It is true, as a New York contem porary remarks, that "a public man in this country is lost when he becomes an object of ridicule." There is Sockless Simpson, for instance and Grover Cleveland. SINCE the Chilean imbroglio has been settled, the English papers are beginning to speak well of Minister Egan. It is strange how time works wonders, as it has only been a few weeks since they could hardly find mean things enough to say of him. There are a few democratic papers that are trying to make political capital out of Gen. Alger's war record, but the general has nothing to fear, as one who was steadily promoted for meritorious conduct from captain to brigadier general has nothing to fear at this late day. A Democratic exchange calls them "Jim and Ben." But that dosen't alter the fact that no other political partjr has such a safe political team. With "Jim and Ben" as wheelers the load can not be piled so high that it will stick in the mud. Uncle Sam's boj-s know a good team when they see it. Austria-Hungary is about to change its financial system from the silver to the gold standard. This will, in some degree, have a tendency to depress silver. It may. too, operate against the change of an international agreement on the readjustment of the ratio between the money metals and thw rehabili tation of silver. Globe Democrat. "WHAT is the use," said the Ilill- ites of New York, "of running Grov er Cleveland .again for president? When we nominated him for gov ernor we carrid the state by '200,000 majority. When we ran him for president we had to count him in We cannot do it again." There may be something in that proposi tion, It is possible also that they can't count Hill in either, since his feats in counting in three demo cratic senators who were defeated at the polls, have become so notor otis. A singular popular error has been corrected by the engineers of Nicaraugua ship canal. It has been a superstition lor many years that the level of the Pacific ocean was many feet higher than the Atlantic and nervous people have been predicting great disasters when the Panama canal was com pleted and the waters of the Pacific should come tearing down into the Atlantic. The difference in eleva tion was put at a hundred feet, a big fall in forty miles. But it turns out that the Atlantic is six and a liajf feet higher than the Pacific and the current will be the other way with not sufficient fall in the 150 miles to count for anything serious. PEARL BUTTON PRICES. The greatea increase of duty im posed by the McKinley bill on any manfactured article was that upon pearl buttons. Everybody can remember the frequent assertions of the free trade press during the campaign of 1890. They were: 1. That there were no pearl button factories in the United States. '2. That there never would be more than one or two of them. 3. That these one or two highly protected factories, having a monopoly of the trade, would "ad d the tariff duty to the price," 4. That the pro tectionist prediction of numerous pearl button factories, and, conse quently, ot increased competition, with a tendency to lower price, was either foolishly or dishonestly put forth. The increased duty on pearl but tons has been in force for about eighteen months. What is the result? Are the free trade assertions proven true? Or were the protectionist right? Following our custom of placing a free trade witness on the stand to prove the case of the protectionists, we quote from page 11 of the Dry Goods Economist of Feb. 8, 18U2. After making note of six pearl button factories in the stale of New Jersey alone, The Economist says: All the pearl button factories at Newark are doing a fair business, but there is too much cutting of profits among makers. That is what eighteen months of protection has done in the pearl but ton trade; it has produced firece competition, with what a journal of free trade tendencies terms "too much cutting of profits among makers." But, on the same page, our con temporary says: The price of several kind of pearl shell has advanced 50 per cent in the last four months. The great auction sales in England set tle the price. Yet, if the price of pearl buttons should rise, as the price of the raw material has risen, we shall hear the free-trade yell of "higher prices on account of the tariff," although there is dead silence as to the "too much cutting of prices among makers," which is the direct conse quence of the increase of factories "on acottut of the tariil."

Modern congregations, which often feel themselves free to criticise and condemn their ministers for very slight offenses, would he ill at case, no doubt, if the old-time authority of pastors over their flock were restored, says the Youth's Comjinnion. In the old-fashioned days, two centuries ago, it was the custom for the minister to criticise and sometimes to harass his congrega tion, instead of permitting himself to be harrassed by them. Some stories told of an eccentric divine in Bristol, Eng., illustrates this. This clerg3 man was given to preach ing very long sermons so long that his congregation finally made a formal remonstrance. He assured them that he would take the matter into consid eration. Next Sunday, when the hour came for the sermon, the pastor announced that he would give them a "short sub ject." His text, he said, was from Luke xviii, 8 "Neverthless." He began to preach, and the sermon had already been half an hour longer than usual when he said: "And now I know you are all fret ting and grumbling because vour din ners are spoiling at home, but never theless I shall go on." At last complaint was made to the liishop against the clergyman's "ridi culous manner of preaching." and the personal remarks which he introduced into his sermons. The Archdeacon and the Bishop's Chaplain were directed to go secretly to the church, and bring a faithful report to the Bishop of what they heard. The clergyman, in spite of their secrecy, got wind of their presence and errand, and preached from Genesis xlii., 9: "Ye are spies; to see the nakedness of the land ye are come." The sermon, it is said, was so in genious and forcible that a good re port of it was carried to the Bishop, and for that time the pastor triumphed over his enemies. Finally, however matters went so far that the clergyman one day came to blows with several of his parishion ers, and conquered them all, giving them a severe drubbing. Next Sun day he took for his text Nehemiah xiii., 25: "And I contended with them and cursed them, and smote certain of them, arul plucked off their hair." Greek as She Is Spoke. In a letter to the Times on "Greek at the Universities," Sir George Bowen says: "I would venture to conclude with an appropriate anecdote which may help to enliven this somewhat dry subject. The late Bishop Wilber force was wont to relate that at one of his ordinations he once had a candi date who was the son of an English merchant settled in Greece. When examined in the Greek testament this gentleman pronounced in the Greek manner, which seemed strange to the bishop,-who exclaimed: 'Oh, Mr. , where did you learn Greek?' ' The trembling candidate faltered out. At Athens, my lord!' The bishop added. 1 passea nun without further ques tion.'" Toronto Globe. Nearly a quarter of all cases ot in- satiitv are hereditary.
