Bayard's Diplomacy.

Secretary Bayard demanded the release
Of Cutting because the NJ exican minister
had informed him that the man had been
and that Mexico claimed the right to pun
fish offenses against her laws, committed
In American territory. The court so
altered the charge as to make it appear
that Cutting was tried for an offense in
Mexico, and il that is the csse there is no
conflict of authority between the govern
ments. This will doubtless be the claim
of the Mexican authorities, and to estab-
lish its truth or error, as well as to obtain
. reliable account of the proceedings, Gen.
eral Sedgwick has been sent to Mexico.
He has no diplomatic responsibility, but
his familiarity with international law will
enable him to report intelligently to the
state department, and the selection of
man of such high character for the mis-
sion will reflect credit upon the admins
tration.
The rabid partisan journals, who have
felt it their duty to find fault with any
and every act of Secretary Bayard, have
twisted their logic into pretty knot in
their efforts, first to convict him of weak
ness in his dealings with Mexico, and then
when they found his conduct had been
strong and manly, to bring upon him the
stigma of Jingoism. Finally, it was
learned that Sedgwick had been dis
patched to Mexico, and it was presumed at
once that he went as minister plenipoten.
tiary and envoy extraordinary, and, as
the sending Of any such emmissary would
have been a back-down after the peremp-
tory demand for Cuttings release, howl
was again raised over Bayard's weakness.
Even if this had been the case it would
not be display of weakness but strength,
for few men have the moral courage to ac-
knowledge that they have been mistaken.
But the facts are that the back-down has
been on the part of Mexico. For the
court has evidently changed the charge
against the prisoner SO as to dodge the
whole question at issue; and Bayard ha:
caught them dodging.

A New Danger For Actors.

Mr.. Henry Irving, the actor, had scarce
ly got his foot well planted on American
soil before Brooklyn journalist, Ii. Cover
Hose, brought suit against him for the re.
covery of manuscript of a historical
drama and the manuscript of farce, both
being valued at 81 800.
In his letter to the plaintiff Mr.. Irving
stated that he was in the habit of receiving
about thirty manuscript plays week. Un-
less he has an exceedingly careful secre-
tary, there is likelihood of some
OF these being mislaid or lost.
Where $50 manuscripts are received per
annum, the loss of dozen or more would
mot make much Of a break in the general
maas, but II Mr.. Irving is expected to paw
Tor the lost ones at the rate of $3.50 each. he

Female EmpIoyes

Mr.. Ii. p. Mitchell, one OF the bes t in formed
men on labor statistics in St Louis, has been
devoting considerable time tie last few weeks
to the question of female employment In
conversation with Republican reporter he
said: "The number OF women engaged in
other than household occupation In the
United States is probably much larger than
Ia generally supposed, and with its ever
growing proportions, both from natural in.
crease OF population and the continued crowd
ing of the great army still seeking employ
ment into new channels not before appropri.
ated by women, may well create a desire To
be better informed in regard to their mum.

this, and are preparing to max an exhaustive

Good Drinking Water.

The importance of good drinking water
on the general health of a community can
not be oyerestimated. Filtration is the
safest precaution, because the best sources
Of public and private supply are liable to
contamination. These safeguards are par
ticularly necessary in warm weather. Chas.
+. Wingate, the well known sanitary engi-
neer, writes as follows on this subject :
(" Few persons have any conception Of the
extent to which pollution in water exists.
1t may be said to be the rule, rather than
the exception, in all thickly populated
rural sections, and even in towns which
have public water supply. In Massachu-
setts alone, 1893, 200 cases of typhoid fever,
with 40, 900 deaths, have been traced to spe-
cific contamination of drinking water The
poison of typhoid has been carried twenty
five miles by river and communicated to
forty patients in one institution, through
drinking of the water. The marked
increase in renal diseases, which have
become almost epidemic, as it were, in all
sections of the country, among persons of
all conditions and of both sexes, is ascribed
by physicians Of experience, in a great
measure to the sediment contained in
drinking water, which the kidneys, the fil-
ters of the body, cannot eliminate from the
system. Hence the clogging and consequent
degeneration of those organs"
The effects of drinking impure water are
not sudden, but gradual. Hence the in.
creased need of guarding against them.

From the Plttsburg Dispatch.
Two old tramps, ragged and foot-sore,
walked slowly down the Fort Wayne rail
road track Saturday afternoon. Children who
saw them coming climbed quickly over the
fence and watched them pass with half
frightened eyes. Careful housewives noted
their presence with frowning eyes and kept
a close look out to see that they carried nothing
away with them that they did not bring.
Even the little dogs eyed them askance as
they growled viciously or saucily snarled and
showed their teeth. Down by Jacks Run
there was little white haired baby running
along the track. He was too young to fear
anyone, even tramp, and too happy picking
up little pebbles and laying them on the rail
to heed any danger. And right there, but
few rods away, was coming a train. The
tramps saw 1t rods away. One OF them also
saw the babe Dropping his dirty bundle,
he sprang forward. 1t was a race for
life. The tramp reached the child not
minute ahead of the engine Catching
the little one he pitched it OFT the
track, when II rolled down the bank, frig hit.
ened and dusty, but unhurt The tramp was
dead. Hardly bone in his body was left
unbroken. HIS body, mangled and torn,
was taken back to Allegheny. The other
tramp came back too. This Is the story he
told. The dead man, whose name was Au-
gust Gotlelb, and himself were Philadel-
phia dyers Both men had recently lost their
wives, and were left entirely alone. They
decided to go to Cincinnati and work at their
trade. They started with 80 cents, walking
the entire way to Pittsburg, completing the
journey in p days. When they arrived IN
Pittsburg they had cents. Alter walking
around town few hours they started for
Cincinnati over the Fort Wayne track, and
their journey ended as described. Henry
Behring, the dead mans companion, was
taken to a restaurant for supper, but could
not eat, his feelings overcoming him at the
tragic death OF his former cOmDanion. Ha
was provided with quarters at the Allegheny
lOck-up.

tendance my earnest wish that the occasion
may strengthen the friendship and kind re-
lstions of those who by participation In dan
ger became comrades, and that il may tend
to the preservation OF their common interests
The nations gratitude to the soldiers of its
wars should never waue or lsnguish, but its
manifestation should rest upon motives
worthy of the subject, and should he charac-
tarlzed by fairness and impartialty. 1 am
sure the Grand Army of the Republic asks
no more than this, aud while It may well re-
gard with watchful care the wants and the
rights OF its memters 1t will crown its mis-.
sion by demonstrating to the people OF the
land how completely the American soldier
with the cessation of conflict may merge in

rights OF citizenship, quickened by the risks
and danger of his country's defense, to fur
