DID you ever stop to think about the
mind market? You undoubtedly paw
some attention to the source of the
daily food supply, but it is quite true to
say that you do not dwell quite frequent
ly or long upon the mind supply. What
voracious glutton the mind is. 1t
isn't as much of an ssicure in all cases
as 1t should be; this is shown by the
kind of mental pabulum many people
select-the newspapers, books, maga-
zines and periodicals they read. 1t
feeds on everything. The daintiest
morsel and coarsest heaviest and most
indigestible stuffs disappear rapidly,
and yet the mind manages to steer
clear of dyspepsia and govt. Much
food is lily masticated, too, but that
doesn't matter, especially in this age
Of surface cleaning and speed.

UNLESS he is of a thoughtful turn oil
mind the man who swallows an oyster
stew will seldom stop to think that the
day may yet come when oysters will
be as scarce as the great aux or the
American Buffalo. They seem to be
plenty enough now, and he doesn't
bother himself about the oysters
future. But the preservation OF the
favorite bivalve is at this moment the
great and only issue in the several
states interested in the oyster grounds
of Chesapeake Bay.

Reward of Lobbyists.

WASHINGTON, March 7.-Congress
will be very strongly criticised for APP
propriating money to pay the so-caled
French spoliation claims. which was
crowded into the deficiency bill during
the last hours of the session. and it
will be charged that this was the work
of the lobby, and that the money will
go to the lawyers and lobbyists instead
OF to the people to whom it was Justly
due. While there is a good deal OF
truth in these charges, it is neverthe-
less the fact that the failure of con-
gress to appropriate money for the
payment Of the French spoliation
claims has been one of the greatest
disgraces OF our legislative history.
These claims have been pending ever
since the latter part OF the last century,
and the government OF France furnished
the money to pay them years and years
ago. This money has laid idle in the
treasury Of the United States ever
since, although the claims were adjud-
icated by the court of claims and the
men to whom it belonged have been
clamoring forit year after year. There
is no question of the business of the
claims. but the men who owned them
originally have had to promise con-
tingent fees year after year. until now
80 per cent OF the estate will go to the
lawyers, while the few living claimants
and the heirs to dead ones will get the
rest. 1t is estimated that not more
than 3 per cent OF the claims are now
held by the persons who presented
them, and it is also asserted that all
but two Of the original claimants are
dead.

One Of che charms of the American
man has been his good-nature, his
unselfish regard for the comfort of
others, his love of comradeship, his
assumption that his neighbor is en-
titled to his confidence, and it is TO be
sincerely regretted that many of our
gilded youth are acquiring the British
vice which compels a man, as soon as
he is thrown in contact with another,
to put himself on his guard lest his
sacred isolation should be intruded
upon.

Two Men Caught In a Pswnshop with
Diamonds. Watches and Rings
Two men giving their names as Ed
ward wiles, OF Ma so Myrtle avenue,
Brooklyn. aud Henry Adler, of No. 2S5
East Forty ninth street, New York, were
seen yesterday acting suspiciously IN the
vicinity OF Meyers pawn shop on Pavonia
avenue. Detectives Clark aud Mcbride
followed them into the store and found
them in the act of negotiating a loan on a
diamond ring. Both were loaded with
jewelry. Twelve diamond pins and
several gold finger rings were found in
Wiles' possession. Adler had nearly a
many rings as Wiles had besides WE gold
watches. Nearly eighty pawn checks for
different articles of jewelry were found
on the two men. Both were placed under
arrests as suspects.
In the First District Police Court this
morning the men claimed that they had
bought n lot OF cheap diamonds and other
jewelry for speculation purposes. There
Is a strong supposition that the bulk OF
the jewelry is the proceeds of some big
burglary. The prisoners were remanded
until Monday.

The RuIs OF IN, rough.

The toughs in this city apparently
have determined to do about rs they
please. They are so powerful and the
police seemingly so powerless that
the loafers pursue their evil ways
almost unmolested. On Tuesday
three of the '.Glass House Angels, :"
notorious rufians, were arrested
and charged with having
robbed two houses, as stated in
THE JERSEY CITY NEWS of hat date.
The men were held by the magistrate
for evidence which it seems that the
victims of the outrage ought to fur
nish, but this evidence has not been
Forthcoming, The truth is, the vic
TINS are afraid to prosecute these men.
because they fear the vengeance Of
the gang. Another instance of the
strength of rowdyism in this city
is elsewhere noted in the
columns of this paper. Briefly recited
1t is thus:-A conductor of a Grove
street car demonstrated with a tough
for stretching his legs acros the aisle
Of the car so that ladies could not pass
without stepping over them. The
ruffian replied to the conductor with
language so vile that he at once
elected the tough. Later this fell
low and a confederate determined
ON vengeance lay for the con-
ductor. They caught the wrong
man and did not discover this
fact until they had beaten him seri-
ously. The mistake ascertained, the
toughs waited until the right conduc-
tor came along, and then they had their
revenge on him for having elected
one of their number from a
car. This condition OF things must
stop. This city pays too much
for good government to be run by
gangs. 1t is the duty of the Chief OF
Police to see that the Captain in
every precinct forthwith proceeds to
break up this gang rule that terriies
citizens into submission TO the gross
est of outrages. Chief Murphy you
cannot put an end to this condition
of affairs too soon Men, women and
children require you to stop it.

David B. Hin and Free silver.

The New York correspondent of
the Philadelphia Press draws an in
teresting contrast this morning be-
tween the conduct OF Cleveland and
Hill in respect to the Free Silver
Coinage bill. He says certain friends
OF Mr.. Cleveland. seeing how he was
being bounded on the silver question,
and knowing his fearless honesty, de-
termined to give him an opportunity
of defining his position under
circumstances which would give
his foes little comfort. They
therefore proposed to invite both
Clsvelsnd and Governor David b.
Hill to define their position on the
/Silver question. If it was good to in
sist that one should show his hand,
why not the other also, and so the
two invitations were sent.
Mr.. CleveIand's straightforward
reply is now matter of history. or it,
the Press correspondent says
There is no doubt whatever that in this city at
least, among men Of all parties, Cleveland has
gained by this letter. 1t required unusual cour-
Rge-that is universally adnitted-to say any
thing about silver at this time. and it required
the greatest Of courage to take a stand which
seems to be in opposition to that Of the majority
of the party. Perhaps Cleveland was a shrewder
politician In doing so than some Of the leaders
give him credit for being. But it has always
been his idea that the Amerset IN people like
sourage, and specially like a display OF it in the
lace of possible political misfortune.
There is no DOUBT that Cleveland's letter
represents the opinion OF the great majority Of
The strong men. not only in his own party, but
n the Republican party in New York city, and
sonle OF the abiest Of them say today that this
display OF courage will by the time Of the coz
renti0n Of le92 help rather than burt him
But where does Governor Hill come
Ing He has not dared to cater to the
Silver element in the West by coming
put In favor of free coinage and he has
ventured equally little to conciliate
lie conservative judgment OF the
East by openly opposing it. He has
made friends on neither side, and he
las left both with the same
bid impression that he is slippery,
tricky, elusive, eyasive, selfish,
shallow. and altogether unworthy
Of confidence. We are assured that
he letter of invitation similar to that
sent Mfr. Cleveland was sen TO Gov
amor Hill. He has never taken any
notice of it. Perhaps he will try the
Natterson dodge over again, and say
it never reached him.

The fact that the late General Spin
ner met his death from a cancer caused
by an abrasion on the o produced
by eyeglasses may stimulate somewhat
the use of lorgnettes. To those who
actually need them the lorgnette is a
most convenient substitute for perfect
vision. Every near sighted woman
who finds herself daily graphing in
blindness for the elusive, slender cord,
OF her smaller eyeglass will attest to
this. A lorgnette thrust in the cor
sage or hanging from the wrist is
quickly secured. 1t is also more easily
adjusted and less painfully used than
the other sort. Its abuse, however, in
the hands OF vulgar, snobbish women,
who use it merely for effect, has much
c~urtailed its legitimate use.
