BOSSES HAVE LEARNED LESSON fair Fieid and No Favors Accorded to All—Thompson of Fayette Seems to Meet requirements of Situation Best —la Close to the People. Pittsburg, May 30. —The political discord which has prevailed in almost every suction of Pennsylvania during the past yoar or more has forced the Republican leaders of the stale to "stop, look and listen,'' and it is now apparent that further confusion in tha party's affairs is to be avoided by the people coming wholly and entirely into their own. With the Republican state convention but a week away it is most pleasing to the voters to realize that no siate has been made for the coming convention and that no slate is likely to be made which does not come direct from the people. The party lash has gone out of fashion and the voice of the political bos 3 is no longer heard The right to slate or name candidates for public places, al ways inherent in the people, is now being recognized more than in years and the belief is general that at tha coming convention of the Republicans of the state the voice of the people will be beard in no uncertain way and that the candidates for governor and other state places will be chosen at the Harrisburg convention next week by the duly elected delegates to that important gathering. The bosses of former days have wisely deter mined to stand aside in the interest of party harmony and graciously yield to the nomination of a state ticket which will restore harmony to the grand old party and which will pro mote the success of that party which in the past has made substantially for .he advancement of every material interest in this state and tlm nation. To the people it must be pleasing to realize that just now when party harmony most needs consideration the Republicans of the state are turn ing with hope and confidence to Josialt Van Kirk Thompson, the bani-.sr, phil anthropist and advance agent of pros perity. ■TOSIAH VAN' KIRK THOMPSON. Mr. Thompson is one of tho most conspicuous figures in Pennsylvania. Me comes from the plain people and he has always been with them and for them. He has been eminently suc cessful in his own affairs and detests and hates dishonor and discredit. By his own individual efforts he chiseled out of the rock of opposition a com m:indin<4 p -ice in public affairs, yet he is as mo lest as a woman. He en joys the polish of a collegiate, has keen business sense and is broad gauge I and wonderfully capable. He is educated and i the firm friend of education He was graduated from Washington and Jefferson college an:! that great institution has shared lib orally iu the brilliant success of his life. Mr. Thompson has brought to hundreds of hU business associates substantial means and those who know him best appreciate him most for his plain honesty and his dispo sition to piay absolutely fairly with everybody His hand, made powerful by his owu industry, has never been extended to oppress. "Joe" 1 Thomp son, as he is known by his neighbors of all political faiths, is beyond ques tion closer to the people than any other prominent Republican in Penn sylvania and those about him, great »r mean, have found him always help ful. He is just as rich morally and physically as he is financially and among the Republicans generally he is looked upon as the man of the hour. He is as bit; as the office he seeks and no combination of political place hunt- IT§ could be formed which would dls rradlt u single one of his sterilnK qual ities Hi* fits into the geueral de mand for reform In the affairs of rhe state.

Whoie Key Unlocked tlic Drawer 112 Here Is a true story told by a doctor. This doctor had a patient, a brother physician, who was ill of a disease no one has ever cured yet. The sick man realized that his case was hopeless, and he knew, too, that before he died he would go through horrible couvul alons. lie begged his friend to kill him in order to spare his wife the sight of anything so unforgettably hid eous, and the physician, bound by his code of ethics, refused. The sick man begged his wife to let him have his re volver, but she refused. The physi cian locked the drawer of the bureau in which it lay and gave the wife the key. Two days later the sick mau shot himself, and tlie revolver he used was his own. He had unlocked the drawer. "We found the key iu it," said the doctor. "It was not the one I had given to the wife. I look it, and when I had a chance I went quietly into the room occupied by the man's mother. The key exactly fitted the lock of her bureau. That's all 1 know, except that j the mother came out of the house with her bonnet and cloak on two minutes before her son shot himself."—Wash j lngton Post. Hall' Deuf People. "If you are deaf in one ear," said the boilermaker, "I don't care about giv ing you a Job." "Why?" asked the applicant. "Because you can't tell what direc tion sounds come from; hence in a place like this you would be in great danger." "How do you know I can't tell what direction sounds come from?" the ap plicant demanded. "No person deaf In one ear," replied the boilermaker, "can do so. A man deaf in one ear will look behind him if a gun goes off on his right. lie will look up in the air if a child shrieks at his feet. lie will look wildly in front of him if a locomotive whistles in his rear. A boiler shop is 110 place for J such a man." "I knew 1 was like this," said the applicant, "but 1 didn't know all half deaf people were." "They all are." said the boilermaker. j "and my shop is 110 place for them."— ' Philadelphia Bulletin. All n Mutter of l)oul>t Anyway. A young man from the south who a few years ago was so fortunate as to lie enabled to enter the law ollices of ■ a well known New York firm was tirst | intrusted with a very simple case. He was asked by the late James C. Tarter, -then a member of the firm, to give an opinion In writing. When this was submitted it was observed by Mr. Car ter that, with tiie touching confidence of a neophyte, the young southerner had begun with the expression, '"I am clearly of opinion." When this caught his eye In* smiled and said: "My dear young friend, never state that you are clearly of opinion on a law point.

The bell used to insure silence at Lloyd's, in London, when the arrival of an overdue vessel is announced to the anxious underwriters is of naval origin. It belonged to the Lutine, which was wrecked near the Zuyder Zee toward the end of the eighteenth century, when England was at war with Holland. As it was customary in those days to send bullion and specie by men-of-war, the Lutine carried a valuable consignment of specie, and the underwriters at Lloyd's were able to arrange with the Dutch government to salve the cargo and recoup themselves for their loss on insurance. Over £50,000" was recover ed. and among other relics brought to shore was the Lutine's bell, to ring out good cheer for anxious underwriters who hear the safe arrival proclaimed by Lloyd's crier as silence follows the ringing of the bell.
