Some time last year Mr.. A. S.
Abel, of the Baltimore Sun, bought
fine business property on f street,
near fourteenth, and began on it the
erection OF beautiful marble front
building. finer perhaps than any
thing Of the kind in the city. 1t
was given out that it was for the
Washington bureaus Of the Balti-
more Sun, and what space the paper
did not want would be let for Of
fees.
AS the building, however, began
to near completion, it looked like 81
remarkably well arranged place for
the publication of office and editor.
ial rooms of IL great newspaper.
That was just what it was meant
for although Mr. Abel managed 10
keep his design to himself longer
than common in such cases. His
intention is shortly to start first
class Democratic newspaper in
Washington. 1t is reported to be a
kind Of an adjunct to the Baltimore
Sun, but it is not authenticated
nor yet whether the enterprise is
that of Mr.. Abel individually or of
the Baltimore Sun, Mr.. Abel, who
is rated as two or three times mil
lionaire, is abundantly able to start
it on his own hook if lie wants to.
AS a man of affairs and successful
newspaper publisher, Mr. Abel pro-
badly knows that although the dis
lance between Washington and Bal
timore is not thirty-nine miles, they
are really as far as the antipodes
asunder-and there can be no pos
sible coalition between them.
1t has been seen for the last two
years that there was a great field
for Democratic newspaper here,
but Mr.. Abel being closer at hand
than the others has quietly put up
this building and will be issuing
his paper before anybody knows it.
The attitude of the New York press
has troubled the administration
considerably. The New York peo-
pie are continually reproached with
the fact that the administration
cannot command the support of a
single one of the established New
York dailies. The support Mr..
Cleveland gets from the Sun and
the World is of the kind calculated
to make him howl with rage and
pain-and the Star is not yet fully

Eight miles below Charlotte harbor is
a coast in which you can wade fearlessly
1900 feet from the shore. 1t is ON this
coast that men go fishing with axes. y
In certain seasons large fish, weighing
fifty pounds and upward, to escape from
the pursuing porpoises plunge into this
shallow water, in which men stand ak in
hand, and in which they are ruthlessly
murdered. From the hungry porpoise
they fly to evils they know not of, and
become a dainty morsel for remorseless

The Cameron VindicGtor, published at
Cameron, Mo-, addresses our boy as follows:
Sometime, my boy, you'll know why mother
weeps; why the weary eyelids cease to rest all
through the weary night; why day after day
her youthful looks are wanning and wrinkles
make deep furrows in her brow. Sometime
when life's lesson you are learning and when
your blind eyes are made to see the error of
your way, you'll catch glimpse of her wor-
ry. The world may not know that you, my
boy, are going astray-but mother does.
And it is this knowledge that is changing the
black hairs to white. She has counseied you,
boy, as no other has; she has been more kind
than any other will ever be. Regard her
teachings, change your erring way, throw of
the mantle that will soon wrap you in deg
relation. Stop your visit to the places OF
vice. This alone is why she sorrows; this is
why she weeps. Through the dim mist she
divines your future and the pathway is rug
oed. Sometime when you and stand at her
crave and drop the hot, aye burning, tears,
| Il will come to you-everything that caused
her heart to despair. There, it Is there, my
1boy, where all the wrongs are seen at the
grave. Change now; she is going fast and it
will not be long ere her trials will be DER.
Our boy-our Napoleon boy-should heed
this advice and change his downward course.
