Lee has suffered consider ably with rheumatism this spring, and it has so affected him as to e&use him to be unable to Work, and he consequently got behind -with his corn planting.' Monday morning a coterie of his -; neighbors,' Thomas Bedsworth, Lea Jameson, John Sampson,. Thomas Harris'- and Hugh, Sampson, took their teams and went to Lee's Held- intent upon finishing breaking and planting the balance of his corn crop for him, and if it did not rain too heavily down that way it is safe to Bay the work was done "Raising" Him. There is a certain game, popular in" various portions of the country, whose distinguishing characteristic is "rais ing" your opponent. The New York Times tells this tale, which illustrates the operation in conversation: Captain Sigsbee tens of a conversation be once overheard between two marines who were arguing as to who. had tha least work to do on board a man-of-war. "It's the chaplain," said the' first. "How do you make that out?" asked the second. "Because he ain't got no work to do an all day to do it in." The second marine snorted his disgust. "You ain't got it right. Jack," said he. It's the ea'm of marines." w's Utatw 11, sy, as you sr, the eaap- IalnTk got nothing do ana ail day to do it isu but the cav'n of marines he ain't got anything to do and all day to do it in and a lieutenant of marines to naip hint to do it." A Tactful Kaiser. Some years ago. when William E, Gladstone, England's Grand Old Man, denominated Czar Nicholas of Russia and Kaiser. Wilhelm of Germany as "the two young despots of Europe," it was a catching collection of words, and people jumped lo the conclusion at once that here were two rulers who would rival the tyrant Dionyslus. Noth ing -ould be further from the truth. Kaiser Wilhelm was quite young when he ascended the throne of his ances tors. He practically succeeded Wil liam" the Great, his grandfather, as his father, the Emperor Friedrich "TJnser Fritz," as he wafftovingly called by his soldiers and his subjects only reigned 100 days. All sorts of dire predictions we made by prophets of evil as to what capers the young Kaiser Wilhelm would cut and as to what dire calami ties he would bring upon his country and upon the world all of which ma lign foretellings have proved to be without foundation, "baseless as' the fabric of a vision." It was said that the kaiser wanted a big army and a big navy in order to kick up a row with his neighbors. As shown by the event, nothing could be further from the truth. The reichstag, thoroughly in love with the fatherland, gave him a great . , , army ana a great navy, anu ue naa picked a quarrel with nobody yet-- In deed, he is one of the most peaceable of monarchs. He has asserted and maintained German rights, he has en couraged German art, he has enlarged German commerce, but he has accom plished these things not by force" and arms, but by the legitimate and less expensive methods of peace. From be ing feared as a dangerous kaiser, a fire brand prince, people are ooming to re gard him as a clear headed, progress ive, conservative ruler, as a most kind ly and peaceable neighbor, as one of the safest statesmen of Europe, tt is an old saying that "Peace hath ner vic tories no less renowned than wary" ' savina in which Kaiser Wilhelm can RefeM to Chief JnsOce shepherd, Hon.'

Wl'l cadets tor West Point and Annapolis, together with my experience as a mem ber f the board ef visitors to the Ns val academy st the recent cummenee ment exercises, turned my sttentlotr upon educational conditions la the United States. Of course enynoay mat does not pronounce a high flown eulo- gium upon the whole system readers himself liable to be;sttscked ss an enemy of public schools by a lot of peo ple who live off the public scboola: My own experience was this: It took two years to find a boy in the Ninth congressional district Of Missouri, which I have the honor to represent in e 'congress of the Dnlted State. Wno had the Intelligence and physical de velopment to stand an examiaaUoo for Wast Point and wko possessed grit en'sugh to stay there, and complett the course." As to Annapolis, it required four years .to find him. No law tonv pejs a" competitiTS egsminstlon. hut I ordered eompetlfive examination b cause by -that meansevery boy in th district would hare tn? equal chance with every other boy.. Of course I could ha?e plckedJavorlt hoys or the boys of favoritsr fathers and haTe ap toointed them, but I chose to order the competitive examlnationi and gt ery boy .a chance because I was a poor trtwn. dUt.
