TWO MELANCHOLY PICTURES.

In his annual report Commissioner of Pensions Ware refers with deep feel ing to the deaths among pensioners during the past year. He says: Tt is indeed sorrowful to contemplate that the number of deaths during the year was 31, ,72S," and he adds that it is esti- mated that 47.000 are expected to die during the next year.
 The New York Evening Post agrees
 that it is natural to view with feeling this number of deaths, but it adds:
 But there are other things in the report to occasion melancholy feelings; such, for instance, as the fact that, though the number of pensioners de. clined from 996.545 to 994,762, the amount paid increased from $137,759, 653 to 41,093,571. That is, with 1,733 less names on his books, Com missioner Ware paid out $3,333. .935 more in money. Let us hope that an increase of over 15.000 deaths ir the present fiscal year will not have an eff. feet upon future pension disburse
 nents proport;onate iii any measure to that resulting from the decrease in the
 list of names last year. But the sad
 dest of all the reflections occasioned
 by Commissioner Wares showing is
 that the millions who enlisted in oul
 Civil War from motives that should ex cite admiration have. with the lapse of years, come more and more to ses
 the monetary value of patriotism. One can not help asking if the fame O Leonidas anG the three hundred vo .iC be what it is if pension dsIas;ment. had existed in Greece"
 The ever increasing drain upon tn, ? treasury resulting from the activity O 3 pension agents and the iniquities of file P gal executive orders is indeed provo2 ative of melancholy thoughts Tn 2 country is beginning to wonder i : there is ever to be an end to it all

THE REVIEW THREE MONTHS FOR $t

The political campaign of 1904 will be one of the most memorable and hardest fought battles in the arena of politics within the history of the Amer ican nation. It is not so much a cam paign of Republicans against Demo- crats, or Democracy versus Republi- canism. It is a protest of the people of the United States against ROOSE- VELTlSM, with all the odious features which the name suggests. Odious in the carrying around of the Big Stick like a policeman, among na- tions, odious ill the extravaganza of the party whose powers he has usurped, odious in his assumption of the rights of the people, odious in his party's care for the rich few, through high tariff, and the burdening of the many poorer citizens, contributing to the coffers of manufacturers who sell American made goods for half the
 price in Europe, freight added, thai our people are compelled to pay for the same articles here.
 These are but allusions as to what will be discussed politically during the
 campaign approaching. The BISBEE

A renewed activity is reported in the mining industry in Sonora to the south of Douglas. During the long drouth prospecting was almost totally sus- pended, and in many of the camps de velopment work was stopped on ac- count of scarcity of water and the i'm possibility to get pack trains to carry the needed supplies to camp. To the south of Douglas is one of the richest mineral districts in the Southwest, and recently a number of mining men have gone down there to engage in it's devel opment.

PLAYED BOTH ENDS, AND WON.

Fathar John. of Cronstadt, the e'ii- nent prelate of the Greek church, must be given credit for knowing a thing or two.
 preached by his majesty, the czar, and asked fer a prediction concerning the sex of the expected addition to the Romanoff household. he communed with himself at length and finally gave forth a prediction that ''it' would be a girl. The prelate, who holds high place as prophet in the mind of the ignorant and superstitious Russians, had probably been studying the law 1f chances with relation to medical sci ence, and he put his prediction on what ne thought to be solid ground.
 But later there were many manifes- tatious of imperial anxiety, and Fath CT John was called on again. The fate Of the dynasty was at stake. If another girl came. there was a great Likelihood that some playful grand duke or other would put a bomb under the czar's bed or add tinctUre of rough on rats to his morning coffee, and St. Petersburg would have another bril- iant funeral with Father Johns pro tector playing the principal part.
 So the prophet went into seclHs:on and evolved another prediction. This tine he did what the sporting fraterni- ty would call playing long-shot-he declared that the long-expected son and heir to the troubled throne might be soon expected.
 Now, in recognition of his prophetic ability. the czar is heaping honors upon him. But Father John was sure to win whichever way it came.

did you ever notice." said the man
who prides himself on his powers of
observation, "that every one uses the
same foot almost every time in STEP
ping up or down the curb at a street
crossing? Maybe you haven't, but II
is fact just the same. 1t may be the
right foot that is used or 1t NAV be the
left, but it is the same one pretty much
all the time.
"The movement is made SO often that
1t becomes a habit of the most tena-
cious kind. By one of those involun-
tary actions of the nervous system the
nerves of the eye and the leg and foot
work in unison. The eye of person
approaching crossing gauges the dis
tance to be traversed before the final
step is taken, and the stride is regulat-
ed to bring the favorite foot forward
in time to take it. The same thing hap
pens when the curb on the other side
of the street Is reached.
Sometimes, especially when one is
walking rapidly or when the street is
crowded, it takes a deal of jockeying
to get the chosen foot into position, but
the rule Is seldom broken. You needn't
try to find the truth of tbs principle by
keeping tab on your ow1bsteps, for In
so doing your will power will come In
to play and you will use whichever
foot you please. Just watch some other
fellow, and you will find out that what
l am telling you is a fact."-Philadel-
