gentle and guileless rum sellers that if
We possibly could no anything for them
we would do it gladly; but the way the
laws are now it is regarded as being
last as much of n crime TO kill one of

y fhn A. Hinsey, democrat, demagogue

From Chicago.

The Advance: Three hours and q half
from Chicago to Beloit-beautiful in its
homes, its Inequalities, its college!
Were the latter better known, fewer of
our promising young men would go
East for an education. What is true of
many other things is true of Beloit Col
lege. We do not prize them because
they are near at hand and easy to be OBJ
tanned. Rather an unusual opportunity
to look in upon this college, week OF
two since, has caused the writer of this
letter to place a higher estimate than
formerly upon the quality of its instruc-
ton. The readers of the Advance have
long known that the situation of the
college is unsurpassed; that its campus
is one of the most attractive in the couu-
try; that its faculty is composed of able
and consecrated men, and that its grad
yates are filling some of the most i'm
portant positions in church and state.
But it was revelation to 90 into class
rooms and listen to professors and stu
dents. Everything is thoroughly done
Nothing superficial is allowed. Students
are taught to think, and encouraged TO
ask questions and to study, not for she
sake of hpnors, but for the sake of
knowledge. This effort to be thorough
and exact was as apparent in the Pre-
paratory Department as with Senior. in
the college. The moral influences of
the place are of the best. There was a
maniness about the students which did
one good to see. Chicago is to be congrat.
ulated upon having such an institution
of learning so near at hand, and our
Congregational churches may well re-
joice over the part they have had in its
establishment, and in the privilege
which they now have of literally en-
downing this most worthy school of
science, the arts and religion.

They Improve With Age.

Having occasion the other day to
search for some copies of daily news
papers of certain date in 1875. | was
not surprised to find that at the offices
of the newspapers | could buy no cop
les. Not one of the great dailies could
furnish copy of the date which |
needed, but | was referred in every
case to a man named Robert Budd, for
merly boot-black, who made bust
ness of dealing in back numbers of
newspapers. found him, and in half
an hour had the papers.
Budd's history, or rather that of his
business, is peculiar. He is a coal
black negro, with an intelligent face
and remarkable faculty for estimating
the value of his wares. Although he
has regular price-list, his prices vary
according to what he thinks NAV be
the value of the paper to the would-be
buyer. Some months ago there was a
law case which required the present
ment in court either of certain newspa-
pers or of certified copy of an article
covering several pages in small type.
Budd was the only man in the city who
could furnish the paper; he asked 800
for it, although it was not ten years
old, and had originally cost him but 2
cents. and the sum was paid, for the
certified copy would have cost still
more.
Five years ago Budd had a boot
backing stand ON Broadway, near
Thirtieth street, and at the same time
sold old newspapers. He was struck
with the number of demands made up
on him for copies of newspapers two or
three days, or week, or even month,
old, and he had the idea of adding to
his business that of old newspapers.
That there is demand for old news
papers is simply shown by the business
he has built up. AT present he occu-
pies large cellar, the walls of which
are lined with newspapers tied up in
bundles, each bundle containing the
copies of one month of each year.
There is a tag attached to each bundle
giving the month and year.
As he still keeps up his newspaper
stand he of course gets his papers at
cost price, and when person really
wants a paper there is fine chance
for profit. Every day Budd puts away
twenty copies of The Herald twenty
copies of The sun, ten of The World,
Times, and Tribune each, and five cop
les of each of the evening newspapers.
His schedule of prices is supposed to
be as follows: For papers three days
old, double the price; for papers a
week old, 10 cents; for papers a month
old, % cents; for papers year old, 81;
for papers more than a year old, 81. Is
additional for every year. But, as
said before, this schedule is no guide
in case Budd discovers that the paper
is of great Importance. Soon after he
began business he bought up complete
files of several newspapers, running
back in some eases to 1850. That he
finds the business profitable one may
be inferred from his ability to keep two
assistants at work.
The number of persons who wish to
buy back copies of the newspapers is
larger than most people might suppose.
In course of an half an hour, during
which | searched through an old file,
five persons came into Budd's place
and bought papers varying in age from
2 days to 6 years.-Neao Hdren Ne,CS.

A novel incident which occurred to a
stenographer of New York court the
other day will raise new point of law
for the Judges to decide. The steno-
grapher had taken the official notes of
a case tried in court, transcribed them,
and placed the transcript and the notes
in his overcoat pocket. That night he
went to the theatre. threw his overcoat
over the back of the seat, and the
notes and transcript fell on the floor
and were lost. There is, therefore, no
record of the testimony of the witnesses
from which to make up an appeal, un-
less the parties can agree to make it up
from memory. The case is unprece-
dented, and the unfortunate steno-
grapher is in trouble lest he can be
mulcted in the cost of Lew trial,
should one be deemed necessary.

The Mexican Conn D,Etat.

Mexico has repudiated its railroad
subsidies, and there IS clustering talk
on the part of the bendholders and rail-
road men of invoking the interference
Of the governments of France, Germany
aud the United States, to compel ian
honest observance Of the obligation. y
There are, however, two sides to this
question: The Mexican government was
for long time beset by set of lobby
lists. in the pay of shrewd and wealthy
'ncn who thought it much easier and
cheaper to bamboozle the Mexican gov
ernment into building the roads than to
build them themselves. These sehem-
ers did their work well and adroitly,
but the Mexican government now finds
Itself SO heavily obligated that it is liter
ally pauperized, and it seems the Mex
leans were either obliged to repudiate
the subsidies or turn over the entire
country in part payment. Canada is
in the same tix, a company of English
capitalists under the name of the Can
q "a Pacific railway, having manipulate
ell the Dominion parliament into giving
them an enormous territory of land and
more monetary aid than Canada will
able to pay in the next hundred years.
An instance of this same questionable
business is seen in our own state, at
Watertown. The early agents of the
railroad, by means best known to them
selves, secured the bonding of Water
town for more than the entire assessa-
bic property was worth. To pay the
bonds was impossible, and they were
repudiated, and for years Watertown
has had no city government, nor any
local government whatever. The Of
Ulcers elected each spring meet in some
seques.ered spot. secretly qualify and
transact such business as is necessary
and then resign, so that the bondhold-
ers can never find any authority upon
whom to serve process. There is a
terrible stigma attaching to the man or
corporation repudiating their lawfuHv
acquired indebtedness, but sometimes
there would seem to be almost a justi-
deaiion in reputation.
