around, while, he prays for deliverance from the utterance* of indiscreet friends. •THP. appointment of Elkins to a cabinet position doesn't seem to meet with the hearty approval of any considerable Dumber of Democrats, but as President Harrison isn't running bis admlnlstra tion with any expectation of pleasing Democratic politicians their kick will be taken at what it is worth—nothing.
from Chili says that the
people of that country are satisfied with tbe course pursued by their government in relation to tbe warship Baltimore affair. By tbe time this country gets through with them tbey will be still better satisfied—that tbey had better not fool with tbe business end of Uncle Sam's machinery.
A new industry was discovered in New York the other day. It was nothing less than a factory at which old horses were converted into bologna sausage and smoked beef. Government officers pounced upon tbe concern and stopped its operation. It is not expected that there will be any famine in corsequeued, as thete is still an unlimited supply of canines in sight.
CosmDEitaiu.r opposition to the reelection of Quay to the United States senate has developed In Pennsylvania. The great moral reformers, who think there is nothiug on this earth good enough for them, have organized a campaign agslnnt him, and thoreln lies Mr. Quay's strongest element of success. The political booms of the truly good, like themselves, are always gathered to their fathers at

chairman of the
national Republican committee has taken the trouble to deny the soft impeachment that he is fortho renomloation of Mr. Harrison. He doesn't forget how pershteutly the president pushed him aside when his friends urged him for a cabinet position. Olarkson has a good memory, and if Harrison is nominated next year it would not be surprising to see the Iowa statesman retire temporarly from politics, _________________
speaking of the confirmation of Judge Woods to a seat on the circuit bench, Senator Voorhecs «ny»: "You could not find, I think, Democrat who will vote for his confirmation If you searched for him with a microscope." It has often been asserted that the Democrats had some very small men in the 8enate, but thin is the first time that a member of that distinguished body has dared assert that they are small to the extent of being beyond microscopical discovery,
TtJK Blaine followers are becoming discouraged over the sphynx like silence of the secretary of stale, and as there is every reason to believe that he will net accept the nomination they are looking around for another candidate. Anefiert is being made to launch a .Sherman boom on a financial platform and let the tarStl take a rest for one campaign. Realising that with Blaine out of the way the nomination of Harrison is a foregone conclusion, the Ohio icicle is serenely retki nt.
TllKlut seem* likely to le a ron- in the Senate over I' recem appointments by the president «»f the jud«e« of the new United State* nirt. Krom Pennsylvania he nominated a 1 Vtmvrat named (Jeorge M. 1AII««,

a fear that the present con
gress In a fit of reckl«» economy will sieriousJy interfere with the naval improvements which have been going on for seveml years, by cutting down the appropriattetta. It is to be hoped the fear will not be realised. There is no nation la the world so poorly equipped at sea as this, nor Is there another nation to wbich a first ei*» nary could be of more service. In addition there is no Other eountry s*» well able financially to afford a good navy. In view of thase fact* the United States should hare a good navy, and the party who stands In its way will make no friends by so doing.

triumpe. He was a free soiler when border ruffianism terrorized the territory, and at the outbreak of the war was one of the first to enlist, serving his country efficiently. During his senatorial career he has always been for his state first and foremost! and no man was ever held in higher esteem by an appreciative constituency. So great was his popularity that when last elected by the Kansas legislature tbe Democratic mem bers all voted for him. His life was a busy one, and was a shining example of the great possibilities onder this government. From the common school he went to tbe printers' case^fnam tted to the constitutional convention, and from there to the legislature from the legislature to the army, where be rose to the rank of colonel from the army back to the legislature at the close of tbe war, and then to tbe United States senate, where he sot only distinguished himself, but was the pride of his state.
THE
New York state commissioners of tbe World's Colombian exposition gave a grand banquet at Delmonico's last Monday night to consider the state's interest and duty in resrard to the matter. As a feast the aflhir was a success, and the speech of Cbauncey Depew was fully up to that gentleman's standard of excellence, but tbe associated press report doesn't speak of any enthusiasm over tbe exposition. The trutb of the matter is New York is jealous of her western rival^Jind thus far has lost no opportunity to knife the exposition but just tbe same it will be a success, as all western enterprises are, and Chicago will continue to grow.
THJ£RE
seems to be some difficulty in
selecting a successor to Senator Plumb. Tbe brilliant Ingalls is spoken of, but bis erratic course of late hardly entitles him to tbe place. Tbe Kansas statesman who most closely resembles the lamented Plumb is Judge Samuel R. Peters, wbo represented tbe "Big Seventh" Kansas district for several terms in congress, and wbo retired in 1890. There are many points of resemblance between tbe two men, being great friends and always workiug together in tbe same channel to attain the same ends, aDd by similar methods. Peters is a man of much more than ordinary ability, and with great capacity and willingness to work. He might not make so much noise as some senators, but would always be looking out for the interests of Kansas.
THBKE
is at least one tboatrical mana
ger in the country who fully recognizes the power and influence of the press. He is Richard Mansfield, aud in ordering his ngenls to discontinue all kinds of lithograph and printing for use iu win dows and on walls and to confine all advertising exclusively to the newspapers, says: "The Influence and tremendous power of tbe press as an adyertlslng medium is making itself felt more and more every day, both in {business and theatrical circles. A man who does not read the newspaper never attends the theater," says Mr. Mansfield. "Tbe weekly expenditure for printing at a low average is$lf0, which makes for a season of forty weeks ft5,000. In event of one hundrod companies adopting my sj'stem, which is a small ratio of the number of companies on tbe roat', it would givo to the newspapers throughout the country a yearly revenue of $600,000, which, I am satisfied, would bring greater and more satisfactory results, both to the theater-going public and thejatiractious." It is gratifying to know that Mr. Mansfield entertains suoh a high opinion of the press as an advertising medium, and it is a pity that he cannot spare a little time to come out west and pound a few Ideas of gentlemanly conduct and good sense luto heads which could accomplish moro good as mauls in the hands of rail splitters, than on the shoulders of men who imagine they are theatrical managers.

A NOVKL FOR GIRLS.
William Dean Howella to Write a Story Especially for Girla.
It is said that Mr. Howella, who is perhaps the foremost of living American novelists, has long hsd in mind a story of American girl-life, which he believes will be the best piece of work he has ever done. Tbe great novelist has now been induced to write out the story, and at present he is at work upon It. It is a novel unlike any which Mr. Ho wells has ever written. It deals entirely with the straggles of a Western girl who goes to New York, and the story will have about it all the flavor which attaches to a tale of city life with a young girl as the central heroine. Heretofore all of Mr. Howells' novels have gone to the Hmrpers hut this special girls* novel will be printed during lS92in 71b Ladim* Mime Scmrmaiy&t I hitadelpbia, the publishers of which have bought Use excluaive ngbts to the story frr.m Mr. Howells.

SATURDAY EVENING MATT,
How I Mad* Xjr Start.
Too must have lots of boy readers who would like to hear of my experience and how I started in business. I am 14 years old, and my father is dead and my mother is an invalid, so I had to leave school and earn some money. I saw in your paper the experience of William Evans, and how he made money plating kniyes, forks and spoons, and I thought I would try the plating business, so I» sent to H. F. Delne & Co., Columbus, Ohio, and got a $3 Lightning Plater. I came by express and is a beautify machine. In one week I did ft3 of work and last week I was sick,' only made fll. The .price receiv^ _- plating is nearly all profit and the work i,
