From oar Eegular C&rreipondeut 'J SwTPtMr.r' flty wnH gjyen an f inposHib!taHk when he wn tiiid by Mr. McKinley ta nVgotinTe a new treaty with England to take the plaee of the rejected treaty that will reptetient the views of two thirds of the Senate. What the Senators would agree to would not 'be agreei to by the British Ambassador. In fart, Senators who O'lght to know have declared that if the treaty just rejected by England, were to be accept ed jit asit whs, by Secreta rv Hay and tb? British Am- hwisndor and again nent to thrt 'Senate, it -would f--t.il of ratification until it. hid been Himndea. Many Sena tors are thoroughly satistied that England has been tricky in ite efforts to head ff the con strui-tion of the Nicaragua Canal- by this government, and some of them do not hes itate to'exorens) the belief Hiat the administration! has been a' party to some of the trick ery. Whether in the face of this knowledge of Senatorial sentiment. Secrel a ry Hay will try to carry out" 'his orders as to the negotiation of the new treaty is not known, but it seems ansolutely certain that any treaty acceptable to England will fail in the Senate il negotiated. Een if the administration could con trol the votes of all the re publican Senators, which it cannot, it would be six voten short of two thirds, and it may be set down assnrethat those six votescaunot, under any circumstances, be had from democrats, to ratify a treaty that gives England even as much say in the con struction of the Nicaragua Canal, as was given by the re jected Hay-Panncefote trea ty. That's why Mr. Hay's task is an impossible one. When one is rewarded f o r having turned one's political coat, he size of t he reward is apt to be regarded as the val up put upon the services of the turncoat by the other side. Upon that that theory Hon.

"If some of thegood things that are said of a mm after he is dead were said of him and to him when he was a live, this world would be a much moresatisfactory place to live in," remarked a phil anthropic and somewhat cyn ical Senator who had been discussing the praise bestow ed upon the late Hon Benj. Harrison, by prominent mem bers of the party who had tor years lost no opportuni ty to sneer at him. It does seem that the death of a man of prominence serves to bring onl striking bits of hypocri- sr in .other men 'of promt nence Why, is one ot those' THE HAGUE MCCOBKLE DRY GOODS GOMPANY, IM PORTKKS AN D WHOLES A LERS-- ' - GREENSBORO, N.

It is known to all the" world that while he wan President, and since, Mr. Harrison wa hated heartily br nearly ev ery prominent memberjof his party, for one or another rea sons, but since his death, these men have been trying to outdo each other in say ing extravngant words of praise for him. The public is very forgetful, but it isn't quite so forgetful as the talk of these men indicates them to be.

SincelMnrch T, 1900, the Standard Oil Company has declared dividends, including that of today, amounting to 69 per cent. Within the peri od of one year and fl ft e e n days, therefore, the com pa- n.r has distributed among its stokholders the aggre gate sunt of $8P,000,000, John I). Roekefellrs share of this amounts to $21,080, 000. A simble computation will show that his incomeor the last year on these stock-hold incs has. heen rather more than $55,000 daily, includ ing Sundays and holidays, or nearly $40 a minute. Mr. Carnegie's income f o r the year, especially if it in cludes the sums turned over to him in connection with his recent retirement from ac tive connection with his co lossal business, has probably been much large. floth these men of fnbu- ous millions were poor boys, the one a modestly paid clerk in a St. Louis commis sion house, the other a tele graph messenger boy in Pitts bug, earning onlj a few dol lars a week. Both have been munificent with their chanties, Each has given away within twen ty-five ye a'S probably not ess than $25,000,000. RcmarkableCnres of Rheumatism. Rutherfordton, N.

His earliest pos sessions consisted of leBS than half a dozn volumes a pio neer's library. x First, of course, was the Bl ble, a whole library in itself, if properly understood, and containing every sort of liter ature stories, poems, dra mas, addresses, orations, his tories, some simple enough or the youngest child, oth ers taxing the wisdom of the. earned. Second was 'Pil s grim's Progress," with its quaint characters and vivid Bcenes related in simple, vig orous English. "Aesop's Fa bles" was a third; and Intro duced the log-cabin boy to a wonderful range of charac tersthe gods of mythology, the different ranks and class es of mankind, and eyery an imal under thesun Fourth, was a History of the United States in which there was the charm of truth and more modern tone, and from which were learned the lessons of patriotism that Lincoln's manhood put. into action. Last came Weetns- "Life of Washington" a queer, stilted book, but one full of detail that made Washington seem a living example.,. These five books were the beginning of Lincoln's ednca tion; and what wise man has outgrown them all? From the Bible, Pilgrim's Progress and Aesop's Fables the boy Lincolu learned the power and bounty of plain English works, and saw that the grandest thoughts and the most poetic imaginings needed only tho strong littlo words of every day. When, therefore, in the later life he wished to be sure he under stood any matter it became his custom to translate it in to words such as a child can understand.
