l A defect in the screen law" of Massa- chusetts, which law requires that all places where liquor is sold shall be exposed to view, has been shown by an opinion delivered ill the Supreme court of that State. A liquor dealer iu Watertown was licensed by the Selectmen to sell liquor in two rooms, a front room and a rear room on the ground floor. A large window gave full view of the front room from the street, but a partition shut off the view of the rear room. Judge
 Holmes in his opinion holds that the statute
 leaves the practical enforcement of the law
 wholly to the choice of the local licensing
 boards, because it does not require that all
 saloons shall be in front rooms or on the
 ground floor. Licenses may be granted to
 sell liquors in rear rooms into which no view
 can be had from the street, or rooms on other than ground floors.
 The sadaest phase of labor strike in a
 great city is the suffering it brings. The
 condition of the New York tenement house cigarmakers, about three thousand of whom have been made idle by the recent lockout, is described deplorable. Says the New York Star: In many of these wretched homes, whose tenants at best are poorly lodged and fed the outlook is that of absolute starvation unless relief is afforded speedily. Their wages are so small that even ill the busiest l seasons the tenement workers are unable to
 save They are now without either money or food and in many cases are threatened | with eviction for non-payulent of rent. Till | now the International union has helped some of the most urgent cases, but the union has
 now enough to do to keep it's own members
 in food and clothing. The drain on their
 surplus fund has been a heavy one-$1O, ,OOO I per week-and unless the strike IS ended shortly even the union men will suffer many l hardships.

A strong decree has been recently promul- gated in Austria to the eff ct that no married Austrian subject shall henceforth receive a passport for journeying beyond the frontier without the express consent of his wife. This has naturally created a commotion among portions of the community and a question was asked in the Landtag of lower Austria as to the motive for such measure, which thus far the government has left swered.
 An anti-treating bill has passed one branch of the Washington Territory legisla- ture. It prohibits any person from treating or entertaining ''gratuitously any other per son or persons to or with spirituous or malt liquors, wine or cider, or any other beverage whatever, in any public barroom, saloon, beer hall or grocery in this territory, or in any other public place of resort or amuse- ment." The penalty is fine of not less than $5 nor more than $25, or imprisonment not less than five nor more than twenty days, or both.

A Cure for the FeIOn.

That woolen smoke is a sure cure for
a felon is certainly one of the medical
discoveries of the age. Could we give
the name of the correspondent who
sends us the following, it would be at
once recognized as OF authority sutfic-
lent to guarantee truthfulness OF any
assertion to which it might be appen-
ded:
IF you ever endure FIRE the agony of a
felon you will appreciate the fact that it
can be cured by woolen smoke. Place
the woolen rags under an inverted flow
er pot and put Goals upon them, or set
them on the fire in some other way !;
then hold the feloD over the smoke,
and it will extract all the pain. This
has been done by a friend of mine with
in week assure you that in my
circle we consider it as great discov-
cry as that ether will temporarily dead
en- pain. The only remedy for feIon
that ever considered infallible, and
have had cogniZance of several aggra-
waited cases, was having the part laid
open (under the influence of ether) and
the bone thoroughly scraped. That
reaches the root OF the difficulty; but
the smoke cure is far better."-Ex-

Why He Hated Women.

King Ludwig of Bavaria, who recent
3ly drowned himself, was said to have
been remarkably hansonle man in bis
youth. The following shows why he
hated women:
The alliance between Bavaria and
Austria in 1860 was made independently
of King Ludwig. He was then i'm love-
once aud for a wonder The object of
love was a sister of the Emperor of
Austria, the Duchesse d'Alencon, daught-
er-ln-law of the Due de Nemours. He
and she were betrothed in that year.
but the engagement was broken off,
owing to the King having seen the
princess, whom he had gone to see dis
gnlsed as an itinerant musician belong
Ing. to band, sitting on the knee OF Il
stableman and stroking him on the
bead. Ludwig got into state of jeal-
GUS frenzy, broke off the engagement,
plunged into the depths of despair, be-
came more alienated from the human
race than ever, and a mysOgynist. His
hatred of women was so utter that his
own mother, who had been the one
sweetening influence of his childhood,
was no exception. He later was brought
round little by the Empress of Austria,
who strove to drag him from his retire
tneut after his cousin, Prince Leopold
of Bavaria. married her daughter
Gisela. The King allowed this Prin-
cess TO see him in the midst of his
artistic creations. But iatterly he
showed an aversion for her and said
she was no better than the rest of her
sex. 1t is believed by mauy that it was
All agent of Prussia who gothic groom
TO make love to the Duchesse Sophie
and the King TO go in incognito to play
before her when She and the stabIeman
were sure to be III loving conversation.
Americans will think it strange that a
Princess, Que of whose sisters is kais-
eris wife, aud another reigned at Naples,
should permit the famliarties of
young fellow belonging to the news OF
her father. But all the six daughters
nf blntf Duke Max of Deux Points, in
bavaria, were reared in the most un-
conventional way, and passed much
more time, when girls, i'll the stables
than in the schoolronm. The Empress
nf Austria speaks Tattersall English
and no other, because, us she told Lady
Bloomfield, she learned most of her
English from IA groom. She despises
society at Vienna because Jews are
edging their way into it, and yet her
dearest and most intimate friend is
Eliza, the circus rider.
After the romantic King discovered
that his Queen of Hearts was fooling
him, and loved the groom fondly if not |
wisely, he became satellite of Prince
Bismarck and cast aside his aversion
for politics to force Bavaria ont of the |
Austrian orbit and to bring it into that |
of Prussia.

Levee Building.
Shreveport Times.

We hold firmly to the doctrine that
the people of the State of Louisiana
should be taxed to build levees along
the Mississippi and Red rivers. We
have never been able to understand
Z why it is that if Pointe Coupee should
he taxed to educate the children of
Vernon. the same logic should not hold
when Vernon is to be taxed to build
the ievees of Pointe Coupee. Yet it is
a fact that there are men i'm Louisiana
who are SO narrow minded that they
oppose all taxation for leyee purposes
on the ground that levee building is the
dDty of the locality to be benefited and
not OF the State. In the same way ed
ucation might be said to be purely To-
cal matter. Vernon providing for her
own children and Pointe Coupee for
hers.
With regard to the duty of the State
to build levees there can be no question.
But with regard to the way in which
the State lets out the contracts for levee
building, there is decided difference of
opinion. We do not believe that the
practice now in vogue of ignoring the
lowest bidder, whether he be RESPONSE
bic or irresponsible, can lead to any
thing but corruption. Ii an irresponsi-
hie bidder fulfills all the conditions
imposed, he must be given the contract,
and the State must protect her own in
terests through the bond given. 1t the
bidder fails, the contract should be re-
advertised. Under no circumstances
should "A higher bidder be selected. 1t
smacks of jobbery and does not look
fair and square.
The letting of the Morganza levee is
a case in point. Ii O'Malley was ire
sponsible, the contract should have
been readvertised By no logic under
the sun can the giving of the contract
to the penitentiary jobbers be justified.
