One ef the River and Harbor Sights of New York City. One of tbo sights of the harbor familiar enough to those acquainted with tbo water front, but of never failing Interest to the waterside strolling stranger. Is tbo big railroad ferryboat that carries the Boston-Washington through trains around Manhattan between Mott Haven and Jersey City, and apparently this ride Is as Interesting to tbo people on the boat as Ihe boat Is to the people on the shore. They just ran tbo whole train on this boat; and then in fair weather the passengers get out to stretch their legs and. take In the view. As the big boat conies along with the cars of the train aboard seen projecting out forward and aft on deck from under the hoods you see the passengers standing forward for their eight or ten miles water ride down the East river and op the north, or ' vice versa, through all the varied river traffic close at band, while shoreward they have that marvelous view of the lower city, The boat is one of the city's notable river sights, and the trip on the boat Itself and the view from Us deck are still as wonderful as ever to the unaccustomed traveler.

Why Now?

The announcement of Mayor Zimmerman yesterday to the effect that the board of public works would soon meet again with the representative of the Richmond Light, Heat and Power company to consider the proposition that was presented to the city by that company on Tuesday, seems to be sufficient notice that the mayor desires to push the matter and settle the gas franchise during his present administration. The mayor and the board of public works took up the water works problem from the wrong end and they now find themselves in the position of having bids presented that do not cover the points the city should be safeguarded in. We hop that the mayor will not follow the same course In the gas franchise problem. Why not handle the matter in a business like manner and leave politics out for the time being? The letting of a gas franchise that will obligate and tie the hands of the people for the next twenty-five years should have careful consideration. If the mayor and board or public works are in earnest about trying to get a new gas franchise that will give the people of Richmond a better rate, let them prepare a set of specifications, after careful consideration, that will cover all the points the citizens should be protected in. The quality of gas, pressure, laying of pipes, paying for expenses of changing street grades, allowances for improvement of gas machinery In the future that will cheapen the cost of production of gas, and the length of franchise arc all important matters. After the specifications are properly prepared then and only then will be the proper time for the city to take up the gas question. In the meantime, let's Bettle the water works question.

The Bryan Mystery.

Mr. Bryan continues the dominant force in the Democratic party. He looms larger and larger as the controller of its destinies, and its chances of success correspondingly diminish His leadership cannot be disputed. Neither can his domination be explained. The hold he maintains in defeat after defeat is one of the political enigmas of this generation. It almost seems that he tightens his hold with every defeat. Friends and foes alike realize that he has never led the party to anything save defeat and yet whenever a criBis approaches he becomes the center of the fightings This is significantly illustrated in the meeting of the Democratic national committee. He participated, despite the advice of his closest political advisers, they fearing that such activity would be construed as nothing short of dictation. He was twice defeated and emerged with his leadership unquestioned. The contests in which he failed served to increase his strength. This was as it has been ever since that time years ago when he first cast his spell over a national political body. Participating in the deliberations of the national committee he reiterated his declaration that under no circumstances would he be a candidate for the Democratic nomination for president. Despite this he emerged with the belief more pronounced, among the leaders of his own party, that he hopes the lightning will again strike in his vicinity and that he will again be the presidential nominee. The spectacle of a party leader, repudiated time and again by the conservative element, repudiating both conservatives and radicals, and yet maintaining his strength, increasing it, indeed, is without precedent in our political history. Yet this is the situation, and facts are facts. Take this present repudiation of those who are admittedly the strongest factors for the Democratic nomination. It is a fact which admits of no contradiction that the Democratic party now has the best chance of national success It has had since the days of Grover Cleveland. The opposition openly acknowledges that, with Woodrow Wilson the standard bearer, the fight would indeed be a hard one to win, with the Republican party united. In spite of this Bryan has now taken a position opposed to the New Jersey governor. He will fight the nomination of Wilson. Bryan's opposition to Judson Harmon is a matter of long standing, and yet, next to Wilson, it is admitted that the Ohio governor would be the strongest man whom the Democrats could nominate. The antagonism of Bryan in the case of Harmon, however,,' was expected and thus when now made with great emphasis causes no surprise. The strength of Oscar Underwood is admitted. He has been looming large ever since his ability as a party leader was demonstrated in the special session of congress. In spite of this the opposition of Bryan to the bouse leader has been growing as Underwood's strength has increased. While the name of Champ Clark is not yet on the Bryan blacklist, it Is nevertheless a fact that Bryan has criticised Clark. Drawing conclusions, it is quite probable that as Clark develops strength, if he should, as a candidate for the presidential nomination the opposition of Bryan would become clearly and emphatically apparent. What does Bryan's elimination of Wilson, Harmon and Underwood and the possible repudiation of Clark mean? These pronouncements, if they show anything indicate that the Nebraskan is opposed to the strongest contenders for the Democratic nomination. They also apparently indicate that Bryan's opposition increases as the candidacy of an aspirant grows in popularity-j-South Bend Tribune.

Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE.

-TIE WORST BOT He was the "worst boy in town." One day this boy and others engaged in a sort of expedition along the river bank. As they passed the bridge the forlorn "meow" of a cat was prolonged into a cry that was almost human. It was a plea for help. The gang paused. Over on one of the low stone piers upon which the bridge was built was a lone pussy sending up its Macedonian cry to come over and help. The poor thing had climbed down the skeleton steel plates to the pier and did not have sense enough to climb back the same way. Marooned, it sent up its wall. The pitiKus plea got under the ragged Jacket of the worst boy. Though he knew the water was cold, be began to take off his shoes and stockings. "Aw, Bill," said one, "it's only a cat It'll get off all right. Let it go." "Shut your mouth," responded Bill. "I'm doin' this, and I know what I'm doin', and don't you forget it." The worst boy waded fn and got the cat, which foolish pussy, in terror lest it be thrown into the water, yowled and scratched unmercifully. "Throw it in the water. Bill. All cats can swim." Halfway out the worst boy stopped, bent a fixed and ominous look on the speaker that caused a sudden silence and then waded out with the cat. Which proves what? It proves what Dickens said that there is a way, though it may be up a winding stair, to every human heart. The worst boy had the biggest heart, and the cat found a way to it. Do you wonder Garfield said he always felt like taking off his hat to a boy of the streets because of the possibilities under the ragged jacket? Garfield also said that Our society Is not like the society of Europe, which is like the strata of the earth each layer holding down the one beneath It but is like the waves of the sea, where "the lowest drop may rise and glisten on the topmost wave." Many a "worst boy In town" has risen from the depths to distinction. A Sure Thing. "I have often predicted that my wife's hair would be nice and curly at night," said the clever one. "How do I know? Why, I saw it In the morning papers." New York Mail. Probably. Teacher What did the Philistines say after David had slain Goliath? Willie Oh. I suppose they said: "Never mind. The season's young yet Walt till David hits a slump." Puck. The Gender of Stamps. Never had there been such a commotion in the little flat. And the most excited person present was the sister of a young mother who had just presented her husband with twins. Auntie was wildly delighted at being auntie in a double sense, and off she rushed to the postoffice for stamps to spread the great tidings. "Stamps!" she jerked as she reached the counter and flung down her money. "How many, miss?" politely inquired the clerk. "Two!" she cried Joyously. "What kind?" "A boy and a girl." she returned rapturously as she bade him hurry. London Answers. Taking Her Down. "Mrs. Dash is no longer in our set," a woman once said at an afternoon tea. "Yes, so I understand," said another woman. "Yes," went on the first woman with a haughty sneer "yes, she dropped out some time ago." "Is that so?" said the other. "I was under the impression that she climbed out." Exchange. Cascarets Surely Straighten you out No Headache, Biliousness, Upset Stomach, Lazy Liver or Constipated Bowels by morning. Are you keeping your bowels, liver and stomach clean, pure and fresh with Cascarets, or merely forcing a passageway through these alimentary or drainage organs every few days with Salts, Cathartic pills. Castor Oil or Purgative Waters. Stop having a bowel wash-day.

LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL MEETS UNION CITY Championship laurels in the northern section of the sixth congressional district will be determined when the local high school basketball team meets the Union City high school aggregation Saturday evening at the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium. The Richmond youngsters have recently developed excellent team work, and with the forwards throwing goals accurately. Principal Neff and Manager McClellan both look for victory. The game will be interesting as it breaks last year's tie when each squad won one game. Next week the Richmond prep players take the first trip of the season, going down to Rushvllle and Shelbyville to play two league games. As Liberty has been forced to withdraw from the district league by the school board of that city, Manager McClellan has rrranged a game with Stivers high at Dayton, to be played here on the twenty-fourth of February. Classes in forestry and women's physical training were organized last evening at the public high school.
