(National Ntws Association) BERLIN, Feb. 5. For the first time In Germany's history, the liberal or socialistic parties will wield the balance of power 'when the Relschstag convenes Wednesday. By combination of the 110 Socialists, 48 National Liberals and 49 Radicals, they will hare a majority of thirteen over the combination of Clericals, Conservatives and allied parties. The changed aspect of the Relschtag as a result of. the recent national elections, is of great Import to all Germany, and to Europe as well. It means that in many of the pet measures of the Kaiser and his Ministers, Instead of being "railroaded" through the German Parliament will meet with stern opposition, Against Conservatives. The three progressive parties of the left are united against the conservatives on all matters of international economy. They will pull together for a reduction of the burdensome taxation system and the prohibitive tariffs which have Impoverished the poorer classes of the country, and they will stand together in Insisting on a reapportionment of the Relschtag districts for the next national election. As the districts are now portioned out, the conservatives are able, In their strongholds, to elect the same number of members to the Relschstag on less than half as many votes as are required In the districts where the Liberals are strong. Under an equitable apportionment, the liberals of the last recent, election would have received a majority of delegates nearly twice as large as the one now possessed by the I casting of the same number of ballots ur luvir vauuiuam, mil win w uuc of the most bitterly fought measures that will come before the approaching session, and it la certain to be Introduced, according to declarations of liberal leaders. It will be more than violently opposed) however, by the conservative parties, and the Kaiser himself is naturally set strongly against It. War Pol ley. Favored. I Thus, all the parties of the left wing are as one in matters of Internal Inter- j est As to matters of foreign policy, it Is different. The National Liberal party which has but 64 votes, will vote against the Socialists and Radicals and with tho conservatives on all matters of national armament and defense, which means'1 that the time-honored policy of warlike preparedness advocated years ago by the great Bismarck will continue to hold forth. For the swinging of the National Liberal's votes to the Right, will turn the majority that way. Accordingly the National Liberals are strong enough to win victory on every measure they favor. They hold precisely the same position In the Relschtag as Is held In the British Parliament by the Irish Nationalists, who can swing the vote either way by allying themselves with whichever party they choose to support on a bill. The real leader of the Relschstag. therefore. Is not the head of the Socialists, who possess a greater number of members than any other one party, but the leader of the National Liber, a Is.

LIGHTING The official life of "one of the greatest fighters, best fellows and most beloved officers the service afloat has ver had" expired the other day, when Rear Admiral Richard Walnwrigbt retired from active service, owing to the age limit. No officer in the United States navy was better known or better liked than -Fighting Dick" Walnwrlght His record of service Is long and efficient He graduated from the Naval Academy In 1868, but it was not until the early 90's that his name began to be heard outside the service. He was executive officer of the Battleship Maine when she waa blown up in Havana harbor. When war was declared with Spain Capt. Walnwrlght was among the first to apply for active service. He was delighted when he was placed in command of J. Pierpont Morgan's transformed pleasure yacht the Corsair. The little vessel was renamed the Gloucester, in honor 6f the Massachu-

. setts city where Walnwrlght was born. The Gloucester lost no time In Joining the blockading fleet at Santiago. When the Spanish fleet attempted to scape the Gloucester pounded and destroyed the two torpedoboat destroyers, Pluton and Furor, ere they scarcely had begun their reckless dash from the harbor. For the "eminent and conspicuous conduct" displayed at Santiago Capt Walnwrlght was advanced ten numbers.

Often 1 was hardly able to straighten on account of sharp, cutting pains across the small of my back and the least exertion or any cold I contracted caused the kidney secretions to pass too frequently. Doan's Kidney Pills, obtained at A. G. Luken & Co.'s Drug Store, cured me and at that time. I publicly recommended them.

The abolition of the horrid rite of widow burning In India was decreed by the British authorities in 1820. The dreadful practice was found there by the Macedonians under Alexander the Great 300 years before Christ, and for more than twenty-one long, weary ceuturles did it repeat its almost inconceivable torture and agony uon the women of India. The sacrifice, while not actually forced on the wife, was so strongly insisted on by public opinion that it amounted to a law, and its victims were legion. Scores of widows were often burned upon the funeral pile of a single rajah. In Bengal, the head center of the monstrosity, thousands were sacrificed annually, and the figure for all India was appalling. The millions of widowed women Were completely at the mercy of the remorseless superstition of the times. The ministers of Brahmanism told the widow that her sacrifice was necessary as a means of her own happiness and that of her husband in the future state, and oftener than otherwise she consented to be burned along with the dead body of ber husband. Unless she did this she was covered with the maledictions and curses of the people, was virtually outlawed and unceremoniously cast outside the pale of human sympathy and consideration and had to spend the rest of her days In degradation and wretchedness. It was death on the funeral pile of her husband or a living death of contumely and shame, of loneliness and misery. The women of India can never discharge their debt of gratitude to England for the abolition of the suttee. New York American. Lost and Found. "Almost too strsmge to be true." said a woman who bad lost and found again a piece of jewelry a few days ago. On. arriving at ber husband's office in the Wall street district she discovered that an amethyst was missing from an ornament which she wore. The prongs which held it had evidently worn away, and the stone was given up for lost She went on a shopping tour and when leaving the Seventysecond street subway station on her way horn dropped her muff. ' She stooped to pick it up and close to one ef the iron pillars saw ber lost amethyst "I was so glad to find it," she said, "but people don't believe the story.

W SURGEONS' FEES. Pretty Big Sometimes, but Then There Is Another Point ef View. I have a warm spot in my heart for the big American, surgeons, say a writer in the New York Telegraph, and because of regular attendance for years at some of the most famous clinics in this and other cities I have been a witness of their onadvertised chari

tiesacts of mercy and kindness which were never beard of outside the walls of the hospitals they honor by their services. I knew a wealthy man whose daughter was suddenly stricken and whose life was saved by the attending surgeon. His fee was $25,000. jStraightway the father emitted a wail. "It's robbery .M he said. The surgeon stood firm. "Your daughter's life is worth $25,000 to you," be countered. There was no denial. "Well, this fee means that I can operate on fifty persons without any charge, and if you don't like it you can force me to sue. but I will get it without a suit or you will stand a lot of publicity." And he got the money without recourse to a court of law. It is safe to mark it down when you see a story of some great surgeon who has charged a high fee that there are many of his patients enjoying good health and relief from pain because be charged them nothing at alL THE CLANRICARDE PLAQUE. A Famous 8eecimn of the Sixteenth Century Goldsmith's Art One of the greatest cinquecento jewels in the world ls the Clanricarde plaque, owned by Lord Clanricarde, who is known as the "hermit peer" and who claims direct descent from the kings of Connaught. He guards with jealous care this precious example of the goldsmith's art, keeping it safe from possible thieves and the common gaze in a bank vault, to which he goes occasionally with great secrecy to feast his eyes upon its magnificence. Some years ago, by royal request he lent it to an art exhibition In London, where it was admired and coveted by some of the greatest , connoisseurs of Europe. Ths huge disk . is as delicately wrought ns a spider's web aud represents the figure of Hercules wielding a diamond sword. The sword blade is composed of a mass of perfectly matched steel white stones, and a superb blue diamond scintillates from the hilt The present owner inherited it fvom bis mother, who was a Miss Canning before . her marriage to the Irish lord, and the plaque ls practically priceless. Aside from its value to collectors and Its worth as a specimen of rare and exquisite art. it is incrusted with a fortune in jewels. New York PreM.
