CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Record Dem. ,
says: Although the President avoids
all tariff discussion. he does recon-
mend lower rate of duties on exports
from the Philippines to the United
States. 1t may be possible that herein
is contained a hint that he will not
be less considerable of the people of
the continent than of the people of the
Islands. His silence is at least sug-
gestive."
The Chicago Tribune CRep.) says:
Within the last few years the cotton
manufacturing business i'm the South
has made amazing progress, until now
the mills in that section take as much
cotton as those of the North. The
steel industry in the South is growing
rapidly, as is also the numbering in
dustry. with its various manufactures
Memphis is now the largest hardwood
market in the world. Formerly the
South used to buy its corn of the
Western states: now ii raises its own.
The South is diversifying its indus
tries to such an extent that the money
which formerly was spent elsewhere
Will remain in that section. The re-
suit viii be that the South will grow
steadily richer, no matter how 1t be-
HAYES politically"
The Brooklyn Eagle Dem.) says:
I'VE advise our fellow Democrats in
the present Congress and in the next
one to stand by the President in ali
things In which he stands for the un-
mistakable purpose OF the people and
for the honor and interest OF the
United States. Merely factious or par
tisan opposition 10 him. by the De-
mocracy. may vindicate the eapability
Of that party for folly. but the past
should suffice for such vindication. The
President will encounter, within his
own political household. more opposi-
tion from banded selhshness and from
oncysted Bourbonism than he should
receive. He should be able 10 over

WHEN IS A MAN DRUNK?
From the Philadelphia Record

From the Philadelphia Record.
Pittsburg, Dec. 6.-Judge Marshall
Brown, Assistant District Attorney
John S. Robb, Jr., and a jury SHE'D at
an interesting question of law and fact
in the Criminal Court to-day. 1t was:
At what moment does a man become
an Incorporate person-just before he
takes the drink that makes him Woody,
or after he takes it and is Woggled?
Constable w. H. Johnston was in
Samuel McCutcheon's tavern, at Brock
enridge, and saw him serve to a man
standing at the bar a drink of whisky.
1t was admitted on both sides that the
man was not drunk at the time; but
soon after getting the drink his legs
were noticed to become unsteady, and
in a short while he was Enthusiastically
and admittedly drunk.
You oughn't to have given him that
last one, SAM" said Constable john
son. ITS against the law to sell liquor
to an Incorporate person"
But he wasn't Incorporate, Bill, I'M
til he took that one" said Tavern
keeper McCutcheon. at might be
against the law to sell it to him now;
but it wasn't when he got it,
The upshot was that the constable
made an information against the tav-
ernkeeper, charging him with selling
liquor to an Incorporate person.
On the statement of facts being sub
mitted to Judge Brown and Mr.. Robb,
both admitted that it was a close ques-
ton, and neither seemed to be partic-
ularly anxious to get into the argu-
ment.
Mr.. Robb disoreetly made a motion
for nolle pros. and Judge Brown
granted 1t.

Janausehek.s Hoodoo.

Mime. Fanny Janauschek, who died
last week at Amityville, L. l., was an
actress whose face was coined in sill
yer, like that of Faustina. and its
minted beauty brought sorrow to those
who made it. just as Faustina's fea-
lures on the Roman coin brought dis
aster to Sertorius.
When Janauschek was a young wom-
an. says the New York Press, she
Main for which Goethe
made his dramatic story of Mignon-
but long afterWard, of course. Frank
fort was then a free city and made
its own money, which passed current
the German Empire. Its treasurer was
Herr Won Grefke, a young man who,
in addition to his other duties, was
superintendent Of the mint. He be-
came infatuated with the young act
ress, whether from artistic influences
or other is not recorded, but in honor
of his sentiment he had struck off an
issue of silver coins which bore her
features, marked even to a scar on
the cheek. which the actress bore to
her death.
The scandal created by this issue
of coins was tremendous and within
it's limits worked the overthrow of the
local government and led to the sui
eide of Herr Won Grefke. 1t also led
to the passing of the actress to this
country, where she always afterward
remained. Enthusiastically the Janau-
schek thaler, which was issued in lin
tied numbers, is worth about $40, or
10 to 1.
Nine. Janauschek possessed a string
of them, thirtyfive in number, which
she wore in Leah the Forsaken" when
she played that strong part, and at no
other time. She did this because at
the time the coin was struck she was
playing minor character in the same
drama. She first came to this country
to play in German, and Frederick Pr
lot, her manager, who afterwards be-
came her husband, induced her to at
tempt English renditions. She essayed
the highest effort, and her husband

parts of Lady Dedlock and Hortense
In the interval before that success
she was forced to pawn her jewels
and among them the row Of Janau-

she redeemed them there were two

Perfectly Right.

Regular army officers say that volun-
teers are a trifie deficient in matters
of military etiquette, says Golfers
Weekly. AS illustrative of their weak
ness in this respect, Maj. Gen. Corbin
tells an amusing story of a young
lieutenant of militia who accompanied
his fellow-v volunteers to the war game
at Manassas recently.
1t appears that the young volunteer
officer in question was conversing with
certain regular army officers near
Gen. Corbins tent, when Gen. Grant
and his staff passed. The regular
officers arose and saluted, but the
volunteer lieutenant sat STILL
THAT was Gen. Grant," said one of
the regulars to the lieutenant. why
didn't you salute him?"
oh" responded the volunteer,
nonchalantly, I've only been here a
few days. and we haven't been in
troduced."

RoosEvELTs JAB AT KIPLING.
From the Philadelphia Record.


New York, Dec. 6.-The matter of
lynching in America and wife beating
in England came up at a recent lunch
con in Washington when Theodore
Roosevelt and Rudyard Kipling were
present. Kipling became quite frank
. in his criticism.
Roosevelt attempted to break into
the conversation. but the poet kept on.
At last the Englishman came to the
climax of his criticism. Whatever
Americans might have achieved, one
thing was reasonably certain-no ma
ton which habitually tolerated the kill
ing of men without trial could claim to
be highly civilized.
Mr.. Roosevelt turned upon him with
flashing eyes.
That's right, Mr.. Kipling," he ex-
claimed. 81 agree with you. II is a
national fault, national shame. Each
nation has its fault. You have your
fault and we have ours. We kill
men"
He hesitated. Mr.. Kipling smiled
and nodded.
And you beat women"
The smile left the Engllshman's face
and the subject was dropped.
Within the past week one of the
clergymen opposed to the present
movement in the Protestant Episcopal
Church to check divorce has privately
expressed his belief that IL serious oh
stacles are placed in the way Of di-
vorce wife-beating will become as
common in the United States as II is
in England.

In the Political Menageric.

The elephant looked with some Gu
riosity at the animal on the other side
of the partition. says the Chicago
Tribune.
What are they trying to do to you,
my friend?" asked the elephant.
The other animal was a forlorn look
ing creature, whose long ears had been
folded back and tied down. Its body
had been painted white, a yellow name
fastened to its neck, and somebody
seemed to be engaged in making
long, flowing addition 10 it's tail.
1t gave one wild, swift kick with
both feet, and somebody went flying
out through the rear window, carry
ing the sash along.

organize mel" brayed the enraged ami

THE CHADWICK CASE.

The mystery deepens In the Chad
wick case, and the curiosity of the
public is on tiptoe as to the outcome
| of it. Mrs. Chadwick was before a
| United States commissioner yesterday,
but nothing new was developed. She
is to have a hearing on the 18th of
this month. In the meantime she will
| be permitted to go where she pleases
if she gives bond to the amount of
$4,000. Just now. however. she is in
prison.
She confded to the United States
marshal who had her in charge that
the time would come when she will
show she is an innocent and much
abused woman. The inference from
what she said was that she thought
the public would then be sorry it had
not accepted her declaration of inno-
cence
1t may be that she will be able to
do what she says she will, but just
at present the public is more concern
ed in finding out the facts in her case
than it is in thinking whether or not
it will be sorry for her in the event
she proves she is guiltless of wrong
doing. Additional revelations are look
ed for with the keenest relish. It is
agreed that the $1,25O,0OO of Carnegie
notes are forgeries, and there seems
to be doubt about the story that there
is 100000 in securities belonging to
Mrs Chadwick lpoLod in,
land bank. If there were such an
amount of property belonging to her
the wonder is that it isn't forthcom-
ing or some evidence of it's existence
presented.
1t wouldn't be surprising if it should
turn out that the only evidence of
wealth she possesses are the proceeds
of the forged notes. Still, the state
ment that there is certificate in ex-
istence, given by the treasurer of a
Cleveland bank, that she has on de-
post in his bank $5,0OO,000 in securi-
ties needs explanation. The further
statement that when the facts are all
known, it will appear that a number of
prominent men in the East and West
will be found to be mixed up with Mrs
Chadwick's transactions only increase
interest in the case.
OF course there is but little SYM
pathy felt for those who lent Mrs.
Chadwick money. Greed was at the
bottom Of the loans they made to her.
According to accounts they got from
her 10 to 40 per cent. That she agreed
to pay such enormous bonuses ought
to have aroused their suspicious, but,
it seems, it didn't. They were so glad
to think they were getting such big
on their money that they over
looked the fact that the security
might not be gilt-edged. It ought not
to have taken a gread deal of common
sense to arrive at the conclusion that
the offer to pledge for loans more than
100000 of Andrew Carnegies notes
was sufficient cause for suspicion and
inquiry Probably there will be no
further disclosures to the public I'M
til the case comes up for hearing, or
the Ohio grand jury makes a report
If Mrs. Chadwick shows she is an in
nocent and much abused woman the
public will be greatly surprised.

Even bicycle racing is controlled by
trust, it seems. Five teams of the
best riders taking part in the Madison
Square Garden races believed that they
were being treated unfairly in the
matter of scoring. and entered a pro-
test They were told that they could
either go on riding under the alleged
Injustice, or get out. They elected to
quit. Then they were informed that
the bosses had suspended them. and
that they would not be permitted to
ride on any track, not only in the
United States but in the world, during
their term OF suspension. No matter
what their abilities or their records
for fair dealing may be, the bicycle
racing trust thus arbitrarily shuts
them out from their means of making
a living, until such time as the riders
are willing to knuckle to the terms of
the trust.

1t seems that there are still some ex-
ceedingly rich plums in the govern
ment's political orchard. Attorney
General Moody calls attention to the
fact that the United States district
attorney for the Southern District of
New York received in salary and fees
between March 81, 1890, and June 80.
1904, the magnificent sum of S273, 900.
The salary of the Office is $4,000 a year,
IN addition to which it is stated there
are fees that come to it which average
about $4,000 year. Thus this district
attorney receives about $1,000 a year
more than the salary of the President
OF the United States. The Attorney
Generals suggestion that the district
attorneys be given a fiat salary and
no fees would seem to be eminentlv

MERELY INCARCERATION.

Considerable attention has been at
tracted by the case of the white SOL
der, connected with the hospital serv-
ice at one of New Jerseys posts, who
was discharged from the army because
of the fact that he had married a ne
gro woman. This occurred some days
ago. A dispatch was sent out from
Washington to the effect that an in
vestigation had diclosed the woman
to be not of good character, that she
had a husband living from whom she
had not been divorced at the time of
her marriage with the white soldier,
and that on these grounds the dis
charge of the white man who married
her had been ordered.
The Washington correspondent of
the New York Tribune has taken he
trouble to look into the case, and
finds the reason given by the War
Department to be based on a quib-
bling report from the garrison at
which the man was stationed. 1t is
intimated that it would be the hardest
NAAAlS III NAiN WI Az W PAONS eAAS "OhAe'AA
to have been of bad character. Says
the Tribune's correspondent: THE
object of the discharge was to rid the
service of soldier who had married
a negro woman, and IL was intended
to put the discharge on some other
ground than that of the alliance with
a colored person. the desire being to
avoid all reference to the racial fea-
ture of the case. A white soldier
who marries a colored woman of
course becomes an Objectionable per-
son at any garrison, and the military
authorities were justified, say most of
the garrison officers. in getting rid of
such man with as little ceremony as
possible and as little explanation of
the incident"
In short, there was an insuperable
objection on the part of the officers
and men Of the garrison to having
anything to do with the white SOL
dier with the negro wife. But. proba-
bly, for political considerations. an
other reason was given for the dis
charge of the offender.

GOLD AND SILVER EMPLOYED FOR
CURE OF PNEUMONIA.
From the Paris Edition of the New
York Herald.


From the Paris Edition of the New
York Herald.
A sensational communication was
made to the Academic de Medicine to-
day by DR.. Albert Robin, who report
ed his discovery of the fact that GER
tain metals. such as gold and silver,
very finely subdivided and employed in
infinitesimal doses. exercise a consid-
cradle effect on the vital phenomena.
Reduction of the metals to the de-
sired state is obtained by their electri-
cal dissolution in water. The metal
so treated acquires the property of de-
veloping a force similar to that of a
ferment. This popularity of the phe-
nomenon has led DR.. Robin to use the
term metallic ferments" in reporting
his discovery.
His metallic ferments are employed
in cases of pneumonia in hypodermic
injections of from five to ten cubic CEN
timeters of solution, containing from
nine hundredths to two-tenths of
milligramme of gold, silver, platinum,
etc., produced a brusque defervescence.
of the malady in six cases out of ten
before the seventh day.
Thirteen cures were obtained in four
teen cases thus treated.
There is a complete similarity be-
tween the natural favorable crisis in
pneumonia, and that produced by me-
tallic ferments. Those ferments, there
fore, are capable of producing, aiding
or fastening this natural favorable
crisis
After one or two injections the tenn
perature falls suddenly, almost al
ways in a definite manner. The en-
ployment of these metallic ferments
does not constitute the complete treat
ment of pneumonia, for complications
and the predominance of certain symp-
toms necessitate accessory therapeu-
tics, but great progress would appear
to be made by their use in the treat
ment of this frequent and serious mall
