TuE STANDARD OIL COMPANY.

!;r. Editor-1hc production Of coal OIL
Azs IN the past been n thriving industry
in our State. The mariVu!sJlons OF the
Standard OIL Company have so crippled 1t
thst orr towns depending largely upon
its production for their trade ale pros
r>ie, and the localities in which II Is
produced sre practically yaluclCss to their
owners. A recent decision rendered by
Judge Barber Of Cleveland, Ohio, sheds
some light upon it, iufamies and Offers
some hone that the oil land and oil we'll
gamers may Nc relieved from its cxtor-
lions by the mterposiiion Of tho cenrts.
The following dispatch in substance
Plstrs i,s decision:
STANDARD on INrvprNCE KrprTED.-
CINCINNATI, Dee. lS.-A special to the
Commercial from Cleveland stntes thst
Judge Barhor this morning refused to
grant an suplicstiou made by !he stand
ard Oil Company for sn order to restrain
Mcssrs. Schoacll, sherman and 1onE!c
from manufacturing more thrn So,0U
barrels of oil I'm enc yesr, ssrer contract
with the Standard Oil Company. Judge
Barber held that The ContrsCt was at vari-
aNcc With the laws of trade and in con-
firl with public policy, and therefore
void.
II IS amazing that, In m enlightened
country, such combinations should exist.
They represent au organised conspiracy
both sgainst property and labor, and their
owners ere, 10 all intcnts anA purposes,
I'm the most insiduouS way, enemies to
tho public welfare. The subject matter
under consideration before the court only
exhibits one of the elements of the COM
binstion that enabled them to control the
volume OF production rs we'll as the price
70 hc paid at the wells and also TO corner
the market at will and dictate the price TO
the consumer.
Judge Barber has taken the initistiye
in behalf Of the people that we, DOUBT
not, will, in short time, crush this
monster monopoly out of existence. The
time is not far distant when men ambt-
tious for popular preferment Will learn
that co-0peratiop in such a system OF
rlnnGcr tousigns them to q doubtful
status i'm private life. The only safety to
the people in this country, rests in the
exercise Of constant vigilance against the
entertainments OF all this class OF charter
cd monopolies. Judge Barber by declar--
ing this contract against public policy and
therefore void, has enrolled himself AS
hero IN behalf Of popular right. L.

FASHIONABLE FoorwoMEN.

Footmen are going out and footwomen
are taking their place. Dining the other
night in Eaton place, the door was opened
by one of 5he latter in a most charming
and becoming livery. Black and white
mob cap for headdress, stand-up collar with
white cravat and small pin in it, rich brown
cloth coat with livery buttons, cut some
what like mans hunting coat, and buff
waistcoat with a high church collar-such
was the uniform I was SO struck with the
upper portion of the dress that never
thought of looking at the extremities, but I
fancy my eye once got glimpse, going
upstairs, Of red stockings and shoes with
silver buckles. During dinner four win
some lassies, all similarly attired, waited on
me hand and foot and certainly never was
a dinner more deity handed and served.
Why not Women are, by their nature,
much better suited for this sort of work
than men. The latter think nothing of
eating onions or smoking vile tobacco be-
fore serving the soup, or putting their
thumbs in the gravy of ones mutton, or
breathing stentoriousIy at your ear, or per-
,eptibly on your Uranium if it lacks COW
'ring. Besides, there is decided economy

Ask For It Like a Man.

Young man, when you see anything
you want, ask for it like a man. If YOU
want to borrow IS of a man, or if you
want to marry his daughter, don't slip ur
to him and hang on to your hat and tall
politics and religion and weather, and tell
old stale jokes whereof you can't remem-
Der the point, until you worry the old
man into nervous irritation. Go to him
with full head of steam on and your
bow ports open like an iron-clad pulling
for shore battery. Snort and paw and
shake your head, if you feel Ike it, no
matter If it does make him astonished.
Better astonish him than bore him. Go
into his. heart, or his pocket book, or
both, it amounts to the same thing, like
brindle bull with curl on his forehead
charging red merino dress, eyes on fire.
tail up, and the dust a-fying. Then
you'll fetch him. Or, possibly he NAV
fetch you. But never mind; you'll ac-
complish something, and show you aren't
afraid to speak what's on your mind.
And that's great deal more than you
would accomplish by the other method.
You need not be cheeky, but you ought
to be straightforward

BY my presence, wnlcn must nelp to remind
you Of your grief Good morning.
The accomplished woman of fashion
bowed and swept from the room.
She descended the stairs and hurried to
her carriage, which was waiting for her at
the~door of the house.
''To Brooklyn, she said 10 the coachman,
who assisted her into the vehicle.
This coachman was the man whom she
had called William upon the previous night.
The man turned pale as Maud OVington
gave this order.

voice, "not there, surely. You forget the

f'Then you shall see him, and from his
lips you shall hear that have spoken the

Miss ovington shrugged her shoulders
impatiently.
"Letit be so, then, " she said. ''To-night,

a Franrn t1nn al Amerfca.

The Kosmos of most Frenchmen lies
between Belgium and the PyFenees, the
Mediterranean and the English Channel.
When they attempted to describe any
thing beyond their own confines they
are very apt to blunder consummately.
They seldom get anything right off thelr
own soil. OF this country they nearly al
ways chronicle marvellous things indeed,
however serious they may be, they very
rarely fail to be c0mical in dealing with
America. The latestunconscious humor-
list is Jules Saussa, who has published q
romance-in a double sense-entltled
the ''Societe des Mouchards, the action
being laid in France, Italy, Zululand and
the United States. He pays a delicate
compliment to this city by calling 1t the
rendezvous of all the scoundrels In Eu-
rope One of his most striking person
ages is Mrs Pitt, aged eighty, remark
able for two fangs, like boar's, and an
Unsuitable appetite for what he calls Le
todd, composed of much whisky, little
water, lemon and sugar. She keeps a
fashionable boarding school In Louisiana,
and drinks 80 freely every evening that
she is carried to her room by muscular
servant, especially employed for the pur
pose. She is very fond of q certain Ma
jor Dick, also a devotee of Le todd, who
addressed her Gin true American fash
ion" as 'EOld Mule" and 'tAncient Ro-
mantle Brain" He constantly uses the
favorite oath of the country, ''God me
damn" and when he is particularly af-
fectionate to Mrs. Dick sits down by her,
and puts his feet in her lap. A woman
here is always addressed, if married, as
Mistress" and, If single, as ''Miss,
while a man is addressed as 'Master"
and ''My Gentleman" A lady should,
in writing to one of the other sex, call
him Honorable Sir" or Respected
Gentleman" and sign herself "Your de-
voted Suitor" or Your truly respectful
est. Saussa introduces US to two very
pretty Ohio girls, Jinifer and Betsey,
one of whom habitually rides wild horses
through her native town bare-headed,
and the other, donning trousers and
high boots, goes forth to hunt rattle
snakes. Most Americans carry, we are
informed, bowie-knife In their boots,
and the rich Southerners are always ac-
companied by two negroes to fan them.
Notwithstanding the custom of going
armed, the average American is not ne
cessarily very fierce, and there are ma
tives who, 80 fan as known, have never
killed a single man. Different habits
characterize different States. In Mime
sofa, for example, young ladies of posi-
ton enter cornfelds during the season to
gather red corn, and after wedding
ceremony has been performed, all the
invited guests set to peeling apples, the
object being to see who can peel the
most in given time. In several of the
States west of the Mississippi, which is
5000 miles long, and empties into Gull
Mexico, ladies of the best society spend
weeks at time in the Rocky Mountains,
hunting grizzly bears, and wear necklaces
of their claws as trophies of their Prov
ess. Every American will recognize this
faithful delineation of national scenes and
manners, and will wonder how French
man could have been so very accurate

GOethe's Heartlessness.

Goethe traded in the loves of women
women whom he had attached to him
by his powers of fascination. "When
he had no woman in his heart, " says his
latest biographer, "he was like a dis
secting surgeon without subject. He
said of 8alzac, that each of his best nov
els seemed dug out of suffering wom-
ans heart Balzac might have returned
the compliment In reference to his
early fondness for natural history,
Goethe says, I" I remember that, when
child pulled flowers to pieces to see
how tho petals were inserted into the
calyx, or even plucked birds to observe
how the feathers were inserted in the
wings" Bettins remarked to Lord
HoughtOn that he treated women In
much the same fashion,
