CLEVELAND is to be commended for seeking even at this late day to improve the war record that he made while Lincoln was President.
THERE will probably not be any war with England, but the fact will be impressed upon her that she can have one whenever she says the word.
THERE are 109 women in the world to every 100 men. It is the best kind of a surplus to have. The civilization and the humanities of the world are largely dependent upon the women.
EVERY man that kicks a banana peel from the sidewalk or removes a loose bowlder from the street is a benefactor. After all it is the little things in life that mainly make up the miseries or happiness of the race.

THE SHIP WAS AGROUND.
But the Passengers Discovered That Fact In a Kouudabout Way. It must be about ten years since I was returning to this country from New York on board one of the Anchor line boats. We left quite early in the morning, p.nd wore steaming down the bay in high hopes of a pleasant, trip. We soon got into a thick fog, anrl after passing Sandy Hook at about quarter speed tlio ship ran aground. The majority of the passengers, however, knew nothing of our plight, for the propeller kept on churning up the water in frantic efforts to get the vessel off the mud, and the fog was so dense that very few people noticed we were not making headway.
The captain dispatched his first officer to Sandy Hook to telegraph the position of affairs to the agents, but as the engines were still kept going no one suspected that anything unusual had occurred.
Presently the boat returned, but no questions were asked, and no one seemed to have the idea that there was any need to ask them.
Two or three hours passed, and an ocean tug came alongside out of the fog. Newsboys came on board to sell their papers, and did a good business. "Kxtrar! Extrar!" was their cry, and tlnse "extrars" contained on the front page a full and graphic account of the stranding of the very liner on which they were disposing of them "Great Scott!" exclaimed one man who had invested in a paper, "don't these papers know how to lie? Here's one sayiug now that our ship has run aground!" "So we are, and likely to remain," answered an officer, upon which the passenger ran to the side of the vessel and looked over in order to convince himself.
The news now, of course, began to spread all over the ship, but it was too much for everybody when a quarter of an hour later a stout old gentleman sprang up from his seat and yelled, "Jerusalem! we're aground," and then ran full tilt along the deck in a fearful state of terror. —London Telegraph.
Treasurer Upton's Request. Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton, as treasurer, has sent out her annual letter, reminding the members of the N. A. W. S. A. that their contributions are now due. Accompanying this letter, Mrs. TJpton has sent out a printed slip which reads as follows: "Do you not know some believer in woman's political advancement who may not care to take an active part in local, state or national work, and yet who could become a member of the National American society if you asked her personally or sent her the inclosed article of the constitution? Will you not try to get one contributing member? Will net every member act on this suggestion?"

Teacher—And what is meant by keeping the Sabbath holy? Kthel—It means—it means to think of something you would like to do, oh, rv»»r so much, and then not doing it 'cause it's Sunday.—Indianapolis JourDftl
M. Koli'sseau, the new governor of the French possessions in Indo-China, is a radical dress reformer and has issued orders that all ladies attending government balls shall wear high necked gowns. He has been nicknamed Mr. Modesty.
President Faure of France is a very carefully dressed sSfcn, and, it is said, spends a largo sum annually at his tailor's. Ho is somewliat fussy about his clothes, but thero are those of the ancient regime who assert that he does not know how to dress becomingly.
Hannibal Andrews is Maine's latest hero. He is the veteran brickmason of Milton plantation, 71 years of age, who, crippled with rheumatism, had the neighbors hoist him with ropes to the roof of North Woodstock's new schoolhouse and laid the last brick on top of the chimney.

NORTHWEST. He Is a millionaire and it is therefor* unreasonable to sup: pose that his work along historical lines was animated by any spirit of selfishness or sordidness. No other man is so welli equipped for the 'task he self-imposed. He has been a conspicuous figure in In-, dlana almost continuously since It was admitted to Statehood. He was secretary of the Constitutional Convention, and his: personality Is strongly marked in the organic law as well as in much of subseciuent legislation. His great wealth haa afforded him opportunities for devoting his entire attention to literary labor. His intimacy with public men and State ans Federal officials, has given him exceptional facilities for gaining access to documenta necessary to insure thoroughness and exactness in the preparation of his history. After several years of ardent devotion and labor, undertaken In a spins of State pride and for pure love of It, the publication of "THE CONQUEST OF THE NORTHWEST" will cause him to be kindly remembered as an Inaianlan whose motives have been often miscon* strued, and whose real worth as a man and citizen has been often ignored by, unreasonable political bias and human na^ ture's inherent prejudice against men Ofi Immense wealth.—Lafayette ^Courier*
