trunk into which they had crept in play.
Tho lid fell the lock sprung and they
were all suff0cated.

PHILADELPHIA and New York both
find technical difficulties, arising out of
their complicated plans Of government,
Obstructing SO simple and necessary a
matter as the cleaning of their streets.
The fact is strongly suggestive Of the
imbecile arrangements which most large
cities have in the way of local administra-
tions. There is generally such Il division
of duties and responsibility, that the
first are neglected and the latter shirked
in a manner destructive Of econom-
cal or efficient municipal administra-
tion. The business of the cities might
be conducted we'll on the same princi-
pies which have made the business of
many men in them successful and profit
able. But such men rarely get into
councils;- and, standing close as the
great cities do, to the political systems of
their respective states, their govern
ments are run from state capitals for
general political interests, instead of be.
ing managed in themselves and for
themselves. 1t will never be better until
local politics are completely sundered
from state and national issues. Speed
the time.

Too Late.

Too Late.
Some Of the more independent and
better class Of New York newspapers
are already qularrelling with their new
New York Senator Miller, and strange
to say, for the very cause which con-
spicuously existed rs an objection TO
his election and to which they them
selves had called public attention,
but concerning which they were dumb
as al oyster during his candidacy. The
Ercning Post and Times pOunce down
upon the luckless Miller for his recent
deliyerance ut papermaker's cOnven-
tion, where he declared in one breath,
that he is opposed to any reduction of
the duty Oh paper or on that wood-pulp
in which he has a monopoly, and in the
next that paper is sold rs cheap in
New York as in London. Quite natur-
ally less radical free-trade organ than
the Post or Times would be disturbed by
this logic into the inquiry of what use
then is tariff Oh paper, or of what hurt
would its removal be. But the point to
which the attention of these Republican
organs more especially needs to he
directed is that Mr.. Miller had all these
Ideas when he was candidate for polit-
ical promotion, and when their condem-
nation Of him might have Obstructed his
election. Nay, more, he had prostituted
his position as Congressman, to serve his
private interests, in impressing his views
on the legislation Of the country, and
the Times and Post and Ii'ibmc con-
demned him for it. They are very noisy
now when their clamor will not avail :;
but when their protest could have been
effective they We're conveniently quiet.

Ii the Press would like to have some
additional fine specimens of petty plum
dering at Harrisburg, of spollation Of the
public treasury 10y state officials, of pri-
vate expenses paid from public funds, we
will lie glad to put ut its service the files
Of The INTELLIGENCER for 1915, when it
exposed the class of expenses at the En-
ecutive Mansion paid from the state
funds. The cork-screws and Bibles
served to representatives at the public
expense, the bay rum and damask towels
for the use of noble senators out of the
state treasury is always an interesting
story, albeit not very fresh to the In
TELLIGENCER's readers, but if the Press
will explore, through the agency which we
put at its service, the expenditures at the
COVE rnor's mansion, in Hartranft's s time
at least, it will not only find more evi-
dences than it has yet produced of " the
scheme of grand larceny" in operation
for years at Harrisburg, but it will he

guilty of that practice which by long USE
age has become an article of Republican
faith, the use of the public money 10y off
cials for their private expenses.

The Doctors Strife.

The New York Herald, in manner
that is not entirely free from an apparent
desire for sensational effect is bearing Dr.
Bliss and bulling DIR. Hammond, in
their views of the presidential case and
its treatment. The severe structures OF
Hammond on Bliss are doubtless in
spired in part by that spirit of jealousy
which unhappily permeates their profess
sion. and Hammond himself is not al
together free in the popular mind
from suspicion of charlatanism
in his practice, or at least in
his advertisement Of it. Still, the
facts marshalled by a Herald correspon.
dent from Washington against Bliss,
Show that he is far from being possessed
of the instincts Of q gentleman, if in
deed he has the professional qualifica-
tions of a good physician. The Retro
s,,ect Of American Medicine aud Surgery,
published in Washington, is even more
severe9 in its animadversions upon
Bliss's violation of professional eti.
auette and; while ii deprecates the un-
fortunate fact that to the horrible at
tempt at assassination there should be
added scandal calculated to throw dis
credit upon the medical profession" it
pronounces DIR. Bliss's treatment of DR..
Baxter inexcus;lble in any construction of
the professional code of ethics. There
can be no doubt that Bliss dismissal of
some of his colleagues was rude and un-
warrantable in the manner Of it.

ra of the doctors, to see their Difference.

The proposition to appoint Conkling to
the Supreme Bench naturally gives rise to
a question of contingency. Not unfre-
quently tho Bench is divided in the matter
of law. In such case, should Conkling
find himself in a minority would he embar-
rass the court by resigning? And if he
resigned would he insist upon a vindica-
ton? Mr.. Conkling must give bonds to
keep the peace before he takes a seat on
wool sack.

A Bl0Odless Duel.

AFrench lawyer. having had . dis
pute with neighbor, went to a fencing
master to learn his art in order to tight
a duel. Never having touched q sword
in his life, he asked what he had better
do. TIE master told him to hold his
sword steadily on a level with his adj
yersary's eve. remain immovable, wait
until the other man rushed forward and
found himself spitted like a woodcock.
If his antagonist came nearer he HIM
self was to retreat; if the. other re-
treated he should stand still. An hour
later, the neighbor arrived in the same
ignofant plight IN regard to the art of
dueling. To him the fencing master
gave the same directions When the
two duelists met each assumed the same
attitude as they had been directed, and
for several minutes stood perfectly mo-
tionless, each thinking that the other
would advance. The bystanders looked
on in amazement, the seconds were as
tonished, and at length brought the
farce'to an end by declaring honor sat-
isfied. The lawyer lowered his aching
arms saving: 81 had no idea that duel
was such hard work; I would thousand
times rather plead for DOZEN hours

> One Of the most beautiful and cele-
brated women in Paris is Mime. Lopez,
widow OF the dictator Of Paraguay.
Few have such = strange and eventful
career, and spring from obscurity to q
position of almost absolute power.
When in Paraguay her rule was undis-
puted. She lived in q palace and
reigned q Queen. She is very tall, has
. fair complexion, large blue eyes, an
abundance OF light brown hair, and q
commanding figure. Nine. Lopez has
a striking resemblance to Eugenie and,
indeed, has often been mistaken for the
'ex-Empress. She entertains beautifully,
with great dignity and grace, making
each guest believe he is the honored
one. She speaks many languages, all
without accent. Mmes Lopez } is very
brave. and during the war in Paraguay
followed the. fortunes Of the soldier,
sharing their food and walking, as they
did. with barefeet, thinking the troops
would be brayer and surer of success. il
the wife of their commander shared
their hardships. She went through the
war; and when her husband fell dead at
her feet she was covered with his blood
There was no time for.tears. She took
command, and, turning to the soldiers.
bade them fire on the enemy. With
her husband fell an old comrade of his,
and on the battlefield Mme.l Lopez
promised the dying man to. be . mother
to his orphan girl-a promise she has
nobly kept The cause was lost, and

woman fed to Paris, She IS devoted

watched them couple on q fresh en-
gine for the days trnin, and stood
awhile looking at the marvellous ma
chine that bears us so swiftly, and
sometimes SO fatally. to our Journeys q
end. Directly saw the engineer get
down from the steaming monster, ap-
proach the newsstand at the end of the
platform and engage in conversation
with some one behind the rude count
er. Presently the conductor came out
of the dining hall and walked in the
same direction. Their manner toward
the person behind the counter was so
deferential and kind that wondered at
IL. Invent nearer and saw the person
they were talking to was not . woman,
as had supposed, but a crippled man,
in whose face were traces of suffering.

minded me ut the time of q picture I
mad seen many years before, II was

conclusion that the cripple. whoever he
was, had had q great sorrow. There
was the subducd sadness settled In the
features, the weary, haggard look in

and he answered the engineers ques-
