ATTACKS PLATFORM.

The falsity of the insinuation in
the Denver platform that labor I'M
ions are outlawed," Mr.. Van Cleave
says, lis shown by the fact that their
members continue in their regular
employment on every working day
in the year in every town in the
United States. Every member of the
Lincoln Typographical union. at
whose banquet he was a guest on
the evening before his formal notifi-
cation of nomination, could have told
Mr.. Bryan that there is not a vestige
of truth in the pretense that any act
of congress or any ruling of any fed
eral court ever forbade any labor
union to organize. to ask such wages
from employers as the union saw fit
to ask, or 10 make any terms of en-
ployment which would be agreeable

Lord Wolsey, who has just passed
his seventy-fifth birthday, has prob
ably had more narrow escapes from
death than any other living British
officer. In his younger days his lord
ship was so daring that he earned
from the Ashantis the title of The
General Who Never Stops.

CUSTOMS OF THE STREET.

In crowded city streets, especially III
London and Paris, when a driver Is
halted 10y another driver ahead of him
he throws up his hand or his whip per-
pendlcularly as a warning to the man
back OF him. Thus warned the next
driver checks his team and then holds
his hand or his whip as warning TO
the man back of him.
Thus there might be seen going up
one after another in a line stretching
back hands or whips to the number of
half dozen or more as the drivers
were successfully halted or slowed
down by the blockade in front.
So of drivers Of horse drawn vehl-
oles, whose drivers commonly sit high
where their hands or whips can be seen
above their heads. This signaling rs
done somewhat differently by the drlV-
ers OF automobiles, who slt low. So
IN such circumstances what the auto
mobile river does TO signal to the man
back of him that he Is held up is to
stretch his arm out outside of his vehi-
Gle horizontally TO the right-Washlns-
ton Post.

For most of the offenses above stated

the separation order has been in eff
feet for Ave years without any recon
citation having taken place. II does
not remove that glarng anomaly of
the English law which discriminates
so unjustly between the consequences
of infldelity on the part of the wife and
infidelity on the part of the husband,
The better and more direct method
would seem to be to make those grounds
for which permanent separations are
now granted causes for divorce. Prob
ably Mr.. Bottomley has adopted the
round about method to avoid arousing
those ecclesiastical and social pretudices
which are so strongly opposed to any
broadening of the divorce law. But II
is doubtful IL the subterfuge will help
him to obtain the votes necessary for

a, conservative folk, tied down to con-
ventionalities and traditions and slow

those which appeal TO their pockets.
Something more will be needed than a
mere demonstration of the injustice and
iniauity OF the English divorce law TO
make them mend 1t.

interchangeable and meant the same

4akir' is of eastern origin, and was
originally applied to the Hindoo asce-
tic or mendicant Then it was applied
TO the people who make their living
by street entertainments such as snake

Since many of these people We're not
always honest in their dealings with
the public, gradually the word came to
be applied TO the street hawkers and
boothleepers who are negaged in gull

But a 'fakir' is simply man who
