forms. 1t need not be SO and should not
be; but unfortunately, conventions
seem to think differently.

A Democratic editor in New Bruns-
wick, New Jersey, seems to have excited
some college students in the town to
burn him in effigy because he took occa-
sion to review the career of Mr.. Garfield
and to reiterate the criticisms upon it
which he had doubtless often made in
the presidential campaign. 1t was not
welltimed criticism probably, but yet in
view of the disposition which the ad-
mirers of the late president have shown
to hold Democrats up to condemnation
as hypocrites because of their words of
sorrow for Mr.. Garield's death, it seems
to be question whether the New Jersey
editor was not right, in maintaining his
honesty and consistency to say just what
he thought. 1t is not grateful
thing to do at such time,
but if people will be SO stupid
as to conStrue lamentatiOn for the presi-
dents fate into confession Of false ac-
cusation against him, what other re-
course have we? The assassin's act
changed nothing in our estimation of
Mr.. Garfield but it did change feeling ;
and we should be permitted to express
that without being challenged for our
previous opinions. While ready to say
nothing of the dead but good we must
not lie charged with hypocrisy and with
falsehood toward the dead when living.

to take the chair and allow him (Hensel)
to withdraw his motions, and let the con
ventiUn finish its work. James declined
unless by unanimous consent. McGowan
alone objected. Then Hensel said he
would in the chair withdraw them, rather
than let the call of the house, the appear
ance Of no quorum, and the dissolution of
the convention, prevail. He then directed
the election of chairman to proceed.
The Philadelphians nominated James for
state committee chairman. He declined.

Fashions in Women.

A Western paper seems to think
as clothes. 1t says: "There are
thirty thousand unmarried women
In NJ massachusetts,. Why are these
women unmarried 1t la because
they are of Il pattern which has of
late years gone out of fashion. A
couple of years ago there was in.
troduced the plump English style
of girl. The latter soon became
enormously popular, and the bony
and specialized maidens of Massa-
ohusetts became drug in the mar
ket. 1t was still generally conced-
ed that the Massachusetts girl
knew more about Emerson's phi
losophy and AIcOtt's Orphic utter
ances than did her plumper rival,
but the merits of the former were
no longer able to awaken any en-.
thusiasm. The Boston poetical
young man no longer wrote soH-
nets expressing the emotions of his
heart on hearing the bones Of his
beloved rattle as she ran to greet
him at the gate, and the Boston
youth of fashion no longer pro-
posed at public dinners the once
familiar toast, "Beauty and
Bones" in honor of the fair sex.
In fact, spare and angular girls
went entirely out of fashion, and
Massachus etts men went outside
the boundaries of New England
when they sought for wives"

ever became so popular as "What,

who speak English, says u writer

Stetson ever spelled an English

Riddla'S Raadir0s

Mr.. Riddles announcement of readings in
Rossini hall will interest large number of
persons who will, it may be hoped, avail them
selves of the opportunity of hearing his artistic
rendition of well-selected programme. Par
ticulars are given elsewhere. The Boston
Saturday Evening Gazette says of him:
Mr.. Riddle is gifted with a remarkably fexi-
BILE voice, sweet in quality, and susceptible of
every variety of expression. He reads with
rare intelligence and originality of style. He
has fine sense OF dramatic effect, and there
is an ease, a naturalness, and refinement in
all he does, which we miss in the performances
of most of our public readers.
OF Mr.. Riddles readings given two seasons
since it is not too much to say that the series
was one of the most enjoyable of any of its
kind ever given in Portland, and Mr.. Riddle
may feel sure of hearty welcome. eat none
of his readings did the audience tire, but like
Oliver Twist wanted "more," and that he does
so successfully alone, what many readers fail
TO do even with the assistance of other talent,
shows his superiority.

Tuesday evening of this week was the occa-
sion of very pleasant affair in the parlors of

usual merry voices attracted Prof. Wilson to
the parlor, where he was at once confronted by
Miss Eta Igey. of Walden, who in neat
little speech handed the Professor most ele-
CANT gold headed ebony cane, presented in the
name of his numerous family and few other
pupils. There success in keeping the matter a
secret, and the surprise and pleasure of the
Professor, were highly enjoyed by his happy
family.
A New York interviewer says Miss Cary is
about to leave the stage; that she told him so.
We must decline to believe she said anything

she said it.

at the station has resigned, and her place is
taken by Mrs. Croker and Miss Scales. We
understand that Miss Patrick has done excel
lent work for the poor suffering humanity that
seeks temporary home at the station, as we'll
