A LOW Down Trick.

The other day. says the Detroit Free Press,
when seven or eight men were lounging in a
saloon on Brush street, a stranger entered. II
was plain that he was dry. 1t was also plain
that he was man who didn't have the moral
courage to stand at the bar and drink alone
before a crowd. '-''.-
The crowd stood up. The stranger advanced
to the bar and the crowd moved with him
'Well?" asked the bartender.
The man took quarter from his vest, laid it
carefully down on the board, and calmly said:
Water for one, and let it be cold"
He was given glass, charged the usual price
OF beer, and as he drained his glass and picked
up his change, he said:
Yum. But that hits the spot! I'd have
asked you, gentlemen, but no one should take
on strange drink in hot weather like this
Splendid brand, that. I'll probably be in
again. "

Gen. Early has made reply to the re-
cent structures of Maj. j. Horacs Lacy, in
which he says: Gas to Lacy's criticism OF
my military career, especially his reference
to my Valley campaign, they are too con-
temptible to notice, and show his utter
want of military acumen and correct in
formation. l am perfectly willing to abide
the judgment of men correctly informed
and duly qualified to form an opinion as to
all of my operations, especially in regard to
the unequal contest in the Valley in 1864
His inslnuations as to my being an habitual
drunkard and practical miscegenationist,
are but the fabricationS of an uuprincipled
and untruthful crank. as he is known to be
by those acquainted with him." Both men
having exhausted their vocabulary of cpl
tl,ets, let them settle the matter one way or
the other, and let there be an end to the
controversy.

She was smart and she was pretty. and her
elders thought her witty, and she tripped

She could read both French and Latin, and was
sweet in print or satin. and 'twould make

But in single life she tarried, and she never,
never married, and she'll doubtless be

An article in the current number of the
Forum on the 'decollete in modern lifen
will create stir in fashionable society.
The article is by Miss Elizabeth Stewart
Phelps, and is principally remarkable for
its severe arrangement of the decollete
gown and the sharp criticism of its wearers
Miss Phelps asserts that in our country and
century women "have never dressed SO in
decently as they do in fashionable society
to-day" and she asks whether
moral or mental insanity possesses
the ladies of fashion. 81 do not be-
heve," she says, ''that two reputable
women in the land would dare publicly to
defend the styles of undress which now dis
grace our sex" The correctness of this is
doubtful. The wearing of the dress is in
itself a defense of the style, and that it is
worn by thousands of reputable women the
writer admits. The question is no. a new
one, but the vigorous manner in which it is
discussed by Miss Phelps will revive in terest
in the subject.

Although it is Il fundamental principle in
this country that no state or national aid
should be given to sectarian schools, by a
peculiar law in New York the Catholic
schools, after complying with certain regu-
lations, can become part of the state sys-
tenn of education, which entities them to
a share of the academic fund. Five of
these schools have just obtained char
ters, and will hereafter receive state
AID. In order to accomplish this
each of the chartered schools was first
iaased to its board of trustees for term of
years, and having thus conformed to the
legal requirements, it received a charter
a I'D became, in the language of one of the
regents, "a component member of the state
university" According to the university
regents, the law and the constitution have
not been violated by this arrangement.

The ancient contest between the pork
packers of Boston and the compound lard
manufacturers of Chicago will probably be
decided in the House this week. One of the
bills to be discussed provides for the sale OF
compound lard under the control of the
commissioner of internal revenue, the
same as liquors, tobacco and oleomarga-
rine, and imposes a tax upon it. The idea
is, of course, to make it sell at higher
prices, so that the slaughter house article
will have greater demand. Compound
lard being made largely from cotton seed
oil southern interests are opposed to the bill.
Senator Paddock's pure food bill is consid-
cred a much better measure, as it does not
discriminate in favor of any particular ar
ticle. 1t compels all food articles to be
sold for just what they are. A compromise
will likely be made substituting this bill fol-
the compound lard bill, which would ap-
pear to be the wisest and fairest plan.

been sent into exile. The regiment, which

What is called a provisional draft of the
force bill has been submitted by the Senate
committee on privileges and elections to the
republican senators, with a request to each
senator to read the measure carefully and
to give the committee the benefit of his
best Judgment as to any changes which
ought to be made in its language or pro-
visions. The members of the COM
mittee have done good deal
Of changing and smoothing down.
Of the language of the bill them
selves. The most important change was
the elimination of the provision providing
for troops at the polls. The opposition to
the bayonet clause seems to have proved
too strong for the committee. Nearly all
the other obnoxious clauses have been
changed, too, with view of over
coming the objections of GER
tain senators. Whether the caucus
will accept the bill in its present shape is
doubtful. Toe leaders insist on keeping
it intact. But whether the changes will
be agreed to or not, the bill is radically
and fundamentally wrong, military or no
military at the polls, and it should never
be allowed to become a law.

blaine and His Parity.

Blaine is not in favor with the admins
tration and great many of the leaders of
his party at present. They are calling him
hard names and declare that he is a schemer
and disturber of party harmony. They
would like to read him out of the party If
they could. They can't do that, and they
are gratifying their spite against him by
abusing MIN.
The whole trouble grows out of his
reciprocity suggestion. 1t has caused the
President, Reed, Mckinley and other re-
publican leaders great annoyance. They
refused to listen to il when
Blaine made it to the ways and means com
Inittee, and again they refused to entertain
it when he presented it to the finance com
Inittee. Baine thought that, having failed
to get a fair consideration of it from either
of the great congressional committees which
have charge of the tariff bill, he would see
whether the people would listen to him. He
presented his suggestion TO them and they
listened, approved and applauded. And
that is why Harrison, Reed, Mckinley &
Co. are out with Blaine
Every day senators and representatives
are getting letters aud dispatches from
their constituent asking why they don't act

that before we admit sugar free

so much good sense that it is no wonder
| that it attracts the attention of the people.
| The strange thing is that it does not COM
mand the respect of the republican leaders
in congress. Why are they anxious to give
! up $50 900, 900 of revenue annually without
| getting some benefits from sugar producing
| countries in returns That is a question they
| do not answer.

ality. The visiting president, who
reaches the precincts of a university at
nine in the morning and leaves at
four in the afternoon, will surely fail
of achieving this necessary blending
growth between himself and the in
stitution whose destiny he controls.
1t does not belong to Mr.. Horace Davis, or
any other nan, to occupy the exalted first
place in the educational system OF Cali
fornia, and accord his position the disre-
spect of a divided affection, aspiration or
intention.
One other phase of this question re-
mains TO be noted. Upon the assurance OF
residence and that perfect concentration OF
attention to his duties, Mr.. Davis was
given the Office of President The Rec
oRD-UNIoN heartily encouraged his cleo
tion, and unqualifedly indorsed the action
of the Board of Regents when it became
an accomplished fact. The gentleman,
however, has neither given up his pri-
vate business nor resided at Berkeley. He
has no right to assume that hewould have
been elected to the Presidency, had his
subsequent action in this regard been un-
derstood. Boards of Regents may hold
executive sessions and force upon pro-
fessors and preceptors requirements which
become :yrannical by reason of discrimi-
mating exception, but in the light Of Mr.
Davis anti-election pledges and assur-
ances, both he and the Regents may well
rise to question of personal privilege.
