A few minutes before noon yester-
day what narrowly missed being a
severe accident happened on Spring
street, near Second. For the past
few days workmen haze been engaged
in tearing down the old church and
market to make room for handsome
block. The back portion had been
leyeled and portion of the front was
pushed down. just before it fell, one
Of the contractors, Mr.. Benham, step
ped out to warn pedestrians, and
while he stood watching the front
crashed forward, and an iron bar flew
into the street, striking him on the leg
and foot. Fortunately, the limb was
not broken, but the foot was severely
bruised and one of the bones broken.
He was taken home, and DIR. Z. N.
Griffith called. He said that the
broken bone might take some weeks
to heal, but that otherwise the in
iuries were slight.

Il am q democrat, and have always

Drexler, president of the California Jute

''but this year propose to vote for Har-

shall also cast my ballot for republican

In reply to query as to Why he had
30 suddenly changed his mind after hav-
ing followed the democratic standard 90
long, Mr. Drexler said that it was be-
cause of the attitude of the present ad-
ministration en- the question of free
trade. "For instance" said he, ''the
Mills bill, which reflects the sentiment
Of the administration, proposes to re-
move the tariff from jute, raw and manu-
featured, which is 20 and 40 per cent

Why Girls Eat Candy.

@American girls eat more candy than
the girls of any other nation" said an
observing traveller recently. "They
commence on New Years day and con-
tinue until New Years eve. Always
candy, sometimes because it is birth
day, sometimes because they met a
friend, sometimes because it was sent to
them. They have as many excuses for
eating candy as man has for drinking
whisky"
"Don't foreign girls eat candy?"
ooh, yes; they are learning very fast
to follow the example of the fair sex on
this side of the water. In this country
the Yankee girls were the first to start
the fashion or habit, as it should be
called, and from the East it has spread
all over the country. Now I think the
Western girls can hold their own against
all corners. In Europe Germans,
Italians, and Spaniards are great eaters
of pralines, chocolates a Ia creme,
sugared almonds, and crystallized fruits.
French women eat fondants, and there
a man, when he escorts a lady. to the
theater, must carry with him packet
of douceurs. In England, candy eating
started with sucking caramels or nib
bling cremes. Now the well-to-do
Bfiton eats sweets with his wine after
dinner. They are fond of fondants,
nougat, candied mandarins or tanger-
ines and other kinds. Butter scotch,
barley sugar and chocolate are the ordi-
nary everyday candies. Soldiers suck
almond rock while doing sentry duty,
the policeman on his beat usually has q
bull's-eye or brandy ball in his mouth,
and the British tar chews an American
caramel instead of the quid of pigtail
that used to distend his swarthy cheek
in the good old days of England's
wooden walls. '"-NeU York Mail and

Marrying to Reform Him.

Rev. Sam Jones tells story Of some
young girls down in Georgian village
who married all the dissipated young
men, @just to reform them" The girls
are now, says Mr.. Jones, whippoorwill
widows, and their husbands fill drunk
ards graves. Marrying men to reform
them, says the Sun, has never been .
successful enterprise on the part of wo-
men. Girls are worth too much I'M
married to sacrifice their lives to beat
sense into the head of any man on Gods
footstool. Such man does not wean
IS easily as calf. He wi1l go home
only to sober up, and then not till the
other places are closed. A girl will
marry such man, hoping that the next
year he will be better; but the next
year he viii be worse. There are sober
boys enough for all the girls; and there
Is no need for marrying drunkard, and
the girl who does so viii deserve all the
unhappiness she marries..- Christian

IT is authoritatively stated that of the
10000 Italian immigrants thst were
landed on our shores during the past six
months, more than one half were sent
over by speculative padrones, in direct
violation of the law of congress which
prohibits the importation OF laborers
under contract. The padrones, residing
in Italy, make contracts with corpora
tons or others in this country to supply
them with cheap labor, and then herd as
many poor Italians on shipboard as q
vessel will held and ship them to this
country, receiving handsome commits
sion from the American contractors, and
at the same time taxing the immigrants
most heartlees manner. The pa
drones thus make "a good thing" out Of
the operation. The question is: Why
do the democratic federal oficeholders,
who have charge Of the custom houses
and the immigration depots at our Sea-
ports, permit this gross violation of q
law which it is their plain duty to en-
force? Are they subsidized, or what?
