Italv's Hastv Action.

The whole country will be as much sur
prised at the action of Italy in recalling her
minister as the President and his cabinet
were yesterday when they were informed
OF the matter. The Italian government is
dissatisfied because our government did not
state positively that those who killed the
Italians in the New Orleans prison would
be punished, but that government has no
reason to be dissatisfied. Its demand for
some sort Of reparation was not ignored.
1t was promptly considered, and the only
reply that was possible was made. When
the New Orleans grand jury that is now in~
vestigating the killing of the Italians makes
Its report our government will then deter
mine what else 1t can do.
But the Italian government should be
and probably will be given to understand
that our government will not submit to any
bulldozing tactics. 1t will do all it can to
right any wrong that Italy may have suf-
fered from Americans, but it will follow
the usual course in such matters. 1t will
not be hurried by threats or buster.
OF course there will be good deal of
war talk, but there will be no war. Indeed,
it is probable that Italy's recall of her min
lister will be only temporary sensation.
But whatever her purpose in recalling him
is, the policy Of our government relative to
the New Orleans affair will not be changed
in the least

Look for a Plain BLACK Tie.

His necktie was worth $4,000 a plain.
black, ordinary looking, everyday four-in-
hand, but worth $4,000. He was a traveller
who had just come in on the Santa Fe route
direct from Arizona, and he removed his coat
and vest preparatory to cleaning his cinder-
specked face in the lavatory of a prominent
Michigan avenue MOTEL, says the Chicago NelUs.
With the carelessuess of a western man he
hung his coat and vest on contiguous chair
but his necktie, his four-in-had, he carefully
rolled up in a small compass and thrust deep
into his trousers pocket.
This unusual exhibition of caution excited the
curiosity OF friend, and the natural query,
WhereforeY' developed most ingenious de-
vice.
That necktie is worth just $4,000, plus the
cost price of the article itself Sabe?''
The smile of incredulity brought the valuable
piece of black silk to view again. With his
enknife the traveller opened the seam and, un-
folding the ripped portions. dazzled the eyes of
the skeptic with ten crisp, clean $1,000 bills.
Ten thousand dollars on this end and the same
ante on the other, Beats money belt all
hollow.
Twas held up by the James and Younger
boys in Blue Clay cut one time, and Jim
Younger ran his hand over my body and felt
the money belt, and handed over just S., 200.
But what thief, or son of thief, would ever
look twice at a 50-cent necktie2
They might corral it if it was red or yellow
or even sky blue, but plain black is too unob-
trusive, for those chaps run to high color. This
plan is better than the porous plaster scheme,
too. Never heard of it?
well, next time you travel with more ready
cash than you care to have obtainable, step into
drug store and buy two porous plasters. Fold
your wad neatly and fiat. wrap around it a
piece of oiled silk and stick a plaster over it
and on to the outside of the other plaster. Then
slap the double-deck plaster on your chest and
no ones the wiser.
But the four-in-haud racket's the best" and
the man with the $50, 900 necktie gave it final
twist as he tied it around his collar, slipped on
his vest and coat and walked out, serene and
secur'. with twenty 81 900 bills snugly hid away
in his queer safety deposit vault.

The venerable and sanity minister, DIR.
Arson. has gone to his heavenly home. and
the whole city is sad. All the people knew
him, and they loved him, for he was a
good man and a lovable one He had a
kind word for everybody, and he made no
distinction between the rich and the poor
| He who dwelt in a hovel received from him
as warm a pressure OF the hand as he who
occupied a mansion. The cry of distress.
from whatever cause and from whatever
source, touched bis heart profoundly, and
aroused his sympathies.
In all the years OF his ministry, and they
were many, there was nothing regrettable
in his conduct. aud there could not have
been, because bis heart was pure and his
purposes high. His life was as an open
book which all could read, and it contained
lessons which made better those who learned
them.
Aud what a noble work he did 1t ex-
tended through more than half a century,
aud its influence will be felt by coming
generations. 1t consisted not alone in ex-
planning the scriptures and drawing lessons
from them and doing other church duties.
1t was in part the living daily the life Of a
christian, so that men and women we're
drawn to the Savior by the force of his
example.
He spoke evil of no one, and yet he never
hesitated to rebuke sinners. And no one
ever Questioned his sincerity or his courage.
When pestilence was abroad and death was
claiming victims by the hundreds he was at
his post, performing every duty required of
him. He knew no fear. He was absolutely
certain Of the future.
his heart was as tender as a child's. The
joys and sorrows of the people to whom he
ministered were his. But his sympathies
were not confined to his congregation.
They were with those who suffered every
where, and that is how the whole city came
to know him and to respect and love him
he needs no monument to keep alive his
memory. One generation will hand down
to another the name and saint-lllze charac-
ter of this good man whose great aud low
ing heart is still in death.

A Lesson in Law.

Fattson IN Training.

! The Pennsylvania papers are confident
that Gov. Pattison Of that state is 10 train
/ ing for the democratic nomination for Pres
/ ident And it is probable that they are
right Gov. Pattison has had a phenomenal
career. He is only about 40 years Of age,
and yet he has been elected governor twice,
although the republican majority in Penn
sylvania is very large, and he has held i'm
portant elective Offices in Philadelphia,
Notwithstanding the fact that Philadelphia
is a republican city. For some reason or
other the people have confidence in him.
That he is an honest man, and keeps steadily
in view the interests of the people, there is
no doubt. he has never been machine
politician.
It is alleged, however, that he is now con
structing a political machine which he
hopes will be able to send a solid Pattison
delegation from Pennsylvania to the ma
tionsl democratic convention next year. In
making appointments he has chosen demo-
Gratis who WELD the greatest political influ-
elce, and he does not appear to be making
any mistakes IN the administration Of his
office.
During his first term as governor he ap-
pointed independent republicans as well as
democrats TO offices within his gift This
he did in recognition OF the fact that if it
had not been for the repuo licau votes he re-
ceived he would not have been elected But
republican votes helped to make him gov
ernor second time, and he is not now APP
pointing republicans to office. Republicans
could not help to give him solid delega-
ton to the national democratic convention.
Aud, BESIDES he is under no obligations to
the republicans. he was not the republican
candidate for governor and he made no
promises to republicans during the guber-
material campaign. He is therefore free to
appoint whom ne pleases.
There is not much doubt that Pennsyl-
vania in the national democratic convention
will be for him for President. And they
can say great deal for him as a candidate.
But it is doubtful if they can say enough to
make him a strong candidate for the nomi.
nation. 1t is about certain that he could
not carry Pennsylvania in national cam
paign. and the certainty that he could not
would cause his name to be stricken off the
list Of available candidates. 1t would seem
to be folly to nominate man who could
not carry his own state. But il Gov. Patti
son could carry Pennsylvania he would
stand an excellent chance of being the next
President.
Gov. Hill has much better chance for
the nomination than Gov. Pattison, because
it is pretty certain that he can carry New
York, but neither Hill nor Pattison is we'll
known outside of their respective states.
As yet Mr.. Cleveland is the man who at
tracts the most atten ton in connection with
the democratic presidential nomination.
He can carry New York if any democrat
can, and, besides, he is very popular in all
other parts Of the country. There is no
sentiment for either Hill or Pattison in the
south or west that is worth noticing. But
the efforts Hill aud Pattison are making for
the nomination are very earnest and are
not overlooked by the students of current
politics

Subsidies onlv for New sb,ns.

According to the statements of New
York shipper there is a great surprise in
store for the owners of existing steamship
lines. In his opinion there is pretty good
chance that many who were members of
the last congress will be somewhat surprised
themselves at the Postmaster Generals
construction Of the recently adopted mail
subsidy bill
Heretofore the general suppositiou has
been that large portion of the subsidy was
to be devoted to existing lines in case others
were not organized. But the Postmaster
General is said to have stated in reply to
inquiries that he contemplates devoting it
chiefly to the building up of new lines.
Whence he derived arbitrary control of the
appropriation the interested people are
anxious to know. Some of them claim to
have worked hard to secure the appropria-
ton, and now that it is available they feel
very much cut up over Mr.. Wanamaker's
manifest disposition to take entire charge of
it.
One of the best Of American lines runs to
the West Indies. When the manager re-
Gently called at the poseoffice department in
dead smooth" little scheme to shut out ex-
isting lines and turn the whole fund into
new enterprises, his jaw dropped in blank
amazement, and he proceeded to state that
he was then experiencing victimized SEN
sation. That's the way good many others
feel about it after putting In their hardest
ticks to influence it for their own advau-
tage.
Whether Mr.. Wanamaker is really au-
thorized by the act to take complete control
OF the fund and do with it as he wishes is
not altogether clear. But it certainly does
not sound likely. Had the bill appropriating
the money been at all ambiguous on this
point there is little chance that the big
lobby of established steamship interests
would have been in Washington to push 1t
through. They are not in the habit of
working and spending money merely for
patriotic purposes.
Should Mr.. Wanamaker eventually find
himself in full control of the subsidy and
devote it wholly to developing the Amerl-
can shipping interests, he would undoubt-
eddy do great service for the country. But
there is no great probability that he in-
tends doing such thing. More likely his
ultimate purpose is to turn over the fund
to some pet organization that will endure
no longer than the subsidy lasts-in the
event that he finds it can be withheld from
existing lines.

Not REQUIRED to Retract.

Bishop Leonard. of Ohio, acting upon a
sober second thought, has greatly modified
his judgment in the case Of the Rev. Mr..
MacQueary, of Canton, o., who was re-
Gently found guilty by an ecclesiastical
court of publishing doctrines contrary to
those of the church. The court did not in
its verdict require that Mr.. MacQueary
should retract or be expelled. And Bishop
Leonard has modified his judgment in so
far as to require only that Mr.. MacQueary
shall promise not to teach or publish within
the diocese of Ohio his vie VS. relative to the
birth and resurrection of our Savior.
Under this requirement Mr.. MacQueary
can hold what views he pleases in private,
and may teach what he pleases outside Of
Ohio.
1t seems that Bishop Leonard became
convinced that he had exceeded his author
ity, and that in changing the verdict Of the
court he had done something which prom
ised to introduce discussions into the church.
He therefore promptly recalled his decision
and modified it so that it would be less OBJ
jectionable.
1t is probable that Mr.. McQuearv will
give the required promise and remain In
the church. The prompt action of the
bishop has caused, in all probability, the
postponement of discussion that might
have resulted in harm to the cause of re-
igion.

Washington military circles are still agi-
tated by the negro battalions of the District
National Guard. They show an inclination
to make themselves disagreeable since their
reinstatement by the President. Nothing
that Gen. Ordway can do appears to satisfy
them, and they are said to be drawing the
color line with a degree of precision that
evokes no little amusement Their conduct
indicates that they are disposed to think
that whites who were loath to associate
with them before shall not associate with
them now. even though they want to. Yet
there is nothing to show that the whites are
suffering greatly from the punishment thus
inflicted
