fenced to receive fifty blows. The
Judge carefully explained to Janosz that
he might appeal to the Ober- Tribunal
should the sentence strike him as too
severe. Janosz took advantage of this
right. Meanwhile, however, his honor
caused the prisoner to be strapped
down to a bench in the court, and
personally supervised the full execution
of the sentence. A few weeks later the
Ober-Tribunal reduced the punishment
from fifty to five-and-twenty blows.
Forthwith the judge summoned Janosz
TO court. and ordered him to lie down
again on the bench and submit to the
punishment. In vain the
wretched appellant protested; "for,"
observed his honor, "the. DEGREES of our

RELIEF CLOSE ATHAND.

A good many of our esteemed contem-
poraries, the Kepubl cans we mean,
nust find q sweet consolation in the
fact that the political campaign Is near
ly completed, and that lew weeks
more will relieve them from the painful
necessity OF supporting q candidate foT
President whom they know TO be un-
worthy and weak.
This relief will be especially cheering,
we should suppose to gentlemen III Hon.
K. II Roberts OF ULica, who are con-
stantly beset with their own well-con-
sidered opinions respecting Gen. Gar
field, formed aud uttered at the time of
the Poland Committees Investigation
when the facts were clearly made out
and the evidence was fresh in mind
Then they condemend him in language
whose severity was equalIed only by its
justice; yet now many of chem think
themselves compelled to Tetract, to quail
ify, Of. at least to ignore the words they
then uttered. Mr.. Roberts, for instance,
does not dare to reprint his own SEN
fences, even when offered at his counter
as a paid advertisement; and yet, like
many theirs, he bias to 20 on in seeming
advocacy OF the election To the highest
offiCeof the very man whom he then pro-
nounced to be undeserving of conf
dence. From this odious duty they will
be relieved by the election in N oven Der,
and we congratulate them In advance
upon the pleasure the event must afford
them. Moreover, that pleasure cannot be
diminished by the success of Gen. Han
cock, because every Intelligent man
knows that Hancock will make a first
rate President.
Meanwhile We are happy to say that
among thUse Republican journals which
condemned Garfield In 1913, and which
now support his election as the candi-
date of their party, the New York
Times still stands Conspicuous for iDde-
denpsnce and manliness In this regard. Ii
has never attempted TO qualify the judg
Inent it then passed upon the Credir
Mobiiier culprit; it has never disputed
that It's opinion Is still the same respect
ing the man. But he is the nominee of
the party, and the continuance of that
patty in power, even with bride taker
and peijurer for President, seems to
our contemporary to be sufficiently I'M
pottant to the country to justify the cleo
uon of such a Candidate against wise,
high minded, spotless, patriotic man
like Winfield Scott Hancock.
We consider thai, the Times is profound
ly mistaken in its course, but we render
honor 10 the independence, the DAnl-
ness and the self-respect which will not
qualify or deny the facts under such cir
cumstances as these.-N: Y. Sun.

The Odds offered on Hancock.

THE KIND OF OPINIONS THAT MEN ARE
WILLING TO BACK WITH THEIR
MONEY.
AS far as betting may be regarded as
an indication of the direction of pub
lie feeling relative to the Presidential
contest, the prospects are favorable to
the election of Hancock and English.
A well known citizen who has oppor-
tunities for knowing what is going on
among sporting men said yesterday
that bets are freely made of 81, 900 to
$500 that Hancock and English will
be elected, There are many bets of
81, 900 to $3.50 that the Democrats will
carry Indiana.
Col. James Mooney of the Twenty
fourth Ward has bet 81 900 even, and
also $500 to $400, that Gen. Hancock
will be elected.
Col. Mooney has also bet $500 even
that the Democrats will carry Indiana.
He has also bet $40 to 800 twice
that Gen. Hancock will carry Ohio.
Sol. Sayles has bet large amount
ON Gen. Hancock, and he wants to get
some more bets of the same kind. He
can he found at the Astor House,
Edward Toohill of Brooklyn, for
merly Republican harbor master, has
come out boldly for Hancock. He
stands ready to bet III 900 to $3.50 that
the Democrats carry Indiana, and 81, :
900 to $3.50 that Hancock's popular
|;vote in. the United. States will be
greater by 1900 than Mr.. Tildeu's
was.
In Lovell's pool room the betting
stands ", 900 to $3.50 in favor of Han
cock.
A betting man took $4,000 to Pitts
burgh lately, expecting to invest it to
advantage in that stronghold of the
Camerons. He has just returned, bring
ing his capital with him. He could
not get bets. He says there has been
revolution in that part of PeAnsyl-
vania. The Republicans are disheart-
ened. The cry there is that Hancock
saved the State, at Gettysburg, from
being overrun by Gen. Lees army,
and that the Presidency is his by
right. Pennsylvania, this gentleman
predicts, will roll up majority for
Hancock, z

Mr.. BLAINE told a questioner at War
saw, ILL.,, that he found it difficult to
believe that Grant bad really used the
language about Hancock which the Rev.
DR.. Fowler put in his m outh; Hancock
military record was "beyond criticism,
and it would be great folly in Grant to
"scrape up personal ill-feelinR," Being
asked whether Grant was jealous OF
Hancock, Mr.. Blaine replied that he
might be, but, if so, 1t was an unreason-
abIe jealousy; Grant had had all the
honors the people could give him and
he should now be satisfied. Mr.. Blaine
commended Hancock's good sense iu
taking tn matter so coolly, and express
ed the opinion that nothing more serl-
Gus would come of 1t than an inter-
change of few complimentary letters.

but the trial shows how farmers clubs
and similar organizations can make
their monthly meetings interesting and
useful. Six samples Of butter, five made
from sour cream and one from sweet
cream, and all from the best creameries
IN the neighborhood. were taken from
market-tubs about to be shipped to this
city; their marks were removed, and
they were submitted to experienced
members of the ubforexamination The
President alone knew the makers of the
several samples of butter, and whether
they were made from sour or sweet
cream. On the question as to which was
the best sample of butter for present
use, the members of the club
(the President not voting) cast
twenty votes in favor of one
sample made from sour cream, and
only one was cast for the sample made
from sweet cream. The six Jumps of
butter were then put in separate kettles
in an ice-house for three weeks, and
then wrapped in cloths and kept in q
milk-cellar for one week, at the end of
which time they were again presented
to the Club for opinions as to their last
ing qualities. The numbers by which
they had Heretofore been known were
changed, so that the voters should be
able to give an unbiased judgment, and
the result was thirteen votes for the
sample that had before headed the poll,
ten for another sample, and seven
for another, all made from sour cream.
The butter made from sweet cream did
not get single vote. at needed no
second taste or smell to show that its
keeping qualities were far inferior to
butter from sour cream" The Presi-
dent, commenting on the result of the
test, says: i" 1t also proves that the but
ter which is made with the most care
is not only best for the present, but for
future use, the three who received
the highest votes being known as the
three most careful butter-makers rep

Hotel Bills In France.

ALL the big Partisan hotels give q
sumptuous table d'hote dinner for
about five shillings head, wine includ.
ed. which is not dear; but they recoup
themselves by their extravagant charges
for what is eaten in private rooms or
ordered in the dining room . La carte.
Thus plain breakfast Of tea or coffee
and bread and butter served in sit
ting-room is charged forty cents for one
person; but If there be two persons the
charge Is doubled, md family of five
persons are made to pay two dollars,
which is absurd. Add eggs and bacon
to the feast and the bill reckons not for
the dish of these delicacies which is
actually consumed, but for {" five break
fasts of bacon and eggs, at eighty cents
per head'-tota, four dollars. In most
of the big hotels the charges for q
siphon of seltzer water is forty cents,
though its trade cost is no more than
three sous glass; glass of sherry is
charged thirty cents; four sandwiches,
fifty cents; pint bottle of beer, thirty
cents, and plate of biscuits, sixty
cents.
It may be alleged that attendance
has to be included in these items; but
attendance, after having been amply
charged for in the bill, has again to be
paid under the form of tips to the SER
wants. II traveller, after settling his
weekly account, neglected to add q five
franc piece for the waiter, he would find
himself condemned to a good deal of
exercise with his electric bell during the
ensuing seven days and get weak tea
and cold eggs for breakfast into the
bargain. There is an astute freemason-
ry among hotel servants, and If the
waiter be dissatisfied with a particular
set of travellers, the porter and cham
bermaid take care to make their dis
pleasure felt also. All of them expect
to be literally paid when traveller
leaves the hotel.
Now, consider what q hotel company
really makes by charging attendance
for these persons who have to be paid
for by travellers twice and thrice over.
As a rule, one waiter, q chambermaid
and porter are allowed for every
twelve rooms or sets of rooms on first
and second floor; and the charge for at
tendance on these floors being at the
rate of fifty cents day, we have s. q
day, or $50 month. for service. But
the wages of hotel waiter are but Is
month; those of a chaimbermaid %, and
of a porter o.; and if to these sums one
adds $40 month for the keep of the
three servants, one finds that the hotel
clears more than S128 monthly by the
single item of attendance. It was
thought step in the right direction
when some twenty years ago hotels
were induced to charge separately for
attendance, in order that travellers
might no longer be put to the trouble
Of giving tips; but nowadays tips and
the extortion for attendance flourish
amicably together hand in hand--Pau
