Her Mistress, Comfort.
Apparently, says the s.Topical Talkern OF
the Pittsburgh Dispatch, it is possible for =
servantgirl to be too careful and mindful OF
her employers comfort
The other day q lady Of the east end came
into town to parley with her dress-maker.
The latter was erecting for the east end
lady . sumptuous dress of white India silk
An evening dress of large value and
beauty, to be used, may add, to paralyze
theupper ten at Saratoga. 1t is my delects-
BILE privilege to know that the dress Is, in
masculine language, "a sumner
While she was busying herself at the
dress-maker's and gong through the
ecstatic agonies of having the dress tried
on, her maid in the east end mansion was
spending all her energies in praiseworthy
attempt to make her mistress room cool
and comfortable.
For, be 1t known, this east end matron
was heartily attached to the sanitary habit
Of taking An hour or two of sleep in the aft
ernoon.
Among the precautions that the maid
took to render the sleeping chamber worthy
Of its name was to expel all the flies. You
know how tiresome they are these warm
days when you are trying to steal into the
green garden of sleep To insure tho abb
sence of these tiny tormentors by the time
the lady of the house returned from town,
the maid spread large fly paper of the
stickiest kind on the bed. Then, having
closed the window-shutters and the door,
the maid retired to the kitchen.
Shortly afterward the lady arrived from
town, hot, dusty and eager for GOODNESS and
little nap. She had brought the precious
robe of delicate white India silk with her,
and although she was sleepy and fatigued,
as have said, she must needs have another
look at the dress before lying down.
She took the dress from its easement of
paper and box, and flung it open at length
upon the bed. Then she went to the win
dow and opened the shutters. The light
poured in upon the room, the bed and the
glossy silk dress She stood enrapturedi
Then she lifted the dress and was at first
astonished and then dismayed to discover
that adhering to the tournure was abroad,

The turbulent waves beat solemn

the summer air like chimes of silver

well the melancholy scene. Here be-

performed, and now with the dew
glistening upon its shapely form, dis
carded in this lonesome place it rests

sadness of departed glory has full
sway; the moon. now sinking in the

NEWS AND NEWS.

The sensational press is the result of a
misconception of what constitutes news
Charles Dudley Warner says it has grown
up by giving notoriety to mean persons
and mean events. That is perfect def
milton of sensational journalism. Take
one days news" in one of our local or
gans: A hysterical woman who pretends
to enter heaven In trance, an elope-
ment, an interrupted bigamy, an actual
bigamy, an adultery, another elopement,
an abduction and seduction case, a case
of marital inhdelity, and a dime novel
biography of a "bandit chief" all tricked
out in turgid and polysyllabic compost
tion and under hckerish lines of display
headings, take up seven-eighths of the
first page. If necessary to mention any
of it IS news" it all should have been
put in one-eighth of the space. But it is
elaborated, padded, bloated into undue
proportions, and told in a style intended
to attract by its suggestiveness. Of such
is sensational journalism wherever prac-
ticed. Its excuse is that it finds readers.
If the haunts of vice in its most hideous
form were compelled to plead they could
make the same excuse, that they have
patrons. But if the tastes of the COM
munity shall finally fall to the level of
those who demand feoulent sensational
ism in the press, its practices will soon
decline to the level of the patrons of vice.
The press has great power. But power
is retained only by using it wisely. When
a newspaper has the power to compel a
business man to patronize it, because if
refused it can attack and ruin his busi-
ness, and it uses that power, it distinctly
ranks itself with the thief, the burglar
and the pickpocket. These would not
steal the property of others if it We're
voluntarily surrendered on demand.
But its owners resist such a demand and
so the thieves steal. A business man in
this city recently had such an experience
with one of our sensational newspapers,
and he frankly says that next time de-
mand for patronage is made he will ac-
cede to it or quit business, for this ex-
perience cost him between three thous-
and and five thousand dollars to save his
business from ruin, in consequence of
sensational publications made about him
in the paper which had unsuccessfully
solicited HIS advertising patronage. If a
member of the Stock, Produce or Mer-
chants Exchange we're guilty of black
mailing like that, he would be expelled.
| Then why should it be tolerated in a
newspaper which must depend upon mer-
camille patronage for its support?

In another direction the habit of SELL
sationalism is working a debauchery in
journalism. The tendency is strong to-
ward treating every person and every
event in the corrupted style that is used
in giving notoriety to mean persons and
mean events. Depth and elevation are
banished, and the fashion is fiippancy
and the style superficial. Virtuous wom-
en- and modest, who become properly
the subjects of legitimate notice in the
press, by reason of participation in edu-
cational, religious or other movements,
are usually introduced to the reader by
some young squirt's comment upon their
abundance or their lack of animal
charms. His ideas of contour and COM
plexion are either fired or dissatisfied,
and his paper demands that the conclu-
sions of his lascivious physical survey
shall be set forth in a way to excite the
derision or set running the SLAYER of
rheumy rakes or ambitious young men
who earnestly aspire to be blackguards.
This downward tendency of sectionalism
levels all ranks of conduct to the plane
of the mean, to the ground floor of un-
governed passion, of lives that are void
of high motive, and where pure thoughts
are unthiDkable. 1t is useless to argue
that all this is necessary to warn people
of the consequences of vice. 1t allures
and is no warning. AS well might one
say that the hideous realisms of Zola
have q purer moral tendency than the
poems of Jean Ingelow or the novels of
Scott and Dickens.
The common sense of all thoughtful
people is in arms against the theory, and
the fears and solicitude of every parent
war against it.
But, as final argument, the protes-
ter is pointed to success. Sensational
journalism succeeds. Yes, sometimes it
does. 1t makes money, occasionally, but,
analyzed, its prosperity is based on black
mail. We affirm without fear of success
full contradiction, that there is not now,
and never has been in this country, a
sensational journal that was not a black
mailer. The two things 60 together al
ways and everywhere. Show US the
columns of a newspaper and We can tell
you the history of its counting room.
So, it is a question whether what is
called success in these instances, is what
should be called success. If a man to
morrow succeeds in robbing the Bank of
California, or the sub-treasury, getting
criminal possession of all the millions in
either place, is he excused from punish
ment, banqueted at the clubs and de-
clared by resolution in public meetings
as credit to the state? He has as much
right to be as sensational and blackmail-
ing journalism has to be called a success.
