Borne wild people are reported about to march from Los Angeles to Wash ington to make a. demonstration on the steps of the national capltol, where the presidents deliver their inaugural ad dresses. The folly of the idea is so thorough and flagrant that it is the feeling of the American people there can be nothing formidable In It, and that it may be trusted to fizzle out In ' a straggling procession of tramps. The leaders are, of course, mere notoriety seekers, and their professions of being representatives of people who " are wronged by wicked laws and govern mental favor to monopolists, are puerile. If these people have a petition to lay before congress, lot them send it to a member by mall or express. Their per sonal presence, according to Jha procla mations they have made, Is threaten Ink, and warrants police attention. It has been American policy from the first that our deliberative assemblies shall not be molested by mobs, or even sub jected to the Influences of the centres ot population.' If there" was, or ever could be, Justification for a popular demon stration la Washington meant to im prove the occasion, it would be by the skilled worklngmen who are subjected to impoverishment, by the Imcompetent Interference with the sources of their prosperity. But the wotKingmun brought the present unfortunate comli tions upon themselves, and know it and they have to perform their duties as citizens' in the old-fashioned way to get out o( the scrape, and they know that, too. There will, we presume, be found authority and force, if needed, to relieve congress of a state of siege by cranks on' a tramp. The moment, the affair is seen to be serious, it will and it must disappear. The national cap ltol must not bo beleaguered by a crowd disgorged from private lunatic aByluntB; and it will be well to deal with the first gang that undertakes It, so that there will not be a second attempt." We can not afford the establishment of revolt! tlonary precedents. .,,.': The mugwump paper contain mourn ful stories telegraphed all tho way fro" Washington. Tho most deplorable Item of this news Is that there Is an "ugly feeling" In the house about the way the senate is treating the Wilson till. There are lots of democrats In the house who reel that the senate ought to pass the house bill, to prevent the general mas sacre of democratic member of that liody that the people seem to have In ml od for November next The moat ex posed demnorota feel that the senators who merely have to negoUale with leg islatures are taking a base advantage of the members who have tj appeal to the people at large. The truth Is. how ever, the fault Is that ot the democratic j-ncty, ami the crime .if the party was In fooling the people. What a farce It wae for the democracy to carry the country on alleged tariff reform, and have no more policy on the subject than a herd of Texas steers! How Infinitely ludicrous it was for the manufacturing states to vote, as several of them did, to turn over their enormous Interests In diversified Industry lo the stales where Die democrats vote for llieniwlvcs and the republicans also, and think, as the Virginians did in the last century," It Is the duty of the United States to find England in free raw material and take her manufactures! It was the proud boast of the magnifi cent Voorhees that he was going to suppress the sugar trust. He meant to do it by putting a small tax on raw sugar and a smaller tax on refined sugar. Voorhees may deny that he ever saaa any such thing, but It was so stated in a mugwump newspaper. But Voorhees can say he never expected several things that have happened to oc cur. He had no idea of a sugar-bounty senator being appointed a Justice of the supreme court, and confirmed with a shout of Joy, and then staying In the Senate to prevent the blight of free trade from reducing half a million peo ple to hunger in Louisiana. Mr. Voor hees has several times acted upon In formation. Count Bismarck demanded In the relchstag that Count Von Donhoff ex plaln a story that was charged to him that Prince Bismarck said the rejection of the Russian treaty would mean war. The count said he "had learned Herr Krupp had heard Dr. Schweninger say ho had heard Prince BlBmarck make a statement to that effect." RANDOM SHOTS. Hereafter there will be no excuse for locating the Roncador Reef wrongly on the charts. The United States naval authorities know exactly where It Is. Lord Rosebery's reputation as a sport does not affect him adversely as much In public sentiment as It would an American of similar prominence simi laily situated. ' There Is something singularly ironical In the queen's offer of a peerage to Gladstone. It was like offering a sol dler's pension to one of the Rothschilds or a ton of Ice to a native Alaskan. "Hussel Is out for office, I hear. Do you consider him a promising candi date?" "Well, rather. He'd told no less than an even hundred fellows he'd get them all places If he was elected." Husband (late at dinner) There's one thing I must say, Maria, when Jane was alive, If I were late she had things kept hot for me. Wife (sarcastically) That's probably what she's doing now, John. Mr. Fussy Madam, you know that I always Insist on having my eggs boiled soft, and these are as hard as stones! Mrs. Landlady (timorously) Well, I wish you would speak to the cook about It. I don't care to. Wltherby Didn't your new cook leave rather suddenly? Planklngton Yes. She got mixed in her dates. She had a po liceman and a burglar call on her the same evening. Mrs. V. He's so charming; I'm sorry that my Clara felt It best to refuse him. Miss H. (Just engaged to him) Don't blame her, dear; she was so much younger than she is now. Tommy I Bay, Mr. Yabuley, sinter Laura suld at the table this morning that she thought you had the prettiest mustache she ever saw. Yabsley You oughn't to tell things you hear at the table. Tommy But she Is going to give me a penny for telling you. They came to a sidewalk where the Ice was well covered with ashes. Said the young lady. In grateful nccents Thank goodness! there's one Christian on this street. Yes, said her esc'ort ab stractedly, Mr. Solomon Isancsteln lives here. Boston Transcript. SPRING IIONNETS AND . FIXINGS. OTHER Spring millinery Is not on exhibition yet In. the retail stores, but when our reporter called on one of our leading milliners he found them very busy Just now trimming hats and tucking them away In boxes to be exhibited Justi be fore Easter,, when the spring opening begins.' Many of tho ladles are having their winter bonnets freshened ui a bit by new ribbons or flowers, und the millin ers arc working early and late to get ready for the spring openlny. lists surely were, never so bright and arUstlo before. Flowers run riot and look so-natural that U seem almost a profanation. Roses are used In great profusion, from six to nine different colors being seen on one hat. One ultra fashionable hat shown us was a large plaque, trimmed with a watered ribbon,' butterfly ' bow, caught through tho centre with a Rhinestone buckle. I A high novelty Is a pretty, low-crown ed hat of black lace, trimmed on the outor edire with lace' braid, then a ruffle of Vcnstrael lace, that In Ha deli cate ' tracery' looked like' a 'blt of sea foam; the whole finished off with pink rows, black ribbon and Jet ornaments. A very striking hat Is one of a pret ty shade of reen. trimmed with a darker shade of grt velvet, caught up on one olde with green velvet flow era, tho whole completing a h:vt that seemed designed to crown the head of onme forest fairy oueen. I Flowers were never so largely used ns now. Roues are most admired, and are arranged In compact little clusters all over the crown under the brim. Some times several colors of roses, iwtunlas and violets are seen on one hat, and dimly suggest an old-fashioned flower garden. PULLED THE THROTTLE Wide Open and Thundered Over Cul verts and Bridges. "The other evening I was down to Burlington, and some Swede concert company was giving a performance," says a 15., C. R. and N. engineer In the Cedar Rapids Republican. "I was stroi llng around and, having a few minutes off, bought a ticket and went In. As I sat down there was a girl playing a piano In a way that made me feel all over in spots. As soon as she sat down on the stool I knew by the way she handled herself that she understood the engine she was running. "She tapped the keys away up one end Just as If they were gauges and she wanted to see if she had water enough. Then she looked up as If she wanted to know how much steam she was carry ing, and the next minute she pulled open the throttle and sailed onto the main line as If she was half an hour late. "You could hear her thunder over cul verts and bridges, and getting faster and faster, until the girl rocked about In her scat like a cradle. Somehow I thought It was old '7G' pulling a pas senger train and getting out of the way of a 'special.' The girl worked the keys on the middle division like light ning, and then she flew along the north end of the line until the drivers went around like a buzz-saw, and by the holy smoke I got excited. "About the time I was fixing to tell the girl to cut hct off a little she kicked the dampers under the engine wide open, pulled the throttle way back in the tender, and how she did run! 1 couldn't Btand It any longer, and yelled to her that she was pounding on the left side, and If she wasn't careful she'd drop her ashpan. "She went around curves like a bul let, slipped an eccentric, blew out her soft plug, went down grades 50 feet to the mile and not a controlling brake set. She went by the meeting points at a mile and a half a minute and calling for more steam. My hair stood up straight, because I knew the game was up. "Sure enough, dead ahead of us was the headlight of a special. In a daze I heard the crash us they struck, and I saw cars shivered Into atoms, people smashed and mangled and bleeding and gasping for water. I heard another crash as the girl struck the deep keys away down on Hie lower end of the southern division, and then I came to my senses. "There she was at a dead standstill. with h rliMvr fif thA flt Urw nf tint m I glne open,, wiping the perspiration off her face, and bowing to the people be- fore her. If I live to be 1,000 years old I'll never forget the ride that girl gave me on a piano." HAUNTED! A haunted house In these practical and romantlo days Is something of a rarity, but an Individual haunted with the Idea that his ailment la incurable Is a iiersoiiage frequently met with. Disbelief In the ability of medicine lo cure 18 only a mild form of monomania, although in some cases repeated fail ures to obtain relief from many dif ferent sources would almost seem to Justify the doubt. Hostetter's. Stomach Ultters has demonstrated Its ability to overcome dyspepsia, constipation, liver and kidney trouble, malarial complaints and nervousness, and its recorded achiovementa In the curative line ought at least to warrant Us trial by any one truumea with either ot the above ail ments, even although his previous ef forts to obtain remedial aid have been fruitless. Used with persistence, the Ultters will conquer ths must obstinate cases. NOTICE OF ADMINISTRATION.
