Pick Up That Pin.

Oh. know a certain woman, who is reckoned
with the good,
But she fills me WITH more terror than raging
lion would

when er we meet,
Though she seems gentle creature, and she's
very trim and neat.
And she has thousand virtues and not one &C.
Knowledged sin,
And she is the sort of person you could liken to
a pin,
And she pricks you, and she sticks you. in way
that can't be said
When you seek for what has hurt you, why, you
cannot find the head.
She is wonderfully observing-when she meets a
pretty girl
She is always sure to tell her if her bang is
out OF curl
And she's so sympathetic; to her friend, who's
much admired.
She is often heard remarking: Dear, you look
so worn and tired"
And she is a careful critic; for on yesterday she
eyed
The new dress was airing with a woman's
natural pride,
And she said: oh how becoming" and then
softly added 1T
Is really misfortune that the basque is such a
I fit"
Then she said, eff you had heard me yester-eve,
I'm sure, my friend,
| You would say l am a champion who knows
how TO defend"
And she left me with the feeling-most unpleas-
ant, aver
That the whole world would despise me, if it had
| not been for her.

A Woman Suggested for Judge.


One Of the many absurdities that line the
political pathway at short intervals was
the presentation of petition 10 President
Harrison Monday. in which the "Wage-
Workers Political AlIiancen-whatever
that may be-of Washington requests that
Elizabeth Cady Stanton be nominated for
the seat on the supreme bench made vacant
by the death Of Justice Miller In support
Of that modest request the aforesaid
impressive organization proceeds to
argue the point In this unanswerable
fashion: "In view Of the fact that va
cancy exists in the supreme court; and in
view of the fact tnat the second object of
government is TO establish justice, as may be
seen in the preamble of the national consti-
tuition; and in view of the fact that the
practice Of the supreme court for the past
100 years has been TO stand by its decisions,
whether just or unjust; and in view of the
fact that women whose minds are free from
creeds, as well as loyal to truth. justice and
humanity, are better Judges than men
under the same circumstances How much
Of law or experience Mrs. Stanton may have
accumulated, or why they happen to suspect
that she would make "better judge than a
man under the same circumstances" is not
fully disclosed. Hence. her chances of being
called Judge Stanton aud confiDing herself
to blacks gowns are, at the present writing,
not very bright.

Previous to the opening of the show the

Forty were chosen out of the lot, all perfect
specimens of their race, and it seemed as If the
mission was fulfilled. Notso, however, for that
night riot took place and the disappointed ap-
plcants for Thespian honors killed no less than
four of their lucky brethren. Next day another
review was held and more were CHOSEN, and so
1t continued for a week until the Londoners sue
ceeded in moving their caravan away. Nor
was the trouble over yet. A chief Of the crowd
had been selected by the employers. His sub
jects rebelled against him and came very near
throwing him OFT the ship on the return voy-
age. The wild east people were in despair until
q mighty mini in the person of
the press agent of the concern solved the
difficulty. He summoned the Arabs before him
and thus addressed them: ''All OF you fellows
want to run the show as chief But you must
know, heathens as you are, that we can't have
forty chiefs in the play Now sit down and

the camp was as quiet as Philadelphia Sunday
and harmony was restored forever. Besides,
the Londoners never learned the difference.

Ladies travelling alone have little chance
Of being admitted to hotels in New York.
But, of course, appearances count, and the
hotel clerk is usually pretty fair judge of
human nature. Still the slightest symptoms
of giddiness suffice 10 tura her away. Yet
such estimates are not always correct and
sometimes do great injustice. Therefore il
seems perfectly proper to inquire by what
right public hotel may turn away a woman
just because she is q woman, when the law
forbids one TO turn away negro simply be-
cause he is negro. Has not woman the
same rights that negro may claim? II
she has she can only be turned away be-
cause of an imputation against her char
acter. And that is rather dangerous
charge to make against a stranger.

Theories and Taxes.

Nothing that has occurred within the past
fifty years more strikinglv illustrates the
sleepy lethargy Of the American people
when their most vital Interests are N
jeopardy than the passage Of the recent
tariff bill Though it had been abstrsctly
discussed for the past SIX months n toe pub
lie press and IN congress, the taxpayers,
who are to be most directly aud cisastrously
affected by It, seemed quite incapable
Of arousing themselves 70 a Gear appre-
hensiOn Of its full import. Much OF this
apathetic indifference was due, Of course.
TO the technical manner in which such
measures are usually discussed To the
average reader il might as well Be written

lack Of active interest, but the salient points
of the bill were finally rendered
sufficiently clear to make plain 70
any unimpairsi understanding the
palpabls injustice and oppressive tendency
Of its ultimate effect Still nobody did any
thing in particular about it. and it was al
lowed to be fixed upon the country fer the
next year, at least. without the faintest real

RAISING and Intolerab.e burden it is likely

Oysters are said to be a rank failure in
the Chesapeake bay this season. All the
dredgers bring in gloomy reports Though
the season has just begun they say that the
oysters are nearly all dead" and very
scarce at that. What has killed them is
not known. Unless the lower part of tine
bay yields good crop oysters are going to
be very scarce this winter all through the
eastern country. Usually the Chesapeake
bay yields from 100000 to 10000, 900
bushels. AS yet no complaint of scarcity is
heard here. and with our vast scope of ter
ritory we may be able to supply the defici-
ency there and thus give an impetus to this
newly developed local industry.
