The American misinterprets the CIT
IzEN upon one point. The CITIZEN has
never advocated a re-opening OF the
1908 question. We can readily see
what a deplorable catastrophe that
would be. We have earnestly and ur-
gently called for council of the party
to adopt some other basis, but not to
leave the question open for one moment,
and never to leave this mOOring until
the drag rope is safely fastened about a
better one. The failure of the party to
adopt this course before the question
was taken up by the courts renders it
perpetually impossible. AS far as the
CITIZEN was able to judge of what was
best in principle and for the party, it
has done its duty. The state is now in
the hands of the republicans and we are
not alone in the opinion that it is like
ly to remain so. We deeply depiorc it,
but we believe we will be sustained by
all who have cared to read our utter
anees upon this question that the CITI-
ZEN is blameless. We see no phase OF
the question now that il worth discus
sing.

The CITIZEN has got into a strait, with
the American after it on one side and the
Banner on the other. We do not care
to discuss with the BANNER the rela-
tive merits of democracy and republi-
canism. The Banner has decided that
question by deserving the democratic
ranks at a time when it stands in great
est need of the undivided efforts of its
adherents. The Malone wave that
threatens to overwhelm the south
looked too formidable for the Banner
and it has turned its PROV and set its
sails to catch the first breeze that cross
es the Virginia line, and hopes to go
sailing into place and power with those
who are cultivating administration IA
vor. The Banner has been good dem
ocratic paper and if the World had not
headed it off on the compromise" pol
icy, we opine that it would have been
sailing "Sneedward" with all sails
spread and crying out against those
who would break up the grand old par
ty which it now affects to think so in
efectice and small. 1t wishes the
CITIZEN to tell it what the democratic
party has done for the country, etc. II
has had no opportunity to do anything
not having been in power. What II
may do for the south may be guessed
from what the republican party has
done for the north. Its greatest draw
back has been in the foolishness OF Its
| leaders, and it is safe to say it never
will accomplish anything for the coun-
try if desertion is to be the rule. VIZ
sympathize with the Banner. See tho
country laughing at the great, lubberly
straddling David Davis The Banner
will be ridiculed and humbled and sor
roWful. The Malone idea will run anC
be glorified for a season, and the Ban
ner will be elated and think itself fortu
nate in having anticipated moyemen
that is to wash it into harbOr of pros
perity, but the waves will recede anC
leave it stranded and it will tear its hal
and curse its own folly. Fourth of July
orations may not suit its fancy now, bu
a funeral dirge is not half so pleasant t
hear, and it had better endorse the ILL
that are but for season than flee K
those that will last fer all and aye.

We confess that we can see no good
to come of charging the legislative rep
resentation. The body is already too
large for effectiveness and we cannot see

haps. Our Senator Matthews voted

Paritanism. The now much ridieuled revival
OF early English ornamentation and costumes
is not whimsical as some deem; it is a revival
of things which were genuinely related to Eng
lish lite, character, and climate. They were
hebraized under regime Of hard pietism
which is now outgrOwn. No amount Of ridi-
cule eau overrule the fact that the prim con-
ventionalisms in dress which prevailed at
the beginning of this generation have been
broken up and dismissed forever a chaos of
costumes has followed, and it was well repre-
sented in this motley three-days' carnival at
the Albert Hall. But If any ladies had ap-
peared there in the dress that was normal
twenty years ago, she would have been laughed
at more loudly than any ''esthetic" OF our
time. The old tyranny of Philistinism having
been removed, all manner OF antiquities have
come forth. Society masquerades in them,
and the effect is half-beautliul, half-ludicrous;
but the forces Of natural selection will work
among them, and every season indicates that
more perfect order will presently appear out OF
this chaos.
1t is wonderful how completely the cid Eng
lish Fair has disappeared. Every year the
characteristics of ''merGie England" become
more and more historical. Az Epson races
there are no more sideshows, no speckled boys,
no fat women, no dwarfs, giants, living skele-
tons The Richardson Show is gone. The in
creasing crowds OF people atnuse themselves
with pienteous potations OF beer, throwing
sticks at cocoanuts, and shooting from toy-guns
at targets. 1t is the same at fairs; even at
Coventry Fair there Is almost nothing of the
old time. Lady Godiva is forbidden to lead
her procession through the town, however
thickly clad. The old Shrewsbury Show ocoa-
sionally appears, bu5 only as a ghost of ats for
mer self The Lord Mayors Show holds out
longest, but it is a sad spectacle Probably
George Stephenson is responsible for this hid
ing away of the fairies that used to dance and
sing. The railways have let in too mueh light
ON their soitudes The fragments of that
strange past, picked MP and set playing like
| puppets at Albert Hall, were amusing, but
there was a sad side TO them. Human nature
devoIrs its own children, and sometimes playa
with their bones.

Study at Home.

a modest little society, which came into
existence in Boston eight years ago, the
''Soeiety to Encourage Study at Home,"'
has won for itself national reputation. 1t
has pupils in thirty-seven States and in the
Dominion of Canada. The happy idea orig
mated with Miss Anna e. Ticknor, In 1878.
The object of the Society was, at first, to
supplement the education of young women
just graduated from hi II schools or semina-
ries. 1t started with ten pupils, having no
buildings, nor professors, nor laboratories,
nor treasury. Most Of the instruction was
by correspondence. The work was taken
up and pursued by the best women and fin
est scholars in Boston, and rapidly extended.
1t was found impossible to confine it within
its original limits. It was soon heard of by
!, Women al over the land anxious to- study
1iterature, science and art, but SO situated
that teachers, or opportunity, Or leisure
were wanting to pursue study after the
usual manner. To the Society these women
appealed, and the aid they sought was
promptly granted.
In the eighth year Of it's existence the So
ciety is conducting work in English litera-
ture, the sciences, music, mathematics,
French and German; and il is constantly
extending its sphere. The eighth year
closes with $50 students on the list, and ia
teachers, who direct their study by cores
pondence. It is especially noteworthy that
OF the whole number, 1872 have persevered,
or about rs per cent. The secretary reports
that the average standing of the WORK is
high, and that there has been notable in
crease of interest in the special courses of
study. Since the society began it's work,
5000 women, many of them now the lead
ing spirits of more limited but exceeding
useful societies, have been connected
with the institution, aud not few
have made valuable contributions in
special departments of literature. It is
aptly and justly described by the Providence
Star as the most influential organization Of
an educational sort, to uplift and enlarge
the sphere of women, which exists in the
world to-day. This great university. with
out costly buildings, without endowments
or scholarships. is doing noble work with
its one thousand students and its corps of
nearly two hundred teachers. BY it's plan
the students themselves become educators,
and their homes new centres of culture in
hundreds of remote villages from Maine to
California. Its usefulness is seemingly
limited only by the ambition and aspira-
tions of women who have both the aim and
will to improve themselves by private study.

The Careless Use of Ice.
New York Hour.


1t is only in this country that ice enters so
largely Into the apparent comfort Of its inhabi-
tants, and very dangerous comfort it is. Dys-
pepsia and number Of other evils follow di-
rectly in the train of consumption of ice. To
the great pitchers of iced water so temptingly
displayed on hot days may be traced a number
of maladies. for it is evident that no person
can with out danger suddenly and violently
lower the temperature of his stomach by fill
ing it full of water at 500 Fahrenheit. That
valuable organ will certainly resent the insult,
especially if followed up by repeated injuries
of the same kind In the tropics where the
use OF ice has mora temptations surrounding
it than in any other part of the world, the in
habitants most carefully avoid it. You cannot
get a Cuban to indulge in iced water. People
who have been previously addicted to the fool
ish habit of using ice will, after visiting the
West Indies, forever eschew the dangerous
practice. A party of men who recently visited
San Domingo on business, (who would go there
for any other rsason?) on their first arrival
mourned greatly at the absence of ice. "Ahr'
said they, "whenfhe English steamer runs in
here we Will go aboard and have treat in the
shape of good iced brandy and soda" The
Sgeainer arrived III que COuTS6. Lue aru5uV lOr-
eigners jumped into the boat of the captain of
the port "a negro gorgeously aTrayed in uui-
form covered with gold lace) and, barely salut-
ing the captain, rushed TO the saloon for the COW
eted refreshment. 1t was duly absorbed and the
whole party were rendered ill in consequence.
None of them have ever touched ice since that
time. In the West Indies it is only the coored
race which patronizes ice-to the white people
it isn only no luxury, but dangerous enemy.
Ice has its uses; in the hospitals it is invalua-
BILE; for the preservation of provisions, espec-
tally fish, it is useful, although detrimental to
favor if allowed 70 touch the meats to be pre-
served bat as an article of human consump-
tion it should be avoided There is yet an
say 10 be written upon the maladies and woes
produced by the careless consumption OF ice.
1t is only with MS that this takes place. Abroad
ice is simply luxury only resorted to st
times; even in California tho residents arc
wary Of ice. In short. ice is a very good friend
in moderation, but a bitter enemy whom the
intimacy is too absorbing.

THE extent of building operations in New

There has been no such activity since just

Spgle edifces.

OF President Garfield the London Specta-

the soundness of his constitution. His con-

he is very courageous, full of domestic kind
