He was a demure, countri6ed
looking man, and was remarkably
awkward and shy He had been to
the restaurant once before, and the
smart waiter by the name Of Will
liam palmed off bad quarter on
him. He came second time and
on handing over a FIVE dollar bill,
he remarked in a timid way: "Last
time you gave me a bad quarter ;
please be more careful this
timer ~No danger,n said the
pert waiter, "that was the only one
of the kind had. Sorry can't &C.
commodate you with another" as
he shelled out the change. All the
afternoon William was chucklinq
to himself, but the last time he
smiled right heartily was later in
the evening jnst before be settled
with the loss, when thatihdividual
chucked him a tad five dollar bill,
with the lfumorons' remark, "1'll

Editor Democrat-Star
"Woe unto the name of a drunk.
ardw "a good name is better than
riches,' is the recorded opinion Of
one of the wisest and wealthiest of
monarchs. The abstract correct
ness of the opinion is not to be dis.
puted, but in practice the word gives
its support TO the very opposite
sentiment. In. its wisdom bad
name is less to be deplored than
poverty. Fame is not always pre-
ferred to fortune. Rank, health,
aud life are perilled in pursuit OF
wealth, aud the sacrifice is applaud.
ed a prudential enterprise. Crime
and gold, ii not affiliated, possess
very strong affiuities, aud are link
ed in bonds as close and strong as
those which poets surInise = to
bind poverty aud virtue. There is
an enigma and a charm in name.
A too philosophical poet has said !:
:" A rose by any other name would
smell as sweet, Let him try 1t,
aud il it does not "waste its sweet.
ness In tho desert air,n he will di-
vest il of all the charms that love
and poetry have brcathed ou its
fame. The press never circulated
"a greater falsehOod than he who
said "Thcre's nothing in a name.'
Everything is in the name, and the
more that's good in it, the better.
A good name, in man or brute, is
an Inheritance more precious than
ruLies. But q bad name, like u
loathsome disease, has an infection
that medicine cannot reach, and
whose ouly remedy iss the grave
aud oblivion. +" You had as well
kill a dog as give him bad name.'
The author of this proverb was a
true philosopher, and deserves the
immortality that its frequent repe-
titien aud universal application
award him; but, however true in
itself, or correct as to dogs, IL was
never intended by its philanthropic
disco,erer to be restricted, either in
its study or its application to the
canine race. If there be more than
a step between a bad name aud
death in a dogs history, there's a
very short one for life anyhow.
One of the greatest misfortunes
that befall these sagacious friends
of the race of "two.legged bipeds
without feathers" is to give him a
bad name. In this respect there is
a great resemblance, however hu.
initiating it may seem, between
men and dogs. Nor are societies
of men exempted from this com.
mon aud dreadful fatality. A two
legged biped, or a society of them,
fares no better in this respect than
their four.tooted companions. A
bad name is to man a precursor OF
impending ruin; as it is q fore.
runner of death to dogs. He who
brings it upon himself is suicide
of tame and character. He who
inficts it upon another is theil
murderer.
| A number of facts illustrating
the profound wisdom of this pro
verb will be remembered by the
thoughtful reader. 1t will be singu
lar if a painful experience do moi
recall it, as a problem of expert
mental philosophy to many. In iti
grave and truthful light we may
discover the reasons for the decline
and fall Of many o ulan, and man,
q well-devised and promising enter
prise to do good. FUR Tom.

The grand total of States and
Territories given above is 40, $685..
142. The territories not yet re
ported will bring the aggregate for
the whole country up to 80, ,200, 900.
The increase for the decade is H..
100000, or a fraction over 80 per
cent. Full official figures will not
materially change those here pre-
seuted, although u slight increase
may be shown, especially in the
States of Alabama, Georgia, Iowa
and Missouri.
When the irst reports Of the
census was received the Democrat
showed by comparative statement
that the South was gaining in pop
ulation more rapidly than the North
and West. The full returns sustain
this view. The sixteen Southern
States show Il total population OF
1885, ,007, an increase of All, ,4OS,
aud gai1 of nearly "a per cent.
The aggregate population of the
twenty-five Northern and Western
States is 30,707, ,l37, an inGrease OF
6,422, ,407, or 26 per cent.
Far from losing congressman by
the next apportionment, as has
been the hope aud calculation OF
the republican press and politicians,
the South will increase her repre-.
sentatlon in the lower house. This
section now has 106representatives.
II the apporti0nment is raised to
40, 900, AS is probable, the next
house will contain just 29O mem.
bers from the States, or three less
than there are in the present house.
OF these 100 will come from the
South. The net gain for this sec
ton, therefore, will be six members.
The New England, Middle and old.
er Western States will lose largely,
while the new West will gain mem.
bers, together with the South. The
only Southern States that will lose
IN representation are Alabama and
Tennessee.

Advice to Homely Women.

3 Homely girls should never elope or
commit suicide-in short should never
do anything which will render them
liable to get into print. None but those
who have had the sad experience know
what a woefully irksome task it is for a
reporter to dish up a readable article
about a scrawny, freckle-faced girl who
has jumped into the river OF taken
strychnine, or done some other terrible
deed, all for love. We don't mean to
say that scrawny, freckle. faced girls
shouldn't fall in love, but we do en-
p~hatically, nay, tearfully, maintain
that this species of the soft sex should
sodemean themselves in all their loving
and living as TO keep out of the realm
which properly belongs to the sensitive
reporter. 1t is pleasure, q divine plea
sure, to write up the misfortunes of the
beautiful. What newspaper reporter
in all our broad land does not hang up
on the suicide with golden hair, and
thin, white hands, and broad, marble
forehead and shell-like ears, and regu-
lar classic nose, and willowy form and
plump white shoulders. Why, he fair
ly gloats over the victim. He would
not have had her live for all the riches
of the world. He presents her to his
readers a thousand times richer than
she is. And yet, put in her place up
on the slab at the morgue, a stoutish or
a scrawny creature. with a wart upon
her cheek, or a glass eye, or a cork leg,
or a false tooth, or red hair, or bow
legs--the spirits Of the reporter sink
plump down into his boots and he Ell
ther abandons himself to a chaotic, OBJ
livious debauch, OIL writes up the really
good item in "half a stickful,'t or in
genious paragraphs of the paper into
drawing upon his fruitful Imagination
for an ideal heroine with which to gar
nish his story, sc that the homely girls
fate is either not recorded at all or is
recorded under false colors. So we say,
homely girls and homely women owe it
to themselves to %religiously keep out of
print. And by so doing they will con-
fer an estimable favor upon a class that
strives without ceasing to please the
public. The beautiful alone are born
to die. The homely and the staid are
created for life andiits cold, stern and
often bitter realities. ia

driver stops at any other door, she has
him take her back to the hotel and
start over. On the first evening OF her
playing in Denver the driver drove his
carriage to the side door OH Curtis
street. After alighting, Janauschek
discovered that it was not the stage
door, upon which she re-entered the
carriage with her maid, and were driv-

made. On subsequent occasions the

Monday was not an exception to the

bedside of the sufferer administering
spiritual consolation, some one in the
crowd remarked that Coburn's boots
had not been removed. AT this Hank
