% years old aud very pretty, were walk

three shots at his wife, one shot taking
effect in her hip, the second in her arm
and the third in her hand. A crowd at
once started ~ pursuit of Wiggin' who
ran down an alley. As the crowd gained
upon him he appeared to become fright
ened, and after looking backward two or
three times, placed the muzzle of the PTS
tol to his temple. fired, and Tell deaa-
Mis-. Wiggin was taken to the city hos
pital, where she now lies in a critical con-

1.-THE education Of the women Of the upper
class is very different in method and result
from that of the wealthy sort in this coun-
try" writes Adam Badeau of the English
arlstocracy. "Engllsh girls OF rank are
never sent to school. All their instruction
is from governesses and masters, who at
tend them In their homes. As they spend
most Of the first part of their lives in the
country, in many instances not going to
town for years, II is impossible for them
all to enjoy extraordinary advantages.
There are not In the kingdom great masters
and superior instructors In sufficient num-
bcrs to supply one-tenth OF the families Of
the higher class. The governesses are by no
means highly accomplished persons, as a
rule, and the result is that the young ladies
are not, as a rule, highly educated. or
course there are exceptions, but for the
most part the women OF the aristocracy are
not so well educated or so accomplished
as those Of the upper middle class, or as
cultivated women In America. They sell
dom have fine literary taste, or even an
extensive acquaintance with English liter
ature. / have been told Of girls, afterward
married to dukes, who asked, who was
DesdemonaY when they saw o picture Of
Othello telling his immortal story. They
are seldom at all musical and rarely possess
high artistic talent Of any sort"

ONE Of the encouraging features OF the
political outlook is the decadence Of free
trade sentiment In the south coIucident
with the introduction OF manufactures, the
development of mineral wealth and the
construction Of new lines OF railway. A
majority Of the leading newspapers OF that
section are advocated Of a protective tariff.
One Of those-the Macon Tcicgdph--edi-
torially reproduces and commends that
part Of Mr.. Blaine's Sebago Lake speech,
in which he says 1.-THE people of the
United States enjoy to-day the largest
amount Of free trade for the largest area OF
territory that has ever been enjoyed by any
nation under the canopy Of heaven. Eng
land herself to-day does not enjoy free
trade over so large an area of country as
the United states, because the United
States, within her own limits of 3,50O,0O0
| square miles, as large as the entire CONT
nent Of Europe, has an absolute free trade
to degree that was never known in any
| government since government was known
among men. England has no free trade
with her colonies. They tax her products.
England cannot export an article to Can
/
house. But the articles that arc pro-
duced in the city Of Lewiston, the
cotton and woolens, the SHOES that
are produced in Auburn, are sold
throughout the length and breadth OF
the United States without being taxed at
any frontier, without custom houses with
out inspection fee even. Therefore, we
combine within ourselves, having protec.
tion against the rest Of the world, on the
largest area known iu the history OF the
world, the absolute benefit that can come
from free trade. Now, the only question
is, that having this large area, In which
cotton and ginghams, and all other pro
ducts, circulate freely, do you want to
open that to England's cotton? That is the
question: Few southern newspapers are
better known or more generally respected
than the Mobile Register, and that staunch
and able Democratic organ sums up the
tariff question in the following terse and
impressive style: at is very easy to talk
about 'robbing the people, aud an lin.
iquitous system hdt will our people bC
robbed when the south shall be dotted
With manufacturing establishments ant
the farmers shall find a home market fol
the products of honest toilg' II begins tC
look as II the great question Of southern
Democratic solldlty might eventually bC
solved by split on the great issue of pro
lection versus free trade.

Two YOUNG ladies and two young gentlemen
were boating on Lake Idlewild, near Boston
A youth in swimming became exhausted, and
his cries for help reached the boat. The gen.
tlemen were desirous of rowing TO the assist
ance Of the drowning youth but the young
ladies would not permit II. The thought of u
nude man was too awful And so the swim
mer was allowed to drown. Modesty Is one
thing, prudery is another Chicago Nail.
The sentiment which prevented an at
tempt to rescue this drowning youth does
not deserve to be dignl6ed by the compare
lively dignlaed name Of prudery. 1t was
mixture Of idiocy and brutal indifference.
The young gentlemen were even more cul-
pable than the foolish girls, for they should
have paid no heed to the protest OF the
latter. One Of the most heroic deeds re-
corded in recent years was that Of young
lady-a lady in the broadest, highest, and
best sense OF the worldwide went to the
rescue Of nude but drowning man, dived
TO the bottom, found him, and brought him
to the shore. Compared with these foolish
girls whose "modesty" cost life, that
young woman is as gold to pig iron.

ment" The Tribune asserts the well
known truth that It was the license allowed
TO just such paper, TO just such meetings,
and Just such utterances in Chicago that led
to the haymarket massacre, and concludes
that II these social incendlaries In New York
are tolerated much longer, II their rabld pa
pers are suffered to publish what they
please without any restriction, IL will only
be a question Of time how soon New York
will have its haymarket lesson TO learn, as
Chicago has had. We may add that Indiana
is scarcely doing her duty at this time, or
the Chicago anarchists would not be hold

Hanging VS.. Press Restriction.

Mr.. Curtis, in Harper's Wceklu dis
cusses the recent verdict against the Chi
cago anarchists very impresslvely. He
urges that sin a country which tolerates
the utmost liberty of speech and of the
press, which permits the publication of
Most's paper in New York, and other
anarchist papers In Chicago II is OF the
utmost vital Importance that the first at
tempt to reduce their teachings to practice
shall end In the most summary punishment,
The plea OF sincerity, even II 1t were proved,
does not and should not avail.u "The fate
OF the active apostles Of Rnarchy,n he adds,
twill be a warning more efTectual than re-
pressive laws against the press" The
Chicago Tribune thinks IL is not having
that effect In New York. "on the other
hand" the Tribune says, "the anarchist
press OF that city has been more ylrulent
and violent in its utterances siuce the YER
dict than 1t was before. The Freibeit
Herr Nests paper, is publishing letters of
the most incendiary description from the
convicted Chicago anarchists intended to
stir up the sayagery Of the outside mis-
crealts, and contain frequent appeals OF
an inflammatory description The letter
from Fischer is one OF this kind, and.
while its appearance will emphasize the
general satisfaction that is felt with the
verdict and lend additional confirmation
of its absolute justice, 1t is not the
kind Of publication which should be al.
lowed to pass unnoticed by the New York
authorities. Yet that paper every week is
allowed to publish articles Of the most in
ilarnmatory description. The anarchists of
that city are allowed to meet every week TO
denounce the law and the authorities aud

courts Of that city did well in suppresslng
