AN INTERESTING DECISION,

BY Which Security Company Scores Quite
.. Triumph.
NEW YORK, March l9.-Judge Beach, in the
Supreme Court here, to-day rendered an i'm
portant decision. The issue had been raised as
TO the suffieiency Of the American Surety Com
pany to act as surety for the Brooklyn Railroad
Company, because the American Surety had
invested in the bonds of another surety COM
pany. The American Surety Company. besides
guaranteeing bank and other employees. makes
q business of furnishing the bonds required by
the courts. Some persons obtain these bonds
In preference to asking friends to become their
sureties, and others because they have no
friends able to Justify, or else none willing to
cucumber their property with such obligations.
In this way the American Surety Company has
become very useful institution, hence the
recent attack upon it attracted wide attention,
and its triumph gives general satisfaction.
Among LAWYERS the company Is regarded as a
convenient adjunct to the dispatch of business,
and most judges welcome its guarantee a
relief from the perplexIng and often unpleas-
ant duty of passing upon the suficiency of per-
sonal security. Whenever the company be-
comes surety for custodians or estates such as
administrators. guardians, etc.. it exercises
over the fiduciary such constant supervision as
precludes malfeance. This supervision is so
effective that up to the present the company
has sustained no loss. Judge Beach decided
against the issue raised and approved Of the
COMPANY as surety.

st. Louis Globe-Democrat.l
The bagpipe is almost universal through
out Asia, though at present not so much in
use as it seems to have been in former ages.
1t is used among the Chinese musicians,
and is met with in Persia, where 1t appears
to have been more general in former ages
than at present. There is also Hindoo bag
pipe. and in Egypt it was used to some ex-
tent, but is now rarely met with. In Italy it
is common. 1t is said that the Italian
peasant believes that it is the best beloved
music of the Virgin Mary; also that 1t is
the instrument upon which the shepherds
expressed their joy when they visited the
Saviour. When the Italian peasants visits
Rome on the anniversary of the birth of our
Saviour, he always carries his bagpipes
with him. The Romans are said to have
been acquainted with this instrument, and
most likely the Greeks also. In Scotland
it is the national instrument, but even there
its use is diving out

TO GET OUR Mr.. REILLY.

Gus Schmelz, of Columbus, on Hand to
Play a Little Game.
The American Association magnates are de-
termined to get even with their opponents even
though they have to resort to the work of max
ing ball players into thieves. Last evening Gus
Schmelz, manager Of the Columbus club,
quietly dropped into town with the object of
getting Third Baseman Reilly back to the Ohio
city. He is also trying to sign Jimmy Calvin
for the Columbus club. 1t is under
stood that Mr. Reilly is wanted to fol-
low the example of O'Connor, that is.
to decamp with the Pittsburg money already
advanced him. But it is safe to say that Mr..
Reilly is of nober quality than characters
who swinde or embezze. and that he has In
telligence enough to know that he has a future
to protect both as bail player and gentle
man. For any ball player worthy of the name
to leave the National League at the present
time and join disorganized mob Ike the Amer
lean Association is just like deserting a sub
stance to grasp a shadow.
Mr. Reilly could not be found at his hotel
last evening, and therefore, his opinion on the
matter could not be secured.

Against Their Baseball Schedule.
Boston, March l9.-Baseball games pro-
visionally arranged between the Harvard Col
lege and Princeton mines are not approved by
the Harvard Athletic Commit ee, which at its
monthly meeting adopted the following:
That the schedule of games arranged with
Yale for May 16 30 and June Is and % be ap-
proved; that the schedule of games arranged
with Princeton for May 2 8. II and the game
with Yale June "a be not approved.
The reason which influenced the committee
probably was that dates for the games with
Princeton wereset too early IN the season to
make them fair test of the final strength of
the two mines. An effort will probably be made
to arrange later dates with Princeton.

Mr.. Parnell, will not be invited to Baltimore.
Those who sympathize with Ireland's cause
in this city will not encourage the
envoys in their mission or contribute
funds for their aid. The Home Rule
members of Parliament must settle their
internecine difficulties and the question of
leadership The man who is chosen will be ac-
cepted by US as the head of the Home Rule
party, and then, If ENJOYS are sent over here to
obtain assistance for the cause we will do all
in our power for them.
"As it is now. the Parnell ENJOYS are trying
to settle their factional difficulty In America.
My advice to the ENJOYS is TO 20 home. They
will not collect money enough to pay their
board at the Hoffman House If they should
come to Baltimore on their own account l
hardly think they could attract much of an
audience.
