A JUDGES PERIL.-Yesterday evening
Judge Thomas NJ. Cooley, of Ann Atbor,
Mich, chairman of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, was sitting reading In hia libra
~ when his negro cosohman armed with a
double barrelled shotgun, entered. The
Judge was satisfied from his appearance that
he had become insane, but betraying no
alarm he asked him what was the matter.
The negro replied that he had decided to
kill the whole family, as they talked too
much and left him no time to think. The
Judge betrayed no alarm. and told him be
agreed with him, and that he would attend
to 1t. By the use of consummate tact the
Judge succeeded in modifying the mailman
until be at last laid down his gun and at the
judges suggestion left the room. As soon
as he was out of hearing the judge tele-
phoned TO neighbors. and in q short time a
deputy sheriff placed the coachman under
arrest. Doubtless q tragedy was averted by
the GOODNESS which the jurist exhibited.

THE AIM OF THE TWO PARTIES.

Ex-Speaker Carlisle in the
May Forum, replying to Dawes
review of the administrator says
1t is true, as stated by Sena-
tor Dawes, that the issue be-
tween the two parties was
clearly and sharply defined in
the last campaign; but it is not
true that the Democratic policy
went down "before the current
oe popular disapproval." The
Republican party was contend
ing for the Offices, and it got
them. The Democratic Party
was contending tor great
principle which lies at the
foundation of every government
that recognizes the right Of the
citizen to the earnings Of his
own labor, and 1T received the
approval of a majority of the
people. Why it was that the
offices were given to one party
and the approval to the princi
pies Of the other, is a quest or
that could be easily answered
by a reference to the manipula-
tion of voters by political mana
gers in certain close and doubt
full States.

Jews and Observer.

The position af the wisest
leaders of the Alliance, as we
understand il, is that they be-
lieve in the Democratic theory
of government: that the best
government in the world is that
in which the people are govern
ed least, and in which men do
not look to the government for
anything which they can do for
themselves. That is the ideal
government. But, while hold
ing this as the ideal in govern
ment, the farmers assert-and
assert truly-that other classes
have appealed to the govern
meDt for protection and aid
and it has been granted at the
expense of the farmers, many
mechanics, and business and
professional men, and that while
the protected classes have
grown rich the others have
grown poorer year by year
Their complaint now is, no
that they get no protection fl on
the government. Not all, bu
they do complain because pro
lection is given to others tc
their hurt.-State Chronicle.

Artistic simplicity is the pro-
per term to characterize the
dainty toilets that fashion has
decreed for the summer cam
paign.
"The pullback" is the most
exclusive and select of English
designs for a walking costume.
But this style il only suitable
for heavy material such as
brocade cloth, serge or velvet
lined satin. Then, too, there is
the necessity for learning how
to walk. The regular heel and
toe will not do. The glide only
is indOrsed. This movement
consists in advancing on the tees,
with a rigid knee, but a free
hip. TO bend the knee is to
break the gore in the pull back.
Rubber corsets, high collars
and a staggering outfit is the
latest fad with the girls for
spring sutings.
Printed silks, in all their
floral beauty. show exceedingly
clever reproductions fro IN

The popularity of the blouse
continues unabated. Even the

wear are fashioned after this
