is rumored that a muck magazine Is
 shortly to be established by Ida Tar
 bell, 'Link' steffens and Ray Stan ard Baker, three of the most celebrated muck-rakers in the business. who have been raking considerably for McClure,s Such a venture would attract attention just at present when the business of ax posture is fad, and none can deny that these three distinguished artists are well qualified to conduct such a publication Evidently they are of the opinion that great deal of the muck on hand has not yet been raked, which is. indeed a. pity, since 1t shows that the country ia more corrupt than at first supposed II would take lot of muck to fill up a whole magazine every month in the year, but Tarbell, steffens and Baker can de- liver the goods.
 WHEN FELLOWS HAD HIS DIN
 NER. When fellows had his dinner
 Then he doesn't seem to care If the tariff is too high and
 Gross corruption's everywhere. What the octopi are doing
 Doesn't trouble him bit When fellows had his dinner
 And the meal has made a hit. When fellows had his dinner,
 Little troubles fade away, And he doesn't seem to worry
 Over what the neighhors say. Tho the price of beef is booming, And the cost of living's high, These don't really seem to matter. For he'll quickly pass them by When fellows had his dinner
 He Is in the lSindest mood In a very playful humor
 And is brimming full of good. Public evils cease to vex him.
 Private wrongs are all forgot And he doesn't seem to care much If it's cold or very hot. When fellows had his dinner
 It's pleasant thing to see How considerate and mellow.
 Fen the crossest man can be. Hes no longer short and grumpy.
 While his tempers passing sweet. Hes a model of good breeding
 From his head down to his feet When a fellows had his dinner
 Not too much, but just enough You will never hear him fussing, And you'll never find him gruff. For the world is mighty pleasant

Des Moines, Ia, May 16.-Nearly al
the commissioners to the Presbyterian
General Assembly, which convenes il
the Central Presbyterian church TO
morrow morning at II o'clock, are IL
the city. Every arrangement for the
comfort of the seven hundred com
missioners and the many other visit
ors has been completed, and the spa
cious auditorium OF the church is
ready for the moderator TO call the
gathering to order and deliver the
opening sermon.
The canvas made today by the sup
porters of the various candidates for
moderator has been active, though
good natured, and the ranks of those
willing TO accpet the honor have been
added to. Among those whose names
are mentioned for the place are Rev.
G. James Mcclure, D. D., president of
Mccormick Theological Seminary of
Chicago; Rev. Robert Mckenzie, ID.
Francisco; Rev Robert F. Carson, d.
D., of Brooklyn; Rev William Henry
Roberts of Philadelphia, stated clerk
of the Presbyterian General Assem-
bly,; Rev. Dr. Alexander B. Marshall,
pastor of First Presbyterian church
of Minneapolis; Rev. DR.. John Hendy
of Kansas City, and Rev. DR.. Hunter
Corbett, the famous missionary of
China. The leading candidates, how
ever, are the first three mentioned.
OF these DIR. Mcclure is regarded as
the leading candidate of the Western
element, while the claims of Drs. Nc
Kenzie and Carson are being pushed
by the Eastern Presbyterians.
In addition to the election of a mod
derator there is much other business
of Importance to occupy the present
session of the General Assembly. The
final steps in the union of the Cum
berland Presbyterian church and the
older body are to be taken, and there
seems no doubt that the union will
be contaminated, despite the opposi-
ton that has arisen in some quarters
The commissioners will be shown
completed copies of the new Presby-
terrain ritual, the Book of Common
Worship, which was adopted in part
by the last assembly, for voluntary |
use in churches Permission was then
given to complete and publish the
book. This has been done by the COM
mittee and the board of publication.
There is yet some opinion that the
Presbyterian Prayer Book" is still
an open question, and that it may
meet diSapproval. General opinion is /
that the assembly will approve the
work.
