a UNIQUE CARD INDEX.
How Grover Cleveland Got a Line on
Al the Office Seekers.


All the Office Seekers.
Among the anecdotes Of "Cleve-
lands first election related by VII
liam GOrhan Rice. assistant private
secretary to Cleveland as governor OF
New York, in the Century il the fol-
lowing:
when Mr.. Cleveland began to con-
slider his cabinet and the other more
important appointments special letters
came to him in great numbers. One
group Of these was most curious. The
writer Of them was II newspaper man
Of high reputation and Of wide ac-
Quaintance with Washington life. he
called on Mr.. Cleveland at Albany and
when be left stated he would send
from time to time information about
public lei unsigned. but in his own
handwriting. ThereupOn there began
to come a daily envelope containing
unsigned cards Of convenient form for
ding. These cards treated Of nearly
everybody proposed for the cabinet, OF
distinguished visitors announced In
the public press rs on their way to Al.
bany and Of well known men generally
who might be commended for office
themselves Or might ask Office for 9TH
ers. There was a separate card fof
every person, and his good points were
written in red ink. while ~discreditable
facts and undesirable characteristics
appeared in black.
THUS each card embodied q concise
record of the deeds and a keen est.
mate Of the character and influence OF
the man named therein. Giving as
they did an incisive. impartial and.
believe, upon the whole an accurate
analysis Of those about whom they
we're written. they presented a CON-
ment of unusual wit and wisdom upon
American national politics The point
Of view was that Of an experienced
and able observer of current events.
and the whole record made a kind OF
judgment day book Of men Of both par
ties conspicuous in national a6airs-in
civil life and in the army and navy.
1T can readily be imagined that not
a few visitors who came to see Mr..
Cleveland were surprised at the knowl-
edge Of the political affiliations Of
prominent men which was shown by
the unsophisticated president elect"

THE FOURTH DIMENSION.
This Tells What u 10, Though You
May Not Quite Grasp Il

This Tells What u 10, Though You
May Not Quite Grasp Il.
The fourth dimension Is 4 property
Of space quite beyond the sense per-
ception Of men, an abstraction derived
from the results obtained by well COM
pretended processes In the higher
mathematics. Certain things happen
in these computations which are in no
way susceptible Of explanation In a
space restricted to the three tea chest
dimensions of length, breadth and
thickness. From q sufficiently consid-
cradle number of such phenomena the
theory has been evolved that space has
a fourth dimension.
In the common progress Of mathe-
NAUTICAL study the need Of such trans
cendental dimension first arises In the
specific case of that plane section Of
the cone designated the %hyperbola. At
an infinite az we'll as in all intermedi-
ate distances Of that curve from the
point Of origin the line Is continuous
in a given direction: IL now to intlnity
q single unit be added the curve comes
into view in the Numerically opposite
direction.
In this elementary demonstration the
fourth spatial dimension appears to
suggest sphericity, but this is only the
beginning. It Is still under careful ex-
animation by mathematician. Sciol-
lists at one time seized upon the idea in
explanation Of thought transference.
