though, cannot be out without chaperon
and SO it comes that the girls at the Bed
ford Springs have few brothers of other
girls, of appropriate age, to regale their
eyes upon, and few of their own, of any
age, to do duty as very poor substitutes.
Truly at these mineral mountain springs a
chapcron il hardly needed, so light is the
temptation to levity.
But it can be made very pleasant
place, even to those who are fond of gaiety,
if there happen to be few guests of the
proper constitution to Ieaven the mass or
should there be, as there is generally at
the Virginia Springs, some one commits
stoned by the proprietors of the house to
take charge of the amusement of the
guests and aid them to the proper degree
of sociability and intercourse. An official
character of this kind enables persons who
naturally desire to become acquainted to
meet each other and he serves to remind
others, who are selfishly content with the
society of their especial friends, of the duty
that rests upon them to make themselves
generally agreeable. In the old Bedford
days, Mr.. Courtenay for many years per-
formed this part to the great satisfaction
and entertainment of the guests but now
they are left entirely alone and to their own
resources and if there does not happen to
be some one among them of that rare and
precious nature that inspires its possessor
to exertion to secure the happiness of those
around, even though they are outside a re-
stricted circle Of friends, the Springs will
certainly be condemned as dull. A bright

Perhaps he had copied that style of dis

despise argument.
There are good many iron manufac-
turers here, chiefly from Pittsburgh, which
is very loyal to Bedford. They will talk
iron to you till you feel as heavy as pig
of the metal. It is good thing, though,
with which to balance the political talk.
Iron is as solid as politics are airy and it
is cool sort of thing. 1t is rather l..
freshing to think of it in summer and
whenit is going up, and you have any of
it, you can take in . great deal Of talk
about it. Iron is always going. Gener-
ally it is going down when you have it and
up when you havn't any. So it is well to
study the idiosyncrasies of the creature; and
Bedford win post you. If you have tai
ent for mixing i'm when you come in
contact with intelligent people, you can
learn great deal at Springs. am la

The British governor OF Cape Colony consld-
ers himself strong enough to put down the
Basuto rebellion without calling upon the I'm
perial troops for aid. The colonial force num-
bers Iii, 296 men, but this includes 1l3, 900 new
leyies, who are raw and comparatively without
organization. The Basutos can muster 40 900
warriors, armed with the very best modern
rifles, which they have purchased from British
traders. These warriors are brave and know
how TO handle their rifles with deadly effect.
The governor Will probably find it exped,ent to
call for Imperial assistance before he gets
through with the Basutos

Stree the late election the committee to pre-

It Is DOW a trite remark that the whole country
Is prospecting. The capital city Is an epitOme OF
the whole country-or should be. Those who
spell nation with big n have their way, and
seem likely TO keep it, Spelling nation with
capital n means spelling capital With a capital
Cor should do so. SeIf-government duty
lot to be escaped elsewhere, we are happily rid
OF. The time and labor and money which
others spend On their political machines we
save for other purposes. A committee Of One
Hundred is more economical than a machine.
one source OF social strength mere Is also
source OF weakness-the lack OF community In
education, thought and feeling. The elements
are too diverse to crystalize perfectly. But
those whose action has ever been most potent
for practical ends are sufficiently alike. With
all its Tiyalries and competitions business Is
homogeneous: for il is an axiom that business
IS business. From this element must come the
main inspiration whenever a new point toward
prosperity Is to be carrIed-Whenever the law
ful governors are TO be prompted, fastened or
directed. This Is no reflection on the generosity
or public spirit of those who live In retirement,
but results naturally from the fact that bust.
ness IS business. Time is also moDey-and
much more than money. When one sees what
ten years have wrought, he sees how precious
is one year In the removal OF a nuisance or the
beginning OF an Improvement. 4 removal of
the railroad depOts; the Introduction into the
city OF an increased supply Of water; bridge
over the Potomac; the reclamation of the river
fats; such are some of the things which we have
battered ourselves We were some time or other
to have. II We remember rightly they have
already been talked about. 1t only remains
to-push things Has Washington done all it
can do TO hasten them? With prosperity from
ocean to ocean, with an emphatic verdict just
given that nation shall have big N with an
outlook brighter than ever before for capital
with big C, Is there nothing for committee
OF one Hundred TO look after?

In the struggle for women'S rights too much
Importance is attached to Ine ballot and not
enough to the rights Of property. The tendency
Of the laws. even In the most enlightened and
progressive lands, has been to take from the
married woman all property rights and invest
them In the husband. Indeed, we can 90
farther aud say that this has been the spirit
and effect Of the laws, and that the tendency at
present, is In the same direction. Within the
past few years there has been manifested, In
some OF the states, a disposition to break away
law that IL was dangerous to entrust a
married woman with any freedom in the
possession, management Of or disposal of prop
erty. Strange as 1t may appear, Texas has
advanced farther than any other state of the
Union In according to married women the rights
or property necessary to protect themselves and
their children. Not only have no injurious con-
sequences resulted In marital relations In con-
sequence of the liberal laws of the state towards
the women, but it is claimed that society has
been greatly benefited The advocates of mar
Tled women's property rights have watched the
eject OF this legislation closely and they assert
that one result has been to protect the home
stead interests Of families, and that the women
have shown themselves to be, upon the whole.
more cautious than their husbands. They have
not been so easily enticed into speculative
schemes as the men. On the Other hand the
ruling idea OF the wife and mother who has 1t In
her power TO control property Is to hold on TO
the home OF herself and children.

the fifth, Monday-promises to be a regular
gala day. The grand salute at sunrise-one
gun to be fred for each Stakeholder the
supervision of Col Owen Roberts, the elabo-
rate procession at 10 A. M, which will be
participated in by most all the civic societies
of the city; the general turn out of the fire
department, and of the two hose companies
and hook and ladder company; the fifty
wagons and vehicles in procession, repre-
eenting the most prominent business houses
and professions, to be followed by the secret
orders, and the 'sOld Time" moving club,
and others, will give an attraction to the
populace which will draw many people to
this city on that day. Two pionics, two
grand balls, and fete ohampetre, and a two
days jamboree at B. Roemer's summer
garden on the Blue Earth, will give every
body chance to enjoy the glorious Fourth.
