A merchant who never gives of
Tense himself complains that the
sidewalks, already too narrow, are
allowed to be blocked by packages
and articles of merchandise. II is
one of our villagy pecadilloes, that
stand between us and recognition as
modern metropolis.
It is sad that Pasteur's method of
vaccination for cattle plague has
proved completely successful in In
dia for elephants, horses, asses,
cows, buffalees and sheep. Per-
haps vaccination for CHAMBERS would
save much wealth in horseflesh, not
to mention ammunition.
The New York Nation says the
English drink five times as much
tea as coffee, while the Americans
drink eight times as much coffee as
tea, and this disparity of national
appetite in the matter of dietary
beverage is steadily increasing be-
tween the two countries.
They have it in Dublin that the
Duke of Connaught, one Of Queen
Victoria's sons, has arranged to re-
side in Ireland in the near future.
He will live privately and in no way
interfere with the official actions of
the viceroy. If English royalty had
been more intimate with Ireland in
the past, Irish disloyalty would not

The constitutionality of the Terri
torial law prescribing the anti-poly-
gamy test-oath to oflice-holders and
voters has been affirmed by Chief
Justice Hayes, of Idaho. Laws
against polygamy are beginning, not
too soon, to be vigorously asserted

baum was the agent who disposed
of the Hawaiian sugar crop to the
American Refinery Several of
those best qualified to speak upon
the subject, have authorized us to
say that the statement in question
is entirely without foundation.
a Pittsburg despatch says the
outlook in the iron trade has not
been more favorable for many years
than it is at present. This means a
prospect of good times in the States,
for the keynote in the scale of
manufacturing enterprises is struck
on iron. When the iron furnaces
are kept well heated, they glow in
the faces of workmen in every de-
partment of trade.
A village preacher in Pennsylva-
MIA was attacked and knocked down
in his pulpit for referring to Gen
eral Grant in connection with an
enumeration of names of distin-
guished persons of ancient and
modern times. That preachers APP
probation of the fighting qualities
of the hero of his sermon would
have been best expressed by taking
that nearer by the nape of the neck
and executing sentence of ex
communication through the nearest
window.
The advance of prohibition senti
ment in the Southern States is some
thing remarkable. An idea of it,
strength may be gathered from tho
announcement of the Atlanta Con
stitution that ''Prohibition presents
the most important issue now before
the people of Georgia, and thu
acknowledgment made, evidently il
trepidation, by that paper, that thu
forcing of prohibition into politics
"would threaten the integrity of TIL,
