Police Feared a Riot In the Vicinity Of
the Hoffman House.

Police Feared Riot In the Vicinity of
the Hoffman House.
NEW York, Nov. 3.-The scene about
the republican headquarters up to midnight
was most exciting. A police reserve of fifty
was kept busy clearing the crowds from the
vicinity. Capt. Reilly had fifty patrolmen
on Sixth avenue between Fourteenth and
Forty streets, and they had all they
could do to quiet disturbances and disperse
the crowds that gathered on every corner
cheering for their favorite party.
The Hoffman house barroom was closed
shortly after . o'clock, owing to the noisy
assemblage Of people that filled IL, and a
few minutes later the hotel itself was closed,
only guests of the house being admitted.
1t was impossible for the police TO quiet
the crowds and n riot was feared. Edward
Stokes, tie proprietor, then ordered the
place cleared Of everybody and the lights
we're put out and the doors closed.

want TO give you another question, and II Is
one OF those final campaign stories that you
must all be on the lookout for you must be
keenly on the lookout for from now until
Tuesday evening This last one is an accusa-
ton that the Republican party has added an
amendment 10 Cleveland's eXtraditiOn treaty
with England so that II will operate with great
severity upon lrishmen who come 10 this
country. The first thing would ask you, Mr.
Chairman, Is how did that extradition treaty
happen 10 como before the Senate OF the
United States. The republican senator's did
not have any power TO bring that extradltion
treaty there. It was made by Cevelands Sec
retary Of State, Mr.. Bayard IL was made by
and with the advice OF the President, and sent
10 the Senate. The Republican party is IN the
aiorlty In the Senate, and II they wanted TO
confirm 1t, why hasn't IL been done?
saw 10 my regret in an Irish paper the accusa-
tion made that that treaty has been in1uriously
amended by the republican committee and rc-
ported TO the Senate. I state positively, and
state OF my own knowledge, th1t there
Is not one particle OF foundation for
that allegation; not the slightest,
and that like the fisheries treaty which sur
rendered our rights in the fisheries, this cx-
tradition treaty Is supported In the Senate
by the democratic senator's and by them alone.
IA voice good, " and applausel. Now. az said
at the beginning IL Is too late In the campaign
10 dwell at length, or TO argue any question.
Argument has been going on for an entire year,
and the time has come for action.

FRENCH HOSTILITY.

Apart from the elections and the popular
attention necessarily evoked by the en-
peror's visits to Leipsic, Stuttgart, Munich
and other places, much interest is evinced
in present anti-German outpourings Of
the French press. While the people OF Ber-
lin treat these as perfectly comprehensible
outbursts Of French spleen, they do not for
a moment regard them seriously. Yet it
cannot be galnsaid that the newspaper
ptolemics overstep the verge of discretion,
more especially in view Of the strained
situation between the historic enemies.

Irving to Catch a Husband.

We must give all the nice modest girls we
know credit for not consciously endeavoring
to catch husbands. If men fall in love with
them and desire to marry them, and they are
the right sort of men, and the girls can love
in return, well and good-they marry and
hope to be happy ever after, but they will
not run after men, or think In everything
they do or say. Can l catch fish with this
baitY'
1t must, however, be confessed that there
are girls who, instead Of making themselves
useful and calmly resting in their maiden
dignity, think only of getting married. and
use questionable means to achieve their pur-
pose. Forgetting the Proverb, "The more
haste the less speed" this sort of girl not in
frequently assumes fast" style of talk,
manner and dress, in order to make herself
attractive to the opposite sex. In doing 80
she makes great mistake. Fish may nibble
at her bait, but they will not allow them
selves to be caught. A loud girl may attract
attention and have half an hour of popular
ity, but she is type of the short sightedness
of some of her sex. Men of the baser sort
NAV amuse themselves with her, but no man
worth having would think of marrying her.
There is liberty that makes US free and
liberty that makes US slaves, and the girls
who take liberties with modesty of speech
and manner, and who cross over the bound
airy into masculine territory, are not more
free, but more slavish than before. And the
appreciation of men, which is the end in view,
is lost by the means taken to gain it What
ever men may be themselves they like gen
tleness, modesty, and purity In act and
thought in women. They want their wives
to be better than themselves. They think
that women should be the oonservators of all
that is restrained, chivalrous and gentle

Subordinate Newspaper Workers.

We know by observation that the editor
in-chief Of several Of our great papers are
away months and months at time, leaving
to their subordinates, OF whom the general
public have never heard and never will hear,
the conduct of their great business. The
business goes on just as well when they are
away as when they are here Their business
or their presence makes no earthly percep-
tible difference.
This man drops out, the paper goes on.
This man dies, the paper goes on. This
man is confined to his house for weeks and
months, the paper goes on. This man slips
up in some line of work, the paper goes on.
And little by little the individual workers
come to regard themselves as of no special
account, and the moment man touches that
point, recognition of his own inconsequence,
he takes downward step.
Don't misunderstood me.
1t is well for man to watch himself care
fully, and not to overrate his ability. and it
is far from well for him to say to himself,
~ am of no earthly use. am but a
fill chink- am but a temporary ex-
pedient. My coming and my going are
of no consequence to anybody" because
that means he is of no consequence to HIM

The Matter of Punctuality.

This, by the way, is the century of societies
of all kinds Last spring one was established
for the purpose Of encouraging punctuality,
which took for its motto the famous saying
of Louis XIV: "Exsctitude is the politeness
of kings-and of simple mortals." The men,
bers not only pledge themselves to be exact
in keeping all appointments, but also to in
sist on forcing others to do so likewise. Ger

A Travelling ouack's Trick.

the sure way to be cured of anything what
ever was to buy bottle of his wonderful
panacea. The singer and the fiddler gathered

sibly part of the show. She played a diff

"You couldn't do 1t II l let you try" she
replied; more than hundred doctors have
failed, and guess I'll have to die cripple.
She permitted herself to be persuaded,
however, and at length was seated In a chair
In front Of the gorgeous wagon. The quack
set a screen around her for several minutes,
in the pretence that he was applying his mi
raculous lotion to her rheumatic leg. When
she was disclosed with flourish to the gaze
of the crowd again she stood upright, walked
about on her supposedly cured limbs, and We
hemently declared that miracle had been
wrought The sale Of the bottled liquid was
brisk for q while after that. I should not
have suspected the woman Of malingering,
for she did it cleverly, only that l had seen
her go through with precisely the same per-
