A SENSIBLE WAY.
The manner in whkh Norway and
Sweden went about settling their trou
ble i worthy of international noti.
Tlie two nation, for a term of year
bound together in a union, have derided
to sever their tie and remain independ
ent, and thi without flying at one an
other's throat or trying to swallow up
each other. The example i one which
really show substantial progress of
modern civilization and of idea whk-h
a hundred year ago would have been
regarded by tlie great ruler of the
world a weak and stupid. It would be
intereoting to know what George III. of
England, or Xajtoleon, of even Bismarck,
would have said were such a policy
re3ited to either of tfin. It i
uoubtf ul . even if in the day before
tlie war of the rebellion the statesmen
of tins country would have seen any
wisdom in it. The conditions, of course,
are not identically those which ex
isted between the north and the soutJi
in 18C1, but there are element in the
controversy between the two countries
which with little difficulty might have
produced a war disastrous to both.
With the troubles that Russia has, it
shows cool wisdom on the part of the
delegate of the two peninsular coun
tries in conference at Karlstad that
t..ey could avoid a conflict at arms and,
while separating, maintain a strength
that may be valuable to both against
other trouble which appear to be forc
ing themselves to the surface in nearly
every country of Europe and which in
volve the form of government and eco
nomic conditions.
INSURANCE COMPANIES NEEDED.
The Cleveland Leader aptly declares
that "condemnation of misconduct on
the part of high official of great life
insurance companies must not be per
mitted to extend to tlie principle of in
surance." Life insurance companies,
both fraternal and old line, have long
been considered a necesary adjunct to
the business world. They have dis
bursed money, in a multitude of in
stance where it ha enabled those de
pendent on the insured to maintain a
comfortable existence. To many peo
ple, such companies have been a bles
sing, for the money thus invested
would have been spent, and those
who had needed the protection would
have been without it The present
scandals are the natural outcome of
"dollar worship," the greed for gold
that ha been one of the greatest
curse of modern civilization. Out of
it all, however, will come, it can safely
be predicted, an ideal condition of af
fairs in which the "square deal" will be
the predominating factor.
' A new York man sold hi wife for
15000. Of course if that establishes
a price married men a a whole are
richer than tliey supposed they were.
Twenty two murder were committed
in Chicago during tlie month of Au
gust Perhaps there were one or two in
London during the same time.
Tbi world would be an ideal place
to pas an existence if we were only
all paid what we think we are worth
and then actually earned the money.
The new quarrel between Venezuela
and France ha so far resulted in less
damage to the participants than an or
dinary American prize fight.
Taul Morton report that the Equit
able' restaurant in Xew York City is
a money maker. Policy holder visiting
Cotham might appeal to Paul for meal
ticket at reduced rate.
lb is gravely announced at the navy
department that an additional supply
ot water is needed at Vet Point. There
are other army posts where an addi
tional consumption of water would
prove beneficial.
William T. Eby, Detroit, Michigan,
holds the world's record for number of
brick laid in one day, 8000. He lay an
average of 5000 brick per day ..and work
o fast that he i able to command $1
an hour for hi service.
A firm of Baltimore architect., ha
drawn plan for a building without any
wood in it construction. It will be sis
stories in height, the entire structure
to be of reenforeed concrete and ateel.
evn the doors, window sashes and door
jamb will be of metal
A curious find was made in a Boston
insurance office the other day. It waa
a policy issued by the company just
before the civil war on a coastwise car-
(jo of negro slaves. Ani the company,
then, a now, had it headquarter in
New England, the stronghold of abolition.
In Abilene, Kas., the doctor came
very nearly making a mistake. When
they found that their patient had no
money the changed the diagnosis
from appendicitis, which involved an
expensive operation, and instead they
gave the patient three pills. The pa
tient i now at work.
. There are no national holidays. All
holidays are such by virtue of state
law. The president's proclamation of
Thanksgiving day, for instance, has
force and effect only in the District of
Columbia and in the territories. It ob
servance in any state i by virtue of
state regulation proclaimed by the governor.
The amount of whisky now stored in
the Louisville district is 5.821,108 gal
lons, and the Kentucky State Journal
ay: "A every gallon contain twen
ty drinks, we have a total of over 1,000,-
000,000 drink in this one district."
Twenty drinks to the gallon? We can't
swallow that. The story we mean.
