Harrisburg, March 1.—The past week
has been enlivened in a political way
by Senator Quay’'s activity in mending
his fences, or attempting to do so. The
outlook for independent action among
Republicans is so formidable
Quay’s anxiety about his re-election
to the United States senate is increas-
ing every day. Unless he can stem the
rising tide of opposition he will cer-
tainly be unable to succeed himself in
his present high office.
Quay has been running all over the
state during the past week. He was
in Philadelphia, then hurried away
and came here to Harrisburg, andleav-
ing here traveled as hard as he could
to Pittsburg. He has been
and in the spare moments of his time
has been devoting himself to attempts
patch un a truce with Secretary
Martin, Senator Magee and the other
anti-Quay leaders of the state. Quay
held two conferences with Senator Ma- |
gee in Pittsburg. He also saw to. it
that ample reports of his meeting with
Magee were given out in the daily pa-
pers of Pittsburg. He desired to eon-
vey the impression to the people of the
state that he and Magee were getting
onto friendly terms, and that Magee
| would make a deal with him.
QUAY HELPING SC£TONE.
It was also a part of Quay’s plans
to try and pull Magee into a support
| of W. A. Stone, Hon. Asparagus An-
drews’ slated candidate for governor
of Pennsylvania. But the Quay plans
were blocked in Pittsburg just as they
were thwarted in Philadelphia last
week when he tried to fix up a deal
with Secretary Martin. Magee indig-
nantly repudiated all of Quay’s flatter-

and Senator Magee.

If he i3 convinced of this in his own
mind there can be but one reply to the

remembered that this invitation to Mr.

tion is the care and delay that he has
evinced in making a final decision.

day. The most obedient Quay organ
of the Philadelphia Quay organs is the
Inquirer. The Inquirer has been es-
pecially noticeable for its support ‘of
Quay and every faction bearing the
Quay callar.. The Inquirer claims to be
| a Republican newspaper, but it edi-
torially bolted the regular Republican
ticket at the last city eclection. It has
attacked Secretary of State Martin so
long, and so bitterly, that many of its
former friends have deserted it and
gone over to Mr. Martin's assistance.
This is noticeably the case with State
Senator George Vare, Selectman Ed-
ward Patton, Clerk of Courts W. -B.
Ahern and half a dozen other leading
Republican workers in Philadelphia.
As it treated Mr. Martin, so has The
Inquirer set out to treat Hon. John
Wanamaker. Statements that efforts
were being made to pull Mr. Wana-
maker off the track by his own friends
have filled its columns, and it has
spared no effort to secure every piece
of news adverse to Mr. Wanamaker
! that was possible. The attitude of The
| Inquirer is undoubtedly one that it will
| regret from a party standpoint, be-
cause its own chickens will yet come
| home to roost. It has encouraged and
| endorsed bolts from regular conven-
tions, and it has bolted the regular
| ticket itself. In all of this it has been
following Senator Quay and his friends,
i and thz responsibility of their bolting
action must ultimately fell upor their
heads.

Needed a Quarter.
Kensington Keystone.
These nickle in the slot machines
have got to be a great thing. They do
anything but cure the baby of the colic.
| Down in Parnassus there is a family
| that has a gas meter into which you
| drop a quarter. Every quarter drop-
ped in allows a certain humber-of feet
| of gas to pass throtigh. It is a great
invention and they are never troubled
about their gas bill. They always know
{ just. what their relations are to the me-
| ter and through it to the gas company.
| One night last week there was sickness
| in the family and the doctor was called
in. While he was ministering to the
| sufferer the gas. went out all over the
i house. The meter wanted its pay. “I'll
| just run down and drop a quarter into
Lit,” said the father of the family. He
made a dive for the cellar. A few sec-
{onds later he came up. He had a whole
handful of money. There were nick-
| els, dimes, half-dollars,
| number of bills. But the meter won’t
| take anything but quarters. The doc-
| tor didn’t have n quarter. An examin-
| ation of his pockets by match light de-
| veloped this. The servant girl had
three nickels and a dime. That made
25 cents, but the meter accepts nothing
but silver quarters. The nurse had
two dimes and a nickel. That would
i not go. The children’s banks were full
| of small coin, but there wasn’t a quar-
| ter in the lot. It was after midnight,
; but the man of the house had to go out
and hunt a quarter. He aroused sev-
{eral of his neighbors. They all had
money to burn, but none of them own-
| ed a quarter. The eighth man had just
25 cents, but it was in the form of a sil-
ver quarter, It was gladly taken and
| a few minutes later the meter was met-
ing again in a manner to make up for
lost time. Now four silver quarters
| are always kept in stock in that house |
While he has can- |
and they say they never will run out
| again.

Th: Riddle of Things That Are.
BY WILLIAM ITAMILTON HAYNE.
We walk in a world where no man reads
The riddle of things that are—
From the tiny fern in the valley’s heart
To the light of the largest star—
Yet we know that the pressure of Life is
hard
And the silence of Death is deep,
As we fall and rise on the tangled way
That leads to the gate of Sleep.
We know that the problems of Sin and Pain,
And the passions that lead to crime,
Are the mysteries locked from age to age
In the awful vault of Time—
Yet we lift our weary feet and strive
Through the mire and mist to grope
Aud find a ledge on the mount of Faith
In the morning land of Hope.
