In a recent editorial the Cleveland Leader utters some, sensible views on the subject of inducing working people to leave this country for foreign lauds to obtain homes and employment. The Leader says: "A dispatch from Chihuahua, Mexico, ways that the Americans who a few years ago established a cooperative colony on the western coast of Mexico t nre now in a destitute condition and are seeking meaus of transportation ■back to the United States. A few days fcince part of a band of colonists who !went to Brazil several months ago to establish homes for themselves arrived in New York without money and thor oughly disgusted with their experi ence. They reported that it had been impossible for them to do more than maintain existence in the South Amer ican republic. From time to time al luring inducements are held out to the working people of the United States to go to Mexico or Central or South Amer ica and establish colonies. In every in stance a rosy picture is painted of the conditions existing in those countries, and it is made to appear that life is so much easier there than here as to make a colonial existence a paradise in com parison with the lot of the poor here. Invariably, we believe, these colonial enterprises have proved failures, but none has been more conspicuous in that respect than the Mexican colony at Topolobampo. The conditions of life may be hard from time to time in the United States, but as a whole the peo ple of this country are better off than -those of any other, and there is no place in the world where the people have so much to eat and wear and are so well housed as in this great republic." This is a great country, with all sorts of climates. At Memphis, Tenn., one morning recently, the thermometer registered 89 degrees in the sliade. By noon tho mercury had climbed to 99, nnd by two o'clock in tho afternoon to 104. Several boys were arrested for Fwimming in Wolf river. Several cases of sunstroke were reported. The Mem phis Commercial Appeal, which sup plies this surprising information, sup plements it as follows: "There is no im mediate prospect of cooler weather, and ■to add to our vexations the flies and mosquitoes were never worse, and the turkey gnats are simply horrible. But for the outdoor concerts, the river ex cursions and the open cars life would hardly be worth living. The signal ser vice office is authority for the statement that no such weather has ever been seen in Memphis. Oh, for a breath of fresh air!" A singular incident occurred in the Christian church at Georgetown, Kj., a few dnys ago. Just after the com munion service a strange woman arose in the audience and, in a tone of deep solemnity, said: "I am a stranger to you, but not to the Christian denom ination, having been a member of that church for years." Pointing to the wine on the table, she continued: "The wine you have there is not the emblem of the blood of Christ, but is an instru ment of the devil and the saloon. 1 have known many j*oiing men to die in drunkard's graves whose first taste of wine was in the church. You ought to use the juice of raisins." Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria. WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington, April 5, 1807. A majority of tho executive committee of tho Indianapolis monetary conven tion, more generally known as tho Hankers 4 convention, are in Washington trying to talk senators and representa tives into supporting a bill providing for a monetary commission. The members of tho committee profess to be jubilant over the bill's outlook, but senators and representatives appear to be entire ly indifTerent to the subject. Rcprescn- ! tative Heatwole, of Minnesota offered a resolution last week for the creation of such a commission, but there is nothing in sight to indicate that it will be acted upon, notwithstanding the im- j plied support Mr. McKinloy gave the scheme just after the Indianapolis con vention. There is some very lively kicking among the newcomers at the working of 1 Mr. McKinley's rule against reappoint ing men who held office under Harrison. When this rule was first announced the newcomers were delighted, but tl e look at it differently now, when they see tho case with which the members of the "ex" brigade are quietly gathering up the good things. The reappointment of Mr. Palmer to be public printer was received with wry face 9 by the new comers, but when Mr. Palmer took charge of the government printing office and reappointed W. 11. Collins chief clerk and 11. P. Brian foreman, words were uttured that cannot be printed in a family newspaper. They are telling a little story about Czar Reed at the expense of a number of senators. According to the story, tho Czar just before tlie meeting of tho extra session, attended a dinner party where the guests wore nearly all sena tors, some of whom where expressing direful forebodings about what would j happen to senatorial dignity when "Hil ly" Mason, with his free and easy manners, entered that body. The czar tired out of that sort of thing, and turn ing to the senators asked in thatexaspcr ating drawl which lie doesn't drop Into J so often in the house as lie used to, "Do you think Mason will stay in the senate long enough to become as dull as the rest of you?" The tariff bill has been in the hands of the senate finance committee long enough to make it certain that it is going to be cut and slashed very much by that committee, not to mention what will be done to it after it gets reported to the senate. Republican senators are very free in saying that the bill is not what it ought to be. That, of course, Is not a sure sign that it will be bettered in the senato, merely a sign that it will be very much changed. The clause making the duties imposed b. th • hill when it be comes a law collectable on all importa- , tions ordered after April l, is generally | regarded as merely a farcical scarecrow, set up to frighten timid importers. The selection of ex-Representative Benjamin Butterworth, of Ohio, to b • commissioner of patents, a place lie fill ed once before to the satisfaction of all those having dealings with the office, can scarcely be considered political, as Mr. Butterworth has expressed opinions upon the tariff and silver question that were a long ways from being in accord with those held by Mr. McKinloy and the men who are dominating his adminis tration and the It p iblican party at this time. Mr. Butterworth's appointment can be credited to the friendship of Mr. McKinley for him, and to his eminent titness for the place. Senator Jones, of Arkansas, chairman of the Democratic national committee, has issued an address indorsing the ap peal made by President Black, of the National Association of Democratic Clubs, for a celebration of the 154 th anniversary of the birthday of Thomas Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of Independence and the founder of tin? American Democracy, on the thirteenth day of this month by all Democratic organizations. It now looks as though Speaker Reed really intended to carry out the programme of only having the house meet twice a week—on Wednesdays and Saturdays—and adjourn. It may be that lie can keep this filing up during the two or three months that the senate will take to pass the tariff bill, but many are predicting that he will have to give the house a chance to do some thing or it will do something in spite of him. The office-seekers have proven to be too much for Mr. McKinley and the official announcement is made that he will this week run away from them by taking a little trip for two or three days for rest. Not much surprise was caused by the announcement that ex-Secretary Carlisle had imcn retained to look after the legal interests in the South of the J. Pierpont Morgan establishment. S. "If would appear," says an exchange, "to be the policy of the; Republican party to attack tho schools both in front and rear at the same time. Mr. Pingley j proposed to hit the colleges and unlver ! si ties by Imposing a tax on imports of books and philosophical appartus; and | the Pennsylvania legislature has voted down a proposition to extend the term of teaching the primary schools from six months to seven each year. There may i be a deeper political purpose than is j apparent to casual observation in this attempt to curtail the spread of en , lighteninont." | Old newspapers for sale.

Prof. Ilomolle thinks that the cop per statue recently exhumed by French scholars at Delphi representes Hiero, tyrant of Syracuse, and was probably made by Onatas, the teacher of Phidias; in which case the value of the statue would be equal to that of the Hermes of Praxiteles. An important find of skeletons of pre historic people, supposed to he cliff dwellers, was made receutly on Beaver creek, Yavapai county, Ariz. The skele tons were laid out in orderly arrange ment on natural shelves in the chalk like cliffs bordering the creek. There were about 40 skeletons in all, and each was laid on a piece of matting.

Some Are Beautifully Painted and Most of Them Very Costly. The most expressive little accessory of a woman's dress is her fan, if she but understands the art of using- it. French fans are the most attractive and daibty in design. Size is the important point in the fashion of fans just at pres ent, since they must be very small, and if we g-o back to the time of our great grand mothers and resurrect their tiny fans, we will have the proper size for use to-day. The Empire and Louis Quinze fans are the popular shapes. The sticks are of mother-of-pearl, ivory, tortoise shell, ebony, and violet wood, beautifully enameled and inlaid with gold. Black mother-of-pearl is a novelty Hi is sea son, and the ornamentation of gold shows off with good effect 011 the dark background. Despite the small size, these funs display the most perfect specimens of fine painting in Watteau figures, birds and flowers, and the very prettiest mounts are transparent with various designs in silk introduced at the COSTLY BUT BEAUTIFUL, top like the one illustrated. The sticks are in black pearl, and the mousseline de soie is black, with black silk at the edge exquisitely painted with cupids and figures in Louis XVI. costumes. Paillettes are over the sticks and all. Fans of white mousseline with fine Brussels lace on the edge and tortoise shell sticks are the daintiest lit tle trifles imaginable. Medallions of silk set in point lace and painted with mythological figures and finished with mother-of-pearl sticks are the modern reproduction of the Louis XV. fan, but in the old days these fans were of parch ment or fine leather. Large sums of money can be invested in this little article of dress, and some of the later imitations of this old style cost from SSO to SI,OOO, according to the fineness of the workmanship. A fan of green silk painted with violets, with violet wood sticks stained green, is a charming little novelty. Much less ex pensive are the Chinese fans of fine crepe painted with flowers.—N. Y. Sun. With a Head of Lettuce. Chop up a large head of lettuce and slew it with a lump of butter, a pinch of sugar, und 30 drops of Tarragon vin egar. Keep stirring and do not let it burn. Add a teaspoouful of flour, pep per and salt, break in an egg, whicli stir well. Then pour ou some weak broth, allowing two gills per person. If you have not the broth water will do. Lay dice of stale bread in the tureen, add a gill of areatn to the pot age just before you pour the boiling soup over the bread. Serve. The Latent Shade of Bed. The new shade of Russian red ap pears in velvet, cloth and silk and wool fabrics. It is a beautiful dye, between that of a Jaque rose and a deep dahlia color. It is exceedingly becoming to women, both fair and dark, and one af the very best shades that the neutral toned type could possibly select. The color is so deep that it is not at all con spicuous.
