DISTURBING THE PEACE or JONES'

For 10! fly has appeared in the ointment OF

pEANUT POLITICS IN THE WAY.

II is idle to speculate as to what Governor
Hill will do or can afford to do in any given
situation. lie has no principles in politics, nor
any use for principles. He has no regard for
consistency, nor any notion that consistency is
demanded by his party. Eo has no respect
for lofty ideals nor for that portion Of the
people to whom conscientious considerations
appeal. If any other man than he were
Governor Of New ork we should say that the
results of the experiments that have been made
this fall in ballot reform would surely bring
about such an understanding between the
Executive and the Legislature at Albany as
would render it possible to get ballot-reform
bill upon the statute books before the session
of 1889-9O ends The objections he urged
to the legislation of last spring have been diSsi-
pated by actual experience. 1t is no longer
his opinion against other peoples. The law has
been tried and is a success. II accomplished
its purpose-the protection Of voters against
Establishments, brides and coercion, and with
out any one of the accompanying evils he so
loudly and dolefully foretod.
And yet there is no reason to believe that
this will make any difference to Governor
Hill. He knows the effect Of the law in New
| York would be to diminish the power for harm
Of Tammany Hall, and that far outweighs all
other facts. When Tammany cannot oolonize
and brow-beat and bribe and bulldoze Demo
cratic victories in the State are at an end and
the Governor will see no further than this.
| Why should he? Has he not been elected. and
has he not elected his tickets despite the fact
that he is the notorious agent of the liquor
interest, smutted with dozen scandals? The
worse he does the more votes he gets. The
more intolerant he becomes of honorable public
sentiment, the dearer he is TO Tammany, and
TO the rank and file of tho Democracy every
where. Then why should he care what worthy
men say of him? Why should he bother t.
draw moral lessons from moral events
There will DO no real reform In New-forl

Two steps in the direction of running the
Broadway cars with cables were taken yesier-
day. The Sinking Fund Commissioners first
approved the application of the company Tor
the privilege of changing it's motive power and
then the matter was carried before the Board
of Aldermen, by which favorable action was
also taken. The Aldermen's vote on the ques-
ton was ii tot. So much scandal was caused
in the Board by this same Broadway road a
few years ago. and the consequences were so
grave to some of the participants, that it is MOI
surprising large majority were eager to get
the matter off their hands as quickly as possible

That the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union is "in politics" was proved conclusively
by its rejection yesterday of the proposed
amendment TO the constitution of the body de-
claring the objects of the Union to be " to in
terest and unite the Christian women of this
Nation in NOM ectarian and non-partisan tenn
perance work." etc. This reasonable PROPOSE
ton provoked warm debate, and the speakers
in favor of it were roundly Kissed and rudely
told TO sit down. 1t is not surprising that Mrs.
J. Ellen Foster pronounced the convention a
partisan body and denounced the Kisses that
greeted her as partisan also. The funny ele-
ment was contributed by delegate who argued
that the Union was non-rartisan because it
was ready to support any party which would
put prohibition plank in its platform

Queer Toilet Recipes.

Hair dyes aud toilet beautifers do not
belong exclusively to our day and gen.
Grafton. Indeed, at the present time,
there is d strong sentiment against the
use of cosmetics, and preparations for
improving" the hair. The Woman's
World publishes the following toilet
recipes that were given out in the days
of ancient Egypt's glory:
Curious hair recipes occur on some of
the papyri, some of which are very
absurd. One to prevent the hair from
turning gray directs that q salve should
be made from the blood of black calf
cooked in oil; in another that of black
bull is preferred for the same object
evidently the color of the animal was to
pass through the salve into the hair.
In another place We read OF the ,toot b
of q donkey, dipped in honey, being
used for really strengthening the hair,
and the ingredients for an ingenius COM
pound are given for injuring the hair of
q rival, and the counter-remedy to be
used by those who think their hair-oil
has been tampered with by suspicious
friend.
Cakes of some composition which alb
sorbed oil were always placed on the heads
of guests at feast, and from them the
oil gradually trickled down through the
hair. A most disagreeaole practice this
may seem to US, but to them it appears
to have given great pleasure; and with
the Egyptians as we'll as the Hebrews,
oil was symbolcal of joy and gladness.
Rouge and other coloring substances
were used by Egyptian women to en-
hance. as they thought, their beauty.
The eyes had oftec green line under
meath them; the lsshes and eyebrows
we're penciled in black, and, as in mod
ern Egypt, the nails were always stained
red with preparation from the henna
plant.

A Coveted War Relic.

Among the many relics of the battle.
fields kept in the Bureau of Military
Statistics in the Capitol is small
daguerrotype of an infant. It is faded
somewhat, and time has deadened the
bright of the gilt on the frame. A piece
of paper fastened to it tells the casual
visitor that the picture was picked up
on a battlefield and that it is supposed
to be that of a child of Robert and
Ellen McGinnis, of Brooklyn. Robert
belonged to Company *, Thirty. seventh
New York Volunteers. A few days ago
an elderly lady strolled through the
room where the relics are kept, and
among them all she noticed the picture,
and her memory took her back to the
early 'GOs, when her husband shoul-
dered rifle and went away to war with
