There is more romance" than
practical good sense in the marriage of
any American girl of scarcely seven
teen," although she wed a millionaire
with her parents consent. 1t is robbing
a girl of her birthright to deprive her Of
of all chance to know what young lady

The popular old ballad of 'Billee
Taylor is said to have been written in
honor of one Hannah Smell, who lived IN
the last century. She pursued her lover,
not to kill him, but to tie him firmly to
her apron string. She married Jim
Lums at Wrapping. Lums was a Dutch
sailor, who squandered her money and
then ran off and left her. She donned
mans clothing and pursued, enlisting
as a marine and doing valiant service in
Admiral Boscowen's fleet. Learning
that her husband had been executed for
murder, she returned to Mapping and
long kept a public house there Chicago

The term dude has grown to be a
shocking misnomer in the interior coun-
ties of Kentucky. If a young man
blacks his shoes in McCracken County,
he is called a dude, and if he wears a
white shirt, he is a terrible dude. If he
should bang his hair they'd kill him.

How is it with the Photographic ca
mera and lens, our artificial eyeP We
will suppose that everything is in readi-
ness, that its retina or sensitive plate is
in perfect condition, and that not a ray of
light has yet entered within the darken-
ed chamber. Instead of''being the twink
ling of an eye," we shall arrange SO
that the time elapsing between the open
ing and closing of the artificial eyelid
shall be less than one-tenth Of a second.
or far less than the time necessary for
our eyes to open and shut. 1t shall be
as nearly instantaneous" as possible.
Everything is ready. C9iok!! It has
open and shut. What has it seen in that
little instant of time?
If anything is in motion. it has been
perceived in that fragment of a second
as if motionless. Men walking along
the street are pictured with uplifted feet.
A trotting horse may be caught with all
of its four legs in the air, viewed just at
the moment when he was clear Of the
ground. A man leaping with a high
pole may be pictured in mid air, pre-
oisely in the position In which he ap-
pears at the highest altitude. Motion
seems rest.
But this is pot the most wonderful OF
its powers. Far beyond the keenest OF
human vision is its range Of sight Il
the light is good, this sensitive plate OF
glass will have recorded and discerned
a thousand uplifted faces as perfectly as
the human eye p~erceives the features Of
a single countenance. Every express
sion of joy or sorrow, every peculiarly
of dress OF attitude, the leaves of a for.
est or the grass by the wayside. will
have been seen and delineated and re-
tanned perfectly in far less than the
briefest possible twinkling of a human
eye.-Dr. alfred LefngweH, in P0pula'

The only excuse for lynehing a
criminal is the Laws uncertainty.
Recent discussions in the public
prints have pointed ont the absurdi-
itY OF the means Of delay and evasion
which lawyers have at their disposal.
The courts ara always willing, one
would be led to think, to grant dila-
tory motions. Cases are postponed,
and retiFed and appealed so often
aud so easily that . iitigant never
can be sure when he is finally out of
the confusion In criminal cases
the opportunities for delay are used

often freed by technicalities and par

The match game of base ball,
played here on the 4th between a
home nine and q like number from
Glasgow, was rather oue-sided, but
a spirited game nevertheless. The
plucky little fellows from the village
by the Big Muddy did all they could
to stem the tide, but in vain; they
were outplayed at every point. Our
willow wielders pounded the pitcher
most numerically, while the catcher,
on account of sore hand, was nn-
able to hold the ball. Redding's .
rifle shots proved too much for the
visitors, and in batting they gener-
ally either sawed the air or went to
first on wild balls. A few wild, not
to say foolish, throws gave the visi-
tors more runs than anything else.
We never saw a more polite, WELL
behaved set of gentlemen than the
Glasgow nine and we hope they may
have better luck the next time they
visit us. The score stood II to 27
in favor of Salisbury.
One of the largest and best pro-

ameter.

If the criminal has any money or po-
| sition,he endeavors to attack hel
character. These trials generally
prove y trying ordeal to the woman
who has already perhaps suffered
the worst which can can befall her,
Men have not much confidence In
the administration of criminal Law
and less in the law itself. The cir.
cumstances above alluded to have
been observed and commented .apou
so often that when a crime of that
class is committed and the psrpetra-
tor is promptly hung by an indignant
populace, few men can be found who
viii condemn very harshley the self
constituted indicators of common
decency.
Yet Notwithstanding all that can
be said, the lynching process is not
the right way toward reform. Ex-
eept where society is utterly unable
to defend its rights, the law is the
only agency which should be lnvok-
ed in Furnishing accused persons.
The reform should hew at the roots.
Public opinion should demand
changes IN the laws which viii adapt
them to speedy and effectual dealing
with such cases. And still more inn
peratively should the free and easy
way in which lawyers and courts tri-
fie with important matters be rebuk-
ed. Courts should have strict rules
and. they should be observed with
infexible strictness. A lawyer is
not better person than others and
he is not entitled, because he is an
officer of the court, to delay cases,
to insult witnesses and to throw into
confusion the conduct of justic. by
his ignorance or his laziness or to
suit his selfish purposes. Our laws
and our lawyers need to be hedged
about more closely with the public
good and common sense.
Kansas has been the scene of two
sensational lyuchings lately. In both
cases the scoundrels who were pun
ished deserved the severest possible
retribution, but the use of unlawful
means does not rebound to the credit
of the state. Lynching two crimi-
nails while ten times as many have
probably escaped punishment be-
cause of bad laws and imperfect ad-
ministration, does not inspire fear
and works but little good. Get the
laws and the courts straight. That
is civilization and reform.--KaRsas
City Times.
