According to the Dubuque Herald the
PresidenU is credited with the announce
nent that he will not appoint anybody but
lawyers to the vacancies in the interstate
commerce commission. He evidently be-
Iieves that lawyers alone are competent to
perform the duties incumbent upon mem
hers of that body. If he had applied this
rule when selecting his cabinet James G.
Blaine, the very ablest of all his ministers.
would not be Secretary Of State. and if the
rule had been applied in England Gladstone
would never have been prime minister
This Iowa editor also expresses the opinion
that there are in the United States scores
of men who never practiced at the bar who
would make as able commissioners as any
who have. Very possibly he may be right.
1t sounds reasonable enough. Possibly the
gentleman may also be looking for job
somewhat like that.

How the Fruit Turned Red.
rom the Boston Ne,cS.

From the Boston NelcS.
One day when September was leaving the or
chard,
Cheerily singing her pastoral song.
And twirling garland, she met young Octo-
Der,
Brown as berry, a-comng along.
They met and were glad, for they loved one
another.
She flew TO his arms like an innocent dove;
And the birds twittered sweetly and called to
each other,
And even the winds seemed to whisper, "In
love-"
They kissed. and the leaves on the trees all
about them
Fluttered and rustled, and visibly flushed;
The peach. and the pear, and the ounce, and
the apple
Saw. the sweet sight. aud on seeing it
blushed.

According to a recent statement of the
New York Times the United States
government ste mer Albatross is now
about to undertake the task of sur
veying a route for a submarine cable be-
tween San Francisco and Honolulu. 1t was
at FIST feared that the kind of ire needed
for making the soundings could not be pro
cured IN this country. But that obsta le
has been overcome, and an undertaking
that has already been delayed several
months will now be carried out For this
purpose the last congress appropriated
5000. and the Thetis was assigned to the
task. 1t was then hoped to begin it
soon after July l, when the appro-
priation became available; and had
this been do e, it would doubtless
have been substantially completed
by the present time. But the Thetis was
needed in Boring sea, aud other vessels in
the Pacific we're also occupied with urgent
duties. So the survey was postponed,
and will not be completed before mid.
winter. Still this preliminary work is not
part Of any special scheme. Nor does it
commit the government in any way to the
enterprise of actually laying the cable
This latter is under consideration both in
this country and the British colonies, aud
the government performs a valuable work
for whoever may undertake it by showing
whether it is feasible, and by indicating
favorable and unfavorAble routes. As a
company for the purpose OF laying that
cable bad been duly organized with an
opulent limit Of assumed capital the enter
priing organizers now have only 10 await
the surveying Of a suitable route at govern
ment expense and they can then 90 right
ahead aud build the line. That Is part OF
tae munincenee Of tie great "bllllon-dollar
eoDgreaz."

There may be worse actors than John L.
Sullivan. But the people of the United
States have yet to find them This senti-
ment finds hearty approval from the resi-
dents Of far.oR Australia, where John L. and
his combination are now stranded. At
Sydney Sullivan was received in a blaze of
glory. Not on account of his histrionic
ability, but because Of his powers at break
ing jaws Everything went well until the
first night. There was a great number OF
spectators. But the newspapers the next
morning tore out the show. For
once Melbourne and Sydney agreed and the
audiences at the latter place fell
off gradually. Now John L. is bank
rupt and Duncan Harrison is trying to
drown his sorrow. He was defendant in a
case in the district court at Melbourne the
other day. In demonstrating his bravado
he jumped astride horse belonging to a
friend and rode into an oyster saloon. There
a constable arrested him, and the Judge be-
fore whom the case was heard fined him 5
shillings and COSTS AS soon as Sullivan and
Harrison get the money from this country
they are coming home. Perhaps by the
time he gets here Sullivan may conclude to
quit acting the fool and go to fighting some
more. Or he might altogether reform and
take his legitimate place under q hod.

Dispatches from Chicago state that Sara
Bernhardt has broken all previous theatre
cal records in that city. With four per-
formances the past week the sales indicate a
total business for the week of over 500, 0OO
This is over $4,000 above the highest fig
ures ever secured by Patti or Henry Irving
at the same house. Yet the local critics say
that her play is crude and lacks dignity,
symmetry and charm" But as the same
critic who makes the above pronunciamento
also solemnly AYERS that one Of the acts con-
cludes in "a situation morally impossi BILE
except from any but a French point of
view" there is wide open question as to
whether he knows anything more about
French plays than he does about English
grammar. Still he Inadvertently makes
very strong point in favor of Bernhardt.
II she surDasses all others with SO bad play
what would she do with good one. But
the box Office receipts indicate unmistak-
ably that the Chicago public has an opinion
overwhelmingly different from that of the
critic

When the first sugar produced under the
new bounty law reached New Orleans last
week from the Westover plantation in West
Baton Rouge parish, and application was
made for the bounty the Internal revenue
Office appointed $50 weighers and sam
piers to handle the sugar as it came in. But
the sugar scales to be used in the business
have not yet arrived from Washington.
Nearly all the planters have notified
the internal revenue Office that
they intend to commence grinding
during October. Twelve have already
begun work and others will be under way
before Oct. 26, the last day fixed by any of
them. 1t is now evident that the crop will
not be as large as expected few months
ago in consequence of the drought in Au-
gust aud September. Notwithstanding an
increase of IL per cent. in the acreage it
will fall below last year. Last spring the
planters called for bounty on $4,000, 900
pounds of sugar, which would have given
them $l1 100000. Indications now are that
the crop will not exceed $40 900, 900
pounds, reducing the bounty they will re-
ceve to Sc, 100000. Vet that's q pretty big
sum to try TO fish out of an empty treasury.

DIDN'T SEE YE, B'cosH."
"A Spooning Couple Run Afoul a Young
Mans Hose.

A young man who boards at the
Warwick took his best girl out for a
drive yesterday. The pair seemed to
enjoy themselves immensely, although
evidently unconscious of their sur.
roundlngs. A kind, omniscient proy;-
dence watched over and guarded them
from perils of collision swith other
vehicles, while they spooned and ogled
each other, but 1T seems there arc
limits to even providential care. Those
who tempt providence are apt to re-
greet the act. 1t was SO with the young
man and his girl. All went well with
them until they turned into East Full
ton street, but just as they We're about
10 pass the Edison Electric Light
works a young man came out with
big fire hose and began to wet down
the street. The stream was coplous
and the pressure was not to be sneezed
at, and just as 1t was turned on at full
head an imprOmptu dog fight began in
the yard. The young man with the
hose struck an attitude like liberty en-
lightning the world and locked over
his shoulder 10 watch the progress OF
the canine debate. At this moment
the young couple managed to get into
line. The horse was jogging along
iazily when the steam biffed him on
the nose, rumbled across his ribs and
then it went into the carriage. The
young lady gave horrified shrek as
the water struck her sqnarely in the
stomach, and her admirer said some
thing that made her shrek again as
the steam plowed across his manly
bosom and wound up with parting
flourish in his ear. The boy with the
hose turned around at this moment and
beheld with horror and dismay the
ruin he had wrought, and iii his agi-
tatlon he swung the stream across his
victims second time.
"I didn't see We at all, b'gosh!" he
exclaimed.
The young man made sudden dive
for his hip pocket, but his gun had
been left ut home, and the boy still
lives.

Not SO Bad as II Might he.

d. F. Comstock, president of the
Big Rapids National Bank and of the
ID. f. Comstock Lumber Company. re-
glstered at the Morton last night. Mr..
Comstock was inclined to believe tnat
if Grand Rapids took an interest in q
Big Rapids man, 1t was for the sole pur-
pose of getting the better of him on a
deal; and he was hopelessly convinced
that Grand Rapids furniture men were
the worst people in the country to sell
lumber to. Still he believed there was
a little good i'll Grand Rapids, and was
looking forward to the time when it
should leaven the whole lump.
