No man ever landed a particularly

There is this to be said for fudge

If a man is too meek in public, peo-

Neither party to a controversy Is
anxious to compromise so long as the
chances seem good for winning out.
What has become of the old fash

strange town, was "all turned

An Atchison woman who has been

day, and her complete recovery is now
assured.
Nothing is much more difficult than
for a country woman when she visits
in the city to learn to call the hired
girl servant.

In referring to the presentation of
the states silver service to the battle

message, hopes ''as many members of

Although Governor Hoch appeared
inclined to censure ex-Chaplafn Gates

punishment for revenge and greater
attempts at actual reform.

A little bitterness. evidently an echo
of the recent campaign, crept into the
governors message. In naming his
board OF control, says Governor Hoch,
political pulls were entirely ignored,

usual political penalty" Cannot the

FpOM OTHER PENS
THE PASSING OF CAssATT.

/
| J. p Morgan's youthful-headed part
ner, George w. Perkins, is not lacking
| in exalted ideas of the character and
public services of such captains of in
| dustry as he doubtless considers him
! self to be. He speaks of the late presi-
dent of the Pennsylvania road as having
died of a broken heart-a heart bro
ken by the constant bounding of icono-
clasts." IncOnoclasts are breakers Of
| images and idols-not to say shams-
which the crowd worship, and Perkins
pays no tribute to A. ]. Cassatt when
he refers to him as an image claiming
or deserving to claim the fulsome idola-
try Of the people. Perhaps this is the
Perkins estimate of himself as we'll as
of other high financiers; and they and
their doings are SO paraded before the
public in explanatory phrase all the
time that it would be but natural If
they should gradually assume to them
selves the character of gods. But A. j.
Cassatt was not the sort of man to be
fooled into considering himself an OBJ
ject of public worship, and he was new
er bounded to death by "iconoclasts.
That he felt keenly the exposure OF
grating among Pennsylvania railroad
officials is doubtless true, and most
creditable to him if true, but his heart
was not broken, or, If it was broken,
the "hounding' of public criticism did
not do it, for there was never much
of this in his case. Perkins further
adds that Mr.. Cassatt devoted a busy
and trying life to the unselfish up
building for public benefit of our great
est railroad" This is a par with
the stuffing of high financiers as gods
to be worshipped. Mr.. Cossatt is credit
ed with having acquired fortune of
several dozens of millions of dollars,
and his work was further made to
profit the Pennsylvania railroad stock
holders as we'll as the public. To talk
about unselfish and trying devotion to
the public benefit in such a case-well,
this young Morgan partner cannot be
blamed possibly for desiring to help
along the cataloging OF himself as Of
the transcendent spirits in the world
who have sacrificed wealth, comfort,
health and all in the service of others.

EvlCTED TENANTS BILL.
Finally Passes Both Houses of Paria-
nent.

London, Aug. 29.-The Irish evicted
tenants bill finally passed both houses
Of parliament Tuesday evening in
what Chief Secretary for Ireland Bir-
rell called an emasculated form. The
peers refused to bulge on the main
amendments, and in spite of the goads
of the Nationalist members, the gov
eminent elected to accept the mutilat-
ed measure rather than abandon the
bill entirely.
The principal amendments inserted
by the peers deprive the commission
ers of the power Of turning out the
present holders of farms for the pur.
pose of reinstating evicted tenants
and give landlords the right to appeal
to the courts against the rulings OF
the estate commissioners regarding
the value of land to be purchased.
