Put Up a Job on Him.

There is young actor in New York who
says the Brandon Bucksdto, has developed a
moral antipathy toward that most delicate of
tints, pale.pink When it is referred to in his
presence he becomes embarrassed and exhibits
a strong inclination to slide through some con-
venient crack in the floor. The tale that hangs
thereby is a touching one. The young actor
regards himself as a lady killer Of the deepest
dye, and, In the patoiS of the profession earns
his salary at Saturday matinees." In the com
pany with him is a comedian with a passion for
the practical joke.
One day in a facetious moment he wrote what
Is known as q mash note" to the young actor
and signed feminine name thereto. The bait
was swallowed ana the correspondence between
the flirtatious youth and his mysterious ad-
mrer kept the company ia roars for a week
Finally one of the letters from the fair one
ended as follows;
~ shall 6e in box at the matinee and shall
wear red rose at my throat. II you receive
this, please have bit of pale pink ribbon in
your buttonhole. Yours from afar,
''GLARrssA."
The young man has the opening scene of the
play, and at the matinee specified dashed on
with pale pink ribbon adjoining his lapel. In
the middle OF his first speech he glanced at the
boxes and discovered four women, each with q
red rose at her throat and deeply sentimental
smile. Every one of them was decorated with
a pale pink knot, bow or streamers. The young
actor went all to pieces, forgot his lines and
swore to have the red, red blood Of the man
who put up the game on him.
In the last act the victim has q very pathetic
scene and was Just in the middle of it when the
leading lady'S pCg dog Strayed the stage
His funny little tall was ornamented with big
pale pink bow and his entrance had a most dis
astrous effect. Three scenes were cut bodily
breaking up the performance. He is still look

The Issue ForcIbiy Presented.

At the democratic ratification meeting in
Des Moines, Ia. Tuesday night, Gov. Boies
was the principal speaker. Having been
twice elected governor of a republican state
his reputation has become national And
he deserves his reputation. he is man of
unquestionable ability, aud his hold upon
the masses is remarkable.
In his speech at the ratification meeting
he devoted considerable attention TO the
tariff. In the course OF his remarks he
said:
1.-The stuty Of the cornfelds In Iowa has
but Just begun. When it is ended the
farmers of this state will be able to make an
intelligent comparison Of the effect of our
protective tariff system upon their own aud
other industries Of the country. They will
have learned why il is that their own mag
nlficent Iowa is plastered over with land
mortgages representing nearly $2O0. 0O0, 900
Of indebtedness of their own, and they will
then be ready to unitedly demand what is
justly their du'. Let us be patient. When
the situation is understood the manual la
borers of this country will uproot the sys-
tenn Of legalized plunder that is fast divid-
ing our people into classes that should never
exist in government where law may be
framed by a common people. In accom-
plishing this no wrong will be done to capi-
tai 1t will simply be required to take its
chances in the United States with its kind
in other parts OF the world"
The foregoing is the sort of talk Gov.
Boies gave the farmers in the recent cam
paign. h made the tariff issue so clear
that the farmers understood it, and they
voted in accordance with their understand
ing. He showed them that they could not
make farming pay as long as the tariff laws
were so framed as to force them to sell their
products in the cheapest markets and pur-
chase in the dearest He also showed them
that these same laws were dividing the peo-
pie into two great classes-one poor and the
other rich. A few such men as Gov. Boies
would soon convert the great grain-growing
west to the tariff doctrine Of the Democratic

Notwithstanding that the late Prince
Lucien Bonaparte spoke no fewer than
eighty distinct languages he was unable to
convince the French that they should re-
store his family to the throne. Whether
this was due chiefly to the hard-headedness
of the French or the firmuess Of the founda-
ton of their republic is an open question.
Very likely the fact that the learned prince
did not try very hard to secure recognition
may have also had its full share to do with
this result Learning seems to have so alb
sorbed the mind of the student prince as &c
crowd out all thought Of political ambition.
Possibly it might be far better for the world
if there were more like him. Yet he was
far more capable and worthy to govern any
people than many who are now enjoying
royal prerogatives either actually or pro-
spectively.

Richmond Terminal Affairs.

1t looks as if the financial affairs Of the
Richmond Terminal were at last in a salts
factory shape. The New York Herald
which, in September, published statement
that caused some alarm among those who
hold the securities of the railroad systems
which the Richmond Terminal controls,
printed Tuesday a short interview with Mr..
John H. lnman, president of the Richmond
Terminal, in which Mr.. Inman said the
funding of the Central railroads floating
debt into per cont. bonds had been alb out
completed, and that the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia road would not pass
from under the control of the Richmond
Terminal. There were rumors week or
two ago that the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia would be managed in future
independently of the Richmond g 'minal
According to what Mr.. Inman says those
who started the rumors were not well in.
formed.
There is apparent now a disposition tc
run the roads of the Richmond Terminal
combination upon strict business principles
Heretofore, there is reason to think, the
management Of them has not been as eco
nomical as it might have been, and th'
financiering has been a little wild.
With its pressing floating debts out Of
the way and steadily increasing bushes
be bright one. 1t is a great system and
its projectors will now be able probably &
carry out their plans with respect to it.

Incidentally 10 the consideration Of a
damage case against the West Michigan
railway the supreme court Of Michigan has
just promulgated decree OF great interes
and no little Importance as q precedent TO
newspapers throughout the country. Simi-
lar instances have been brought up in this
state within the past year. They are likely
to occur at almost any time and in almost
any place. AS basis for judicial opinion
and as a means Of removing any basis for
introducing such questions in the future
this decision may prove valuable.
According to the evidence In the Michi-
gan case cited Miss Elizabeth K. Sherwood
sued the Chicago and West Michigan rail-
way for damages alleged to have been sus-
tanned through an accident consequent up
on contributory negligence Of the defendant
company and secured verdict OF SIS, 000
During the course of a second new trial the
Grand Rapids papers published the facts
setting forth the amount Of the former
award. Thereupon the counsel for the de-
Tense moved to have the publishers flned for.
contempt. But the motion was denied and
a verdict for $4,000 was subsequently
rendered.
That is the finding which the supreme
court sustains after giving due consideration
to the strenuous objections raised against
the course of the newspapers in publishing
the facts in the case.
Relative 20 that point the high court
says: Defendants counsel insist that this
publication was prejudicial. and especially
in view of the fact that the verdict in the
present case was larger than in the former.
This rule, if established. would render in
competent all who knew the amount of the
former verdict. Intelligent men, who are
the most competent jurors, are usually
readers of the newspapers. Newspapers
have the right TO publish verdicts and judg-
ments rendered in courts. However un-
wise it may be to publish them at the time
of the trial, no violation of the law is COM
United in so doing, nor will the reading of
them by jurors render them incompetent"
Manitestly that is "most righteous
judge" More than that he IL a man Of an
uncommonly logical mind even for the
bench in these days when the accident of
political favor may place just anybody in
charge of the instruments that are intended
to evolve justice. Any cause that cannot
withstand the public disclosure of the actual
facts upon which it rests or which thereunto
appertain is too Inherently weak to be
altogether just or wholly righteous.
