rAE PEOPLE KICK,

The majority of the people in re-
public are going to do pretty much as
they please to do. The idea that law
can inforco itself or that ii can be in
forced against majority, is not enter
tanned by men of well-balanced minds.
Neither is the idea that the expression
If a sentiment in statutes leads to tie
conversion of the majority IN favor of
that sentiment. The history of the de-
velopment of law shows that only such
laws are widely eilicacious as are the
expression of the Majority or at least
are not strongly opposed by any great
proportion Of the people. The officials
who attempt to enforce law that is OBJ
noxious to a large AMI influential num-
Der will inevitably be displaced, no
matter how admirable and moral the
law itself may be.
The attempt to enforce the Sunday
laws in Cincinnati is the cause Of the
Democratic gain of nearly $4,000 in
Hamilton county. More than half of
the Democratic gains were in the towns
Of Columbus, Dayton, Akron and Gin
cinnat. A majority of the voters of
Cincinnati were opposed TO the inforce-
ment Of the Sunday laws and took this
means OF protesting. That is all there
IS 10 the Ohio election.
Ii is equally clear that the sentiment
against prohibition is responsible for
The result in Iowa. A majority Of the
people Of that state were in favor of the
prohibition amendment, but they have
become dissatisfied with the operations

ferent persons since the law was passed.

Court pageants.

Paris has not witnessed any very
splendid pageant for more than TWEEN
ty years Parisians who remember
the display of Napoleon III when, in
1867, he was visited in turn by nearly
every crowned head in Europe, and
by at least one Asiatic potentate, can
find nothing that has taken place since
to equal it. France is republican, and
since the downfall of the empire has
become less ostentatious.
1t used to be the boast of Spain
that the court of Madrid was the only
great court of Europe. Madrid es sola
corte, the Spaniards used proudly to
declare III their musical tongue; but
the glories of the old Spanish court
have pretty much passed away. There
is still more stiff and rigid ceremo-
NAL, indeed, at the Madrid palace than
in any other, and host of royal SER
wants pass daily through II strict rou-
tine; but even coronations and royal
baptisms are performed with far less
brilliancy of ceremony than formerly.
Rome rarely witnesses n great royal
pageant, while it is deprived, to some
extent at least, of the stately parades
made by the pope and his cardinals
when he was the temporal ruler of the
Eternal City.
The German pageants of the modern
day are, for the most part, great mill
tary reviews and maneuvers, designed
to set forth the armed prowess of the
empire, and the same may be said of
those of the Austrian court.-Troy

Her Heavy FOOTBALLS.

A clever actor was playing the role
of the heavy william in an unsuccess-
full melodrama, and although the
house was half empty, he was working
as hard as he could at the only good
scene in the play. He had just finish
ed the consultation with the low COM
edy william, which occurs in all prop
erly conducted melodramas and had
spoken the cue for the heroine's en-
trance: Away! She comes! | hear
her footsteps" AS he made this
speech the property man accidentally
dropped sixteen pound shot down
the staircase which led to the dressing
rooms. There was succession of de-
liberate crashes, which somewhat re-
rembled tho footsteps of giant, and
the audience saw the ludicrous side of
the situation at once.
The actor stood rooted to the spot,
bursting with suppressed laughter
and not knowing what to do. The
leading lady was unfortunately some
what stout, and, on hearing the noise,
refused to make her entrance, vowing
that the whole thing had been ar
ranged for the purpose of insulting
her. Entreaties and threats had no eff
feet; she remained obdurate, and the
curtain had to be rung down and the
audience dismissed. The leading
lady" left the company the next morn

How Doctors Disagree.

How much do doctors know2 Not
much for certain, that is certain.
Else there would not be so much dis
agreement among them, not only in
diagnosing or attempting to cure dis
eases, but also in means for prevent
ing them. There is not an article
used by man for food, drink or raj
ment that has not been both recon-
mended and condemned by physicians,
frequently without consideration for
the varying natures and environment
of men. A few years ago there was a
great pother because OF the habit,
among both men and women, of hold
ing up certain articles of clothing by a
snugly fitting waist band, and all
sorts of contrivances were invented for
women, patterned after mems braces.
Now out comes an English doctor with
series of causes for consumption,
among which is this: braces are an
other curse of civilization-by suspend
