SPEED VS.. QUALITY.

Mover Consider Fast-DOing of More Inn
pOrtance Than Well-Doing.
Many persons seem to think that
speed in work is higher accomplish
ment than quality of work. If speed is
of the first Importance, then it may be
an apology for poor quality. If quality
is of the first Importance, then it may
be an apology for want of speed. One
says: 81 want to learn to write fast"
Another says: II write this very
burriedly; please excuse erasures.'
Would such writers-or workers rather
be thought quick than accurate? Do
they place the writing above the writ
ten? Even a shorthand writer ought
not to write faster than he can write
we'll. Speed follows quality; quality
never follows speed. 1t is good thing
to do good work fast. But it is bad
thing to do fast work badly-and that is
the way it generally is done when the
fast-doing is held above the well-doing.
Bad work had better be done so slowly
that it never gets done at all The only
way to attain to high speed is to work for
something better th&n SPEEDS. s.

To Obtain Money Dashing Woman Mar
ries Pretty Girl
An extraordinary story, first published
by a Vienna newspaper and then gen.
orally disbelieved, has since been con-
firmed in every particular. "A young
man, calling himself Count Sander Way,
who pretended to have fallen out with
his family in Hungary, married last
August teacher at Klagenfurt, aged
twenty-seven, daughter of an Inspector
of Woods and Forests there. The mar
rage took place on a lonely farm in
Hungary, a certain Father Imre officia-
ting at the wedding ceremony
1.-THE newly-married couple lived to-
gether for some time, and afterward
visited the girls parents in Klagenfurt,
where the father-in-law was constantly
fleeced by the alleged Count. Quarrels
arose, and ultimately it turned out that
the young Counts tales OF himself were
all inventions. The persons he referred
to were imaginary, and the inspector
was convinced he was swindler. Some
thing still stranger, and indeed unpar-
alleled, soon came to light. Ere long it
was found that the so-called Count was
in reality, woman of thirty-six, the
Countess Sarolta Way, daughter of the
laus Way, one of whose daughters, named
Sarolta, had been educated as boy.
sAll her life she had worn male attire,
and recently had appeared in the uni
form of the Honveds. She published a
collection of poems under the name
Sander, and associated with young men,
who were not in the secret, in manly
amusements. From Pesth, where eccen-
tricities of that sort are hardly rarity,
she disappeared about year ago. after
which she was not again heard of till
her arrest, on the demand of her NOM
inal father-in-law, at Klagenfurt, 1t is
probable that Father Imre was not

TIE NEXT ENGLTSH SESSION.

The Conservative Government in England
has announced its programme for the next
session Of Parliament The TithcS and Land
Purchase bills, which have been successfully
blocked this year by the obstruction ma
noeuvres of the combined Opposition, are 20 be
introduced soon after the assembling of Parlla-
mont in November With the session opening
then in place OF February and with short holt
day seasons at Christmas. Easter and Whit
sun week, the Ministry hopes to be able to wear
out the energies Of the ObStmctiOni,tS before
midsummer of another year There is inheX
ibe English determination embodied in this
policy, and that always commands respect. Tho
measures which were practically defeated after
months of debate are to be taken up under con-
dtiOns favorable for their final passage The
Licensing Act for which Mr.. GOSChen was
mainly responsible, is not mentioned by Mr..
Smith in his forecast of the next session. Prob
ably ii is 10 he dropped altogether, as it has
serted to weaken the Government and 10 Gre
ate a strong hostile sentiment in the country.
The other measures arc ~ be pressed as projects
to which the Conservative Ministry is uncqliy
ocally committed; and Mr.. Bafour'S advice
another year will not be likely to be discarded
in favor of Mr.. GOsChon's ill-timed and i'm
practicable proposals.

appears that there was no chance of saving
the vessel. Nevertheless, a brave fight was

vessel was lying by close at hand, and from
that thew were soon transferred to the steam
ship which landed them at Dover yesterday.
