be a monthly humorist in cherries
time is drearier.
Others beside Twain have been CON-
PEELED TO be amusing when the heart is
well nigh breaking with grief. The COM
edian on the stage and the clown in the
circus have each spoken their comic lines
and gone through their funny antics
when wife or child was lying at deaths
door. and only the stern necessity, inn
posed by poverty, could drive them to
accept what Twain calls "lhe grisly gro
tesqueness of the situation" Then, too
we have read how Grimaldi, the great
clown, whose life was written by no less
q hand than that of Charles Dickens, in
fit of consuming melancholy went to
London's most famous practitioner for a
remedy, and how that scientific gentle
man told his unknown patient that he
needed amusement, something to make
him laugh, and, as the best advice science
had, said:
"Go and see Grimaldi p
"Alasl" exclaimed the melancholy pa.
tient, "alas, am Grimaldi."

excellent portrait of him. He appears in
it as handsome man, with very bright,
alert look. His hair was worn longer
than the convent onal shingle, or "con-
vict cut" then, as now, popular, per-
mitted, and he wore mustache and
beard, the latter short on the cheeks, but
rather long on the chin and flowing

could afford to give the Penn Farms
away. AS they are used now they are
Improbable. We take 1t for granted
that thsy have been managed in wise
and prudent manner Still they are I'M
prof able to the corporation. There is
no reason for supposing that they will
ever be better managed than they have
been managed heretofore. A city has
no business with property and the his
tory Of these farms shows that New
Castle has derived no advantage
from this property. Now IL those
farms were In the possession of private
citizens they would bring a larger
income to the city from taxes aud would
be used so as to bring greater profit to
their owners. The city gains nothing by
keeping them, while her growth is mate
rally retarded by their impeding bound
cries. Thus the city would gain by sell
ing the farms, investing the money
to bear interest and collecting the
taxes from the land at its increased
valuation in private hands. The city
would not be the loser even by allowing
the property to revert to the heirs or to
escheat to the commonwealth.

Il Is curious coincidence that Chief
Justice Comegys and the nondescript
writer Of the Every Evening accuse each
other Of the same error-that OF appear
ing to the public in an unusual, If not
unprotessional manner.
We have the highest admiration for
Chief Justice Comegys as a iurist Of pro-
found learning and Of rare ability. He
has not heartier, an hOnester, or a more
loyal admirer in Delaware than the EVEN
ING JOURNAL.
But our sincere admiration does not
cloud our minds so as to exclude our
kindly criticism that his opinions deliv-
cred of Of the bench, given on tae i'm
pulse Of the moment, do not merit the
same reverence that his logical and con
vincing opinions delivered from the
bench have commanded
We, in common with the people Of
Delaware, regard him as the Chief Justice,
and as CHIEF justice, hence it is painful
to have him appear in any other capacity
than that of a learned, calm interpreter
of the law. and an expounder of Justice
who has won and holds the affection Of
the people.
The case Of the Every Evening is diff.
ferent. 1t is always liable to do some
tang uaprofessiensl. 1t frequently puts
an editorial in the advertising columns
and displays an advertisement in the
editorial columns. 1t is the dullest paper
In Delaware, snd one of, il not the odd
est and most fearfully made up paper in

IT is the universal practice of the
courts to require trustee or a guardian
to report at stated periods the invest
ments he makes of trust funds, to keep
separate accounts with each estate and
turn over all the profits that may accrue
from the money or property Of the estate
II that be law and equity in regard to the
estate OF minor entrusted TO the care
Of guardian, why should IL not be the
case with treasurer who is entrusted
with the care Of public funds2 There
can be but one reply to the question
whather a trustee has a right to
use trust funds for private purposes.
The question has long been settled Ia the
courts, so that If the accounts Of public
officer should come into court snd the
evidence should be adduced to show that
he had used the public funds to increase
his private wealth, he would be com
PEELED to diseorge. In this era Of wild
speculation and haste to be rich, 1t is
requisite that the public should form a
clear conception Of the duties of trus
tee, private or public The Canadian
colony has been built up because bankers
and treasurers could not resist the temp
tation to use other peoples money for
their own purposes. No man can tell
whether his speculations will result
favorably or not; hence it Is not only
immoral but imprudent for him to use
money which is not his own.
