SOMETHING FOR MAYOR COOPER.

To EDITOR THE HERALD
1 wish to ask a single question. When overtime
is made by men who employed in removing dirt.
garbage, ashes snow. into whose pocket does
the extra pay go? Certainly not into that Of the
men who do the work. Last payday there
quite at Headquarters. Men were there who
during the month had made Ave and six days
time. and who got not one cent for it. The excite
ment which arose was confined to the employees, for
were any one to attempt to argue the question be-
fore their sacred majesties" the employers. he
would doubtless have less to draw the following
month. Now, who gets the money? Is il not hard
for to work night and day. wear out his horse
by extra work and even deprive himself of rest on
Sunday the day appointed by the Creator for rest,
and derive benefit from it? This question is the
important just now as during the present
month O great deal of overtime has been made and
we who have made it would like to get little
recompense for it. By inserting this in your Com
plant Book you will be exposing fraud and doing
Justice to many hard working men. Yours respect.

Dramatic Tribulations of a
Tonsorial Artist.
CONTRASTING A TRUST DEED.
A Theatrical Managers Persis-
tent Legal Fight.

The allegations and counter charges in the suit
for limited divorce brought in the Court Of Common
Pleas by Mrs. Theresa Kempner against her hus-
band. Henry w. Kempner, exhibit a state of un-
wonted marital infelicity. Mr.. Kempner is the pro-
prietor of barber shop at No. % Chambers street,
and it is charged against him that at various times
during the past year he has beaten and choked his
wife, besides otherwise abusing her in most out
rageous manner 1t is further alleged that on the
10th inst. he deserted her and their two children.
In answer to these allegations the husband says that.
although he supported her, she finally drove him
from the house. On occasion he says she came
to his shop and threw spittoon at his head. which
but for the fortunate nterposon of his foreman and
a customer might have seriously injured him. The
case came before Judge Larremore yesterday in the
Court Of Common Pleas on motion on behalf of
Mrs. Kempner for alimony and counsel fee. Mr..
Morris s. Wise, who appeared for the plaintiff stated
that papers showed that the defendant left his
wife without food coal in the house. Mr.. Alfred
Steckler, who appeared on behalf of the husband,
stated that in addition to having always suitably
provided for his wife Mr. Kempner gave her $3.50
worth of 1ewelry. besides other presents He claimed
that the trouble between them wholly the wifes
fault and insisted that neither alimony counsel
fee should be allowed. At the conclusion of the
argument Judge Larremore took the papers, reserv-
ing his decision.

A WORD TO THE MISSISSIPPI
DFM0isIo Fr>.
DEMOCRATS.

Ii the Democratic party wants to
carry a single Northern State next year,
it should hasten to repudiate the course
Of those Mississippi Democrats who
drive off opposition candidates by VIC
lent measures. The Federal bayonet
51l posse is a mcch less formidable dam
ger to he Northern mind than the
buli-doZers shotgun In esse. If it gets
to be understood that the Democratic
party in the South will not allow Of the
existence Of any political opposition,
tbs NV rage Northern man will decide
that it is not the party to rule this
country It ceases to be Il question Of
party, and becomes one of civilization
and free government. We do net hes
itate to say that the course Of the
Mississippi Democrats, if persisted in,
merits the extreme penalty applicable
to a State which fails to maintain a
republican form Of government, and
justiies the employment of Federal
army if necessary, to enforce obedience
to the constitution.
