WASHINGTON attended church 100
years ago to-day. His example is good
10 follow.
KANSAS requires as many internal
revenue liquor licenses as Nebraska,
although the latter does not attempt to
prohibit.
A CHURCH fair in Illinois is said to be
working the pigs in clover puzzle with
live pigs. This will evidently ada to
the vivacity of the festive occasion.
The Omaha Herald reports Maj.
EDWARDS, the Fargo rustler, as in that
city looking for new points in the great
national game of poker. Are new ac-
quirementS needed for the state era?
AT THE inception of the war patriotic
eyes were cheered at the sight of the
stars and stripes floating above the
cross on the old Trinity church in New
York. They are there again now in
view of the centennial.
FIT is demoralizing to the public to
read of public executions, what is the
effect of divorce trials, such as the Chi
cago mind Graves? Are not the attor-
neyS there, who get their divorces in
secret, protectors of the public morals?
The latest society usage is to drop
the my III the address of letters. The
dear is retained and in love letters
may be made superlative and the my
retained. although this is found incOn-
yenient when the letters turn up in
the breach of promise suits.

The billiard table i'll the White house
has had rest since ARTHUR left, but
the dust is now off, and HARRISON and
HALFoRD find quiet and relief from the
ravageS of the office-seeking horde
there. 1t Is bad man shut out who
finds the hermetic SecluSion of Sunday
due to this table.
IT IS alleged, and not disputed, that
the United States government has paid
out more money to investigate the dis
eaeeS of hogs, than it has for all pur-
poses connected with the health of the
people. Diseased animals fare cured or
killed, and it might be for the general
welfare of humanity if the same solicit
tude, with the needed adaptations, was
extended to the human animal.
IT IS said that the use of tie tele-
phone Is growing less rather than in
creasing in the East, owing to the high
rates. In New York and New England
some of the lines have been taken down.
The policy of the monopoly is always
to keep up the tariff or suspend. In
Rochester the city had the poles and
wires removed in face of this menace.
Unless there is an extension of patents
there may be relief in 1891.

The New York Sun probably had
tery limited observation, when it said
that 1.-THE majority of the scholars in
the public schools do not know anything
about the cause of the coming centen-
NAL jubilee That is not true of the
West, however it may be nearer the
events recalled. So far as the display
in New York is concerned, prominent
cause of the jubilee may be to rent win
dOws and fences to sightseers.
The question of capital punishment
is not one especially congenial to the
female intellect, but the young ladies
who grappled the suggestively lugubri-
Gus subject at the competitive debate of
the high schools of the Twin Cities
Friday evening aligned we'll with the
masculine element in their grasp of the
essential points. They displayed COM
mendable nerve in taking so active a
part in the debate, and indicated the
record of the sex in graceful tiuency.
MORE than any Of the other great mill
tary powers of the old world, Italy is now
feeling the burden of sustaining a vast
army. Its alliance with Germany and
Austria has deprived it of a good deal
of valuable trade with France. The
consequent stagnation in. industries is
throwing people out of employment, and
large numbers Of them are migrating.
This country will get large share, and
the image vendors and hand-organ avo-
cations are likely to have q surplus.

II Is not as common in ST. Paul per-
haps as in Eastern cities, to see ladies'
OH the streets carrying pet dogs in their
arms or led by chain, but there are
such Instances. Some OF the fashion
papers have departments devoted to
this rather ludicrouS fad, and it is OBJ
served from them that the pet poodles
are 10 be worn larger than they have
been. 1t is no doubt regarded as de-
Sirable to preserve the esthetic har-
monies to have husbands to match the
dogs.
OMAHA papers regard the apparently
assured construction of the railroad
from Yankton, Oak. to Norfolk, Neb.,
under the auspices OF the Manitoba
system, as Twin city encroachment
upon their territory, and menace to
Omaha traffic. 1t is insisted that there
must be a revival of the somewhat
chestnutty project of a road direct
from Omaha to Yankton. There is a
vast region being developed that will
afford valuable traffic for the CONNER
ciai points that have the enterprise to
go for ii.
