the perpetuation of their fatal trade while
the friends of temperance divide their en-
deavors, throw away their votes, and refuse
to unite with those who alone proffer them
any hopeful aid. because they cannot at once
secure all they desire. This may be standing
up for the right, but it seems more to us
like sitting down on common sense.'
Pennsylvania court has made decision
which will give an ill-treated woman her
rights. A wealthy widower concluded to
the formal engagement which preceded his
second marriage transferred to trustees all
his real estate to be held in trust for himself
during his life and after his death to be con-
veyed to his three children by his first wife.
When the trust deed was executed it was I'M
derstood between him and his intended bride
that they were soon to become engaged to
be married She knew that he was possessed
of large amount of property, but at the
time of her marriage she was ignorant OF
the secret transfer that had been made.
Soon after they were arried the husband
died, when the trust deed, whose effect if
valid would have been to deprive the widow
of her dover, was brought to light. In
spite of the deed she claimed her share in
the estate and sued the trustees The court

"Julia" wants to know "what a
party platform is" Well, a platform,
Julia, is one preamble and twenty
resolutions, strong in non essentials,
vague in essentials; around the bush
on tariff and rough as thunder on
Mormons clamorous for civil ser
vice reform, with a reserved defini-
ton for civil service reform; down
on corruption, loud in its praise OF
purity and determined to have it If 1t
takes every cent the party can raise.
The platform, you understand, Julia.
is a legitimate and necessary part VI
the campaign pomp and circum-
stances; it goes along with the ban,
ners, transparencies and torches, and
when the campaign is over-well' it
is stored away in the cellar or gar

forms and torches. A campaign
platform is very much like the cam

she is relentlessly whispered into suicides

indignant verdict of Society, whilst the I'M
fortunate gentleman who has been seduced
from the path of moral rectitude is received
with sympaty by his old associates. And
this is true of the fashionable world. 1t
seems the traditional blame upon Eve will
continue to be inexorably affixed upon the
brow of the poor girl by the virtuous frown
ofgood society, while the lord of creation,

fashionable circles.

By the way, the prohibition question is
growing into fearful proportions in this
state, and the capitalists who have their
ninety millions invested in the brewing of
beer in st. Louis are beginning to show
nervousness Prohibition will undoubtedly
lie submitted to the people of Missouri by
our next Legislature, and it is the general
belief that the Sunday law will prevail.
The boss brewers and the twenty-five
hundred saloon keepers of the city are be-
ginning to fear that the ''cranks and luna
tics" as they love to call prohibitionists, are
employing too many methods in their mad
ness.

New YoEES June 26.-There have been a.

have occurred in Jersey City yet, and the
leaders in the movement are continually
preaching moderation4 These leaders
handle the great body sof strikers in re

The scenes in Jersey City are mild re.
minders Of the scenes that accompanied thu
great railroad strike of three or four sum
mers ago, only the police arrangements tc
quell disturbances are more perfect than
| they were at that time. The Headquarters
| building has been connected with the Erie
road offices by private wire and an operator
has been assigned to duty there. The New
Jersey Central railroad and the Pennsyl-
yania railroad offices are connected with
headquarters by telephone. ual
Through these instruments messages are
constantly transmitted as to the movements
of the strikers and the movements of the
police force and specials are regulated ae-
cordingly. Chief Murphy is on the tug
Elmira with Inspector Lange and the reg
ular force. The tug steams from one place
to another-from depot to depot-as occa-
sion demands; The strikers wander from
depot to depot to see that no work is done
in the freight yards and that the men whom
they drove away Friday and Saturday stay
away. t.... -,...t s.z~4...
On this side of the river the work of
receiving goods is progressing very satisfac-
