But there are many intelligent people who believe that a more furrcaching reform would be the abolishment of the whole system of choosing presidential electors and. the voting by the people, at large for a presi- dent, just as they now vote for u gov- emor. Then and Now. There died lately in Philadelphia a bright, gentle woman who had lived to the age of 88. She was one of the orig inal opponents of American slavery, having taken up the abolitionists' cause when she was a schoolgirl. She never was much before the pub- lic as a speaker. Her work was to be secretary of antislavery societies and to help with fairs to raise funds for free- ing the negro. The antislavery fairs were an important part of the work. At first gho‘y cacitcd nothing but ridi. culo frornthe public. By degrees, how-' ever, they drew more attention, and at last they became «popular enough to be mobbed. The rougbs and the toughs of 40 years ago in Philadelphia attacked the fairs and attempted to break them up by violence, fill at length it became difl‘lcult to get a hall in which to hold them. In 1859 one of the last of the fairs began in Concert ball. A large baunu was stretched across Chestnut street to advertise the bazaar. The mob resented the appearance of this banner because of the incendiary inscription upon it. Excitement grew, and finally the authorities ordered it removed as dangerous to the public peace. Miss Grow visited the mayor and pleaded with him in vein. The banner was taken down, a'sherif! ordered the people all out of the hall and closed its doors. The incendiary banner contained nothing more than a picture of Liberty bell with .its famous inscription, “Pro- claim liberty throughout all the land, to all the inhabitants thereof." That was in 1,850. In 1894 the -Liberty bell iisclf made a triumphs] tour through the south to the Atlanta exposition and was greeted with joy and acclamation by people who thronged to see it wher- ever it passed. ' Are we to have at Washington agrcst university to represent each of the wealthy and powerful religious denomi- nations in the United States? If so, then Washington will become even more fa- mous as a center of learning t on of politics. The Roman Catholic uni crsity is in operation and flourishing already. The laying of the cornerstone Oct. 21 of the Hall of History, as it will be called, is the beginning of the great Methodist university, which will rival any in this country or probably in any country. It is to be called the American university. Already in its beginning the enterprise has to its credit the sure income of $1,- 040,000. No less eminent a landscape crtist thanu Frederick Law Olmstead will lay ed and beautify the grounds. The charter of the American university declares it will be open to all students, without distinction of race, sex or creed. In this respect it will be superior to either the Roman Catholic nuivcnityor the Colombian, which precede it in order of time.

When a girl is selected, the beginsby using a maid of bones- "with the cipher," and wears on her left shodlder the empress’ monogram embroidered on a light blue ribbon. It has been said that at the Russian court the oldest nobles are in reality nothing but higher slaves, ruled. . as much as the lowest of peasants by the autocratic will of the sovereign. The wearing of the cipher may be only a sign of an earlier serfdorn. The costume which ‘ the molds wear on state mansions is gor- geous. "It consists of a skirt of white satin, ‘ fastened from throat to foot with jeweled buttons. Over this is worn an over-skirt of red velvet with gold figures and a long train and with wide pagoda sleeves. The most characteristic part of the costume is the headdress, a kind of diadcm called ka- kocbnik, recalling by its shape the sta- phanc of the ancient Samoycdo Jones. The kakochnik with the pnvonik, which aris- tocratic nurscmaids still wear in St. Pc- tersburg and Moscow, is the only part of the great Russian costume imrrowed for the nationaldrcsls. It is of red velvet like the tonic, and covered with jewels. To it is attached a long white veil of tulle, which sweeps behind in the gilded folds of the train. This splendor lasts only for a time, how- ever. Aftcr a few years the maid of horior “with the cipher” is promoted to a maid of honor “with the portrait, ” and ex- changes the rich crimson oversklrt for one more quiet, of emerald green, embroidered in silver. To make up for it the czarina’ allows the substitution of her portrait set in diamonds for the monograms. Home. times also they receive the decoration of St. Catherine, an order established by Pc- tcr the Great forwomen only, as a recom- pense for services done to the court. _ As a general rule it is from among the daughters of general officers or high func- tionaries that the empress picks out her maids at her own pleasure. There are scve erul institutions in Russia for the educa- tion of these girls, resembling somewhat the schools of the Legion of Honor in France. The classes for the older girls are called nurseries. The pupils are there taught etiquette and the faultless manners on which their future depends. Their cos- tume is a simple woolen dress, with a silk- en apron. The upper part of the waist and the lower part of the sleeves can be detach- ed, however, and when the czar, the abso- lute rooster of these establishments, which , he supports from his own privy purse. ap- pears unexpectedly the young shoulders , and arms are at once laid bare. It must be a charming sight. The late Emperor Alexander I] is saidto have taken particu- lar delight in it. Saw the Comet With the Naked Eye. Dr. Lewis Swift, astronomer in charge of the Mount Lowe observatory and dis- coverer of comets. was interviewed in re. gard to his latest find and said: “At sunset on Sunday, Sept. 20, I saw an unknown luminous object with the naked eye about 1 degree cost of the sun. Examining it with an opera glass, a faint companion was visible. Both were seen by all the visitors at the hotel. My first thought was that it might be a small fire on the mountain, but a moment’s observa- tion dispelled this idea, for one-half of the sun was below nnd one-half above the mountain, and the object was still above the sun. It was also seen to descend and set, as did the sun four minutes previous- ly. Tuesday evening I assayed to examine them with the 45' inch comet seeker, but did not succeed until one-half the sun had sunk below the mountain, when it became visible, but whether it was the bright or the faint one I cannot tell. It is not an unheard of thing for a comet to break into several pieces, and, of course, it might be ' a case of this kind. Through the telescope it was no brighter than when seen with the naked eye on Sunday. I infer it was the companion. This time it was north of the sun instead of east as before. It was a strange adult. I hardly know what to make of it, but that it was a comet is certain. Both seem to be growing fainter. Silch a discovery has been made on two or three m‘t-osions heretofore.”--ls'sn Fran- cisco Examiner. Inn Mar-larch.
