THE Young Democracy of the
San Francisco Central Club, with
out dissenting voice. have adopt
ed an able report conde enning the
new Constitution. Many of the
conclusions in this paper are so
pertinent to the Issues of the day,
and they are so admirably ex-
pressed, that we shall probably re-
view it at length. 1t was prepared
by such men as Col. Stuart M. Tay.

AN evening contemporary is at
last at rest. It announces that the
new Constitution is to be adopted.
1t don't even entertain the idea of
doubt. Rosy certainty tinges all
its Vaccinations. Such thing as
a slip betwixt The cup and the lip
is impossible. 1t is pleasant to dis.
card the subjunctive and potential
moods from ones methods ofspeech
and get down to the downright i'm
perative. The people simply must
60 and vote for the new Constitu-
ton, nil they,will they. Now this
is all very fine on paper, but it
strikes us that the pride of proph.
ecy, like other kinds of pride. may
60 before fail. Every day the
sentiment is gaining ground
amongst sensible people that it Is
far better to suffer the Ills we have
than fly to others that we know not
of-and they are unuumbered in
the new Constitution. If the Con-
stitutlonal Convention had not
flched from the people fifty seven
of the days which the Legislature
contemplated that they should
have in which to consider the new
instrument it would be beaten by
an overwhelming majority. As it is,
II those who have the real welfare OF
the State at heart work it will be
beaten by a satisfactory vote. We
think 1t is beaten now unless its
partizaps exhibit an objectionable
negligence.

That Big Fec

Sometime since q number. of Detroit,
lawyers invested in and nailed up at
their desks a sign reading that they were
busy Just then but would see the visitor later
The signs were doing all the good hoped
for, when one day withered-up o Id man
enterad an Office, gazed stupidity around
ued at last inquired:
kin 1 see the lawyer for few min
utes ?" ~ III {-.-
He had hook under his arm and tina,
settled his case His eyes were directed tC
the sign, and after reading it he turned
away, saying:
"Wall, if you're very busy won't stop
1t was a case where there was about forty
thousand dollars at stake, and"
But he was out in the hall by that time
and he didn't seem to hear the invitation
to come back. The lawyer, vexed and
annoyed. tore down the sign at once and
hoped the old man might return. SURE
enough, he entered the Office again yester
day, and not seeing the sign he sat down
and asked:
Every busy this morning!"
"Oh, no-plenty of timc." was the reply
"Sure won't annoy you:"
"Oh, you can't annoy ne at all. l shall
listen TO you with the greatest pleasure.
"Wall, then," said the old man as HI
slowly undid his book, I'D like to cal
your attention to this Life of Napoleon
Il is said that the engravings alone cos
forty thousand dollars. We are selling

The attorney grew white around th'
mouth, and asking to be excused for ;
moment he put on his hat and went LOW

Too much In a Name.

Gentlemen who go about the world bur
dened with names OF great length and un-
wieldncss should take courage. A young
man in Chicago has set them valuable
example His name was Charles Oliver
Brewster Brockaway. His mother III a
brief season of gratitude, had pinned this
potential patronymic to him. She had
been cured Of some serious malady by one
DIR. Charles Oliver Brewster. and by way
of perpetrating the name of her benefac-
tor, she afflicted it upon her helpless soa.
The other day the young man, weary
of his load, appeared in the superior
court of Chicago, and asked for an
abridgemenf He set forth in his petition
that his "concatenated name could not be
spoken without great labor of speech and
great use of time, nor could il be written
without knowledge and skill in English
literature" These reasons were thought
sufficient by the court, and at the petition
res instance he was permitted to lop off
the Brockaway, there being too many of
that name already. 1t has been suggested
that the young man should have gone a
step further, suppressed the "Oliver' and
stood before an admiring world as plain
Charles Brrwster, with license to condense
the Charles in case of urgency. The
tendency to overname children is very
great. and it is nuisance against which
civilization should protest. There Is moth
ing so simple and effective as simple chris
tian names. Men with double names are
always tempted to divide them in the mid
die, and this is itself an abomination against
which civilization should protest, A fop-
pish title, such as ]. Braithwaite Bogar-
dus, or Joyce B. Burjoyce St. Arnaud,
when compared with such a simple and
powerful name as John Smith, is as the
bedeckcd and bedIzened, drum major to
the unostentatious Napoleon in gray over

A Big Financial Operation.

NJ. Leon Say is understood to be en-
gagged in preparing a detailed narrative of
one of the largest financial operations on
record-the repayment OF the debt which
the state owed the bank of France. 1t
may be remembered that after the Fran
co-German war the government was
obliged TO borrow no less a sum than
|, $50, 100000 francs, or over e62, 600 900,
to meet the first demands of the invader.
The whole of this sum has now been re-
turned to the bank,th last 20, ,000, 600 francs
having been paid in, about six weeks ago.
In spite of the Commune, which
at one time threatened the obstruction Of
the bank and the ruin of France, and of
violent political discussions followed
by ministerial changes, the gigantic oper-
alton in question was accomplished with
marvellous regularity. The circulation Of
bank notes was never disturbed, and the
bank. authorized by law, was enabled to
increase its paper issue without seeing its
notes suffer any depreciation. The conse.
quence naturally was that the forced cur
rency was merely nominal, and that few
persons were aware that il was legally
abolished on the 1st of January last. After
the war. notes of I, 2, 8, 5, 20, so and 100
francs were in circulation. Gradually the
smaller notes disappeared, and now it is
not easy to obtain even 1O0-franc notes
while the metallic reserve in the bank is
larger than 1t was at the close Of the em

A Japanese Theatre.

The Sendai episode is followed by dis
play that would thrill with ecstacy the
devotee of Surry or Bower. il is melo
drama Of the most approved order Of tur-
pitude and ferocity-crowded with crime,
stepped in blood and resonant with thun.
der from beginning to end. And yet it is
founded upon events Of very recent and
undoubted occurrence. 1t is, indeed, an
accurate theatrical recital Of career Of a
notorious ma,efactor, woman named o.
Den. whose amazing atrocities began to
startle the people of Toxic and the neigh
borhood in the early part of the Meiji
period; who was detected and arrested
after having murdered night and left for
two or three years, and whose long i'm
prisonmcnt-during which sne resisted all
efforts to elicit a confession-cnded with
her execution at SEMI, very short time
ago. The length of the piece, and the
great number of scenes of which it is com
posed, make it impossible for US TO de.
scribe il in detail; but those who desire to
witness 1t will have no difficulty in COM
what passes before them, for
