much Indebted for its remarkable growtl, in circu-
lation to the persistent adherence on the part
Of the other Chicago daics to the blanket
sheet style Of journalism. OF all the people in
America the average Chicagoan is most in hurry
and least inclined to wade through columns OF
verbiage and stuff THE DAILY News is the only
Chicago daily that has the facilities for giving all
the news, and at the same time the good sense to
present it in concise FORM The result of such
condition of affairs is that THE DAILY News prints
more papers than all the other Chicago dailies
combined.
"In considering all the causes which have
entered into ard produced SO phenomenal jour-
nalistic growth the most important one unqucs-
tonably has been the controlling conviction Of its
managers that the "cheap paper" should beeheaP
only in price that its news should be as frcshand
complete, its editorial discussion as able am di1s
general tone and character as pure and heathFdf
as its best and highest priced contemporary. All
this the cheap paper" may easily be even at its
reduced price.
"The difference Of revenue between the two
cent paper (even more so when the price IS one
cent?, and the higher-prced blanlet-shest." the
latter throws Away in useless and SSasked for
size, that not only is Of no worth to the reader,
but is even an annoyance. in that it compels him
to CLEAN what is Of real news interest from mass
of verbiage and worthless implication.
at is because its managers have been wise
enough TO practically recognize these essential
elements of the best American journalism Of to-
day that The DAILY News is the best and most

Love by Candle Light.

The expense in light, fuel, &C.,
which courtship brings paterfamilias
is a never worn out joke with our
newspapers. Pobably these long
enduring fathers would welcome the
introduction of system of courtship
pursued by the Beers, thrifty race
of Holland descent in South Africa.
Here it is the practice for the young
man TO make known his intention to
the lady ofhis choice by calling, arm
ed with a long candle. If his suit is
agreeable to the lady and her family
the mother lights the candle brought,
sticks pin in it to indicate how
long time the young people are al
lowed to devote to wooing this time
and leaves them alone. When the
candle has burned down to the pin
she returns and the young man must
withdraw. The same candle is
brought out ut subsequent visits and
burned by installments, and when it
is entirely consumed, the girl is ex-
pected to have her trousseau in read
iness for the wedding.

Leap Year Law.

One minute, girls. You may have
an idea that this leap year business
is guy, and that you have no right
to "pop" the question to young

lament in the year 1888, and then
act accordingly:

THE MODEL. CHURCH.

Well. wife, I've found the model church,
/ worshipped there to day,
1t made me think of good old times.
Before my hair was gray.
The meeting house was fairer built
Than they were years ago,
But then found when | went in,
1t was not built for show.
The sexton did not set me down
Away back by the door;
BE saw that was old and deaf,
And knew that was poor;
He must have been Christian man,
He lead me boldly through
Tho long aisle of that crowded church
To find pleasant pew.
l wished you heard the singing, wife,
1t had the old time ring;
The preacher said. with trumpet voice
Let all the people sing
Old Coror alton was the tune,
The music upward rolled
Until thought heard the angel choir
Strike on their harps of gold.
My deafness seemed to melt away,
Ny spirit caught the FIRE,
jined my feeble trembling notes
With that mslodious choir
And sang as in my youthful days,
Let angels PROSTATE fall
Bring forth the royal diadem,
And crown Him Lord of all"
tell sou, wife, it did me good
To sing That song once more,
felt like some wrecked mariner
Who gets q glimpse of shore;
/ almost wanted to lay aside
This weather-beaten form,
And anchor safely in the port
Forever from the storm.
Twas not nowery sermon, wife,
But simple Gospel truth,
1t suited humble men like me,
1t fitted hopeful youth
To win immortal souls to Christ
The esrnest preacher tried,
He talked not of himself or creed,
But Jesus crucfed.
Dear wife, the toll will soon be DER,
The victory soon be woa,
The Singing band is just ahead,
Our race is nearly rum
We'er nearing Caasan's happy shore,
A land so bright and fair
Thank God, we'll never sin again,
There II be no sorrow there

Father Merriam took charge of

COURT CULLINGS.
Items of Interest Picked Up In and
Around the Temple of Justice.


Court Room No. is still crowded
with spectators to hear the testimony
in the Walker divorce case. The prin-
cipal witnesses in the case that testified
Yesterday afternoon were Ellen Miner
and the defendant himself. The girl
stoutly denied each and every act of
adultery that the petition alleged. Drs.
Slusser and Fraunfelter testified that
they had made a medical examination
of the girl and did not think that she
had ever had criminal intercourse with
any one. This throws considerable
doubt on the case as there is great
conflict of testimony. When asked by
the plaintiffs counsel if she would sub
init to another examination by Drs.
Phillips and Brant she said she
thought one examination was enough
and would not.
The defendant also denied each and
every act of adultery alleged in the
petition, and said the whole thing was
false and fabricated. The examination
and ross-examination of the defendant
occupied about four hours. When he
was through he stated to the court that
his wife and children had taken nearly
every thing from him that he had but
his boots and if they wanted those they
could have them. The testimony was
finished atnoOn and the case was argued
this afternoon.
Mary Moore, of Alliance, was granted
a divorce this morning by Judge Pease
from her husband, Charles Moore on
the ground of extreme cruelty and
gross neglect of duty.
There was an assignment of cases
today at o'clock.

Roy; l. fl. Taylor, Carrollton; A. 5. EN-
cry and William Edwards, Cleveland;
The International Trust Company, of
Boston, was elected to handle the bonds

cipal and interest payable in gold in
instead of currency.
An agreement with the projectors OF
the New York & Ohio railroad to run
their road from Greenville, Pa. to
Streetsboro, o., a distance of sixty
miles, to connect with the Cleveland u
Canton, was approved.
Mr.. Blood made an address, wherein
he stated that the road was increasing
in value, and saying that the proposed

probably be completed by August

Especial. THE members of the congre-
CATION Of the Holland Reformed church
have objected strenuously to a street
car company laying tracks past their
property, and some weeks ago secured
an injunction. This was dissolved a
few days ago, and the street car COM
pany put large gang Of men to work
and laid the track in one night. Thurs
day night the Hollanders held an in
diignation meeting, and at its
close they went out in a
body, put the railroad employees,
who were defending the property,
to flight by vOlley of stones and clubs
and tore up the track. The police were
summoned and the mob greeted them
with stones and then dispersed. Sew
eral were hurt but none seriously. Yes

under police protection. When the
last spike was driven dummy engine
started out to confirm possession and
this was the signal for another sOrtie.
The church bell again summoned the
indignant church members of the pop-
ulatiOn and when the dummy appeared
it was greeted with a heavy shower of
rocks and clubs. The officers made
flank movement and captured one
man and secured the names of several
others. The prisoner is deacon of the
church and is now i'll Jail. The rail.
road company has the court decision at
its back and is preparing to resort to
stern measures If necessary.
