whether or not a majority of the New
York delegates TO tho National Demo-
cratic Convention is heartily in favor
of the nomination Of Governor Cleve-
land, and will, therefore, under the
IL it rule secure a nucleus of - votes
for the CloveanGers to rally around,
the New York Herald has cominuni-
Gated with the u delegates ana ascer-
tanned as far as practicable their actual
preferences The net result is that 30
are outspoken in their preference for
Cleveland, are known to be for him,
10 are ron-committal, ID were not
reached by the Herald's interviewers
or kilograms; are for Bnyard, is for
Flower and is for Hancock. This il
taken to mean that Cleveland's ma
jority is pretty certain. The omission
to Instruct the delegation was not,
it seems, an exceptional thing.

Childlika Trust in the Butcher

1.-THE women all think they know a
good piece of meat" remarked q
Butcher Yesterday, and think they can
tell lust what part of the critter it comes
from. But none of them know any
thing about it. A butcher can give
them piece from the neck and call it
loin, and they wouldn't know the differ
ence. The men aren't any wiser, either.
tell you people have got to know
their butcher and trust to him, or they
won't get good meat very often. Peo-
ole think it's easy to learn all about
meat, and that butchering is tit busl-
ness for anybody with little money.
That's why all sorts of men are contin-
ually taking o turn at tho meat busi-
ness. But they nearly always fail up.
There are more failures or unsuccessful
ventures in this business than in any
other, though perhaps it merely seems
30 to me because | always notice them.
It's not an easy business to learn, that
sure. Why once had man working
for me who had been around meat for
ten years, but he didn't know much
about it. I've been at it twenty-eigh,
wears myself, and ] find that ! am
learning points all the while. "-SprI"g
