There is Considerable Variation in the Diff
ferent States of the-Union
1t has been shown by recent statistics gath
cred by Mr.. j. j. Goodwin that women. as n
rule, live longer than men; also that the Hebrew
women are the longest lived of any race More
male children, too, die than female. OF sudden
deaths there are about 100 women, however. to
10 men. In Connecticut many women have
lived to be over 100 years old, while scores at
the age OF 80 are found in every town in the
State. In the State of New York the ayerape
life of woman appears to be As years. In
Maine the males outlive the females. while in
Massachusetts, it is the reverse, the average
among women being So, while among men it is
but AZ. In New Hampshire the men live the
longest In Vermont the men live on an aver
age to be 81, while the women average bnt 40
The women of Rhode Island live longer than
The men, and so they do in Pennsylvania The
average in New Jersey for women is but AZ
while Tor men it is 4S. In Delaware the women
ouInVe the men. The average duration of life
In virginia among men is AZ, while that among
women is 4S. In the Southern States there is
put little difference in the average between the
males and females, but the men as a rule live
longer than the women. In the Western States
the men live on an average three wears LONGER
than the women, and according to recent Sta
tistlcs this average is so years. The average for
both men and women in the Northwest is so
years.
Telegraph operators die sooner than those en-
gagged In any other profession, and men unem-
ployed live the longest. The average life of a
clerk is but "a years and this is also the average
among teachers. Machinists are outlived by
printers The average of the former being but 3S
years, while that of the latter is 49, Musicians

ropean nations. Thus it will be seen that the
reciprocity feature of the MCKINLEY bill means
nothing, as the Democrats and many Republi-
cans have said in discussing 1t. 1t will as
suredly prove dead letter unless Mr.. BLA1NE's
plan contemplates our assuming a sort of pro-

guaranteeing them against moestation by

fused commercial treaties equally favorable with
those we must obtain If reciprocity is to be

In Senator CARLIsLE's speech on the Tariff
bill he made the point against the reciprocity
feature that any nation which undertook to
make specially favorable treaties with US under
it would be compelled toruD the risk of imperil-
ing its good relations with other nations if it did
not grant them equally favorable treaties That
this ia precisely what would happen is already
shown by what has taken place in the case of
Spain and the West Indies The suggestion
that Spain should make specially favorable
reciprocity treaties with us in order to promote
increased trade between this country and Cuba
and Porto Rico has been met both in Spain and
England by the objection that Senator CARLISLE
suggested as likely. With no other portion of
America, it would seem, could we expect to in
crease our trade under feasible recip rocity
scheme more naturally and easily than with
the Spanish West Indies. Yet the first sugges-
tion of such move is met with objections APP
parently unanswerable, at least for the present

1t is altogether probable that in the capital of
no other civilized or half-civlized nation of the
world are the courts of justice more wretchedly
housed than right here in Washington, the capi-
tai OF what most of us regard as the greatest and
most enlightened nation on earth. There is fire.
quent complaint about the unhealthful and
cramped quarters in which the higher courts are
held, and illnesses from which some of the
learned judges from time to time suffer have
been imputed to the unsanitary surroundings in
which they are compelled to discharge their
duties The Police Court, however, has for
years been standing disgrace to Washington
and reproach to humanity in the character of
its accommodations for judge, counsel, wit
nesses, and prisoners alike. Externally it is an
offense to the eye; internally, especially during
the sessions of the court, it outrages all the
senses. 1t has been patched and repaired time
and again, but after each such process it seems
speedily to become, if anything worse than be-
fore At present it is undergoing repair TO an
extent that units it wholly for occupancy, so
that the judge and his court have become peri
patetics, establishing circuit of two stops at
police station-houses, where justice is dispensed
amid surroundings more suggestive of the comic
opera stage than Of real life in an enlightened
community. 1t is humilating spectacle, and
it is to be hoped it will stir public feeling to a
degree that will insure the speedy erection of a
decent and permanent home for the court.

1t is not likely the French government will
take serious ofense at the reception which has
been accorded the Count de Paris in this coun-
try. European diplomatists and statesmen are
aware OF the fact that the great majority of
American public men and officials know little
and care less about the bewildering complica-
tions OF foreign politics and the painfully nice
distinctions of foreign official usages in matters
OF this kind. Moreover, the French Republi-
cans must know as well as the English Royalists
how dearly and devotedly a large class of
Americans love lord, or anything bearing a
foreign title of nobility; and they will gener-
ously take this into consideration when making
up their minds about the reception here OF the
Count de Paris.

UE WON EY STRATEGY.

A quaint story is told about Master
Tommy Anderson, an old-tilne peda7
cague. Cmcc he taught Il school IL
Pennington where the boys had driv-:
en out several teachers. lie found
that the chief conspirator was a good
looking, grown-up girl, bright, saucy
and proud. The schooilnaster wore
his hair in a cue, as was the fashion
in those days When he was ''doing
Il SUM" with his head down, she toss
cd bis cue back and forth as if it were
Il toy, much to the amusement of the
scholars. Uncle Tommy said nothing
but kept up quite q thinking. He
knew If he called out the guilty girl
and punished her the big boys would
rise up and carry him out. So he
adopted unusual tactics in conducting
his campaign. He found a lot of long
hair hanging up i'll q barn. From
this he selected and smoothed out a
bunch resembling IL cue and tied it up
nicely with a ribbon. Taking this to
the schoolroom early the next morn
ing, he suspended it from the peg
where the girl always hung her cloak
and hood, then he commenced to set
copies as usual. When she came in
and spied the curious contrivancc she
looked surprised and puzzled. Quoth
Master Tommy in q mild tone of voice:
"Miss, have brought that bunch Of
hair for you to use as q plaything in
stead ofmy cue" The proud-spirited
girl was Inundated before the whole
school and could not help crying.
Uncle Tommy had won the victory by
stratagem rather than by force Of
arms, and had no further difficulty
with his scholars.

MARY ANDERSON AND HER
LOVER.

Louisville Commercial: That Mary
Anderson, "Our Marn," is going to
get married has been known for some
time, but the exact time of her mar
riage and where she would make her
home after marriage have heretofore
been matters for conjecture. Its not
known when her marriage will occur
and where she will live. A few days
ago a relatiye Of Miss Anderson re-
ceived letter from her, which gave q
description Of the man she was going
to make her better half. In it she
told Of the many pleasant days they
had spent together in the Leyant, and
acknowledge herself to be desperately
III love with her afIieianced. While
she acknowledged that he was not
good-looking, she clothed hisn with 50
many virtues that the good looks be-
came unnecessary. ANY one who read
that letter would have their opinions
changed concerning this woman; that
is, if they had the general public OPT
Mon which makes this beautiful queen
Of the stage a being Of marble, for it
shows the true, warm-hearted, loving
woman in every line. In this letter
she said that while the exact date Of
her marriage had not been determined
On, it would probably take place in
the early fall; that is, about the mid
die Of September or the first Of Octo-
Der. After the marriage she will go
to housekeeping in New York. A
house has been secured in Madison

will settle and live, no longer as ruler
Of the stage with thousands thrilling

THE FRENCH ARMY.

The latest comparison between the
armies Of France and Germany rInces
the former ahead numerically, while
the latter IS preparing to close the gap
with The aid Of the recent law.
France, on a peace footing has 52O,-
SIS men, and the law of five Years
service recently enacted permits her
to add G0o,000 men to her territorial
army. Other reforms increase the an
nual contingent by $4,000 men, and
this brings it up to 100000. By
counting the twenty-five contingents
under the law, with their total losses,
which are estimated at oGe-quartor,
the effective force for mobilization
amounts to 4,125, 600. In Germany
the annual contingent is 10000 re-
cruits, 5000 yearly volunteers and
1850 reserves, giving q total for this
contingent Of 190,450. For the *
contingents, and taking into account
the losses, we arrive at & grand total
on a war footing Of 100000 men.
Consequently, France could mobilize
at the present time 775,o00 trained
soldiers more than Germany-11Tiases-
