PuRE DEMOCRACY NoE.

We shall soon know what pure De-
mocracy i. or pretends to be, this year,
The Democratic National Convention
at st. Louis win begin operations to-
day, All the talk is that Parker the
Sphinx will be the nominee for Presi-
dent. Some of the delegates don't know
what to think of him. For instance,
ex-senator W. 4. Harris, of Kansas,
says: I'VE are Democrats. We sup
port the party ticket. We shall do our
best for Parker, but we do not know
very well where he stands. Dignity is
all right in a Judge, but there is such a
thing as carrying it too far when an
avowed candidate for the presidency
does not find any way of letting the
country know where he is on the great
and pressing issues of the day. This
does not make him at the start an at
tractiye candidate in our section, al
though he may prove a stronger card
as We come to know more about him. y
Doubtless if he is nominated Judge
Parker win talk a little, and that little
may be too much. 49,.
The platform will not be the one on
which the Democrats have so mulishly
stood lately. but nobody knows yet
what it viii be. Whatever it is it will
be fearfully and wonderfully made, and
will doubtless point with pride to the
glorious achievements of the Democrat
ic party. The talk is that whatever it
is Bryan will not bolt, but will meekly
make one of the procession which will
march gloomily on to defeat.

anee is particularly wonderful. But
this is nothing more than an intelligent
application Of native training to mill
tary ends. The old generals explana-
ton is as follows: There are in Japan
certain classes of runners whose per
formanees are wholly extraordinary.
Among these are the men who draw the
little wagons 6inrikishas). They can
actually run faster and hold out longer
than the horses. Like these are the
men who carry sedan chairs, and also
those men who accompany horse
back riders and go faster than the
horses. When / rode in Japan always
had one Of these runners with me. 1
fancy that the Japanese, by picking
out from the regiments happening to be
at disposal all such men, have particu-
larly used them for the support of their
cavalry. OF course the runner cannot
do so much when he is Obliged to carry
his own baggage, but in any case his
ability to go quickly, and above all
things to hold out, is wholly unparal-
leled."
And the beauty of it is that these
Japanese runners display their peculiar
ability in running toward and not away
from the enemy. They are certainly
uncommon soldiers. =

FaDING,

Anthropolog Otis T. Mason of the
Smithsonian Institution at Washington
solemnly announces that blondes are a
disappearing human type. Blonde wo-
men. are becoming scarcer every year,
and to-day there are not nearly so
many fair-haired and blue-eyed beau
ties as there were fifty years ago. In
each successive generation there are
fewer of them than in the last. AL
ready such a thing as a real blonde,
purely such, is so rarely seen in this
country as to excite remark, and golden
tresses are so infrequent that veritable
ones are usually suspected to be dyed.
In short, it has become evident that
before long this type of feminine lowell
mess will have practically vanished from
the earth. Wherever q dark man mar
ries a blonde woman, or vice versa, sc
per cent, of the children born have dark
hair and eyes. At that rate not many
centuries will. be required to wipe out
the fair type altogether. Observations
covering millions of persons of both
sexes have resulted in the discovery
that dark people bring more children
into the world than fair people. Fur
thermores they have greater muscular
vigor. and they live longer. Thus in
every point which has to do with the
perpetuation Of a species they are SUI
perior. The rule in nature seems to be
that pigment, which gives color to the
hair and eyes, is an indication of force.

MAN MIenrr, RUr cAN,rFLE nUou

MANMIGHTR, BUT CAN'FFLY MUCH
Man is a mighty being, but he can't
fly well vet, and there are many Of the
lower orders that can beat him out of
sight in flying. William w. Murphy,
engineer on a fast express which runs
between Hannibal and st. Joseph, has
been making observations on the speed
Of various birds and insects. Many
birds. he says, make practice Of flying
beside or in front. of his engine, and,
when the weather is clear and there is
no wind he opens the throttle and races
with them. He finds that chicken
hawk and a crow can make twenty
five miles an hour. A turkey buzzaro
flies at the rate of twenty-one miles an
hour. The pigeon is one of the fastest
birds in the United States. 1t makes a
speed of forty-six miles an hour with
ease. When chased by an eagle it can
beat the Burlington's st. Louis express.
The wild duck is travelling at the rate
Of forty-four miles an hour while the
hunter is pumping the contents of a re-
peating rife at it. The blackbird. robin,
dove and other small birds travel at a
speed Of thirty-eight miles an hour.
The hunming bird can, and does, excel
a speed of a mile per minute. Murphy
says that a honey bee, the other day.
flew in and out Of his cab window
while he was going at the rate Of sixty
three miles an hour. The performance
lasted while the engine travelled half
mills.
Big prizes are offered for the man
who can come anywhere near getting
through the air as well as the ordinary
flyers of the bird and insect tribes.

1t may be asked, saEss a writer in
the Bookman, What is an illustration
OF the discretion of political CORE
npondent? answer: Several of the cor
respondents were chatting with Presi-
dent Mckinley in his office In the White
house early in 1900. Senator Hanna
dropped in and the president said:
Mark, you're the very man want to
see. ! want to tell you that you mustn't
push that subsidy of yours this session.
/ know it's the pride of your heart, but
you mustn't do it. It's not wise. It won't
do" The correspondents who were
present merely sent to their newspapers
that night the information that there
was little or no likelihood that Sena-
tor Hanna's ship subsidy bill would go
through that winter. Again, when
President Mckinley was berated for not
hurrying along the war with Spain, he
told the correspondents, 81 haven't got
enough of that big brown powder on
hand vet. We are pushing the mills as
fast as possible" The correspondents
gave a number of reasons for the delay
in the war preparations, all truthful,
but they neglected to give the real rea-
son in their dispatches to their news
papers. That would have been too good
reading for Spain, and might have in
jured our cause. .-.. j. VI

The other day the time arrived for G.
Stern, the leading jockey of France, to
take his term of service in the French
army. He made application to enter a
cavalry regiment. The authorities at
the war office have refused his request.
The reason given is that Stern has only
one year to serve, and that it is impos-
sible to form an efficient cavalryman in
less than three years. This incident is
believed to establish new record in
the work of red-tapeism.
