It's about as dangerous to tackle a
New Jersey editor as it is to attempt to
annihilate Mr.. Sullivan of Boston. A
man i'll Bridgeton, N. j., went into the
office of the editor of a local paper the
other day and attempted to shoot him.
The editors fist, however, proved more
dangerous than the angry mans revolt
yer, and the assailant was knocked
down and beaten so badly that he's not
expected to live. Moral, never attempt
to bully an editor i'll his own apart
ments. While there he's monarch of
all he surveys and will brook no insult.
The next Jerseyman who feels like at
tempting it ought to blaze away with
n of Krupp's canuons instead of an
ordinary-sized pistol.-Evenirg News.

the ne.pcrable eonrtsts of the asst In
the Thirty-fourth Congress two months
were c msumed in electing a Speaker,
the choice falling upon N. z. Banks
on the one hundred and thirty-third
ballst; and in the Thirty-sixth Con-
gress IA struggle qnite as protracted re-
suited in the election of William Pen
ningtoe. Rut these contests were in
the house itself and grew out of the
evenly balanced condition of parties,
while the present struggle is wholly
within one part. and is likely to be
settled before Congress converse. One
feature of the contest is the candidacy
of Mr.. Fox, who has many supporters
all OF whom ARE like the candidate him
self, innocent of any attempt at joking
in this case. But it is a fact that Mr..
Cox has IA deserved reputation for be-
ing funny, and it is difficult to assoc
ate this with the idea of dignity; henc
there is an u~ndisguised fear that, how
ever able and web deserving he may be
he would not lend to the losition that
appearance of dignity and staterman-
ship now so important to the party.

Thus far there has been even less socia

count of the extraordinary absorption
of such society ladies' as are already
here in furnishing the new houses into
which so many of them ere entering.
1t is rather surprising to see so many
prominent and fashionable ladies at
tending the auctions of fine furniture
and housekeeping goods Is one meets
here. III This respect Washington is
different from most other large cities.
Women do not lose caste in the most
select social circles here by attending

Our salaried officers, indeed, whether
in civil or military life, if they live on
their salaries, are compelled to DO so
and their wives have less pin-moDey

more nice things in the line of furnish

here than in any other city, l think,
which is largely on account of our
changing population, including foreign
ambassadors and people of wealth
They come for a time and are soon off

Hallet Kilbourn don't find it such an
easy matter to get a big sum out of
Uncle Sam as he thought. For the sec
ond time the verdict given hin by a
Washington jury has been set aside.
Yon can rely upon a Washington jury
to vote large damages in a case of this
kind every time, because nearly every
body here lives by multching the gov
eminent in II way or another, but
our judges appear to have a leaning the
other way. There is no doubt that
Kilbourn's imprisonment for refusing to
divulge his private affairs, if they were
private affairs, was illegal, but there is
considerable doubt about his being en-
titled to very large damages. The first
verdict of 500, 900 was very properly
set aside as excessive, and the last one,
though not much more than half as
large, was just as properly annulled by
the court for the same reason. No
doubt Kilbourn will sue for a million
next time, but if he gets 5000 it will
b. handsome pay for all the real dam
age he sustained.

The French are determined to have
revenge upon the Germans if they can
not whip them. The other day a
Frenchman in London gave informa-
ton to the police which led to the ar
rest of a German socialist and the dis
covery of several internal machines in
his house. The internal machines
were all ready for use and theic cap
ture is said to be a great set back 10
the Socialists. The loss itself was bad
enough, together with the arrest of an
expert Internal machine mak"y, but to
think that it was ali due to a French
man was enough TO excite even the
phlegmatic mihd of the German almost
beyond control. In Il short time the
Kilkenny cats will be truly emblemat-
ic of the relations of the French and
German nations.
