rs ITAN OBJECTIONABLE sINq

DR.. TALMAGE says that Irritation is damna-
tion. That is pretty strong language, but
coming from an orthodox divine it deserves
consideration. Filtration as we understand
it means coquetry. And being such COM
mon practice among the young people of this
generation the declaration of Brooklyn's
great pulpit orator falls with startling effect
upon the public ear. Is it so that all of our
young women, and perhaps one-half of our
young men, are under condemnation and
are on the downward road to everlasting tor
ment because Of indulging in what they re-
gard an innocent sort of pastime2 We are
willing to admit that Irritation is reprehensi-
BILE, that the time devoted to it is misspent,
and it is waste of loves sweet pleasures.
1t must be conceded that it is an inexcusable
vanity in woman to desire to reign over a
crowd of hearts instead of seeking to make
one true, manly lover blest There is some
thing absolutely detestable about your old
coquette who can't say "No" and won't say
eyes," who
Keeps you on and ofing
On q lea shore, till it begins to blow;
Then sees your heart wrecked with an inward
scoffing.
Even DR.. TALMAGE, If the truth was
know, in common with thousands Of other
poor, wretched men, has been made to feel
the danger
''In the dazzling eye
That woos thee with its witching smile.''
Yet, for all this, we fear that the eminent
divine has been extravagant in his language.
There are so many other worse offenses call
ing for everlasting punishment that some
how we are inclined to the doctrine that the
sin of Irritation finds its own reward here in
this world. The old coquette who disdains
suit after suit and glories In the pains her
lovers suffer will find after while that her
youth is past and her beauty fed, and as she
fades with age her lovers fly from her. Con-
temned and forlorn, she at last pines away
and dies. She expiates the folly of her
youthful pride in the miserable ending of
soured life. While there is so much to COM
mend in the excellent sermon preached by
DR.. TALNAGE last Sunday as published in the
GLOBE on yesterday, we hesitate to dissent
from any part of it, but the expression ''fir-
tation is damnation" is rather too strong to
pass without criticism.

NO REST FOR THE WEARY POLITE
QTAN

The ways OF politician are hard and his
steps lead down to death. The more infu-
ence politician has the harder his life. This
truth finds melancholy illustration in the
case of DR.. MILLER, the editor of the Omaha
Herald. The doctor is the brainy man of
the Democratic party in Nebraska and is
recognized as one of the leaders of Western
Democracy. His name was prominently can
vassed in connection with cabinet position.
But the doctor is modest gentleman and
hasn't pushed himself for anything. How
ever, he found that his supposed influence
with the administration was to be torture
to him, for every applicant for position in all
the wide West at once began to crowd the
doctor for testimonials, until at last in self
defense he was compelled to publish card
in the Herald announcing in most emphatic
terms that he would sign no more petitions.
This announcement, proper enough in it.
self, did not bring the relief that was antici-
pated. 1t is true the DOCTORS mail fell
Oft considerably, and his front door
was not jammed with crowd of
hungry office-seekers from daylight till
dark, but there went up long wall, that
swept over the Nebraska prairies like full
grown cyclone, charging the editor of the
Herald with ingratitude. And again he
finds it necessary to rise and explain. which
is done in the following card which appears
in last Fridays Herald:
A MISTAKE.
A few days ago printed a necessary notice to
Democratic friends in the state to cease sending
petitions to me for postoffices and other offices.

l should not forward any more of them to Wash

that have refused to take any part in securing
appointments to office. meant nothing of the
kind. 1 said nothing of the kind. 1 rarely sign
petitions for any purpose. declined to receive
and forward them to Washington because candi-
dates for office can do this as well and better
than l can, for the reason that the average
chirography is not so much like Chinese some
people say mine is. Besides, it may occur to
some people that candidates have more time
than have at my disposal in which to do this.
No man is more viking to serve his friends or
his party than 1 am, but I am sure shall be
permitted, without offense, to choose my own
time and way of performing this grateful service.

NEW CHARGE AGAINST THE ARCHITECT.
When the Clark investigation was resumed
to-day Mr.. jackson, representing the stone
cutters, read a supplemental charge against
Mr. Clark, alleging that while receiving pay as
architect OF the Capitol, he assumed certain
other employment and notably the duties OF
referee In the case Of Samuel Strong against the
District, to which he had devoted much time,
and that he had presented bill which had
been disallowed.
Major Jonas suggested that this matter be
deferred until after they had concluded the
branch OF the investigation In which they were
now engaged.
Mr.: Samuel Strong was next called as a wit
ness In reference t. the workmanship and ma
oeriai In the new wing of the City Hall build
ing. lie had discovered, he said, that he had
moticed defects In all the stone caps or lintels.
The stones Were OF q variety of colors. Mr..
strong criticised the material and construction
CONSIDERABLY, saying that he believed that IL
was, Tor a new building, without exception, the
most cracked up" piece Of stone work he had
ever seen. He said the plastering I'm the build
ing mad been very roughly done. The plaster
had cracked, probably from the settling OF the
building or from the fact that the mortar had
not been made correctly. ''rake IL all in all, /"
he said, 81 consider IL a very rough Job, inside
and out" III he had been the sworn agent of
the government, he said, he would never have
received 1t. Upon crOss-eXamination the wit
ness said that he did not know what the con-
dltion OF the stone was when ii was put in; he
MAD never known stones to be affected so much
by weather.

THE WIFE OF A WASHINGTON MAN THE CON.
TEsTANT.
New York Letter to the baltimore SUM-
Surrogate Bergen, OF Brooklyn, began to-day
to hear a contest OF the probate OF the second
will of the late Mrs Boury, OF 100 Columbia
Heights. Forty years ago Mrs. Boury was a
resident of Baltimore and adopted a baby girl
as her daughter, and brought her up as such. In
1s60 this adopted daughter-or Miss Boury. rs
she was known-was married TO "A Mr. Mat
tlngly, OF Washington. A daughter was tho
result OF this union. She was named Mary and
ter, and until after the old lady's death neither
Mrs. Mattingly nor her daughter was aware
that they were not blood relations of Mrs
Boury. Mrs. Boury executed a will I'm June,
valued at 5000, 900, TO her husband during his
lifetime. At his death the property was 10
revert TO her son, Edward A. Boury for
bis lifetime, and at his death 1t was to
OF his four children and one-fifih 20 Miss
Mary Mattlngly, the adopted grand
daughter. At this time Mr.. Boury was 81 years
of age, and his wife 7s. Just before her death,
another will, displacing Edward Higgins OF
Baltimore, the executor I'm the first will and
appointing her son Edward instead. The mate
rial change In the will was that instead OF de-
wishing about 100000 TO Miss Mattingly she
was only to receive 5000 a year beside the lib
eral gifts she had received during the lifetime
OF her grandmother. Mrs. Maitingly was pro-
vided for. having received a handsome present
on her marriage. Mr.. and Mrs. Boury died re-
Gently, and the executor, Edward a. Boury,
offered the second will tor probate. Mrs. Mat
tingly, for her daughter, opposes this WILL and
contends that the first will should be substi-
procured by Edward A. Boury by fraud and
undue influence. The hearing was adjourned.

The Teachers Tenure of Office.
THE CHANGE IN THE RULES PROPOSED By
TRUSTEE SMITH

School Trustee James H. Smith, who was
present at the meeting of the committee Tues
day night, took occasion to urge the advisable
lty OF adopting the amendment to the rules
offered by him at the last meeting Of the board
providing for the permanent appointment OF
teachers and securing them In their offices,
except when they may be dropped from the
board Tor proper reasons. Mr.. Smith said to a
STAR reporter to-day that he intended to press
MS proposed amendment at the next meeting
or the board under a suspension OF the rules,
and hoped to secure its adoption. The troubles
In the second division, he said, formed the
strongest argument in favor of his proposed
rule. He considered the present SYSTEM as UNI
just to the teachers and demoralizing in the
extreme. There was no reason why the
whole corps of teachers should have to go
through this form of appointment every year.
One result was that the same teachers exerted
themselves, not in the interest of the schools,
but to curry favor with the one man upon
whom their reappointment depended. Mr.
smith thought that the supervising principal
whose official duties required his constant
attendance in the schools, was much better
able to judge of the qualifications Of teachers
than the trustee, who, necessarily could spend
but very little time in each school during the
year. Mr.. Smith expects that his proposed
amendment will be carried.
