SOME HoPE TOR RUSSIA.

Prince Sviatopolk-Mirsky, the new head man in Russia, is talking pretty smoothly and evidently doesn't want to be assassinated without chance. to show some fruits of his deep desire for ''the welfare of the people," He points out that though people abroad speak of a new constitution for Russia such a thing is impossible under present con- ditions, but there is such thing as local self-government, as exemplified in zemstvos. He believes in zemstvos. Hehas gone through every grade of ser vice in the Zemstvos, and is convinced that they contain possibilities for the amelioration of the condition of the lower classes. Eventually they could give what the people want. There are other internal troubles of great import ance. and above all the Jewish ques- ton, in which he is deeply interested
 It is of the most serious character. He

oUIEq, AND WITH REAsON.

This is certainly a quiet campaign, and there are very good reasons why it is. The Democrat that could deliberate ly go to work to make noise about this campaign would be as foolish as the one who rent the bad air at the Hyperion the other evening, and as there are few such the noise is not large or general. It is now solemnly reported that the Democratic leaders have no hope of carrying the country for Parker and Davis. As they prob ably never have had the report is not very thrilling. When the alleged Dem- oeratic campaign started there was brave talk about carrying New York. Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, West Vir- ginia, New Jersey and Connecticut. Now it has leaked out that the Dem ocratIc managers have abandoned hope" of carrying Illinois, Wisconsin, New Jersey and Connecticut. "Aban- doned hope is good. They are lucky not to be called abandoned liars.
 Perhaps there has never been so quiet a campaign. The stock market is booming, business is picking up, and the country is getting ready to wallow again in Republican prosperity.

has studied it carefully and most faith fully. For Jews of the higher and bet ter classes Russia has. he says, done much. The EmperOr's recent ukase ex- tended the privilege of residence and occupation. But it is the condition of the poorer classes which is most press ing. They are restricted to residence in towns and cities within the pale, where they live as best they can. He desires earnestly to give them larger oppOrtu- mites, for life and work.
 Good and encouraging, as far as it goes. We shall soon see how much it means. The Prince is in a dangerous place. He may make some of the need- ed reforms, but if he is slow about it, or doesn't satisfy the revolutionists he will not be able to dispense with a guard. +...s. .......--...

HER MONEY ALWAYS NEW.

One of the tellers of prominent day. From The Nebraska State Journal savings bank was discussing some pe- euliaritfes of his business. we get money over the counter in every irlag- inabla ccndition,' he remarked. Most of the time notes are handed to us in a dirty, crumbled state that makes difficult handling. but there is one de- positor who always brings bills in an immaculate condition. This is an old German woman. The bank notes she hands in are as crisp as if they had just left the Treasury. It used to pug gle me to account for the crispness of the old notes she brought along notes that by appearance had been in use long enough to make them as limp as rags. So une iay I remarked about 1t, and found, to my surprise, that the old lady carefully ironed all her bank notes. She explained that she liked to have new money, and pressing with a hot iron made all the old bills like new. I thought her fad somewhat foolish at first, but later it occurred to me that 1t would be a good thing if people everywhere ironed their bank notes. It would kill any germs. Philadelphia Record.

The Chicago Board of Health tells wonderful and comforting stories about Chicago, and now comes the New Jer- sey Board of Health with wonderful and comforting story about New Jersey. It says that the doom of the Jersey mosquito is sealed. Professor John B. Smith, State Entomologist, is the di- rector of the work and he tells how the success was achieved. The first operation, Professor Smith says, was that taking in the region about the mouth of the Shrewsbury river and the government reservation on Sandy Hook, where more than 25OOOo feet of ditch ing was cut through the salt meadows. Professor Smith declares that through out the region drained by these ditches not one mosquito has been bred this summer, The second big operation. that taking in the salt meadow land contiguous to Newark, Professor Smith declares, will result in the eradication of the mosquito crop next year. .
 Wonderful indeed, and almost too good to be true. The promise that the famous and infamous Jersey mosquito is about to be eradicated seems rather large, but if it pans out there is hope for New Ravens east shore.

 Some time before the late George Vest became Senator of the United States he was one of commission which was examining applicants for admission to the Missouri bar. A youthful aspirant had failed in several branches of the examination. 1T regret to say" re- marked MT. Vest, that you have failed to come up to the mark in the branches of law upon which we have examined you. But" he added in most kindly spirit, i've will question you further if you desire" Well, sir responded the aspirant. q would suggest, if you please, that I be questioned on the stat utes." At this MT. Vest smiled sadly My dear young man." added he, T do not doubt that you're up on the statutes; but I do doubt that you will succeed in the law. Suppose you should have the utmost familiarity with the statutes. what's to prevent the Legis- lature from repeating all you know?"

afterWard repubIished as 'sThe Chinese Crisis from Within" how it was that Weng Tung-Ho became a convert to reform.
 He had been studying a certain trea- tise on Japanese reforms written by Rang Yu Wei, in which tho patriotic character of the Japanese nation was well brought out. It was. as we are as- sured, really a bit of rare good fortune for the young Chinese emperor to have had his education and training in af- fairs supervised by so capable a man as Weng Tung Ho, who was prior to that, the trusted minister of the late eastern empress. "Weng was an intel ligent literatus. who, though proud of Chinese learning and anxious to pre- serve the traditions and usages of the empire, was yet alive to the excellence and magnificence of western ciyiliza- ton"
 Now that it is rumored that, im- pressed by the revelation of Japanese power based on the adoption of western ideas and methods. the empress dowa- ger is contemplating a certain relin- punishment of her executive powers into hands more ready to adopt Japan's ex- ample and adapt that to the Chinese needs of to-day, it will be understood that 1t will have been Weng Tung-Ho who really had the chance of exercising the last influence in this direction be- fore the prescription and banishment of all who were suspected of reform lean ings.
 It will be his personal advice that will now be remembered by the Emperor Kuang Heu. should that frail young monarch survive to see the renaissance of China under the stimulating touch of Japanese precedent and example. For it was under the influence of Weng Tung-Ho that the young emperor grew up to be dilligent young man, whose mind was open to receive new ideas and whose interest and curiosity in the world outside China were maintained by the perusal of the modern transla- led literature, selected by Weng him self"
 When the Manchu opposition to the reform party came to head, under the encouragement of the empress dowager, in the coup d'etat of 1898, a clean sweep was made of the eInperor's enlightened entourage. Under Rang Yi's baleful influence Weng Tung-Ho was cashiered by the empress dowager, and he was banished to his native place. where, as has been announced, he has now died. When China rises to better things, even if only to follow Japan afar off with halting steps, the memory of Weng Tung- Ho will not be the least to be held in honor by the new generation of Chi nesel statesmen who are to rescue the empire from the slough of Canchu ig- norance. apathy and corruption.-Si gapore Free Press,

.lN0THER oRUMB OF COMFORT The Carnegie Steel Company has is- Isued circular letter to the superin- tendents of the different plants and to the heads of the departments in the plants instructing them to employ no men over thirty-five years old in cer- tain departments and extending the age limit to forty in others. The rule does hot apply to laborers. The order affects a large number of the most expert steel men. 5ss
 Another wipe at age and experience, which seem to be at a decided discount in many quarters just now. The Balti- more Sun makes a point when 1t says: The Steel Trust capitalization has reached an enormous sum, approximat- ing $1,5OO 100000. MT. Andrew Carnegie is large holder of it's bonds. Suppose that the age limit had been enforced against him in the years when he was to establish an industry where would be the millions which he is now spending on works of philanthro |phy? What an outcry he would have raised if the benevolent Uncle Sam had cut his profits in half by withdrawing tariff protection. MT. Carnegie enjoyed tariff favors up to the time that he went out of business He never consid- cred himself too old to be entitled to a tariff schedule that would take care of his industry. MT. J. P. Morgan and the other capitalists who are interested in the Steel Trust are never too aged to give up the protection which was once asked as favor, but is now demanded as a vested right. Why should they get all the advantages of the tariff and the man of thirty-six or forty-one be put aside and told that he is too old and has no vested right" in the bounty which the people give to industry?
 Of course these are inconvenient questions and will not be answered.

The United States grows some of it's own cocoanuts now. In the Philippines the cocoanut is one of the most import ant articles of export, bringing returns Of from $2,0OO,OOO to $4,OO0,OOO year. This is chiefly in the shape of copra, the dried meat of the cocoanut. In our small Samoan island of Tutuila the copra annually exported amounts to five hundred tons. This country's im- ports of cocoanut oil amount to over 4O,00O,000 pounds valued at nearly $2,- 100000. The oil is used in making soap, confectionery, medicinal preparations,
 food compounds, in the preparation of textiles, and for various other purposes. From 4O,0O0,0OO to 5OOO0,oOO cocoanuts are annually imported in the shell. Cop- "a is chiefly utilized in the manufac- ture of oil, but does not come to the United States to a great extent. Pow
