KING ALFONSO was Missed by a Paris
mob, and the bad manners therein shown
are exaggerated throughout with the
view that republic is a scapdalOus af-
fair. Violence is wrong, and the Paris
mob should have known better, but to
hold France responsible for this is the
sheerest nonsense. Alfonso was in a
little escapade sometime ago, when his
wife's peace was troubled, and
he is reminded there are others who
do not behave like gentlemen. Reprisals
in Madrid to the French there shows
Europe at heart is barbarous.
FANNY BRYANT and DR.. Newton loved
illicitly. He was married man, and
she was his amanuensis. She was a
very brilliant girl, and intimacy ripened
into love. The end was shame. Both
committed suicide in Chicago, and the
child,was doomed, but the mother could
not kill Robbie. Her letter speaks of
the doubly orphaned 1.-THE child is of no
plebian origin. On the fathers side he
is sprung from Sir Isaac Newton; on her
: side he was descended from the Duke of
Argyle" What sad story this is. Social
life needs culture, pure ethical culture.
A woman must feel that she is something
more than love toy. The heart and

must understand that the treasure OF &
good name is without price.

DEMOCRATS hate civil service reform
this is shown in the treatment of Geo
H. PendletOn, by his own party, because
he has had his name connected with
this movement. Although he assumed
the position hypoeritically, for effect
his party would not tolerate his appar-
ent endorsement of civil service reform
when the party had some show of re,
gaining however, hence he was crushed
in his own county and home. The
Democratic nominee for mayor Of In
dianapOlis, said in his accepting speech

office of mayor in a way that will bring
success to the Democratic party" There

evils of the "spoIls" system that so ours
