QUAY AT HAHRISBURG The Same Old Story to be Repeated In 1902. UudOt the heading "Mr. Quay at IlairlatTurg," the Philadelphia Ledger on June E. 1898, contained an able editorial which, with the change of half a dozen words, would be as apt and as true today as It was four years ago. Then Quay wanted to own a governor, one he might use to give the people a model administration. He is the same hypocritical, corrupt manipu lator that ho was then, with four years more of political debauchery credited to his disgraceful account. Following is the Ledger editorial: • "Matthew Stanley Quay arrived In Harrishurg on Tuesday night, and is now issuing orders for the conduct of the Republican State Convention from his headquarters at one of the hotels at the state capital. Mr. Quay is a United States senator, and has de serted his post in the senate at a time when the country is engaged in the most Important business which has en listed its attention since the close of the Rebellion, to resume at Harrishurg the more congenial and for him the more befitting occupation of the arch political boss of the country, In order to servo his own ends and to perpetu ate a political rule which is rapidly he coming little less than Machiavellian in Its sinister tendencies and results. Whether Mr. Quay's candidate for gov ernor of Pennsylvania be W. A. Stone or any other subservient follower, Mr. Quay's Intrigues at Harrishurg this week Will he those of the selfish spoils man, and all his art and cunning will he exerted to further his own interests and to secure the succession to the office of United States senator from Pennsylvania, an exalted position, to which he has added no lustre of states manship, and to which he can bring no respect and no dignity, and in which he can represent nothing hut decadent politics and a legislature which, through the blight of Quayism, will mark how high the tide of legislative Incompetency and groveling vassalage to unworthy leadership rose at the close of the century. "Mr. Quay's senatorial seat at Wash ington, though his desertion from duty there violates flagrantly his official obligations, in another view of the case, has been appropriately vacated by him. His absence from the senate chamber will not be noted. If present his contributions to the solution of the grave problems that vex the country would be insignificant and incon sequential. As a constructive states man ho has been a monumental fail ure. That he should be permitted to represent Pennsylvania anywhere, in any capacity, is a pitiful commentary upon the intelligence and judgment of the community. The rise of Quay, his long rule as a party autocrat, and the apparent Inability of the Republican party hitherto to cast him off. suggest a serious reflection upon our political institutions. The perpetuation of the Insolent and corrupting regime which stifles all political independence and subordinates the principles, doctrines and alms of a great party to the au tocratic will, to the caprice and to the selfish purposes of Matthew Stanley Quay should he impossible in an in telligent and self-respecting commun ity. "A cynical philosopher challenged the political proverb that the people are always right, hut admitted that they would become so when fully in formed and enlightened us to their true interests. Revolt against discredited and debasing party leadership some times conies without much premoni tion. The remarkable series of in forming addresses delivered by Mr. Wanainaker have revealed to the peo ple of Pennsylvania political condi tions involving the honor of the Re publican party, which ought to make it exceedingly difficult for any self respecting delegate at today's Repub lican convention to foist upon the party any candidate for governor, or for any other state office, who is the representative of Quayism. That po litical trademark spells infamy, and it should mean inevitable defeat." CASTOIIIA. Dears the 111,1 Kind Vuu Have Always Bought POVERTY AT THE BAR. Cases In New York Which Give Pros perity and Charity Elaek Eyes. Moved to pity by the plight of Jules I.e Cultre, who pleaded guilty to petit larceny before Judge Newburger in general sessions, spectators, court at tendants and judge took up a collec tion and handed the weeping offender I.e Cultre stole a pocketbook con taining $2 from Nora Hopkins and when arrested was nearly dead from starvation. He had not tasted food for several days. After he had plend ed guilty Judge Newburger notified several aid and missionary societies of the man's condition, but not a single representative appeared in court when he was arraigned for sentence. Judge Newburger suspended sen tence und said: "There are circumstances in this case which are out of the usual run, and you were forced to steal by dire necessity aud want 1 notified aid so cieties and missionaries whom 1 be lieved would take up your case and help you. No one lias appeared. "These people are never around to help u man when in actual want. They usually appear In cases where the prisoner has retained expensive coun sel. You are certainly entitled to pity, and for this rensou I suspend sentence and hope that with a fair start you will get along." Le Cultre broke down at the unex pected exhibition of mercy, and when he left the courtroom n free man with $25 In his hand he said the world seem ed brighter than in many a weary day. Because their employment was hon est and the best that they could get, though lowly, Magistrate Flamnter dis charged eleven sandwich men when they were arraigned in Center street police court. Detective Keeley of the Old Slip po lice station was sent out by Captain Creamer to clear lower Broadway of the slow pacing, sometimes obstruc tive, sandwich men. Former City Jns tice Jerolomnn bad complained to po lice headquarters that the advertise ment carriers at limes blocked lower Broadway. Inspector Cross told Cap tain Creamer the nuisance must be abated. Detective Keeley accordingly locked up eleven sign carriers. The prisoners were a sorry looking lot aud impressed Magistrate Flammcr as more deserv ing of kindness than punishment. "Their employment Is honest, though lowly," he said, "and I am sorry to see them brought here as prisoners. Their lot Is a hard one us it Is. I don't doubt that carrying sandwich boards is the best they can do to earn a livelihood." "Yes, judge," said Keeley, "they have n hard enough time of It, aud 1 would not trouble them except that orders are orders. I don't like the job of arrest ing them." "I'm an old soldier, your honor," put in one of the prisoners, who said ho was Albert Remsen. "1 served In the ranks for my country, aud my health's gone these twenty years. I can only carry the banner a few days a week to get enough to live on. I don't want to go to the poorbouse." "You certainly are entitled to your freedom if you can support yourself without imposing too much upon oth ers," said Magistrate Flammer. All of the prisoners told tales of want and of a grinding, hand to mouth exist ence. Diederlch I'lemp, one of the eleven, said that his failing eyesight had barred him from other employ ment and condemned him to be a sand wich man.—New York Journal. Garden Plots For the Poor. The Philadelphia Vacant Lot Culti vation association for the relief of the unemployed is making preparations for an active season among the poor. Last year, under the direction of Superin tendent It. F. Powell, over 000 acres of unoccupied laud within the city limits were planted and tended by recipients of this charity and good crops of vege tables gathered by them. About 300 families were thus benefited by em ployment given their members, with profitable returns for their labors in food. Only the quick growing and most nutritious vegetables were raised In these gardens, such as beans, potatoes, tomatoes, radishes, cabbages and beets. The seeds are given free by the asso ciation and a little plot of ground al lotted to each worthy applicant for the association's aid. As an agreement is required by the management that the garden must be properly tended by the applicant or given up for some one else close attention to weeds is generally, paid by the truck raiser, and in most cases success crowns his or her efforts at farming.—Philadelphia Times. To Protest Against Injunctions. The executive council of the Ameri can Federation of Labor has issued an address to organized labor containing the following suggestions: "Wo recommend to all organized workers In national, state, central or local unions that at their publie cele brations on May 1. July 4 and Sept. 1 (Labor day), 1002, they concentrate their attention to a discussion of the abolition of the injunctions in labor disputes and the passage of resolutions demanding at the bunds of congress nml the legislatures of their respective states the enactment of laws conform ing to that purpose. "It is urged, too, that ut the conven tions of the national unions, the state federations, as well us at stated meet ings of the Central Labor unions -and local trade and federal unions, this subject matter be fully discussed, em phatic action taken thereon and the result of that action promptly com municated to the United States sena tors and members of congress from your respective states and to the mem bers of the legislature of your respec tive districts."

Contrary to popular belief, bananas do nut grow on the tree as tbey bang in the grocery, but wltb tlie small end of the fruit pointing upward—to all ap pearances upside down. There is probably no otber fruit of such universal* consumption about which so little is known to the average person as the banana. Something like 100,000,000 bunches are annually eaten in this country alone, but scarcely one man in a thousand not connected with the business knows what a banana tree looks like. The fruit is never allowed to ripen 011 the tree, but is cut half or three-quar ters "full" that is, half to three-quar ters developed—according to the dis tance it is to be shipped, and comes to maturity by feeding from the stalk, which contains a large amount of sap. Bananas cut In this way attain prac tically the same size as if allowed to remain 011 the tree, in which case the bunch becomes too much of a burden for its support and either falls or breaks the tree and ripens on the ground. After the cutting the plantation is "cleaned," which merely consists of severing the standing trunks within u few feet of the ground, and a new tret* comes forth from the remains of its predecessor, so that the fruit in all stages of growth is to be found at the same time and the yield is continuous. An Anecdote of Wordsworth. A contributor to the London Specta tor thus writes to that journal: Your interesting article 011 "Vost noss and Isolation" recalls to my mind Wordsworth's own Interpretation of the lines— Those obstinate questionings Of sense anil outward things, Fallings from us, vunishings— as reported to me by the late Professor Bonamy Price. One day as be was walking with tlie poet in the bills be asked him what be meant precisely by the words "fallings from us, vanish lugs." Wordsworth's answer was to this effect: "Sometimes I find myself in a mood in which the whole material universe seems to fall away. The sense of outward things is lost. Nothing re mains but an immaterial self, detach ed from all physical conditions. In or der to get back Into the known world of consciousness I have to clutch at something—so." llere ho grasped the bar of tlie gate on which they were leaning at the moment. I was much struck by the story at the time and made a note of it. The Appreciative Pantry Cook. There was a New York writer who, being something of an epicure, found keen enjoyment in the light and tooth some pastry provided for the patrons of a certain French restaurant. One day ho tossed off a sonnet to the coneocter of this pastry and bade the waiter cany it to the cook with his compliments. The next day he was served with a pie of unusual size, orna mented with pastry roses, and was told Unit it was an offering from the cook, who had been moved almost to the point of tears by his verse. As the poet cut this alluring pie he was amazed to see reposing Inside it the slip of blue paper which bore his lines. The waiter, watching anxiously, saw a shade pass over his face and at once stepped forward. "1 don't care to eat my own words," said tlu? port sharply, but his pun was lust nn the waiter. * Ze cook said, monsieur," he ventur ed humbly "ze cook said, 'Monsieur makes his so beautiful verse on my pastry. I make my so beautiful pastry on his verse.' Kt s it not so. monsieur?" •\\ion>inir" looked once more at the pie. and his dignity melted. "It is so," lie said briefly and pro ceeded to test the flavor of his lines. IF YOU ARE SICK And Need Medicine for Your Kidneys, Liver, Bladder or Blood, Get the Best.
