MRS. MARY ELLEN LEASE has found a new field open to her. She has become the agent of a life insurance company in Kansas. If quantity of talk, rather than quality, made a good insurance agent, Mrs. Lease would he an overwhelming

ONE of Uncle Sam's battleships, the Maine, has been lying in the harbor at Havana since last Tuesday morning, and the haughty dons haven't blown her out of the water yet. The kind of blowing the dons indulge in will do no damage beyond raising a breeze.

POLITICS is a queer thing. It is the only phase of life in which a man can be(dead while living, and yet not know it. Witness, for instance, the case of Mayor McKisson, of Cleveland, who talks about contesting Mark Hanna's seat in the United States Senate.

GOVERNOR PINGRKE is having his quarterly task of telling all he knows and more too, and is not confining his efforts to his own state. There is a whole lot of truth in many things that Pingree says, and if he could just rid himself of the idea that he is the whole of his party in Michigan he might be able to do a great deal more ^ood.

THE fiftieth anniversary of the discovery of gold in California, is being celebrated in that state this week, and the surviving old '49-ers, there and elsewhere, are living over again those troublous times. It was this discovery that so increased the population of the state as to lead to its admission to the union two years later, in September, 1850.

THE gayety of nations wiU receive an important impetus in Georgia this fall, where it is announced that Populist Tom Watson, who assisted in making the dual tail to the Bryan kite in 1890, will be the Populist candidate for Governor. All the mean things Mr. WatSon will say about his former party associates will not bear reproduction in print.

Ex-, BUT not next, President Cleveland and Senator Morgan are using the columns of the daily papers to tell what they think of each other, the result of a statement by the senator that Mr. Cleveland was at one time in favor of the annexation of Hawaii. Here is one case where the public will believe the statements of both parties to the discussion.

THKY certainly know how to preserve the dignity of the courts out in Missouri. One day this week a lawyer reflected on the action of a Missouri judge for fining him for contempt. The judge immediately adjourned court hit the lawyer over the head with a poker to emphasize his fine, and as the lawyer was carried out of court resumed proceedings. Indiana judges who have to contend with obstreperous lawyers are recommended to try the poker treatment as practiced in Missouri.

THE factional fight among the Mary land Republicans, which like that in Ohio gave promise for a time of resulting in the defeat of the regular caucus nominee for United States senator from that state to succeed Senator Gorman, was ended this week in the elect ion of Judge Louis ExMcComas, who was the choice of the caucus for the sehatorship. He is at present a member of the Supreme court of the District of Columbia, to which he wai appointed by President Harrison, and is said to be eminently qualified for the position to which he has been elevated. He is a native of Maryland and fifty-two years of age. He will take his seat as senator on the Sd of March, 181WK

NOT content with the "tambourine players" and "serpentine dauces" of the campaign of ISOtS, the silver men are going to put a dramatic company on the road to present a lurid play entitled "The Curse of Gold," which is expected to do for the gold standard what "Uncle Tom's Cabin" did for slavery. A company entitled "The American Drama Company*' has been incorporated for the purpose of putting this play on the road for the purpose named. A striking scene in the play is where the hero delivers Mr. Bryan's famous "cross of gold" speech that set the Chicago convention wild, and if the compauy can only secure Mr. Bryan for the star part they will

THF.RK is going to be a very strong effort made to pass a law to require the publication of the entire list of pensioners of the government, and the effort is being made apparently for the purpose of putting the administration supporters in a position of opposing all efforts looking to a revision of the pension lists. Senator Cannon, of Utah, has prepared a bill to this effect, directing the secretary of the interior to prepare at once a list of all pensioners whose names are now on the rolls, the date of their entrance into the service, when discharged, present postoffice address, nature of injuries, date of increases of pensions, etc., and in case of widows and orphans now drawing pen* si on*, the names of those on whose account drawn, with all information relative to the same. The lists are to be prepared in

flBlli

pamphlet shape for each state and territory and furnished to every newspaper in the country, whether the papers solicit them or not. It does not seem that there can be any harm in, the publication of a list of those who draw pensions from the government. It is claimed that many abuses exist in the payment of pensions, and no doubt they do, but the best way to disclose these abuses, and protect the interests of those who are legally and justly enjoying them would be by the publication Of such a list. If abases exist they can be corrected without in any way disturbing those v/ho draw them rightly, nor will the publication in any way attack the principle of giving pensions to those who have sustained injuries or contracted diseases in the service of their country.

THE United States Senate has a committee investigating the manner of enforcement of the civil service laws, and at one session this week it was developed that the chairman of the civil service commission had sent for a clerk of the commission. who had been subpoenaed to testify before the committee, and in a manner intimidated him in an effort to find out what the witness would testify to before the committee, in order that he might answer it. If a "spoilsman," as those Who oppose the present civil service system have been called, had been guilty' of such a' proceeding as this, it is likely that all the billingsgate to which a mugwump reformer can turn his tongue—and that is a great deal—would have been used against him, but that one of the "apostles of sweetness and truth" has been guilty of it, arguments will no doubt be advanced to establish his extreme saintliness.

PRESIDENT MCKINLEY has not wavered in his support of sound money, if we may judge from his speech before the Manufacturers' association of the United States at New York Thursday night, where he was the guest of honor. Could anything be more convincing of his position on the financial question than the following extract from his speech: "There is another duty resting upon the national government—to coin money and regulate the value thereof. This duty requires that our government shall regulate the value of its money by the highest standards of commercial honesty and national honor The money of the United States is and must forever be unquestioned at\d unassailable. If doubts remain they must be removed. If weak places are discovered they must be strengthened. Nothing should ever tempt us—nothing ever will tempt us—to scalq down the sacred debt of the nation through a legal technicality. Whatever may be the language of the contract, the United States will discharge all its obligations in the currency recognized as the best throughout the civilized world at the time of payment. Nor will we ever consent that the wages of labor or its frugal savings shall be scaled down by permitting payment in dollars of less value than the dollars accepted as the best in every enlightened nation of the earth."

THE last report of the Inter-State Commerce commission gives some interesting figures regarding the freight and passenger earnings of the railroads of this country. For the year ending June 30th, 1897, the railways of the United States carried over 18,000,000,000 passengers one mile They also carried 95,000,000,000 tons of freight one mile. The total amount paid in dividends on stock was $88,000,000 in round numbers. Of the total earnings of the railways about 70 per cent, came from freight service and 30 per cent, from passenger service. Of the $88,000,000 paid in dividends 70 per cent, or $61,600,000, was profit on freight service and $26,400,000 was profit on passenger service, or $62,000,000 and $26,000,000, in round numbers. Taking these figures the Railway Age figures out in a most interesting manner the vast volume of business a modern railway system is forced to handle to make a few cents profit, says the Age: "By dividing the passenger profit into the number of passengers carried (13,000,000,000) we find that the railways had to carry a passenger 500 miles in order to earn $1 of profit, or five miles to earn 1 cent. Their average profit, therefore, was less than two-tenths of 1 cent for parrying a passenger (and his baggage) one mile. "By dividing the freight profit into the freight mileage (95,000,000,000) we find that the railways had to carry one ton of freight 1,530 miles in order to earn $1, or over 15 miles to earn I cent. The average profit, therefore, was less than one-fifteenth of a cent for carrying a ton of freight (besides loading and unloading it) one mile."

THE futility of strikes in the settlement of labor disputes has again been demonstrated in the most positive manner, this time in England, where one of the best organized and best directed strikes on record, has been lost after a contest of over a year. We have had it demonstrated in this country that strikes do not reach the end desired in the majority of cases, but. there was never a strike so thoroughly organized here as that jnst ended in England. It was that of one of the most intelligent and best paid classes of organized labor, the engineers of Great Britian. It was so extensive, affecting the motive power of nearly all the factories of every kind in the United Kingdom, that it seemed impossible for the employers to hold out against it. The issue was not so much on wages ason the limitations of the hours of labor and upon the regulations of all questions by general comittees of the union. It was against this mainly that the manufacturers took their stand, insisting upon the right of each employer to deal directly with his own people. The union leaders were equally determined to maintain their own power, and many branches of industry have been practically tied up in consequence. In an issue of endurance, capital has mainly the advantage of labor, and at length the men who were tired of idleness had forced the leaders to succumb and they are going back to work upon substantially the old terms. Meanwhile they have not only lost a year's wages, but have so for crippled the maaufactures of the United Kingdom in various branches that not a little trade has been!

permanently lost and their employers are less able to give them work and wages now than they were a year ago. This usual result of strikes is more conspicuous in this instance because the strike had more than the usual advantages that made the experiment more thau usually conclusive. The engineers no doubt had grievances that were strong, and deserved success. It is not often that such an intelligent body of men can agree so fervently on anyoae subject unless there be something to unite them/but with such a powe.'ful organization with funds and leaders, after a stubborn fight of more than a year 'they have been compelled to surrender, and find not only themselves but their employers, in much worse shape than when the strike began. The wort feature of the case is that the employers, feeling sore over the losses that have been forced upon them, can take almost any steps they desire to recuperate their losses, such as reducing wages and lengthening hours, and do it with impunity for they realize that the power of the organization is broken, and they can do almost as they choose. To the workmen that is the worst result of the strike.

THE presence in this country as a guest of the nation of President Dole, of the Hawaiian republic, calls attention to the remarkable coincidence that the only foreign ruler ever before entertained by the United States was Kalakua, the last king of Hawaii, and the second the first president of the republic of Hawaii. The Emperor Dom Pedro, of Brazil, visited the United States, not as the nation's guest, or traveling in his royal character, but incognitso, registering under a family title. He was entertained by the president, however, and the cabinet. The visit of Kalakau was planned a year in advance, and after the manner of European monarchs, who signify their intention of making a royal visit and in return, diplomatic or royal courtesy requires they must be invited to come. King Kalaukau expressed the desire to visit the United States at the same time it was" known that if he came, it would be as the nation's guest, with all expenses defrayed on this side. After much polite diplomacy everything was arranged to his liking, and he came, with a large party, and was entertained as the nation's guest, all expenses being defrayed by congressional appropriations. Subsequently, about ten years ago, Kalakaua's queen, Kapiolani, and his sister, then the Princess Liliuokalani, spent a week in Washington, when going to England to the Queen's first jubilee, but they were not guests of the United States, though entertained by the president. Among other distinguished guests of the nation have been the Prince of Wales, who was entertained by President Buchanan and the Grand Duke Alexis, of Russia, entertained by President Grant. During President Cleveland's last administration, the Princess Eulalie. representing the royal house of Spain, and the duke of Veragua, a descendant of Columbus, were guests of the nation, especially invited to the Columbian exposition. In the earlyhistory of the country Lafayette came to the United States as the nation's guest and was especially honored by congress.

She Was Bothered.

A pretty girl newly come to towrif from the Paeifio ooast went ont to dine in Massachusetts avenue. Dinner began with oysters on the half shell, and the oysters were extremely large. The Pacific coast girl's eyes opened wide when the oysters were set before her. She took up her fork, and then she laid it down. Her plate of oysters was taken away untouched. "Don't you like our eastern oysters?" asked the woman whom she is visiting as they were going home. "I didn't taste them," answered the girl. "To tell the truth—well, to tell the truth, I didn't know what to do with them. I was afraid it wasn't good form to cut them up, and I was afraid I'd choke if I tried to swallow them whole, so I had to let them go away. "=r Washington Post.

W. C. RISKARSON, G. p. A., Cincinnati.

A GIRL INVENTOR.

Sylvia was old enough to know that she ought to resist the fascination that was absorbing her best thoughts. She studied her lessons—all except arithmetic, which she loved—in a reluctant sort of way and reoited with a faroff look in her eyes. Sometimes that look came to her when she was talking with her girl friends, and she would forget what she had said a moment before, call people by wrong names, return wrong answers to questions and act alto gether so strangely that some observing girl would break out into a laugh, saying: "Sylvia, I believe you are crazy."

If Sylvia had been a boy, her strange reserve would have been readily understood by her family, and she would never have been permitted to remain so long undisturbed in the garret, but how could they suspect that a girl would be afflicted with the family craze for inventing something? This passion for studying mechanical devices had survived through three generations of Ringgolds, and it bad cost them a great deal of money and much sorrow and disappointment.

Sylvia knew the family story. Many a time she had heard about Grandfather Ringgold's pulley, which had never been completed. Then there was her Uncle Alexander, who repeated her grandfather's failure, spending money, but gaining nothing, and finally there was her Cousin Dick, whom half the people in town called Crazy Dick Ringgold, because he walked the streets trying to interest rich men in his impracticable patents.

The women of the Ringgold connection, one and all, had a horror of patents, beoause they h- 1 suffered so many privations from the failure and losses incident to them. No one knew these things better than Salvia.

How could she tell her mother or her Aunt Hester or her father or any one that her mind was on fire with t®e spirit of in vention and that she was trying to solve the. mystery of grandfather's pulley?

But the day of discovery was at hand It was house cleaning time, and Aunt Hester, while in the garret, came upon a remarkable mechanical contrivance of springs and wire and cords and bits of wood and brass and steel. She did not have to look twice to know what it mear She gave vent to her feelings by a little 6oream of surprise and dismay, which brought Mrs. Ringgold running up from the story below. "Oh, sister!" cried Aunt Hester tragically, pointing to the young girl's model. "Look! Sy'via has the fatal fever in hei blood—the curse of the Ringgolds!"

After awhile Sylvia came in from school. She knew in a moment that something had disturbed tbo family serenity and intuitively guessed what it was—her irfbdel had been found.

The next day she was taken out to the country to see what a change of scene would do for her. Uncle .Torold lived on a small farm that had formerly been a part of Grandfather Ringgold's estate. Sylvia had never visited there before, and she found everything very interesting. Her aunt took her out for a long ramble through the woods, and the two gathered autumn leaves and liohens and bunches of bright red berries. In a secluded corner of the woods Sylvia noticed a tall iron construction, which she thought resembled the observatory in the park at home, and she asked what it was. "Oh," said Aunt Rebecca,"with' a little sigh, "that is your poor grandfather's derrick. He had it erected that be might experiment with his pulley. Dear me, if jyour grandfather had let inventing alone, Jwe might all be*Hoh!" -.jr

Youse0,.4ufttj J^ebeqc^^e^moth^g^f 'the young girl's infatuation. Sylvia tried to' keep lier thoughts off the ^forbidden subject, but this was not easy with the top of grandfather's derriok in full view of her window. "I must examine it, "the girl said to herself one afternoon, and she went out by herself into the woods and looked at the derrick. It was just as her grandfather had left it years ago. There was an open box supported by four chains attached to a lever, which was Intended to be lifted by a spring,

the lifting had never been

accomplished, because grandfather's pulley would not 'Work." Sylvia lingered at the spot, thinking and comparing what she saw with what she had read. Why did not the spring work? Sho went out to look at it the next day, and the next.

One afternoon Sylvia was engaged at her fascinating occupation out in the woods. She bad made a clearing around the derrick, adjusted the machinery and supplied some pieces that vvero missing. She had stepped into the lifting box and, happening to pull a hanging cord above her head, she found herself suddenly hoisted. "Oh," she cried, "I've found it! Ilve found it!"

Up and up the box went, the old rope creaking and the scales of rust from the chains falling back on Sylvia's head. She was so happy that she had no thought of fear. Up and up she was carried, till she stepped out of the little car on to the top floor of the derrick. And hero, up in the air, Sylvia stood for five or ten glorious minutes, saying to herself, "I have completed grandfather's invention!" "Father will be proud of me now," ehe thought, "and mother will laugh, and Aunt Hester won't scold." And Sylvia herself laughed a little bit triumphantly as she stood on the high siructnre with the top of the trees nodding at her.

Presently she heard Aunt Rebecca's voice calling from the world below: "Sylvia, where are you? Supper's ready!" "I'm here," said Sylvia.

When Aunt Rebecca and Uncle Jerold saw her up on the top of the derrick waving her handkerchief, the sight filled them with consternation and almost took away their breath, and when she said, speaking down from her elevation, "I've found out what was the matter with grandfather's pulley," they soon learned the truth.

In due course of time the Ringgold pulley was patented, but only a few that saw it in operation several years ago at a great world's fair knew that a girl of 14 had perfected the invention.—Philadelphia Times.
