New Iork's chivalrous policeman, John j.
Gallagher, who dubbed poor apple woman
almost to the point of death, has been SEN
fenced TO term of six months imprison-
ment in the penitentiary. The police COM
missioners however, are making strenuous
efforts to have the officer retained on the
force at full salary during the whole term of
his enforced retirement from public duty.
Candidly, it is asserted that the advice of the
woolly West to New York's police commits
sloners is to the effect that, for the credit of
old Father Knickerbocker. they would better
let Gallagher go-nor allow him to stand
upon the order of his going.

Hackly-That boy of yours is running his
constitution with tobacco. You should give
him some good advice.
Stackly-I dare not DO it.
Hackly-Why so?
Stackly-I am afraid he would put it in his
pipe and smoke it.
b. Harrison is almost as mysterious about
his offensive war preparations against Chill

ical movements. They are a coy pair. Benny

The statement gravely announced BY

public of a latent suspicion that he was an

far as Kansas City is concerned the talent"
is playing that town as forty-to-one shot.
A few days ago since Sunrise Signals"
modestly suggested that, inasmuch as James
@. Blaine Jr. had sworn in court that the
watch he then wore belonged to his father it
would be an act of justice on the part of
Blaine pere to present Blaine fills on Christ
mas day with something in the way of q
lmepiece. current note in an Eastern
daily states that Secretary Blaine has given
fine gold watch to his son as a Christmas
present. We are now sorry to admit that this
was a free ad., but it appears to have been
fully as efficacious as if it had commanded
regular rates in the Small Wants columns.
The attention of st. Paul and Minneapolis
citizens is earnestly directed to the above
fact, which points its own moral. Meanwhile
itshould not be forgotten that the GLOBE is
the popular advertising medium. and goes
everywhere.
That fertility of resource in seizing upon
the right thing at the right time, clipping it
out OF another newspaper and publishing it
as strictly original matter, amounts almost
to genius, and is certainly, a passion with a
few editors of some of our esteemed con-
temporaries. Still, we are free to admit that
it is evidence of a peculiarly mendacious
genius and should not be fostered like the
more prosaic infant industries of America
Says the Milwaukee Sentinel: Delegates
