The New York Tribune, discussing
Mrs Langtry's success with the public
as an audience attracting feature, consid-
eFs the moral force of her nature, which
that paper seems TO think is not great
The point chiefly made in the article is
this: though Mrs. Langtry got the theat-
rical recognition she aimed at, she was
denied the social consideration che wish
to secure This is the concluding para
graph: When the laxity and recklessness
and vice of the metropolis are reckened
up, set this this down to its credit; three
brilliant and notorious women, welcomed
in good society abroad, have in late years
achieved in turn marked professional
success here, but, though in some cases
pressingly introduced, not one has been
received under respectable New York
lady's roof"

The love of flowers is very dear to the
female heart. In the .squalid tenament
houses CT New York a reporter found
that most of the women who were not
personally degraded had pots of flowers
in their windows, evidently got at great
sacrifice of scanty earnings. These flow
ers were carefully cherished, as though
from them came the only consolation for
the wretchedness, misery and foul air OF
the surroundings. There is something
good left in the woman who loves flowers.

The present epidemic of suicide through
out the country continues to be interest
ing for the eccentricity that characterizes
so many of them. One of the oldest
cases on record was that of Colonel Pick
etts, Texas lawyer. He lost case, and
got soundly abused by his client, where
upon he took morphine and died. Such
sensativeness in a lawyer almost passes
belief. Samuel Magruder, of Maryland,
killed himself because of grief for his first
wife, though he had been married to
another and no less estimable lady for q
year Mrs. H. v Jones, of Philadelphia,
had been married but two months Hei

flung herself into mill pond, and was

they had lived beyond their time. Mrs.

CHICAGO, July 3l--Joseph Pulitzer editor
of The New York World, stopped at the
Grand Pacific on his way through the city,
and talked politics to a reporter as follows:

"The sentiment of the best portion Of thu

Not that he is not good man, but because po-
lltchlly he represents Pennsylvania, II state

Democratic party Such men as Hewitt,
Dorsheimer, Perry Belmont, Orlando Potter,
Gen. Slocum, and others are outspoken
against Randall. The New York delegation

of clecting him they will probably go TO Car
