succeeding the last Democratic admin

average of $511, 900, 600 per year. This
large expenditure was due to a consid-

that period; but the termination of that

more of an impression upon the pub
lie mind than any one of the other
of Mr.. Carnegie's gifts, for the reason
that those who perform noble and
heroic deeds are admired the world
over and the desire that they shall be
rewarded is general. The real hero
doesn't take into account consequences
when there is need for his services to
save human life or to make great
sacrifices for the benefit of others. He
takes all the chances and acts quick
ly. The fact therefore that those de-
pendent upon him will be assisted if
he loses his life in the cause in which
he embarks, or will be provided for

act unable to take care of himself.
would have no influence whatever up
on his conduct.
For instance. Chief Gunners Mate
Monsoon, of the battleship Missouri,
who risked his life to save his ship
and it's officers and crew the other
day when the explosion in her turret
occurred, couldn't have acted more
promptly if he had known that in the
event of his death those dependent
upon him would be cared for. or that,

it will simply reward them, for heroes,
like poets, are born, not made.
Mr. Carnegie couldn't appropriate his
money to a worthier cause. This hero
fund, and some other funds Which Mr..
Carnegie has created, will have some
influence in modifying public senti-
ment in regard to trusts for the funds
are in the bonds of one of the greatest
of trusts, the United States Steel Cor
poratiOn.

AS is well known. the Rev. Robert
Collyer of New York was a black
smith in Germantown, Pa, before he
became a preacher, says Success. Once,
when there was little work at hand he
asked a builder in his neighborhood for
something to do. The latter replied
that all he could give him would be
a job carrying a hod.
I'm your man." replied the black
smith, promptly.
Years afterward, while an imposing
edif1ce was being erected in Chicago
for DR.. Collyer, he was standing among
the beams watching the progress Of
the work, when an Irishman came
along with hod of bricks. DIR. Coll

THE SENATE AND DIR. CRUM.

1t begins to look as If the Senate
doesn't want to pass on the case of DR..
Crum. who, more than a year ago, was
nominated collector of the port of
Charleston. The President has nomi-
mated him twice. and yet the Senate
has failed to act upon his nomination.
Senator Tillman has secured from the
Senate a promise that the case will not
be taken up in his absence, and, as it
is hardly probable that he will get
back to the Senate again this session,
the Crum nomination will hardly come
up for consideration before next De-
cember. And it will not be acted on
then unless the President sends it to
the Senate again, as it will lapse with
the expiration of this session.
No doubt, however, the President
will send it to the Senate again. much
as that body would like him to drop
it. OF course, if the Senate regarded
have acted upon it long ago, but it
doesn't want to confirm 1t and it
doesn't dare to refuse to do so. So it
lets it be hung up from one session to
another.
That the confirmation of the noni-
nation has been held off so long indi-
Gates that Senator Tillman has a good
deal of influence in the Senate, not
withstanding the fact that it is so
strongly Republican. 1t would be a
great triumph for him If he were TO
succeed in preventing altogether the
confirmation of the nomination. 1t
will probably be a good while before
Mr.. Roosevelt sends another nominal
ton to the Senate which he has rea-
son to believe is not acceptable to the
people most directly interested in it.
The wiser plan for President to pur-
sue in making appointments is to con-
suit the wishes of the people of the
community in which the office, to which
the nomination is made, is located. A
few days ago Senator Hoar said, in a
speech in the Senate, that the Presi-
dent in making appointments IN the
South should consult the Southern SEN
ators and representatives, and Senator
Bacon discussed the matter at consid-
cradle length in a speech in that body
1t is hardly probable, however, that
President Roosevelt will depart from
his present policy in making appoint
ments in the South, namely the policy
of consulting only Republicans. The

tim of it. It is a disease that doesn't
always show on the surface of the
body Indeed, it attacks men oftener
internally than externally.
AS to the cause or the cure of it
the physicians know nothing. They
admit that the only remedy is the
knife. and that affords only temporary
relief OF course, there are cases
which. if operated on in time, may be
cured, but the cures are few and far
between.
1t was thought at one time that the
x-ray would cure the disease in certain
of 1t stages, and then it was announced
that radlum was a cure for it, but
neither is cure. In certain mild
phases of the disease it is thought
that benefit has been derived from the
x-ray treatment, but the best-posted
cancer physicians are not prepared to
say that any permanent good comes
from that treatment or from radium.
The disease is much more prevalent
in some parts of this country than
others. For instance, there are about
three times as many victims of the
disease to the 100000 of population on
the Pacific coast as on the South At
lantic coast and the cancer sufferers
are much more numerous in rural dis
tricts than in large cities.
The doctors for a long time have
been studying the disease in all of
it's phases and are still studying 1t,
but they admit they are about as
much in the dark in regard to it's
origin as they ever were. or one thing
they appear to be certain, and that is
it isn't hereditary. They agree in re-
garding it a hideous mystery.

A CHRISTIAN NATION.

Is this a Christian nation? Public
speakers are fond of asserting that it
is, and some reformers are equally in
sistent that it is not, for the reason
that there is no recognition of God in
the constitution. But what do the
statistics show? We say that a state
is Republican or Democratic accord
ing to the majority of votes shown by
either party; that this is an English
speaking country, because the ma
jority of the people speak the English
language, and that it is a white mans
country because a majority of the peo-
pie are of white skin. Statistics of
the census show that there are APP
proximately 100000 people in the
United States. A writer in the Catho-
lie Messenger makes the assertion,
from data that he regards as reliable,
that of this population more than 50,-
100000 are unbaptised." These figures,
he says, shows that this is "a pagan
or at best a Christian nation"
Statistics of church membership COM
piled year or two ago give the num-
Der of religious communicates in the
United States at about 30,O00.000. 1t
is probably safe to assume that
these communicates do not in
clude all of those who have been
baptised. Infant baptism is still large
ly practiced throughout the country.
Most parents do not think their Off
spring are permanently named until
they have been christened, or baptised
under the name to be borne in after
life. But not all of those who are so
baptised become communicates of the
church. The mere fact of baptism,
or christening. therefore, hardly quail
ies one to be counted as a Christian,
except in the very general sense of
distinction from Jews or Mohamme-
dams, etc. In all probability half of
the population of the United States
were christened, and seven tenths of
the native population received the
rite; but the statistics show that only
about three-eighths of the people are
connected with and communicates of
the Christian churches.
Nevertheless, the fact remains that
the dominating religious influence in
the United States is Christianity, and
it will continue to be so. This influ-
ence is felt, recognized and accepted
by the millions who are not church
communicates. That being true, it is
not anomalous to call this a Christian
nation, Notwithstanding the majority
of the people are without the pale of
the church.

A "Deadhead'' by Compulsion.

Eyes, sir" said Col. Rednose, relat-
ing his trip to a Northern city, accord
ing to the New Orleans Times-Demo-
crat, they were certainly the most
commercial people l ever saw; couldn't
get them to talk about anything else
except business. And they had the
price of everything from real estate
to an alderman down fine, l tell you.
One day 1 saw a funeral going by, and
as we take a lively interest in mortu-
airy statistics down in Kentucky, it
occurred to me to ask a citizen what
the death rate in his town was.
expected the average death rate to be
at per cent. annually, but What do
you reckon his answer was? He made
a minutes calculation and replied:
'Fifty-six dolalrs and seventy-flve
cents, including medical attendance
and conffin.'

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Memphis Commercial-AppeaI
(Dem) says: IF the Democrats can
win in New York, they can win in the
nation, and every Democrat wants
to turn Roosevelt out of the White
House."
The Louisville Courier Journal
(Dem) says: According to the re-
port of the Civil Service Commission
President Mckinley suspended the civil
service rules only three times, while
President Roosevelt, in less than two
years and a half, suspended them not
less than sixty times. And of these
two it was President Roosevelt who
pretended to be a great civil service
reformer"
The Columbia States (Dem.) says:
Congressman Bankhead is the rank
ing Democratic member of the House
Committee on Public Buildings and
Grounds-which means that should
the Democrats have a majority in the
next Congress he would be the chair
man of that committee and have large
influence in the distribution of public
buildings. Manifestly the people of the
Sixth Alabama district consider pub
lie buildings more essential to inland
happiness than large navy
The Indianapolis News (Dem.) says;
MANY Southern Democrats have been
studying the effects of Organism on
the party in the North, and they can
not understand-nor can any one else
how any man can contemplate those
results and then advocate a continu-
ance of the Bryan policy. 1t appears
that in 1892 Mr. Cleveland got 1876 cleo
toral votes in Northern states. as
against none for Bryan in 1900. AS d
result of the campaign of 1892 the
Democrats had sixteen senators and
eighty-seven representatives in North
ern states. In 1900 they had one sena-
tor and only thirty-three representa-
tives, and these latter came largely
from those states in which it was
known that the party did not sympa-
thize with Organism. During the last
four years even the Democrats have
got but two senator's in a Northern
te-Maryland-and have gained but
eight representatives. This is the rec
era"
