PHILADELPHIA. February 4. 1888.

You enjoy perhaps an &C
casional chat with a friend
familiar with the World OF
Letters, whose taste is pure,
whose judgment is keen,
whose standards are high, and
whose every word and action
are tempered by a modest
spirit.
Book News is such a visi-
tor. 1t is, probably, neither
above nor below your indi-
vidual plane. 1t touches the
almost universal need, and
reasonably satisfies it-some-
times, perhaps, before the
need is recognized.
A book comes into the
world. You would like to
get a timely hint OF what it
amounts to. The pub lsher's
advertisement can't by any
possibility more than fix and
sharpen your expectation.
You want an outside hint.
You want it promptly while
the book is fresh. You want
it short and bright and easy;
Tor there are many to think
of and rea ding is but your
pleasure, not your occupa-
ton. What little you are
going to know about books
without reading them YOU
want to be fairly sure Of. 1t
is a very modest sort Ct
knowledge at the best; only
an impression. But we go
by impressions mainly; the
larger half OF our actions
nay, the DRIFT of our lives
have no better bottom. We
cannot wait tor knowledge.
Impression is a sort of popu-
lar vote on a question OF fact.
1t does not settle the fact :;
but it settles what is going
to be done about it.
Book News is by no means
made for learned people
alone. 1t is made for igno-
rant people too. Ninety-nine
in a h ndred, it is made for
you. Are we not ignorant,
all alike about the new
books? We differ much in
the use we make of guide
books when we visit a for
eign country. The guide.
books do not differ. Book
News is a guide hook to
books. 1t quotes of a recent
book the pith Of what a critic
says of it. A dozen critics
have written. Book News
picks the reasonable critic
out OF the dozen and prints
the gist of his writing. 1t
may be wrong. Even critics
and editors err. But you
get an impression OF a score
or more OF the newer books
by glancing over the nimble
pages once a month and
that impression, it is fair to
say,is probably about as right
and true as the most of what
most OF us call our knowl-
edge.
1t wouldn't be modest to
put too exact all estimate
here upon the e d itor' S
breadth OF view, discernment,
learning, wisdom, competence;
nor would it answer our pur-
pose. 1t has been said OF
doctor Holmes just now, SO
happily as to quite atone Tor
1.-THE slight disparagement. that
6 the place the venerable
Autocrat fills is rather in the
hearts than in the brains O

,Doys exactly such apprecia
ton.

The sentiment against hazing contln-
ues to grow stronger and the young men
who indulge in it will soon learn that
people have ceased to make any distinc-
ton between it and street rowdyism
which demands the interference of the
police. It has nothing to recommend it
except custom, which would be far more
honored in the breach than in the observ.
ance. 1t seems strange that young men
do not see how unmanly the practice is.
1t has nothing to commend it, requires
no exercise of courage, has no element
of danger to the perpetrators, and has
not even the small merit of originality.
If the young men would think it over
they would see it is cowardly, cruel and
inhuman. A strange, timid boy does not
receive that treatment which sense of
chiyalry would prompt and the action of
the older pupils is strikingly like that of
a flock of young turkeys, when stray
away from another flock comes among
them. Any boy of spirit who has analyz-
ed the cowardly and cruel custom of
hazing must have his sympathies aroused
in favor of the sufferer. And it won't do
to argue that no bodily harm is DONE
There is feeling of humiliation which
is much more trying than physical suf-
fering. 1t is strange that the manly spirit
which is quite common in colleges, does
not revalt against this senseless and
brutal practice and make some manly
young fellow assume the role of pro-
tector of these green boys. and not a
prosecutor. 1t is fun, but not for the
sufferer, and when the victim will enter
into the spirit of the thing and shoot one
of the barbarians thus showing that both
sides can take part in the fun, it will
cease.

HE evolutionists have finally settled
the question as to whether men originally
had tails. A Geneva professor has been
for years giving attention to the question
and now says the embryonic tail of a
human foetus is undistinguishable from
the tail of the foetus of tailed animal
at the same stage of Development
Scientists have always believed that the
coccyx in the human body was nothing
more nor less than evidence of tail.
Late researches have confirmed belief in
this theory.

THE next English parliament will with
out question disestablish the English
church. The demand for this in Scotland
IS most pronounced. But it is said the
success of the movement will depend
largely upon the Catholic members of
parliament. Chamberlain is out-spokeu
in favor of it. He explains that endow-
ment of the church. originally was for
educational purposes but now, it is solely
for the benefit of sect and that the
endowments now should go toward
education.

TIE election frauds of 1876 kept the
republican party in power for eight
years, but it has been a curse to the
country. Now in close election it is
thought the proper thing to count out.
There is no longer an honest attempt to
get at the facts. Fraud was successful
in 1876 and fraud is now looked apon as
perfectly legitimate means to insure
party success. John Sherman is looked
upon as statesman, but he is one of the
men who inaugurated the system of
counting out and debauched the public
conscience in political matters. All the
villains who introduced the system have
been rewarded, and the lesser villains are
emulating their example. This is what
the election of 1876 has done for the
country, and it is at this fearful cost that
the republican party maintained tenn.
porary ascendancy. Sherman became
a member of the cabinet; admiring
friends, when his term had expired, sent
him to the senate, and he has for years
been a prominent candidate for the pres
idency, Notwithstanding his champion
ship of the rascality which has been
more ruinous to the country than the
rebellion.

The Halsted letter and the action of
the republican state convention of Vir-
ginia in passing resolution favoring the
granting of state pensions to destitute
and disabled rebel soldiers have received
no very severe comments from republi-
can journals. But Lee cannot ride a
black stallion without being charged with
disloyalty. Of course it is highly proper
for the state to take care of its poor; it
is matter of humanity and the republi-
can convention is entitled to credit for
the resolution. But at the same time
people cannot help thinking how the
tocsin would be sounded if this were the
action of democratic convention.

THE democrats of Ohio find themselves
in queer box. Hoadley was insane on
the liquor question and wanted to ex-
clude ali issues but whiskey. The dem
ocratic party hoped to profit by the pro-
hibition diversion and aided that imprac-
teal organization. The result is Hoad-
ley sent lots of democrats into the pro-
hibition camp and the coddling of the
prohibitionists alienated the saloon-keep-
ers. Thus in trying to embrace two ex-
trones both were lost.

it might be trying to Lee. A black

A RED NosED man put up at Boston
hotel lately and was sent up to room
on the top floor as the hotel was crowd
ed. A later arrival was sent to the same
room and was awakened through the
night by terrible commotion, in which
shrieks, grunts, chokings and fog horn
tootings seemed to be commingled. He
started up thinking cyclone had struck
the city, bat soon found it was his room
mate snoring. He procured straw and
tickled the red nose but it worked with
increased energy. He shook the owner
of the nose but that organ footed the
louder. Finally he took club and be-
labored the man of eloquent nose and
the sleeper awakening while the last nam
cd preventive was being applied, rushed
from the room and tumbled down stairs.
He had the man with the club arrested
but the police justice rendered a decision
of justiiable humping and the prisoner
was discharged.
Now, why can't those whose lives are
made burden because of the proximity
of some person whose nose is riotously
active through the night take hint from
the decision of this police justice? Why
should not the snorer be killed? A we'll
regulated nose will not snore. A nose
which will snore should be abolished.
The functions of the nose should be
established by statute and any departure
from prescribed duties should be the &C.
with the offense. A man who snorcs and
snorts should have no rights entitled to
respect.

CHAUNCEY NJ. DEPEw and Fred. Grant
have devised little scheme whereby
they might live for while in the public
eye in a half sensational way. General
Grant is the means these purvenus are
using. President johnson is described
as white thrash, who learned to hate slave
holders not because of the system OF
slavery but because he was not treated as
social equal. This is very likely
While a journeyman tailor, johnson
would hardly expect to be recognized as
being on social equality with the wealthy
nabobs of the south. But Grant, &C
cording to Depew, says Johnson was mad
because of this and made up his mind to
hang all the prominent southerners out
OF spite. "The narrative" Depew
writes, "was one of the most graphic
descriptions to which L ever listened and
it Is unfortunate for history and posterity
that it cannot be preserved as it was
told" Alas, for posterity and alas, for
history, why should they be thus cruelty
deprived of this graphic description 1t
is astonishing how much posterity and
history are losing overy day because of
little neglect.
But Grant kicked against the hanging
business and the big rebels fattered
Johnson and from an insane desire to
hang them, he turned complete somer-
sault and decided to give them possession
of the government. But here Grant
kicked again and this time saved the
government.
Col. Fred Grant whose only capital in
life has been ''father" writes Depew that
the account is substantially correct. He
has verified it "by facts, documents and
personal recollections. Now is the
time for Col. Fred to write book. For
a day or SO people will talk of him and if
be can fish out book in that short time
he may put money in his purse.

ABOUT the most senseless thing in con-
nection with theOhio election is to charge
the defeat of the democrats to Frank
Hurd. The time is coming when the
principles advocated by Frank Hurd
must be believed in as a condition pre-
cedont to being democrat. 1t is inf
nitely better to go down to defeat advo-
eating free trade than to steal victory
on any such grounds as Hoadley advo-
Gated.

PRESIDENT BAscoA might give little
less attention to prohibition and make a
good president of the University. 1t be-
gins to look as if he were something of
a hypocrite for the reason that it won t
do to assume he is fool. He opposed
high license, and why9 The belief is
forcing itself upon the presidents former
admirers that he is a crank. The pro-
hibition party has lately demonstrated
it's thorough impracticability and-it may
be added-insincerity.
