ae a a The Pevali--Review. Dy 'E. 'Kitey. GRAND RAPIDS -° ‘MINNESOTA. Let us add to the suggestion Ce Judge Northrup of Syracuse, that con- victs be obliged to wear no distinctive garb, the provision that they shall ap- pear only in @ress suits in the even ing. e A @aughter of Sorosis advises as a relief from mental strain the reading of Mr. Howells, while another daugh- ter suggests football. Still another ‘daughter shrieks “Seek equilibriums!” whatever that may be. Thus the ef- fort of ‘thts "heavenly body to relieve mental strain has brought about a state of’chaos that is'more melancholy than the original trouble and promises large ailditions to the asylums. The -shooting of Ruiz, peace com- missioner “from Blanco to Aranguren, at first glance looks like the assassina- tion ofa bearer of the white flag; but the’commissioner who has instructions to bribe fs: meaner than any spy, and knows, as Ruiz said of himself, that he is going to his own death. ‘There was ‘great Villainy in Weyler as 80V- ernor-general; but his admiration of duplicity may oblige him to call his successor his lord and master. “Bad spelling,” says a scientist, “is a disease.” It may be an inheritance also. ‘It is’ not, however, necessarily ‘evidence of ignorance. There are peo- ple without an ear for music, and there vare those who have no ear for spelling. They may be thoroughly educated in other respects, and never be able to learn to spell correctly off-hand except as to words in constant use, and they may even have to relearn them every day. Let us remember that in many cases they are the victims not of ig- ‘norance but of an infirmity. A Boston lady says, giving advice to her too-retiring sisters, “A shrink- ing sélf-effacement can in time be overcome by throwing out the chest and carrying the head high in a regal attitude of self-confidence.” Yet it is buncombe. It is fraud. A regal at- titude-of sélf-confidence is utterly im- possible ‘to a shrinking self-efface- ment. The trouble is that somebody always comes up to it and remarks “Boo!” in a rude manner, and imme- diately the regal attitude closes itself against’ the world like a_ sensitive plant. “No, dear lady; you can‘t make marble out of cream. The..war reminiscences of the late Charles .A. Dana, now in course of publication in one of the magazines, establish a fact that every person to whom ‘profanity is an offense will be glad to hear. Mr. Dana saw much of General Grant during the most per- plexing period of the civil war, and he asserts that he never heard the great Union leader utter a profane word. Mr. Dana ‘himself was for many years a tireless worker in a field in which pro- fanity’ds common. ‘Every man who -enjoyed:'the privilege of working near him will testify that in the midst of the exciting requirements of his duties Mr. Dana was guiltless of the sin and vulgarity of profanity. The arguments for supporting the »statement that we live in a great coun- try include one based>on the statistics of rainfall. A recent official document declares that rain probably falls every +day in'the year at one point or another in the United States. Some of the coun- ‘tries whose governments make a great -stir in the. world mightialmost be wet eéown ~with a good-sized ‘American thunder-shower. We have territory large enough for several-contemporane- ous performances of thisssert. »Meas- ured by rain or sunshine, the weather assets of ‘the United States at. any given moment are alike munifieent,and impressive. As a part of the eymula- vtive-eyidence.to the truthsef this asser- tion, it may!be said that; there! isynot :a waking moment, in all; probability, in which an,embrella is not being»ber- wowed..within,our borders,:to. keep, off the:rain or the sunshine. ; An -excellent ; illustration _of :Shake- wpeare’'s oft-quoted “goal .invevery- thing” is afforded by the disposition of “the revenue derived by the Mrench gov- ernment ‘from ithe tax on ibetting .at herse-races, The proceeds jf the tax Yast year,exceeded seven anil.a half million frames, or gore tham @:million and a half.dollars Among the good objects to which this money was ap- propriated were: Paris e¢hwtities, seventy-five thousand dollars; gravin- cial hospitals, three byindred thousand dollars; institutions making reseanches into methods ef curing or preventing consumption, twenty-five thousand épl- Jars; and sixteen thousand dollars for the erection of a hall for charity meet- ings im Constantinople. It is a pity that betting cannot be taxed out of existence; since that is mot possible, the next best thing is te make the gamblers pay for good objacts as far | as the money that can be squeezed out of them will go. Twelve thousend women stenograph- ers and typewriters are at present em- ployed in Chicago, which force will be augmented before spring by at least a thousand graduates from commercial colleges and neighboring loealities. The outleok does not seem to beckon; yet while five dollars a week is a frequent salary, many positions of from sixty to sevexty-five dollars a month go beg- ging foy want of competent women to fil] them, One rule holds for all places and all professions; to do fairly well is to etruggie with the crowd, but for jer who excels there is always room.

Representative Otis ,Who Claims to Have Been Offered a Bribe to Vote for Senator Hanna, and His At- torney, T. C. Campbell, Give Testi- mony Before the Investigating Committce—Nothing to Indicate That Har na Was Connected With Boyce. Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 30.—The two star witnesses in the alleged senatorial bribery investigation were examined by the senate investigating committee yesterday. They are Representative J. C. Otis of Hamilton county, who claims to have been offered a bribe to vote for Senator Hanna, and Thomas C. Campbell, attorney, who acted as the legal representative of Otis. ‘There was nothing in the testimony of either witness to even indicate that Senator Hanna, Maj. Dick or Maj. Rathbone had ‘any connection with Gen. Boyce, through whom it is claimed the alleged negotlations were conducted. In fact, Attorney Campbell, who came all the way from New York to testify, took occasion to say he did not believe Sen- ator Hanna was interested or knew Boyce. Moreover, Boyce, himself, had declared to Campbell that he did not know Hanna, and that if his per- ‘sonal wishes were consulted he would ‘prefer to see him defeated. Campbell produced a roll of bills in denomina- tions of $100 and $500, aggregating ‘$11,750, which he declared Boyce had paid to him during the negotiations. Representative Otis testified that he had met Harry Boyce in Cincinnati ‘first on Jan. 7,” About 11 o'clock on the morning of that day he received a ‘long distance telephone message from ‘aman at the Great Southern hotel in ‘Cdlumbus, who said he was Gen. Boyce, that he had come on from New York and wished to see him on im- portant business. Mr. Otis told him ‘that if he would come to Cincinnati he could see him. Between 5 and 6 o'dlock Otis went to the Gibson house and ‘to Boyce’s room, 226. He met Boyce and the latter said to him that though he was a stranger to Otis he wished to see him on very important business, that he represented J. Pier- pont Morgan of New York; that Mr. Morgan had’ great interests in Ohio which ‘he desired to have looked after, and ‘that he was also a friend of C. C. Shane of New York. During the con- versation the senatorial matter was touched upon, and Boyce asked as to Hanna’s chances, to which Otis an- swered that he did not think them ‘very good. Boyce said that that night or the following night Mr. Shane was to have an interview with President McKinley; that both the president and Mr. Shane were interested in the Ohio situation, specially the former. Then it was that Mr. Otis decided that he needed a lawyer and went to see Mr. Campbell. Finally Boyce and Camp- bell were introduced and most of the business after that was transacted be- tween them. Otis said that nothing was said about Dick or Hollenbeck or Daugherty or Maj. Rathbone, and that Boyce did not proclaim that he came as the agent of Senator Hanna or Hanna ‘had any connection with the matter. An adjournment was taken until afternoon, when T. C. Campbell of ‘New York and Cincinnati, who repre- sented Otis as an attorney, was ex- amined. FIREMEN WORKED HARD.
