HUSBANDS NO GOOD"
With a Whole Lot of Light Chat
for the Ladies.

There is piquancy about the follow
ing that makes it worth printing. Miss
Sophie Eyre was doing the talking and
a New York Herald reporter was doing
the listening. Said Miss Eyre with
naivete:
| don't think we ought to marry, as
husband interfere, with our artistic
plans. An actress is more or less
hampered if she has man at her heels.
If an actress does marry she should
have man whom she could absolutely
dominate, or else one so superior to her
self that she would worship him for his
greatness. Commonplace, matter-of-
fact husbands are useless additions to
the family of woman on the stage.
This is from the Boston Transcripts:

Truly spoken, good M.lFlaubert! In

BODY else can bear the burden then. and
generally the utmost that we want of a
friend then is to stand near and be
silent. But when it comes to the little

petty things of civilization, then is
when we want the guardianship of
friend.

finally found some relief in hypodermic
injections, but the doctors told him he
could live but short time, and he could
be allowed to take nothing but koumiss.
They said GARFIELD lived eighty days
on it. The man declared that if he
could not live long he would take what
comfort he could, and he did not take
the sOur-milk preparation. He sent for
champagne, and Mortified the medical
scientists by drinking two glasses. He
dismissed the doctors, and for thirty
two days lived on two glasses of cham
payne each day. His appetite then be-
gan to return, and he fully recovered
his health. and has never had any touch
of govt since. Probably more than tive
glasses would have different effect.

THE BRITISH sYNDICATEs.

A correspondent asks: What is the
object of the English syndicates in buy
ing up the flour mills, the brewerieS
and coal m ines of this country? Is it
as some people claim, they invest i'll
this country because we have protect
i've tariff? If so, why don't they invest
in Germany, which has a protective
tariff also?'
We confess that we are hardly pre-
pared for this sort of catechism. That
the protective tariff is not the sole in
ducement is demonstrated by our CORE
Spondent's statement that Germany
offers the same inducement, and yet
British capital does not flow in that di-
rection. Our British friends are as
careful to conceal their object as they
are to hide their movements in making
these purchases; consequently no one is
authorized to state their motives. We
suspect, however, that the facilities af-
forded by the American tariff for fOS-
tering monopolies, and the great fort
unes that the trusts and various COM
bines have piled up in comparatively
short time, are the main inducements to
British capitalists 10 come over here
and invest. They are encouraged by
the success of an American plutocrat
who made money faster than it can be
made in England. In Germany the
tariff is established for the protection of
the great body of the people. In Amer
lea the tariff is established for the pro-
lection of the monOpolies and at the eX-
pense of the body of the people. AS a
result, the English men of Wealth.prefer

THE MODERN GHOST.

One of the Iowa towns has ghost
that appears in Mother Hubbard"
This is an innovation upon ghostly pro-
priety. There is nothing specially in
decorous about this garb. but it is a let
ting down of the high standards. There
is no authentic record of any unearthly
visitant shocking the mundane sensi-
billtieS by unseemly exhibitions of the
person or wearing the probable invest
mentS of any other world. Much credit
is due them for their conformity to the
tastes and concern for the sensibilities
of those they present themselves be-
fore. Some have represented ghosts in
costumes as immaterial as those 0
stage fairies, but these are flights of
Imagination. There have been some
viSitatiOns in nocturnal robes, but
ghosts never violate the canons of taste
and morality. At least no instance is
supported by reliable affidavits where
such has been the case. 1t is hoped
that decentralization is not to come by
way of Iowa.

AN INTERNATIONAL COURT.

- l. y "A
at their late annual meeting in Chi
cago, the American Bar association in
augurated a movement of vast conse
ouence, and one that Will eventually
bring all the nations of the earth into
one happy family. We refer to the
proposition to establish an international
court of justice, which was so ably adj
vocated by Judge COOLEY, and received
the cordial Endorsement of Mr.. GLAD
STONE in his letter to the association.
This idea of establishing an interna-
tional court of justice is not new one
yet it is one of those ideas that have to
await the processes of civilization for
mature development. There are evil
denees that the time is approaching, ii
not already here, when nations shall
war no more. 1t is limited that the OBJ
iect of the German emperor'S visit to
the different European courts is to pro-
pose and discuss privately with the va
rious rulers a plan by which the Euro
pean powers can diSband their standing
armies, and thus secure a perpetual
peace for Europe. The proposition
submitted by the American Bar asso-
citation, if adopted, will best Sc
cure to all the nations of the
world the very object which the
German emperor seeks to attain. When
they decide to substitute arguments for
arms in the settlement of international
questions, then there will be no neces-
sity Tor large standing armies. The
policy of our own nation i'll this respect
is a demonstration of the wisdom Of this
proposition. With an army of less than
$4,000 men and no navy at all, we Sus-
tain just as amicable relations with the
other nations of the world as if we had
a million of men constantly under arms
and our ships of war dotted all the
seas. The nations of the old world are
beginning to learn from us. They see
the security and prosperity that we EN-
joy, and wonder among themselves if it
is not possible, by following our ex-
ample, to achieve the same happy re-
suits. Now that they are in frame of
mind to be reasoned with on this sub
ject, 1t was happy thought Oh the part
of the American Bar association to
spring this proposition TO eStaollsn an
international court of justice. 1t should
be urged with vigor because the time
is ripe for its accomplishment. There
is no nation in the world in better
condition to take the initiative in this
matter, nor one from whom the prOpo-
SitiOn could come more appropriately.
We hope to see the next congress take
it up and duly authorize the president
to take formal action by inviting the
other nations of the world to unite with
us in the establishment of this policy.
During the 100 years of Our national ex-
istence civilization has made more
progress than in any thousand years
preceding the birth of our republic; yet
all our past achievements will not com
pare in Importance with this one, which
brings all the people of earth into bond
of perpetual amity.

STATE SENTIMENT.

Some people may have the opinion
that the Scheffer law to make drunk
enneSs crime is not good law. In
our judgment it is one of the best laws
that may be found upon the statute
books. In some localities it has had
a tendency to decrease the amount of
drunkenness, and that is what the law
is aiming at.-Wadena Pioneer.
There are forty-four independent
newspapers in Minnesota, papers that
refuse to train under the flag of either
party. and there will be more of them
every year. What is more, they are the
most successful papers, but they would
not be if the people did not believe in
and literally support them.-Albert
Lea Standard.

rent of Scandinavian sentiment urging
