In Mr.. Edison's own opinion the perfected phono-
graph Is going to have an important effect on the
progress OF Journalism, enabling correspondents
and reporters TO talk their copy into a machine,
instead OF painfully writing II, and enabling COM
positors TO grind it out afterward and set 1t In
type. as 1t were, from dictation. But why. since
the inventor Is suggesting possibilities still far In
the future, may not he go step further and rep
resent the coming newspaper as printed In sound
waves instead OF In types? Who knows but that
TIE STAR OF the twentieth century may not be
delivered 70 its readers daily In the form OF a
scroll. which, being slipped intoa photograph and
gradually unwound will reel on the news Of King
Albert Edwards health and the doings OF Congress,
the Anglo-Russian war, and the unbroken record
Of victories OF the Washington baseball nine, the
messages Of the prohibition President. and the
latest Congressional grants Of the parks OF WASH
fngton 70 the local steam railroads?

District Judge Speer has decided, In a case tried
before him In Georgia, that decoy letters sent
through the mails for the purpose Of catching dis
honest post-ofnce employees may not be admitted
In evidence against an offender, because the Law
has In contemplation only the theft Of bona fidt
mail matter passing between actual correspond
entA II this Is held TO be good law it will over
turn several decisions made In other courts In
times past Naturally, good deal OF q sensation
Is caused throughout the Post-Of1ice Department
by Judge Speers ruling as the decoy letter Is the
chief instrument In for the detection OF crime
II its employment were once definitely forbidden
the inspectors would be reduced to the necessity
Of proceeding wholly on suspicion, and the chances
for successful robbery would be increased q hun
dredfold.

Some comment Is caused by Mayor Hewitt's alb
sence from the reviewing stand during the Deco
ration Day parade In New York city. He says
that It was because he was not invited; but the
Grand Army men say that he was invited, and aD-
sented himself merely because he knew that he
had antagonized their order and did not care to
risk q public exhibition of their feeling against
him II ishard to believe this OF man usually so
courageous az Mr.. Hewitt Under any circum-
stances, the course taken BY the President Is the
wiser one He, too has been brought into antag-
onism with the q. A. r., but he wisely appears
before them on all necessary occasions, and Is
courteously treated. as bents his station and their
dignity.

HIS experience on recent short trips out of
Washington shows that the people respect Presi-
dent Cleyeland's horror OF demonstrations In
spector Byrnes was the only public functionary to
greet him the other evening when he arrived In New
forK, and there was no popular gathering Of any
sort. To large degree, doubtless, the comfort In
which he now travels Is due TO his having given
up the habit Of maintaining mystery suggesting
secrecy about his movements. These experiences

Holman, the wretch who conspired to murder
his halfsister for the sake Of getting her fortune
pleaded guilty after discovering that the statutes
OF Massachusetts, contain no provision for the pun
ishment Of his precise crime. There are certain
onenses which the ordinary legislative mind seems
unable To conceiye that human being can COM
nit HolmansB one OF these. But 1t Is TO be hoped
that, after their experience with this creature the
las-makers OF the Bay state VIII frame law that

something more serious than two years In the

Plucky Housewife.

KANSAS CRY, Mo, March IA burglar
suddenly appeared in the residence of MIR.
J. W. March, in this city, on Wednesday
evening, and tlourishing heavy club over
the head of Mrs. Marsh who was sitting
alone in the parlor, demanded sternly:
"Give me what money and jewelry you
have in the house. Give il to me quick,
and don't say word while you are about
it."
The robber carried a stout club and aC-
companied his demands with a blow on
Mrs Marsh's left arm. Mrs. Marsh spranG
to her feet and the man continued 10 strike
her on the head aud shoulders. He fol-
lowed her into the next room, still
striking hard blows. In the dining room
stood table on which lay Mr.. Marshs
revolver Mrs Marsh although bad
ly bruised and faint from her injuries,
managed 70 grab the weapon. Divin-
ing her purpose, the robber rushed for an
open window, through which he had en-
tered the house. Mrs. Marsh fired al him
as he turned, and emptied four chambers
of the revolver before he dropped to the
ground. He did not utter word while the
bullets were flying in his direction. but
Mrs. Marsh is positive that he carried one
or more away with him. When the fourth
shot had been fired, Mrs. Marsh, overcome
by the excitement and the effects of the Sc
we're beating she had received, fell fainting
TO the floor. 1t was in this condition her
husband discovered her when he reached
home a few minutes later. She WAS at once
cared for. Her LETT arm was nearly broken,
while her neck and shoulders were badly
swollen. She will recover.
