There is an odd war going on between the
New York Herald and Mast, the artlst. Mast
opened the fight by some very effective carica-
lures Of Young Jim Bennett and his Cesar BUSH
ness, and the Herald in retort gives whole
columns Of its paper to the adroit depreciation
of Mast. One Of its strokes, in this way, was to
start subscriptions in behalf of Mast as an i'm.
pecunious artist, and the country papers have
taken the matter in sober earnest and are fully
Impressed with the idea that the renowned
caricsturist is in an exceedingly seedy and i'm
poverished condition. On the whole, however,
Mast has the best of it. for he has effectuslly
laughed the Cssarism sbsurdity out of the col
umns of the Herald. Now If he would only bring
his sharp pencil to bear to puncture the HeraIds
new tediousness, the chief justiceship interview
business, he would earn the thanks of a suffer
ing pu bic.

The parties in Huntington, Long Island. who
tarTed, maltreated and murdered the man Kel-
sey, have undertaken the transparent farce of
sending one of their number, named Banks, to
the pineries of Minnesota in quest of the muir
dered man, protesting that they had received
Information that he was concealed there. or
course, they knew well enough that their dead
victim could not be there, and the trick was
quite evidently devised to give the impression
that they believe him to be alive, and therefore
could not be guilty Of his murder

The New York Express notes a reduction on
the prices before the panic OF four cents per
pound on smoked hams, two cents on fresh
pork, two cents on corned beef, four cents on
pork sausages, two cents on lard, two cents on
Bologna ssusages, ditto on trpe, lamb and
mutton, three cents on butter, one cent on
cheese, four cents on turkies, seven cents on
chickens and two cents on butter. Our Wash
ington provision dealers have doubtless reduced
their prices to suit the times, and it would bring
them custom to advertise the fact.

According to the Mobile Register, they must
have intelligent jurors "way down in Ala
bsma." That journal is authority for saving
that jury in q late civil suit brought in a YER
let, "manslaughter in the first degree.D The
foreman explained. in delivering the verdict,
that As no one was killed they thought it better
to bring in verdict of IN snslsughter instead of
murder. The suit was a claim for $500 on some
business transaction, and there was nothing
criminal in connection with the case. This is
remarkable story, but we suspect the Register is
given to Joking.

Stock Raising.

The Prairie Farmer says that more
attention should be paid to breeding
and raising better stock. Breeding
from scrubs and common blood is
suicidal short-sightedness. It, it a
penny wise and a pound foolish
practice to use feeble and worthless
syearling bulls, when for 800 to $500
a neighborhood may be supplied with
the best blood 1t is not enough
that the pedigree is all right; that
is well as far as it goes, but it will
not compensate for serious defects
in form and organization. A bad
point in a thoroughbred is about as
sure to be reproduced in the offspring
as a good one; if either is "1xed,''
both are. When looking at fashiona-
bly, bred animals with a. view to pur-
chase, let young breeders bear this in
mind. A-

A tall blue-eyed girl, with loose,
brown curls floating from her face
like an aureole of amber brightness
and q slender throat, white and
smooth as mother Of pearl-that
was Valentin Bruce, as she sat by
the open French window, dreamily
watching the sunset flame melt into
opal pillows Of light.
And Colonel Mordaunt smoked his
despairing cigar, in the fragrant shad-
ows of the shrubbery and wondered
what fortunate mortal might be fated
to buy Valentin's wedding ring and
pay her millinery bills, and be her
humble slave and servitor thro' life.
Colonel Mordaunt tossed his cigar
in among the rose.acacis that skirt
the lawn, and began to select clus-
ter of moss roses, needless of the
thorns that pierced his unaccustomed
fingers.

''and moss roses are. certainly the
prettiest flowers that grow. 1 will

hers"

around the messy stems in place of a
ribbon, and sauntered carelessly up
the gravelled walk.

Been sentimentalizing out in the

over the chance of your taking

An Item that Every Man Should Read.


| We have probably all Of us met
with instances in which a word heed
lessly spoken against the reputation
of female has been magnifed by
malicious minds until the cloud
has been. dark enough to over
shadow her whole existence. To
those who are accustomed, not neces- 10
sarily from bad motives, but from
thoughtlessness-t0 speak lightly of
ladies' we recommend these hints as
worthy of consideration V z
Never use u lady's name in inn
proper places at an improper time, z
or in mixed company. Never make q
assertions about her that yea think
untrue, or illusions that you think
she herself would blush to hear. radf
When you meet with men who do ID
not scruple to make use of a wO-l g
mans name in q reckless and un- r
principled manner, shun them---they "
are the very worst members of the
community-men lost to every sense
of honor, every feeling Of humanity. IL
Many a good and worthy womans
character has been forever ruined
and her heart broken by lie manu- "
featured by some villain and repeat
ed where it should not have been,
and in the presence of those whose
little judgement could not deter
them from circulating the foul and
Dragging report.
A SANDER is soon propagated, and
the smallest thing derogatory to
woman's character will fly on the
wind, and magnify as it circulates,
until its monstrous weight crushes
the poor unconscious victim. Res
pect the name Of womani your
mother and sisters are women, and
as you would have their fair names
untarnished, and their lives unem-
bittered by the slanderer's foul and
corrupt tongue, heed the ills your r

your fellow creatures. ..-..-...- ss.T
