Card EtiQuette.

One gentleman asks: "If seven or eight ladies are staying in one house-say, Mrs Taylor and two daughters, Mrs. Brown and three daughters, and the Misses Sinclair, sup pose wish to call on them all, should leave seven or eight cards, or shall simply call on the hostesss'
 Simply call on the hostess and ask for the others, we should say, or possibly on the two married ladies, inquiring for the others There IS common sense in etiquette, as there is in everything else, and gentleman must decide these questions for himself, nor leave cards in packs A card is ones self, and must be treated as such. It is the beginning and the end of etiouette. the alpha and the omega of social inter- course. The card is the first introduction and final leave taking. These little pieces of white pasteboard, if imperishable, will, in their amount, their many inscriptions, puzzle the New Zealander who tlisinters New York, after 900 years, as the Schnemanns of to- day are digging up old Troy. 'sWhat are theya" they all ask. "Do they represent the money of that buried peoplea'
 Indeed, the card business, being the social exchange of society, multiples itself so in- definitely that wit once suggested that there should be clearing house for cards, where Mr. Brown and MT. Smith and MT. and Mrs. Jones should leave their cards for each other on the 1st of January, and the in- terchange afterward be managed by clerks. The idea is a good one, but, unfortunately, lmpracticable, as the sentiment of personal friendship and attention still hinges around the card.-Mrs Sherwood in St. Louis Re- public

FAILURE THAT IS SUCCESS.

THE sturdy effort that is being made by Representative Wolfe of New Haven to impress the republican legislature at Hartford with sense of its own in S. tice in foisting republicans and out of town judges on democratic New Haven is certain to die a-bornin. It is destined, unfortunately, to meet the fate that has attended the demands of other demo- crats who have asked for bread from their republican brothers and have been given diet of cobble-stones.
 Nevertheless Representative Wolfe is right. If his unanswerable arguments make no impression on the hardened and unconscionable partisans at Hart ford, if they bring no blush to the cheek of men who owe their official positions and fat salaries to political minority, they may serve to impress the people with a sense of the glaring injustice that is done and desire to stand alongside their sister states in making effective the first principles of American liberty. They may not bear fruit in this or the next generation-it takes long time to make men believe they are greedy when their mouths are stuffed-but the con- stant reiteration of the injustice must eventually make the people realize the darkness in which we live and cause a reaction that will sweep out of office the utterly absurd system that the republi- cans have fastened on our state. And then again his arguments may serve to re- mind weak-kneed democrats that, no matter how fervently republican papers may preach civil service reform when a democratic administration is in power they take no stock in the humbug when there is a chance to make it effective The only civil service reform the repub- licans believe in is that which puts their hand first in the grab bag and keeps it there until all but the blanks are drawn out.
 Representative Wolfe will fail but he may be regarded as the pioneer of a movement that must ultimately bring success.

A VOICE FROM UTAH.

The protest made by thirteen thousand citizens of Utah against the admission of the territory into the Union deserves attention. The protest has been presen- ted to the house of representatives by the liberal territorial committee. The pe- tltloners say that although they are in a minority in the territory they have a right to be heard, and the fact that they are unanimous in opposition to the ad- mission of Utah they say is an un- answerable argument against the prop ositlon for it's admission. The petitioners give number of reasons in support of their position, some of which are that the state would be under the tyrannical domination and control of secret or ganization commonly called the Mormon club that polygamy, which is essential part of the creed of the church, would be perpetuated and the laws against crime would not be enforced, and that it would place the common schools under control of the Mormon church.
 These reasons or any of them are suf- ficient to keep Utah out of the Union, and it would not be healthy for any parry or individual politicians to seek its ad- mission while the conditions enumerated by the protesters prevail There will have to be decided change if Utah is to be made state.

English Tenant Wrong,

In 1869 One Ash farm, Monyash, which has been since that date tenanted by the Bow man family, was only a poor homestead, with much uncultivated land and a right of In 220 years the tenants have inclosed drained and cultivated these sO9 acres, put up, chiefly at their own expense, outhouses and agricultural buildings and greatly i'm proved the farm house. And what is the re- suit? The rent has been about multiplied by ten on tho strength of their improvements, and if they are turned out tomorrow the whole visible results of these two centuries of toll and outlay are the property of his grace the Duke of Devonshire And there are pco- pie who think that this system can last!- London Truth

republican committee is being consid- cred. And let the great American public be an interested audience. 1t likes to hear the scream of the national bird when it is warning off foreign vultures. It likes to hear the flap of the wings that are thrown, like the arm of Her cules, about the rights of the American citizen.
 Executive sessions are relics of the dark ages. They should not be tolerated in a free republic. We should always have open sessions, but especially when a matter of such vital importance as the British treaty is pending.

LATCH STRING OUT.

The senate having decided to discuss the Samoan troubles in open session it certainly ought to be equally considerate in letting the public into its confidence while the British extradition treaty is up for discussion and action. There is a chance for the jingo republicans to make great noise while talking about Bayard's Samoan policy, and it is quite certain the American eagle will be made to flap his wings in great shape. We'll, let the eagle scream so loud that Bis marck will hear its screech, but let him chirp his loudest when the, villainous treaty that Minister West imposed on a

STICK A PIN IN HIM.

There is a freak in the legislature at Hartford whose rightful home seems to be few miles further down the Con- necticut river. This untamed relic of the dark ages rejoices in the name of Wheeler and he comes from the historic town of Stonington. He has introduced a bill that would put White Caps on the selectmen of our towns, frilled and f1uted with all the sanctions of Connecticut law. This bill authorizes the selectmen of any town to go before a justice of the peace and swear out a warrant against any objectionable person and the latter will have to leave town within certain time. The bill also fixes a penalty for any person who shall rent living apart ments to such objectionable. persons after the warning has been served
 Representative Wheeler seems to be a Rip Van Wrinkle who is sleeping through the nineteenth century, and believes himself still in the age of Salem witches, scarlet letters and Connecticut blue laws. Someone ought to stick pin in him to bring him out of his sleep. Wheeler may be wag, but there is a place at Middletown where such wags Will lind congenial surroundings.

SECRETARY WHITNEY's mascot was with him in the construction of the dynamite cruiser Vesuvius. She was contracted to be built for S350,000, but the contractors say she cost S45O, 1000 and thatsthey are consequently S100,O00 out of pocket by the operation. This state mant seems to be verified by the fact that the appropriation asked for by the naval authorities for another cruiser of her class is S450,000, as the contractors are too wise to be caught again. If the next secretary is one after Bill Chandler S style they won't rule.

The Great Gibraltar.

Gibraltar is interesting on account of the many historic associations connected with former days, tho days when Christian and Moore contended for mastery in the south of Europe and waged an unrelenting contest, which lasted for hundreds of years, even long after the time when Charles Martel, or Charles ''The Hammer" before the gates of Tours, rolled back the tide of Saracenic in vas1on. Not far away is Tarifa, the hill above the town crowned with Moorish castle said to be the same occupied by Tarifa, the great Moorish chieftain, whose levies of toll upon the shipping which passed in and out of the strait gave our language the word tariff"
 Places, like men, sometimes have greatness thrust upon them, but it is impossible to agree with the author that this is the case with regard to Gibraltar, for the huge noun tain of solid rock which rises from the sea on the southwest extremity of Spain is promi- nent for it's remarkable geological character, and from the most ancient times was a land mark, one of the Pillars of Hercules Europe is here only nine miles from Africa, a dis tance readily covered by the heavy guns now mounted in the fortress, and so England, if she chose, could bar the commerce of half the world.
 Through the strait, beneath the guns of the fort, a heavy current forever runs to the east, the water of the Atlantic swiftly flow ing into the inland sea and apparently not returning, a phenomenon which has caused, up to the last few years, no little astonishment among scientists, who accounted for it by the immense evaporation in the east of the Med iterranean. But deep sea investigations have demonstrated that although the surface cur rent through the strait always flows to the east, deep down beneath the surface there is counter current of cold water returning to the Atlantic. Above the strait stands the mountain, the Lion Couchant, with head ], 400 feet in the air, facing the Spanish peninsula, for such is the appearance presented by the rock when the traveller comes in from the sea.-Cor.

QUESTIONING THE FORK.
5omethin. Concerning the OIigin of This
 Very Useful Article.

Something Concerning the OIigin of This
 Very Useful Article.
 One of those heterodox fellows who may be found to question everything, asks upon what sound principle is the law founded that for bids the putting of the knife into the mouth in eating Why should plate of steel he asks, be interdicted from an office that the same steel, bifurcated, trifurcated or quadru- furcated, may properly performs There is no objection to be made on the score of cutting ones mouth, for in all ages of the past, when everybody ate with the knife, nobody ever cut his mouth. This heretic asserts that a certain consistency of food can be 'hoisted, y as western man would say, much more readily by a knife than by fork. Of course you can get the bulk of a mashed potato or turnip by dexterously fishing with a fork, but you can do it much heater and in better time with knife, he continues; and then the knife will secure all the gravy, which is mostly sifted out by the operation of the fork, and one thus loses the richest part of the meal.
 It is matter of history that knives played an important part in domestic life long before forks were invented, and that when first the latter implements appeared it was considered mark of etfeminacy or ultra refinement to use them. To such degree was this preju- dice against them indulged in France that in the Sixteenth century the use of forks was considered sinful In monasteries, and the monks split up into two parties on the question.
 Forks originally came into use to save the fingers from soiling, and Italy was the first place where they were used. Ben Jonson writes of ''the laudable use of forks brought into custom here as they are in Italy to the sparing of napkins" Some time later a writer praises the king of Hungary for eat ing without fork without soiling his clothes An old writer explains why the Italian used the fork by saying that he could not 'endure to have his dish touched with his fingers, sec ing that all mems fingers are not clean alike. !" But the fork was originally and up to very modern times used only to hold meat and other pieces of food while the knife was cut ting them The putting of it into the mouth instead of the knife was only an afterthought, due probably to the unclean appearance of the knife blade after it had been used to shovel into the mouth gravies, egg yolks, acids, etc. For this reason silver forks were made they are cleaner than iron and steel forks Every step, then, from the original use of the fork as a substitute for the fingers, to its more extended use a substitute for the knife, together with the employment of silver in place of iron, has been dictated by cleanli- ness-Good Housekeeping.
