Mr. Day just 'couldnt help a out 'in the way he did, for the presi- dent has kurt his friends. Dr. Day iz ii ist Episcopal church, Harlem, snd he- lieved in "revivals. He increased the wt 2 church most ro markably, ing' it the strongest Methodist Ehusch in the city. Dr. Day was a candidate for bishop six years ago; and stayed in the balloting three days, bit the solid, * sense of the Methodist church, refrained from elect: ny him If it had elevated him to the bishoptio, he had belched out as ion, there would have heen a howl in the denomination that might have al- most "split it in twain. A great many} Methodist divines smiled when they read his 'phillipic against the presidents and said: "Oh, that's just Day." But it it is not probable that any member of congress will take up the cudgels on Day's idea, -and start the ball roll- for "Roosevelt's impeachment. Meanwhile, however, matters go on apace. The Standard Oil company, un- like its previous acts Mas opened a publicity department, and is amswer- ing all questions askea in the most liberal manner possible. It proposes now to argue with and convinre the These are curious times. Here's the great New York Telephone company using of the newspapers in hi the public. It is trying to convince the public and the business York city that it is bet- men of ter to have but one system: of fele- phones in the ' great city. It argues that the telephone business is difier- ent from any other business, and that the admission of the independent tele- phone would only confuse matters and double the expense and annoyance of business, in as 'much as to reach his customers every dealer would have to be conpected with that costumer by the telephone that that custumer uses. And under two telephone systems each telephone system would be defective, for neither would have the names of all the persons who use telephones, whereas, the present list has. As it is mow, there is one book for all tele phone users, and the finding of one you seck is; if he has a telephone at all, a very simple matter. Comptroller Metz, who ie quite a 'lively chap, sides with the Now York Telephone com- pany, in this contention, and a great many citizens do the same. They fear, that with two systems of telephones, they would have tq establish depart- ments for telephtings in their estab- lishments, and spend much time and suffer much loss and inconvenience in finding out what line the man they wck is on. So many favor the New York Telephone company having a onopoly of the business, much as they Pate the monopolies. One thing is certain, and that is, no city has a telephone system that is anywhere as good or efficient as New York's sys- tem, and the city therefore dpesn't need any other system. The independ: ents can justly claim that they brought about the reduction of rates on the mere hint that they were com- ing to town. The independent com- panies have heen bombarding Comp- troller Metz with telegrams from dis- tant cities telling how well two sys- tems work in those cities, and alto- gether the question, as all these pre- sentations of arguments to strengthen the two positions are presented, of newspapers, as it presents the best class of advertising, paving. the high- eet rates, and taking very large quan- tities of space. The present telephone system says it will be contented with ten per cent. profit on its investment, and will let the city authorities con- trol the prices of its service. with the utmost publicity as to all the details of its business. The independents offer a big sum for the nrivilege of using the streets for their lines, and for the franchise. One thing is certain. and that is, that the city of New York will surely he in a much better condi- tion as to telephones when this war is over thaw it was when it hegan. It is at last authoritatively settled whit was the name of the great navi- pator who first sailed wp the Hudson river, and after m it was named, 'the name chosen for the river happily having no obscurity about it. For centuries the navigator has been call. od Hendrick. 'and vet that wasn't' his name, it Yeing simole Henry, just like a plain, evervday American. of modern times. This matter is settled by Hugh Hastings, historian of the state 'of New York, who quotes from the original contract between the di- rectors" of the Fast Indian company and the chamber of Amsterdam, made 'on the 8th 'day of January, 1600, and bears the name in the Watch copy, hoth in the body of the Joou- ment and the signature, "Henry Hud- Thank the Tord, there has heen one big work for the public that has had no. su of graft ahout it. and that is the most remarkable investi- £ 5 lanously, y & iF Hi 7 i if: Fai.

The whole: expenses foot up but a i over a hundred. thousand dol- rr i of the old-timers would ve spent a half to a whole million on the work, and not have reached such conclusive results. The school authorities have been greatly disturbed in regard to proper way for the children to carry school books to and from the school houses, They gstablished a rule that they should carry them first on the right side, and then on the left side, doing one on the even days, and i ; i Lr Sx F £ EE £ ing the books alternately from side to side, prevails. But what seems to be a better plan is that of the Ptus- fitted out with' little knapsacks, which are filled with the books, and str ped upon the shoulders keep their shoulders tribute to the expansion of the chest. This plan certainly does not tend to curve the spine, as one side is used any more than the other. The more so 1 the casual thinker is apt to consider. We have plenty of crooks in this generation, and want no more té come up to us from the rising generation. Mark Twain's little illness awaken- ed much attention and some anxiety, not so much from the character of the ailment, which was not serious, as from the great ifiterest the public foels in the man. Mark Twain occu- pies tho position in the. regard of the general public that Gen. Grant used to do when his sickness first hecame known. Nobody: wanted to talk of anything in those days until they had heard how he had passed the night, and wished that the. morning report would show improvement of some kind. So with Mark-Twain, he is now the public's chief concern so far as in- dividual humanity goes. And when it was announced that his kindly old face was once more seen on the streets taking his morning contitational, de- light spread in all directions, and peo- ple shook their hants and smiled as though a great personal favor had been done them. When he reaches Dublin, N.H.,, and inaugurates his programme for the summer, ho will begin upon what he calls his last work, his autobiographical reminis- cences. It will have to be a bulky volume, if it merely narrates the in- cidents that he has giwen the public from time to time, while it is to be supposed that he has held something in_ reserve to crown the work. As he takes only two hours a day for this work, he must expect a long life yet ahead, forit will take many years at that rate. Many will wish more power to Prof. James H. Hyslop's magnetic eyes if he is capable of doing what he told his clubmates he was able to do. Riding in the subway he saw a drunken man aboard, and took to amusing himself with him. Concentra- ting 'hi ebriated man he smiled upon the fel- low, and holding him with an earnest look of the eyes exerted 'all his hypo- notioc power, and soon had him under his influence entirely. --OLD TIMER. Political Honesty. Birkenhead furnishes the most re- markable instance of political honesty io discovered in modern times in the ited Kingdom. Major Thompson, town councillor and leader of the Pro- testant party in the town, called a meeting the other day in the borough park of the clectors and tendered his resignation, with the explanation that having gotten extremely drunk a few days before he felt himself no longer worthy of public confidence. The re- signation was refused almost unani- whereupon Thompson with- drew it and announced that he would hercalter be a firm total abstainer.

England's future queen while in Egypt was the recipient of a compli- ment for which there is only one pre- ent, namely, thgt paid to Empress Eugenie by the old Khedive Ismail six and thirty years ago. On that oc- casion--it was at the time of the in- | auguration of the Suez canal--Ismail caused a fine carriage road to be constructed from Gairo all the way out to the pyramids and the sphinx ol Gizeh, so that tho empress might be able to drive to the foot of the pyramids, instead of being compelled to make the trip on horse or donkey back.
