MURDER IN FUN.


The last celebration of the Fourth of
July was prolific of fatal accidents from
the use of toy pistols. At least dozen
deaths occurred in two or three Eastern
cities from lockjaw superinduced upon
wounds caused in this way. There were
also many cases of eyes shot out, painful
flesh wounds inflicted, property injured,
and small boys seriously demoralized. The
tendency for several years in the manu-
facture of what are very improperly called
"toy" pistols has been to give the weap-
ons more force, until now there is very
little to choose between them and real pis-
tolls, though they are still handled and
used as recklessly as though they could
not do any mischief. Next to the toy pis-
toll in danger and offensive properties is
the sling, with which, though it is perhaps
impossible to commit murder, yet very Sc
rious wounds may be produced. 1t is of
course idle to expect prudence and precau.
ton from boys. The only way to prevent
them from doing mischief is to keep dan
gerous things out of their reach. The toy
pistols are entirely unsafe, and their sale
ought to be prohibited and if the slings
also were tabooed, society would be con-
siderably relieved.

MIDHAT PAsHA.

So Mldhat Pasha is not to die, but to go
into exile in Central Arabia, where he may
turn Wahabee, eschew tobacco, and be-
come leader of fanatics, if he pleases. 1t
is said that in soliciting pardon at the
hands of the Sultan, Midhat Pasha con-
fessed that he had been accessory to the
death of Abdul Aziz. Under some circum-
stances such an admission as this (supposing
it to have been made would be awkward.
But in Turkey the reigning Sultan wonld
often find it very dangerous to establish
the precedent of Furnishing the murderers
of his predecessors, for in Turkey the muir
derers of the last Sultan are almost neces-
sarily the friends of the reigning one. Now
if those who make way for the reigning
Sultan are to be punished for their zeal,
the few friends possible to Sultan will be
removed. As it is, the Sultan lives in
constant anxiety or apprehension. He may
be poisoned at any time unless he can Sc
cure the fidelity of his cooks and faster.
His immediate officers and servants may be
loyal, or they may not. Midhat Pasha has
been very useful to the present Sultan, and
has large and powerful following. To
kill such man might precipitate an insur-
rection, or at least produce an intrigue
with assassination for its ultimate object
Midhat Pasha is not an old man, and he
may return from Ell Hadjez, moreover.

WARNER MILLER.

Senator Warner Miller has been display.
ing so much garrulity at his entrance into
his high Office as to alarm his friends and
crafty his enemies. He is a paper manu-.
facturer, and, unfortunately, his sole pub
lie act heretofore has been an agitation for
the increase Of the duty on wood pulp.
This, therefore, was rather delicate sub
ject for him to handle, but at the annual
meeting of the Paper Makers Association
he grappled with it boldly and imprudent.
ly, and at the same time took the oppor-
tunity of declaring himself in favor of SUBJ
sidizing steamship lines to carry his paper
to Brazil and elsewhere. Nj. Miller has
fattened on protection SO long that he
seems to have lost all sense of modesty
1t is not enough for him that the consum.
ers are forced to pay fancy price for his
paper, but he would further tax them to
establish steamship lines to extend his bust
ness abroad. We have no doubt that there
are plenty Of protected manufacturers who
entertain quite as audaoious ideas as these,
but if they are fortunate enough to get to
the United States Senate, they are usually
sufficiently discreet to maintain judicious
reticence on their personal desires. Sen
ator Miller lacks this discretion, and the
consequence is that he has said things
which he will probably have cause to re-
gret eventually.
