A SENSIBLE a. y.

Rev. Father Mesa delivered a sermon
in San Francisco on Sunday, in which he
emphatically set forth the necessity OF
training children to labor. This, the
speaker maintained, they should be made
accustomed to from the very beginning,
for should a case of necessity afterward
arise and they be compelled to earn their
own living, work would not be looked
upon as ~repugnant or impracticable. but
On the contrary it would be accepted as
a natural consequence of existence. We
see numbers of young men who are con.
t~inually out of employment, and yet dis
dam to take up a pick or shovel, al
though their fathers are laborers. They
seem to think themselves better than the
parents who brought them into exist
ence. and sacrificed years of strength in
rearing them to mans estate. To excuse
their conduct these Young people say
that their lives were spent at school, and
that as a result, they are totally unused
to work. The primary cause of the
widespread evil of Incidence, that
throngs our penitentiaries. very evi.
IDENTIFY, rests with the parents, who gave
to their children an education in which
labor was entirely neglected and ignored.
With girls, the case is even more sad.
Through affection to idleness, the daugh-
tiers of the poor often drift into paths of
shame and become outcasts of society.
The good health resulting from physical
exercise should alone serve as an induce
ment to regularly pursue the same. In.
activity prevents the development of
both mind and body, and causes prema-
ture decay.

WEDNESDAY JULY IA, 1886.
GLADSTONE AT HIS BEST.

In Americl we call a man old at go,
and are apt to be impatient under the
advice or leadership of those who have
passed the full meridian OF vigorous
youth. The thought of Gladstone, at
the age of II. marshalling the advocates
of liberty and Irish Home Rule in Great
Britain, is both a reproach and a lesson
to us. No man is old who still retains,
unimpaired, every mental faculty; whose
heart W quickly to every call for
sympathy and beats responsive to every
sentiment of truth and justice, and
whose feeling flows yet with a full cur.
rent. Gladstone is not old so far as real
force and vigor are concerned. He is
simply ripe. The suns Of seventy.seven
years have perfected and developed and
matured his strength. They have kept
his blood warm so that it pulses through
every vein and artery q vital tide, as suf-
icient now to supply mental and physi.
cal nourishment as in his youth. His
career is an inspiration to every ambi-
tious youth, an encouragement and
promise to the middle-aged. What keeps
him young in powers and strong in in
fuence? He joins to remarkable physi.
cal vitality an immense moral force. His
political creed is based on earnest, sin.
cere convictions, and his courage and
determination are as remarkable as they
are unusual. In addition, he is most en-
thusiastic and sympathetic. He both
convinces and attracts. His logic is
penetrated by a sweet, kindly and win.
ming quality that appeals as irresistibly
to the heart as to the judgment.

Louisville says that Mr.. King, upon pay
ing a social visit to Greenwood, a con-
siderable mining village in Pulaski
county. on the line of the same railroad,
turned himself into a human hornet and
proceeded to clean out the whole town
with a pistol and bowie knife. after
which he took and held possession of a
railroad train and obliged it to transport
him back to Pine Knot, where he cele.
brated his return home by killing the
conductor. At the last accounts the
remaining people of both counties whom
he had not disabled were hunting for
him with shotguns.

THE SENATE ANDTHE varOxs.


The Senate is not wise in attacking
the President on account Of his vetoes.
It is true that the amount of money
saved by these is small, but Mr.. Cleve'
lands action upon them shows the right
spirit, a resolve to prevent, as far as he
can. extravagant legislation; and many
of these private pension bills are an un'
necessary and uncalled for expense. and
the aggregate of unjustifiable pension
bills is large.
Says the New York Sun: "Mr. Cleve.
lands course has here been in the true
line of Democratic profession, whatever
may have been his divagations in point
of theory. His vetoes of the pension
bills are not only popular in themselves,
but they will be thought to indicate a
resolve to veto e~xtravagant big bills,
since he is SO careful about small ones.
The Republican Senators seem still to
labor under the delusion that they can
dig some campaign material ont of his
action. as if the country could be per.
suaded that every man who applies to
Congress for a pension ought to get it if
Congress, without any adequate knowl-
edge or examination of the facts. is
pleased to grant him one. The Repub-
lican Senators will probably find out that
the American people want common sense
applied to the granting of pensions as
well as to other matters"

A Terrible Act anal Suicide.

PIrTsBURaH. July 13.-Some time ago
the wife Of John NJ. Duvall, living in the
suburban town of Mt. Washington. OBJ
taincd a divorce. and on the same day she
married Jacob H. Jones. Duvall made no
objection to the marriage. This evening
Duvall went to Jones. and decoyed him on
the pretence of q friendly visit to his
house, which stands near the brow of the
hill, into q stroll about the premises.
Duvall led Jones back OF an old barn.
which stands near by, and when safe from
observation and beyond the vision OF any
one, seized a can of %vitriol, which he had
concealed there for the purpose. and threw
the liquid in the face of his victim. who,
totally disarmed by the apparent friend
ship of Duvall, went unprepared for such a
murderous onslaught. Jones fell to the
ground writhing 10 agony, while his assail-
ant stood by and gloated over his terrible
work. After watching the sufferings of
Jones until satisfied, Duvsll went to the
edge Of a cliff, where there ia a steep de-
scent Of 800 feet. and shooting himself
through the head fell %headlong to the bot
tom. He was picked up and carried to a
house near by. where he is still lying in
sensible, with no hope OF recovery Jones
ia in q very serious condition. and il he re-
covers he will be badly ~disfgured and to-

WASHINGTON, July 13.-The President
has pardoned r. Porter Lee, now confined
in the Buffalo ~Ponitentiary, for embezzle-
lnent. Following is the Presidents mes.
suge in regard to the case:
This convict WAS sentenced In Novem-
Der, 1882, at Syracuse. N. Y. to be CON
fined in the p~enitentiary at Buffalo for q
term Of 10 years, upon conviction for en-
bezzling the funds of the First National
Bank at Buffalo while he WAS President
thereof. While this is q statutory office
and somewhat technical in its character,
the public are 80 much interested In the
security OF our banking institutions, and
such strict faith and care should be de-
manded of those having them in charge
that I am much disinclined to extend
clemency to those found guilty OF of1enses
like thai of which thisp prisoner was con-
victed. | am entirely familiar with his
case, and have known the prisoner q long
time before his conviction. His sentence was
generally regarded at the time it was pro-
nounced as very severe, il being the full
extent OF the law. with the Communication
allowed in the State Of New York for good
conduct in prison. He has served his
sentence Of five years, and it is entirely
Ger tain in my mind if good Is ever

1t has already been accomplished. AT the
| time of his conviction his wife, a noble,
| courageous and devoted woman, and five
| small children were sad sufferers for bis
crime. and deserved the sympathy Of the
| entire community by her patient hard
labor to support her children, and the
never-failing trust and hope in the darkest
