ST. PAUL PARKS.

In the various schemes under way to
induce Eastern capital to select the
Twin Cities as a place of investment,
too little attention is paid to the de-
velopment of system of public parks.
In the case of st. Paul this is particu-
larly so. Point after point of great
natural beauty in the Sanity City has
been permitted to pass under the con-
troll of spectators, and, through their
manipulations and so-called improve
ments, become things of beauty no
more. In this way, despite the ener-
gies of an active park commission,
Como lake, the Third street front, Men
dota bluffs and interior points are fast
passing that point where the eXpendi-
ture of comparatively small sum of
money could make them beauty spots
forever. Public sentiment seems dead
to the Importance of an Immediate en-
largement of our park system. There
is ridiculous failure upon the part
of intelligent people to appre-
ciate that one of the cheapest
ways in which to advance values
in st. Paul, to provide valuable adver-
tisement for her, to retain her natural
beauties, is to lay out and construct an
extensive park and boulevard system.
Chicago, with her park advantages, has
never yet found reason to complain OF
the money invested in them: nor Cleve-
land; nor Philadelphia. With the ex-
ample of these elder sisters before her,
ST PauI,S failure tO act thereby amounts
to criminal neglect. 1t is wanton fail
ure to convert to practical uses birth
right such as few cities possess. 1t is
not saying too much to assert that any
other city but st. Paul, to-day the pos
SCISSOR of such natural scenery as she
has, would treble its value at once with
parks and boulevards. AS it is, st. Paul
can not much longer remain blind to the
necessities of the case. For her to re-
main a third-class city in this respect
means an incalculable loss in dollars
and cents, aside from the destruction of
garden spots intended by their location
to remain forever feasts for the eye
and soul. In the language Of the COM
mission appointed to locate state park,
and which has selected the valley of the
Minnehaha:
''It is yet possible to preserve nearly
the whole of this historic region, and
we appeal to the state of Minnesota for
its own honor and interest,"" etc.
The honor and interest of st. Paul are
at stake, as well, in this important mat
ter.

A POINTER.

The Indianapolis correspondent of
a New York paper affords strong pre-
sumption that he did not receive in
ducements to protract his sojourn there.
in the staten ent that "Gen. HARRISON
likes to have protesting Christians
around him." That may also furnish
solution of the abruptness of the de-
parture of some other visitors, and indi-
cate test of cabinet material. On this
account, the writer says, JOHN WANA-
MAKER and WARNER MILLER are IA
vorites. No denominational line is
drawn, as MILLER is Methodist, and
MORTON, who was graciously received,
is an Episcopalian. Nor is it insisted
that any deeper tests than professions
and church rolls are requisite. Repub-
lican politicians are not noted for their
piety, but are quick to catch on to point
ers that lead to official thrift. In an
emergency it is related that one of the
most notable, now deceased, joined his
home church by telegraph just before
senatorial election in which he was a
candidate. AS there are several hun
bred thousand people who want to be
liked by the Indianapolis man. mission
airy workers will note an immense field
whitening for the harvest.

COMEDY's PART.

To the long list of contributors to
the CoQUELN-IRvING dispute, w. Fl.
CRANE, the comedian, has added his
name. His position is antagonistic to
NJ. CooUELN, in that he deprecates the
dual character in comedy-acting and in
sists that. far more than the tragedian,
the comedian must have his own per-
sonality and become for the nonce an
other being. In other words, Hamlet
may be Hamlet and BOOTH at the same
time; but a Dromio never aught but
DromiO, not CRANE. His assertion that
the comedians fame is not short-lived
is barely demonstrable. His citations of
the fame of BURTON. the English ROB-
SON, and LEMAITRE 1.-THE present time,
are weak proofs for his argument, for
outside of the profession they adorned,
theirinames are Greek to the great mass
of theater-goers. In the very nature of
a comedians work lies the prophecy of
his obliteration from memory after his
death or retirement from the stage. The
human mind is SO constituted that the
laugh, the quip, the jest-aye the season
with Dromio, leave the least impress

THE CAUSE OF 1T.

The growing thrift of oculists and OPP
ticians, and the frequency with which
people are met on the streets Of cities
wearing glasses-not aged people whose
vision is impaired by years, but most
numerously young girls-has elected
much inquiry and speculation. Various
causes have been assigned for the inn
pairments of the eyesight so notable
with the young, some of them of eli
matte and local character. That these
are not the chief agencies, is evident
in localities in other parts of the coun-
try, with quite different natural circum-
stances. An eminent physician in New
York has been investigating the sub
ject, and finds the great cause to be the
widespread habit of gum chewing. This
is more prevalent among young women
than men, because the latter use tobac-
co. The conclusions of the New York
authority are that the more immediate
effects of gum chewing are dyspepsia,
wrinkles and torpid liver, and eventual
impairment of the eyesight. He eX-
plains the operation in this way:
The muscles of the jaw connect with the
spine, and from the spine there are little
fibrous tissues running in all directions. A
number of these extend to the eyes and are
called the optic nerves. Now, if you will
watch person eating you will notice a pal
pitation of the temples when the lower jaw
moves up and down in the process Of masti-
cation. This is caused by the working Of
the optic nerves, which keep the inner part
of the eye in motion and exercise the nerves
as much as is needed to keep them in
healthy condition. These nerves are more
tender and sensitive to a degree than you
would imagine. When they are overworked
they become shrunken and enfeebled, and
then the process of deterioration in the eye
sight begins. OF course the shrinking Of the
nerve draws the eye back into the socket,
and as it is connected by slender threads Of
tissue to the pupil of the eye, this also be-
comes affected. The consequence is that
the eye becomes weak and loses its color; it
becomes an mountaineering gray, and the
vision is so much impaired by it that eye
glasses must be resorted to.
1t will not be quite legitimate to con-
clude that every young person met
wearing glasses is victim of the gum
habit, but it may be humbly appre-
hended that the bright young lady, of
any age, noted upon the street vigor-
ously masticating the gum with her jaws,
is becoming an eligible candidate for
dyspepsia, premature wrinkles and at
least partial loss of eyesight.

Mrs. Pascal Smiths good deeds have
been those of charity far-reachlng.
When st. Paul was somewhat smaller

an attention and care such as must have

A third edition is printing of Thomas
Nelson Pages first story for the young,
Two Little Confederates.
Early in January Bedford, Clarke &
Co. will issue Edgar Fawcett's new
novel, Miriam Balestrier, in book form.
That gossipy book, The Five Talents

Happy Though Married, has gone into
its second edition.
A new portrait of Mrs. Mary Mapes
Dodge, with a sketch of her literary
career and methods of work, will appear
in the January Book Buyer.
Mr.. Gladstone and Lord Randolph
Churchill recently purchased over fifty
copies of Little Lord Fauntleroy" for
presents among their youthful friends.
Edgar Saltus has given to Lippincott's
his latest novel. It was originally Of
tered to Belfords, but Mr.. SaltuS diff
fered with the management of that
magazine about certain criticisms of its
editor on his writings, and so concluded
to change publishers.
A four-page supplement to the num-
Der of Harper's Weekly issued Jan. 2
contains paper by S. Bayard bod on
the evolution of the modern ferryboat
from the canoes of over two centuries
ago on the North and East rivers. The
text is deliberately illustrated with
drawings by Fred S. Cozzens and
others.
In the number of Harper's Young
People, issued Jan. 2, Mrs. Burton n.
Harrison takes up an account of ex-

AT the recent dinner in London given
to the contributors of the Encyclopedia
Britannica, the interesting fact came
out that of the $4,000 copies sold of the
work, 10000 went to the United States.
The Americans, therefore. have bought
four times as many copies of the en-
cyclop@dia as the English themselves
have, although the work is of English
conception and publications. This
country has thus absorbed a million
quarto volumes of this work.

No OLD almanacs have been discov-

that the world will be wound up or melt

There is, however, somewhat noted
prophecy of JOHN BOYLE O'REILLY
among the records of years past that in
1889 Ireland will secure home rule. The
indications are not quite strong enough
to anticipate that desired consum-
nation within the specified time, but
the progress making in that direction is
marked, and O'REILLY may not prove
very far out of time.

CONTRACT PRISON LABOR.

1t is surprising that the board of in
spectors of the state prison, after care
full investigation of the subject, should
report in favor of a return to contract
prison labor. In brief, their conclusions
are:
Gin regard to the question Of what
shall be done with the convict labor, no
special interest should be allowed to In
terfere with the public good.
Exaggerated estimates of the effect OF
this labor CONTRACT On free labor have
seriously interfered with the making of
contracts in other states"
What the general public will take
issue with the board on is their recon-
mendation that the contractors be in
dividuals disconnected with the state.
Minnesota and other states have ex-
perienced the benefits and evils OF such
plan, with the result of educating
public sentiment against it. The only
contractor for this labor should be the
state itself, and the labor performed
can we'll be confined to industries whose
products enter the least into competition
with free labor, and yet which can yield
fair return to the state.
The object of prison labor must be to
open avenues for criminals to demon
strate their willingness to reform, to
fit them with trades by which they may
become useful citizens when released,
and to reimburse the state in part or
whole for the burden imposed upon it.
The system of contracting the labor OF
the prison inmates to outside indl-
viduals is opposed for the opportunities
to commit fra I'D it offers, and the tend
ency of the system to be purely specu-
lative, a destruction of the moral lesson
to be taught necessarily following. The
state cannot, in justice to humanity,
consider itself merely financial agent
in it's relations to confined criminals.
There is a moral responsibility far
greater than this.
When the state recognizes that this is
so, public sentiment will sustain it in
any right effort that 1t may put forth to
give occupation to the criminal. The
opposition to contract prison labor has
been so widespread that it must be
recognized as popular opinion. and
popular opinions are usually correct.
In Minnesota it is quite evident that it
will oppose any return to the old con-
tracing system.
