We think tue editor of the Ray.
m0nd G0zette very sensible in his
utteranees about outsiders forcing
themselves upon the Press associa-
tion. Men who are in no wise con-
nected with the press should not
receive from the officers OF the AS
s0ciation paxses over the roads !;
nor should they be entertained mt
the expense OF the citizens who in
vite the Press association to share
their hospitalities upon these occa-
sions.-D Democrat Star.
The expressions from the press
on this question OF issaing certifi-
Gates of membership to parties who
never had any connection with the
press, is all one way and tor that
reason, and because it is right, GER
tiicates will only be issued to old,
legitimate members, and persons
actually engaged in the newspaper
business. Editors aud publishers
desiring to attend the convention,
are requested to confer with tue
President of the association, as the

The constitution requires an ini.
tiation fee of one dollar FROM each

not heretofore paid that fee, aud
who desire to become members, are
requested to send the amount when

The Colonel.
Memphis Avalanche.

memphis Avalanche.
Colonel is a military title that
is indispensable, especially in the
southern part of America. The
salutation, "Good morning, Col.
onel," always meets with smiling
response. 1t makes not a particle
of difference whether a citizen has
been in the military line or not.
He never fails TO respond to the
address of "Colonel." "Hello,
Colonel y pronounced in a moder-
ately loud tone of voice on Main
street, aud every citizen within
hearing of the words would re-
spond, thinking himself personally
addressed. One reason for the al
most uuiversel custom is that the
word "Colonelr is easier to pro.
nounoe than I" Mister -.n And
then, in the whir of business; one
forgets sometimes the names OF ac-
quaintauces, and the handy "Col-
ouel" comes IN to supply all def
ciencies in that respect, and when
once the habit of styling an ac-
quaintance "a "Colonel the habit
sticks closer than brother. An
other reason, not to be lightly con-
sidered is, that there is Just the
faintest suspicion of military rank
connected with the title. 1t is true,
it is only "A bare suspicion. But
unless a person has been intimately
associated with the "Colonel " for
the past twenty years, there will
always remain "a shred of belief
that possibly, in the remote past,
the reputed "Colonel might
have seen service at the head of at
least a regiment of home guards.
Two classes OF citizens are, how.
ever, wholly exempt, while another
class is only partially entitled to
receive the honorable title. Doc.
tors and preachers are never called
Colonels," but every lawyer who
is not styled "Judge" is a
Colonel" The right Of editors
to the title is undisputed, and they
are all Colonels,n without excep-
ton. With the exception of doc
tors and preachers, every citizen is
liable, some time or other, to be
styled a Colonel" The slightest
notoriety Of any sort is quite su6i
cient to convert very modest aud
peaceable citizens into full blown
"Colonel." The craftsmanship of u
ward meeting has been known to
make young politician u life
long Colonel.n Another citizen
who has come off first best in
a tussel with y Monroe street
.tiger," has ever after been known
as the "Colonel." While it is hard
on the real Colonels, who have seen
service ut the head Of regiments, 10
real war, yet it must be confessed
that there would be a big hiatus III
this world of military titles, If the
word was strictly confined to des-
ignation OF those only who are or
have been, some time or other, sure
enough Colonels.

wARM RUSSIAN HOSPITALITY.
Serious Encounter Between Russian
md Prussian Officers at a Re-
ception In Poland-Rioting
At Pestl.

Berlin, Jan. 16.-The reports of the
disagreeable affair between Russian and
Prussian officers at Kalishe, Poland ARE
fully confirmed and elicit strong COM
ments in military circles. The Rus
slams became so excited that they actu-
ally drew swords on their guests and
bloodshed was only prevented by the
intervention of a Russian colonel who
conducted the Prussians to his own
quarters and ordered an escort of thirty
soldiers to conduct them to the from
tier as he feared the Russian officers
would lay in ambuscade for them. Pro-
fuse apologies will doubtless be made at
st. Petersburg. But the affair Illus
trates the feeling prevalent in Russian
military circles. A semi-oficial news
paper, The Post says what has occurred
shows the sentiments of the Russian
army regarding Germany. and which in
view of army influence on the Russian
policy will sooner or later, according to
opportunity, be translated into action.
London, Jan. 16.-The rioting was
renewed in Pesth last night on a for
midable scale. The gas lamps on the
street in front of the Casino club house
were broken, and shots from revolvers
fired at the police, one policeman being
wounded. Twenty-one rioters were ar
rested. The correspondent writes that
the last and worst of the Pesth mobs
is composed entirely of laborers and
roughs, and hints that the international
society is believed to be at the bottom
of the mischief. Newspapers, of all
shades and opinions, denounce the
authors of the tumult. The students
who participated in the demonstration
the first day have published declara-
tion disclaiming any connection with
the rioting. 1t is extremely doubtful
as to who fired the fatal shots, but the
belief is that they proceeded from the
rioters themselves, as no orders were
given the troops to fire.

Ouray Interviewed by Senator Hill
The Ute Committee.
Washington, Jan. 16.-Senator Hill,
of Colorado, visited Ouray and tried to
draw that willy chief into conversation,
but did not meet with much success.
Ouray has evidently been croached, or
else his native cunning would not per-
init him to speak freely for fear that he
will prejudice his case, for he fought
shy of every question the answer to
which would have revealed his inten-
tion, replying in every case that he
preferred to wait until the secretary
had given him an idea of what the gov
ernment would do. He made only one
satisfactory statement, and that was
that his people wanted peace and would
be willing to settle upon new reserva-
tion, provided they were given 160
acres for each family, and sum of
money with which to buy the necessary
outfits together with some presents.
The house Indian committee began
its Investigations into the cause of the
Ute outbreak, to-day, by taking the tes-
timony of Gen. Adams. He thinks
that Meeker was largely to blame for
the calamities. Miss Meeker will be
examined on Saturday, but it is not ex-
pected that she will add anything to
what she has already told to the public
in her puhlic intervipws

Vienna, Jan. 16-A special dispatch
from Pesth states that serious distur-
bance occurred Tuesday and Wednes-
day, in consequence of duel between
Baron Marthenyi and Herr Verhoray,
a member of parliament, in which the
latter was fatally wounded, and further
trouble is feared. Herr Verhoray was
the editor of Hungarian radical
newspaper, and attacked the Count
Festeties, fellow member with the
baron, of the aristocratic national
casino club, and Baron. Marthenyi in
tervened in the matter. The friends
of Verhoray say that Marthenyi is a
professional duelist, the best pistol shot
in Hungary, and was put forward in
the case for the purpose of silencing
Verhoray, who is very distasteful to
the aristocrats, but popular with the
masses.
Last night a great crowd of students
and workmen filled the streets in the
neighborhood of the casino club, utter
ing hostile cries, and they finally stoned
the windows. The police were repeat
repulsed by the rioters, and finally two
batallions of infantry charged with
fixed bayonets. Many persons were
slightly hurt by sticks, stones and bay
onets. About thirty rioters were ar
rested.
