He hanges which threaten a yeratic majority the next House. is to be feared. Kerr aking for the demo- , feels cheered up to the | point of enthusiasm. His reports are rosy | as the morn. A democratic House seems the likeliest thing in the world to him. There was, he admits, a period of depres- sion, but that has passed. The people are now aroused and the drift is all to the democracy. Each man, it will be observed, expresses himself in a way calculated to benefit his party. The republicans have really been flying too high in their calculations, and need a word of warning. Strong as they may be, they yet will have to work for what they get this year. Majorities are nowhere growing on trees. And so they had better heed their leader and wake up, even if his face ts a ttle longer than the occasion would seem to warrant. Mr. Kerr's extreme cheerfulness like- wise meets the democratic demand. The gloom on that side has been so dense it cannot be lightened by any ordinary means. For Mr. Kerr simply to have said that the prospect had grown brighter than at one time would not have accomplished any re- sults. The democrats would not have heeded that, for it would have meant noth- ing encouraging. So he announces a sun- burst, and fixes general attention. It 1s still true, however, that the political manager proposes and the voter disposes. ——___+ +e — The B. and 0. Situation. It is no easy matter to get at the exact condition of affairs through the haze of un- certainty and contradictions which sur- rounds the deal for the control of the Bal- timore and Ohio rallroad. The infusion of new blood and capital from the west is the most interesting and significant feature, for the men whose names are mentioned in connection with the transaction are all men of vast resources; but they are men who are accustomed to getting large and healthy returns mak from any investments It is a certainty that they would have invested any such sum as they ‘d with doing unless they could @ promise of dividends in the near future. This very fact is one of the most hopeful signs about the deal. The road is naturally one of the most valuable pieces of property in the United States. Its re- sources are enormous, and the section of country through which it runs is among the richest in the country. When its af- fairs are finally straightened out and the Management 1s in a condition at last to carry out the needed changes, many of which have already been planned, the road they may will doubtless take its proper place again among the best dividend-paying roads in the United States. ——__~+ «+ Color Photography. The announcement comes from Chicago that a man in that city has at last discov- ered the art of color photography. Similar announcements have been made with more or less regularity for a good many years, but none of the methods hitherto discov- ered ever seemed to be of any value. About a decade ago a handsome photo- graph in colors was shown, the picture of a brilliant-hued Japanese vase then in the Possession of a famous New York collector, but, whether it was really a color photo- graph or merely a colored photograph, nothing more was ever heard of the par- ticular method by which it was claimed this picture was made. The story that comes now from Chicago appears to have a good deal more than the usual foundation in fact, and according to it the method has been subjected to many and severe tests and has proven a success in every instance. It is to be hoped that the problem, which has for more than a quarter of a century been attacked from all sides by chemists and photographers, has at last been suived. The art of coior photography, if it can be perfected and made practicable, in addition to its value in portraiture, will revolution- ize the work of book and magazine illustra- tion. The lithographer’s stone wiil be su- perseded and pictures, true to life in color as well as line, will be within reach of every one. What a boon to the world it would be if the works of the great masters could be reproduced in such a way! —___ + + = —_____ Tippling Ether. The Russians, who are widely regarded as @ class as inveterate tppiers, are now charged with the invention of a new means of satisfying the thirst for stimulating forms of alcohol. Ether is said to be so Widely used by the Russian peasants in certain districts that the atmosphere is thickly impregnated with the fumes of this Volatie liquid on market days, when the people assemble in large numbers.

In his recommendation to the War De- partment that such Cuban troops as are willing to relinquish all connection with the Cuban army be given employment upon various works undertaken by the United States at Santiago, Gen. Lawton seems to have hit upon at least @ partial solution of @ problem which is surrounded with a good many difficulties. He does not favor their use in policing either the city or province, but 1s, on the contrary, opposed to that idea. If Gen. Lawton’s suggestion is car- ried out it will doubtless provide work for a large number of men who from long service in the army under trying surroundings might be said to have got out of the habit of tuking care of themselves in the ordi- nary vocations of life. The whole island has become so thoroughly demoralized through the long continuance of the war that it will probably take years, rather than months, for the country and the peo- ple to get back to the conditions which ex- isted before the attempt was made to throw off the Spanish yoke. The proposition presented by Gen. Lawton ts unsatisfactory only because it does not go far enough. It is ifkely that if a bill were introduced in Congress this winter providing for the en- listment of regiments of Cubans it would meet with more favorable consideration than did the effort which was made last winter to pass a bill allowing the recruit- ing of Cubans in the army of the United States. At that time it was thought that such action would give offense to the Amer- ican volunteers who were very anxious to See service in Cuba themselves. The Amer- ican soldiers, regulars and volunteers, are not as anxious to go to Cuba now ag they were a few months ago. They would pre- fer to have someone else go, and there is a noticeable lack of enthusiasm on the part of the men when any company or regiment is mentioned for service on the isJand. In all probability the work of the army of oc- cupation will not be severe, but it will ke trying amd stupid, and it is not the sort of work for which the volunteers enlisted and they have no taste for it. The Cubans who have seen service during their war with Spain are, on the contrary, admirably suited for just such work, especially if they are under the command of experienced American army officers. In the first place they are acclimated and, after the hard- ships and dangers through which they have gone during the past few years, they would look upon garrison life and the ordinary duties of an army of occupation as pleasant and attractive in the extreme. No one claims that they are as good soldiers as those who have gone or would go from the United States, but they would answer every Purpose and under the changed conditions would probably approximate a good deal nearer to our own military ideals than they have ever been able to do before. ——— +e = —__ A croquet tournament is rather a mild substitute with which to get along until the foot ball season.

Frem the Lewiston Journal, Ex-Representative Bynum, who has re- signed the chairmanship of the national committee of the gold democrats, feels on the money question just as do thousands of other sound-money democrats. He believes it to be the duty of such democrats to sup- port the republican party, so as to make defeat of the free silverites as overwhelm- ing as possible. Firing ballots into the air is self-disfranchisement. egg The Strongest Candidate. From the Omaha Bee. If elected governor of New York, there tan be no doubt that Col.

H. Stone of Brightwood, “is yefy similar to that of 1895-96, when the death rate from typhoid fever here in the District was the highest ever known, perhaps. In that season, as in this, there was @ very wet spring, followed by a long, dry and very warm summer, conditions most favorable for the disease, “The people of the District should now take still greater precautions, because the danger, in my opinion, is much greater now than during the past two years. Typhoid fever as a rule makes its appearance here in June, and the number of cases gradually increase until they are taore numerous in September and October. Therefore, now is ihe time when our people should be more cautious and vigilant.

Cooks who don’t know about this Mudge Patent Preserving Process are missing the best means of put- ting up the winter's supply of fruits —perhaps causing themselves end- less trouble and disappointment. Ordinary preserving _ methods seem entirely out of place when once you've tried the “Mudge Can- ner”--which isn’t difficult to use—but very much easier, less laborious than the old way. The natural color of the fresh, ripe fruit is retained—as well as the delicate flavor and plump form found only when it is taken from the tree.

Hard to understand why some folks will wear common- place footwear when Rich’s shoes are here—within easy reach of every one. They're growing fewer all the time, though—more “Rich” foot- wear sold now than ever. Our styles are the styles taken up by all fashionable folk. The vast majority of the fashionables wouldn't think of wearing any other sort. We get our styles direct from the foremost makers of America—those whose crea- tions set the footwear fashions. We control these styles as far as the capital city is concerned —in fact only a small circle of stores—one in each large city —enjoys the sale of them. So much for exclusiveness. When it comes to price you pay no more than what such high grade footwear is actual- ly worth. Not as much in the end as for inferior qualities. There’s a certain individual- ity about the new fall and win- ter styles that must prove es- pecially attractive to every particular person. Those who have already been here speak in no uncertain terms of praise of our splendid showing. In- spect them—give us your opinion. We want mothers to know that the children’s school shoes can be bought to best advantage here—where quali- ties are indelibly stamped with bestness—where prices are reasonable. Come here for school shoes and you'll find the yearly shoe bills much les- sened. What would you do for the proper footwear for enjoying fall sports if you didn’t have our admirable stock to draw upon?
