Wifs-Beating as a PaStime

There is no sense of chivalry in this
country. and you will readily under
stand when I tell you that it is no un-
common thing for men of the lower
types to wsllop their wives ia the
streets, without interference. One OF
the high and holy privileges of
British citizenship is the freedom to
whale your wife as early and as often
as the inclination strikes you. Sit
ting in a second story room up in ST.
Martins street, the other night saw
a singnIarly vivid illustration of this
fact. A worthy though somewhat al
coholic, subject OF this monarchy was

would never have thought of interior
ing in a maDner like this. Equally

newly arrived Am eriosn at that, Well,
the British husband picked himself
up out of the gutter and went back at
his wife, who was awaiting the COM
pIetion of her thrsshing with great
t0rSitude, not to say philosophy. The
Americans next move was to pick up
q paVing.stone and to tell the beili.
cose family man that If he went any
further he would get his head
mashed.

yourself, you big, hulking BLACKBOARD,

A Costly Experiment.

WASHINGTON, June 13.-Commission-

OF sorghum by the agricultural bureau
in this city has been found 80 expensive
and unsatisfactory that the work can be

were 80 badly damaged by frost that the
crop on them could not be used. From

cred n tons Of cane, from which I65
pounds Of sugar were made. This sugar
cost the government $8,6E7, or nearly

assertion that the manufacture of sor.
