The attempted assassination of the En-
peror Of Germany seems to have been the
work Of crazy Socialist, acting, probably,
without any authorization from the party
with which he was identified, but not the
less inspired by a creed which teaches,
with Seneca, that no sacrifice can be Of
fered more acceptable 10 humanity than
the blood of the kings. The tinsmith
Hoedel is not the first Socialist that has
attempted the. life of the Kaiser. If we
mistake not, a son of the eminent exile,
Karl Blind, some years ago, was guilty Of
the same execrable blunder, and with
eqaal lack of success. One would have
thought that by this time even the most
mole-eyed revolutionist in Europe would
have learned that assassination is the
mast unsatisfactory weapon that can be
employed to advance a cause. Even the
usurper Napoleap, execrated by the sober
sense of Paris, came near being the idol
of the capital after Felix Orsini threw the
murderous bombs under bis carriags.

THE Rockport (Indiana) people are not
disposed to be unreasonable with man,
fhe only means well. A performer in
circus tent at that place was trying TO
emulate William Tell, but missed the ap-
pie and killed small boy, who was play
ing outside the canvass. He was prompt,
ly Jet of, however, when it was shown
that be had not done deed Intentionally.
1t is not stated whether the Rockporl
Dogberry fined the father for allowing his
son to interrupt an "innocert amusement
by getting in the road of the Snowman,

THE END NOT YET.

The Electoral Commission, a tribuna
utterly unconstitutional, and without any
power or authority under the Constitution
decided that Hayes was elected Presiden
of the United States; but at the same time
the House of Representatives put on rec
ord its judgment that Mr.. Hayes was no
elected and that Mr.. Tilden was. Tht
simple truth is that the duty of Congress
to count the electoral votes in the election
OF 1876, as imposed by the Constitution
has never been performed. The matter is
not ended by any means.

WHAT THE GIRLS SHOULD BE DOING

The taste, skill and industry of the
daaghterso fthe family can hardly be put
TO better use during the coming month
than in devlcIng and executing floral adorn-
rnenls for the home. If the porches aud
verandas are Lot already furnished with
vines, don't delay another week, but put in
some roots of woodbine at once. What a
comfort 1t 10 In the hot days of summer to
have vine-curtained porch In which to sit.
Then there is the arrangement of flower
baskets to look after. For fifteen or twen-
ty cents each very serv!ceable wire baskets
can now be had; and a half dozen OF the em
filed with suitable plants and vines will do
great way toward rendering the dooryard
and porches attractive. Rose culture
ought to be added to the omplisbments
Of our girls. "a rosebud garden cf girls"
is very pretty poetry; but q garden-bed Of
ros's, with 9 bright girl tending 1t, is an

TRAMPs AS CITIZENS.

The only security for the public peac'
is to rigidly exclude from trade and work
ipgmen's organization professed working
men who will no. work when they can ge
work, and secure the enactment of laws
for employing undoubted tramps and out
laws in compulsory labor for the State
Until such measures shall be taken, society
in this country will be constantly disturbed
by senseless agitation that cannot fail tc
result in popular disorder.

THE WOMAN SHOULD NOT BE
- HANGED.

When man Stays the betrayer of his
wife, juries acquit him on any plea that
seems most plausible. In Georgia, how
ever, when wife kills the woman who
seeks to rob her Of her husbands fidelity
the jury conyicts her Of murder and the
Judge sentences her to be hanged. There
is an inequality in this system of admins
tering 'justice," says the New York Star,
that must impress the most ordinary mind
Mrs. Kate Southern stabbed her rival,
Miss Cowart, at ball. On the trial i,
was proved that Miss c, provoked the
wife's jealousy by all the arts she could

suit of the opening of the bids will not be
declared until Secretary Sherman and Su-
pervising- Architect Hill returns, it is known
that brother in-law Of Hon. Casey Young
