BOULANGER'S BAD EMINENCE.
His Success Regarded as q Serious
Blow At the Stability Of the Republic.

Special Cable Dispatch to TIE EVENING SrAR
LONDON, April 16.-The return OF Boulanger by
so large majority Is considered on all hands q
serious blow to the stability OF the French re-
public. Even the radicals, who were disposed at
first to play him on against the Ferryftes, are
alarmed at the commanding position he has
assumed. From what is known OF his character
he appears quite capable OF quietly dlsregarding
his declarations In favor OF the republic and OF
peace. Like Louis Napolean he denies that the
Due d'Aumale had anything TO do with his noni-
nation as q general although forced afterward to
admit It, owing TO the production OF letter In his
own handwriting. Again it is well known that
while at Clermont he denied connection with
electoral maneuverS, although afterward con-
fronted with his own cipher kilograms. The Nori,
however, has always been opposed To the republic
At the general electonin 1855, the reactionaries
carried all the twenty seats Boulangers increased
majority shows that he contrived TO secure O
certain proportion OF the republican votes

The .Fonrteen Mistakes ofLife.

Somebody has condensed the mistakes Of life, and arrived at the conclusion that there are four teen of them. Most people would say, if they told the truth, that there was no limit to the mistakes of life; that they were like the drops in the ocean or the sands on the shore in number; but 1t is well to be accurate. Here, then, are, fourteen great mistakes: It IS a great mistake to set up our own standard Of right and wrong, and judge people accordingly; to measure the enjoyment of others by our own; to expect uniformity of opinion in this world; to look for judgment and experience ir youth; to endeavor to mould all dispositions alike; not to yield to immaterial trifes; to look for perfection in our own actions; to worry ourselves and others with what can not be remedied; not to alleviate ali that needs alleviation as far as lies in our power; not to make allowances for the infrmities of others; to consider everything impossible that we cannot per form; to believe only what our finite minds can grasp; to expect to be able to- understand every thing. The greatest of mistakes is to live for time alone, which any moment may launch us into eternity.

in the same fix, so that he could depend on square deal. His partner, Col. John Morrissey, is immensely wealthy, and has over S300,000 invested in race-horses. His stables in Denver hold 175 of them. Three years ago he married a school teacher, as he claimed, in order to learn to read and write. Diamond Joe lives like a prince in magnificent residence in Chi cago.
 The first mine ever sold in Col orado was disposed of by Joe Wat son, twenty-five years ago. He received $100,000 for his mine. That was big money in those days. He lost it all by dissipation, and went broke for two years. In 1882 he got $700,0O0 cash for his in terest in the Evening Star mine near Leadville. Joe Watson has not one cent on earth to-day.
 I know busted prospector that applied to Jack Haverly several years ago for loan of S100 as q stake. Jack gave him $1000 The prospector located some property and gave Mir. Haverly half in terest in it. He can sell out any day for $50,000.
 Denver has more men 1n it worth over S500,G00 than any other city in the United States except New York and Philadelphia. They all made their fortunes out of mining. New mines are being discovered every year. The work so far has merely scratched the surface. No figures can estimate the wealth that will be taken out of the Rocky Mountains in the centuries to come. - St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

 It is to be hoped the present Congress will pass general na- tional law on the subject of di- vorce. The laws of divorce in the several states and territories are entirely dissimilar. 4 man may marry in New York, leave his wife there, come to Arizona, get 8 di- vorce and then marry a second wife here. But if he return to New York his first wife could sue him for divorce on the ground of adul- tery, yet he could not be convicted of being a bigamist as his divorce and second marriage were perfect ly valid here. Such a case came before one of the New York courts a short time ago, and the judge held tkat the California court where the husband gained his di vorce had no jurisdiction over the wife living in New York and her rights were not in any way af- fected. Aside from the social en- tanglements arising from this con- dict of laws other questions may arise-as to the legitimacy of chil- dren, rights of property, in- heritance and succession. etc. The question is vexatious one, but it cannot be left unsettled forever. There seems to be no way out of the difficulty except by national law on the suhject.-Ex.

Hog Heat In Mexico.


 The following extract from the letter of a traveller in Mexico shows what field there is for an export trade of pork to that country:
 Hog meat is an expensive luxury down ia Mexico. l never found 1t out until the last time l was there this fall. I was up at little mining town, and was buy ing some supplies to take up to a mining camp in which l am inter ested. l saw some nice looking side meat or bacon on the counter in the supply store, when 1t oc- cured to me that it would taste pretty well for breakfast some morning. l ordered the clerk to cut off ten pounds for me, and while he was preparing to do it l asked him how he sold it. You can imagine my astonishment when he said he would reduce the price to me and make it $1 a pound. Well, l didn't buy it. As for hams-they never saw ham there. The Mexicans know noth- ing about the curing of meat, and the bacon they sell IS imported from the United States. It was only quite recently they began selling meats by the pound. They formerly sold it by the yard. Go- ing into their markets you would see the beef and other meats cut up in strips, which was measured out to the customer. The very finest fresh beef is sold there at Is cents to p cents per pound"
 The rooster would be a much more popular bird # he could only be induced to feel that there IS no real, vital necessity for his re- porting his whereabouts between midnight and 3 o'clock in the morning. We know that he is at home, in the bosom of his family. So are we, but we don't get up in the middle of the night to brag about it.-Puck.

surprising how general the impression is
becoming that these $4,000 "hoaters"
will decide Indiana's 3 fate. The Commit
tee of One Hundred, who propose to
prevent fraud and corruption, have un-
dertaken a contract that is regarded as
impractical by practical politicians.
There is no system of registration in In
diana, nothing to prevent repeating, col
onization or fraud, except the activity
and vigilance of political workers. The
law requires that no precinct shall carry
more than 300 voters, and the State be-
tween seventeen and eighteen hundred
precincts. Necessarily every precinct
must swell over it's limit be-
tween the periods of taking the
census. There is nothing to prevent
q Snowflake" as the repeater is
called here, from falling down at q
polling place and when his vote is chal-
lenged having it sworn in with the aid Of
any one who owns property. 1t is easier
to repeat in Indiana than it is to vote.
Both parties are closely watching the
Southern and Southwestern borders of
the State, for from those sections "snow.
flakes" fall more numerously at any
price from 81 to IS "fiake."
The Prohibitionists in Indiana are
quiet, but are conducting an effective
campaign. In 1886 they polled 9,1S5
votes, and predict this year 900. Two
years ago they had organizations in only
fifty.one of the ninety-two counties.
This year they are organized in all but
eight counties. They have on their rolls
nearly twenty thousand names, but all
these are not of voters. They are max
ing systematic and vigorous campaign
in all the Republican districts, particu-
larly in those where Judge Gresham's
strength is greatest. One prominent
Gresham man has contributed $500 to
the Prohibition fund, more than any
Greshamite has given to the Harrison
cause.-[N. Y. World.
