murderous intent against his wife, re-

be treated as such, but how?

GALVESTON is rapidly becoming a
sporting center. She had prize fight
some weeks ago, and now another is re-
ported-a sort Of Mitchell-Sullivan foot
race. The sort of prize fighting exhib-
tied there Is rather poor and dunghillish
but it will improve with time perhaps.
We should not be too critical at the out
set. but give the Sand Crabs a chance to
develop their best talents.

THE political situation in South Caro-
lima lie very much like that threatened in
this state just previous to the conven-
ton. The Palmetto Warwicks. defeated
in the convention, went out and locked
by themselves, invoking the genius of
Democracy to bless them, and the spiri t
of Jefferson to guide them in an unholy
alliance with negroes, Republican car
pet-baggers, and the fiotssm and ietsam
of corrupt political life in the state. We
had rather narrow escape in this state
from virtuous break of that sort.

ROMANCE AND LIFE.

There's an old-fashioned hammock that swings
meath the trees,
While the soft summer winds come and go.
It rocks all the day with the rhythmical breeze,
And sways to and fro, to and fro
It's tattered and torn, and it's faded and gray,
But each shred is more precious than gold;
For wTapt IN that hammock, Love whispered me
Yea"

A SHAME TO CIVILIZATION.

Dlsgraceful Injustice Done to the Working
Women of Massachusetts-It VIII NOT
Always he Thus.
About one-fifth of all males in Mas.
sachusettsl average less than 81 per day.
The females working at this low scale
of wages comprise r. "a per cent. of all
the workers. No intelligent reader will
fail TO realize what this fact means.
As the scale of wages rises the number
Of females enjoying them grows steadily
less. OF total of 1881 workers receiv-
ing $50 a week and over only 26S are
females The figures simply show that
in the employments in which the very
lowest wages are paid, women consti-
tute over 20 per cent. of the workers,
while in employments where as high as
$50 week are paid they constitute
hardly over per cent. In addition to
all this is the humiliating fact that in
the same occupation, standing side by
side with men, the females are paid less
wages for the same work; or, what
amounts to the same thing, woman OF
20 years or upwards is made to work
side by side with boy of 10 at the same
wages. Women are compelled, then, to
fill most of the cheap places, and paid
less wages for the same work at that.
We have no hesitation in saying
that this is an indefensible injus-
'ice. and one so gross as to shame civil
ika,ion. Why do Legislators sit passive
ly under such discrimination of sex in
the matter of work and wages? Simply
because they know that the women car
ry no votes, and that mere sentiment,
however just, can neither seat nor un-
seat politician. But it will not al
ways be thuS-Boston Globe.
