A Sensible and Proper Ruling.
From the Detroit Free Press.l

From the Detroit Free Press,I
The Philadelphia Judge who sustained a
witness in her refusal to kiss particularly
dirty Bible upon taking the oath was sensible
and proper. The way in which the oath is ad-
ministered in the average court is almost
blasphemously business-like, and is at the best
only a form sufficient to bring an untruthful
witness within the penalties provided for
perjury. Any other form provided by statute
would be equally effective in this respect, and
it may be set down as reasonably certain that
the removal of the Bible from this use would
not at all increase the number of untruths told
upon the stand.

Nothing of Importance in This world hs-
capes the Eve of the Dispatch.
From the Pawtucket, X. l., Times.J
Among the numerous papers that find their
way into this State none can surpass and but
few can begin to equal THE PITTsBURG DIS
PATCH, whose Sunday edition stands unrivaled
in the whole country. In the whole realm OF
news THE DISPATCH stands pre-eminent, ooth
for quality and quantity. Nothing OF 1mpor-
tance in this world escapes its eye, and 1t
would be no surprise to see it some day giving
the news of the next. Its daily edition is news
encyclopedia, from which newspapers all over
the country draw largely, some OF whom are
honest enough to give credit, while others are
not. Taken all in all, THE PITTsBURG Dis
PATCH is the model paper of the country.

THE State Treasurer of Maryland turns
out to have adopted the regular methods for
making a hole in the public funds Poker and
speculation, applied to a State Treasury, are
sure to cause deficit. The Maryland defaulter
is now reported to be very i'll; but he is not SO
sick as he has made the Treasury.

IT begins to look as if the Central Pacific
lobby which looks after the interests of that
corporation lin the legislative, executive and
judicial departments of Government" has got
its work in very successfully this year. That
is the natural inference from the action OF the
House committee putting the Union and Gen.
tral Pacific settlements in the same bills. This
expresses the opinion of that body that the
corporation which adopts the policy of defiant
dishonesty must be given exactly the same
treatment as the one which makes show OF
decency IN the attempt to discharge its obliga-
tions to the Government

From the st. Paul Pioneer Press.l
THE PITTsBURG DISPATCH, commenting
upon the ruling of Cleveland justice TO
the effect that Sunday shaving is
work of necessity, says: "Yet PittsDurg

eral years and has not yet experienced any very
deleterious consequences from its absence"
But in Pittsburg a man accused of carrying too
many days beard on his face can lay it to fur
mace smoke and foundry SCOT.

this chaste and apologetic effort: "a. B--was
a good son, a loving husband, fond father, an
able lawyer but an honest man."
THREE weeks ago it was asserted in this COL
umn that if a competent company would
give Plttsburgers a series of Gilbert and Sulli-
van operas it would be profitable to all con-
cerned. Mr.. Duff is the happy man to take up
this gage and he rides out of Pittsburg in a
Pullman car to-day, richer by several thousand
dollars than he came in. 1t is pardonable per-
haps, to congratulate oneself upon correct
Judgment. but in this case the public of Pitts
burg and Mr.. Duff are entitled to all the con-
gratulations goIug. The public. as soon as it
knew Mr.. Duff was offering something un-
usually good stepped up to the box office in
quick time. Mr.. Duff deserves congratulations
because of his pluck in venturing so much, and
his sense in seeing where a profitable venture
lay.
Mr. Duff told me yesterday that he intended
carrying out his programme as to the Gilbert &
Sullivan operas. Next season he will add
"Iolanthe" and Patience" possibly yet another
opera, to his present repertoire. He intends
playing the full repertoire in one week stands,
so that Pittsburg will not be sighted. By the
way, Pittsburg ought to be two-week stand
for not few of the first-class attractions now.
1t will be soon, no doubt.
AND as to the new theater? 1t is too early to
splinter the ceiling with our hats but we
may smile quietly and decently as Deftting the
day and the occasion. No city in the country
needs new theater more than Pittsburg and
the gentlemen who bring it here are entitled to
order moderate-sized halos to be worn by them
in their capacity of benefactors to long suffer-
inp public,

The certainty Of a new and frst-class
theater for Pittsburg's next theatrical season,
as announced elsewhere, will be welcome news
to theater goers. The large crowds that are to
be seen in our places of amusement prove that
there is room for another frst-class house.
Under the intelligent and liberal management
of Mr. Henderson, of Chicago. it can be taken
as foregone conclusion that the new Penn
avenue theater will be a credit to the city.

AMONG the qualifications of the young
est Gould for financial operations, it is stated
that he has been known to draw his check for

for as many millions, and yet not win the ap-
proyal Of the old man when he gets back.

When lovely woman first invited herself into
the field of public action and demanded the
right of suffrage, one objection to her was that
she would introduce sentiment into politics.
The pretty typewriter was invited by the tyrant
man himself into the field Of labor. and speedily
did introduce sentiment into business. Thus it
is the unexpected that always happens.
