MB: PLATT gave up the fight for the speakership without fring a gun. He merely fired the New York candidate. [8 A TOWN in Kentucky two families of white persons are so busy killing each other that they haven't time to kill a black man, RS. EDDY, the leader of the Christian scientists, declares that when in practice she healed ninety-nine per cent. of her patients. How did the other patient get away? WO REASONS why Mr, Platt thinks McKinley will be the next na- tional candidate—One is that he deserves the honor, and the other that he isn’t Teddy Roosevelt. CCHRISTIANI says that when he struck at President Loubet he didn't know what he was doing. The court which gave him five years in prison was evidently better informed. HE SISTER of the duke of Orleans has sold behalf of her brother's cause. one that is never going to ha veral works of art in The cause, it is well to mention, is re any effect. THE SOCIETY WOMEN of Madrid refuse to attend gatherings to which Bellamy Storer, the American minister, is invited. As Mr. At- kinson and we remarked, months since, the American army should never have gone to Cuba, a [7 1S URGED that women ought to have the right of proposal. We have no doubt they would propose more gracefully than men; but would not their friends mob the man who rejected their advances ? However there is, of course, no such FAR DIFFERENT. WE HASTEN to state that the Frick steel combination will not be capitalized at five hundred millions, but only half that sum. Mr. Frick is quite cast down by the original statement, and we hate to be among the last to ease his feelings. POLITICAL ASSASSINS. ]S IAN EVIDENCE of social superiority in France to strike an un- armed man with a club? If it is, these social and political superiors might search the gutters and find a royalist equal to the killing of the president. He might even be a royalist sneak capable of shooting the president in the back. A FAMILY VICTORY. THE MOTHER of James Jeffries telegraphed him congratulations im- mediately after his successful argument with the champion pugilist. There is no love so tender and thoughtful as that of a mother. ‘The father of Mr. Jeffries, who is a clergyman, sent no telegram, but we have no doubt he jabbed a sermon on it. FRENCH ARMY IDOLS. ARCHAND is the popular idol in France. Not that he accomplished anything to speak of; but French idols are scarce and the necessity of whooping for the army is urgent in view of the Dreyfus matter. The government, however, is afraid to exhibit him; and it is not impossible that presently he will meet the fate of the forgotten Boulanger. HIS DIVINE RIGHT. THE PEACE CONFERENCE was hurt by the kaiser’s assumption that it was the divine right of his majesty to settle his own affairs without arbitration. He is the only man in the world to claim that supe- riority; and it probably hasn't occurred to him that if the other rulers did the same thing—and they have an equal right to do it—peace would be an angel in heaven, WHAT IS WORK? HAT THE CUBANS most need, according to General Wood, 1s work. Other people find work, and there is need of a great deal of it in Cuba to bring the country back to its old condition ; but these per- sons are modest and delicate and won't have anything to do with it with- out several introductions. Still, they were found to be industrious enough when they were brought in sight of Uncle Sam's rations. THE SUNDAY SLEEPERS THE REVEREND NEWTON M. MANN, who advocates the right to sleep in church, is an able and distinguished preacher. His friends say there is satire in the sermon in question, but it is so far underground that it is impossible to find it. Let us remind him of the still more chari- table judgment of Henry Ward Beecher. ‘When I see sleepers in my church,” said Mr. Beecher, “I always think it is my fault and try to make myself more interesting.” WHAT'S IN A NAME?
