A Lawyers Ruse to Make People Think
Him Great.
A few days since a famous lawyer sat
In his shirt sleeves in his inner office.
with his feet on a window sill and a cigar
in his mouth, at half-past ten in the
morning. People came to see him at
short intervals and they were all told that
he was engaged at an important confer
ence uptown, but that he would be at his
office between twelve and one. At twelve
O'Clock the lawyer had finished his cigars,
got through with the papers and narrow
ly escaped falling asleep half a dozen
times. At the stroke OF the clock a re-
markable change came over him.
He pulled on an alpaca coat, brushed
his hair back from the bullying forehead,
buttoned the coat up severely to the neck
and sat down in his consulting room, sur
rounded by tones and ponderous legal
documents. All the people who had been
to see him that day crowded into the
Office at twelve O'Clock and patiently
waited for a chance to speak to the great
a All were impressed by the ire
mendous rush of business in hand. The
outer room was crowded to suffocation.
At one O'Clock the last of the callers had
been disposed of and the statement went
forth that the lawyer could see no one
else until twelve O'Clock the next day, 1t
is quite a trick and | nave no doubt that
il is practiced extensively. - BlOkely

suspicion of such q result, is prepos-
ferrous, especially when she is sup
posed to esteem and love the man she
deliberately undoes. Such q thing is
so entirely foreign to her nature as tic
be beyond hypothesis. She would not
be capable Of it if she were totally in
different to the man. Nothing but
the densest selfishness, or the deepest
malice. would furnish the motive for
such an act, which is, as a rule, in
compatible with woman's nature OF
woman's methods.
At any rate is it not an exception
when q woman ruins a man imam
cially, or otherwise, indeed? He is
very ready to proclaim himself ruined
by her; he seems to think that the
charge relieves him. He is sc con
stantly the cause of her ruin that he
is anxious to turn the tables on her.
And to be ruined by a woman sounds
romantic, is calculated to excite pity
and sympathy, to put him in the
position of a martyr, especially in the
eyes of his own sex. Men almost
always ruin themselves, in a none
tary particularly, but lack the
courage to avow it. Their weakness
destroys them, and they dislike to
acknowledge weakness; they prefer
to give it the name Of some pictur-
esque wickedness.
No woman, at least in America, has
any such talent as a man has for spend
ing money. She spends for what she
believes to be beauty-for raiInent,
books, jewels, decoration, furniture,
pictures, marbles-rarely for what
does her serious harm. He spends
most for his vices, for the things that
hurt him greatly. He is apt to gam
BILE, to speculate, to bring evil to
others from his love Of pleasure or of
gain. He will get rid Of more money
in q month than she would in years.
She would, however ignorant of it, be
appalled, by the sums he dissipates.
She is constitutionally conservative;
big statements of any sort are likely
to alarm her. Unless desperate or
frenzied, she invariably stops short of
extremes. She trembles and turns
pale where he, in the flush of egotism,
moves undisturbed.
Nearly all the talk of woman's care
lessness OF money is really idle. The
opinion cannot be sustained. 1t is
mainly the echo of misapprehension.
Where she is ever partially enlight-
ened on the subject, she is prone TO be
very cautious in it's use. Her tenn
peramental tendency is to the oppo-
site of carelessness.
Men who have wasted thousands of
dollars will say-when she has bought
a pretty ring, a bit of lace, a nice en-
craving that will make her happy for
many a day, seThese women never can
be taught the value of money" And
to such utterances she owes her un-
just reputation.-Lad5es' Home Jour

Exemptions Unjust if not Illegal.

Exemptions Unjust if not Illegal.
There can be but little doubt that
the Board Of Equalization is right in
ignoring the tax exemption law. This
enactment is unjust in principle and
g7i2pd f0cSe in absolute contravention
of the Constitution, which, as Mr..
Edwards points out, requires the
assessment of property by uniform
rules according to its true value.
The theory of the law is that per-
sons are taxed, and may therefore be
given exemptions for services to the
State. The theory of the constitu-
ton is that property is taxed, and of
curse personal exemptions are not
In accord with that principle.
Unfortunately the State In some of
It's other laws violates the constitu-
ton equally. The railway tax laws
permit the personal element-regard-
ing corporations as legal persons-to
enter materially into the process of
assessment, and the Court of Errors
has given, under the pressure of great
public necessity, a certain sanction to
the abuse.
It is time to draw the line, however,
Just where we stand today. Let us
tax the property of the community
just as we find it, and afterwards find
some other way of paying our debts
to sentiment.

BIG MICHAEL MULLERY.

He and His Incorporation" Damaged
$4,000 Worth by a Texan Steer.
Michael Mullery, the well known street
contractor, who has from time immemo-
rial endeavored to make the streets and
tagging of this city as uneven as any
contractor could desire, has taken q con-
tract to pave the courts and wheels of
Justice. This contract is a big one
and Michael want 5000 for his profits,
and this he wants the Central Stock Yard
and Transit Company to pay him.
Michael, as everyone knows, is a big
man, He is big in every sense. His
stature is big, his head is swelled, his
hands and feet are big, and last, but the
Lord knows by no means least, that por-
ton of his anatomy designated as his
Corporation" is extremely big.
One day-it was the twenty-fourth of
March, having nothing better to do, Mi
chael concluded to go to the Central
Stock Yards. He gathered up his big
corporation carefully and gently de-
posted it in a street car. In due time the
Yard was reached n Michael ard his
Corporation entered the gate. 1t was a
rash thing for him to do. The Texas
steers gazedin amazement as the big man
carried the bigger Corporation" by.
The steers felt offended. Never in their
far off Southwestern home had they seen
the like. There, big men were lean and
lank, and looked ill fed, but Michael APP
peared to them as a cormorant. The
steers passed word down the line to "size
up the corporation" They did so, and
the sight so enraged one noble Texan,
who had strayed out of his
stall for a morning stroll, that
he straightaway made a plunge at
Michael. He found him. The first
contact was with the Corporation"
That caved in like a bursted balloon
when the Texans horns found it. Michael
yelled aud the steer snorted. Again and
again did that noble Texan show his con-
tempt for that tenderly kept corpora
tion,'' and 1t was rolled about the ground
like a football. Michael went with it each
time and yelled.
At last a score of men lassoed the brute
and Michael was taken in the office. So
was his abused Corporation Both
were sent home and Michael now de-
clares that the abuse hat Corporation"
received, the manner his legs and arms
were twisted and bruised and the general
break up of his entire condition COM
PEELED him to pay a medical bill of $500.
He wanted the stock company to pay this
but they would not, declaring that the
injured Corporation" and limbs were
his and not theirs. For this reason
Michael has brought suit in the Circuit
Court to recover S., 900 damages.

hot weather Health Rnles.

A natural consequence OF the recent
extreme heat in Chicago was the de-
pendence of people upon physicians
and the desire to secure medical adj
vice upon the care of the health dur
ing warm weather. Some of the help
received in physicians consultations
may be usefully considered in all
parts Of the country subject to torrid
waves; even a r~eiteration of we'll
known health maxilns is not super
fluous. The Chicago physicians
agreed that it was a dangerous expert
ment to try to keep cool by drinking
alcoholic liquors, and this advice was
tested by the fact that more than
half of the victims of sunstrolze in that
city were accustomed to drink alco-
holic liquors. Carbonated waters
were recommended as excellent pre-
ventatives. Milk and cold acid drinks,
like lemonade and other fruit bever-
ages, taken frequently and a little at
q time, were proposed as healthful,
but ice water was placed under the
ban of disapproval. Rules were madein
regard to the proper kind of wearing
apparel, and the physicians declared
that black clothes shouldnot be worn,
but that li~ght-colored, lightweight
garments should be chosen in warm
weather. In mentioning the diet,
it was again asserted that much meat
should not be eaten, but that vegeta-
bles and fruits should form the warm
weather staples.
One OF the most important medical
rules was that against mental and
physical exertion. In Chicago, where
life is urged forward in an intense
rivalry for wealth, such advice would
be especially necessary, but in all
large American communities it is
worth consideration. Even those
summer resorters who are supposed
to find rest as we'll as refreshment
during the summe months are with
difficulty restrained from pursuing
pleasure with a great mount of
physical and mental exertion. The
energetic American temperament
takes little account of weather
changes, and medical warning is par
ticularly needed at this time of the
year. boston Journal.

WITHOUT v~enturing to pass on the
question whether Hoboken's valua-
tions are or are not as high as they
ought to be, we Amay say we regard it
as fortunate that they are not to be
raised. There is considerable irrita-
ton among residents of that city
over the taxation question. 1t was
plainly shown in the extract from the
Hoboken E0endng MeaDs which we
reprinted yesterday. We believe it is
more than probable that the levy
would have been certioraried by
Hoboken if any additional burden
had been placed on her taxpayers.
There is q clearly defined conviction
in the other sections of the county
that they are being victimized more
or less in the interest of Jersey City.
There is a good deal of foundation for
1t too. The Ring has got itself into a
bad mess here, and it is now en-
deavoring to make the Jersey citizens
tax bills light-not to relieve them,
but to conceal its own crimes.
OF cours His Fraudulency accepts
the invitation of Van Houten Post to
go to Boston. He was never known
to refuse anything. But how the sol
diers who fought and bled for their
country can reconcile themselves to
the companionship of a buyer of
bounty jumpers, a man who tried to
cheat Uncle Sam in his hour Of trou-
bic, who sent deserters and swindlers
to fill the ranks from which honora-
BILE men had dropped, that is some
thing we cannot understand.

He dwells feelingly on the reluctance
with which themen who subscribed to

their money. But, oh, why does he
not tell us something about the re-
luctance with which the President
paid it back. There is a field for
pathetic writing.
