Hair Renewer.

Seldom does popular remedy win such .
strong hold upon the public confidence as has
Halls HAIR lsENEWER. The cases in which
1t has accomplished complete restoration OF
color to the hair, and vigorous health to the
scalp, are innumcrable.
Old people like it for its wonderful power to
restore to their whitening locks their original
color and beauty. Niddle-aged people like it
because it prevents them from getting bald,
keeps dandrutf away, and makes the hair
grow thick and strong. Young ladies like it
as a dressing because it gives the hair beau
tiful glossy lustre, and enables them to dress
1t in whatever form they wish. Thus it is the
favorite of all, End it has become so simply
because it djsappoints no one.

THE PoLlTENEss OF SOME PEOPLE.
A Very Broad Distinction Between Rea1

a Very Broad Distinction E:etveen Resi-
and Conventional Good Breeding.
Mrs John Sherwood, in her admirable
book on manners, draws very happily
the distinction between real and conven-
tional good breeding. That the distinc-
tion is a real one, unhappily, admits of
controversy. The politeness of some
people consists entirely Of taking off and
putting on again their hats In other
words they, are pleased to be courteous
simply as formal matter, and would
instantly resent any claim on their at
tention that involved the slightest sacri-
fee Of bodily ease or meutal self-com-
placency IN a society like ours, that
owes it's growth rather to accretions from
without than to its own natural dvelop-
ment, this curious anomaly of coarseness
and refinement is particularly apparent.
Why was it that at certain houses last
winter the hostess felt compelled not to
furnish any wiues for the mems dressing
room? Simply because many men were
so utterly devoid Of the commonest sense
of decorum that they could not be trusted
to behave themselves like gentlemen, if
temptation was placed in their way. And
yet no one Of these same young men
objectionable crime Of wearing a white
satin tie Or of omitting to even up their
social obligations by making their formal
calls week after They were all well
yersed iii the rules of conventional
etiquette, and as far as those rules could
guide them :theywere beyond reproach.
It was only on that higher GROUND, where
formal etiquette ends and where true
courtesy begins, that they could not be
trusted to stand alone. 0 zg 5
But it is not necessary to cite such
gross violations of good taste to establish
the point at issue Theman who accepts
an Invitation out and then proceeds TO
abuse the hospitality he is receiving, who
comments on the cider-like quality of the
champagne, calls the chicken-salad veal,
and unhesitatingly identifies the terrapin
with its distant relation, the splebian
turtle, can any one call him gentleman,
in spite of the polish Of his outward ap-
pearance and the correct cut of his
clothes? He is conyentionally well bred,
but that is all, and, moreover, he can
never be anything more.
The well worn quotation, "Poeta
nascitur non ft,nis as applicable to gen
tlemen in the generic sense as to poets.
There are few men who pride themselves
on their good breeding who would fail in
the ordinary civilities during an after
noon walk on the avenue, and yet they
would feel that they had been deprived Of
a rightful privilege if they were not ak
lowed to. obstrllct the lobbies Of public
places of amusement or tha yestibnles OF
churches for the purpose of staring mod
est women out Of countenance. 1t
reminds one Of the Italian banditti who
never fail to invoke the pious offices Of
the church before proceeding on their
cheerful errands of robbery or murder

The jury in the case of Frank Sherman
yesterday brought in a verdict acquitting
him of the charge OF embeZzlement.
Sherman was formerly postmaster at
Pacific Junction, and it was during his
administration that Postoilice Inspector
Bassett dropped in upon him, and as
Sherman did not have the necessary cash
balance in his pocket, it was construed
into case of embezzlemeut. The re.
guired money was at once secured, but

bondsmen, and IN some other respects,
perhaps, il was claimed that he had

Evans For MAYOR.

The city election Monday is to deter
mine whether the present mayor, Mr..
Evans, Is to be retained, and allowed to
continue the healthy and helpful policy
outlined by the lamcnted Mavor Chap
man, or whether the city desires to make
Il change, and 20 to experimenting. The
city affairs are so being managed that the
expenses have been brought down to
within the limits of reason and the i'm
pruvemcnts are not being stopped by any
means. The confidence of the people
has been greatly restored, and in every
department. the city government is more
nearly meeting the desires OF the better
classes of citizens than for years past
There Is no apparent reason for any
change, and surely nothing can
be said against Mayor Evans as
II man or an official, while
much credit is due to him. The
republicans should stand by him
nobly, and make his calling and
election sure. Mr.. Groncwrg, the d dcmo
cratic nominee, would make good
mayor, and if a change was needed he
would doubtless bring II about, but in the
democratic nominee no advantages are
presented over MIR. Evans, and no good
reasons appear for asking Mr.. Evans to
step aside, especially when he was crllri
TO the position by no wish of his own but
by the demand of the people through its
council, for some good citizen to step
into position which was by no means n
desirable one. Having yielded his per
| sonal preferences, and started in on the
| performance of the duties faithfully and
honestly, he should certainly be retained
| there for the remainder OF the term, ut

content with having Brownold arrested
for raping Mrs. Davcnberg, but is bent
on further war upon others The dis
closure of family life is disgusting in its
details, and in its general outlines shows
that there must be some terribly tail

ting to 90 together, but IN the case of
Mrs Comantz who was in Justice
Frainey's court yesterday, they seem to
be only expressive of the situation. She
lives ON Tenth avenue, between Sixth
and Seventh streets, and has n twO-ycar-
old girl, a mere babe, who is SAID to be
the victim of the mothers hot temper.
The neighbors claim that she has whipped
the child so numerically that they could
not stand idly by any longer, and so had
her arrested. 1t Is said that her tavOrite
rod was piece of barrel hoop, and that
she heat the child so severely with this
that it was inhuman, and the cries of the
little one not only went up to heaven
but greatly disturbed those on earth, The
woman was found guilty, of assaulting
the babe, and was fined 800 and costs,
The fine was rcmitted conditional upon
her restraining her wrath in the future
and no further abusing tho child.

There has been some little talk made
concerning the fact that Mayor Evans
did not preside over the dom?s of the
last Fourth when requested 50 to do by
tie knights of Labor, under whose aus
piccs the celebration was had. The Non
parcil made Il botched attempt to explain
the matter by saying that MIR. Evans was
not mayor ut that time. In this the old
lady is rs usual mistaken. Mr.. Evans
was mayor, but mad hardly got his chair
waIln, when a committee waited upon
him with this request. Mr. Evans had
already made arrangements to bc ont of
the city on that day, and under all the
circumstances did not see his way clear
to change his plans so as to accept the
protiercd honor. The matter is Il triling
one at best, as il would be foolish to
claim that by thus declining Mr.. Evans
intended to slur the workingmcn, or that
he declined because of any reason re-
ilccting upon the cause of honest toierS.
