S+UFFALO BILL KILLED!” is the headline under which Idaho newspapers announce the defeat in the Legislature of that State of the bill appropriating fifteen thousand dollars for an exhibit at the Pan-American te] N OUR OWN CITY,” casually remarks the San Francisco Argo- naut, “all the morning papers are now owned by millionaires.” So, out there, all that’s yellow is gold. We are bound to say, though, that it does not glitter very brilliantly. A YOUNG INDIAN LAD at the Hampton Institute wrote a composi- tion and thus characterized a prominent personage : “ Richard Croker is the presidentship of the management of the workers of evil of New York City." That Indian may be a bit shy on English verbalism, but clearly he is no Flathead. PRESIDENT McKINLEY'S announcement 9f his Cabinet selections for his second term was the simplest and briefest of the kind on rec- ord, being in effect just this: “The same over again, please!” His reten- tion of our premier American diplomat as Secretary of State evinces a right determination to make Hay while the sun shines.

FOREIGNERS arriving by steamship in the port of New York agree with Americans returning home from Europe that the Bartholdi statue of Liberty is a grim joke, in view of the exasperating outrages and personal humiliations to which these same passengers are subjected, upon landing, by the legalized thugs who act as customs officials. Reform it altogether! IT’S A BIRD! ACCORDING to Bradford Torrey, birds have a regularly evolved lan- guage of their own, with “parts of speech” quite human-like. Jays are the most accomplished of the feathered linguists, except the parrots, who have rather too much vocabulary, such as it is. The American eagle's A CHURCH-MUSIC “SCORE.” R. FRANK DAMROSCH severely but on the whole justly scores the “quartet choirs” which infest so many of our modern American churches, and the organists and choir-masters who mix up operatic and other secular mus with divine service. Musi- cians who have no better sense of the eternal fitness of things than to substitute, in the house of holy worship, such theatrical compositions as the intermezzo from “Ca- valleria Rusticana,” or the Miserere from “Il Trova- tore,” for the purely religious music of which there is rich abundance, from Pales- trina and Bach down to Barnby, Stainer, Mar- tin, Dyke.

ME: C. M. SCHWAB is the million-a-year-salaried man who heads the management of the new colossal steel trust. He must possess phe- nomenal business capacity, as apparently he doesn’t know a thing in any other direction, which might distract his mental energies from the one great object in life. Of course, ignorance of certain matters does not nec- essarily stand in the way of one’s talking about them; and here is a char- acteristic utterance of Mr. Schwab: “I do not believe in a college educa- tion for a business man. To understand his business a man must start at the bottom of the ladder and work himself up. To do so he must com- mence when young, when he learns quickly and may be led. A college man seldom rivets his whole attention on his work. He is in dreamland most of the time, gives his evenings to society, and tries to combine work with pleasure. He is not wrapped up in his work.” JUDGE would earn- estly advise Mr. Schwab, who is of a college man, to rivet his whole at- tention on his work hereafter. comicbooks.com
