this court has tried 112 cases. What

cases have been disposed of with such
weighing by justice and equity that
there has scarcely been an occasion for
appeal. If every magistrate in the land
would so thoroughly know his business

be but little need of any higher court in

Our street Sprinkler.

A goodly own Is this OF ours
And people with a goodly thing;
From curb TO mounting steeple towers
We love and celebrate In song.
There came = plague upon the place.
A drouth. with ALI Its dust and heat:
NOR public cries, nor mayors mace,
Could cool the parched and blistered streets
The people could gaze on the brazen skies
With keenest trouble in their faces;
win sallow checks and sunken eyes.
Sadly they severally went to their places.
At length a sagely conclave met
And sent post haste a ummons round.
10 tell the people not to fret,
And call the wise men out of the town.
when In lengthen e~dconvocatlon
They resolved and reresolved;
won each others appreciation,
And with eclat wild dissolved.
They showed by knowing beck and nod
That they had been at wisdom's source.
And that the folks might thank their God.
The drouth was at Its very worse.
Nothing now their hopes to cloy,
outa I'll TOO full OF bliss to speak;
The eye Lit up with wonted Joy,
And smiles swan round the sailow cheek.
Inc smile.soon rippled in the laughter.
As each proud pal the other saw,
And soon, very soon. thereafter
Repined to the loud guffaw.
Twas happiness without alloy.
AS each his brothers back did beat.
They saw-the cause Of all this Joy
The sprinkler coming down the street.
Mistakes occur that never ought to,
The driver seized with sudden within
stopped the sprinkler and the water.
Because he thought they jeered at him,
But this was well, for soon a pull
E~nsconced 1t near the purling creek:
And now the people'sBoy is full,
For now 1t raineth every week.
No doubt the clouds when passing through
Are Jealous OF this mechanism;
the people praise when praise Is due,
Without dissent with a shcism.
Then when the waters purl along,
The stately sprinkler stands there still:
The admiration Of the throng,
The inspiration of my quill.

on Monday was a regular lovefeast. THE

crowded, standing room and all. Major

the republicans to meet at the courthouse,
displaying q ticket issued by w. G. An.
derson to a democrat for admission to,the
opera house as a Taylor delegate. He
then introduced Judge Butler, who made
the happiest hits of the campaign.
The judge. after abiding briefly to the
causes which led him into the race, said
he had received letters for over q year
from all over the district asking him to
run. He read a couple written by L. W.
Mclnturf, which brought down the house
In thunders Of applause and roars of
laughter. He then took up the charge of
his conspiring with the democrats and
showed how Taylor had approached o.

The shock of electricity that was to have

innocent calf and the poor animal died. Its
death, we are told in the dispatches, was appa-
rently instantaneous. There was only slight

righteous kick.-Chicago Tribune.

with calf proves that it would kill even the

GIVE THE OTHERS A CHANCE.

A special contributor, in an article pub
lished elsewhere, makes some criticisms on
the prevalent tendency of those having
charitable enterprises on hand to urge them
upon Mrs. Schenley or Mr.. Carnegie The
tendency is an evident one; and yet it is not
unnatural. Those who are seeking to ac-
complish some object for the public good
and need funds, are by a law of human ma
ture likely to apply first to those who have
a reputation for charitable generosity. The
magnificent donations of Mr.. Carnegie and
Mrs. Schenley have given them such rep
utation which human nature will inevita-
bly, seek to improve for the benefit of worthy
objects vet not provided for. The fact that
many such applications are made, is not
unfattering, though it may be inconven-
lent, testimonial to the munifcence of these
millionaires.
Nevertheless the suggestion is good one,
that charitable workers should take the
course of applying elsewhere than to Mr..
Carnegie and Mrs. Schenley. This is not
alone for the reason that they have done
their share. While no one will dispute
their right to make further gifts, good
deal may be said on that point. When Mr..
Carnegie's library project in Pittsburg is
added TO his gifts of the same sort in ad-
joining towns, no one will dispute that his
expenditures for the public benefit will be
an immense sum. Mrs. SchenIey's gifts
have already been extremely valuable; and
if the promise OF improving the Schenley
OF Ia hne
blocks is fulfilled, Pittsburg can credit to
her great aid in the advance of the city.
Certainly these two have done enough, and
if other wealthy people will do as well In
proportion, the charitable and public i'm
provements that would be possible are al
most boundless.
1t is for this reason that we urge that
charitable applications be made elsewhere
than to the two donors whose gifts have
been so famous during the past year. We
do not wish other people of wealth to be
neglected. There are several others OF large
means, and with even a surplus of wealth,
in Pittsburg; and it would be a grave mis-
take to let them gain the idea that Mr.. Car
negie and Mrs. Schenley have a monopoly
of public gifts. They have set a good ex-
ample. Mr.. Carnegie has especially inti-
mated that the institution which he is
going to found can be enriched by the gifts
of other wealthy people. Mrs. Schenley's
gifts have opportunities for similar bene-
factions, and there is an almost infinite
field in which our prosperous citizens car
show that they are not behind these e1-
amplars in the work of giving wisely and
freely.
There is public policy as we'll as good
taste and justice in the advice that the other
rich men Of Pittsburg should be urged to
contribute largely to charities and public
projects.
