Boston la seriously discussing the
propriety of teaching stenography and
typewriting in the public schools.
If the anarchists of Chicago and cer
tain other cities do not like the way this
country is governed, why don’t they
seek same other more to their liking?—
Boston Traveller.
The picture of Liberty on the new
subsidiary silver coin looks as though
she was displeased with something It
may be that the is jealous of the old
girl on the silver dollar.
The trouble with tho Brazilian Repub
lic la that about 75 per cent, of the In
habitants don't know the meaning of
the word, and the government doesn't
supply them with dictionaries.
THEHacon Evening News says: "It
thought by mauy that Col. Evan P. How
ell will certainly be a candidate for the
governorship. Said a prominent politi
cian today, 'I have no doubt that Howell
will run, and if he does, he’s a dead sure
■winner,’"
Among the papers read before the
American ornithologists was one enti-
, tied “Why the Mocking Birds Loft New
Jersey.” It has been commonly sup
posed that the reason why the mocking
birds left New Jersey was becauso the
mosquitoes crowded them off the perch.
—New York Tribune.
South Carolina will probably devote
$100,000 to an exhibit at tho world's
fair. The Governor of the State, it is
said, has expressed himself in favor of
the expenditure of such a sum. Any ob
servation the Governor of North Caro
lina may now see fit to make on the sub
ject will be listened to with -respectful
attention.—Chicago Tribune.
A bumob comes from Atlanta that the
Journal Is to become a morning paper,
and they leave tho evening field to the
Herald. The Journal's success has eu-
boldened it, apparently, to think that a
closer wrestle with the Constitution will
be productive of better results than arise
from a division of the day Into two
parts, the latter half of which is now
taken by the Journal. « •
Minneapolis has succeeded In win
ning the fight for the Republican
national convention, despite the fact
that she was warmly opposed by New
York, Detroit, Cincinnati and San Fran
cisco It appears that the selection of
Minneapolis as the place for the conven
tion is dne to the fact that the Republi
can party Is alarmed at the growth of
Democratic sentiment in the States of
'the Northwest, and the Republicans
hope by giving the oohventlon to one of
these States to stem the tide that set in
against them a year ago.
The Athens Banner heaves In some
good advice to be used as a relish with
the thanksgiving dinner. It says: "It,
is the season of rendering thanks, i
along with it oomes the season of debt-
paying. It is not easy to render thanks
at a season such as this until your debts
are paid. Have you paid up for the
year? If not try by all means to pay the
printer. The newspaper has greeted yon
each morning of the year with some
good news, making Its visits as regular
as does the rising sun. Surely you will
pay the newspaper what you owe it.”
“Now you see It, and now you don’t.”
This is the way the papers have it day
by day in regard to the Speakership.
Crisp stock Is 125 in the shade to-day,
and to-morrow Mills has it sure. Bynum
has retired in the Interest of Mills; and
the fight Is thus being narrowed down
to the two leading candidates. The
Times-Recobder having nominated and
elected Crisp some months ago, is tak
ing things oasy, and will quietly wait
until the returns are all lu, when the re
sult will be just as predicted; that it
will be Speaker Crisp after next Wed
nesday.
Cabxencita, the Spanish dancer, is
married. Her manager has acknowl
edged the fact and stated that the wed
ding took place In New York In August,
but had been kept secret for fear its an
nouncement might detract from the
drawing power of the dancer as a theat
rical attraction. Senor Pablo Eschapare,
leader of the band of Spanish students,
Is the happy husband, and the pair are
said to have been childhood lovers, hav
ing gone to school together. As a high
kicker, Carmendta has been a Mg sno-
ceas. and New York will now -be on the
anxious bench until it becomes known
whether the agile Spaniard will follow
Mary Anderson’s examplo and retire to
private life, or like the luscious Lillian
continue to kick and commit matrimony
for the edification of the dudes and du-
dines of the metropolis.
THANKSGIVING.
This Is the day set apart by proclama
tion of the powers that be for everybody
to be thankful, not only for the good
that has happened in the last twelve
months, but because the ills that have
befallen were not any worse.
This gives ample latitude for every
body to oome in on to-day's performan.
ces; tor while all the fortunate and
lucky people will of course see the pro.
priety of observing this'occasion, the
unlucky dogs upon whom the band of
fate has been heavily laid can console
themselves, while eating their turkey (if
they have any, or crow, If turkey is
lacking,) that it might hare been a great
deal worse with them.
It Is well to set apart one day in the
year for the specific purpose of being
glad, or coming as near to it as the state
of tie liver and bank account will per
mit of; not that exuberant gladness that
exhibits itself either in the fire-works of
July fouth or the fire-water of Christ
mas, but a calm, quiet sort of satisfac
tion like that which springs from a good
conscience, and a first-class digestion
such as wouldn’t stand in awe of a paper
of tacks for a thanksgiving dinner.
The majority of us can today do the
honors of the occasion over our turkey
and cranberries, of hog and hominy, or
crow and cayenne pepper, as the case
may be, with the serene satisfaction
that we have so far escaped the misfor
tune 'of belfig sent either to the lunatlo
asylum, the legislature or the poor house;
an«j so long as we can avoid tbeee cal
amities and keep up our credit with the
grocer and the tailor, why should we
worry ourselves because we were not
born klugsordukes?
There isn't any better day in the year
to reflect upon the profound truth of
the conclusion reachod by a medieval
dolver after the philosopher’s stone,
that tho touchstone that will turn the
base metals of mundane existence Into
the pure gold of unalloyed happiness, is
found In this aphorism put into prac
tice:
"You can have whatever you like, by
liking whatever you have.”
THE FIELD OP MAKS.
Affairs in Europe are assuming a criti
cal aspect, that is anything but reassur
ing to the advocates of paoiflo policies.
In France, Germany and Russia the
spirit of unrest and dissatisfaction
prevails; and the drum beat mustering
Coesoek and Frank to the great tourna
ment of nations may be at band. Rus
sia is perpetually showing her teeth and
unless she is check-mated by Germany
and Austria, who watch by with jeal
ous eyes, the dream ahe has so long
oberlshed of becoming mistress and ar
biter of nations msy yet eventuate.
Turkey, the sick man of Europe, has lost
the flower of her people; her treasury
is looted, her resources gutted, and she
a lands ready to bend her bead to receive
the galling yoke of Russia and tear down
the oreeoent from St. Sophia and raise
the Greek cross in its place. Any piece
of bungling diplomacy, of ill-advised
utterance may set Are to the train and
change tbe geography ef Europe.
It Is certainly significant that Russia
has half a million men on the Polish
frontier. Bnoh a mobilization of forces
means cheap winter quarters; contrast
ing vividly with tbe fact that a quarter
of Russia’s population Is in a state of
anaroby and turmoil through hunger.
The Russian peasant sees bis child and
wife perishing beneath the asperities of
a cheerless dime without food or shel
ter, and It is easy to explain the moral
of the red flag of anarchism, whose
folds wave in the shadow of 8k Peters
burg. The “Autocrat of all Rusalaa" is
shrewd enough and adroit enough
to foresee fearful consequences, not
to be averted unless he diverts bis peo
ple from brooding over their distress.
War is the toy he has chosen.
Money in Europe is hard to get, and
the financial situation is panloky. This
lu itself means radical changes In gov-
elemental systems that can only be
wrought with muskets and cannon.
English armaments .fret the seas, and
she Is fearful of Russian encroachment
of ber East Indian empire. Warren
Hastings may have been the architect of
aa immense empire for Russia—who
knows? Such is tbe irony of fate—the
flat of destiny.
Everything points to war—"the field
of Mars rushes red on .the sight,” and
the most staunch friend of the amity of
nations must read thejhandwriting on
the wall.
Money matters will enter largely into
the causative dements. Tbe bottom
fact that originates this feeling of uncer
tainty so fatal to tbe oonduet of pros
perous business is the consciousness
that a war is not far off. The general
Insecurity of securities- la ominous of
trouble. Want of confidence means that
the roar of artillery will soon be in
order. When money hesitatse or bides
It Is because tbe wind Is the wrong way,
and the horizon is flecked with clouds
angering the approaching of the storm.
Unless there is a change, from Alpha to
Omega, in the outlook the signs, of the
times bodes ao good for the continent
or those powers that become embroils^.
LORD LTTTON DEAD.
Rk Hon. Edward Robert Bulwer-Lyt-
ton, earl of Lytton, British ambassador
to France, died suddenly from heart dis
ease In Paris on Tuesday.
Tbe death of Lord Lytton Is a loss to
tbe civilization of the times. It Is unex
pected! and will shock and grieve tbe
world of scholars and lovers of the pure
literature of the age.
It it as Owen Meredith that Lord Lyt
ton is best known to tbe world; It is as
Owen Meredith that every school girl
and boy In Anglo-Saxon lands loves him
who sleeps the last sleep in the cspltal
of France.
To the many who believe in tbe purer
and more honest literature, the death of
Lord Lytton comes as a personal loss.
In tbe world of diplomacy it is an event
of unusual importance. Lord Lytton
was the British ambassador to France,
most desirable position in all tbe range
of diplomacy.
The engagen ent is announced of Miss
Fannie Bostick of New York, daughter
ofJabezH. Bostick of tba Standard Oil
Company, to Capk Albert J. Carstaira
of tbe Royal Irish Rifles, now stationed
at Malta. And when Carstalrs gets tbe
girl, along with a Standard Oil bank ac
count, the newspaper joker will say that
Carstalrs has climbed the golden stair of
matrimony.
Nobody knows exactly which would
be victor in a new war between Germany
and France, but whichever peoplo gets
to eating American corn-bread first will
win. There is no soldier like the man
who has been brought up on corn-bread.
