How a Noted Duelist Died,

From Saturday Review.
The Comte de Larrillierc, one of
the wcllbon among bretteurs, met
one day on the street a business
man named Castcra walking with
his young and pretty wife. He
advanced to him and said with a
polite bow; 81 beg your pardon,
but | have made a bet with my
friend here, whom | beg to intro
duce to You, that | would kiss your
wife while she was walking with
youN-herc the other man turned
livid- after having given you a
slap in the face" Castera fought
him the next day with pistols. The
counts first shot hit C@astera on the
right ear, the second on the left.
Before the third he said "Cstte
.foes je. feyai moucdt," and with the
third he shot Castera through the
eye. Castera was reyenged in a
manner dramatic enough. One
night IA Larrilliere sat in his favor,

TALKING.

his receptions in almost every nook
and corner of the land, there is a
great deal of incorrect talking, ev-
en- among educated people. Bish-
OPP Clark gives a few specimens OF
these popular errors OF speech in
the form OF a dialogue between a
careless talkcr and a critical friend.

a Double Sack i.

The Winnemucca Silver State
says: Should Fair conclude to re-
sign his seat in the Senate. it
would devolve upon Governor
Adams to appoint his successor un-
til the meeting Of the next Legis
lature. This would make the next
election in Nevada doubly interest
ing in a political and pecuniary
sense, as the Legislature would
then have two Senators to elect
one for the short term to succeed
Fair, and one for the long term to
succeed Jones. As it is said, and
doubtless the truth, that victory is
always on the side of the heaviest
purse in Nevada Senatorial cleo
tons, a sack. of unusual weight
might be brought into the contest
next year, as two candidates for
Senatorial honors on each side
would probably make oint con-
tribution to the election fund, and
votes would bring about dou BILE
the the usual price.

WHAT ARE NEWSPAPERS

Rev. Joseph Cook looks down
from his sublime height to utter
these words to the pigmies below ::
II know that editors look upon
their papers as upon bank bills
I ask that editors should make their
profession something more than a
financial venture" We timidly
raise our eyes from the ground to
return the compliment, and del

Rev. Joseph Cook and his K

sol2 Has not that bowling jump

preacher Harrison. frequently
disguised the churches by his
greedy rapacty. Admonition to
newspapers from such a source
with as good grace as a sermon
from an over fed Alderman on the
sin of gluttony.- Sacramento Bee
The press is partly responsible
for the idea that newspapers are
run to ameliorate tho condition Of
the masses, to stand up for the
public and to advance higher
thought. A large majority of edi-
tors assume that their mission on
earth is purely for the public good
and not for any financial purposes
whatever. Now this is all pure
rot and every journalist knows it.
Publishing a paper is like any
other business, money making
proposition. TO make money is
always the first consideration and
the public second. No publisher
will deny this for a moment. The
journalist must live like other PEG
pie, eat food, wear clothes and sup
port his family. When he finds
that his paper does not pay he will
drop it and try something else.
Men have tried to publish papers
to let people know that they had
certain ideas on certain subjects
and without any regard to the
financial side of the business. Such
papers, sooner or later, fail. When a
journalist goes about pretending
that he is not in the business TO
make money. but merely to enun-
ciate the basis upon which some
great principle is founded. people
take him at his word and let him go
ahead with his great principle-at
his own expense.
