The Consequences"

-
They were playing an insidlous
game, invented by the devil or some-
Of his followers, called Consequences
P~resuming that our readers know how
the thing is done, we shall only detail
what Happened.
Joe Smith and Missouri Brown had
been sweethearts for some time, though
she never would say yes when he asked
her to marry him. In fact she tiirted
with some of the other fellows IL 4
manner highly d~emoralizing TO Joe.
He, poor fellow. had stood it for some
time, and had come TO the conclusion
to bring things to a focus, 80 to speak,
and had spoken to his friend; Tom
Brown. It cousin Of Missouri's. on the
subject. The result was that on this
particular evening Tom PROPOSED the
tiendish. game above alluded To.
The slips of paper were prepared
passed around, written on, opened and
read. The first one was something
after this order
Joe Smith and Lizzie Simpson met
in a corntield-they were playing the
piano-he said. My darling. / love
you-she said, I'm hungry-I'he con
sequences were that they fell into the
gutter And the people said, 1T We're
better TO laugh than Jo be signing"
This was deemed such a success that
the paper was passed round again.
But wicked Tom. Brown, with an eye
to Joe's ease, fixed things and when
the paper was ready t o be read he
slyly substituted one he had prepared
beforehand. 1t was based on q scene
that occurred between Joe and Mis-
souri, only Il few nights before, and I'M
known to any hnt herselfand her lover
and she wasn't afraid he'd give it
away.
Here is what the substituted paper
contained:
"Joseph Smith and Missouri Brown

braced. He said, My darling, | must
kiss you She said, ooh. Joe, you
mustn't but he did. The consequences
We're that he kissed her about forty
times and she didn't squeal-And the
people all said, why on earth don't
those two fools get married!"
Missouri blushed and the crowd
howled. In the midst of the uproar
the young lady rushed out of the room
and Joe after her. She was going
right home, she said Indignantly, and
she did, and Joe with her. And al
though she only lived some four
squares away, it took them from nine
o'clock to half past ten o'clock TO walk
it.. 1t lis observed that Missouri doesn't
tiirt any more, and that Joe has begun
to wear a plug hat, from which one
may be lead to infer that the .'conse-
quenees' of that nights work will be
all right.-Chicdgo Times.

SATURDAY, NAY 20, 1888,
SCHOOL FUNDS.

'[-ACCI>
The female teachers Of the public
schools i'll New Orleans are preparing
a petition to prcscntto the Legislature,
praying to have that body pay Them
salaries due for portions Of the wears
from 1891 to date. and to liQnidato
which there remain no funds i'll the
school treasury of New Orleans. 1t is
not than Justice that these teach
ers should be paid for their services
faithfully rendered. That they taught
the schools for the time for which they
seek remuneration no one will deny.
But when it ome to take the school
funds from the State treasury to pay
the amount fmore than 500, 900
claimed by the petitioners, the subject
assume another aspect.
The school funds are part and parcel
of the entire State, and any division OF
these monies, except Us provided by
law, viii be doing an injustice and a
wrong to the country schools that the
circumstances will not justify.
If the school teachers in New Or
leans have been unpaid, il is owing to
the stupidity of ..the school directors of
that city WHO employed them to work
when obey knew that there we're no
funds 10 pay them for the time employ
ed. The school directors OF the differ
ent parishes throughout the State have
exhibited q little common sense. and
when the funds 20 the credit Of their
respective parishes We're exhausted the
schools were closed, til teachers paid
for the time occupied and ted % lock
for other employment until funds
would accumulate. to open another
session. Had the directors Of the city
schools been possessed Of any Of that
same common sense the teachers would
not now be petitioning the Lesisla-
ture for relief.
Any attempt to employ the school
funds of the State to pay the back pay
ef the teachers in the city Of New Or
leans should not receive the sanction
ETA single representative, especially
from the country parishes.
The funds OF the State are to be dis
tributed pro rata according 10 law.
The Legislature may and could direct
these teachers warrants to be paid out
of the first school funds that will go
to the credit of the city schools, but it
has no legal or moral right 10 use
monies belonging to the parish schools
to pay debts incurred by directors Oh
city schools.
Some years ago the directors OF tic
city schools undertook to gobble ~ Il
lot of funds that belonged to the par
ishes, but were brought up with a
round turn by the Supreme Court. It
looks as if an effort to do the same
thing is now in course of preparation
in another way.
The Legislature should make it j
penal oftensa for any board OF sclaol
directors to employ teachers without
providing means of paying them fol
services rendered.
All this trouble could have been
avoided had the directors of the citv
schools exercised IL small modicum OF
prudence and business capacity.
Whilst every ons sympathizes with
these ladies in their natural desire to
be paid, they must not, however, ex-
pect to be paid out of the funds be.
