A True Friend OF Reform.

The Chicago Tribune was about the first
newspaper of prominence i'll the United
States to cut loose from the leadership of a
corrupt body of men who had obtained con
troll of the Republican party, and We're drag
gng it down to the lowest depths of deSra la
ton, and destroying the most vital Interests
of the people. No doubt it cost the Iiij"t'c
a pangto thus virtually cut loose from party
which it had helped to organize, and of which
it had been one of the boldost and ablest
champions. But it chose to cling to the
principles of the party, rather than to the
party name without its substance. terrible
outcry was raised at the time that the Tribune
had apostacized, and dire vengeance was Wis
tied upon it by many Republicans who have
since got their eyes open, aud now realize that
it wac only timely leading, where they have
since fastened to follow. The Tribune was
then, and is now, the fast friend of the pro-
ducing classes of this country, aStl the foe of
corrupt and designing men Hence it il with
pleasure we call attention to its prospectus i'll
another column, aud commend it to all who
wish to subscribe for an able honest and fear
less journal that s fully up to the require
ments of the time Wdukegdn (IU) Patriot.

was close and firm, yet very elastic.
The yarn of both warp and wool was
double, consisting OF two fine threads
twisted together. The wool was single.
The warp contained ninety threads to
the inch, the wool or weft only forty
four. The iineness of these materials,
after the manner of cotton yarn, was
about thirty hanks in the pound. The
subsequent examination of great va
riety of mummy clothes showed that the

A Tenants Obligation to Repair.

Leases not seldom contain q covenant
that the tenant shall keep the premises
in good order and repair. AS to just
what tins covenant may mean, however,
there is considerable difference of opin-
ion, and sometimes the intervention of
Il judge and jury are necessary to settle
the question. \ case of this kind has
been on trial in the Superior Court Of
Baltimore, in which the Judge, in charg-
ing the jury, described the legal aspect
OF the matter. The word keep he
said, implied an obligation to put the
premises in repair if they We're out Of
repair when received. and to keep them
so, for it would be idle to stipulate to
keep in repair what is not in repair, and
the covenant was, therefore, equivalent
to put and keep and deliver up" in
good order and repair. The real diff
Guilty, however, was in the words good
order and repair" These words, he
said, meant such It reasonable condition
of fitness as belongs to houses of the
age, class and condition, as good repair
for one might not be for another. II
was not necessary that an outgoing ten
ant should repaint and repaper, hUtonly
to keep the paint and paper i'll such con-
dition as is consistent with use; not al
low the house to be lefaced use it with
proper and reasonable care and deliver
it up as it may be left after such care.
The judge remarked that there was no
custom or rule OF law by which an out
going tenant was compelled to rcpaint
and repaper, unless under distinct
and well-detined agreement to that eff
feet. On the other hand, there is no
implication that the tenant shall keep
the premises us received. The obliga-
ton to keep in good order and repair
does not mean to keep the house in the
condition i'll which it is received, but in
II condition that is reasonable.

Fashion Notes.
VELVET is uncommonly cheap.


The old fashion of trimming silk
dresses with folds of the same has come
III once more.
TnE lace mania among the ladies has
in no wise abated, and all garments are
trimmed with it.
EVERYBODY who can will buy an In
dian shawl now, for, as statesmen say,
they are ridiculously cheap.
THERE was never such demand for
ostrich plumes rs now. No bonnet is
complete without one.
Double hem stitched handkerchicfs
of different widths are the latest. They
are almost too nice to be used
COLLARS have almost entirely gone
out of fashion. Nobody complains ex-
cept the unfortunate washerwomcn.
WAIST belts of the new color in Russia
leather (blue) have just been intro
duccd and will be exceedingly fashion
able.
The ladies are wearing the hair very
very low i'll the neck, and think bow
OF bright ribbon tied thereon quite
stylish.
ScorcH plaids have been put upon the
market again. Blue, green and black,
with yellow stripe, is the combination
SPRAYS of jet are extensively used to
trim the bonnet of the period. The
English jet is considered superior to all
others.
SAsHEs for evening dress are of wide
pink silk watercd ribbon, trimmed, or
rather covered, with white cluny lace
They are very beautiful and most
effective.

| have known Il great many cats, and
have never had occasion to change the
opinion [ first formed of them many
years ago. They are very grateful crea-
lures, seldom forgetting a Kindness. If
you take i'll Il starved cat ont of the
street, and gradually restore it to health
and comfort, it will never forget the OBJ
legation it is under to You. | have re-
peatedly done this, and have always
gained firm friend in the animal so
rescued from poverty.
Cats have very good manners they
like to say Good-morninG' to you
after their fashion, when they first see
you in the morning. Some people say
eats have no real attachment to the hui
man race this | know to be Il great
mistake. They love people, and are
very Jealous in their fononcss. Your
cat Will be very friendly out of doors
with your neighbours cat, but will by no
means allow her to come into your
house or be carressed by you, showing
great anxiety il You notice the stranger.
The purring noise that cats make to
express pleasure is very pleasant
sound, and never loud enough to dis
turb any one. Indeed, one great charm
in these animals is the noiselessness
with which they move about.
A French writer says that cat is the
only animal which is allowed entire lib
erty. We chain our dogs, we put birds
into cages but our cats go and come as
they please.
Cats are accused of two faults-of
stealing and being treacherous. The
best remedy for the first is to feed them
well. The charge OF treachery cannot
be borne out. If you hurt Il cat, she
thinks she has right to punish you for
it ; but it is not necessary to hurt them.
