We fear that our luminous demo-
cratic contemporary is engaged in a
silly attempt to create an impression
Of a division among territorial repub-
licans for the purpose OF erecting
screen to obscure a real democratic
row in which the participants shake
fists and cast aspersions upon one
auother's motives and veracity. There
is nothing whatever the matter with US
republicans. We are satisfied with
each other and the world.

the generally accepted limitation of

to be between SO and so; the proper

After considering the merits of
more than 40 applicants for the po-
sition, the board Of directors Of the
Missouri Historical society elected
Miss Idress Head, teacher Of his
tory in the normal school at Cape
Girardeau, librarian Of the society to
succeed the late Miss Dalton. The
new librarian has made a special
study of the states history and for
two years has been actively engaged
in assisting Louis Houck, a wealthy
railroad magnate Of Cape Girardeau,
in preparing a history Of Missouri
which is to be published Don Miss
Head was born in Randolph coun-
ty. She is connected with one OF the
oldest Missouri families. In order to
take up her new work she will have
to give up a position which pays her
a much larger salary than the society
can afford to pay her. She will have
an opportunity, however, to increase
her income by literary contributions
to magazines, the preparations OF
which will be facilitated by her posi-
ton.

Character in a Hat.

A German professor claims to read
the character Of a man by the angle at
which he ear his hat. This would
scarcely be possible IN the case Of a
woman. the rakish tilt Of whose head
gear varies as the seasons, according
to the mandate of her mllliner. The
German student in question does not
let the ont escape So easily, for
he reads their character-by their
heels. This idea is not a new one,
Tor it is often claimed that both men
and women may be judged by the con
dition Of their footgear.

An Old One Revived.

Notwithstanding the heat, many
readers of the state press are foolish
enough to worry over this: A China
man died, leaving one-half his pro-
perty to his eldest son, one-third to
the second and one-ninth to the
youngest. The property consisted of
II elephants, and as they could not
so divide them without using an axe,
the heirs called on a wise neighbor
for advice, The neighbor had an ele-
plant which he added to the herd,
making eighteen. Then the eldest
heir took his half, or nine; the sec
ond took his third, OF six, and the
youngest his ninth, or two. The
nelghbor then took his Owl elephant
But was the property properly di'
yided.

Neither King Carol Of Roumania nor
his queen, Known in the world Of liter
ature as Carmen sylvia. had any de-
sire for regal honors, and when the as
sassinatlon OF Gear Alexander in 1881
forced them on Roumania's unhappy
throne, they went protestingly. Carol
finally consented to be king, but de-
clared he would never sit upon a
throne nor wear a crown.
The chamber and senate at Buchal
est insisted, declaring the people want
ed and had a right to expect these
symbols of royalty. Carol protested
that a coronation ceremony would
make himself and his wife ridiculous,
like actors in a play but was forced
to yield and get himself q crown.
But no headgear Of silks and pre-.
cious stones for him. He sent to the
arsenal for one of the cannon captured
from the Turks, ordered that it be
melted down and from its steel q
crown be made, Gin remembrance Of
