POPULAR IMAGE WORSHIP.
A Species of SelT-DevOtIon as old as the
 Human Race Itself.

A Species of Self Devotion as old as the
 Human Race Itself.
 Although the worship of images is forbidden in the Decalogue, vain and pretty women friH idolize the counter felt presentments of their fair faces and dainty figures as reflected from their bookings As far as one can judge from history, the sex has always had a weakness for thls species of self-devo- tion. When Eve made her first appear ance on the worlds stage she was, of course, mirrorless; but probably her womanly instinct soon led her to some sheltered. shaded pool, whose stirless surface flashed back her radiant loveli- ness, and gave her full assurance that Adams admiration of her charms was not unmerited. Be that as it may, it is certain that her daughters were very much in love with their own reflections Q couple of thousand years before the commencement of the Christian era. So much so, in fact that the Hebrew maids and matrons managed to take their metal mirrors with them when they went into the Wilderness, and would, doubtless, have brought them back to Jerusalem, after the captivity, had not an ungallant architect named Bazaleel seized them on the road, put them in the melting-pot and made a huge wash basin out of them for his tabernacle.
 Modern archeolOgists, while scratch ing among the de6ris of ancient Egypt, have found sun1ry re6ectors composed of an alloy of tin and copper, some of which, when the rust of three thousa nd years was rubbed of their disks, proved to be decidedly better articles than many of the cheap, quicksilvered face-distorters of the present day. Nothing less, however, than spheres of polished silver would serve the turn of the sumptuous danes of Old Rome, when they wished to see themselves as others saw them, and even Christian ladies in the early ages seem to have been much tempted of Satan in the matter of mirrors, and to have practiced self-idolatry on an expensive plan. St. Chrysostom pitches into them, like a Pilgrim Father, upon this delicate sub ject.
 The maid servants, he says In one of his sermons, must be continually importupfng the silversmith to know whether their ladys mirror be ready. Since the commencement of the glacial period" in the history of re- flection-in other words, since looking glasses came in-personal vanity has been enabled to indulge itself at more moderate cost than formerly, and its votaries have not let their opportuni- ties pass unimproved. Nor has this ''image worship" been confined exclu- sively to the ladies. There are and a1- ways have been thousands of male cox combs in the world just as ready to adore their own images as any pretty | girl ever was. and that too withoatany such good excuse for idolatry as every comedy woman sees when she 'Iooks in the glass. "-N. Y. Ledger.

GERMAN SOCIALISTS
The Halle Congress FaVors a
 Peaceful Revolution.
AN IMPORTANT VOTE TAKEN.
They Will Obtain Their Objects Only
 Through Parliamentary Methods.

A RumOr that O'Brien and Dillon Are on Their Way to ROme-The O'NTahOny Case DIsmissOd-suakim to be Att tacked-AmerIcan Consuls Explaining the Contract Labor Law.
 HALLE, Got. 15-In the Socia1istio Congress an exciting discussion took place between the Liberals and Ex- tremists, in which the former proved in the majority. Herr Singer advo- catsd agitation by parliamentary methods, and denounced those who proposed to achieve the aims of Socialism with weapons.
 The Congress finally voted e resolu- tion in favor of Herr Singers views, much to the disappointment of the more violent element of the party. The feeling against Herr Werner, who is accused of insincerity, and of being Q Socialist for revenue only, is grow ing, and it appears certain that he will not be permitted to remain in the Congress.
 It was agreed by the Congress to Ap- point a committee to investigate the question at issue between the Parlia- mentary leaders of the Socialist party and the Berlin dissidents. No member of the Reichstag representing Berlin, or any delegate deputed by the Social ists ot Berlin, will be appointed on the committee.
 The action of the Socialist members of the Reichstag in discounte ncina a general cessation of work on las May day, was indorsed unanimously, as was their policy regarding the sec ond ballots following ths last general election for member of the Reiohstag.

AN EPIDEMIC OF SUICIDES.
Paris Mortified Over the Large Numbe
 Reported Daily in That City.

Paris Mortified Over the Large Number
 Reported Daily in That City.
 PARIS, Oct. 15.-The city is mortified at what seems to be 6 suicide epidemic. For some time past as many as twelve to eighteen suicides have been reported daily. In the Rue Berthe, woman suffering from a nervous affection swallowed a quantity of tinoture of iodine. A diamond merchant named Cohen, in the Rue Msubeuge, blew out his brains. Another man of about 50 committed suicide on the Rue St. Martin in @ similar manner.
 In the Rue Des Hanlets a man hanged himself. He left behind him a paper, on which the following words were written: "No work, no bread; not eaten anything two days. Enough of this. En route for the turnip field"
 Starvation also induced @ widow in the Rue Palikao to suffocate herself and her daughter, a girl of IS, by means of char coal. Two young women were found drowned in the Seine.
 An individual in the Rue Des Eyre nees poisoned himself with laudanum.
 This epidemic seems to be @ regular thing at the commencement of the spring and autumn. Last April the Morgue was often filled to over6owing. Statistics show that drowning seems to be the fornfof death most frequently selected in spring. while preference is given to charcoal in the autumn.

At the hour named Mahoney returned to his home In an apparently intoxicated condition. His wife was awaiting his return, and he at once commenced to abuse her.
 After words had been exchanged, Mahoney picked up pitcher and made a savage blow at his wifo's head. She dodged and called for her brother, Michael Mclaughlin, to protect her. Mclaughlin responded to his sisters appeal for aid, and grappled with Ma honey. The infuriated husband was getting the best of Mclaughlin, when the latter seized the breAd-knife from the table and made vicious lunge at his antagonist.
 At this juncture James MoCann, an inmate of the house, stepped between the two mon and the thrust that was intended for MAhoney was received by him. The knife entered his back and inflicted a dangerous cut. Mc- Laughlin followed his assault with the knife, and MAhonSy received stab in the left breast directly over the heart. The wounded men were removed to the hospital whore the physioiAns' report Mahoney's wound dangerous, and likely to result fatally. Mclaughlin fed and has not yet been captured.

THE republicans are circulating as a campaign document a list of bills in congress headed with the explanation that "These are among tke bills passed Of the fifteen items in the list eight are false ; seven of the eighth are bills that were not passed at the late session of congress, but were left hanging up on the calenders ; the eight fradulent item is s"Obstruction Knocked Out :" this is certainly not bill passed, and as to the alleged fact we are surprised to see the republicans putting forward any such claim. The session, which has just closed, is the longest with single ex- ception in the history of congress, and the republicans are trying to represent that the cause of it's unreasonable dura- tion was democratic obstruction.

THE most prominent features of the late session of congress were the mouths of Kennedy, Cannon and Quay.
