Anti-Liquor Legislation.

A bill just passed by both
houses Of the Missouri Legisla-
ture, on the subject of selling
liquor to minors and inebriates,
deserves to be classed with the
other severe anti-liquor enact
ments of this country, the fea-
lures of which are stated by the
St. Louis Republican as follows:
cit provides that the selling or
giving intoxicating liquor to
any minor or habitual drunkard,
after warning rom the wife, pa
rent, brother, sister or guardian,
shall be an ofense punishable
with a fine of not less than $40,
nor more than $500, and forfeit
ure of license. If the clerk OF
agent Of a druggist, merchant
or dram-shop keeper shall yio-
late the law, it viii be held a
violation by his employer, and
the penalty be inflicted on the
latter. The effect Of this law:
and other similar acts in Prac-
tice in Ohio and Illinois, Is tC
throw the responsibility on the
sellers of liquors instead of the
drinkers. 1t gives to the im
mediate. relations OF minors and
inebriates very large contro
over the subject.

An Incident of the Rebel

From the New York Graphic.


About twenty years ago, or
in the year 1854, planter liv-
ing near Houston, Texas, WAS in
spired for adventure by the
current stories of wonderful
goId-fndings at Pixies Peak,
and importrmed from his wife
her consent to his departure
While ostensibly thrifty, the
plantation was really encum-
bered by debt, and some new fl
nancial departure seemed neces-

haps this was the final reason
inducing Mrs. Du Bosses as
sent. At any rate, the planter
started for the distant mining
country, after taxing. the famni-

very home Of his flesh and blood
upon it. Du Bose was not sue
cessful in it. His letters from
the Peak told Of continued dis
appointment and hardship,
though ever expressive Of 9 de-
termination to fight the Battle

tient and devoted wife, and an
infant son, born a year before
the amateurs departure, knew
many denials at home in the eHi-
gencies of the embarrassed es-
tate, and could only respond
to the discouragIngmessages OF
the husband and father with
love and prayer. d.

dence, back and forth until the

tions of war in 1861 cutoff al

Mrs. Du Bose had been obliget

died soon after the battle OF

fell to the charge OF his aunt.

of the penitentiary, and give
him a sort of a Sunday-school
lecture. But he would never
pardon a man who had used a
knife or pistol to take the life
of a fellow-man. He would let
them hang every time, for he is
opposed to the half-civilized-
no, heathenish-custom they
have of cutting and shooting.
He would also be the friend of
the temperance people, no IN
significant number now, for he
is Il temperance man, and never
touches liquor. Looking at the
prospect in all points of view,
it is clear that there might a
worse Governor arise than Hor-
ace Maynard.
AS for Andrew johnson we
know that he is the leader Of a
party Of forty thousand voters,
and that he wants to. so to the
Senate His voters and The Re
pubIicans, IF they would form
an alliance, could control the
politics of Tennessee as effectu-
ally as the Republicans control
Massachusetts. Why should
they not unite and take COM
plete control of the ''machine~
When victory is within such
easy reach why notgo forth and
pluck it? No harm could come
from sending Johnsonfte the
Senate. His integrity has, ney-
er been questioned, even by his
worst enemies. Throughout his
long public career he never
stole anything, never entered
into any sort of a combination
to swindle the people, never vo-
ted TO increase his own pay and
never accepted a present while
in office. The example of such
Il man is needed in Washington.
If he had been in the Senate
last wear he would have saved
three millions of dollars to the
people by defeating the pas
sage of that infamous back-pay
steal, It.passed by a majority
of only two or three, and he
would have put Tennessee on
record against it instead of for
it. There was a time in he his
tory of that iniquitous measure
when the change of one Sena-
tor would have defeatedsit.
The people are oppressed with
debt and taxes. The Sheriff and
tax-gatherer go hand in hand
over the country, and eYeryoth-
erman owes more than he cal
pay. At such times there is {
universal desire to put men IL
office who believe IN low sala-
ries and retrenchment. John
son, all his life, has been the
advocate Of these, and therein
is his strength with the toiline
: masses.
Perhaps, after all, to secure
his election, the johnson meI
may be willing to unite witt
the Republicans, and the Re
publicans to secure the election
of Maynard, may be willing t.

The Vendome Column.

From the London GLOBE
The Nendome Column is finished. All
that is wanting now is the statue, but thai
will have to await political events 1t
would be maniiestly absurd to place any
other statue on IA monument dedicated to
Napoleon than one of the Emperor,
Moreover, the vote of the Assembly de,
cided that the column should be restored
to its former state" But it is impossible
to predict what folly the French may com
nit. A French paper gives romantic ae-
count ot the statue, well known to English
men, which surm0unted the column uhder
the Second Empire. Originally the work
of Chaudet, it was removed In 1919 TO DC
melted down, and to furnish the bronze Tor
the statue of Henry ~ The worknen
then Bonapartists, dubbed together TO buy
bronze to replace the metal which was
sacred to them, and with which they madea
several reduced copies OF the original
statue. II is said that ten Of these staruct-
ties are to this day in the left leg OF the
good King Henry. The little Victory,
which the Emperor held in his hand, es
capped the breaking up, and was discover
cd some years atterward. In 1882 the
statue was replaced, tAut il was the Emper
or as the Little Corporal who in singu-
larly bad taste figured on the summit Of a
column which is an imitation Of the pillar
of Trajan at Rome. When Napoleon Ill.
wished TO restore the work Of Chaudet, it
was Entrusted to NJ. Dumont, who was for
tunatc enough to be able to replace the
original Victory in Caesars hand. After
the overthrow of the column by the Com
munists, all the pieces of the statue were
recovered except the Victory. a com
pletc model, however, exists in the artist $
studio, The rebuilding Of the column be.
gan eighteen months ago, and has cost
100000 francs, the sum voted for it, be
sides a supplementary SUM for paving. =
Seven hundred pieces of bronze had to be
pieced together again, and each plate was
made good separately Here nose had
to be replaced, or leg, or an entire figure
So exceptional is this kind of work, that
there is no precise term in art or manutac-
lures to describe it adequately. ;. 1t Is not
unlikely that the Parisians, delighted at
seeing one of their most beautiful monu-
ments restored to them almost unlnJuredl'
may hasten on the rebuilding OF the Iul'
cries and the Hotel de Vile.
