SIGHTsEERs FROM PENNSYLVANIA

SIGHTSEERS FROM PENNSYLVANIA
Last Friday morning large party
of land prOspectors from Harrisburg,
Penn, and vicinity, arrived in Abilene.
From Mr. D. S. Wagaman, MEM
Der of the party, we learned that 1875
prOspectOrs left Franklin and adjOin-
ing counties for the West. \ small
number went to Chicago. The great
bulk of the party came further west,
dividing at Kansas City. About so of
them arrived in Abilene last Friday,
and will make this city headquarters
for a general run over the central part
of the State. Mr.. Wagaman is from
Franklin county, and says that the
party he is with represents large
amount of money. He says that wheat
in Franklin and adjoining counties in
Pennsylvania, is better than any where
between them and Kansas. He thinks
we have beautiful country, and that
our wheat looks better than any he has
seen since leaving home. Mr.. Wagaman
will travel over several counties west
and south of us. The members of the
party have round trip tickets and will
return home at the end of three or four
weeks.

Actresses and Their Art.
From the heynote

Actresses, like all other women, have to
obey certain laws of social life. II girls come
up from the country, go into lodgings alone,
and live without personal guardianship or
social protection of any kind, they may be
Unas and VirgInias to the back bone, but they
Will have to pass through mud heaps by the
way, and their experience viii be more or
less abominable. Also they viii be roughly
handled by the censOriOus and loosely re
garded by the vicious. The fact of being on
the stage does not emaucipate a modest girl
from the conditions held necessary for her
social preservation elsewhere. And to hold
that one daughter may not go TO ball at a
private house without a chaperon, and an
stage without protection. ami travel about IN
mixed company without the flim3iest pretens'
OF II caretaker, IS stupidity scarcely worth
the trouble of discussing.
Girls have to be protected against then
own ignorance, their own innocence, their
very selves, until they have learned something
of life and It's dangers, and to know the look
of birdhme and how to avoid springs and
snares. 1t may not be possible to cucumber
the side scenes with mothers and yet We
know of instances where this is done, and
where girls never set their pretty feet inside
the theatre unaceOmpanied and unprotected
This is the main reason why, in a family Oi
actors and actresses bred to the board from
their birth, the women can be, and are, as
blameless as a nest full of doves. Fa her an6
mother and brothers are all there to watch
10 guard, to check, to prOtect-if need be, tC
aveuge. They them elves. these doves il
tights and spangles, know all the nets spreaC
by outsiders, and the pitfalls dug behind thC
scenes, and they escape where others are
caught and fall in.

The New York H8rdl1 and other papers
have made violent attack on Hon.
Zlchariah Montgomery, who has been
appointed Assistant Attorney General for
tle Interior Department Mr.. Mont
gomery is a member Of tac California bar,
and was recommended by very strong
California delegation. lie is not hand
some man, but there doesn't appear to be
any doubt that he is man of more than
ordinary ability.
The.objoctions that have Deen made to
him are that he was secessionist and
that be is violently opposed to the public
school system. Neither Of these objec-
tjons Is important 50 far as Dir. Mont
gomery's duties as Assistant Attorney
General are concerned.
1t is true that he is opposed to the public
school system. He has written several
pamphlets on that subject, two Of which
are in the Congressional Library.
Mr. Montgomery's duties will require
him to devote his whole time to land cases,
and nobody pretends that he is not capa-
bic Of attending to such cases. That he
is a man Of pure character is admitted,
ana that he will fiji the high Office to which
he has been appointed acceptably and
satisfactorily is generally believed. Why
then should his commission be recalled
because he does not believe in the public
school system? II the Office which ne fills
had any connection with the public school
system there would be some reason for
oDiecting to him.
The HerGtd, however, is so bitterly OPP
posed to Mr.. Montgomery that it loses its
temper. and makes a foolish attack on
Mr.. Garland, the Attorney General, for
recommending his appointment. The
HeraM says: "If Attorney General Gar
land cannot be happy without having his
secessiouist and anti-public schools
friend as AN assistant, why would it not
he as well for the President to dismiss Mr..
Garland and give him and Montgomery
chance 10 90 of together somewhere? In
our judgment it would be easy TO get a
much ADLER and less laundering Attorney
General than Mr.. Garland has proved him.
self.0
In what respect has Mr.. Garland blum
dered? He may not have done exactly
what the Herald wanted him to do in all
cases, but in refusing to be dictated
to by that journal it doesn't follow
that he has Numbered. The Herdld'S
attack on the Attorney General will not
hurt that official in the estimation OF the
public.
Its opinions Of public men ceased long
ago to have much weight, because they
are the result of passion, prejudice or
self-interest rather than a desire to be

One More Sad Dog.


A good story is told of dog whose depraved
instincts hadled him into ruf6an society, and
to his becoming a working partner IN a
smashing" bu mess. 1t was his part to carry
the counterfeit coin. In putting OFF bad
money for genuine, the chances OF escape,
should the utterer he detected in the attempt
are much enhanced If, in the event of a police
man being called in. no other bad money is
found on him. For this the mongrei in ques-
ton provided. The ''sOurs." as pc wter pieces
are called in London. were contained in an
'oblong iron tobacco box, which the dog is
taught to hold tight in his mouth. and when
the smasher had disposed of the
solitary false coin in his posses ion it
was easy for him to get another. But in this
instance the villainy of both cur and master
was brought TO light and properly punished.
The man, with the dog at his heels. went into
a butchers shop in London. designing to eX-
change bad half crown for goo two shill-
ings and half pound Of steak. The butchers
dog, half-bred mastiff, happened to come in
at the same moment. but whether IL was his
keen instinct that led him to discover that the
other was up TO no good, or whether he was
merely pugnacOus and ever ripe for a
fight, as are most butchers dogs, is
not known. Anyhow. the butchers
honest dog made such fierce and sudden at
tack on the counterfeit carrier that, IN a
spasm OF fright, the tobacco box was jerked
out of the mouth Of the after, aud the spuri-
Gus pieces sent spinning over the floor. The
consequence was that the smasher, who in
his rash fury betrayet his ownership By sav-
agely kicking nc the butchers dog. was ar
rested and condemned to ten years penal
servltude. As for The Diners cur. it was So
badly injured by the masti1's teeth that the
policeman felt justified in dispatching 10 on
