ON THE QUI VIVE.

And now they are trying to count onr old "friend, Uncle "Bill" Athon out of the I j^omiaation for county assessor because

Ithe tax law which provides for that officer, say* that to be qualified for assessors man mn^t have been a freeholder and resident householder for four years previous to the election or appointment. Constitutional lawyers have passed on the question, and the superabundance of opinion seems to be that a man cannot be disqualified from holding public office because he does not happen to be a real estate owner or a householder. As a matter of fact a man can be

President of these United States or governor of Indiana without owning afoot of real estate and it does seem that they are piling, It on pretty thick to require a man to possess greater qualifications to hold the petty office of county assessor than he must have to be president or governor. Uncle "Bill" is going to hold on to it, however, and the chances are that if he is elected that he will not be disturbed in his possession of the office.

The horse having escaped, the editor of the Gazette has locked the stable door and is endeavoring to create a great alarm over the escape, of which he was fully cognisant. In fact he saw the horse escstpe but didn't want to say anything about it for fear of disturbing somebody. The horse in question is the appropriation made by the city council for the arch at Eighth and Main streets, for theT. P. A. convention. It was well understood before hand that the city was to pay for that arch, but the Gazette made no protest against it when it was the time to protest, if at all. It might have offended some of the parties interested in the convention to make a fight on the matter, so action wo*.postponed until after the money had been spent, and then a great hue and cry is raised because of the "paternalism" displayed by the council. If the Gazette is sincere in its fight against the city appropriating any money except for direct benefit of the peoph, let it be honest and condemn the appropriations made every year for the G. A. R. for Decoration day, and let it condemn the appropriations for the benefit of the tornado sufferers. Our people are not supposed to be taxed for the benefit of flood sufferers, tornado sufferers, or for anything of that kind, and if it is honesty •of purpose rather than a desire to make a political point that inspires the Gazette in its present attitude, let it condemn these appropriations Uy the council for the purposes. Now is the time, too, for it to make a great fight against such appropriations.

They have been made and the money knnot lie turned back htto the city treasury— and the fight will have been forgotten by next election day.

The struggle for the position of United States Senator from' Indiana, in which every resident of this city is interested, assumed a new phase this week as a result of the vaulting ambition of one of the contestants, Charles \V. Fairbanks, who aspires to (and will probably) be temporary chairman of the St. Louis convention next week. This move on his part Is on a par with some of his political moves, aud is likely to result as injuriously to him as did his election to the position of delegate at large to the St. Louis convention, in which he escaped defeat by the arm west margin imaginable. Mr. Fairbanks' consuming ambition will burn him qp "ef he don't watch out-" Vigorous protests have been made by the friends of Mr. Me Keen against the apparent effort of Mr. Mclvinley's managers to take a hand in the senatorial fight in this state, but apparently without avail. They disclaim any desire to take sides in the senatorial fight, but w.Bl not change the programme, and Mr. Fairbanks will preside as temporary chairman. The effect of this will be contrary to that desired by Fairbanks, when he selected himself as chairman for the effect ou the people of IudiauH. in making it appear that he is the great "lam" of I udlana politics. It will against him, just as hi* paltry viery iu the state convention reacted against irn. Mr. Fairbanks will be beaten in the race for United States Senator, and the man who will defeat him will b« WH-

The time was when milder offenses than this,on the part erf others officers, called for summary action on the part of the commissioners. Why is it

The police arc going to enforce the bi cycle ordinance, but complain that they aro unable to stop the scorchers when they fly past. They have decided, however, to take a few shots at the flyers by attempting to bring them down with a fling of tln-Sr mace*. A few summary lessons, similar to one I witnessed In Chicago, would go a great way toward convincing some of the reckless riders that they will have to pay some attention to the law. I saw a policeman shove his mace through the wheel of a bicycle, whose rider was violating a city ordinance by a to carry a lamp on his wheel. TL-re were hardly enough spoke* left In the front wheel of the machine to oast a decent shadow, but It to safe to say the next time that man went out bteyviiag he carried a lamp. That's pretty severe treatment for a wheel, and It Is not likely to be practiced here, but the police should (to if something to make the wV-Jmen realise that the ordinance ma«t bi .-ueyed.

MY LADY'S SLEEVES.

Never was there a wider range for the choice in sleeves than now, and they play a far greater part in the becomingness of a toilet than one would think.

The ieg-o'-mutton sleeves, with many new embellishments, are seen. A charming model has the fullness of the lower arm caught into folds to fit the arm and held to above the elbow a number of small buttons decorate it.

A pretty fashion is to cover the entire lower arm with lace, filled in over the foundation to match the pouff. Another charming model of the empire has a flaring pouff springing from a fitted lower arm a band of embroidery joins the puff to the lower arm and gives a finished effect.

The "sectioned" bishop sleeve is wonderfully chick and is a favorite style for thin gowns of all description. It is cut in four portions, all of which are joined by bands of lace or openwork embroidery. A deep band of shirring fits it closely over the shoulder and again at the wrist, finished by a frill.

A slim figure looks much better in the full bishop sleeve or the big puff to the elbow than in either the leg-o'-mutton or empire, while a round svelte figure should eschew both of these former modes, as tending to make them appear heavy and bulky, taking away from the symmetrical lines of the figure.

UP-TO-DATE PHILOSOPHY,

There is no one in the world in as good a mition to make trouble as a friend. Let a wise man have good luck a few years and he will do as foolish things as anybody. *,

One pleasing thing about the political conventions is that they are not opened with original odes.

The market man puts the largest berri at the top because he has heard that there is more room there.

While dreaming of the rosy future don't forget to put camphor in the flannels that you will need when it comes.

There always seems to be in every town, no matter how small, one girl with hair 1 »ng that she makes a good goddess of liberty in a decoration day procession.

If the sweet girl graduate is going to have a fair chance at the monetary question in her essay, what is the'use of wait-* iug to have conventions?

Tlio Bright-Eyed Girl.

"(Jive me the bright-eyed girl" he said. The appellation was common enough. We know it meansagirl who has littleelse to charm the eyes of other people.

I couldn't give him this particular bright-eyed-girl, for she was not mine to dispose of—and, besides, the request was merely a figure of speech, an expression of personal taste. Had he been presented with the bright-eyed girl then and there he wouldn't have known what to do with her, being a respectable gentleman and encumbered with a family.

The bright-eyed girl is a human type that interests all men alike. Every man doesn't like her, it is true—especially if the doll baby type is in evidence. And the brighteyed girl is so quick to perceive the miserable weaknesses of mankind. When she is little she says things, don't you know. When she grows up she thinks things a good deal more embarrassing. You can easily see that she thinks them. She can't hide it without looking down at her feet or off up into the sky. Sometimes these things are about you. She doesn't mean to be impolite or to hurt your feelings she simply can't help it, even if she wanted to help It, which is a matter for fair doubt.

The bright eyed girl is a girl with a quickened soul and nearly always an alert understanding. Many women have education and culture and quick comprehension who do not come under the head where is found the bright-eyed girl. Their souls are stagnant. The sympathetic touch that stirs the mirrored depths in the bright-eyed girl Is strangled in their cold mentality. Conversation, that leaps from string to string as sweetly changing music from the skillfully challenged chord, so delightful with the bright-eyed girl, becomes with others a merely intellectual arrangement of words and sentences.

The bright-eyed girl is a positive qoantlty, albeit an unknown one. Whether stirred by passion or convinced intellectually. she is right there where yon can find her, sometimes when yon don't want to find her. Beauty fades, forms grow unshapely with age, but the bright eyes now glowing with the reflection of an enlarged soul, shine upon us from silvery hairs even more potently than they did in buoyant youth:
