class of men they send to the national Senate New York must necessarily oc-. cupy low place in public esteem. If this disreputabie old man has not enough regard for the State and people he represents to resign his position and retire to private life there ought to be some way to retire him nolsns volens. or something of the sort. He's . bad egs. Not every man who occu- pies position in that exalted body can rightfuliy be classed among the saints, perhaps. and perhaps some of them have been less oreditable. SO far as their public duties were concerned than Platt has. but even if that is all true it doesn't whitewash him. or render him any less unit for the post tion he holds.
 We know that there is an opinion held by many people that if a public man does his duty in all respects as such public man his private character and habits should not be allowed to initiate against him in any way. It may be admitted that a man who Is even disreputabie in private life may come up to the full measure of his du- ties in office. but admitting this doesn't relieve Platt to any appreci- able extent. His private character is simply disreputable. and his public services have not been of kind to overcome his private derelletIons. New York should rid herself of P,att or the Senate sheuld set rid of his presence.

Harriet Qulmby, In Leslles weekly.
 The number and variety of four footed creatures on the stage or in the circus and earning good salaries for their trainers is astonishing. Lions, tigers, elephants. bears. horses, clown mules, Shetland ponies who dance the dancers in sets, acrobatic 4ogs, horses that do fractions, and 'nkeYs that accomplish some teats that require al- most human intelligence and ability are legion. Good animal actors are always in demand, and the salaries they com naand are bow erfui incentives for train CTS to rack their brains to hit upon some new and amusing act. It iS not the cleverest act that wins approval so much as the most original and anus ing.
 There are two universal rules among animal trainers. The arst is to become familiar with the animal and to know his temperament and to make friends with him. The next thing Is to make the animal understand thoroughly what 1t Is that you want him 70 ao and to make him do 1t The animal must be made to feel that the man is his supe- rior; then unrenitting labor and inf mite patience are required If success ful result is to be obtained.
