Every summer he gives a lawn party to which all fashionable London goes. It was at one of these parties that Labby delivered himself of the appended joke.

The man who always figures out results and tabulates statements was nosing around the platform, when he ran Into an engineer whose locomotive was resting on tho siding. Ho pumped him awhile on railroading, and they finally got to the subject of speed.

"Speed is all right," said the engineer, "but it ain't everything it looks." "What do you mean by that?" asked the figure man. "Well, I mean that tho time made between places ain't al trays according to tho distance. For instance, this division I'm running on is ten miles shorter than when.1 came hero three years ago." The figure man looked surprised. "It's done, yon see," went on the engineer, "by shortening the road. They built at first in a hurry, picking out tho easiest places and that sort, and then afterward they began taking in curves and going through hills and so on, making it shorter every year.

Why, the distance is forty miles less between Chicago and St. Joe, than it used to be." "How long ago, say?" inquired the figure man with great interest, taking out his pencil and paper. "About four years ago, I guess," ventured tho engineer. "Um um let me see," said the figure man, calculating. "At present St.

Joe, is about 800 miles southwest of Chicago, and if they keep on shortening tho distance at the rate you mention, say for fifty years, St. Joe will have i moved up somewhere in tho neighborhood of Gladwin county, Mich. I guess I'll make a note of that. You don't care if i uso-your name, do you?" But tho engineer did, and tho way he did was reprehensibly impolite, and the figure man walked off down "the platform and tackled the baggagemaster. Detroit Free Press.

They Will -Soon -Hold Their -tional Conventions. Na St. John "Won't Rua on tho Cold "Water Ticket The Alliance "Men Have Several Goad Men In View. COFTBIGHT, 1833. When the two great parties shall have partially settled their factional differences, when their platforms shall have been framed and their candidates announced, when they Ehall have declared ready for the fray, armed cap-a-pio for a great battle of issues, when the defeated shall have quaffed to the dregs the bitter cup of political disappointment and chagrin, when the successful ones shall have tasted of the sweet nectar of party approbation, aye, even while Hector and Ajax are arming and while Achilles mayhap still sulks in his tent, will be heard voices in the political wilderness of two other hosts, one untried in a national campaign, the other old in de feat, but as buoyant with hope as when it first sprung its prohibition issue upon the country.

And to go in the midst of these alliance and prohibition ranks is to be convinced that they are in earnest and as bitter in their own factional strifes as though they -were old as the country and had crowned effort with victory time and again. I recently had a chat with Samuel Dickie, chairman of the prohibition national committee, and after he had told me that John P. St. John had absolutely declined a renomination to the first place on the ticket I wandered over to tho newspaper headquarters of the prohibitionists in Astor place. There I was told that John P.

St. John would surely be nominated. Evidently they did not care to accept his absolute declination as final. And hero occurred an amusing little incident. I had plied the editor of the great prohibitionist organ wiiJi queries as to tho campaign and as to candidates other than John P.

St. John. He stopped suddenly in the midst of all and blurted out: "You can't got any more information out of me. I guess you have been sent from the national headquarters to pump us." It was the first time in my life that I had been taken for a prohibitionist, and 1 I assured tho gentlemen that I had in no wav misrepresented mvself. But nothing could induce him to say other than: "Read our paper.

That is all I can tell you." I ascertained later that Mr. Funk and other enthusiastic prohibitionists had, x. fw tattTllK, PofMSlt prepared a ticket headed by St. John and endin? up with ex-Congressman Bidwell, of California. They had ar gued among themselves that Blaine and Cleveland would run again, and tho suggestion came naturally enough: Why not make it Blaine, Cleveland and St.

John, as it was in 188-1? But John P. St- John has decided against tho plan; and I was shown a letter in which his refusal to ran was put in unequivocal terms. Mr. Dickie was kind enough to writo out for me his views on the impossibility of a coalition with tho people's party, which is appended hereto. But when it came to a discussion of candidates he called off to mo the names of tho presidential and vice presidential possibilities.

"For president," said he, "we will nominate either H. Clay Basoom, of J. Demurest, of New York; Gen. John Bidwell, of California; Walter B. Hill, of Macon, or J.

B. Hobbs, of Chicago. "You can be sure the next vice president nominee will be chosen from Mnninqs among the following: Sam Small, ai Georgia; George W. Baine, of Kentucky; A A. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, or A.

G. WoHanburger, of Elsewhere the name of Dr. D. G. Keeley, of Tennessee, and CoL Ely F.

Bitter, of Indiana, were mentioned to me as possible presidential nominees. The prohibition national committee is fighting all tall; of a coalition with the people's party, the pet movement of Gen. Weaver, of Iowa. But that this movement is not chimerical was proven to me when I read the address 01 tne so-called executive committee 01 the "national reformers." This calls a conference for June 2S, at Cincinnati, the day previous to the convention of the prohibitionists. The address says, among other things: "Tfce object or the aadosal rcforcacrs has cot hcea to malntala aa additional poUtfeal iurtr, hut, set forth la their first cosvestioa ai Chi-cajo la 1SS3, sad la their secoad iti St "Louis ia 1SS0, at which aiteca states have teea repre-seatcd.

it has beea to ualto tse ajcrMsive re-fomTorcesot the cation oathe Siaa, laad, transportation ot suSrajre reionas aad sapprcs-sioaof the liauor tratac." G. M. Miller, of Chicago, will urcsida jr itf'-w mzr at this conference, -which is to be at the Palace -hotel, in Cincinnati, and which judging from the utterances of Mr. Dickie and others, will be absolutely futile. The prohibition convention -will held on the 29th of this month tha Springer Music Hall of Cincinnati, on the site of the old exposition building in which II.

B. Hayes was nominated and in which Uobert G. Ingersoll delivered his famous "Plumed Knight" nominating speech. It was in the present music hall that Hancock was nominated. There also the labor conference took place out of which came the people's party.

The hall.eat3 ten thousand, and as the delegates will number between a thousand and eleven hundred there will be seats enough for the enthusiasts But tho echoes of the prohibition convention and the reform conference will still be ringing in the western air when the people's party will make its bow at Omaha on July 2. Ignatius Donnelly will be there as a delegate at large from Minnesota; T. V. Powderly will be at the head and front -of Pennsylvania's cohorts; J. B.

Weaver will voice Iowa's claims. Congressmen Watson, Simpson, Otis and Livingston will be there. Sd will the alliance senators J. -H. Kyle, of South Dakota, and W.

A Peffer, of Kansas. Massachusetts will be represented among others by Henry Winn, Herbert Mcintosh, T. A. Watson, J. D.

Cadle and William Shields. President Gon pers, of the Federation of Labor, will probably go from "New York. Ben Terrill will be another shining light in the convention halL The party has determined to make its nominations on July 4, and to insure this Chairman E. H. Taubeneck, of the national committee, will call the convention to order in the Coliseum building on July 8 for the purpose of effecting a temporary organisation only.

After tho welcome by Mayor Bemis and the naming of officers the gathering will resolve itself into a mass meeting and listen to speeches from all the leading men present. "Now as to the platform, i can toll you a -good deal more than I can about candidates," said one of the New York people's party enthusiasts. "That will be simply a reaffirmation of what was so well stated at the St. Louis conference. Thero was no equivocation then and there will be none now.

As to candidates, it is possible that we may surprise the older parties by nominating a man who now represents a coast state in the senate and who is understood to be a republican. He is immensely wealthy, but we have been given to understand that he coincided heall7 W1h our views on financial and industrial topics, "But we have Gov. Tilman, of South Carolina, also in view. We want and will not be long in centering on the strongest name in the field. The south favors Congressman Livingston, but I believe he is too good a democrat to pose as a candidate of the new party.

Livingston is a politician first and an alliance man afterward. "Then, if the women suffragists finally nominate their candidates, we will be ready for a high old political time, with a candidate and a platform tb suit the tastes of the most fastidious." This is what Chairman Dickie wrote about the consolidation of prohibition and alliance interests: Thero is no prospect or a consolidation of prohibition end alliance interests for the campaign of 18Q2L Thisdocs not grow out of any lack of interest oa the part of tho prohibitionists in many of tho reforms for which tho peop'o's party stands. Many beliovo that wo are a better anti-monopoly party than thoy. That is, there can bo no industrial reform while the saloon i3 in tho saddle. Tho saloon breeds tho purchasablo voter and is the convenient clearing- house for tho boodle politician.

Organized -wealth can buv its way to power so long as tho saloon controls political parties. The peoplo'e party at Its St. Louis conference manifested no disposition to indorse the principle of prohibition end prao- tically puts itself in tho field as a third among tho parties proposing to divide tho whislry vote of the nation. Many of its leaders, and I havo no doubt a majority of its rank and file, believe In tho principle and policy of prohibition, but the party contains a rninoritT whom the major-ltj dare- not offend, and who wiU not consent that their party organization shall be placed in an attitude of open hostility to tho liquor trafa. It is this attitude of the people'a pa-ty which renders union with tho prohibl-t'onibts Impossible.

Added to this are some financial vagaries TThioh do not commend them-Eelves to the average prohibitionist as either or practicable. The time may ccme, and probably will come, when the various reform organizations will be able to unite their forces, but that time will come only by a process of leveling up to the highest standard rather than tho reverse. The prohibitionist "party stands firs of all for pohibition. with Its consequent emancipation or political affairs from saloon domination. It stands as well for a more complete control of corporations, for legislation that Bhall proteot and clovate labor, and last, though by no means least, it believes la placing tho ballot In the haads of women For these principles it has contended in the past and it will desert none of them in tho future.
