Thomas Punn English, the author of 'Ben Bolt," says "no person should write poetry until he shall have reached the age of TO." He doesn't explain, however, why anyone should Wgin thtn. Bourke Cochran says he will sup port Bryan if the latter will drop the silver issue until 19M. It will now re main for Bryan to show whether he values Cochran's support more or loves silver less. The women who got up demonstra tions against Roberts and the con gressmen who voted aginst him might as Well have saved themselves all the trouble they went to in the matter. The New York Journal candidly ad mits that it is solely responsible for the fact that the man with three wives was not seated. The Library Journal prints a list of Andrew Carnegie's library benefac tions during the last year, from which It appears that the total of these gifts Is $3,503,500, and that they have been or are about to be divided among thirty-four institutions. That the money is not all actually bestowed is due to the conditional provisions in those cases where the beneficiaries are tailed upon to raise additional sums from other bources before the donation may be considered secure. There is un doubted wisdom in making the gifts conditional upon the uo -operative ef forts of those who are to receive them. An Institution which expects to be takfn tare of without any endeavor on its own part is sure to be Invaded bv dry rot. There will be no spirit, vneray or thought in the conduct of its affairs, but, like a pampered heir liv ing in luxury upon the fruits of another's labor, it will simply consume and waste while it a'-cuinplishes noth ing for its-lf or mankind. NEW RAILWAY LAW NEEDED. As the Inten sts of the shippers and of the railway corporations are In volved in the controversy over the pro proposed modification of the Interstate commerce law, the arguments pre stnt.d to the senate committee by the How easy It is for young 1 girls to go into the "decline. They eat less and less, become "paler and paler and can ' harldy drag through the day. ' Thev are on the steady down- ward course. Iron does them no good; strychnine and bit- ters all fail. They need a food i that will nourish them better, and a medicine that will cor- rect their disease. Scott's Emulsion : is both of these, elegantly and per- manently combined. The Cod-Liver Oil makes the blood richer, and , this jives better color to the face. The hypophosphites of lime and soda act as a strong tonic to the ' nerves. Soon the weight increases, 1 the digestion improves and health returns. , At all dnunrist j soc and Ji .00.

" How to Preserre, Purify Beautify the Hair, Uaud & Saln,"fr. representatives of the business Inter-, ests ot the country on Friday are worthy of serious consideration. j The business men ho were given a hearing on this question represent national and local boards of trade, the National Millers' Association, as well as other flouring Interests, together' with chambers of commerce and bu-' reaus of freight and transportation. These men, who claim to represent the shippers of the country, demand an interstate commerce law that shall enforce the maintenance of uniform rates and to prevent discriminations in the making uf rates. As the pres ent .'omnilsslon has several times con-, fe;?d its inability to prevent rate cut- j ting in favor of big shippers, or to piimsii violators of the law, and as the snipping ana rauroaa interests are ..... , . ....... . . , .. I unuea in tntir aemana tor tne enact- mont of a better law, the only ques- (.... i V. ....-.;! J v.. - 1 : cerr-s the scope and particular prov There seems to be some uncertainty upon the question as to whether the bill now under consideration in the senate will permit the railroads to pool the maintenance of uniform rates. Sone of the shippers who were given a hearing before the senate committee expressed 'themselves as not unfriendly to a law that would allow pooling. In fact, a representative of the National Millers' Association expressed the opinion that the revival of the old Joint Tariff Association and other sim ilar bodiefe would be a benefit to ship pers. , If the shippers are not opposed to a law that will penult pooling under control and direction of the federal cemmission there would seem to be no good reason why the senate commit-! tee should not embody this concession in the measure to be reported to con gress as the proposed measure will secure absolute uniformity In rates and which can be enforced by the interstate commerce commission. It is in the interests of the shippers of the country. Without this provision the interstate commerce law will con tinue to be a farce, as It has been for thirteen years past. NOTICE TO FISHERMEN.
