MR. WATSON’S LETTER
Tbe Nominee Has a Sore Throat and
Cannot Write.
HAD TO SUSPEND WORK ON IT
He is at HI, Home in Thomson—Whan
Hefiets B-tUr He Wi l Complete
His Letter.
Atlanta, Oct. 9. —Mr. Thomas E.
Watson's letter of acceptance is hang
ing fire. It was to appear on Wednes
day, but it came not. Nor dia it greet
an expectant public yesterday, and it
may be two or three more days before
it is sprung.
Mr. Watson has drafted it in his
mind and has even made some rough
notes. He intended to devote a part of
last Thursday and Wednesday to it,
but a severe attack of tousilitis ap
peared in the nominee's throat and he
had to suspend. A physician advised
him to stop work fora few days, and
told him that he outfit not to attempt
to dictate.
Mr. Watson has not traveled as many
thousand miles or delivered as many
speeches as Mr. Bryan has, blithe has
done more of both than Mr. Bewail
,Mr. Bryan had his tonsilitis when he
delivered his speech of acceptance in
New York last August. Now Mr. MTat
son has a sore throat when he is pre
paring his acceptance. Still this does
not indicate that Bryan and Watson
are to be elected together.
Mr. Watson went down to his home
at Thomson, Ga., on Tuesday night
after the populist rally here, which he
could not attend by reason of his sore
throat. Perhaps today he will be able to
do some work on the letter. Last week
there was some doubt about his accept
ing the nomination. All that doubt has
disappeared. The letter will not decline
the nomination. On the contrary, Mr.
Watson says, he would rather lay his
neck on a block that retire in favor of a
bloated bondholder. He says that prin
ciple is not all there is in this campaign
—not by a great deal. The populist par
ty must be maintained, and the only
way to hold it together, says Mr. Wat
son, is for its nominees to refuse to fuse.
He fears that there is such a thjng as
fusing a party out of existence. -The
older party might absorb the smaller
one if the’ fusion idea were extended
very far. In his letter Mr. Watson will
probably write down some of hi? views
on that point, and they will not be com
plimentary to Senator Marion Butler.
Mr. Watson will also make some re
marks on the principles of the populist
party, not confining himself to silver at
16 to 1. The whole St. Louis platform
will be indorsed and some of the planks
may be elaborated.
The paper will probably be written
at Thomson, and when it is completed
it will be sent to the newspapers.
Next week Mr. Watson expects to
start west again. He has some engage
ments for Nebraska and may speak
in other states, although the national
committee of his party is reported as
desiring him to stay away if he pro
poses to attack fusion where it has
been accomplished.

JUVENILE LITERATURE.
In France It I» Trim to the Extreme of
Insipidity.
Literature in our country not having
as its aim either instruct Son or amuse
ment, but the production of works of
■art, is forbidden to French children. I
except fairy tales. Perault has written
masterpieces; Mine. d’Aulnoy and oth
ers have followed him. The fairies cf
other countries may have been mere
poetic, but they have never been as wit
-4y as the French. Leaving fairy talcs
aside, children were obliged for a long
time to be satisfied with the very slight
collection, bequeathed by Berguiu,
Bouiily, Mme. de Geulis, those clever
people and who know how to coat a moi al
lesson with a thin layer cf pictures, as
bitter pills are coated with sugar. In
fact, this is the French parents'very
ideal in the matter of story books, and
to please them the lessen must not be
too well coated o~ hard to find. f. r the
spirit of investigation is i.ot encouraged
in young readeis.

nave dontributeu toward it. We need but
mention Jules Verne, whose scientific
fairy tales have, alas, almost completely
dethroned those that appealed to the
imagination alone. But neither in his
books, nor in those of any of his com
petitors, will you ever find what both
English and American writers currently
permit themselves to do—namely, to ar
raign a relative, as, for instance, the
wicked uncle in "Kidnapped,” or to
make teachers hateful, or merely ridicu
lous, as is the case in Dickens’ works.
This would be an outrage upon the re
spect due them in the aggregate. For
this reason translations are nearly al
ways expurgated. The friendly adop
tion of poor Laurie by the four girls in
"Little Women” would be considered
very unseemly. Yet, for all that, they
were good little New England girls. T.
B? Aldrich’s “Story of a Bad Boy” w’as
deprived of one of its prettiest chapters,
the one about his childish love for a big
girl. "It is useless, they say, “to draw
attention to that kind of danger.”
Authors and editors are often greatly
perplexed before this severe tribunal of
French parents. The difference between
the books children are allowed to read
in France and those sought by their
elders, the contrast between the taste
less pap on one side and the infernal
spiceuess on the other, must greatly as
tonish both English and American read
ers, who nearly all accept the same lit
erary diet, young and old, parents and
children.—Th. Bentzon in Century.
NINE MON IBs IN BED. < UKED
24 HOURS.
T. J. Blackmore, of Haller & Blackmore
Pittsburg, Pa., says: “A short time since 1
procured a bottle of “Mystic Cure.” It eoi
me out of the house in twenty-four hours.
I took to my bed with Rheumatism nine
months ago and the “Mystic Cure” is the
only medicine that did any good. I had
five of the best physicians in the city, hut
received very little relie, tom them. I
know that Mystic Cure to be what it is rep
resented and take pleasure n racomendtng
it to ether sufferers.”

A Virginia Justice Who Had a Grudge
Against Washington.
A Washington man who had some
business before one of the smaller couits
in a Virginia county went down there
on a recent fcati Jiity to attend to it.
He found the judge before whom the
matter came, and as it was a merely
pro forma proceeding be had no antici
pation of trouble in getting it done.
When the matter was presented, the
judge said:
‘‘No, sah. If I transact that business
fcr you, I will have to open co’t, and I
will not open co’t fcr any Washington
man on Saturday. ”
“Why not?” ashed the astonished
Capital City man.
“Because, sah, I went down to Wash
ington cn a Saturday not long ago, arid
net a single judge was sitting in the
co’t. I am an attorney, sah, an attcr-
admitted to practice in Washington
co’ts, and yet because it was a Saturday
I was net allowed to practice there,
sah, when I hud some vital points to
make, sah.”
“Well,l am not to be blamed for that, ’’
said the man from Washington. “You
ought not to hold me responsible for
what the judges do or do not do. ”
“It makes no difference, sah; you are
a part of the system, a devilish bad sys
tem, sah, and you must help to reform
it, sah, and you are the first man I have
had opportunity to impress my views
upon, and I am going to make them felt.
Go home and reform your system of
Saturday co’ts, and then come to me,
sfili. ”
And Virginia got even with Wash
ington in one case. Washington Star.

Not Eager For Service In Cuba.
Spanish soldiers are betraying an in
surmountable aversion to a campaign in
Cuba, aud desertions have been very
frequent of late. This' has led to the
adoption cf an t xtremely strict surveil
lance along the Pyrenean frontier, and
all the trains running to France are
carefully sciutinized by the Spanish
gendarmes, to the imuoyancc and dis
ccmioit of many cf the passengers.
Young men are subjected to a severe
examination, and those who are uirnble
to establish their identity er give a sat
isfactory explanation of the motives of
their jouimy are'compelled to alight
and are ccmiucted to the gendarmerie,
where they are again plied with ques
tions, all the deserters detected in this
way being at once handed over to the
military authorities. This often entails
considerable delay, and in spite of tlie
watchfulness of the officials many young
sole..ers still succeeed in making their
way into France.—London Telegraph.
