Imperial commanding? Did the
Congress of the United States com
mand Spain and did Spain obey. An
ti imperial against commanding.
The British troops are about 77
miles from Pretoria tbe Capital of
Boerland. The Boers must soon
strike a strong blow for themselves
or their cause will be lost.
j. he men wno are against fxpan
ion were among the foremost Span
ish war sb outers. If they were right
then they are wrong now. All that
they complain of came through the
war they advocated.
The State Supreme Court has set
asid9 Governor Stone's veto of the
proposed amendments to tbe State
constitution ballot reform. The
conrt says the question shall be sub
mitted to vote of the people at tb.9
election in November ,1900.
Democratic leaders are bard-pushed
for an issue on which to run the
coming campaign. The silver issue
for the present is not to tho front
The tariff icsue was proven a mistake
by tbe failure of Cleveland to man
age the government under a low tar
in. So tnen. tbe leaders will raise
the cry against the occupancy of the
Phillipine islands. They will sbout
against expansion unless they can
find some other issue that will suit
their purpose better. They are
hard up for an issue.
The administration has been un
fortunate in its appointment of some
officers for Cuba, if reports from that
island be true. A number of the ap
pointees have been profligate in toe
expenditure of government appro
priation for Cuban affairs. The prof
ligacy seems to be as now under
stood in the construction of a six
mile long railroad. An investigation
will follow. Without excusing tbe
appointees in Cuba for their profli
gacy, it is not necessary to go to Cu
ba to find profligate expenditure of
money in the organization of rail
roads and their management.
The U. S Supreme Court bas de
cided the Kentucky Governorship
question which was carried up to the
Court in favor of Air. Beckham, who
is Goebel'a successor. The people
had elected Taylor by s large major
ity, but by a state law the .'question
of election can be carried into the
Legislature for review and revision.
The Legislature was democratic and
revised tbe vote, ruled out Taylor
and was preparing to inaugurate
Goebel when be was shot. Mr. Beck
ham became tbe successor of GoebeL
The contest was carried up to the
Supreme court to decide whether the
act of Legislature making Beckham
Governor is the Supreme law of the
state. J. be court says it is and eok
ham ill be inaugurated. The Tay
lor men will have to grin and bear
atd carry their grievance into tbe
next election and correct their griev
ance by a majority vote of tbe peo
pie.
The eclipse of t!ie Sun last Monday
was grand and awe inspiring It is
little wonder that to the unlearned
such a spectacle is terrifving. To
those who knetv of its coming and
know that it is caused by tbe moon
coming between tbe earth and sun it
was startling. Is appearance start
led them into a realization of how
much man has learned of such thing.
How he bas learned that the eclipse
is only tbe shadow of the moon. It
startled them to know that they had
learned the path of the moon to such
a degree that they can count to the
minute where it if, just as railroad
men know where their trains are to
the time of a minute It startled
tbem to realize how little tbey know
of tbe source of the power that moves
such ponderous machinery in space.
What power to move tbe floating
globes in space and bold each one
firmly in its track that their is not
the variation of a second of time in
their movement- How much man
has learned? How much there is yet
to learn. Men felt the coolness of
tbe shadow of the moon, but what is
the cold of the shadow? What's tbe
death of the darkness? and what's the
warm and life of the sun? and whence
the power all comes from. The
eclipse made man feel his own abili.
ty as a discoverer and made him feel
his ignorance of first principles and
causes.
Admiral Dewey is reported to
hare said, "Bryan is certain to re
ceive the nomination of the democ
racy for the Presidency." Bryan
will have something to talk about
that he did not have the first time
he ran for the Presidency, and that
is the result of the Spanish war.
When he ran for the Presidency in
1896 such a thing as war with
Spain was not thought of. Since
Bryan's defeat a .war with Spain
has been picked and fought and
pain has been whipped, and her
large island possessions have be
come the property of the United
States. It appears now as if the
Democratic party intends to try
and make an issue against the
United States holding the trophies
of the Spanish war. If the leaders
of the democracy had spoken at
the right time before war was maie
on Spain, it would have been of
some account, but to help shout for
war and then denounce its results
well reader you know how it looks.

Llsh Billings. Abner Jones and
Moses Plumber bev bin holdln Jericho
back fur the last two yean from hevta
a new achoolbense. The matter baa
come up almost every evenln at tbe
postofflce and bin hotly argued, but
they couldn't be budged. Tbe other
night a mighty smart look. In stranger
was stoppln In town, and It was ar
ranged that he drop In on the crowd
and take the achoolbouse side and put
the three obstructors on their backs.
Tbe stranger was on band at the hour
named, and when the proper mlnit ar
rived Squar Joslyn speaks up and
says: . x
"Stranger, If-you was a resident of
this town, would you be fur school
houses or ag'ln 'em 7'

the man. "I'd vote for the cause of

"They must be queer sort of men.
lkm't they want their children to kuow
who discovered America r"
'That's a mighty strong pint, mighty
strong" says Deacon Sumner, n be
tunks his cane on the floor and looks at
Aimer Jones.
'I reckon you're liittin at me." re
plies Abner after wbittlin away for a
moment, "and I've got a few words
to say. I'd like to ask this stranger
here if he knows who discovered
America."
Why, certainly, sir," said the man.
"lias It ever done yen any good? lias (
it ever made any difference to you t
whether it was Smith, Creeii or I
Brown?"
But It is knowledge."
Yes, It's knowledge, and tliat's a
strong pint" whispers the deacon.
Yes. It's sclioolhotise knowledge."
says Abner, "but let me ask you sun
thin. What month in the year d'you
plant pumpkin seeds?"
Pumpkin seeds! Why, what have
pumpkin seeds got to do with educa
tion?" "Quite a little bit I reckon. This
county ships 'null pumpkins every
year to make 3.000,000 10 cent pies. I
don't believe ten fanners kin tell you
wben America was discovered, but
they know when to plant pumpkins.
Which is the best fur "em? I reckon
you kin tell what year Ccorge Vas!i:
ington died in, which I can't, but d'you
know wliar to fasten a rope when you
want to drive a bog to market?"
By jliuTo. but that's a strong pint.
and Abuer's got him!" shouts the dea
con as be jumps tip and down.
The stranger appealed to be sort of
confused aud taken down, but tried to
git out of it l y sayln they were
triflin with the subject.
"I'm one as isn't cpv-jyed to schools
and education." cays Moses Plumber,
"but I don't want too many of 'em.
I'm sayin that everybody orter know
how to read.- write and cipher, but
nowadays tliey want to stuff children
with a heap that's no good to any
body." "But what man kin know too much?"
asks the stranger. "But fur higher
knowledge how would we know that
the earth revolved on its axis?"
"But s'pose we didn't know? S'pose
we Sggered that the earth stood still?
Wouldn't we have licked the British

ably bopfn to find a new oue. He could
tell when every state come iuto the
Union, but he didn't know that a cow
kicked sideways Instead of straight
behind."
"By jingo, Moses, but that's oratory .
and a strong pint besides!" exclaims
the deacon. "In the face of them facts
I can't see how we are to git auother
schoolbouse."
"You have been ill at some time or I
other in your life?" queries the stran- DUt a few minutes to a private Individ
ger of Moses. nal it might be saved.
"I hev. Three years ago I was down
with fever and everybody thought I'd
die."
"But you were saved, and how? If
the doctor who was called in had sim
ply known about fence rails, bogs
tails and the way cows kick, where
would you be today? lie had gone
beyond readin, wrltln and figurin.
It was his higher education that saved
your life."
"That's a strong pint ag'ln you,
Moses," says the deacon.
"Yes, but I didn't call a doctor," grins
Moses. "My old woman pulled me
through with herb teas and good nurs
ln, and you all know she can't figger
the value of two dozen eggs."
Then the pint is on the stranger,
and I'd like to see him dodge it."
"The stranger was stubbin his toe
ag'in stones in the road and didn't look
happy, but he braced up and said In
answer:
"Let us take a case right here at
home. Here is a store. It bad to be
designed by an architect before the
carpenter could build It. Mr. Plumber
kin read, write and figger, but kin he
draw tbe plans fur a buildln? But
fur higher education no man could do '
It." i
"Tea; It was a smart bit of work," .
acknowledged Moses, "but I had con- j
slderable to say to that architect. He
had never heard that thunder would '

their pints, and now we'd like to bear
from Llsh Billings."
"I've got mighty little to say," re
plies I.ish as be sits with bis back
humped up like a camel.
"But It can't be that an Intelligent
man like you Is opposed to education?"
protests the stranger. ...
"That's accordln to what sort of edu

"I refer to general education. Ton
look like a man of peace, but perhaps
you have liad trouble with a neighbor
some time?"
"Yes. I bad trouble with 8am Wheel

"And you went to law?"
"Yes."
"To eo to law you had a lawyer.' If
Mint man had only known enough to

"I skassly do," say9 Llsh.
"Hut you bad a lawyer, and so did
Mr. Wheeler. There was a suit anil

"That's a pint fur the stranger,

Many a refusal to sit for a picture

It remains for the Devonshire folk,

the Incident
The looks of Devonshire and Cornish
lassies are proverbial. A complexion of
peaches and cream, a well proportioned
body and well molded features are tbe
characteristics. West country women,
as they are called, cannot forget they
were once comely.
A woman of 73 years was brought
forward to be photographed by an am

was completed. Then she put her fin

Batter? Placa.
Battery place is the traditional spot
where, on May C 1C2C, the Indian own
ers of Manhattan bartered it to tbe
Dutch for baubles worth 00 guilders.
As early as 1093, there being a war
with the French, "a platform upon tbe
outmost point of rocks under the fort"
was designated as a suitable place for
a battery, and the council was called
upon by Governor Fletcher to furnish
"80 cords of stockades, 12 feet in
length, for the purpose of building
same."
In 1735 a really .Imposing battery,
with a no less imposing title, "The
George Augustus Royal battery," was
erected by Governor Cosby, and "The
Battery" bas remained on our city map
ever since, associated though it has
been with the pleasures of peace to a
much greater extent than with the art
or the practice of warfare. New York

ORIGIN OF "SETTIKG THE
RIVER OM FIRE."
In old English Hoops, wben each
family was obliged to sift its own
floor, it f oaietimes happened that an
energetic man would turn bis sieve
bo rapidly as to cause it to catch fire.
The e-tjle of sieve used used in those
days was called a "temnse,' and it
became a cubtomary saying thnt a la
zy man wou'd never set tho trmseon
fire. Now it Lappets that the name
of the river Thames is pronounced
like the name f tLis old flour sieve.
and after maDy years, when tbe old
fashioned temee was forgot top, it
was thought that retting the teniae
on fire meant setting tbe river on fire,
and that is why to dtvy we say that a
stupid person will never set the river
on fire. June Ladies' Home Journal.
