The Sweets of Revenge.

Some years ago one of the prominent
banks of the state failed for many thousands of
dollars The crash was precipitated by run. -
and many people suffered. A gentleman was
talking with a Netos reporter of the failure.
There is story connected with that bank
failure that is known to few persons and has
never been in print" he said In that town
ten years ago there was poor boy who had
patented an invention with which he expected
to make fortune, but he had no means He
called on the president of the bank for help, but
was repulSed and told to return to his work and
give up such foolish ideas. The young man
struggled along for couple of years
before he got the needed financial assist

four years time he was worth Sl5O,O00 He
purchased some of the bank stock-enough to
be on the inside-and made deposits sufficient
to be on friendly terms with the officials of the
bank In a few months he discovered that the
bank president had loaned large sums of
money on poor security, and that a run
would bring about failure. He sold his stock
and be gan checking his deposits, claiming he
needed the money for investments. When he
had a small balance on hand he went to several
heavy depositors and told them the bank was

Editor Jones is Happy.

There is every reason to think that Charles
H. Jones, editor of the st. Louis Republic,
is happy. he has succeeded in getting
himself talked about. When Mr.. Joaes
was Florida editor he seemed TO think
that his mission in life was being accom-
plished when he was fortunate enough to
draw attention to himself. He evidently
feels that way now.
There is no doubt that Mr.. Jones is a very
good sort of man; and that be has very
considerable ability no one will deny. If
be is lacking in anything it is in that which
the distinguished senior senator from this
state prizes 81 highly, viz, judgment. Mr..
Jones sometimes says aud does things which
create the impression that he is not as well
balanced mentally as he ought TO be to con-
duct great democratic newspaper.
At the Southern Society dinner in New
York last Saturday night Mr.. Jones took
it upon himself to nominate Mr.. Cleveland
for president. and now this question is
being asked: Did Mr. Jones display either
good taste or good judgment! The opin-
ion of a great many people, and the New
York newspapers, have sought the opinion
Of a great many, is that he did not
Mr.. john c. Calhoun, the president of the
Southern Society, was asked what he
thought Of Mr.. Jones' performance, and he
answered that out of respect for Mr.. Jones'
feelings he preferred not to express an opin-
ion. He was quite sure, however, that Mr..
Cleveland did not authorize Mr.. Jones to
use his name in the way he did, nor did the
Son harm Snniofv - l.
Jones' intention to go into the nominating
business. Mr.. Calhoun ventured to say
that he thought that Mr.. Cleveland was
very much surprised at Mr.. Jones' per-
formanca.
The Southern society dinner was social
affair, and Mr.. Cleveland was one of the
guests. 1t was naturally embarr assing for
him under the circumstances to be brought
forward as a presidential candidate
Doubtless Mr.. Jones' intentions were
good. He is such an admirer
Of Mr. Cleveland that he would be
just as apt to nominate him for president at
prayer meeting as anywhere else Friends
like Mr.. Jones, however, are sometimes
more to be feared than enemies. They
have plenty Of enthusiasm, but they lack
discretion. They talk when they ought to
be silent.
1t may be that Mr.. Jones wanted to be
the first 60 nominate Mr.. Cleveland for
President in 1892, and was afraid somebody
would getahead of him. If that was his
purpose he did not score a point, because it
has been said many times in public adj
dresses and in the public prints that Mr..
Cleveland would be the next democratic
candidate for President. However, Mr..
Jones is being talked about-not In a very
complimentary way it is true-and prob
ably he prefers to have unpleasant things
said of him rather than not to be noticed at
all.

There is grief in the green room since the
interstate railroad commission decided that
theatrical troupeS must pay regular rates on
railroads. Troupes which have already
purchased tickets for their entire route feel
easy, so far as this season is concerned, but
those which have not done 50 will find their
calculations upset, aud some of them may
have to disband before the end of the sea-
son. Manager Ford, of Baltimore, says:
1.-THE decision, if sustained, will cost the
larger companies from $4,000 to $40, 900 a
season, which virtually wipes out all the
profits. The theatrical companies of this
country spent with the railroads during the
season of 1SsS-S9 the sum of So, 5OO,O 600, and
will spend much more this year"

The Burdens of Wealth.

Wealth has its burdens, annoyances, and
responsibilities, as well as its pleasures.
Most of those who are poor think that if
they We're rich they would be happy. Few
of the countless thousands who sacrifice
health, and deny themselves reasonable
pleasures, in their pursuit Of wealth, are sat-
isfied when they attain their object. Not
infrequently they find it more difficult to
take caro- Of wealth than to accumulate it.
John Jacob Astor, who died the other
day, was probably the richest man in this
country. 1t is related of him that fow
years after the death of his father be met
John Aspinwall in Europe. At that time
Mr.. Aspinwall was young man and poor
He had been a friend Of Mr.. Astor for
long time, and the latter was we'll &C
quainted with his business ability, and had
entire confidence in his integrity. Mr..
Aston said to him that he was tired of the
burdens of wealth, and would give him any
sum he might name, 100000 a year or
more, to take entire charge of the Astor
estate, the only condition being that he
should hold the position for life. Mr..
Aspinwall was greatly tempted to
accept the offer. He finally
declined it, however, on the ground that he
could not consent to make himself the slave
Of another mans life. He preferred to be-
gin life free man. He afterwards built
the Panama railroad and became mil
honaire.
William Waldorf Astor, the son of John
Jacob Aston, now the posssssor of his
fathers vast torture, does not want to bear
the burdens of wealth, and, it isunderstood.
does not intend to do So He proposes to
hire somebody to take care of his money.
He is very worthy man and has achieved
some prominence in poliUics and literature.
And why should he give the balance of
his life to looking after the rents from his
houses and to studying how to invest his in
come to the best advantages? He has now
many more millions than he has any posi-
BILE use for. Why should he devote his life
to accommodating other millions? 1t is
doubtful If he gets any more pleasure from
his wealth than he would get from modest
competency.

George Sparks, of Ottawa, accommodates
himself to circumstances in most remark
able way. He was engaged to be married
to the youngest daughter of Charles Smith.
and when the young lady's wedding outfit
had been completed, she concluded that
George had better break the news of the
coming marriage to her father. George
did so, and he was surprised at the result.
The old man was terribly angry, and swore
that If George wanted to become member
of the family he must mary the oldest
daughter, as under no consideration would
he allow the youngest to be married before
the other two. George yielded; the bride
expectant handed over her trousseau to her
Oldest sister, and the marriage took place
in three days.

According to the census of 1880, there
were twenty cities in the United States with
population of more than 100000. 1t is
Thought that at this time there are thirty
or thirty-fve. New York will continue to
lead in population when the next census is
completed, and Philadelphia will retain the
second place, but the third will pass from
Brooklyn to Chicago, which has recently
taken in good many suburban villages.
In 1880 Boston was fifth, but it is thought
that both st. Louis and Baltimore are now
ahead of her. The next four cities, Cincin-
natl, San Francisco, New Orleans and
Cleveland. will hold the same places they
held in 1880, and Pittsburg will go down
three points, its former place as twelfth
city being taken by Minneapolis, which in
1880 was away down to number thirty
eight. Louisville will probably fall two
