The idea that a japanese movement

QUILL WAS EASY GAME.

Robbed in the Capital,

II was'a mean trick Hon. l., II. Redd

the two met on the corner OF East Tenn

friends started joshng each other.
During the process Mr. Redd purloined
Nebekers watch, unlocked the chain
and placed the end OF the chain I'm

Nebeker reached for his big gold
watch and the next moment there was
a howl which rent the atmosphere:
Robbed robbed on Main street I'm my

United States In perfect safety"
The commiseratlon shown by friends
was profuse. Finally Redd took the
stricken mans arm and together they
hunted UP a policeman and told their
troubles. After working Nebeker into
n frenzy Redd got behind the police
man, handed out the watch and ran

owing to the fact that communication

that II IL not In a position 20 question
the Toxic and other reports that the
japanese have carried the outer works
at Kin Chou. But from what Is known
of the disposition of Gen, Stoessels
forces, the authorities apparently are
convinced that only the old town Of
Kin Chou was taken. The heights to
which the Russians are said TO have
retired are really the key to the en-
trance Of the Kwan Tung peninsula.
They are situated eastward OF the town

That was the way John Tischner
saved his best girl, Ida Wonsky, when
fire broke out on the steamer General
Slocum, says the Albany Times Union.
In the language of the rural politi-
clan he saw his duty and done it,"
Possibly a member of the New York
Livingstones might have adopted 9TH
er measures. He might have hesitated
to kick the girls shins or to throw her
into the water or to drag her by the
drowned locks in such an exigency;
but it is to be doubted if he could
have invented a better way.
John Tischner is the kind that does
things. He believes in results.
He will probably marry Ida Wonsky.
He deserves to If he wants her. She
ought to be proud of lover that does
not hesitate to do the right thing at
the right time. And when married they
will raise up to themselves other
Tischners as adroit in time of peril as
the head of the house.
John Tischner and Ida Wonsky are
of the tenement district of New York s
East Side, members of that population
which economic writers call "the dan
gerous classes. the scum and Off
scourlngs of Europe, whose presence in
our body polite. auguers i'll to the re-
public" etc, etc.

During Commodore Charles r. Flint's
entertainment of Prince Pu-Lun at
Coney Island he learned that the royal
Mongol knew a thing or two about
American social questions.
Mr.. Flint is the head of the Atlantic
Yacht Club at Sea Gate. and Incl
dentally was asked by one of the party
to describe what the poorer people
really thought of the rich. The Com
modore did so.
"Of course" ne added in conclusion,
there is A certain class in the COM
nunity who'd like to step on the up
per classes and crush them out"
"Ah." replied the prince, now I un-
derstand that American saying. What
thing is it? All, yes, about people
walking on their uppers.'
Again the prince was "remlniscing"
about Ii Hung Changes visit, and the
pleasure the old statesman had at the
Waldorf Astoria. 1t seems one of the
state party had purchased some light
weight trousers 10 take back to Cathay
as a curlo. He put them on one even

next day sent them to laundry to be
done up" When they came home
they had shrunk and were too small
so he was troubled. He donned them
and went to Ii Hung Chang.

trousers have grown smaller In the

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Chicago Chronicle (Dem) says:
Until this war between Japan and
Russia got under way no one in ST.
Petersburg ever dreamed OF the mum,
her of different calamities that could
befall a war vessel.
The Galveston News Dem.) says:
Both Mr.. Cleveland and Judge Gray,
whose names. have been mentioned in
connection with the nomination, are
fayorably inclined toward Parker. AS
matters now stand, the favorite son
following appears to be almost all for
Parker. and. with the lead he has, his
nomination is apt to be made on the
second or third ballot"
The New York World (Dem.) says:
Practically all Democrats are agreed
that the financial question is not and
should not he an issue in the campaign.
The only way to keep IL from being an
issue is for the Democratic ConVen-
ton to accept the double verdict of the
American people, which accorded with
the historic Democratic policy, and
pledge the party to maintain the gold
standard as now established here and
In practically every commercial coun-
try in the civilized world"
The Philadelphia RECORD NDeHl'J
says: "Since his retirement from pub
lie life Mr.. Cleveland has given many
evidences OF a sense of humor never
suspected during his official career.
The latest and one of the most enter
tanning instances of this occurred the
other day when he was asked what he
would do II the nomination were offer
ed him upon a silver platter. True to
his opposition to silverism, and wit
tily evadng a categorical reply, he an
swered that he would refuse the plat
ter. An election could bring him no
additional honor. and the nomination
would impose upon him much labor and
some risk He is sincere IN saying he
wishes to remain "A private citizen.
But no man has refused a presidential
nomination, and there Is no reason
why the ex-President should refuse a
nomination that has not been offered
to him.
