AN INTERESTING LITIGATION.

The suit against a firm Of cigarette manu.
facturers by an actress, Miss WADE, for dam
ages alleged TO have been lone her by scatter
ing broadcast over the country photographs
of her arrayed in tights, involves n novel
question and an important one. Miss WADE
asserts that she has never appeared in tights
and that she has steadfastly refused to do so
ct the sacrifice often of lucrative engage
ments. To her such apparel is immodest,
immoral and repugnant.
The practice of using photographs of
prominent people for advertising purposes
is universal, and it is we'll, perhaps, to have
it settled within what bounds it may be
done.
If by the verdict in the Wade case it shall
be decided that the fair plaintiff has been
damaged in good nnmo, fame and credit by
picluring her in tights. will 1t reflect upon
those other stage beauties who revel in
them?
Suppose that some ill-natured cigarette
manufacturer should insist on portraying in
long skirts and a Puritanic style some stage
nymph who glories in her shapely form
and its exhibition, what is the damage done

THE HEIGHT OF ABsURDITY.

The ideN that a public Office is n public
trust fnds no Judgment in the minds of the
pa.ronage-monGers, who are undertaking to
parcel out the Federal Offices in this city.
To them the man is nothing, the machine
everything.
According TO the scheme of these intensely
practical politicians, when an Office is ac.
corded to a man, 1t is not to him but to his
''deestrick" that the plum is given, and
should he move from that particular bailiwick,
he forfeits his Office, no matter how faithful
and efficient a servant he may be.
Such a view of the public service Is gro
tesquely absurd, and would be amusing if it
las not SO vicious and debasing.

Mr.. Frank Furness, of Philadelphia, has n
smoking den that is regarded as one of the
notable rooms i'll the country. Philadelphia
has several distinctions among others it is
IL city of back alleys. This is not only u
convenience in the matter of ash barrels,
which Philadelphians send out the bnck way,

of building. 1t is on this eek alley exp sure
that Mr.. Furness has built his smoking den.
Mr.. Furness is q mighty hunter, and has
travelled many times to the Rocky Mountain,
and returned home laden with spoils. This
den is one-story high, butt of ced, r. slabs un.
planned and with n sloping roof. Inside
there is adado of unbarked young ccdars and
u fireplace built of rough blocks of gnelss
The ratters a exposed. and tho beams aye
hung with skins and Indian blankets. The

of buffalo and lear. The adornments OF the
room are antlers of moose, elk and deer. the
