The Russian Babe.

The imperial babe of Russia was born amid stirring times, heir appar- ent to the splendors and miseries of a great domain and perhaps heir rpur ent also to q bomb which some nihilist may have been born to construct. The bomb, the knife and the pistol are all contingent heritages of one des- tined to occupy the seat of the czars.
 It may be that at the time of the succession of the heir apparent the forces now at work and which have been at work will have wrought such changes in the government that the cZar's rule may be o benaflcent one. It cannot be so now, however much he may desire it to be. It is not the czar at whom the assassin aims, but the system. The purpose of assassi- nation is to show the futility of the czar's existence and the uselessness of his succession.
 It Is needless to say that terrorism can never effect a change in the sys- tenn. It may be said on the contra ry that it obstructs the influences which tend to make Russia less Hyper borean and bring her more closely within the circle of the civilized world. It may be prayed not alone for the safety of the destined ruler, not alone for the betterment of the people of Russia, but for the whole world that when the babe ascends to the throne there will be no assassination, because all that the terrorists are seeking to gain will have come to them and to all the subjects of the czar.

Esopus and the Pilgrims.

If Judge Parker were more of "rnixer" and not a grave and re thing | jurist he would be g. better judge of human nature, II is just as well, rel haps, that he is not, for otht.wlse he would have cause to tremble az the personnel of one class of the l'iSr.nis who in the days since his nomination have climbed the hill at Rosernont 10 be his invited and uninvitsd guests. To one who has kept tab on "otldly matters vile the judge has been asleep in court, the list appears most formid- able. The king is dead; long live the king" shout the expectant Bryanites, with their eyes turned toward EsOpus, and the outcasts of all parties, joined by those who never belonged to any, unite in praise of the chosen Moses. Democratic newspapers regard as ominous the absence of the better element" of the democratic party from the never-ending procession, and their republican opponents jeer at and encourage their alarm It must be remembered, however, that this is the vacation season, and with the returning tide of pleasure seekers will come undoubtedly the good men of the party to burn incense at the shrine. They could not come early to avoid the crush, but they will wait till the crush is over and the fragrance of their offerings will be no less grate- full to the nostrils of the candidate.
 Awaiting their arrival he can scan the names of those who daily bow be- fore him, and if his mentor tells the truth 1t will be a sorry tale he will un- fold. Every disappointed office seeker as well as all who have sought in vain to become a servant of Uncle Sam, everyone who has had a job and lost it, and everyone who with nothing to expect of this administration looks longingly to the man who may by some chance of fortune be at the head of the next. and every crank with a scheme" who has the price of a ticket is among the motley crew who have jostled against the respectable element of the democratic party as they have climb ed the hill together.
 It must be a great object lesson to Judge Parker and a novel If not pleas ant insight into human nature in gen eral and that of politicians in partic- ular. It can hardly fail to be disap- pointing and depressing as well as in- structive, but, then, what can he ex- pect if he persists in his refusal to come down from the mountain and get on a level with the masses? How can he hope to run a successful campaign from Esopus? A campaign managed from a place with a name like that is handicapped from the start. Esopus, think of it! What does it mean and how do you pronounce it?

VARDAMAN'S DEFENSE.

If the facts in the Vardaman case have been correctly stated by Post master General Payne and no satis- factory denial has been made--the people of Mississippi cannot do better than to consider the incident closed so far as the pOstoffice department is concerned. The English speaking peo- pie have a very ugly name for the man that wantonly insults woman, espe- cIally in public prints, whether that woman happens to have been the mo- ther of a president or not.

1anla Scribendi,

Golfers Weekly states that it has re- ceived over twelve thousand short sto- ries in competition for the most liberal prizes ever offered for that form of lit erature. The awards are to be as fol- lows: For the best story, 5000; for the second best, s2,OCO; for the third best. tLGO9 for all that do not win prizes, but are deemed worthy of &C., ceptance, cents a word.
 These Inducements have naturally aroused a great striving not only among story writers of skill and rep ute. but among those who imagine or hope they have gifts in that direction. The time for sending in manuscripts expired June 1st, and it was hoped that a decision might be made early in Au- gust, but Golfers now announces that the labor of examining the offerings aud passing on their merits will extend at least to the 1st of October This is Tsot surprising, in view of the magn- tUde of the task, whihc is indicated by the following statements: The tWelve thousand stories consist of ntsOBt Eeventy-two million words, or as tU4ch as is contained in one thousand towels of average length. At the low eFt price for typewriting, the cost of tEpeWritinR these stories alone was sEsuty eight thousand eight hundred dollars, If the postage on every story averaged ten cents each way-which ls an extremely low estimate-Uncle Sam derived a revenue of twenty-four hundred dollars from the contest"
 It is a matter Of course that the great majority of contestants will get their manuscripts back. Golfers, be- ing published weekly, cannot very well use more than one hundred stories in d year, nor is it reasonable to sup pose that it will care to accumulate more than a five years supply out of the present offerings. That would mean the purchase of 500 stories, from which it is clear that II 800 of the con- ts&tantE are doomed to disappointment. Some of their wares will be marketed elsewhere; others will never be sold aaYWhere.
 The judges are to be guided solely by tSse merits of the stories, it being stated tRaas they will not know the names of thE authors until after the awards are EEaAsse. Thus the element of surprise d the results is one of the novel fea,- lures of the contest. The specific standards of merit to be adopted by ths judges are unknown, but presum- ably they will not differ essentially from the tests which all magazine ed 1s9Ss apply to stories submitted for their acceptance. Harper's Weekly re- CeUtiy printed the following opinion OH sAiz subject:
 ''The author who would succeed in producing available matter in this Sustn Os literary art should take care thaS hiB story is:
