THE REFUSED RE.HEAR1Nes.

Further discussion of the license question,
so far as rehearings are concerned, got
quietus yesterday in the very explicit final
deliverance of Judge White. 1t amounts
simply to declaration by the Judge. in which
his brethren on the bench have virtually
concurred, that he has determined every
case as well as he knew how from all the
evidence brought before him; that no per-
sonsl prejudice swayed his conclusion, and
that he does not propose to try and improve
upon his own recent decisions.
This now brings the question of the whole
salers before the Supreme Court. That some
of them have been knocked out without a
clear understanding on their part as to any
sufficient cause is pretty clear; that in such
cases more or less sympathy is extended,
particularly where the dealers seemed rep
utable and careful, and suffered heavy
loss by the refusal, is also evident; but it is
also manifest that the Judge is steadfast in
nothing less than the establishment by the
Supreme Court of some other standard than
the discretion Judge White exercised can
give any promise of better luck to the dis
appointed ones. For the refused retail
dealers there is no prospect worth mention.
ing of any change of fortune. This class,
however, while not feeling less the disap-
pointment than the wholesalers, will more
quickly get over it. Most of them are in
deed already engaged in or looking for other
nurs1itS

FRANCES MISFORTUNE.

Republican France is not quite stiff
enough in the region Of the spine to pass
over in silence the implied contempt of the
European monarchies in declining to send
representatives to the Inauguration of the
Centennial Exposition at Paris on Monday
last The cable brings news Of a rather re-
gretable state of feeling IN France. She
does not appreciate being snubbed by her
European neighbors, and she processes at
least to be surprised at the lack of warmth
in the attitude of England especially.
OF course, France can hardly expect con-
gratulations at this season from the descend
ants Of those royal personages, whose
thrones the events of 1889, so seriously
threatened. But she would have obtained
more respectful, if not more cordial, treat
ment if Frenchmen had more closely ad-
hered TO the republican idea since Liberty
had its bloody birth in France in 1889.
France, it is true, for twenty years almost,
has maintained the Republic which rose
from the ruins of Napoleon ILLS
empire. The majority of Frenchmen
has been during those twenty years
true to the Republic, Probably majOri-
ty is true still. But an aggressive minori-
ty, now verging upon majority, of French
men has not ceased at any time since the
death of Gambetta to plot against the Re-
publican Government. The General Bou-
LANCER episode is not yet ended. More than
once this year the movement of the Bou-
langists has imminently threatened the
very existence Of the Republic.
MOnarchical Europe is fully cognizant of
the lack of unanimous loyalty among the
French to their Republic. This knowledge
does not conspire to produce respect for
France among her friends or enemies. II
all France were loyal to the Republic, she
might not be more beloved, but she GER
tainly would be more respected. Snubs
would be fewer then.

AZURE FOR sPooKIsM.

OF late, as far as the public has been in
formed, professional spiritualists have not
favored Pittsburg with their presence. It
is not our intention now or our desire at any
time to bemoan the absence of spook-
mongers. As the timid young woman said
about burglars, Piftsburg will be mighty
glad to see spiritualists stay-away.
But should the dealers in raps and mate
rializing monkey tricks swoop down on this
community in the future we trust that the
methods of treating them recently applied
by DR.. Francis Buckner, of Covington, in
the Buckeye State, will be adopted general
ly. DR.. Buckner was not the dupe of spir-
itualism, but his wife seems to have been
converted by practical medium.
Returning few days ago from his daily
round of professional visits he found the
proseiyting medium and two assistants of
the gentler sex holding a seance in his par
lor, properly darkened for the purpose. He
became one of the audience, which was soon
invited to profit by visit from his wife's
deceased sister. The visitor dimly appear
ing in white, the doctor seized her by the
waist, carried her yelling to the front door
and threw her down the steps. When she
was untangled and Strengthened out she
proved to be one OF the mediumistic helpers.
Then the doctor threw the other helper out
of the window and gave the principal a
sound thrashing. After clearing up these
preliminary points in the discussion he dis
sected the cabinet and explained its philosO-
ply in full to those who had lingering
doubts.
Since then court of justice has decided
that DR.. Buckner's methods were legal as
well as extremely practical. Spooks would
grow scarce and their producers thin if
everybody applied the DR.. Buckner tests to
spiritualistic phenomena.

ODD ITEMS FROM FOREIGN SHORES.

THE largest circulation on record is that at.
tanned by the volume Hymns, Ancient and
Modern. i" Twenty million copies have been sold
in the Is years of its existence.
THERE is so long list of applicants for ad-
mission to the London AthenSum Club that the
last man elected had been waiting for 10 years.
and Is years is the average time that name re-
mains on the Lists there unless 1t Is so d1sttn-
guished that it is taken up out OF Its order.
Three or four years is said to be moderate
time to wait for chance Of admission to many
other clubs in London.
KAISER WILLIAMS change of the court dress
back to the fashions of 100 leads one of the
leading social organs Of London to consider the
influence of the Prince of Wales on fashions
and the conclusion is that it Is very small. A
couple of years ago his attempt to force a
''cross-lined check on a stiff-necked West End"
was q complete failure. This year he has tried
to make knee breecheS 60, but they don't 60.
He has very strong dislike to black tie with
evening dress. but even there he has been able
to enforce his idea only upon such men as are
on the guestlist of Marlborough House, from
which several names have been crossed off for
disregard of their hosts preference for white
cravats.
