What Will Hnppon Then?
Mark Tw nin^calls for the Invention of
the plirenopbooe, an Inatmraent which
will enable mankind to read one an
other's thonghta through infinite dit-
tanecs, directly, without need of cable,
telephone or telegraph. He would have
a sort of psychic telegraph, so to speak,
which conld ntilize the thought current
whose existence many begin to believe in
—tap it and make it carry instantly
thonghts from one brain to another, how
soever far removed the other brain
might be. The famous humorist him
self has had experiences in which, with
out the aid of any instrument, the
thoughts of his own brain have flashed
into the brain of another, even to the
very words Mr. Clemens WiW about
to utter. In the new psychic develop
ments which the race is expected to at
tain there is reason to fear this kind
of thought resiling may become common,
terribly common. What then is to be
come of civilized man?
Civilized speech is a method of show
ing to others largely what we do not
think. If you believe in yonr soul a man
is a liar, but do not dare tell him so,
what will yon do when he reads your
mind like an open book? When a fash
ionable woman treats cordially a dear
friend whom she instantly falls on and
bilks about horribly the moment the
dear friend is out of sight, how will she
feel to have the lady suddenly open the
door ami rejieat out of her own thought
reading consciousness every word that
has been said? Terrible times there will
be then. The only safety will be in
never thinking a wrong thingabout any
body. In view of the possible near ap
proach of this new psychic development,
perhaps we might begin now to think
only such thoughts as we would be will
ing to have all the world read.
That Voice Again.
A fatal objection has been brought
against the possible candidacy of Cardi
nal Gibbons for the papal chair in case
of the deatli of his holiness, Leo XIII.
The objection is brought by a Europea .,
writer, It. de Cesare, and it is this: Car
dinal Gibbons speaks no language bu-
English, and the enormity of the offense
becomes double dyed by the announce
ment that he “speaks ifwith a nasal
twang, like all .forth Americans."
This is indeed terrible. If that nasal
twang of ns of the United States is go
ing to keep Cardinal Gibbons from be
ing pope, then are we far gone indeed
Cardinal Gibbous, good, honest Anieri-
can that he is, so offends the sensitive
foreign ear by his nasal twang that it is
mentioned ui a serious reasou why be
should not Is) pope. “It. do Cesare,"
who evidently would tight bitterly
agaist any American candidate for the
papal succession, seems able to find
nothing graver than this to bring against
the Baltimore cardinal, which is a com
pliment indeed to him.
But is not this the place to draw the
line about that “nasal twang" in the
American voice? It is there, no doubt
of that. It is as certainly there as the
misplaced h's of the British cockney.
But it is nothing that we cannot get rid
of. and that easily. When it is brought
forward as something which should keep
distinguished gentlemen from prefer
ment, then it is time to take leave of it
st once and forever.
It is cheerful to note a prospect that
the pops and the French republic can
make up their differences and effect a
reconciliation on terms satisfactory to
both. Those who claim to he well in
formed declare that his holiness dis
approves of uutirepublican agitation
among the Catholics of France, and he
desires them to cease it and become
faithful subjects of the republic. At the
same time the French government has
signified its desire to be on good terms
witii tlie head of a church to which at
least ninety-uino out of a hundred of its
people adhere. If a gisal understanding
between Leo X111 a id the French gov
ernment can he brought about, then the
greatest danger that threatens the re
public of France—the opposition of the
women aiyd the clergy—will be removed.
Another charitable bequest has beeu
lost to the world, this time the sum of
$300,000, because the testator did not
specify exactly what he wanted done
with the money. He simply willed it to
“such charitable uses" as his executors
deemed it could best be devoted. The
will was thrown out and the trust de
clared void because the object of the be
quest was left vague. A man of any
sense wbo wants to devote money to
benevolence uses it himself for this pur
pose during his lifetime. But if yon have
not sense and want to wiil to charities,
mention exactly what the bequest is for.
otherwise the money that is to perpetn
ate your name in a university, library
or among the heathen will never be used
as yon intended it to be.
Plated with American Armor.
Only two of the competitive armor
tests by the United States had been
made at Indian Head, Md., when it ws«
discovered that American made armor
for protecting ships of the navy was
beyond a doubt the best in the world.
Six competing plates were set up to be
shot at in the trials. The three plates at
the second competing trial were each
tOj inches thick, « feet high and 8 feet
wide. Behind them was a “backing” of
the kind that would be in use when the
plates were employed to cover the sides
of war vessels.
The difference in the plates used for
the trials was one of composition. The
result of the shots proves that an armor
made of an alloy of nickel and steel,
highly carbonized and chilled by the
Harvey cold water jet process of surface
hardening, is the best in the world, and
it is made here at home in the Bethlehem
iron works, in Pennsylvania.
In the best foreign ship armor hereto
fore known the projectile has left a
bulge of five to six inches at the back of
the plate, where it has not actually pene
trated the backing. In the American
armor the same kind of bulge is only
one-fourth of an inch. The facts detn
onstrated at the Indian Head trials are
extremely gratifying. The new navy
will now be pushed more rapidly than
ever. In a very short time the United
States will rule all the seas on this side
of the globe, and can dictate her own
policy to European powers on such
[mints as, for instance, a ship canal
across the isthmus between North and
South America.

Commenting on the coming American
navy The Review, of Reviews uses these
remarkable words: "If England were
the only power against whom the United
States might have occasion to use their
ironclads they might as well be left un
built. At the same time we shall he
glad to see the Americans supplied with
an efficient navy. It will make the
naval alliance which must come between
the two English speaking families less
oue sided than would be the case at pres
ent."

Charles L. Tiffany, of the Now York

medallion portraits of Mr. and Mrs. Tif

In spite of our solemn warnings they
will do it. We have begged men and
women who loved each other not to
write letters to each other when in the
worst stages of the attack—letters that a
cold and unfeeling world would jeer at
when the lawsuit came on afterward.
But it seems as if an evil power hypno
tized mifortunate lovers just at the
wrong time. "Hypnotized” is a fash
ionable word now, and writers with any
pretensions to style lug it in wherever
possible. In consequence of being hyp
noticed thus, lovers continue, iu spite of
our tearful expostulations, to write
letters such they would give one ear
could they recall. This is particularly
apt to be the case if a man loves an
other man’s wife, or if a single woman
loves a married woman's husband.

I'irst Fraud, Then Failure.
An epidemic of failures has raged
throughout the business world during
the past year. There was the Baring
embarrassment iu London, owing large
ly, it is said, to the bankruptcy of the
Argentine Republic. Then came a series
f bankers' and brokers' failures in
America. New York was struck heav
ily, so were IViuisylvania and Massa
■till.setts, and New Jersey did not es-
rape. Failures large and small have
followed oue another in quick succession
in Penns)Ivauiannd New York. Smaller
failures have occurred in many of the
states of the Union. Then, as the year
neared its close, came the great Berlin
crash. The ripples from the great Berlin
wave of financial disaster have not yet
ceased, but continue to topple over
smaller concerns than those which first
went to the wall and startled the busi
ness world of Europe.
If the causes of these failures are
traced, they will be found almost with
out exception to have originated in
fraud. Those intrusted with the finan
cial affairs of others or the officers of
business houses want more money than
they have in order to make greater dis
play of luxury iu the manneraif living
It is this tiiat tempts ninety-nine men
out of a hundred to ruin. They appro
priate to their own use other people’s
money, expecting to replace it. They
cannot replace it and ninst steal more to
cover up the first theft. Then at Iasi
ooines detection, sometimes followed by
.light, sometimes by suicide and always
by disgrace to the thief and his family.
It is really a very highly developed
nan morally who h:is the backbone to
remain honest in the face of all tempta
tion. Yet honesty is after all the only
way. Sixteen ounces to the pound, thir
ty-six inches to the yaid, a dollar in
pocket for every dollar of debt, the power
to look every man bright and square in
the face—this is what it means to lie a
business man fit to be trusted with great
interests.

twenty rapid firing guns and four Gat

partial belt of armor, placed amidships,
and by a complete belt of water exclnd
ing material.
The new ship is built both for cruis
ing and fighting. Her heavy barbettes
an 1 the almost impenetrable armor that
constitutes her gnu shields will make her
a formidable enemy for the best of Eu
ropean shi[« to grapple. The New York
is the largest, finest cruiser yet turned
out of an Ameriean shipyard, the most
magnificent vesnel of our new navy, and
we 'point with pride to her. At least we
shall do so when she is all finished and
get# her machinery and armament. That

emergency arises, it can be completed in
four mouths. But if the hired laborers
of Uncle Sam spin out the work as they
usually do in order to get the most out
of it and make it last ns long as possible,
then it will require a year and a half.

Political Coinooutci-s.
Speaking of the Farmers’ Alliance in
the fall elections, the New York Sun
recalls something of the hisftry of indo-
N-ndent political movements in the last
eighteen years.
The Sun lays it down as a general
statement that in the year midway be
tween presidential elections an inde
pendent movement rises like a wave,
temporarily overwhelming a portion of
the political world, and then subsides.
Die Grangers made a strong showing.
The Sun remarks, in 1871. By 1878,
presidential year, the Granger wave as a
political factor flattened out—sank into
the respective bosoms of the Republican
■rud Democratic parties again. In 1878
the Greenback movement swept over
the country. It secured 80,000 votes
-ven in Pennsylvania. But presidential
year, 1880. the contest was once again
between Republican and Democrat.
In 1882 came the Independents. Dur
ing that year many Republican votes
were lost ill the elections, but with 1884—
behold. Democrat and Republican pitted
against each other come up smiling into
the ring again. In 1883 it was the Dem-
ocratic party that was threatened by
the great labor demonstration, and the
Labor cundiibites polled a large vote in
many places. But who ever knew a
Democrat to go hack on the old party
when a critical time came? In tile
presidential year of 1888 it was the same
two old contestants, Democrat and Re
publican, that fought for tho presidency.
In 18SM) the Farmers’ Alliance move
ment made a profound impression on
the elections. But The Sun believes that
history will repeat itself in 1892.
“Why.” asks Judge Ritchie, of Nova
Scotia, “should this country Ik- made an
asylum for American criminals?" We
give it up.
By the refusal of foreign countries to
admit pork from the United States the
American hog raiser has lost in the pu t
ten years $280,008,000.
The farmer who would not lie cheated
by middlemen must take a good news
paper and keep himself informed of the
inuikct prices cf the products he has to
sell.
It will cause a sort of sickly smile to
rise to the countenance of those who re-
im-inls-r how the English sparrow was
fostered and nursed into being in this
country fifteen years ago to read now
how the young Illinois boy slangh
ters him by the thousand and collects a
bounty on the head of every individual
of the dirty, brown coated tribe. Fif
teen years ago we in America could not
get enough of the English sparrow. We
feared this climate would be too inclem
ent for him. Sympathetic ladies took
the little birds in by the fire and nursed
them back to life when they were half
frozen. Every means was taken to prop
agate the bird, for we thought it would
free us from tree caterpillars. And now
we find the little beast is no good against
caterpillars, but be drives out the other
jrjj.is tliat do eat the tree worms, and
not only that, but he devours hundreds
of bushels of ripe graiu every summer.
Dec. I was Sparrow Day in Illinois—
the day when the state bounty on spar
row heads went into operation—and a
grand day it was to the small boy of the
Sucker State.

The Chicago Fair.
The Century declares editorially that
he time l :u come when all parts of the
•oitntry should join hands and help the
nanagera of the World’s fair finish the
-vork tiiey arc pushing with such energy,
t is not creditable to our national pride
hat the most backward portions of tho
■xposition are the state exhibits and
uildiugs. New York city has lagged
i.-rck and sulked, sneering at Chicago and
loing all in her power apparently to
lindcr and belittle the fair. This is
•specially trpe of the New York papers,
uoved by jealousy of the great city by
.he lake. New York city is so big and
iowi rfnl that it does not need to he
isalousof anything, hut the Now York
litors are laboring hard to create a dif-
ereut impression. At any rate it is not
ikely that Chicago would have thus trier!
to destroy the fair in case New York had
secured it.
Ttie Century calls attention to the fact
hat the directors of the exposition have
it their command a sum of money three
times as large as was used at Paris in
1889. This sum is to beexjiended on the
grounds and buildings. It is $18,000,000.
i-’oreign countries are preparing to st-end
or the exposition $40,000,000. No
.vorld’s fair ever yet had nearly so much
money as this. The nations of the earth

great, rich and well disposed to one
