PRopIoIous raw oysters have usually
been matched by men able and willing to
swallow them whole, but New Zealand
letter TO tho New York Times gives the
victory ut last to the oyster. In that part
of the world tho pearl oyster grows to a
size that would nppal tho stoutest of the
champion swallowers. 1t Is said that in
favorable situatlons--as In tho branches of
clean-g growing coral and whoro there Is
little or no sand to disturb then--they
often attain prodiglous size not infre-
quently measuring yard in diameter Of
their open valves. Sometimes dozen of
these are linked together, and IL they con
tain pearls are sure to have tho largest In
size, shapeliest in form, and purest in
lustre. Tho oysters which produce the
greatest number Of pearls, however, are
thick. stunted and deformed, which seems
to indicate that the formation of pearls is
due 10 somo disease in the animal.
Strangly enough, however, tho finest
pearls are oflen found in the healthiest
oysters. "
The logic of the above Is not
at all impressive. Thirty years ago
it might have been thus applied; the stu
dents that stand highest in our colleges
are physically weak, which seems to indi-
cate that development of brain is due to
some disease. Strangely enough, however,
tho finest minds arc often found in the
healthiest men. Attention to physical
training In our colleges has made plain the
fact that although learning and talents may
be found like pearls In stunted and weak
students, the finest minds and bodies dc,
velop naturally together and the resulting
man is far more pleasing spectacle and
more useful member OF society.

Bates on Removals.

That Is remarkable letter from Mr..
Bates to Mr.. Slaymaker, anent the let
ter-carricrs. Mr.. Bates says that the
carriers have never been removed save
for cause, and that Mr.. Slaymakcr
acted wisely In getting designations
from those he found In Office when he
became postmaster.
His successor may be expected to be
as wise, but the suggestion is that he
will not get the chance, since.the letter.
carriers, upon the strength Of the infor-
nation given by Mr.. Bates, will hardly
resign. Mr.. Slaymaker's wisdom was
supplemented by his luck and the other
fellows ignorance. Their heads dropped
into his basket upon his request, because
they thought he held knife that would
take them off anyway.
And perhaps Postmaster Grlcst may
find such q knife lying around. Mr..
Bates does not say how big the cause is
that will secure removal and 1t may be
that the scruplcs of the Washington
authorities may be satisfied by cause
that will be too small for observation,
save under their powerfully magnifyinl
spectacles and that non-resignine
letter-carriers may find themselves,
nevertheless shut out into the cold.

The Execution OF Wild.

John Theodore Wild, otherwise John
0reenwald, was hanged yesterday, for
the murder of Lyman S. Weeks, in
Brooklyn, several years ago, during the
perpetration of burglary. Wild
died declaring his innocence, and d.
Tected that on his tomb should be put
the inscription that he was murdered by
the law.
We gave attention TO the facts in the
eaae when it was tried, and reached the
-cQnclusion that the evidence entirely
fhiled to show that Greenwald was the
man who did the murder. We found
nothing In the facts to enable his declar-
alton Of his innocence to be denied
with any confidence, and we are strongly
pursuaded that he should not have been
executed for this crime. Doubtless his
general character as u law breaker de-
prived him of any sympathy from the
jury and made ii impossible for him to
have their guess verdict changed.
It IL somewhat remarkable fact that
the ordinary governor seems to have no
reluctance to sign death warrant, and
eonsigns murderer to the fate that
the law rewards him with little
concern. The ordinary governor is ap-
parently not troubled with softnessJ
aud sentiment. He Is the stern
executor Of the laws. And 1t Il
doubtless we'll. Emotions are not fgr
the laws servants. But when they are
entrusted with the pardoning power to
Domedy the laws mistakes, they are
eertairly required to give an intelligent
and laborious attention to the facts lead
ing 70 judgment, and. to arrest the laws
vengeance II they do not support it; as in
J ~ case Of Greenwald we are satisfied
they did not, and that he died innocent,
= be declared. Governor Hill thought
i 1t6brently and may have been wiser In
his eonclusion but We have never vet
lbund anything in his record that would
! josd u i,s - nde Of sour Judgment to his.

THE LIFE OF A TRAMP.

From the New York Sun.
The tramps begin to get back to winter
quarters towards the close of the political
campaign. Tho last of them are in by
election day. During presidential cam-
carrying torches and banners In the great
parades, and the tramps make 1t point to
get in earlier in those years. They get
from ifty cents to 81 night for this work,
and have a job every other night.
From election day until well In Decem-
Der is the happiest portion OF the tramps
city season. The weather Is apt TO average
rather moderate, the parks are still habit
able, and the results of his election day job,
properly economical, insure him against
going stark hungry, even when his sup
plies from ordinary sources run short.
Likewise they insure him his "booze."
What more pleasure could a tramp want
Nothing to do, nothing to think about,
enough to eat and TO drink-a lotus eater
could have no more.
As tho season advances the tramp's life
becomes less pleasant. The cold makes 1t
necessary for him TO remain under
shelter much of the time, and the ex-
hausted state OF his exchequer compels
him to get out and hustle for at least part
of each day. lie becomes at this time a
distinctly gregarious beast, and herds with
his kind In all sorts of dens. co-opera-
tive goOd fellowship quickly estaDllsnes

procured and shared in common by band
Of from four or Ave to dozen. In under

which alcohol is the least poisonous sub

| money will buy.

| door. From one saloon to another they
driit about during the day and in the even.

isn't a particularly enjoyable life even fol
tramps, and with the first zephyrs o

for the country again, with its open air ant

contingent of half-grown boys or broken
