Millions.

The Republican party is a spend
thrift one She paid $20000,0O0
for what T. B. Reed called 10000
600 Yellow Bellies" and has paid
out $3OO,O0OOOO to keep them.
The party is now digging $780,
100000 ditch at Panama and is
now asking for $2O,COO,OOO to forti-
fly it and later Oh will ask for $780,
100000 to keep up the fOrtifica-
tons.
And to judge by the ballots, that
is the kind of thing the American
people want.

Partially Cleared.

For several years in the list of
Confederates resting in St. Jude,
was "A Louisiana Soldier" At last
the mystery as to him has been
cleared. He and - Mann are
now said to be one and the same
individual. But the question? Who
is - Mann, is still unanswered
and there may never be a solution
1t is one more case of a man loved
by some one, drifting out into the
world Immediately after the war
and the homefolks waiting, waiting
for news that can never come, and
finally writing missing" before his
name until the time when there
will be a union up yOnder.

Kindness That Is Frozen.

The world is full of kindness that
is never spoken, aud that is not
much better than no kindness at
all. The fuel in the stove makes
the room warm, but there are great
piles of fallen trees lying on rocks
and on tops of hills where nobody
can get them. These do not make
anybody warm. You might freeze
to death for want of wood in plain
sight of these fallen trees if you
had no means of getting the wood
home and making a fire of it Just
so in a family. Love is what makes
the parents and children, the broth
ers and sisters, happy. But if they
take care never to say a word
about it, if they keep it a profound
secret, as if it were a crime, they
will not be much happier than if
there was not any love among
them. The house will seem cool
even in summer, and if you live
there you will envy the dog when
anyone calls him Poor fellow

COMPULSORY FRANCHISE.
Italian Prime Minister Gives Hill
Principles of Government.

Special Cablegram 10 The star.
ROME, June 2s.-The debate on the
home office estimates in the chamber has
given the prime minister the opportunity
Of making an important statement on the
policy of the Italian government toward
the church.
The socialists had complained of the
influence of the priests at elections
Signor Giolitti retorted that this was the
socialists own fault, for they had vio-
lently attacked the church. and therefore
the priests in self-defense. urged their
flocks TO vote against anti-clerical cam
d:dates.
The premier added that IL was the
bounden duty of Roman Catholics. as of
other Italian citizens. to exercise the suf-
frage. and expressed the opinion that in
any future reform bill every citizen who
had a vote should be compelled to use It,
He protested against the iliiberal doctrine
that any section of the country should be
denounced because ii had voted as 1t
chose and proclaimed complete liberty
for all shades of opinion as his principle
OF government. Signor Giolttti analyzed
the situation with his usual common
sense.
All practical persons are annoyed at the
recrudescence of religious disputes which
has thus arisen, because I.aly needs the
united efforts of all her citizens for. the
solution of her economic problems.

Special cabregram to The Star.

Special Cabfegram to The Star.
LONDON, June 2s.-A clock which Is
absolutely silent. so that not the slightest
ticking is heard, that is guaranteed to go
for LOCO days without requiring the
slightest human attention, and that will
keep correct time In any position-even
upside down-such Is the Eureka electric
clock. which was submitted for the in
spection of the king by Mr.. Sigismund
Kutnow, chairman of the Eureka Clock
Company.
The simplicity and science of the mech.
anism of the invention are remarkab BILE.
This clock is an entirely new departure.
1t is as unlike the old timepiece, with its
weights, wheels and pendulums, as can
possibly be imagined.
Its dial hands are moved by direct i'm.
pulse from the electric current. Hitherto
attempts at making a self-winding clock
have failed. owing to the complexity OF
the mechanism. There is. however. prac-
tically no mechanism. in the ordinary
sense of the word. in the Eureka clock:
such works as it has run on ball bearings
large enough for a bicycle, SO that the
friction is almost nil.
1t is hoped that the manufacturer Of
this clock will revive the clock-making in
dustry. which has been taken from Eng
land by German, Swiss and American
competitors. Formerly England was fa-
nous for her clock-making. and many an
old dial today still bears the name OF
some town and clockmaker we'll known In
their time throughout the world.
Now, however. American and conti-
mental timepieces have taken the place OF
the native product. The City road fac
tory of. the Eureka Clock Company will
produce an essentially British article, the
work of British craftsmen.
1t is further interesting to note that
lads from orphanages are being employed
and instructed in the newly revived sci
ence of clockmaking.
