Mr. Malone RePents the Story Of tho Az
sRult on Hin In the Park.
The complaint Of assault made by Edwardv.

Aneurin Jones, the Superintendent OF Parks
In Brooklyn, was Investigated BY the Park
Commissioners in that city yesterday. Mr..

President Brewer, who seemed inclined to SUBJ

papers about Mr.. Jones's assault after he had
visited the office Of the Board with o formal
complaint. and found It closed. II did not
think It would make any material difference

Goldfish and Bayonets.

We do not desire to add to the present
cark OF the venerable FRIsBIE HoAR, but In
formation from him is desirable.
Apparently Senator HoAB still regards tho
Federal Elections bill as a moro important
Republican measure than the Tariff bill.
Just fortnight ago he was reported as de-
claring in q carefully studied speech which
he delivered in the Senate caucus:
while favor passing the Tariff bill sooner than
that this Congress should the Federal Elections
bill would prefer to sce every manufacturing estab
iishment in MassAehusetts burned TO ashes and the
people OF that State required TO labor In eanEs In
which they would not make more than nfty cents per
day and be reduced to live on Goldfish"
Nobody doubts the willingness Of this
venerable philanthropist to sacrifice the
manufactures and the appetites Of other
people to the success OF the infamous bill on
which he Is counting for his future political
fortunes; but has he received from his con-
stituents any instructions to pledge their
workshops and dinners as above?
Has he authority to represent the mill
owners Of Massachusetts in this matter ?
Are they willing to see their mills burned to
ashes rather than that this Congress should
not pass the LoDGE-HoAB bill2
How about the Massachusetts, fire insur-
ance companies Are they willing to pay
the losses after a general confagration
rather than that the venerable HoAR should
be made ridiculous2
How about the artisans and mechanics Of
the Bay State? For the sake Of Mr.. HoAR's
bill are they prepared to restrict themselves
and their families to Goldfish diet In Massa-
chusetts, while the Senator continues to
stow away terrapin?
The old gentleman is humbug. Not he
but Senator Quay represents the real senti-
ment Of the Massachusetts Republicans con-
cerning the Force bill.

Of which he dleapproved. To make them
say, on the other hand, everything ho
wished, he had recourse TO other agencies.
OflcIal advertisements, for example. were
distributed with q nice regard to the degree
ofsubserviency exhibited by given journal.
This instrument Of propitiation. however. Is
inadequate, as BISMARCK learned when he
ives Prime Minister between 1852 and 1885,
and found almost every German newspaper
arTayed against him. Accordingly, after
tho war with Austria, BfsMARoK took care
TO provide himself with moro considerable
resources. 1t will DO remembered that
when the late King OF Hanover aed from his
capital in 1896 he took with him State bonds
to the amount Of 25,00O.00O thalers. Sub
seQuently. through the mediation OF Eng
land, these bonds were returned In consid-
Grafton OF an agreement by Prussia to pay
the ex-King an annual revenue OF about
10000 thalors. No sooner. however, we're
the bonds In the Prusslan Treasury
than BISMARCK, on the preteXt that
a HRnoverian legion was forming in
France, induced the Reichstag to pass
law Withholding the promised rev.
enue and placing It at the disposal OF the
Chancellor for secret service money. This
revenue, the so-called GUELPH fund, was
almost entirely applied to the corruption OF
the press. It was expended In two ways.
The more influential among the purchasable
papers such as the North German Gazette,
the Cologne Gazette, the Berlin Post, and the
Hamburger Nachrichien, were paid in cash.
The smaller reptile" papers received their
leading articles, correspondence. and even
their Jeuiiletons ready made from q central
press bureau in Berlin.
The wonder is, that With such an arsenal
OF weapons Of corruption and coercion at
BIsMARcKs disposal. the whole newspaper
press OF Germany did not succumb. AS a
matter Of fact, however. the Progressist
and Ultramontane newspapers managed to
maintain their independence and are now
reaplng their reward in a remarkable in
crease Of influence and circulation. The
reptile press, on the other hand, having no
longer anything to hope for from the ex-
Chancellor, are Kissing and singing him
with the malign activity which they formerly
displayed against his enemies and victims.

The Woes of the Windy City.

Ever since Chicago was selected as the site
for the Worlds Fair all patriotic Americans,
whatever may have been their previous pref
erences as to the locality. have been united
in the desire that the Fair should be success
ful. 1t is with regret, therefore, rather than
with any enviouS sense OF satisfaction, that
the people OF other cities learn OF the difficult
ties which have arisen in the management
OF the great enterprise. AS we understand
it, the plan is to divide the exhibition into
two parts. One of the sites is to be on the
lake front and the other in Jackson Park,
several miles distant. Mr. FREDERIC
LAW OLMsTEAD, than whom there can
be no more competent authority has
just examined the jackson Park site and
he declares that it ls unsuitable for live
stock exhibition or for showing agricultural
implements In operation. The park is
swampy. and only one hundred and twelve
acres OF floor space can be utilized there for
buildings without interference with the per-
manent plans OF tho park authorities. Mr..
OLMsTEAD, however, is Of the opinion that
jackson Park would be a satisfactory site
fog machinery hall and Tor the main ex-
hibltion building. But the impression
created BY his report in Chicago appears to
be that it goes very far toward dem
onstrating the unsuitability OF the Jackson
Park site as a whole.
Trouble has also arisen between the nli-
noIs Central Railroad and the Worlds Fair
Directory In regard TO the lake site. 1t
seems that the railroad company has some
claim in respect TO this site which Is now In
litigation, and that 1t has refused to agree to
reimburse the directors for moRey expended
In making ground on the lake front in the
event OF decision in tho company's favor
1t Is fair to say, however. that Mr.. 6TUYvE-
SAINT FISH, the President OF the Illinois
Central. declares that the railroad corpora
ton is ready to meet tho Worlds Fair au-
thorieIes half way whenever they make any
reasonable proposition.
Another perplexity which further besets
tho Worlds Fair Commission Is the protest
OF largo number OF Chicago workinRlnen
against the appointment on the Board OF
Directors Of gentleman who Is described
as I" brother-in-lRw of BILLY PRKEBToN.

He Wants to Write a Good style.

This is an old, old question, and 1t is
oitener put to us than any other; but it is
important and is worth answering many
times, and especially at this season OF the
year. when fresh graduates from colleges are
thinking about turning their requirements
to practical service in newspaper writing:
What would you advise me TO do to acquire good
style In newspaper wEitingi"
You must begin. young man, by learning
to think clearly. That Is the first great
requisite for a good style In newspaper
writing, or any other writing. Lucidity
perspicuity, are the prime essentials, II the
thought is worth written expression. You
must not impose on the reader the task Of
disentangling your thoughts and Rropipg
about to find your meaning, but do that job
yourself beforehand. If you can write at
all, you will have no trouble 10 making clear
to other minds whatsoever Is sharply defined
in your own mind.
The truth of this is enforced on us con-
stantly by the correspondence which comes
to THE sun from all sorts of men. The
most uneducated express themselves with
admirable clearness when they know ex-
actly what they want to say, and keep
"lIuln Iue lllllIhIlOHS OI buelT precise
thought, and the best educated founder
about helplessly when they do other wise
and seek to make q vain display OF literary
dexterity.
People who would write we'll enough il
their sole object was to elucidate their sub
ject, will spoil it all In the effort to show
themselves off. That is great vice OF the
writing Of very many Of the clever young
fellows OF this period. They are too self
conscious and too eager to provoke atten.
ton to their cleverness. All that is as bad
In literary style as it Is in social manners.
Showing of is vulgar.
Hence young man, II you want to acquire
good literary style. think about what you
are writing, and not about yourself and the
sort Of figure you are going to cut In the
eyes OF your readers. II you are really a
writer OF consequence. your style will suf-
ficiently express your individuality without
any conscious effort on your part to obtrude
yourself.
Reading the masters Of literature is neces-
eary for you. not to get models for imita-
ton. but to cultivate your taste and famil-
iarize you with perfect literary form. No
knowledge and no information will go amiss
II you are newspaper writer. The wider
your range OF learning the better 1t will be
for you, SO long as the knowledge is sound
and not mere smattering.
Finally. you must be great man II you
are going to write great style.
