The Steady Man.

We'd like to write a little rhyme
about the steady man, who keeps OR
pegging all the time and does the
best he can; the man who early goes
to work and doesn't get home till late;
nor ever try to shirk in order to be
great. There are some fellows who
will try to do their business tricks
and have a finger in the pie of city
politics; they try to put on lots of
style and play heavy role, and in
little bit O. while you find them in
hole! like the man of steady pace,
his system l admire; he has no wild
desire to place more irons in the fire!

MAURA'S FALL BRINGS. RELIEF
OF MoRET HAS A
QUlETING EFFECT.
Hope Is Encouraged That Period of
Internal Tranquility Has Been
Ushered In.

Madrid.-The fall of Premier Maura
and the conservative cabinet brought
a feeling of relief. 1t encourages the
hope that a period of internal tran
quillity has been ushered in.
1t is now an open secret that Maui
ra's refusal to give King Alfonso an
opportunity to pardon Prof. Ferrer
is regretted by the king.
Senior Moret y Prendergast, premier
of the new liberal cabinet, explained
to-day that because of the death of
his wife, son and daughter, and his
advancing years, he had not wished
to assume power. He declared that
the liberal government would reverse
the policy of Maura and maintain So
cial order, with due respect for the
law.
Most of the republican senators and
deputies express themselves as salts
fed with the latest turn of events, par
ticularly as they believe that it marks
the end Of clerical influence with the
government. One of these said:
"The new cabinet contains elements
openly anti-clerical and thus it be-
comes possible to establish an aiti-
clerical policy, so necessary to Spain"
However, radical members of the
cortes, such as Deputy Seriano, who
also is editor of Espana Nueva, an
nounce an intention to fight the new
ministry because of it's alleged mon
archical tendencies.
They expect a series of swift
changes, bringing about a situation
like that which began with the insur-
rection in the fleet in 1868 and culmi-
mated in 1873 with the abdication of
King Amadeus and the establishment
of short-lived republic.
The liberal papers are filled with
rejoicings over what they term the
end of the tyrannical rule of Maura.

Silk Stockings Indispensable.

Susan B. Anthony was a woman OF
