THE BU8Y-UODY.
There is u certain bird, devoid <1
beauty, with which everyone is f.uni
liar. It is loathed by everyone; 1
never oings; i-s foul and unclean in it
habits ; feeds oo the filthy garbage an
refuse of the earth. It is derpiscd an
detested rot only by human beiur
but even creatures of its kind lor ye
severely alone, and meet any * rjemj
advances it may make with. (ightii
and cries of detestation.
This bird sk<ms ov
the most beautiful landscapes, hit
valleys or mountain peaks with no
a llop aud then a sai l, perfectly obli
ious to all of the beauties of natn
and the scenes that would hold otln
eyes entranced. See it as it hovers i
the shimmering sunlight of the in
heavens! surely it is not unmindful <
the beauties and glories of crea'iot
Surely one gifted with such powers ?
vision and locomotion must revel i
an aesthetic existence! But no, as
sailp oil, its eyes nre not seeking f<
beauty; it is unacquainted with the t
spMisive throb of ??...? t
? j"j inui; ucuu.y an
truth awakens in others. There com?
a sudden change. The eye erewhii
so seemingly blind, suddenly, in son:
isolated nook or valley spies a piece <
carion, it hovers on even wing for
moment and then darts upon its pre
with a gusto and a relish that is pos
tivelj' sieket.ing to decency
There is no need of my naming th
bird. It will be instantly re cognize
by everyone, from the chief el nractei
istic of passing over the good, the pur
and the beautiful, to feast upon tli
liltli ot the world, and to toll audi ut
der its tongue as a a wee I morsel. How
ever detestable and obnoxious th
bird may be, it lias its couuterpa;
among human beings.
There are people actually more t
be detested.and more to be avoide
than the vulture. They have th
same tastes in 'heir mental and pliys
ual constitutions that it has in it
physical. They, also, exlnb't a di
pravity of soul and intellect thsti
positively shocking to a milid that i

feeling of compassion foi the short

meet wiill, such a one as delights ii
picking to pieces reputations and cliar
acters. Instead of hunting for tli
genius of ti it h, tisefiillness. and men

and trying to nj build it by enco.ir

not only fail to give one credit for ef
forts at rigbt-livmg and n-piratiom
toward nobility of soul, but they tak<
a sickening delight i.i laying ban
btiman weakne-s, and after stripping
oil all coverings, of bo'ding them u|
to the scorn and unsympathetic gazt
of a, too often, uncharitable public.
The ti rin gossip is usually applied It
one whose chief delight is in gadding
about and attending to everyone else's
business except bis or her own; it ha:
especial reference to bini who isal
ways on the look out for motes in th ?
moral and intellectual eyes of his
neighbors while at the same time he
is b aring around and prodding people
with beams in his own eyes us large
astelegrapli poles. The gossip usually
possesses the tendency to talk over all
of the little, dirty and trivial occurences
of the whole community as well aall
of the small talk and rumors that
usually pervade the social atmosphere
of a usual community or small town.
There are two distinct clarses of gossips
or busy-bodies. First, those
whose mental talibreare so small that
it is impossible l\?r them to engage in
convocation upon topies of usefullness
and importance. Tneir mental
horizons are so limited that the range
if topiisut tl.eir command is, routined
to the small a Hairs of tln-ir neighbors
buck yatds. 'I bey are ineapuble of inlellccl

ai.il apeei li that tncy lia\e become u.most
mental imbecile. V\ e don't blame
jou; we pity you, ami from the bottom
of our hearts you have our most hiii
cere commhsfiations. *
The second class of gossips exerts a
more baneful n.Iliience upon socie'y.
They are those w lio bax e mental capabilities,
hut have protected them in
the many direction. They are those
persons who willfully and maliciously
circulate false reports up ui their
lelh w creatures, hoping to acquire
some | ersonal benefit hy so doing.
The motives lor such adieus are too
often peisonal selfishness, spite, or revi
Mge. Such a i haraeti r often limes
lays hold upon innoeeiit persons with
its tilth) talons ami trys t>y means of
lies, ii.so.out ions and false suggestions

- i Reports thus started can never be
overtaken. The farther they go the f
larger they grow, until reputation

the unjust strain. This class
f of gossips is to be feared and fought t
. by all people who have regard for j

The special *' oh l4th, 1908. |

..ier without aniendnient and the '
.after so amended as to prevent its
provisions pomp into operation until 1
after a resolution shall have passed 1
both houses of Ci ngrcssapproving the 1
agreement. Durinp the closing hours
of the sessions Senator llanos was
poinp about rubbing Ins hand,
and asking rthe Senators if any 1
u.'iifvtu uiai uiermiueub iiau uutuuiplished
anything by "keeping ;
the Senate in after school". Mr
Hanna was overjoyed because tlie 1
President's purpose of putting the
provision" of the Cuban treaty into
immediute effect had been defeated.
V
Senator Morgan iiih in tuned his attitude
of hostility to the Colombian i
Canal treaty, as framed, to the last aad
closed the debate tor the opposition
with a remarkably strong and lucid
speech outlining the weakness of the ,
convention. Senator Morgan has ,
made a reinarki.ble and a sincere fight
against the treaty. Appreciating that
his posit on was unpopular he disregarded
all consideration of personul
glory and overlooked all criticism,
lighting almost single handed a great
battle. Four senators voted with him
against the treaty although four others
were paired against it. Those
voting nay were Morgan, Pettus, Dan- ,
iel, Martin and Teller and tho'e paired
against the agreement were Senators
Culberson, Dubois, McLauriu and j
Money.
The very limited influence which
the P.esldcnt exerts in the Senate was ,
again demonstrated at the special
sessions when two nominations in
which he was specially interested
failed of confirmation. Mr. Koosevelt
used every influence at his command
to secure the confirmation of r.Crum
the negro whom he nominated during
the ri gular session for Collector of the
Port of Charleston, S. C ,and of William
Michael Hvrne, the Addtcks can
didate resigned his position asUni'ed
States Attorney to defeat th* reelection
of Representative?now Senator
Ball of Deleware. Byrne succeeded
in defeating Ball and electing a democrat
to the House front Ball s district,
hut having failed of election nimself
he promptly asked to be re'ns'ateri as
United States Attorney. During
the regular seessiou Mr Roosevelt
nominated him and his nomination
was unfavorably reported by the Judiciary
comittee of which S? nator Hoar :
is chairman. As soon as the Senate <
met in special session the President
sent in these two nominations again, i

Probably most person.-) who have (
traveled at night by rail have hud
their thought* turind to linn who,
*t a tiding with hand upon the throttle
lever of the engine, watches between (
them and dentil. Often, w lien the
Q glit has been h.ack and boisterous
with angry storm*, or cold nod deso- i
late in mid winter, we have lain down
in our snug berth listening to the
clatter of tne swiftly-moving train
with a sense of security, because we
knew there was one standing in tho
cab watching with vigilant eye againil
dinger. There hi g ize* out along
the track, conscious that liuiidrtds <>t
lives are entrusted to his care, that
these hundreds of sleeping pissengers
Ere resting calmly in the conviction
mai ne win not tail 111 duty. I hey
are all Strangers to him. At tlii stations
while the tram waits lor passengers
to take their meals, none of
ilieni thinks it worth while to speak
to him. Tneyaie going--somew hare,
riiey are?who knows even their naniesV
The conductor, the biakcinen and the
porters are brought more or less in
contact with them, and they learn
something of each other; there is a
little mutual fellowship at least. But
the engine.driver stands apart, llis
face is begrimed with soot, his clothes
soiled with grease, and his hands hard
and unseemly. On the road, alter a
long night of travel, lie is not an object
of preposessing apperance . And
yet this man. through all that night,
lias had the guardianship of hundreds
of lives and faithfully performed his
work. Sober, cool and vigilant, he
has brought Ins charge to the end uf
the journey in safety. 'The traveleis
scatter to their homes or pass to other [
scenes, praising the railroad company |
for the adui'iable system of tneir road \
and the comfortable acoiiunodation.afforded,
white perhaps none gives a
