ALL over the country the newspapers
are praising young men for going into
politics. That Is right. Give the young
men chance. But there is nothing
phenomenal in this discovered presence
OF the young men in political affairs.
Those who are now notable objects of
such attention are no younger than were
Hamilton and Jefferson, Clay and Cal
houn, Dellbitt Clinton and Seward,
Forney, Cameron, Cassidy, Wallace,
Randall and Others now conspicuous in
Pennsylvania politics when they first
became so. They we're all young once.

MAuoyE claims that the intimidation of
the negro vote caused his defeat, but the
facts will not bear out this statement. A
study Of the returns shows that the Read
justor vote this year is larger than any cas-:

The truth Of the matter is that the con.

The Denver Republican says of
"Pique," in which Miss Coombs APP
pears here Monday night:
"PIque" has been presented by bet
ter companies than the one which is
now playing it at the Tabor Grand, but
1t is questionable If the leading part
was ever better played than 1t was by
Miss Jane Coombs last evening. Not
that the company is a bad one, for,
taken as a whole, it has much merit;
but there is a weakness where one
looks for strength and strength where
weakness would be overlooked.
There is but little fault to be found
with Miss Coombs. She is a beautiful
woman and an accomplished actress.
Her Mabel Renfrew is something of a
study. 1t is more noticeable because
careful attention is so rarely paid to
the portrayal of inner character in
parts in society plays. Beauty and fine
dressing are too often made to take the
place of good acting. Miss Coombs
shows us not only the form and dress
ing Of a society belle, who, through
pique, has married a man she does not
love; she shows us the heart and soul
of the woman. She has a sweet voice,
and very excellent control over i, ex.
cept now and then in scenes where pas.
sion Is required.

riage of Rush H. Lewis, of st. LOUIS, and
Kate E. Reese, daughter of Col. H. B.
Reese, of this city, and niece of Senator

Iglehart seriously though not fatally
wounding him as he was descending the
steps of o notorious house with Lewis
wife on his arm. The affair led to the
divorce of Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis shortly
afterward, he retaining the custody of

but he hoped for the pacific solution of
the difficulty. The French papers ex-
press approval of admiral Pierre's
action in bombarding and capturing

aud predict that the Hovas will soon be
compelled to capitulate. The Soci con-
tends that the Hoyas are 80 detested by

do not forthwith yield to the French they
will run great RISKS of being massacred.

THE report that Brady and Do rsey, the
star route twins, are about to commence
libel suits against the papers that have
expressed opinions of them not consistent
with the certificate of good character
gwen them by the star route jury last
week, affords the press of the country
good deal of amusement ana the papers
are now engaged in contest with each
other, each journal trying TO prove itself
the first and most emphatic IN denounc-
ing them as thieves and robbers of the
government. The New York Times has
been spotted as one among the first VIC
Tins, but 1t says the friends of these two
acquitted gentlemen have advised them
that if the Times shows proper contrition
by acquiescing IN the verdict and ceasing
its warfare, their better policy would be
to let it alone. In reply the Times says
"Well, the Times oes not acquiesce IN
the verdict and will continue the warfare.
If this course should be unsatisfactory to
James ". Brady, Stephen Dorsey, or
any othe- star route thief, and they
choose to vindicatc themselves IN libel
suits, the Times will welcome the oppor-
tun,ty of doing the republican party and
tue country the grandest service of which
it Is capable by proving in court Of law
that they are thieves" This will not be
very encouraging to these acquitted gen
tlcmen of star route notoriety. A news
paper that wants to be sued for libel is
not very comfortable thing TO catch on
to. The world lis full of people who
would like to let 60 of newspapers they
have sued for libel. The trial furnishes a
record from which the prosecuted news
paper can draw its rations of ammuni
ton forever afterwards, from which the
prosecutor can only escape by converting
himself into a subsoil fertilizer for q
graveyard. There Is more terror to Of
fetal thieves and bon ton scoundrels in
the newspapers than there is IN the
criminal Law of the land.
