An Amusing "Bouauet."

President Hadley of Yale is consid-
cred a clever maker of phrases, says
the New York Times. His introduce
tions, used at the commencement ex-
ercises for those about to receive hon.
orary degrees, are usually little mas
terpieces; but his ability to say much
in a few words does not render him
immune from making bulls" year
or two ago an art club composed prin-
cipally of professors in the university
gave a dinner in which the wives OF
members were invited. The tables
were spread in the main gallery in the
art school, and President Hadley act
ed as POSTMASTER. AS is customary
when women are present at banquet,
the POSTMASTER handed out a large
line of rhetorical bouquets" to which
the women present were permitted to
help themselves. One of the "bou-
quets' was a surprise to those of DR..
Hadley's hearers who caught its unin-
tended significance. With a compre-
hensive wave of the hand, President
Hadley pointed to the works of art on
the walls of the room, and said:
What need have we of all these
painted beauties on the wall when so
many are gathered here tonight
around this festive board?'
The Art Club is no longer in exist
ence, and the only painted beauties"
present on that occasion are still on
exhibition at the Yale Art School

MCCLELLAN ELIGIBLE.

Interest in the question as to wheth-
err or not Mayor Mcclellan of New York
is eligible to the presidency is in
creased by the reports that Mr.. Muir
ply, the Tammany leader, intends to
bring him out as a candidate for the
Democratic nomination for President
either this year or in 1908.
AS is we'll known Mayor Mcclellan
was born in Germany, though his
parents were American citizens. The
constitution provides that mo per-
son, except a natural born citizen, or
a citizen of the United States at the
time of the adoption of this constitu-
ton, shall be eligible to the office of
President" The question is this: Is
Mayor Mcclellan a natural born citi-
zen? That question was settled by the
first Congress of the United States, a
Congress that contained at least half
of those who assisted in framing the
constitution. At it's first session it
enacted the following statute: Chill
dren of citizens of the United States
that may be born beyond the sea or
without the limits of the United States
shall be considered as natural born
citizens" This statute was simply
declaratory of the common law def
milton of the term natural born citi-
xen."
The fact that Mayor Mcclellan is
a natural born citizen is shown not
only by the statute quoted, but also
by decisions of the Supreme Court. If
he should be nominated the question
of his eligibility wouldn't be raised
What is astonishing, however, is that
the question should have been raised
at all. The question as to whether or
not persons born abroad of American
parents are natural born citizens has
been before the public many times-so
many in fact that there ought to be
no doubt about it.
1t isn't probable that Mayor McClel-
Ian will be a candidate for the presi-
dental nomination of his party this
year, but there is a we'll founded be-
lief that he is in training for 1908.

Identified.

A prominent member of the New
York Stock Exchange recently had oc-
casion to take some papers from a
safety deposit box in the Park Ma
tional Bank, says the Brooklyn Eagle.
His authority to do so was unques-
toned. but as he was personally I'M
known to the officer in charge, it was
necessary that he be identified. AS he
stood thinking who was most easily
accessible for this purpose, his eye
CHANGED to alight on an old employe OF
this bank whose face was familiar to
him.
Possibly that man could identify
me-" said he.
The employe was called up. DO you
/ know this gentleman" he was asked.
Yes, very Well" he answered. I'VE
have lived in the same block for
twenty years"
What is his name?"
81 don't know said the employe.
But what ever he says his name Is,
that is his namA."
This was taken as a sufficient iden-
tification; and when you stop to think
of it, you must admit it was pretty
good one. The man who for twenty
years has so conducted himself in his
neighborhood as to make this impress
sion even on people who have not
speaking acquaintance with him nave
a commendable character.
There is a goodly sermon in this lit
tie story for anybody who chooses TO

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Montgomery Advertiser says:
1--WE think it perfectly fair to esti-
mate that the cotton crop of the United
States would be doubled in few
years il the staple could be as rapidly
gathered by machinery as the wheat
crop now is. Thus a successful cotton
picking machine might not prove an
unmixed blessing. Then, again, low
prices for cotton in Alabama might
mean more food crops, and that would
be an entry on the credit side of the
ledger. But the machine hasn't been
invented yet"
The Louisville Courier Journal
(Dem.) says: 1.-THE day after McClel-
Ian was elected Mayor of New York the
stock of an ice company owned largely
by Tammany politicians advanced ma
terially, and when the company put in
its bid for furnishing city institutions
with ice it raised prices so per cent.
BUT the Tammany Commissioner Of
Health has rejected the bid, incredible
as it may seem to those who believed
that the good old days of Tammany
graft had come again. The new adj
ministration in New York is making a
good beginning"
The New York World Dem.) says:
Remembering 1896 and 1900, it does not
seem likely that the Democratic con-
vention this year will be either held
up or stampeded. But of one thing
there need be no fear: Mr.. Bryan will
not bolt. Regularity is the breath Of
his nostrils. 1t is his test of deInoc-
racy. 1t secures for him receptions and
gushing speeches from men like Bourke
Cochran and Edward NJ. Shepard 1t
supports the Commonar, which in good
part supports Mr.. Bryan. Therefore
Mr.. Bryan will not bolt. The World is
willing to go on record as prophesying
that even if Grover Cleveland shall be
the nominee of the St. Louis conven-
ton Mr.. Bryan will take the stump for
him. After seeking for eight years to
ostracize a million Democratic boilers
Mr.. Bryan simply cannot become one
himself"

INSURANCE COMPANIES HARp HIT:

In most cases life insurance COM
panies are prompt in paying policies
when they become due for the reason
that reputation for prompt payment
is an advertisement for new business.
Will the companies which had policies
on the life of James L. Blair of st.
Louis, who died at Eustis, Fla, few
days ago, pay the amount they owe
his estate without protest?
Those who are supposed to be ia
miliar with Mr.. Blairs affairs say he
carried $1,134,0OO insurance on his life
in eight companies. According to the
statements in the public prints 100000
of this amount is in the New York
Life and $3.50, 900 in the Mutual Life.
The amounts in other companies are
comparatively small. 1t is the under
standing that more than half of the
whole amount was assigned to cred
itors by Mr.. Blair soon after he was
taken ill.
The company which carried policies
for $3.50, 900 began proceedings for the
annulment of two of the policies soon
after it was alleged that Mr.. Blair
had attempted to commit suicide. The
case involving the smaller policy was
dropped The other is still pending.
1t would not be surprising if the
payment of the policies should be re-
sisted, especially those which were
taken out last. The ground of resist
ance will be probably the same as that
which was the basis for the annulment
of policies.
Some of the ablest of the New York
lawyers are of the opinion that all of
the policies can be collected. If the
insurance companies become satisfied
that this opinion is correct they will
prefer to pay to having litigation, be-
cause refusal to pay has a tendency
to prevent people from investing in
life insurance. The only defense they
could have to a suit for the amount
of the policies is that Mr.. Blair in
sured his life for a large amount with
the purpose of committing suicide. But
it is doubtful if they could prove he
had any such purpose.

Duly Thankful.

Congressman Warner recalls the
story of certain railroad employee in
Illinois who combines the duties of sta
ton agent ard postmaster, says the
Cleveland Plain Dealer. Having given
satisfaction by acting as postmaster,
but without compensation, the con-
gresham for the district procured his
permanent appointment. In due course
OF time the head of the department at
Washington wrote the Illinois man
that he had much pleasure in confirm
ing his position-"the salary to be the
same as heretofore"
Much pleased, the agent replied:
Il feel honored, as in duty bound, by
the confirmation of my appointment,
and am glad to know the salary is to
be the same as heretofore, namely,
nothing year; for I'd hate like thun-
der to have to pay anything!"
