Street Scenes IN Medieval London.


Walter Besant, in Harper's Magazine for Sept.
The street was noisy with the voices
of those who displayed their wares and
called upon the folk to buy. You may
hear the butchers in Clare Market or the
costers in Whitecross Street keeping up
the custom to the present day. The
citizens walked and talked; the Alder
man went along in state, accompanied
by his officers; they brought out prison
ers and put them into the pillory; the
church bells clashed and chimed and
tolled; bright cloth of scarlet hung from
the upper windows if it was feast
day, or if the Mayor and Alderman had
a riding; the streets were bright with
the colors of that many y-colored time,
when the men Wed with the women in
bravery of attire, and when all classes
spent upon rairnent sums of money, in
proportion to the rest of their expendi-
ture, which sober nineteenth century
folk can hardly believe. Chaucer is full
of the extravaganza in dress. There is
the young squire
"Embrowdd was he, as it were a mede
Al full of freSShe fiOwureS, white and reede.'
Or the carpenters wife
"a seynt [girdlel sche wered, barred al of silk !;
A barm-clOth eek as whit as morn" mylk
Upon hir lendes loinsl full Of m ny gore.
Whit was hir smOk, and brOwdiu = byfOre
And eek bphynde on hir color abOute,
OF cOle-blak silk, withinne and eek withOute y
Or the wife of Bath, with her scarlet
stockings and her fine kerchiefs. And
the knights decked their horses as gayly
as themselves. Now the city notables
went clad in gowns of velvet or silk
lined with fur; their hats were of velvet
with gold-lace; their doublets were of
rich silk; they carried their gold chains
about their necks and massive gold
rings upon their fingers.

WHIT EXPERIENCE TEACHES.

The Reno Gazette has the follow
ing regarding the Legislature and
the Constitution;
At the annual meeting IF the
Board OF Trade, Saturday, there
was good ATTENDANCE AMI much
interest manifested in the economic
questions now agitating the public
mind. There can be no doubt
that the people are fully alive to
the subject. The question to be
decided is how best to proceed to
bring it about. Some claim that to
call a Constitutional Convention
would be dangerous, for fear that
the wiley politician would get
some clause engrafted into tie
document that would make it OBJ
jectionable to the pc pie and they
would not ratify the work, and in
the States present impevis he'd
condition we cannot afford to
spend the $4,000 it would cost to
try the experiment. They claim,
too, that all that is necessary can
be done by the Legislature if the
members will go to work at it with
the intention Of bringing it about.
On the other hand many claim
and we believe the najority-that
Consti utional Convention is the
thing that will bring us the need
ed relief. The Gazette favors a
Constitutional Convention, not be-
cause the relief sought could not !
be had through Legislative enact
ment il the members would do |
their duty, but because past ex-
pelience has t,ught us that they
will not, or have not in years gone
by given US much relief. On the
contrary thay have run things
with a high hand, and actual
made places for defunct politi-
clans. Now even there is a move
ment on foot in this county TO
make another office at the Asylum
to be filled by some old back
number. Nevada has a good
n, but there are too
many loop holes in it for the poll
ticians to crawl through. We be-
lieve il the Legislature would fol-
low out the Gazette's suggestion
made a few days ago,
that it would fully satisfy the peo-
Pile without holding a Constitu-
tional Convention, but whea it
comes to reducing their own num-
Der and cutting down the per
diem, experience has taught us
hat they will not do it.
