WHY THEY DO NOT MARRY.

The San Francisco Visitor is rather an
obscure paper, but it has at least the cour-
age TO discuss question that the majority
of papers evade and fear to handle, pre-
ferring to drift with the current that is
sweeping down true womanhood and in
vesting the young women of the day with
a masculinity that, at its best, is not pro-
motive of their welfare. The Visitor says:
The Sacramento REooRp-UNIoN thinks the
falling off in the number of children shown by
the school census in san Francisco is due to
the fact that marriage is much discouraged by
the present system of having women enter ali
kinds of business" and thinks that the encour-
aging OF women To enter business walks unsexes
them and discourages collaborating. The Cap
ital city paper, however. fails TO point out the
remedy. The reason women do not marry, but
SEEK means Of Independently supporting them.
selves is that men who would make good hus-
bands and provide good homes donot ask them.

THE TWO BROTHERS.

In Palestine, long years ago
So runs the legend old,
Where kedron's sparkling waters flow
Across their sands of gold,
And Mount Moriah lifts his head
Above the sunny plain,
Two brothers owned-as one-'tis said
A field OF golden grain.
And when the autumn days had come.
And all the shocks and sheaves
Stood waiting for the harvest home"
Among the withered leaves,
The elder brother said one night:
I'm stronger far than Saul,
Ny younger brother. lis but right
That | should give him all
These sheaves upon the plain
We own together, so
I'll put with his my stack of grain,
And he will never know"
Scarce had he left the sheaves of wheat.
When quietly there came
Across the field with stealthy feet,
On GRAND just the same,
The younger lad. who said: ~ see
My brother Simons need
Is greater far than mine, for he
Hath wife and child TO feed
And so to him I'll give my sheaves-
II is but right. / know;
And he will never think who leaves
These wheat-stacks on his row."
Next morning. when the brothers twain
Began TO count their store,
Behold. each found his stacks of grain
To number as beforei
"Why. how is this in great surprise
Each to himself then said:
"Tll watch to night TO see who tries
These tricks when I'm abed.r
And so, half way across the plain
They met-each one bent DER
With shocks and sheayes of golden grail
To swell his brothers store.
Good Saul and Simon. Would to-day
More brothers might be found
Who seek each others good Away,
And in kind deeds abound!

ALL the San Francisco journals are just
now busily engaged in denouncing the
slogging clubs and pointing out that their
example is of malign influence, and is
chargeable with the brutal contest which
resulted in the death of Mcbride. But
has it not occurred to our metropolitan
contemporaries that this has been true all
along, for two years past? That the ex-
ample of the clubs is no more pernicious
now than it was eighteen months or two
years ago? Can it be true that it required
the killing of Mcbride to awaken the press
OF the metropolis to consciousness of the
truth concerning the villainous character
of these finish" slogging contests?

son from Mr.. Halftone's, YEARLY The

Mary Beauchamp felt a ball rise in her
throat and the hot blood mounted to her
ears as she, too, had called him Algernon
only yesterday, and then she snatehed the
glittering ring from her finger and tram
pied it beneath her little foot. Of course
this was quite the correct thing to de
under the circumstances, but it did not
really hurt the ring, as the Turkey CARPET
was comfortably thick.

band. That is his knock" she said conf

expecting that his fiancee would rush into
his arms. He was totally unconscious OF
the presence of Mr.. Halftone's assistant

very coldly, permit me to introduce te

The young woman in black arose and

A CANADIAN journal OF prominence ad-
vises the Americans to '1get out their guns"
since as we are determined to seize sealeis
in Behring Sea, the Kanucks propose to
"polish up their firearms" All right !;
our people do not spoil for fight, but if it

is about war between the two nations of
all others that have most to conserve by
remaining in peace toward one another,
and most to lose in war.

CASTELAR,, in recent letter to the
Inter Ocean, says that Bismarck is himself
to blame for the present dangerous condi-
ton in Germany" 1t was he who bestowed
upon the Emperor's grandfather the title
of "Paternal Cesar of the People" 1t was
he who prosecuted all who entertained
even dream of the worth of democratic
institutions. That dangerous socialism
should develop from such a policy the
Spanish statesman thinks not at all sur
prising.

THE brewers and the yiticulturists of
California are wide apart in their views of
the Wilson original package bill. The
latter sent on dispatch the other day
advising the passage of the measure, hold
ing that allquestions of temperance should
be left to the States. The brewers now
forward a protest against the bill. The
latter probably fear limitation of their
business under local option practice while
the viticulturists prefer to take the chances
with the States, to having the temperance
question made national issue. Even in
the National Temperance Convention now
in session there is wide difference of
opinion also. Thus Rev. DIR. Carroll OPP
poses a Prohibition party national in char
acter, contending that the temperance
question is one to be fought out within
State lines, because prohibition is not
national issue, and cannot be made the
basis of living political party. Others
took the same position, but as vet the Con-
vention has not passed upon The question,
though there is large and strong element
holding that prohibition can be made
dominating national issue.

In New York, says the Union Signal,
there are 10000 children for whom no
school sittings are provided by the local
laws, and it asks, "What does this mean ?"
Why, it means that the authorities are too
busy parcelling out the spoils of office to
do their duty; it means that there are 90
GOO children running loose upon the
streets learning how to easily fill our pris-
ons and cut their neighbor's purses and
Threats. New York is marvelously

within her bounds, she has the capacity to
putlup and equip all the school-houses

does not do so is shame for which all

MISS MINNIE PALMER SCORES A sue
CESS IN ENGLAND.
What Lillian Russell Expects to do In
Europe" The Flying scud Cen
eral Stage Notes.

Miss Minnie Palmer's tour of the Brit
ish provinces is rapidly drawing to close,
and she will set sail for home some time
In June. The tour, which, by reason of
the failure of the hackers of the great
pantonlime at Her Majesty's Theater, was
hastily put together, has turned out very
probably indeed. But that is a matter of
course. Dainty Minnie Palmer is as great
favorite in England as she is in her own
country, and she never fails to attract big
audiences.
Recently Miss Palmer and Mr.. Rogers
have had some striking experiences of the
theory that accidents never come singly.
Mr.. Rogers was thrown from his horse
while ago and broke his lett shoulder, an
| event which still keeps him in bed. Since
then Miss Palmer has been in two carriage
smash-ups, which, although breaking NO
bones, have pretty badly shaken and
frightened her.
There are indications that Miss Palmer
will have royal welcome home when she
gets here. Her tour is splendidly laid out
by w. W. Randall, who is to handle he1
business this year. and she gets better
terms than ever before. Steam-tugs. brass
bands and enthusiastic friends galore will
meet little Minnie down the bay when she
sails past Sandy Hook.-N Y. Dramatic

Though the hour was late,

As much as TO say,

Tomorrow will soon be in town.

Ofthe warning. Indeed,
He seemed but 10 lengthen his call,
When all unawares
The window up stairs
Was struck and seemed ready to fall.

Quoth the youth, al will fly,
For that was hint, by the powers -
