SIDE LIGHTS ON MEN.

Last week the oft-repeated story that
Mrs. Frank Leslie was to marry the
Marquis de Leuville was telegraphed
across the water. This time with the
fact that license had been procured,
and that the ceremony would be per-
formed Saturday. But on that day Mrs.
Leslie was on board the steamer City of
Rome, booked for passage to New
York. She had refused the marquis
request to be permitted to ride with her
from her hotel in London to EuStOn sta
ton. To correspondent Mrs. Leslie
said she had no intention of marrying
the marquis or any one else, although
she admitted that there had been an
engagement between her and the mar
quis five years ago. The indications
are, although Mrs. Leslie did not ex-
press it in so many words, that she
has been the object Of persecu-
marquis at all, but the son of an obscure
artist named Oliver, who lived near
Scarborough. He saw in the French
newspapers one day that the race of the
arlstocratic Olivier family was extinct
and that the title of the Marquis de Leu
vile would lapse. He promptly claimed
to be lineal descendant Of the Olivier
family and appropriated the title. He
IS man of excessive vanity. who pads,
paints and powders like faded coquette,
and has succeeded in forcing himself
into society by his claims to be poet
and artist. His record is far from
creditable. Some years ago he married
q daughter of Nine. Tussaud, of wax
works fame, but they parted, and his
former wife is now living in Madrid.
Since his return to London he has been
conspicuous for his open affiliations
with the wealthy widow OF carriage
maker.

full to the duties of citizenship. There
fore we do not stop to discuss the insult
that the Republicans gave the large and
eminently respectable class of our citi-
zens of Swedish origin by casting Col.
MATTsoN overheard. We resent the
bad treatment that Col. MATTsON has
received on the ground of his pre-emi-
nent ability, his faithful public service.
and his brilliant record in the war as a
Union soldier. Col. MATTSoN was not
born in bank, but when the Ameri-
can flag needed defenders he stood in
the trout rank of battle and offered his
life as sacrifice. There are younger
men than Coy. MERRIAM who carried a
musket in the War of the Rebellion,
yet the governor never smelt powder
except in sham battle. In fact, last
Thursdays convention, so far as the
distribution of nominations was con-
cerned, was more of a society affair
than a veterans reunion. The old
soldier was conspicuous by his absence
and for the bad treatment he received
when he did show himself.

The Toady Mahaffy.

Prof. Mahaffy, of Trinity college.
Dublin, who recently made himself ri
diculous by his criticisms of America,
which he knows principally through a
ten days sojourn here, has a reputation
for toadyism that is second to none.
When the late Duke of Marlborough
was vieeroy of Ireland, Lord Randolph
Churchill was his fathers private sec
rotary. Lord Randolph was not yet of
any political consequence whatever.
He had only distinguished himself by
marrying beautiful young American.
Still Mahaffy t0adied to the younger son
in his very best form. The thing was
carried so far that Churchill was dis
gusted. A dinner was given at the
viceregal lodge at which our professor
was present. After the ladies had gone
to the drawing room there was some
talk about certain book. Suddenly
the professor disappeared. alt will be
here presently" said Churchill, my
little dog Mahaffy has gone for it,"
His sense of university discipline is,
for clergyman, peculiar. A student in
whose progress Mr.. Mahaffy had some
interest was devoting himself SO much
to Dr.. Luther's trilogy, ''wine, women
and song," that there was possibility
of his getting into trouble with the au-
thorities. "My dear fellah," said Ma
haffy, 'you shouldn't let theth thingth
be known; it it'll vewy bad form-vewy
bad form, indeed" Not word about
the Irregularities themselves. 1t was
only their disclosure that was Of impor-
lance.

CLAPP,S CLIMAX.

Attorney General CLAPP has been so
busy OF late padding back and forth
between the Alliance and the Republic
can camps in search of anomination, he
has managed to forget what little bit he
ever knew about the history of Mime
sofa. Either that, or he gave utterance
to a willful and malicious peryersion of
the truth when he stood up in Newman
ket hall last Thursday and said that the
only debt Minnesota ever had was con-
tracted by its only Democratic state adj
ministration. Two years ago, IN a
speech made in this city, Gov. MEr-
RAM committed the grievous blum
der of making the same misstate-
ment. and possibly Gen. CLAPP was his
prompter at the time. The second day
thereafter Gen. SIBLEY. who was the
first governor 'of Minnesota, and its
only Democratic executive, published
an open letter in which he demon
strated the falsehood of the state
ment, and his demonstration of it was
accepted as verify. Gov. MERRIAM
first made the statement through igno-
rance, and not with malicious intent
he never repeated it after Gen. SIB-
LEY's letter was published, and it has
never been referred to by anybody since
until Gen. CLAPP, in his eagerness to
square himself with the Republican
party on account of his recent Irritation
with the Alliance leaders, deemed it
necessary to reyamp this calumny.
The debt to which Gen. CLAPP re-
ferred was not the creation of any one
official or of any one party. 1t was rail-
road bond debt, created under conSti-
tutional amendment authorizing the
issue of $4,000, 900 of state bonds to aid
in the construction of certain lines of
railway. A vast majority of the people.
irrespective of party, voted for it, and
it was by their action the debt was ere
ated.
1t is matter of common history that
Gen. SIBLEY, "the only Democratic
governor Minnesota ever had," person
ally opposed the measure, and exerted
all the influence of his administration
to defeat it. So far as he dared to do,
the exercise of his official authority was
interposed as an obstacle to its Gre
alton.
These are historical facts within the
reach of every citizen of Minnesota,
and man holding the position of the
states law officer ought to be better in
formed than Gen. CLAPP seems to be.
If he didn't know any more about the
milk cases than he does about Mime
sofa history, it is no wonder that the
railroads got such an outrageous de-
cision from the supreme court. 1t is
about time we were having a new at
torney general.

per cent, only shade under 100 per cent
increase, and it protects nobody, as we
export one-third of our American. hops,
and mast have Bohemian hops, like
Canadian barley, to produce the present
high standard of American beer. 1t is
simply wanton tax on labor and its
products.
The tax on carpet woods, which we
don't and can't grow in this country, is
now SO.45 per cent. with camel's hair
free. The new tariff in senate and house
increases both carpet wool and camers
hair to so per cent tax, thereby imposing
an oppressive tax on every carpet loom
in Philadelphia. AS we grow no carpet
wool and no camel's hair, there is no
pretense of protecting any industry by
this monstrous tax The Times is care
full TO be accurate in its statement about
taxation, and it challenges contradiction
of its presentation Of the figures giving
the largely increased taxes imposed
upon Philadelphia labor.

Smashing an Idol Of Brass.

Bob billiard, the pretty actor, has run
afoul of the New York Evening Sun,
which says of him: I'm appearance he
looks like what he once was, clerk in
a dry goods store, and a Brooklyn drv
goods store at that. His hair glistens
with oil, his mustache is curled like
BARRIERS, and he ogles and stares at de-
cent women as though they were new
kind of garment that he contemplated
buying He is an Adonis of Broadway,
brawler in cafes, and he dresses like
what he is, a vulgarly pretty juvenile
actor. Whenever he goes on the road
he gets mixed up in barr0om fight and
then runs to the nearest telegraph sta
ton to tell the New York papers of how
he blackened some commercial drum
mer's eye while defending the good
name of some actress who is so unfort-
innate as to have him for voluntary
champion. He poses in consequence as
a fighter of great prOWess, but a woman
with an umbrella once beat him into
nervous prostration OH Broadway and
made him run for his life. He poses as
well as Don Juan. before whom every
woman falls PROSTATE. and Mrs. Lang
try tells how he used to grovel ON his
knees before her, and kiss and weep
into her slippers"

BLAINE REvIsEs HIMSELF.

In the light of Mr.. BLAINE's supple

COLE, would not have been in such
haste to put his man of clay Oh plat
form committed to the reciprocity idea.
1t is an instance of acting in haste
and repenting at leisure.
Still Mr.. BLAINE sticks to his original
text that there is not line in the Nc
KINLEY bill which will open the market
for another barrel of -four or another
pound of pork. Mr.. BLAINE has not
yet opened a loophole of escape for the
five Minnesota congressman who voted

LOST IN THE CENSUS.

It appears from the reports that the
census shows loss of population of 81
600 in sixteen Of the counties of New
York state that have no lalge cities.
The theory that this is due to ineffi-
cheney in the enumerators cannot be
entertained unless it is. conceded that
this inefficiency has extended through
all the enumeration of the country.
This is loss Of per cent outside of
the cities, in those counties which
should be full average of the agri-
cultural districts in the Eastern states.
The puzzle with most people is to ac-
count for the constant increase in the
voters of the localities that lose popu-
lation. This is nice problem to figure
out. 1t requires much ingenuity and
quite mental strain, but it is believed
it has been effected to certain extent.
1t is better to believe that the census is
in the main near enough to accuracy to
show the essential facts that are useful
