filth in II. "a in all National banks, was due
largely to the supervision to which IL was sup
posed to be constantly subjected
The accident in the City Hall station of the
elevated road yesterday had no serious result,
which was, however, the work of chance rather
than of any precaution taken by the company.
The injuries of passengers were fortunately
slight. The mishap should suggest some sys-.
TEN of guarding against accidents in case the
ar-brakes fail, as, of course, they are liable to
do The brakemen might be instructed to be
always at the hand-brakes when the train ran
into that depot, and the trains might perhaps
use less rapid rate in coming in than is some
times seen.
The authorities in Newark show, at last,
some sign Of relenting in their cruel treatment
of the Mechanics Bank defaulters. Oscar
Baldwin, the cashier whose alleged crime is
the theft of $2,400,000 was compelled to
raise bail in the enormous sum OF $lO0,OOo.
Marchbank, who is charged with having
stolen 10000, was called upon for $4,000
bail. Theodore Baldwin, the paying telles
and brother of the cashier, who is charged
with making false entries of 100000 depos-
it in the correspondent bank in New York,
was called upon for $50, 900 bail-a wickedly
hard figure, but Mr.. Baldwin was unable to
obtain il, and so the Commissioner, no doubt
n little ashamed of his severity, reduced 1t to
S25, 200. 1t is to be hoped that tins pre-
figures less bitterness, and less suggestion OF
persecution, in the course of the prosecution
toward the Newark philantmOpists.
If Guiteau is lunatic, there are people who
would like lunatic for a lawyer, just as Mr..
Lincoln wanted to find out the brand OF whls-
kew one of his most successful Generals was
said to drink too much Of in order that he
might send barrel of it to every General in
the Army. 1t will be remembered that on
Tuesday Guiteau spoke scornfully OF his mid
die name, Julius, on the ground that there
was 600 mach of the negro about it," Now
it so happens that there is negro on the jury,
a little circumstance which Guteau evidently
recalled after this hasty remark had been mace.
Yesterday, therefore, this maniac, tins
wildly insane person who is utterly
unable to distinguish between right
and wrong and utterly unable to CON
troll his actions, made a little speech TO the jury
showing the high respect he entertained for
the colored race. The prejudice against the
name Julius" was contracted twenty years
ago." he meant no discourtesy to that race
This little incident, together with Guiteau'S
threat to the Judge, that if he did certain
thing " the Court in bdRo would reverse him,
and his sharp correction of Mr.. Scovihe IN
saving we admit the shooting, but not the
killing" suggests the possibility that If he
should escape conviction he might still make
a good living at his profession with the rep
utation he has acquired and by leaving " the
ology" alone. He is evidently better lawyer
than some of our NewY York Police Justices,
who would probably take in banc to be an al
fusion to faro.

TIE healthy man and woman (no
matter how rich) who work with
neither their hands nor brains, dis
regard the plain command, and lose
one of the richest rewards in this
life, contentment. The Idle are
nearly universally miserable, misan-
thropic, and discontentod. All his
tory proves the wisdom of making
toll the necessity Of the race. BY
this is not meant slavish labor. The
cultivation of the heart and head and
muscles should all go on together.
Cultivate the physical alone and you
develop the splendid savage; the in
teliect alone and you have the skep-
tic and doubtcr; the moral and re.
ligious nature alone and you have
the bigoted Christian But culti-
vate all together, and you have tho
ideal man and woman, busy with
hand or brain to make the world
better--all its paths smoother and
the race happier. Let the fact inn
press every young man and woman
that the world is in no need Of
droncs. What it needs is workers
men and women who believe work
is honorable and idleness disgrace
full.

TIE fact that Mr.. Adam Drasen,
the successful leader Of our city
band, contemplates seeking greener
pastures, should be duly considered
by the citizens of Mineral Point.
During the past year, with Adam at
its head, our band has been sec
ond to none in this section, and all
of us have centered our pride there
on. A first-class band is credit
to any place, hence the question be-
comes prominent and proper: Can
we afford to have Mr.. Drasen leave?
We think not; then why not do as
many other cities, where a reason
able amount is provided to hold an
efficient leader at home. 1t is to be
hoped that this matter will meet
with due consideration.

of the team threw Mrs. Smith back
into the wagon. The team ran a
considerable distance and when near

condition, and taken to the home of

about five o'clock when death ended
