Is Ii not too bad, says Bishop Hunting
ton, in time when there Is SO much
fact % be learned, so much work 10 be
done. and done better than it Is, 50 much
wrong 10 be righted, 50 many burdens
wait 10 be eased, SO many noble enter
prises To be set forward, that ladies and
gentlemen of faculty and information
should array themselves sumptuOusly
and 20 TO meet each other again and
again, and stay together tor hours, only
20 look at a spectacle that is without sig
niticance and hear sounds without sense;
TO see unreal manners and hear COM
mOnplace speech; 10 exchange greetings
with the dearest friends only on a crowd
Cd staircase, as the two professions up
and down meet and pass, or in "a crush"
where the liveliest feeling is a fear of
damaging 4 fabric or being mortified By
a mistake; 10 eat and drink what could
be eaten and drank with far more COM
fort and safer digestion at home; to say
what one only half feels TO persons
whom one does not like on a subject
that one does not half understand; to
pick a way between frivolity and false
hood or wade through a muddy mixture
of both; to cover disgust with smile,
inward protest with spoken accent, or
weariness with jest, and then go away
at an unhealthy hour with nothing to
remember but a babble, whirl, a jam,
and a secret self contempt? "Horrid
bore, isn't it?" said one victim to another.
"Beastly," was the cordial answer.

The now liquor law Of the public acts
Of lss9 went into effect in September,
and It's enactment Is looked upon with
considerable distrust and dissatisfaction
by the judges. The new law Is in most
respects a rchash of the former one.
but there are some new and objection
able features IN it. Among other things
the law practically prevents the court
from exercising any discretion iu tho
lmpOs ton of punishment for violations
of the law. II saws that for violations
81 the law the fine inflicted shall not bee
less than $50 nor more than 5000. or the
offender may bc mpr sOucd not less than

the fine Inflicted the offender shall Pc

Here is wise thing said by some one:
at is an excellent thing for any person
TO realize the fact that the world is not
all contained within the limits of his own
horizon. An amusing instance of this
kind of mistake that is made by people
who are ignorant or forgetful Of this
simple fact is given in the recent expert
ence of lady traveller in Asia. One of
the Malay rajahs conided 10 her his will
ingness to learn English. But he said,
there is this objection to English, that it
is only spoken by dozen people in the
world, even counting the governor of
Singapore and his followers, while wher-
ever you gO-to the north, south, east or
west, or beyond the wind-yOu find Ma
lay spoken That Malay was right SO
far as his own horizon was concerned;
but what infinite horizons lay beyond
himl And what infinite horizons Of
truth lie behind many prim Anglo
Saxon, who mistakes his own little hori-
zon of personal knowledge for the bound
aries of Gods everlasting universe!'-

PECULIAR JlNGOISM NJ,

II is as plain as the nose on a mans
face that the sympathies OF the HARRI-
son administration are lot with the
Brazilian revoiutiOniSts, and that this
government does not propose to do any
thing that will contribute to the pelma-
nent establishment of the new repub-
lie. This is a source Of infinite mortifi-
cation to the American people, for, if
there is any country in the world that
ought to encourage the growth of re-
publics, il is ours; and, if there is any
spot of the whole world where republi-
can governments should be maintained
exclusively, the American continent is
the place. And yet, despite these facts,
our rational administration is giving
the cold shoulder to the Brazilian rev.
olutionists, and, at the same time, going
out of its way to express sympathy
for the deposed emperor. Why this
is being done is not so apparent.
President HARRISON is known TO be a
man of.aristocratic tendencies, and does
not permit himself to be swayed by SEN
timent. Personally he may not have
much sympathy with the men who. i'm
bued with the spirit of our freedom. are
trying to uproot monarchy in Brazil.
Yes, as the head of the nation. he ought
to realize the propriety as we'll as the
Importance of giving encouragement to
liberty-loving people in all parts of the
world. Still, we will do the president
the justice to say that he is not so much
responsible for our attitude toward the
Brazilian republic as is Mr.. BLAINE,
who has immediate charge of all for
eign matters. This is an instance
where Mr.. BLAINE is lamentably lack
ing in that jingoism of which he once
was supposed to possess surplus. Its
his misfortune to have weakened at a
critical period, and no less a misfor-
tune for himself than it is for the coun-
try. The men who dethroned Dom
PEDRO and drove the imperial family
out of Brazil find their new govern
mept tottering because 1t lacks the sup
port that it had a right to expect from

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Dec 1G.-The
differences between the factions in the
First Baptist church (colored} Of Kan
sas City, Kan, eliminated tonight in
a riot, in which two men were
dangerously injured and quite
number were seriously. The facti ons
were that one which sided with the pas
tor, Rev. j. Il. Jones, and another
which opposed him. A meeting of the
members of the church organization
met to select officers this evening.
The pastor presided. but the anti-JoDes
faction outnumbered the pastors sup
pOrters. Whenever motion hostile to
the pastors desires was made he would
call on some brother to pray. After
prayer the motion would be renewed
and the paster would again interrupt
the proceedings by calling for prayer.
He blOckaded business this way two
houls. Finally he called Oh &. ".
Smith to pray. The opposing faction
was enraged by this time, and when the
brother responded
SHOWER OF HYMN BOOKS
and chairs greeted him. Then followed
general riot. Razors were used, and
two negroes were seriously cut about
the head and body. Their names are
Benjamin. and Knight. Others
were pounded over the head
with chairs, but no dangerous
wounds were inflicted besides those
mentioned. The Jones faction finally
fled and left the church in possession of
their enemies. who Immediately Organ-
lied and elected officers according to
the plan, the carrying out of which the
Rev. Jones had interrupted by his novel

While il is a relief 10 know that the
Iury on the CRONIN case did find YER
diet. it is impossible to imagine now
more irrational or unsatisfactory verdict
could have been rendered. So far as
the defen l3ntS BEGGS and KUNzE are
concerned. there will be no complaint of
the finding in their case. The law and
the evidence entitled BEGGS to an ae-
uuittal, while the man KUNZE seemed
10 have been the unconscious dupe of
the shrewder scoundrelS who used him.
But when we 20 through the evidence
against the three principals, BURKE,
CoUGHLIN and SULLIVAN. we fail to
understand how Chicago jury could
mete out the death punishment to the
anarchists. where murder was rather Il
incident than purpose, and then with
hold it from the slayerS of DR.. CRoNIN,
whose murder was the most brutal
crime that has yet disgraced our Ameri-
can criminal records. These three men
were either guilty or not guilty. If
the jury adjUdged them to be guilty
beyond all reasonable doubt, then there
was not 4 single eXtenuating circum-
stance TO protect them from the eX-
1remest penalty of the law. The crime
was of the feulest character, deliber-
ateIy planned, and committed with
malice afOreth0ught. Every detail for
the commission of the crime was care
fully prearranged. and the murder was
perpetrated with a fiendishness almost
without parallel. 1t is possibly true
that the eleven men who were orig
inally for conviction agreed to COM
mutation of the sentence IN order to win
over the one obstinate juror, who hela
out against the law and the evidence
and the honest judgment of wiser men
than himself. If this theory be true.
then it is another eXemplification of the
Iamentabe failure OF our jury system,
which permits one man to bulldnZe
eleven into an act of injustice.
The spirit and letter of the law
have not only been violated by
verdict which found anything
short of death on the gallOws as fitting
punishment for the murderers of DR..
CRoNIN. but grave injustice has been
done to the people Of Chicago, and, in
fact, of the whole state of Illinois. As
long as these men are in state prison
the same influences which have been at
work to save their necks will be as act
lively eXerted TO get them outOf the pen
itentiary. 1t will be perpetual issue
in Chicago and in Illinois politics until
they die or are released. So we say if
they are guilty they should be hung. If
they were innocent, or if there was
reasonable doubt of their guilt, they
should have been acquitted. Those
who have carefully followed the pro-
ceedingS of the trial will have no diff
Guilty in agreeing with the jury that
they were guilty. and even more than
that; for it is apparent that there are
others equally guilty and perhaps more
responsible, who have not yet been
