Mr.. GLADSTONE boldly admits that the
overwhelming majority of the "educat-

his appeal to the Tory Householder

to urge that the general hostility of ed
ucated opinion against his proposal is
not a strong argument against it.

A Hanson Cab Incident.
From the London Daily Telegraph

FROM the London Daily Telegraph.
People little know what a terrible
power rests In the hands of hanson
cabman. They will realize it now when
they hear how sternly and it must be
added, how usefully it was applied in
the case of one William Jones. 1t ap-
pears that this person, who described
himself as commercial traveller, hired
a hanson and was driven about the
town for several hours. For certain
reasons the cabman suspected there
was something wrong about his fare.
So what did he do but let down the
front glass lights and keep them down,
thereby effectualIy imprisoning the
the valnly protesting traveller? He
then drove to the Peckham Police
Station and gave up his prisoner. He
had done wei, for William Jones
proved to be very bad character; in
III fact, an old and convicted burglar,
whose suspicious movements had lately
attracted the serious attention of the
police. Brought up yesterday at the
Lambert police court on the charge of
being drunk and disorderly, and, as a
person under police supervision, sup
posed to be getting his livelihood bv
dlshonest means, he was sent to prison
with hard labor for twelve months.
The hanson cab has thus figured. for
the first time in history, as thief tran,
1t is to be hoped that it's newly discoy-
cred and awful power will never be
employed at the expense of the inno-
cent.

When Hamilton Fish became secre-

Did Not Need the Car Ticket.
From the washington Star


A benevolent lady residing within
sound of st. Aloysius' bells was passing
through Judiciary Square last week
when her attention was attracted to
a wan-looking man sitting on one of the
benches. The vagrant winds blew
through his scanty hair, and like Cassius
he was apparently weary of the world.
The lady's kindly heart went out to this
lone man, and she spoke to him.
"Sir, you look tired. Allow me, at
least, to give you car-fare home," ex-
tending a nickel to him.
The old man looked quizzically at his
benefactor, then smiled, and quietly
said:
Il am very much obliged for your
am only waiting here for nv carriage .
And just then an elegant coupe drove
up and the object of her charity entered
it and drove away.

A Soldiers Idea of Fun"
From the Westchester pa Record.

From the Westchester Pa.) Record.
We have heard different versions of
what constituted fun, but we heard a
new one the other day from an old sol
dier. At Gettysburg, about the time of
Pickett's charge, the relator was sta
toned down toward the edge of the
wheat field, and he was sent out in
charge of squad to relieve the picket
in copse of woods. Meeting the SER
geant he was about to relieve, he asked
him what his orders were. He was in
formed, and among other things the
pickets were not to fire. why" said
the relieving sergeant, ''they are firing
right now. Why don't you stop
them?" ''Oh, we'll, they are just hav-
ing a little fun in there. The rebels
have got possession of stretch of stone
wall, and our boys swear they are GO
ing to take it away from them" Our
informant went in, and soon he and his
men were as deep in the "fun" as their
predecessors, Notwithstanding their or
ders not to fire. They kept it up, dodg-
ing behind trees and working around
the woods until they got a flank fire,
ran in on the stone wall and captured
it. They had their fun, and accom-
cOmplished their object

Yesterday by some spiritual manifesto

a plain pine affair with no chance Of con-
oealment of any apparatus which could
produce any unusual manifestations.
Placing his hands upon the table near
the center, and having all present remain
silent for a few moments, the gentleman
asked: Are there any spirits here2' A
distinct. ghostly sounding rap, made ap-
psrently upon the under side OF the table,
was the response. do the spirits who
are here know any of the persons who are
listening? Ii they do rap three times. -

a NEM a Jury.
1t is Ordered by the Court to Avoid
Future Inconvenience.

Owing to illness on the part OF
Judge Scott there was only a brief session
OF tho district court yesterday. The
judges indisposihon, however, was not
o%erious, and court will be resumed this
morning at 9 O'Clock.
A snag was struck at the very outset
when the court quashed the grand jury.
The constitution, it appears, provides that
until the legislature fixes the time of
holding the district courts the same shall
be fixed by the judges. The judges fixed
the time of holding the present term of
tho district court subsequent to the date
at which the county commissioners Sc
looted the grand jury panel. 1t was
thought hat on these grounds some seri-
Gus objection might be made to the find
ings of the grand jury, and rather than
take any chances on the subject the entire
panel was quashed.
A special venire vas at once issued and
made returnable at 9 O'Clock this morn
ing, at which time the court was ad-
iourned.
