Mark Twain's most popular joke was that which he perpetrated on the cred itor of the publishing firm of Wetwster k. Co., of which he was a member, when he paid its debts. The recent Main disaster Is not with out some value as a popular educator. A Buffalo paper assures its readers that "gunpowder Is composed of different materials In certain proportion."

Mod ern music cannot bury those simple, yet worid-touc'iltiK, air which have an im mortality of their own. If analyzed carefully, says New York Horn Jour nal, ni.al-ni "music will ! found to pre sent very marked differences from the ballad of a few decade, since. One hardly knows whether to call the senti ment of it vulgar; at least it U often tawdry. Our poet of the higher, more iTirr-tlv. tvie have neidected till. possibilities of the ballad, and some how it seems nowadays that the words are framed to be wedded to fflltsic rather ib-an that the music owes t birth to the words. Our mo'lern music bears all the marts of the ephemeral. The ballad has bee relegated to In ferior artists; the coarser the wit or the more maudlin the sentiment in these days, the more unerringly the "gag, ' ot whatever one may call it, seems to leap down from the footlights to the throats of the audience, and thence, ana tnence of course to the streets. These are the days of fame quickly and easily earned, but as quickly and ruthlessly buried In oblivion. The ballad of the day U weak, pulpy, neTve.lesa, or far-fetched and hysterical. With all the splen dor of orchestral interpretation It Is tame enough; whistle, on the streets, it is simply bathos. It follows that out best poets should seek to elevate It, and that the love of artistic music should not extinguish the g-m in poetic minds of that simpler order of song which In all ages has gone most surely to the heart of the people. Hvti has paid Italy off to save her- aR from another forced collection, but aew France Is dunning her for an over due debt.

The limitao of statistical work, when applied to what Is done by relig ious and charitable agencies, could scarcely be better tummarized than In these word in an Introduction to a church year-book: "There are facta that refuse to be tabulated elsewhere than in the note-books of the angels," "Ubrarieei They look more like bee hives!" was the recent exclamation of a .n.nmr a be saw the Hon. J. H. Stout of Wisconsin locklftf the doors of some wooden cheats. On learning afterward that philanthropic gen-tlm.ua- bad, at hi private epense, fitted out thirty act traveling libraries to circulate among Wisconsin towns, he further amplified nil figure: "Yes, beehives! for It I not tbe hooey a man eats, but that which he hives for others, ut of which he gets true bappdnees.' Six interesting centenaries are to be celebrated tals year, as follows: April if., the signing of the edict of Nantea by Henry IV., the chief celebration of which will be In New York by the Huguenot society; the Irish celebration of the 1798 rebellion; May 20, the dis covery of the cape route to the Indies by Vasco da Oama; May 23, the mar tyrdom of Savonarola; June 29, the birth of the Italian poet, Giacomo Leo pard!; Aug. 21. the birth of Julee.Mi chelet, the historian. One centenary has already been celebrated, Jan. 19, the hundredth anniversary of the birth day of Comte, the founder of postlv Is m. A young woman went Into a large dry goods store not long ago and began openly to pocket articles from the counter. On being arrested, she said quietly that baring no borne but the streets, the preferred to spend the night In prison. The Incident emphasises President Eliot's recent caution to would-be pblUuMbropIsts. Hospital and asylums and reformatories are but necessary palliatives of developed evil: whereas cbareties, schools, museum, gardens, gymnasia art instnuneivts of moral construction, and train a child to avoM ni and paprtai la beater than to help tba adult st of tboss coa-dlUaw. It will be worth more than $50,000, 000 to the American people to know that the great heart of this people la a unit In favor of the Government" This utterance of Gen. Grosvenor pending consideration of the bill appropriating $50,000,000 for the national defease, has been re-echoed by millions or Amen cans since. It is worth a great deal to anv people to be lifted out of them selves and above all sordid, routine and nartlsan influences to a point where they breathe the invigorating air and get the broad view that pertains to pure patriotism. Such an experience In na tional life Is worth as much more than any money value as spiritual develop ment is higher than material. It does not come too often In the history of any people. There has never been but one Athr Vmfnrc the oresent within the memory of men now living. That was the great uprising after the firing on Fort Sumter, but that differed from the nresent one in that It was the uprising of a divided Instead of a united people. One represented, for the time at least, national separation, while tne otner represents national unification. This Is the lesson of the vote in Congress- national unification. We all know that the nasalou of the civil war have sub sided and Its bitter memories are for the most part buried. In recent years there have been many evidences of this In fraternal reunions, patriotic celebra tions and popular demonstrations, but there has been nothing to approach in moral splendor and significance the vote of 311 to none. Including every Southerner as well as every Northerner, every Confederate as well as every Un ion veteran, in favor of appropriating iriO.ooo.OOO for the national defense. A man must be psst middle age to have witnessed the great uprising and dem onstration of loyalty In 1SC1. Thepres- ! ent generation has had n correspond ing spectacle and no baptism or patri otism such as every generation needs, until now. Now It knows something of the uplifting and unifying force of the sentiment of patriotism In a great peo ple. The action of Congress Is an offi cial declaration of national unification as significant as the original Declara tion of Independence. While one de clared that "thet-e united colonies are, and of right ought, to be, free and ln- denendent States," the other estab- iuhM that under tt new order of things we arc more than ever ona na tion and one people. W ill Farmers Be Muzzled? The Washlugtou i'oet, under the pres ent administration, may be classed as the leadiug morning goldbug organ of the Cuited States, and the fun-most advocate of the infallibility of the par ty in power. Its New York namesake is an equally reliable evening organ The farmers make too much noise for the sensitive nerves of the Post. U sa s: "The farmers are as deeply interested us oilier citizens in ijnestioHs of nation al politics, and it is cjUite as pro-r and expedient for them as for any other da.vt to take an active Interest iu politi cal campaigns. But It is not profitable i.. tliein n.it conducive to their uu;.n- cial prosperity or any other of Ue;r varied interests to lie active and a- j gresslve political campaigners irom Jan. 1 to Dec. 31 in each and every year." Why does not the Post cull off the dugs of financial war? Why are the Uafc'c. the r'airchilds, the I'.ynvinis, the I.titighlins, and the whole pack of gold bug howlers canvassing the country to "mure thoroughly commit the United States to the single gold standard T Why are Wall street's goldl.ng mission aries, styling themselves the Sound Money Club," deluging the country with literature from the inner circle of Wall and Lombard street gold gam- ; V Why are the tioanls or iraue glioiit the country loading Con gress wiiu petitions 10 uiium- uw fortunate relations with Spain for the uissage of the Indianapolis Gage plan of turning the finances of the jK-opie oi this country over to the tender mercies of a banking syndicate and robbing the Government of its constitutional power to coin money and regulate the value thereof?" The Post further says: There Is time enough, if projterly ap portioned, for the farmer, the mechanic. the miner, the manufacturer, the mer chant, the professional man, and ail other citizens to give that attention to politics which every good citizen owes. To Introduce the "battle ot tne stand ards" Into an agricultural meeting is as unnecessary and inexpedient as it would be to push the 11 to 1 proposition upon the attention of a religious confer ence." Who authorized the goldlteg to apior tlon out the time which farmers, me cbanles, miners, manufacturers and nrofessional men may occupy in dis easing political affairs: There has been some complaint with regard to the manner In which Speaker Reed-appor tlons the time for discussion in the House of Itepresentatives, and it has been suggested that be sometimes cuts off debate on questions disagreeable to him. Now comes the great defender of n. vtmitni A Co. and proiioses to a.mm-tiou the time which the people mo take to reply to the heresies ot thee loquacious goldltes. The Post reprecates the Introduction of the battle of the standards Into ag riculUiral meetings. Why, then, do you flood every agricultural gathering with your goldbug literature? Why do you call your miserable trash to the atten tion of every farmer In the land In sea son and out of season? If it would be Inexpedient and unnecessary to push the 16 to 1 proposition uion tn atten tion ot. a religious conference, why do the gold propagandist do that? Why do they constantly mix religion with gold gambling? Why do they preteud that their mode of swindling Is honest, and call upon the people to stand by the honest swindling which they do, and to cease to complain of tbe lniqnlty of the powers that be? Why do tbe great ma jority of the leaders of gold-slandard contraction make louf, prayers and thank God that they ere not as other men? Why do they call the people an archists because they are opposed to rascality? Why do they call tbem dis turbers of the peace because they groan under tbe burdens of taxation impoard upon them by the pbarisees and hypo crites of the gold standard combina tions? Silver Knight Watchman, Fr.u U on the Government. The frauds perpetrated by tbe rail roads ion the Government of the United States were clearly revealed by Jerry Simpson In the House when he spoke on the Loud bill.

Is under the in fluence of the men who o n these rall r,!k and as for the House St cannot 1 induced to take action owing to the lobby maintained by the corporations.

It will be seen at once that the real toilers receiv ed very much less than $1.42 as an av erage wage, and that therefore the share going to labor must have been very much less than 13 per cent of the gross product.
