The Philharmonics,

The New York Philharmonic are coming
and the tickets for sale by members Of the
Y. NJ. G. A. are going very fast. The Phil
harmonics are undoubtedly the finest mu-
steal organization in the country, and Miss
Marion Weed is indeed one of Americas
finest singers. An eastern paper speaks in
the following highly complimentary terms
of this celebrated club:
The New York Philharmonic club visited
Albany last evening, and appeared at T,wad-
die hall to give the first OF the Young
Mems association entertainments for the
present season. The hall was completely
filled by an audience that was remarkable
for its size and culture, and especially for
its careful attention to the minutest details
of the beautiful music interpreted. No
one left the hall until the last bar was fin
ished, and a pin might have been heard to
drop during pianissimo passages. When
we add that the Philharmonic club far aur-
passed our most s%anguine expectations, it ia
merely saying that the concert proved thor
oughly delighted in every respect. The
members of the club performed with such
universal excellence that it would be a diff
foult and thnakless task to c~ritlcise or dis
crlmlnate. The concerted selections were
gwen With perfect taste and finish, and
with a volume actually surprising in such a
small orchestra. Indeed, it is not too much
to say that the same effect could not have
been attained by three or -four times the
number OF Indifferent artists. The Phil
harmonic completely filled the hall,-Al-

GOOD 0 STORIES.

On a summer day, when the great heat
had caused a general thirst, a lion and a
bear came at the same moment to a spring
to drink, says the Texas Siftings. They
fercely disputed which of them should drink
hrst, and were soon engaged in a quarrel,
in which one did not gain much advantage
over the other, while both suffered very
much. On their stopping to take breath
for a fercer renewal Of the strife. they saw
some crows on the fence waiting to feast on
the one that should fall first. They at once
made up their quarrel, saying: 'Tt is better
for as to make friends than to become food
of the mugwumps and independents" The
beauty of the foregoing little fable is that
the reader, according to his politics, can
apply it to Blaine and Harrison or to Cleve-
land and Hill,

A MATURE woman who has not re-
spect enough for the dignity OF her
sex to cast of dolls and pinatores,
paregoric and pantalets in names
ought to be reminded that the quality
of intellectual force thus indicated is
not quite enough for the teachers
rank. The marvel is that women do
not themselves feel tho danger OF in
viting familiarity by tolerating pet
names after they are grown beyond the
age Of kitties and doggies. No woman
OF high breeding would permit any
one except members Of her own family
to address her by her childhood 5

cause many Of the names belittled into
contempt are themselves so fine, SO
rich in "reminiscences SO inspiring to
high ideal and worthy self-esteem.

IT has been forced upon the atten-
ton of a nominally Christian people
that neither God nor nature created a
pauper nor denied to their creatures
an abundance Of LIES necessaries.
The lesson OF this truth has led to the
admission that human suffering must
be traced to mans inhumanity to man.
Accepting the logic, the man OF
wealth il appalled, at the outlook. 1t
is impossible even for the most veal
thy to appreciably minimize the suf-
fering by which they are constantly
surrounded. Simple arguments dem,
onstrate that such an attempt would
result only in increasing by one, at
least, the number Of claimants for
public charity.

The day of the professional politi-
clan has undoubtedly begun to wane.
The people OF this country are getting
sufficiently posted to think for them
selves and do not need to be told how
to vote. The time was when the pro-
fessional politicians could put upon
the people any sort OF candidate that
they choose, and the voters would
blindly elect him. That day is in the
dim misty past as it were. Now, II a
candidate is not acceptable to the
party at large, he is simply ignored at
the polls. and the other fellow gets
