Nc~spapers and Their Friends.

A newspaper, if it has any brains, con-
science and muscle back of 1t, must con-
tinually decide between doing its duty
and injuring its pocket. In any position
but that of an editor the public is able to
separate the individual homo from the
collective citizen. But if the editor does
not please them, it's his pocket they aim
at. Thus it is that newspapers learn
who their friends are. The man who
reads n newspaper and admires it all the
year around, yet gives his business sup
port to some other concern, whose prin-
ciples he detests, is not friend of the
former paper.
Admiration alone will not run q news
paper. Sooner or later such admirers
will find that the object of their affec-
tions has become welded TO other ways
that they do not admire-in other words,
newspaper is compelled, in order to
live, TO seek the friendship Of those who
are not 80 platonic in their love, but
unite that practical esteem with SEN
timent that binds mutual admiration in
other professions There are too many
men who expect an editor to slave in de-
fense OF their pet notions and hobbies,
advocate their views against the strong
est opposition and coolly withhold the
business support by which alone 81 Gnall
newspaper can live.
Talk about newspaper having pub
lie duty to perform, and an editor having
to labor for his principles, is cheap when
others stand back and, while extending
lukewarm neutrality with one hand,
are filing their pockets with the other
hand as a result Of the editors labor for
his principles, which they admire but do
not support. Clinton Enterprise.

NEW YORK, July 9.-The body Of Smiler,
the murderer who was done to death by
electricity at Sing Sing Tuesday morning
was seen by a reporter last evening at HUI
bergs undertaking shop, 265 West One
Hundred and Twenty-fifth street. Smiler
was the only one OF the four murderers
whose body was claimed by his friends
The bodies of the other three men never
passed out of the possession of the state
The eyes had been burned away, the
cheeks and the lower part of the face
were covered with blood-red scars which
the electric fluid had left, the bridge of
the nose had been burned clear to the bone,
and the eyebrows had been singed till
there was nothing left to show where
they had been.
There was no mark of surgeons knife
or of physicians instrument about the
face, neck or head of the dead man, and
the terrible disfguration which he had
undergone seemed clearly the result of the
impact of the electric agent.

POULTRY NOTES.
No. 2,3.

The Plymouth Rock is the all purpose
fowl. The market demands clean
yellow leg, and plump body.
Feed whole grain as it is better than
sloppy food in warm weather.
Gull your flock close, as grain is too
high to feed to poor stock of any kind.
BY cleaning your drinking vessels, and
giving fresh water two or three times a
day will add to the health of your birds
and health means thrift.
Fowls that are yarded should be al
lowed a run of an hour or two each
day on the lawn, as they will find
many a dainty morsel, also exercise,
which is very beneficial.
It is claimed by some that then
hens lay every day. They may per
haps, but not eggs, Of course they are
not laying eggs, they are laying off.

No Nlght to Exhmme SmlIer.

ALBANY, July 14.-State Attorney Gen
eral Tabor was asked what he thought of
Coroner Levy's assertion that he would
subject the body Of Smiler, the murderer,
to an autopsy and hold an inquest upon
it and compel the witnesses to the execu-
tions to tell all they knew and saw. He
said: Coroner Levy can do no such thing.
He has no more right to touch the body
than he has to go into cemetery in this
city and drag out the remains of people
buried fifty years ago The Office of cor
oner is limited by statute, and he can only
examine in case complaint is made and
he deems it suspicious. In this case, un-
der the laws of the state, the man has
been executed, and physicians appointed
under the law have certified as to the
cause of death.
Nothing tn DO with the Case.
ut does not matter, even if the man was
roasted to death, as long rs the warden
complied with the law. The death certif-
cate, with the result of the autopsy, is filed
in New York county, and the coroner has
nothing TO do in the case. No complaint
has been made, and he is acting entirely
without reason. Idon't think he will push
the matter"

DRAMATIC NOTES.


Not since 1883. according to The Mirror,
have the deathsin the dramatic profession
been so numerous in the same length Of
time as they have been this year.
Tony Pastor recently celebrated in New
York the twenty-sixth anniversary of his
theatrical career.
Justin MeCarthy's son is at the head of
a Sunday subscription theater scheme in
London.
An opera entitled "Elaine, /" and founded
on Tennyson's famous poem, will succeed
"Ivanhoe" at D'Oyly Cartes London the
ater Mr.. Bernberg is its composer.
The friends of William S. Gilbert and
Sir Arthur Sullivan now almost despair Of
healing the breach between them.
Mrs. Scott-Siddons will, it is said, return
to the stage next season, and bring with
her a new play.
There is a good deal of talk in England
in favor of the adjustment of the censor
ship of the drama. The system as it
stands has been most emphatically de
nounced by managers and others. although
the censor very seldom exercises his prerog-
alive of suppression.

900 in ROYALTIES on Shenandoah. AT one
time Shenandoah" was being played in

Mr.. A. NJ Palmer's prophecy that the
"day OF long runs is overn is hardly borne
out by facts. "The Old Homestead" is
about to close its fourth year in New York,
'sThe County Fair" ended its third season

after five months only because no theater
could be obtained for it, Men and
