1HR GLASGOW POISONING CASs.-The New York
Herald says there is An important moral to be
deduced from the Of Madeleine Smith that has
recently absorbed public attention in Scotland
I'VE know with what dangers young women arc en-
virnned in our fashionable hotels and boarding
houses. Romance reading, shopping promeuading
and other frivolous occupations engage all their
time, and the tasks and habits thus engendered
make them too often easy victims Of some of the
swarms of adventures of all nations who are on the
watch for the slightest indication of laxity OF in
discretion on their part. Under no other systum in
the civilized world are opportunities for seduction
greater than that system of hotel and boarding
house life which American society encourages
When such a ttdSoH as that Of EAngelier and Made
leine Smith could be carried on in her fathers
house aud in Scotch city where social fOrmalities
are 80 strict, how comparatively easy can such
things take place in other cities with persons who
know little OF the sanctites that surround a home
and who grow up with ths smallest possible sub
jection To parental supervision. Every community
is infested with gay, fashionable smooth-topgupt
villains. who regard the ruin of "A woman as one Of
the most laudabe and housrins deeds that they can
accomplish. If they happen 10 speak in foreign
tongue. much the greater chance of their sue
cess; for the mystery that invariably hangs around
their past, aud the interest that attaches to one

Mr, Bodtsco he evinces. both by his marriage with
an accomplished daughter of Massachusetts and
by his associations aud manners, the desire Of his
