Soldiers Gard Foreign Banks

Like the Bank of England, the Bank
of France is now guarded every night
by soldiers, who do sentry duty outside
the building, q watch being likewise
kept inside its precincts, says the
Strand Magazine. But within quite
recent times the officials at the French
bank resorted to a very novel method
of protecting their bullion. This con-
sisted in engaging masons to wall up
the doors of the vaults in the cellar with
hydraulic mortar as soon as the money
was deposited each day in these re-
ceptacles. The water was then turned
on and kept running until the whole
cellar was flooded
A burglar would be obliged to work
in diving suit and break down. a
cement wall before he could even begin
to plumber the vaults. When the bank
officials arrived next morning, the
water was drawn off, the masonry torn
down. and the vaults opened. Curiohsly
enough. within a few months after
this obsolete manner of protecting the
banks cash was done away with,
burglars did actually get into the vaults
and decamp with about ,$45. 900 in
gold coin. &C.,.

He WH Slew

Lincoln used to be fond Of telling a
story of lawyer who desired the NOM
nation for county judge. On the
morning preceding the evening on
which the county convention was to
meet he applied to the livery stable
keeper in his village for horse and
buggy in which to drive to the county
town, sixteen miles distant, where the
convention was to be held. Give me
the best and the fastest horse you have,
Sam, said he, 80 that will have time
to go around and see the the boys be-
fore the convention comes in" T..
The liveryman, however, was sup
porting rival candidate and gave the
lawyer q horse which outwardly ap-
peared perfect, but which broke down
entirely before half the journey was
completed, so that when the candidate
arrived. tile convention had adjourned
and his rival hadEbeen nominated.
On his return'to the stable late the
followir g afternoon, knowing that it
was useless to resent the trick played
upon him, he said to the owner: Look
here, Smith, you must be training this
horse for the New York market. You
expect t. sell him to an undertaken
for u hearsa horse, don't your Well,
it's time wasted. I know from his
gait that you have spent days training
him to pull hearse, but he'll prove a
dead failure. Why, he's so slow he
couldn't get corpse to the cemetery
in time for the resurrection" d:

The Eternal Feminine.

Amongst some African tribes, when
a mant processes his love for a woman
and asks her In marriage, she invaria-
bly, refuses him at first, lest it should
appear. that she had been thinking of
him aid was eager to become his
wife! BY so doing she maintains the
modesty of her sex, as we'll as tests
the love and aliases the pride Of her
lover. This policy Is also intended to
be of use to the woman in her married
life-as, should there be quarreling,
and the husband threaten to send her
away, she can remind him of how he
made repeated professions Of his love
and urgently pressed his suit before
she consented to become his wife,

SPLITTING Of THE REPvRl4CAN
:. = :. PARTY ~ W.

1t cannot help but afford considerable
comfort and consolation to the demo
rats to notice the way in which the
"epublican organs are hedging over the
way the Aldrich- Cannon crowd is
manipulating matters in congress,
Some Of the old standbys-those sheets
which are so hidebound that they can
recognize no good in dern6crat or q
democratic measure, are now so
Illustrated that they are conceding de-
FEAT at the next election. One of the
last to make its plant is that stubborn
Exponent of standpatism, the bean eat
ing Boston Globe. 1t says, editorialIy
when Cleveland was elected in 1892
prophets were not wanting who pre-
dicted that the republican party was on
5he verge of dissolution. Yet in four
years the democratic party was split
and tine republicans seemed impregna-
lily intrenclled in power.
To-day, in spite of the SUCCESS of the
Republican, party i'll every election since
Cleveland's last, symptoms are not
lacking that it may be split no less than
he democratic party is. The. tariff is
tlie wedge that is dividing the re-
publican wings and carrying off not a
few democratic splinters besides.
The question now arises, will the
the managers of the republican party SO
smooth over all differences aSptO keep
he party intact for another successful
combatr Will Aldrich and his assist
ants hand the president bill he can
rDnscientionsly sign, thereby paving the
way for IL prrfcc: agreement between
I'll interests?
"Whatever faults the republicans
have, needless contention is not one of
hem. Its leaders and its managers
have shown genuine capacity for
government, and for that reason they
and theirs have been long intrusted
affairs
The same thing WAS true of the
democrats in the old days when the
wings were hopelessly divided. Slavery
wv 'iS "iiSSo uili llllttilN WTeSCe(l
control of the government from the
democrats.
"What slavery did to the democrats,
tho tariff and the entire system of
special privilege which is fostered bv
it may yet do to the republicans. 90
There are times when voters rise SUI
parior to party claims upon them and
unite to redress wrongs which can wait
10 longer to he righted. Is the uresent
>uch Il time? If it is. which of the two
;reat parties will benefit from tic i'm
pending change?
'"Ihcrc can b. little doubt that when
the gage of battle is thrown down, vic
t1ry will come to the party which shows
itself the sincere friend of the tariff
form. There never was a time i'm the
history of American politics when there
was greater opportunity for leader
.slan now. Will Mr.. Taft prove to br
the great tariff rcformcr? If not he.
will some other republican rise to the
occasion?
IF, on the other hand the new leader
# men is TO br democrat, the task
before him is Il heavy one. II task calling
for interchangeable effort. great skill and
