HIS TABLET IN HIS WORKS.


FRIENDS Of Herbert Spencer, the great Eng
lish philosopher, who died some time ago,
are amazed at the refusal of the dean Of West
minister Abbey to permit the erection of mod
est tablet in his honor in that edifce. They have
started a movement for suitable memorial to
Spencer although some Of them think that such
man as Spencer was needs on tablet of marble or
bronze. And they are right.
The refusal Of the dean of the abbey to admit
the tablet, Of course, was upon religious grounds
as Spencer was an agnostc who regarded the
orthodox religions as superstition. But he was
a far different sort of agnostic than was the ba=
tant Ingersoll OF our own country in whose honor
a monument is to be erected in the west But if
Spencer was an agnostic it should be remembered
that in his last writings he told of the futlty of
the finite trying to pierce the unhnite and pleaded
that those who had religious beliefs and were
secure in them, should be permitted tc enjoy their
faith unmolested And in this Spencer differed
from the higher critics and fraudulent preachers
who fill many OF Our pulpits and earn salaries for
trying to unsettle religious faith and belief
But the rejection Of Spencer is even more cur
ious because talented English actor who ie-
Gently died. was inferred in Westminster To
compare in achievement or greatness this actor
with Spencer would be an absurditv M,,t
scholars recognize Spencer as one Of the most
profound thinkers and intellectual masters Of this
or any other age.
He always scorned honors and never accepted
a degree. Spencer was the advocate Of extreme
indvidualism which is almost discarded doc
trine and he lived to see his individualistc theo-
res gradually fading away before the advance OF
the opposite doctrine of life. But whether one
agrees with his views or not, the refusal to per
NIT the tablet is a reflection upon those respon-
sible for it and will not tarnsh Spencer's fame

Gas RING MAKES NO MISTAKE.

M R. JAMES AUSTIN ELLISON who an
= a nounccs that he is candidate for the
Republican nomination for representative in the
Third city district declares that he is not acting
in the interests of the public service corporation
He says that he is in favor Of bill that will com
pei all public service corporations to pay their
just share Of the city expenses.
The first thought that may arise in connection
with this statement is whether it is possible that
the public service corporations have mistaken
their man and that Mr. Ellison is going to fool
them. The corporations usually do not make such
mistakes and so tar as we know all of them will
be behind Mr.. Ellison We -ouot, however, that
any Of the Legislative candidates would admit
that they in the interests of the public service
corporations. Somehow or other the corporations
do not appear to be popular A candidate does
not like being lined up under the black flag ol
commercial piracy and bossism
We do not believe that even Senator Dave
Rose now that he holds seat would admit thai
he is the Pennsylvania railroad member and w,
are sure that Chauncey p Holcomb thinks he
would represent solely the interests of the dear
public. Mr.. Ellison may be unconscious that he /:

HEAT IN HIGH HATS.

M EN- are supposed to have all sorts Of things
a at times in their hats. Political bees fre-
quently buzz there and not so long ago high
hat was considered necessity for man who
aspired to be United States Senator or to hold
some other important position
The physicians Of Paris have been greatly dis
tressed by the tall black silk hat One of them
has been making experiments. He placed a
thermometer inside of his hat and discovered that
while the temperature of the street was only II
degrees, the thermometer inside his hat registered
90 degrees. AT midday when the mercury on the
outside climbed to 90, the instrument in the hat
recorded IoS degrees At night, while the nor
NAL temperature was 68, that within the hat was
a8.
The doctor therefore concludes that many ner-
vous troubles and brain affections come from the
unnatural overheating Of the head because Of the
hats. The same ojection that applies to the silk
tile he says also applies in measure to the
derby Straw hats, especially the Panama, were
found to be much cooler.

deeply grateful to his State for having chosen
him as one of Our representatives in the upper

when he was not a candidate and when many

strong hold he has upon the esteem and affection
of the people of his native State. And it was
most fitting that his State should thus honor him.
His splendid services in the war, his excellent rec
ord as a private citizen, and his loyalty to his
party well enttle him 10 the distinction he now
enjoys. Being man of wide experience in pub

buoyant in spirits, there is every reason to be-
