*"lhere is no excellence without great Tabor."

"Make no friendship with an angry man and with a furious man thous shalt not go."—Proverbs 22:24.

Recent soundings in the South Pacific ocean between the Fiji islands and New Zealand show that there is a depth in that locality of 31,000 feet—which may be said to be quite a "hole." Mount Gaurisanker, or as it is generally called Mt. Everest, in the Himalayas, is 29,000 feet in height. It's a pretty even thing, but the ocean seems to be slightly ahead on tj?e race for excessive irregularity of surface.

The Secretary of Agriculture, who is a practical farmer and is familiar with the experiments of the agricultural stations, will adopt an intelligent policy in the distribution of seeds. He will study the best' varieties of sugar beet seeds to the sections suited to their cultivation. He has a theory that the Western price of corn for shipment is too low, and that the value of the grain can be enhanced by feeding to stock. Much attention will be given to this branch of agriculture.

What strange stories come up from the great oceans. A few days ago the steamer Naccoochee was ploughing the waste of waters off Cape Hatteras at full speed when a small boat was seen in the offing. As it came closer it signalled the steamer to stop, and, thinking the occupants of the boat might be shipwrecked sailors, the captain caused the steamer to slow down. On came the boat until it was in hailing distance and then a stentorian voice enunciated the question, "Who whipped in the Carson City prize fight?"—Indianapolis SentineL

An alleged air-ship has been "hovering" over parts of Kansas and Nebraska for some time back at intervals. According to reports telegraphed from various points the machine is a "big thing" with a search light that sends a great bar of light whisking around tte "canopy of night," so to speak, in a most bewildering fashion. 'Human voices are also alleged to have been heard dripping down through spacedrops of sound like hail or rain. The details of the "vision" are a trifle overdrawn but not altogether incredible. The last alleged appearance of the mysterious vessel was at Nashville, 111., where a large red light appeared against a vast dark outline sailing against the wind. The fact that it sailed against the wind is regarded as proof that the machine was not a balloon. There may be "something in it," but from the buik of information at hand it would seem that Munchausen has some very competent successors in our day.

That distinguished advocate of woman suffrage, Miss Phoebe Couzins, has "gone back on her record" and now announces in an interview that woman in public life would never prove to be a success. Miss Couzins has devoted her energies for the greater part of her life to the cause and her defection is regarded as almost treasonable by the faithful adherents of the cause of woman's advancement to the dignity of a voter. In an interview at St. Louis recently, to which city she had just arrived from California on an invalid's chair, prostrated with rheumatism, Miss Couzins said: "The vast majority of women prefer the quiet domestic life, while man by nature seeks the conflicts of the outer world and its theories and grows therein. Woman in public life will never prove satisfactory. She is naturally a homekeeper. I would advise all young women to marry and become housekeepers." Miss Couzins attacked the honesty of the World's Fair lady managers and scored Susan B. Anthony and other suffrage leaders.

Even thieves have their good points— some thieves at least. Boss Tweed some years ago was considered without a redeeming quality—the arch-conspira-tor of a gang of robbers who plundered the city of New York ruthlessly and unscrupulously. Yet it is said there is a change of public sentiment, in the great city, to a certain extent, in regard to Mr. Tweed's public services. The puWic improvements that he projected and in some cases finished have proved, as time went by, that he was a man of large ideas and great foresight, and that while he was a "costly luxury" he did in fact make a greater return for the millions stolen than he was given credit for. Even Mayor Strong has rendered tardy justice to this typical municipal robber in a specch before the Board of Estimates recently in which he said: "We all know that the Tweed regime did more for.the city of New York than any administration before or since. If Boss Tweed did take a couple of hundred dollars every year for himself, look what he gave the city. His work is something to be proud of in some respects. Why, if he was alive now I don't know but what I'd vote to give it to himself in consideration of the magnificent boulevard and public avenue he buih for its." "I wasn't really indorsing Mr. Tweed's way of doing things," said the Mayor to a World reporter later

"but we must acknowledge that while he was rather a costly luxury for New York, he did have some very good ideas about public improvements. If that be treason, you'll have to make the most of it."

Pessimistic preachers find confirma

tion for their gloomy opinions in sta

tistics emanating from the census bureau which show that this country is populated by about 72 per cent, of infidels. Of our 70,000,000 people only 20,000,000 are communicants of all churches of all denominations. The remainder are "running wild" so far as observance of the religious ordinances is concerned. Of these 20,000,000, 7,000,000 are Roman Catholics. Rev. Father Shahan, a prominent Catholic priest of New York City, in a recent sermon vigorously condemned the policy of other denominations for the gloomy condition of the churches of the country and held that we could no longer fairly be called "a Christian country." Coming from a Catholic source the sentiments of the sermon were rather surprising. He held that the "socialistic spirit" was largely responsible for this condition of affairs. In closing Father Shahan said: "So we must combat this alarming development of the Socialistic spirit if we would preserve the state as our agency for the protection of individual and family rights, of corporation rights, of the rights of the Church. Religious influence is essential to the stability of the Republic, and where the Socialistic spirit takes root religious influence must die."

STATE OF HAWAII.

"Manifest Destiny" apparently will in the near future bring us a member of Congress and two Senators from the storied isles where Queen Lili "lost her job." There is good reason to believe that "the powers that bee" have fully determined upon a policy that will result in annexation of the present Republic of Hawaii and finally its admission as a State. The same program that brought Texas into tl Union is likely to be followed. The independence of Texas, like the Republic of Hawaii, was established largely through the assistance of citizens of the United States, and was recognized by this government in March, 1837. From that hour there was talkabout annexation. The manifest destiny and the organization of the republic were regarded but stepping-stones to union with the United States. In 1843 John C. Calhoun, who was then Secretary of State, negotiated a treaty of anexation with commissioners from Texas, but it was rejected by the Senate on the 8th of June, 1844. after a long and heated discussion. In the following December a joint resolution was introduced in the House of Representatives providing for annexation, and on Jan25, 1845, it was passed by a vote of 120 to 25, and was approved by President Tyler on March 1. President Jones of Texas immediately called a convention of delegates to consider the question of annexation. They accepted the resolution of Congress and framed a constitution, which was submitted to the people and ratified by them. This constitution was laid before Congress at its meeting in December, and on the 29th of that month a joint resolution was passed approving it and declaring annexation complete. A joint resolution has been introduced in the House by Representative Spalding of Michigan, providing for the annexation of Hawaii which is an exact copy of the resolution that brought Texas into the Union, substituting the word "Hawaii" for "Texas." The resolution provides "that the consent of Congress is given upon the following conditions and with the following guaranty—to-wit: First, said state to be formed subject to the adjustment by this government of all questions of boundary or jurisdiction that may arise with other governments, or former governments of Hawaii and the constitution thereof, with the 'proper evidence of its adoption by the people of the government of Hawaii, shall be transmitted to the President of the United States, to be laid before Congress for its final action on or before the 1st day of January, eighteen hundred and ninetyeight.'

Section 3 provides that, "If the President of the United States shall, in his judgment, deem it advisable, instead of proceeding to submit the foregoing resolution to the government of Hawaii as an overture on the part of the United States for admission, to negotiate with that government, then be it resolved that a state to be formed out of the present government of Hawaii, with suitable extent and boundaries, and with one representative in Congress until the next apportionment of representation, shall be admitted into the Union by virtue of this act on an equal footing with the existing States, as soon as the terms and conditions of such admission and the cession of the remaining Hawaiian territory to the United States shall be agreed upon by the governments of Hawaii and the United States and that a sum of $100,000 be, and the same is hereby, appropriated to defray the expenses of missions and negotiations to agree upon the terms and conditions of said admission and cession, either by treaty or to be submitted to the Senate, or by articles to be submitted to both Houses of Congress, as the President may directs"

GROWING OLD.

REFLECTIONS AND OBSERVATIONS BY A DISTINGUISHED HOOSIER.

Even tho Mature Man of Sixty May Learn Wisdom From Past Experience.

The first score years of an average man's life are as a rule wasted. If a boy when he has attained his twentieth year has laid in a good big stock of health, has acquired a reasonable amount of facts, and especially has learned good manners and how to live smoothly with his associates he is then ready to begin his life work and to think and act for himself. This applies to college graduates, who often have more to unlearn and to learn than the ordinary youth. Forty years ago I found myself with an A. B. attached to my name and 20 cents in my pocket, pondering over an unexpected great truth—"root, hog, or die." To my great amazement no one cared at which end of the maxim I began. For the first time in my life I worked hard for the necessary three meals a day and the next twelve months came near starving. Somehow I managed to pull through, although at the end of the year out at toes and elbows. I count that as the most valuable year of my life, for I had learned when I came twenty-one:

First—That nobody cares for you unless you make it worth their while so to do.

Second—That the hardest thing in the world to get and the easiest to lose is money, public confidence and character.

I did not learn until twenty years afterwards the value of popularity, and that if it can be secured without the sacrifice of self-respect it is always worth our best efforts. I There are some things that even the most mature man never perfectly learns.

One of these is to "see yourself as others see you." Huxley once wrote a famous book on "Man's Place in Nature." If some one would only write another up on "How to Reduce Our Illusions About Ourselves and Our Importance" it would be far more valuable. Buf it will never be done. Man to himself is the perpetual wonder. This wonder is only exceeded by another, and that—woman's value to herself. We all imagine ourselves of supreme consequence to the world, while as a matter of fact the world is totally indifferent to us, and our absence is hardly ever noticed or missed. And yet human vanity is unchangeable as the great law of gravitation. At thirty we know it all at forty, if wise, the swelling of personal infallibility begins to be reduced at fifty we admit that others know as much as we do, and if a man has been properly disciplined and kicked and cuffed, at sixty years ha is willing to allow that he doesn't know anything worth mentioning.

I wish to make this memorial as impersonal as possible, and yet to make it useful to boys and young men. and so I add a personal confession. I doubt if youth ever started in the race of life with a poorer natural equipment than mine. Of unattaractive person, shy and distant manners, always saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, I had. in addition, a slow, foggy mind, which acted well enough when aroused, and expressed itself vigorously and tersely, but the trouble was to get it started. Oh! how often have I longed for that best of intellectual gifts—quick perception, the ability to read hard books, coolness, and that greatest of social gifts, genial manners. But nature always compensates. She blessed me with dogged perseverance and untiring industry. I do not think that I ever failed in any large matter that I seriously undertook, nor is there any necessity whatever for a young man with good natural abilities to despair of success, either in Indiana or the West. It is amazing what openings there arc in this State for a popular youth in law, politics, money-making or social advancement. To such a young man Indiana is in many rcspects the best State in the whole Union. But, then, lie must give his whole mind to it. The successful office-getters, or money-getters, or praise-getters, arc those who want the office, the money, or the praise, and want it badly, want it right off. and can't do without it, and are willing, in Rome, to do as Romans do.

What are some of the best lessons that life and experience bring to a man of three-score? Without hesitation I say that the greatest art of life is conduct. Emerson says: "Of all wit's uses the main one

Is to live well with those who have none." To live smoothly and to do your work with a minimum of friction is one of the greatest of accomplishments. But, then, what is your work? As a rule, that which you delight in doing and which you can do the easiest. The path of least resistance is nature's sign manual that that is your life's path. Unfortunately, the most of us are examples of round pegs in square holes. Then, again,Jiow shall a man work smoothly? He is" bound to have his enemies, but in a large sense enemies and enmity are not bad things. A good assortment of

i*'T-•.

vigilant and malicious enemies makes life interesting. They teach you your weak points and develop the fight that is in you that otherwise might have laid unsuspected. How about b6oks? At sixty years a man has his book list completed. He has learned on what lines to read, and outside of these lines he is indifferent. I think the majority of men at three score cease to read books at all except for amusement or special information. They prefer life, newspapers, people and emergencies to the passive act of reading or studying. I have four thousand books in my library, but could just as well reduce the number to forty, which would answer all my purposes. I do not expect any more surprises for the rest of my life such as for one's first fifty years constituted the spice of existence. But although after sixty life is the same thing over and over again, nevertheless, the great world forges grandly ahead. The last fifty years of our history are the greatest. The collapse of slavery, the magnificent growth of the power of the people, the splendid advancements of science and religion, the discovery of the telephone, electricity and what not are all an intoxication and a delight to a gray-haired man. As if to prepare old age for its coming, nature at three score softens our asperities and makes us lenient towards one another and ourselves. We learn at sixty the great truth that the humblest life is divine, to condemn no one unheard, to abstain from acrid judgments, and that everybody, no matter how much censured, has his or her side of the story, and always insists passionately that he or she is in the right. At sixty we learn to suspend judgment of not only men but measures. At forty we are violent Republicans or Democrats or Populists. At sixty we learn that even the Populist may possess some of the cardinal virtues, and also that in the division of political truths both of the other great parties have shared about equally. There are as good Christians in the Democratic as in the Republican fold, although it must be admitted that the Christianity of both is susceptible to great improvement.

Another of the experiences of a man of sixty is that each year the wisest as well as the most foolish, saint as well as sinner, must pay a large quota of fool tax. Mine for the last forty years has been of very liberal proportions. It is amazing how the coolest-headed and the shrewdest of us get fooled, and how we grow both red and gray in striving for things, cither place, or property or praise, which, when attained, proved to be only one more thorn in the flesh.

The man of three-score may take in a larger section of the grindstone called life than the boy of twenty, but, after all, he doesn't comprehend its mystery any better. How came we here? No one consulted us about our arrival, nor will we be asked any questions about our exit. Our heredity and early environments are matters prearranged for us by a higher power. While the terms of the game of life are always fair, yet the inequalities that fall to the lot of the different players are frightful to think about. One travels life's pathway over thick and soft carpets woven of wealth, talent and social position: another. equally worthy, makes the journey all the way along through hot plowshares. No one will ever explain this mystery. We are all of us free and yet unl'ree masters in a sense of our destinies. and in another and larger sense puppets in the hands of a higher power. But for all this, life, while often a burlen to be borne, is grandly worth the living. The man at forty sighs for other worlds. He wants to know all about the next life. The same man at sixty, looking down the slope, perhaps twenty years long to the end, is quite contented with one world at a time, and quite satisfied if when he leaves it he is no worse than his neighbor. At three-score we begin to think that, after all, the immortality of the type, even though the individual withers, is worth living for. Suppose that one's petty individuality is lost in the sublime sweep of the ages, what of it if the race—humanity—has advanced in his day. and if he has added his little infinitessimal mite to such advance? Our surroundings are largely accidental, sometimes happy, oftener otherwise, but ourselves and our partnership in the great firm of humanity are grand facts. And so I look forward to old age—twenty years of it, I hope, without the slightest fear or regret. I am cheered and encouraged by the grand sentiments of our grand poet-prophet, as expressed in "Rabbi Ben Ezra." It is as natural to die as to live. When an apple is ripe it falls, but its sweetest days are its last days. And so with men. The year seventy should be far more enjoyable than the year sixty, and the year eighty, if that is our lot, the most enjoyable of the whole circle.

What He THi ew In.

They were just closing up the real estate deal, and the man who always wanted something thrown in to make a good bargain appeared to hesitatelifft "What'll you throw in?" "What'll I what A "What'll you throw in as a sort of bonus?" "Oh, yes, yes, of course," said the real estate man. "How stupid of me. Why, the fact is, in our line of business, we are not exactly in the habit of giving prizes, but. in this case, just to make it binding, I don't mind throwing in the back taxes." "Now, you're talking business!" exclaimed the would-be purchaser. "It always pays for a man to stick out for his rights!"

It was only after the transfer was made'that lie discovered that the back taxes were payable by and not to the owner.—Chicago Post.

THE HON. HORACE RIDDLE EX"MEMBER OF SUPREME BENCH..

Not Only as a Jurist and Author, But As a Poet, Scientist and Philosopher, He Won -S -Distinction.

Logansport special to the Indianapolis News: Horace P. Biddle, poet, scientist, jurist and philosopher, is passing his declining days in a rambling old house oh the island in the Wabash river which bears his name. Fifty years ago he was recognized as a man of more than ordinary abilities, and when elected to the Supreme Bench in 1874 Judge Biddle was one of the most notable men in Indiana. Always honored by Indianians, Judge Biddle is especially popular with Logansport citizens, who are proud to have such an eminent man among them. Surrounded by books, flowers, music and paintings, time passes swiftly and pleasantly for him. Almost daily the hospitable doors of the old man are thrown open to admit friends, who find delight in a half hour's visit with the venerable old man. He is never so happy as when entertaining visitors, and a walk through the quaint old house with Judge Biddle as a guide is a never to be forgotten event.

The house was built in 1833 by the late Gen. John Tipton, then United States Senator from Indiana, on a small island in the Wabash river, which flows directly through Logansport. The old mansion is still in an excellent state of preservation, and, surrounded by spacious grounds and rugged elms, forms a delightfully picturesque spot. Inside the dwelling the ceilings are low and the walls and wood-work stained with age. Although there arc many things to attract attention, the visitor* is most strongly impressed by the number of books which line the shelves in many rooms. Judge Biddle has the largest private library in the State, and it is doubtful if any libraries in the United States will equal it in all of three particulars—number of books, range of subjects and rarity. For many years he has devoted his time to literature, and at the present time his library contains about ten thousand valumes. Among them are numerous works bv Tudce Biddle.

Of the thousands of books, none are sealed to him. His mind is a vast storehouse of knowledge, acquired partly in the course of his professional experience in courts and legislative bodies, but gathered mainly by hard work in the various departments of science and literature. He never attended college, but educated himself by a long and rigid course of self-instruction. Ho has a full knowledge of Latin, and is thoroughly conversant with German and French from all of which he has made translations. In former years he was a contributor to some of the leading magazines. In 1840 he published his first volume of poems under the modest title of "A Few Poems." The work was highly complimentel by Irving, Longfellow, Charles Mackay and other literary men of note. In 1858 Mr. Biddle issued another volume under the same title. In i860 he published his work on "The Musical Scale," differing from generally-accepted authorities, not only in analysis of harmony, but in the combination of harmonies and the arrangement of some of the intervals of the scale. Subsequently the judge's theories was proved correct by the microphone in opposition to other works. His third volume of poems, "Glances at the World,' 'appeared in 1864, followed in 1876 by "American Boyhood." Among his contributions in pamphlet form arc "A Discourse on Art," "The Definition of Poetry," "The Analysis of Rhyme," "An Essay on Russian Literature" and "Prof. Tyndall's Work on Sound." Among his latest literary works are "Elements of Knowledge," "Prose Miscellany," "Last Poems" and "Amatories by an Amateur."

All the honor and distinction attained by Judge Biddle was due solely to his own efforts. He was born near Lancaster, O., March 24, 1811, being the youngest of nine children. He remained on the farm till he was twentyfour, and, having read everything he could lay his hands on, determined to study law. He studied under Hocking H. Hunter, of Lancaster, and in 1839 was admitted to the bar, from which time his rise was rapid. He located in Logansport in 1840. In 1846 he was elected judge of the eighth circuit, and in 1857 he was chosen to the Supreme bench by 25,000 majority. The court held that there was no vacancy, and it was not till 1874 that he was elected to the Supreme bench by a majority of 33,000. He held this office for eighteen years, and then retired to his island home, where he has remained ever since.

Same Old Method.

Just as the physicians who had been in consultation seemed about to reach an agreement the patient died. "Fine subject," said one of the physicians, as they gathered about the bed. "Splendid," echoed another. "Seems too bad to waste it by burial." "Why should we?" asked the third. "All we have to do is to get up a violent dispute as to the real cause of death in order to get a chancc to dissect it."

And so they worked the old scheme again. —ChicagoPost.
