The people of the breexy west hare a way of laying thing! in a rugged, direct manner that is convincing. Nobody can doubt that Minntaota Is a Cleveland state after read ing this headline in the St Paul Pioneer Press: “Ruth’s Dad is Q. K." Mr. Claus Spreckels announced a short time ago that he would not join the sugar trust as long as he was “on the earth." It seems, however, that his remark was made only for speculative purposes; the trust, and not the earth, has opeued and taken him in. Mr. Blaine, it is said, has tarried in Wash ington recently to “ watch the outoome” of the Bering sea controversy. Indeed, it aeems that he has not taken much part in the proceedings, except as a spectator, since Harrison consolidated the chief executive and state departments. The foreman of the jury in the Lands berg case stated, in reply to a question by Judge Falllgant, that the jury’s failure to agree was neither upon the law nor the facts, but was “rather one of a reason." If there was a “reason" beyond the evidence as adduced and the law as expounded by his honor, it would, indeed, be gratifying to the publlo to know what that “reason" was. Washington Is discussing the sending of a relief ship to Russia, but foolishly proposes to load It with delicacies, instead of follow ing the common sense example of Philadel phia and sending the neoessaries of life. If Washington sends canned fruits and plum puddings, some other city will pop up with a proposal to send a shipload of flowers, or loe maybe, for neither of whloh the Rus sians are starving. When the Borro we- Dray ton scandal was flrst noticed in the newspapers it was men tioned that the case was in many respects similar to a highly sensational tragedy that had been enacted in Washington some years ago. The Cincinnati Enquirer published on (Sunday the story of the prototype, in which Gen. Daniel E. Sickles shot and killed Philip Barton Key, district attorney for the Dis trict of Columbia, on Feb. 27, 1859. State Senator W. L. Brown, of New York, the man who wou local distinction two years ago by bringing Cleveland and Hill together at a banquet, (ays Tammany Hall •‘will not cry" If Cleveland la the party’s next presidential candidate. Senator Brown Is one of Tammany’s leading men, and his remark, though slight, tends to disprove the rumor that there Is hostility to Mr. Cleveland in the Tammany organization. The refusal of the chairman of the House committee ou rules to force the passage of the silver bill will have a good effect upon the campaign in Rhode Island. Publio opinion thero is about evenly divided upon the subject of protection, but it was about all one way on free silver ooiuage—against it. Had the oloeure rule been adopted the republican e;eok->rs In Rhode Island would have made good capital out of it for their party. As it is, the democracy will be benefited by the shelving of the bland bill. Baltimore and Philadelphia are having a friendly little ’’ tiff” about the shipment of western corn. The Orioles think the Quakers aie handling a lot of grain that should have gone to their port One of these days both Baltimore and Philadelphia will wake up to find Havautah shipping gram from western terrll ry that they bars eoins faj look upon as their o>.n. Deep water at this port will divert the stream of grain, flowing toward Europe, in tide lireoUoii. and deep water has been promised by the river and harbor uottiutter s MU. The Central's Future. A few dart ago there were tnanF who doubted that the Central Railroad and Banking Company had a future. Ila stock and some of its other securities could not be sold. There wav absolutely no demand for them. Confidence In the ability of the company to overcome Its financial diffi culties was about destroyed. The situation is greatly changed. Nobody doubts cow that the company has a future, and that if it meets with no unforeseen diffi culties of an extraordinary character, it will be, at do very distant day, as solid an Institution as It ever was, The con trolling shares of it, held outside of tbs state, have been rendered powerless for harm by tbe order of the court, and the men in charge of it not only have tbe confi dence of tbe holders of tbe minority of tbe stock, the public and of tbe creditors, but they are closely identified with the interests of Savannah and Georgia, and have a pride in seeing the road pros perous. Their beet efforts, therefore, will be given to the work of strengthening the company in every possible way. It is certain that Mr. Comer did not want the presidency of the company. It is safe to aay be accepted it because it was represented to him that be was the moat available man for the position, and that it was his duty to do what he could to assist in extricating tbe company f(om its difficulties. It is probable, too, that he was greatly in fluenced in his decision by tbe knowledge that millions of dollars of the company’s securities are held lu this city and state by persons of limited means and by charitable Institutions, and by a feeling that be ought to do what be could to save tbelr property. Tbe ooly way the securities can be pro tected is by keeping the company's prop erty intaot. Mr. Comer doubtless realized that the presidency, If he should be retained In Abet office, meant several years of hard work and great anxiety with very little glory. He will not regret the glory, however, if he succeeds in restoring tbe credit of the Central. But be and his board of directors will need all tbe help the people of Savannah and of Georgia can give them. It is neces sary that they should be sustained and as sisted In every possible way. And there Is every reason to think they will be. Tbe Central U an old time Institution that has a warm place In the affections of the people of the state, and, although there was some hostility to It while It was being operated by the Rich mond and Oknvllle, it is certain to reoeive a hearty support in all the vast territory tributary to it The greater its prosperity it tbe prouder will the people be of it. Richmond Terminal’s Troubles. The apprehension In Wall street that the Richmond Terminal reorganisation plan will be a failure is growing. Rumors of dissensions among the Richmond Terminal people are floating about and these, com bined with the steady decline of Richmond Terminal securities, indicate that there is a lack of confldeuoe in the plan. The holders of the securities which are really valuable are not dlspoeed to exchange them for oth ers whioh ars not nearly so good as those they have. Those who own the compara tively worthless securities are anxious, un doubtedly, for the success of the plan, be cause they can lose nothing and may make something. It is given out that one reason why there has not been shown a greater willingness to exchange existing securities for the new ones is that the new ones have not yet been listed on the stock exchange, and that, therefore, there is no way to arrive at an estimate of their real value. Thero may be something in this view of the matter. Whether there is or not will appear soon, because it is announced that the new securi ties will be put on the market within a very few days. The idea continues to he thrbwn out that it the holders do not aooept the plan they will get little or nothing, in all probability, because all the properties will be placed lu the hands of receivers, and that when their affairs are wound up there will be very little left for the orsdltors. As the receivership oomes nearer there may be a more marked disposition to aooept the plan. It is a hard matter to get investors to give up auv part of their investments, but when they get into an lnstitntion like the Richmond Terminal the chances are they will tear their hair aud weep bittar tears before they got out The democracy's refusal to pass the Bland bill will make some of our esteemed repub loan contemporaries—the Chicago Inter Ocean, tor instance—sick from sheer disap pointment. The Inter Ocean had just worked off a choice antl-eouthem editorial, compiled In the copyrighted style of spite fulness peculiar to that paper, hiving as its text the silver bill. After announcing that the democrats were preparing to pass such a closure rule as tbsy bad condemned in the republican congress, the editorial says: “It makes a great difference to these southern democrats whose ox is gored." In this in stance it is the republican ox that has been gored, but not in tho manner implied. By upholding sound currency the democracy has gored the republican ox so badly that be will not be able to haul Harrison’s apple cart to market. People in tbis country have learned to re gard China as a country in which every thing was settled thousands of years ago; a country without social or political prob lems. But it seems that this opinion is erroneous and will have to be revised. Things there are not at all settled. China is just now indulging in such a splendid political revolution aa would make our Bouth American or Haytian neighbors turn grten with envy. And the Chinese are ideal political conspirators, lnoiuding in their plots even the sacied throne of the “son of the sun," the emperor. A good priest at Fort Dodge, la., it practicing a whisky cure that discounts the bichloride of gold cure in many ways. He calls the young men of hlscougr gallon, known to be “high rollers," to corns and stand Before bis altar. There he delivers a touching address to them on the evlle of in temperance, offer* a prayer in their behalf and Implore* them to sign a pledge. They never refuse, aud very few of tboee who have signed bave baoksUddso. There Uno sensallosalisßi about this onre, and no danger of insanity following the treatment. The Krvnoh government bat determined that politics must not be preached from the pulpits. If some of our Araerteen preach ers would come to the same eomdueMM on their own aeeounl they would do • good thing.

Mr. Bland holds Speaker Crisp responsi ble for bis failure to get a direct vote on his silver tilt It is apparent to those who have followed the proceedings of the House in connection with the bill that Mr. Bland does tbe speaker an injustice. Speaker Crisp 1* as anxious to have a free silver coinage bill parsed as Mr. Bland la If it bed not been for his vole the Blaud bill would have been defeated by the motion of Representa- I live Burrows to lay it ou tbe table. But Ur. Bland complains that the speaker promised him that the oommlttee oo rules would report a closure rule so that the House could be brought to e direct vote on the bilL No doubt the speaker did make some suoh promise, but when he did so be had no doubt that a majority of the demo cratic members favored such a rule He was subsequently informed that many democrats who voted for tbe bill were not in favor of a closure rule, and he was re minded by them that he bad made a pledge when elected speaker that he would not favor a closure rule unless advised to do so by a majority of tbe demo cratic members. It is clear that tbe speaker did all he oould for tbe bilL He oould not afford to break a solemn pledge, and it is doubtful if the bill could have been passed even if a vote upon it oould have been ob tained. It it probable that the speaker was satis fied that the bill coaid not be passed when he eaw the vote on the Burrows motion. That vote surprised him. It surprised both the friends and opponents of tbe bill. It was tbe Impression of the best informed men of the House that the bill would be passed by a majority of at least thirty. Tbe tie vote on tbe Burrows motion disclosed the fact that a marked obange had taken plaoe In the H juee on the ailver question. Dem ocrats who were oounted on to vote for the free coinage of silver voted against it. Having oauvassed the political situation oarefully, they had reached the conclusion that no greater mistake could be made by the House than to commit the Democratic party to tho free coinage of silver. They saw that only southern and south western congressmen were favoring it while the eastern and most of ths western con gressmen were against it. Tbe conclusion they reached was that,however, desirable tbe passage of a free silver coinage bill might lie to southern congressmen who are seek ing a re-election, the Democratic party oould not afford to risk losing the presi dency by passing suoh a bilL There is no probability that the Bland bill will be brought torward again at this ses sion. Tbe demand for free silver coinage Is gradually decreasing. Tbe more tbe people study the silver question the loss Inclined they are to insist upon legislation like that proposed in the Blaud bilL They Will Vote Right. The great majority of the democratic alliancemen of this state will vote the na tional democratic ticket, even though the People’s party succeeds in getting a consid erable following. The more they see and hear of that party the less likely they will be to give It their support. The mass meet ing In Polk county Saturday, which elected delegates to the democratic state conven tion, adopted a resolution pledging the democrats of that county to support the ticket nominated at Chicago. It is true that a resolution was also adopted to the effect that no man should be voted for who doe* not accept the Ocala platform, but that resolution means only the alliance.nen still insist upon the Ocala deuiauds. They know, however, that those demands will not be incorporated in tho national democratic platform. The truth is, they understand very well that the Democratic party would be out of the national contest if it should adept the Ooala demands as a part of its platform, and they do not want to put the Democratic party in that position. While they nmy pass resolutions which are lnoousia'ent with democratic dootrines they are not going to leave the Democratic party for a party largely made up of those who have always been their po litical enomiea and who are not so deeply interested In the Ocala' demands as they pretend to be. When the People's party, made up as it is of all aorta of organiza tions holding all sorts of cruds notions as to what the gorernmeat ought to do for bet tering their condition, gets fairly launohed the Ocala demands will soon drop out o t sight. Although the South American republics are on the same continent with us, far loss is known in the United States of the princi pal cities of the south than of the citios of Europe. Indeed, it is only when there are rnm >ra of “another war in South America,” and the newspapers begin to print stories about the trouble that the North American public take much interest in their southern neighbors. Then they pick up old sc .00l books only to get unsatisfactory informa tion. In the casa of Venezuela, where there it some trouble now, all that m >et people know about the city of Caracas s that a great deal af coffee is shipped from thereoaoh year, and they imagine that the principal part of the city consists of docks and ooffee warehouses. Asa matter of fact Caracas is a very progressive city of nearly 100,00 J inhabitants. It has over thirty political newspapers, issued daily, weekly aud monthly, while many journals are devoted to literature, art, religiou, science aud the like. The city also enjoys the advantages of horse cars, long and short distance tele phones, the telegraph, electrio lights, col leges, museums, theaters, libraries and other publio institutions of amusement and learn ing common to our own and European cities. Russell Harrison may bo tired of “posing as the President’s eon," as be announced some time ago; but it appears that be has determined to make the most of the situa tion as long as it laits. Not long ago be made application for admission to the con gressional pries gallery as the special cor respondent of the Helena (Mont.) Journal, nod bis application was favorably acted upon by the praes committee. But the news paper me t in the press gallery have posted a protest against bis admission. They allege that be Is in no sense a legitimate corre spondent, and merely wishes to he recognized as one for the purpose of farthering his schemes for procuring contracts la tbs de partments.

With the fire of honest Indignation blazing In his eyes the man turned to his fellow passengers. “Geotlemen," he said, "it’s a shame to put a men off a car when he has plenty of money to pay his fare and Is willing to pay for it. If this conductor ma.es me get off can I depend upon your love of fair play to help me see that justic) is dons?

Rafael Joseffy, the piano virtuoso, stood talk ing last evening In the Hoffman house cafe to several friends, says the New York World. Near him was the owner of a provincial opera bouse, who was being shown the sights of the town, had had the various works of art pointed out to him and who had also been introduced to William Edwards. The gentleman from the provinces was In town to engage talent and when Joseffy was in dicated as a great pianist the manager scru tinized hi>n carefully. “1 want one," he said. “We don’t have no orchestra our way. and he kin teach In the day time.” Joseffy, oblivious of the covetous eyes of the rural manager, was talking as rapidly as he can when he wishes “if he offered me $500," he was saying. He got no further. The manager was alongside in a jump. •T llgfve you $000," he said. “My friend says you’re a good ’un, and he knows," “For wbat night?’’ inquired Joeoffy, “For one year, beginning any night you say.” went on the manager. • T ’ ’ JoseffY’a friends were fortunately near enough to get between the mea. “He ntedn’t a got mad," said tho manager, an he was led away. "It was a square offer, and tnera was his days to teach in.” ■Whitman’s Best Poem. O oaptain! my captain! our fearful trip is done; The ship has weathered every rack, the prize we sought is won; : The port is near, the belli I hear, the people all exulting, While follow eyes the steady keel, tha vessel grim and daring. But. O heart, h-art. heart! O the bleeding drops of red Where on the deck my captain lies. Fallen cold and dead. O captain! my captain! rise up and hear the bells; Rise up—fur you the flag is hung—for you the bugle trills; For you bouquets and ribbon’d wreaths—for you the !>nores a crowding; For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning. Here, captain, dt-ar father, This arm bonaath your head; It is some dream that on tue deck You've fallen coldanddead. My captain does not answer; his Ups are pale and still; My father duos not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will; The ship is anchored safe and sound, its voyage closed and done; From feerful trip the victor ship comes in with object won. Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells 1 But 1, with mournful tread. Walk the deck my captain lies, Fallen cold and dead. Potatoes and 'Bua Fares. The failure of the potato crop created a gen eral panic in a little Pennsylvania town severul years ago, says the New Y'ork Tribune. The merchants put the price of potatoes up to an exorbitant figure aud there was distress through all the neighboring county. The keeper of tne only hotel. Solomon Hanks, was vexed and troubled. He feared to drive away his patrons by raising the price of board, yet ids profits were hardly large enough to keep his family. He began to cut down expenses, and the first thing that had to go was ills free omnibus For sei eral months that crazy old vehicle carried the following sign: “Owing to the high price of potatoes, guests must pay a fare of 25 ceuts to ride in this 'bus. 8.

In 1944 Froment constructed a motor termed a crank motor.*’ The action was caused by the suction or magnetic attraction of the mag nets on an iron armature which operated a pair of b-vers working on a connecting rod and crank shaft, thereby turning a flywheel somewhat as a grindstone would be revolved.

Maw watches make 5 beats per second, 300 each minute, 18,000 every hour, or 432,000 per day Thus it will be seen that half a dozen turns of the key once a dav, taking up but a few seoonds of time, stores up a modicum of power in the spring whioh is cut up Into nearly 1,000.000 beats. If wa multiply the daily beats by 365J4, th e number of days in a year, we find that the watch ticks times while tbe earth is making one annual tr.p around the sun. Thr most meroiful way of destroying cats is to chloroform them. Draw a sock (knitted one preferred, as being elastic) over pussy’s head so that the toe of the sock is brought to her head, or nearly so; then pour about half a teaspoon ful of chloroform on the sock close to her nose. Almost as soon ns she has become frightened by the unusual smell of chloroform she goes quietly off to sleep; a little more chloroform is added perhaps twice—and pussy never wakes again Frogs’ ioos are laid before they really are eggs in the true sense of the word. They are always laid under water, and when deposited are covered with a sort of thin m mbrane, as an envelope, so as to occupy but little space. As soon as they reach the water, however, they begin to absorb the fluid very rapidly, and in a short time the eggs are contained tn the center of a jelly-like envelope, like a number of glob ules They are kept apart from each oth -r by reason of their acquired rotundity,’and thus escape injuring one another. Sunday sohools are probably as old as Christianity. Eusebius says that the Apostle John regularly taught the scriptures and the doctrins of the church to yCun< men and chil dren on the Sabbath day. Uis quite likely that, to a limited extent at least, Sunday Instruction of the children and youth was kept up through the middle ages; but the greatest Impulse given the Sunday school was by the famous Cardinal Borromeo, who. in Milan in 1880. or ganized a system of Sunday Instruction and put numerous schools in operation. The Locddn Academy quotes as follows from an unpublished letter written by Shelly: “There are two 1 tabes—one composed of the green earth and traniparent sea. and the mighty ruins of ancient time, and aerial mountains, and the w mi and radiant atmosphere which Is inter fused through all things; the other oonsiscs of the Italians of the present day, their works and ways. The one is the most sublime and lovely contemplation that can be conceived by the Im agination of man; the other is the most de graded, disgusting and odious. What do you think!

V isitors to the ohuroh in Stratford-on-Aron where lie tho remains of William Shakespeare will hear with Interest that the chancel has been restored and reopened for worship, says tho Loedou Telegraph.

The *tone which covered Judith Combe, the name saue, if not the godchild, of Judith Shases peare, was found concealed by modern tiles, and is now displaced to view. The old altar slab of the chapel of St Thomasof Canterbury, erected by John de Stratfor i, archbishop, was uneartned, having lain under ground since the reformation, and although somewhat mutil ated, is now used for the high altar. Th* matron of a well-managed foundling in stitution In Philadelphia, says the Press, when interrogated the other day, said: “I am almost convinoed If little babies were left to themselves they would form a curious lan guage of their own. In it sounds soft and simple would predominate and geitures would form half of the conversation. Have you ever studied the faces of these little sprites and seen their big, bright eyes twinkle and their chubby little fingers and dimpled hands restlessly move without ceasing, day in aud day out? Their language would be cute enough and all mono syllable*. Without much talk they manage to communicate with each other so as to be under stood, and curious little sounds will express their pleasure, disgust, contempt, love or note.
