The total of arrests for drunken
ness in this city during the year
1874, was 1892, an excess of 369
over 1873. It is q curious fact
that the late Superintendent of
Police assigns the Crusade as one
of the causes of this excess That
il should have increased intemper-
ance is, however, not surprising,
because in periods of popular ex-
element, men addicted to drink
indulge more freely than when the
social sea is calm. It is a sort of
reflex action. But If it should be
shown that the consumption of
intoxicating liquors has been large
" increased since the Crusade, and
there are symptoms of that in the
multiplication of saloons, we shall
be better able to judge OF the
practical effect and benefit of that

The Smith Family.

The 'sSmith method" of calcula-
ting the population of cities may
be new to some readers. Chicago
and st. Louis, those jealous rivals,
have been trying it. It is claimed
in the United States there is one
in every $40 persons. The ST.
Louis directory shows 9O6 Smiths,
and by applying the other factor
in calculation the population is
shown to be 1885, $40 This being
published in q st. Louis paper, a
Chicago editor rises to remark
that the Smith family there ma
terializes much better than that.
He finds 1880 Smiths, and 48
Smyths, SHIFTS, Sehmidts, etc,
making in all 1,438. He multiplies
by $40 and behold Chicago's popu.
lation looms up to TIC, $50.

The Democracy offers no prom
Use of reform and no chance for the

despotic as ever. It puts allegi

And the only outcome from its
victories in the elections thus far is
to show that it is as corrupt as
when it had long held power, and
that it is irreformable. It cannot
offer a single proposition on any

We had the pleasure to see the
newly made twin brides at the
Gibson House, last night, and
must confess that a more perfect
exemplifcation of the French story
of Girofe Girofa could hardly ex-
list. They were at supper with
their husbands last night when we
saw them, and a nice little tea
party the four made The bride
grooms are brothers, but not
twins. It is not often in lifetime
that one is permitted to see two
brothers married to twin sisters.
The husbands are easily distin-
guished the one from the other.
The elder one wears full whiskers,
while the younger has simply
mustache. The trouble to be ap-
pretended is in the sameness of
the wives, and very pretty same
ness it is. To usea homely phrase,
they are as like as two peas. To
describe one 7vould be to describe
both. They are medium size, per-
feet brunettes, dress exactly alike,
and seem to be about twenty years
old. Beauty has richly endowed
these fair brides and it's dimpled
seal is in the cheeks of each. How,
in tie order of the human passion,
it came to pass that either of the
husbands could fall III love with
his wife without falling in love at
the same time with her sister,
passes our understanding. It has
been suggested that each of the
Morgan brothers fell in love with
the Stuart sisters, and, to settle the
matter, put their sweethearts in
bag, shook EN- up, and drew cuts
for the first one out We suppose
they know, but we don't see how
either of them knows to which one
of the twins he is married. They
came to supper and by judicions
assortment, each at the right hand
of husband. When they went out
of the dining room one couple was
allowed to get some distance in
advance before the other started,

An Ancient Epitaph.

A quaint and interesting repre-
sentation of the style of lettering
and embellishing tombstones in
England two centuries ago, says
the Detroit Free Press,is furnished
by an impression (now in the pos
session of George Osborn, of De
troit), taken with printers ink and
proof block from the marble
covering of a grave in an old
churchyard near London. In the
center, near the head of the imprint
are full likenesses of Mr.. George
Coles and his two wives, one on
either side, and beneath them, in
separate panels, are the ikenesses
of their twelve children-three by
the first wife being IN the first
panel, and nine by the second wife
in the other. They are all cla.l in
antiquated costume; beneath them
two hands are clasped in q "love-
knot" followed by these lines:
Farewell, trve friends, reader understand
By this mysterious knott of hand in hand
This emblem doth (what friends must fayle
to doe)
Relate ovr friendshipp and its hrmness
too.
Svch was oyr love, not time but death doth
