 The young man winked agaln and let a smile flutter across his face. The little eyes popped bigger, the little mouth opened wide. Surely it was time for the young man to quit.
 He was just going to turn his head and break off the filtration when he had another desperate impulse. He puffed out his lips as if he were going to say "Boo!" He turned his head quickly but the little one would not be thus tilted. "Oh, dodo!'' the baby cried and stretched out both arms towar d the young man.
 Everybody looked at him. The young lady was startled. His face turn ed crimson. He is certain he will nevet agai intake clandestine glances at chil- dren in trolley cars.-Baltimore Sun.

A LABOR DISPUTE
 BOMB THROWING
Tbe Office of the Allied Iron Associa.
 ton, New York, Wrecked.

New York, Dec. 19.-A bomb was hurled tonight through one of the front windows of the Allied Iron association at No. ', East Fourteenth street. It landed in a room used for telephone purposes and exploding, wrecked the place. Several employees were stunned by the explosion.
 The Allied Iron association was formed recently when the structural iron workers declared a strike against the contracting firm of Post and Me- Cord. Its office has been used as a bureau for the employment of non un- ion men to take the places of the strikers.
 Post and McCord are the contractors for the Altman building at Thirty fourth street and Fifth avenue, where a premature explosion of dynamite early today killed three men and in jured 9 number of others.

NOT SURE UF THE PRESIDENT.

It Is not surprising, under the cir cumstances that self appointed politi- cal forecaster are prophesying that Roosevelt will be simultaneously, or as nearly simultaneously as possible, nominated by both democrats and re- publicans for the presndency in 1908 It is too early to put any de- publicans for the presidency in 1908 President Roosevelt has sprung into extraordinarily popularity in the south with the course of a very few weeks. Today he is a popular idol, but it has not been very long ago since he was everywhere in these states subject of
 denunciation for his behavior in regard to negro official appointments in Mis-
 sissippi and South Carolina, not to mention the Booker Washington inci- dent, and although these offensive acts have been generally forgiven in the south, it should be noted that the
 president did not enter, or at least he did not visit, South Carolina or Missis sippi.
 Previous to the Booker Washington affair President Roosevelt was regard ed by the southern people with more or ! less indifference. That luncheon in the White House at once made the presi- dent the subject of sectional prejudice and dislike, which were increased to
 most serious extremes by the Charles
 ton appointment and the Indianola | Miss. postoffice incident. Mir. Roose-
 welt fell to the zero of Southern es- teem. Now he has as suddenly risen to | the boiling point of southern approba- | tiOn.
 Impulsive as is the president, he acts ' in moments of excitement according IS i circumstances at the instant seem to 1 dictate Such acts are able to raise | hi into the summit of popular favor, or
 to drag him down to the extremes of public condemnation. What has hap pened heretofore will happen again,
 and we may never be sure as to what
 he will do next. The president is an
 honest man and means to do the right
 thing, but he is apt to be carried away
 by his impulses. It is, therefore pre-
 mature to make any calculations upon
 the state of popular feeling toward the president three years hence
 It is true that all the signs pOrtend
 a break up Of political parties. The
 democracy has already suffered serious
 disorganization, while it cannot be dis puted that a like fate is overtahng the republican organization. It looks as if there would be a regrouping of the American people into radicals and con- servatives. President Roosevelt rep resents the radical wing of the repub- lican party while MT. Bryan is the leader of the extreme democracy. In many respects their positions are not unlike. There are going to be serious political changes among the people, but any attempt at prophecy is the merest guessing just now.-New Orleans Picayune (Dem.)

TO MAKE FLORIDA AN ISLAND.
Would Sa~o 700 Miles Betweea New
 York City ard New Orleans.

A canal of great importance which requires construction is across the northern part of the peninsula Of Florida. Such a canal would save 700 miles between New Orleans and New York, and almost the same distance between our other Gulf and Atlantic cities. Most vessels between these ports must now go two days out or their way; and when time is so import ant and the cost of sea transportation so great this cannot be endured. Flor ida is level, and so can be cut without much difficulty or expense; and there are some streams which could be util = ized for part of the route.-Technical World.

LENTEN PRACTICES.
At the Church of Our Lady of lourdes,
Hruinia.

Every Wednesday and Friday eve
ming at 7:3O special services will be
held at the Church of Our Lady of
Lourdes during the Lenten period.
On Wednesday evenings the Ros-
ary will be solemnly recited, after
which sermon-or instruction on the
practices of the Catholic Church
will be delivered, and at the close
Benediction of the Most Blessed
Sacrament
On Friday evenings the SORROWS
of our Saviour will be sensibly
brought before the eyes of the faith
full in the procession around "The
Way of the Cross" The priest here,
accompanied by three acolytes,
starts from the altar in professional
order, recites those prayers before
each station which never fail to go
directly to the heart of those pres
ent, because they::are prayers full of
the sorrows of the Saviour. The
choir, during the intervals, chants
the solemn strains of the "Stabat
Mater Dolorosa." After the process
sion Benediction of the Blessed
Sacrament is given.
Lenten time is a time of penance
and self-denial, especially y in the
Catholic Church, where the use of
flesh meat and other luxuries is re-
stricted. 1t is a preparation for the
commemmoration of our Lords
passion and death. Each one ought
to spend it in fitting manner by
abstaining at least from sin, which
displeases our Lord and which cruc-
fled Him. Won't you try to do so?
All are invited to the above exer-
cises. Special announcements later
for Holy Week. .:,..=- ~..=:.~s1;.. ~.. ). :,
