diges-
ton impaired, with little or no appe-
lite, no ambition for anything, and a
feeling that the whole body and mind
needs toning mp. The trouble is that
during winter there has been an ao-
cumulation of waste matter in the sys-
tenn. Herbine will remove it, secure
to the secretions a right exit, and by
it's tonic effect fully restore the vast
ed tissues and give strength in place
of weakness. 500 at Dubois, Kolb &
