;s neither combination nor conspiracy on the

There is simply lack of definite information
and a natural and commendable reluctance TO
play the ignoble part of informer and spy.
College disciplinarians lay altogether too
much stress upon this so-called code OF honor.
In large community Of students there are
certain to be a few dissipated, reckless and law
loss men. who will occasionally be guilty OF
eycesses and outrages. Instead Of depending
mon the students to hunt down and expose the
offenders the college authorities ought to call
to their aid professional detectives, who can
do the work skilfuy and successfully and be
well compensated for It, II this were the
ordinary practice of university faculties
strong deterrent influence would be exercised
in preypnting various kinds OF college ruffian-
ism and crime. There is no reason why stu
dent who violates municipal or town law should
not be arraigned in the courts and prosecuted
a. an ordinary offender; nor can there be any
valid objection to the employment OF skilled
detectives in following up clews and ferreting
out the guilty. Certainly there would be fewer
college outrages if the students themselves
we're aware that detectives would be put on
their track whenever misdemeanOrs were COM
mitted.
Nearly all college presidents dislike to have
their students publicly prosecuted in the courts
and they shrink from reporting the scrapes'
reyels and brawis Of coleglans to the police
They prefer to encourage a secret system OF
espionage on the part OF charity students or
candidates for the ministry, and are surprised
when they find that there is strong prejudice
against informers More common-sense is
needed in the government Of students

mocracy and free liquor. But there Is the best
possible reason for believing that those who
wasted votes for Prohibition candidates did not
know what they were doing, and did not mean
to favor the party Of the saloons or the policy
of the saloons against practical step in the d.
rectiOn Of temperance.
So reasoning, many sincere friends Of temper
ance are disposed to say 1.-THE men who Sc
cured the repeal Of the Option License law must
bear the responsibility. Our skirts are clean,
and we must stand by that measure as the best
yet devised. If it can be improved in the night
of experience, good But in essentials it eX-
presses the will of the true friends of temper
ance. and we ask all who want " restored TO the
statute books to join vs. Again, and If need be
many times again, let the issue be made clear
between those who prefer the best attalnablo
measure and those who prefer the party OF the
saloons" This will not seem shrewd to the
politician. But no army marches backward
with much success Having definitely com
mittcd themselves to the measure adopted last
year having found that it was accomplishing all
they expected from it, the real friends OF TEN
pcrance cannot il they would, and would not II
they could, escape full responsibility Tor their
act II it was wise and good then. the recent
conduct of professed friends of temperance does
not make il less wise. They will not be able to
deny il asked, as candidates will be, that they
think the measure one which ought to be re-
enacted II is a question whether they can do
hotter than to avow formally and publicly their
intent to restore the act if the people give them

THE PROBLEM FOR TEMPERANCE MEN

In States where the temperance cause HAS
been beaten by the votes OF professed temper
ance men themselves, as in New Jersey, it be-
comes a perpleXing question what to do. IL it
were a naked question Of right, there would he
no difficulty. But the legislation which tho
large majority Of the friends Of temperance in
New.Je,sey Judged the best practicable, has
beeu overturned, and the repeal is not the less
the deliberate act Of the people though it WAS
made possible By the wasted votes OF the fol-
lowers of General Fisk, who now perceive that
they were used as a catspaw By liquor dealers
The ordinary politician, who likes TO dodge
rugged issues, can now say with truth By
electing a Democratic Legislature pledged To
rcpeal the Option License law, the people have
decided against that law. The repeal il their
act. Nothing better is possible. Therefore the
,ronor com SO is to resolve that the whole qucs-
ton shall be left hereafter to the people OF tho
Several townships, and that no party action
sb,II he taken on il In State Legislatures or con-
veutions, nor shall party candidates be per
nitted To pledge themselves for or against any
legislation whatever on the liquor question"
That a. logical position, and it has the merit
Of putting the responsibility exactly where 1t be-
longs, upon the so-called temperance men who
refused to uphold wise legislation. But it IL
nevertheless an untenable because impracticabie
position. Candidates will inevitably be noml.
mated who favor this or that measure. and Will
inevitably answer one way or the other qucs-
tons which voters ore sure to put to them But
IL Is not the business of any friends Of temper
suce to throw away an opportunity to do good
The folly of those who persisted in putting
Prohibition candidates in the field, though It
WIS evident that instruments OF the saloons
would thereby be elected, is not to be initiated
by men who Justly censure 1t. The repeal OF
the law might be accepted as final by the friends

The Maiden,s Diagnosis.

Now that the newspapers are all talking
of DIR. Brown-Sequard and his wonderful
elixir, stories of his experiences in this
vicinity are in order, and some of these
which are told are droll enough. 1t NAV
be remembered that one of his ideas was
that the nervous condition of a person
could be judged by the susceptibility OF
the skin, and this he tested by the distance
apart at which two pin pricks merged
themselves into one to the sensation of the
patient. This method he used with con.
siderable success, being not infrequently
called in as a specialist in complex cases OF
nervous disorder.
On one occasion, it is said, he was called
upon to go to the suburbs of Boston to see
young lady who was suffering from some
nervous trouble, and was left alone with
the patient to make his examination. After
time which seemed to the family rather
long he came down stairs with a serious
face and informed the family that he was
extremely sorry to report that the vitality
of the girl seemed so low that there
seemed no possibility of her rallying They
were thunderstruck, as the case though
obstinate, had by no means been regarded
as serious one. The family physician.
who had been unable TO be present, was
sent for in all haste. He assured the
frightened relatives that there was some
mistake, and proceeded to go up to the
chamber Of the invalid to hear her ac-
count of the examination.
That man you sent here" she an
nounced, almost before he could ask her,
'was fool"
"He is nothing of the sort" was the an
swer. "lie is an able specialist"
well, she said, 81 know he acted like
fool. All he did was to stick pins into my
back and ask me If it hurt OF course,

The physician was too much amused to
be angry, but the conclusion of DIR. Brown
Sequard was at once explained, to the great
relief of the family.-BOston Courier.

Notes of the Fair.


When the crash in the grand stand was
at its greatest, a sensation was caused at
the first stairway by lady screaming at
the top of her voice, MY watch! NY
watch Somebody has stolen itr She
ran about frantically for a moment and
then made rush for the ticket-taker who
stands at the head of the stairs. "Giye it
to me !" she cried, and she made grab for
the young mans vest pocket, where his
own time-piece nestled. He demonstrated.
and an elderly gentleman suggested that
the lady had better make sure that she had
lost her watch. She stopped screaming
and investigated. The crowd roared when
she found her watch where it had slipped
down in the bosom of her dress-but she
was "madder than wet hen."

to hold about ten persons. There are six

lots of others who have no right whatever,

that the writers are crowded and the stand
is in danger of breaking down. The

Goldsmith Maid and Lucy trotted, nor
that when General Grant was here was not
nearly so large. II is estimated by compe-
tent judges that no less than twenty thou

two o'clock the grand stand was filled to
its utmost capacity. Every seat was taken,
people were packed in like sardines. people
were standing 10 the aisles and it was i'm

The stairways were jammed full and the
Directors ordered no more tickets to be

as was the Directors stand, and the quar-

Hundreds of vehicles were in the paddock,
and thousands OF people viewed the con-
tests from the north stretch and the roof
of the cattle sheds. The great attraction of
the day, and that which perhaps more than
all others contributed 10 the large attend

well known merchant who has been
greatly benefited by Joys Vegetable Sarsa-
parilla, desired to give it to his wife, who
was very delicate, but out of caution first
consulted his physician, DR.. w H. Griswold
OF $50 Market street. The doctor, who is one
OF our leading practitioners objected, saying
he had never seen sarsaparilla that did not
contain potash, which thinned the blood:
that his patient did not have any vitality to
lose, and that what delicate people need is
not decreased vitality, but more blood. He
however consented when assured that Joys
Vegetable Sarsaparilla was opposed to the
blood thinning idea of other sarsaparillas,
and that on the contrary by specific yegeta-
bic alternatives it promoted digestion, and re-
paired nutrition, hence created new blood
and was the very thing for feeble people
The above explains the many cases in which
aged, delicate and run down people, have
been built up by joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla
