Returning delegates and much news
paper correspondence and comment
confirm an opinion that the politicians
of this country, especially those who
represent the corporate wealth of the
country, were far from being enthuS-
iastic over the foreshadowed nomina-
tons. The unanimity shown, was the
helplessness of this class of our citi-
zens, rather than the spontaneous feel
ing. To say that Roosevelt forced him
self on the republican party is true in
this, that his actions, his personality

republican party, that the politi-
clans, in many cases the delegates. for

came from the doubtful state of In

It is doubtful if there ever was a sturdier human Neptune than Captain Webb. whose memorable exploit in crossing the Englisl, channel will al- ways be remembered 1t was mere i'll luck-a fatal chance-which, tossed him against a1 rock in the. Whirlpool rapids of the Niagara river and ended his life. Lord Byron was Il marvel in the water. He equaled the feat of Leander in propelling himself across the Hellespont without aid or relief from any quarter. and before him beamed no beckoning signals, glances and smiles from an incomparably beau tiful Hero. But even Byron never swan across the English channel As the champion of the silver streak of sea Webb was the wonder of the ages.

nxerre,mchesa.

The president of a college was talk. ing to little group of undergraduates about the wisdom Of economy.
 But while economy is wise,', he. said, ito be mean or niggardly Is the height of foolishness. The niggardly man is nearly always overreached. It is like the story of the miser and the mouthful of water.
 "This miser had a cask of wine in his cellar, and every evening he would send down his man to fetch him up Il pitcher. To keep the man from drink ing any of the wine he would make him fill his mouth with water before he left the room. Then, on his return. the man would have to prove that the water still remained in his mouth, and thus the miser was convinced that none of the wine had been stolen.
 This scheme seemed ingenious, and yet the servant, with the greatest ease. overreached his master. He kept Il pitcher of water hidden in the cellar, and, emptying his mouth on his de, scent, he would drink all the wine ke desired and on his return upstairs would still have full mouth to show the ,unsuspecting master."-Philadel- Dhia Bulletin.
