and even allowing that it were possible
to use the committee as an auxiliary to
somebody's boom, which it is! not, no
one candidate controls a majority of it.
It is difficult to keep political secrets
in Washington.therefore it isn't surpris
ing that the fact should have leaked out
that Candidate MnTCinlev wrnta in Hon.
retary Foster imploring his aid to raise
money for his campaign. In this letter
McKinley was particularly bitter
against the nttsburg glass manufac
furers, who he said, had promised to
contribute $25,000. but had onlv iriven
$1,300. Mr. Foster's own tongue gave
iinsawHy. in spite or tne statement
of Chairman Clarke that the Republi
can National Committee would take
no part in any of the State campaigns
this year, it is known here that it has
already seut a large amount of money
to Ohio, and that it is now engaged in
raising more, intended for the same
destination. Republicans, near to the
committee have boasted also that they
would buy up the People's party of
Ohio, ar they knew man v of its leaders
to be for sale.
While our new war ships are giving
their officers a chance to do the agreea
ble to the belles of the fashionable sea
side resorts in this country, that gal
lant old seaman, Rear Admiral McCann ,
the commander of the South Atlantic
Squadron, is in Washington worrying
because he has no flagship, the Pensa
cola, which he had used until recently
as such, being now on her way to Mare
Island Navy Yard, where it is expected
she will be condemned. The other
' vessels in the South Atlantic are the
Essex and the Tallaooosa, the latter,
according to a recent private letter
from a naval officer, being in such a
bad condition that she will have to be
condemned and sold where she is.
This state of aflars isn't creditable to
those responsible for it; but as long as
social influence is the power that con
trols the Navy department there is lit
tle probability of a change for the bet
ter. "It isjust as well" said a Pennsylva
nia Democrat, "to accept with a grain
of allowance all stories told about what
Quay is going to do for or against this
or that Presidential candidate. Mr.
Quay has the fight of his life on his
hands in order to keep control of the
Republican machine in Pennsylvania.
If he wins, then it will be time enough
for him to attempt to influence national
politics, but if he loses, as I now think
he will, there will bo none so humble
as to do the ex-how mucron

An Aerial Top.
Street fakirs hare brought out a new toy
that neither runs along the pavement nor
makes a noise if placed at tbe month. Men
and boys who had gathered about a fakir
at Stuyvesant park yesterday were startled
when he cried "Look outl" With a whizz
and a whirr, something rose swiftly in the
air, curved, and swept gracefully down
again.
The new toy is an aerial top, and the fakir
sold several on the spot. It consists ot a
thin ring, with three spokes, mounted de
tachably on a slender steel rod. The Bpokes
are flanged and twisted a bit. The hub has
a band for a string. The handle of the
steel rod is held in one hand, while the
other pulls off the string with a jerk. The
wheel revolves rapidly and ascends. Some
times it will ascend several hundred feet,
the height of flight depending on the force
with which the string is jerked. New York

Paris Cor. New York Epoch.
The Cost Lighted City In the World.
Paris is now on the eve of a revolution in
ber lightingsystem. Gas lighting was first
introduced in England, but Paris followed
In good time and with a splendor unequaled
elsewhere. In like mauner America, Ger
many and some other countries have been
earlier in the use of electric lighting, but
the Parisians, with their superior taste and
skill in all matters of municipal arrange
ments and appointments, are destined to
make by far the most brilliant use of the
new illuminant.
Within one year, or within two years at
the farthest, it is confidently claimed that
Paris will be incomparably tbe best lighted
city in the world, and that electricity will
have superseded gas in public use. In 1878,
at the time ot the universal exposition, the
municipal goverment ordered the experi
mental illumination of the Avenue de
l'Opera and several open spaces with alec
tricity; but the new system was not ripe
for large use, and the experiment was soon
abandoned. Its principal effect was the
stimulus it gave to the gas company, which
invented and put into use certain large
compound burners using 1,400 liters per
hour, and giving a most brilliant light.
The great electrical improvements of the
past decade were exhibited in the French
exposition of 1SS9, and were studied with
the utmost care by the Parisian authori
ties and municipal engineers. Undoubted
ly the displays at the exposition had the
most pronounced effect in stimulating the
new zeal Paris is showing for the appli
ances of the electric age. Dr. Albert Shaw

Women as Physicians.
Kindred to .Xsculapius were those first
women physicians, Circe and Medea, but
while all honor is attached to the name of
iEsculapius, Medea and Circe are regarded
with suspicion as enchantresses, dealers in
poisonous drugs and using their knowl
edge of medicine to further their own per
verse ends. Instead of following a legiti
mate business, as men would do, they spent
their time mixing love philters and prac
ticing all kinds of sorcery and mischief.
There are those who claim that Circe and
Medea are the types of women physicians,
and that whenever women have engaged
in the healing art, whether in ancient or
mediaeval times, they have always abused
the privilege and degraded the profession
by connecting with it some magic or witch
craft. It is to be remembered, however, that
these reports of song and story were writ
ten by men, and in earlier times there may
have been the same antipathy against the
infringement by women of the domain pre
empted by man that there is in these mod
ern times. Still the witchcraft argument
is not without some force even at the pres
ent time, for although the days of sorcery
are past, the witchery of attractive women
disguised as ministering angels to the sick
must be admitted to be as potent as ever.

The Caves of Corsloa.
Travelers and scientists are greatly in
terested in the recent discovery of wonder
ful caves on the island of Corsica. A miner
who undertook 'to explore them a few
weeks ago found it impossible to do so. He
discovered various small caves close to
gether which led to a mammoth cave some
distance from the original openings. The
roof of the mammoth cave was between
sixty and seventy feet high. After travel
ing underground for some time he came
npon am immense lake, which made fur
ther progress impossible.
According to his estimates, the lake is
situated under the mountain chain h He
vellata, near Calva, and gets its water
from the ocean. In support of his theory
a small grotto was discovered on Cape Ke-
vellata, on a level with the sea, which is
believed to be connected with the caves.
The length of the caves along the coast is
estimated at thirty miles. A society of sa
vanta has been formed to explore the place
thoroughly this summer. Philadelphia

The "Pig of the Bushes."
In Ireland tbe lizard is called "aire
luicnair," which, literally translated,
means "the pig of the rushes." It is held
in great esteem for its curative powers.
When caught the person who is anxious to
receive the curative power takes the aire
luicnair in his hand and licks the creature
all over head, feet, belly, legs, iides and
tail and the tongue of the person who
thus licks the aire luicnair is said to ever
afterward possess the power of taking the
pain and Bting out of a burn.
The aire luichair crawling across the
throat of one suffering with quinzy, or the
hands of a person whe has licked or even
recently handled one of the little creatures,
is thought to be a sovereign remedy for
that disease. There is also a prevailing
idea that the aire luichair is always on the
watch to crawl down the throat of any per
son who happens to fall asleep out of doors.

An Elaborate Luncheon for Children.
On, of the favored small folk of this op
ulent city was the recipient not long ago of
a luncheon which must Dave been a de
light to her and the other wee ones who
graced the feast. The guest of honor was
a lovely four-year-old with golden hair and
big brown eyes, and the dozen little ones
asked to meet her counted their years, tbe
eldest of them, not more than twice as
many. For this company of tender age
the table showed a bank of variegated hya
cinths through its center. Wax lights
with shades to match the parti-colored
flowers added to the brilliancy so pleasing
to the childish eyes.
At every plate stood a miniature pot
swathed in a Chinese napkin in which was
growing a small hyacinth, and by its side a
lovely doll, whose gown exactly matched
the hue of its companion flower. This
kaleidoscope of color and gifts brought ad
miring "Ohs!" from every separate small
girl as she took her scat.
The sensible mother who provided the
luncheon deserves record for the menu,
which included bouillon, creamed oysters,
broiled chicken, colored jellies, ice cream.
small cakes, not rich, aud chocolate. The
last course was a Jock Horner pie this
one showing, to match the harlequin
luncheon, a top gay with many colored
fluffs of tissue paper, each of which duly
resolved itself into a "plum" of acceptable
shape to its delighted possessor. Her Point

A "Cincinnati Idyl.
There is to be a wedding in the west end
soon which will be the sequel to a rather
romantic introduction. Oue night about a
year ago a daintily attired little lady got
aboard one of the Seventh street cars on
her way home from her day's work in an
up town office. The car was well filled,
and the young lady was compelled to swing
on the end of a strap tor many squares.
She was a little bit of a body, and she had
to stretch her arms considerably to reach a
strap for support. The car gave a lurch as
it turned a cotpcr, mid a white band
made its apiMiir.inus aUmt the little wom
an's waist. As it slowly grew larger broad
smiles made their appearance on the faces
of several of the mal:: passengers.
Feeling something was wrong, the young
lady glanced down at her waist and at
once blushed crimson with embarrassment.
A young mechanic on his way home from
work was in the car, and seeing the young
lady's dilemma he proved himself a true
gentleman by at once coming to her assist
ance. Stepping between her and the other
passengers be said:
"Pardon me, miss, but if you wish to ad
just your skirt I will screen you from the
over curious eyes of these other passen
gers." Tbe little lady accepted the proffered aid
with thanks, aud after that they met near
ly every evening on their way home. Their
acquaintance ripened into something
stronger than friendship, and the closing
act in this "romance of a car strap" will be
the wedding of these two. Cincinnati En

Nearly every pattern of 5 Horse
Blanket is imitated in color and
style. In most cases the imitation
looks just as good as the genuine,
but it hasn't the warp threads, and
so lacks strength, and while it sells
for only a little less than the genu
ine it isn't worth one-half as much.
The fact that A Horse Blankets
are
copied is strong evidence
that they are THE STANDARD,
and every buyer should see that
the 5A trade mark is sewed on
the inside of the Blanket.
