THE LIVE PANTHER presented to Mr. Bryan will be a decided addition to that gentleman's populistic menagerie. cee SENATOR HOAR has given the ten commandments a new dressing and wants to have them adopted by the body to which he belongs. eee HE LATE MR. WASHINGTON has just had his one hundredth funeral, and the end is not yet. Where is the vi tory of death over our George? you NG WOMEN as ushers are a feat- ure of an Atlanta church, and all the men of the town are struggling to be sav- ed at that particular establishment. see THE ARCHBISHOP of Toronto con- demns patent-leather shoes. In order to be good must we wear cowhide and put on a clean shirt once in seven years? SOME OF THE liars of the Philippines ought to be choked off, for, after all, the Democratic half of the next national campaign doesn’t begin till next year. eee ENATOR TILLMAN says this coun- try is going to have a revolution. Per- haps he has knowledge to the effect that Mr. Goebel is going into national politics. cee * MCKINLEY and prosperity ” was one of the battle-cries of 1896. Per- haps next year the cry will be “ McKinley and Bliss,” for we have gone much higher. KANSAS PAPER says the Demo- cratic party is at the old stand. We see. It was once largely made up of cop- perheads. Now it is composed mostly of anti-expansionists. see THE QUESTION has arisen, can a wo- man who kisses a poodle be a real lady. That depends. nothing and nobody better upon whom to exercise her osculation. Perhaps she has KENTUCKY can come nearer to a revolution without touching it than any locality this side of South America; but she talks more murder than all of South America together. eee MBS: LANGTRY would like to go to South Africa as a nurse, and this notwithstanding the fact that her present husband is there already. After all, it’s a long time between divorces. . ‘STONE. stone this man of sin!" says a lady in a poem in the Utica Herald, speaking of Brigham Roberts. If the order is delivered to the women of the country, we don’t believe there is one of them that could hit him at three paces, HAVING A “HIGH OLD TIME.” HOW THEY MAY STOP. A CHICAGO MAN proposes a fund of a million dollars to send one hundred prominent Americans to Pretoria with a monster petition praying the British and Boers to stop fighting. If we attend to other peo- ple’s business in that way we ought also to dictate the terms of peace. WHY IS THIS? THE SUGGESTION of Mr. Reed for vice-president by the Chicago Times-Herald, which is very close to the president, is significant; as is the suggestion by the same paper that General Shafter for the place instead of Theodore Roosevelt would be an improvement. It is possible that our governor is rubbing himself against some strenuous politics. THE COPPERHEADS OF TO-DAY. ENERAL LAWTON said shortly before his death that if he was killed by a Filipino bullet it would be the work of the Filipino sym- pathizers of this country, since the rebellion would have been ended long ago but for their encouragement of the rebels. And sympathy with Agui- naldo and his following will be a part of the Democratic platform next year. NO INVASION. N INVASION of Canada is threatened with the purpose of preventing further enlistment of Canadians for the Trans- vaal. Nobody knows who will do the in- vading; but a good many Irishmen, living principally in Nebraska. are supposed to be responsible for the threats. But there will be no danger. The fenian invasion of several years ago furnished amusement enough for two centuries at least. WHY? ‘THE DIRECTOR of physical culture in the public schools of Detroit has ordered that the women teachers discard corsets on the ground that they are un- becoming and vain, and the teachers re- fuse to obey the order. Sympathy will probably be on the side of the teachers; and why is it that women in authority al- ways order the very things that the women subject to them would rather have them omit? OUT OF THEIR: SPHERE. Two GIRL BURGLARS, one fifteen and the other sixteen yearp old, have been brought to book, one in New Haven and the other in Chicago. In the solitude of their cells these girls will have ample opportunity to weep because they didn’t go to war or on the stag ind they will doubtless confess that it is impossible for women to succeed outside their proper sphere unless they keep within the limits of the law. FRENCH BOER VICTORIES. THE FRENCH have great satisfaction over the victories won by the Boers— not that they love the Boers more, but the British less. It is the existing method of fighting by the corrupt French army, and it is safer than the old one. The Boers sustain their own wounds and loss of life, and all the French have to do is to look on and cheer. It seems rather childish, but it is worthy of the institution that persecuted Dreyfus and tried to kill him. COLOR NO DETRIMENT. ROscoE CONKLING BRUCE, a colored youth, son of ex-Senator Blanche K. Bruce of Mississippi, won the prize debate for Harvard in the contest with Princeton recently. He is regarded as the most brill- iant debater among the three thousand students of his university; and it is added that he is one of the most popular men in Harvard, and “ warm- ly welcomed in the most exclusive set.” Thus talent triumphs over color; and probably this settles the negro problem as far as it ever can be settled. comicbooks.com
