LONG AND NARROW.


 The most notable incident of the Demo- cratic convention which has been disturb ing the peace of New Haven was the Burning down" of the most representative Democrat of the lot, the Hon. W. w. Eaton. He deserved better treatment, and he will be justified in profound reflection upon ths ingratitude of Democrats.
 The platform adopted by the convention is real curiosity. If it were as broad as it is long it would perhaps furnish stand ing room for it's adopters, but it is decided ly narrow. It consists principally of "charges" and "condemns." It charges Mckinley with a stagnation of industries which doesn't exist. It arraigns the ad- ministration of Benjamin Harrison for be- slowing most of his appointments upon little statesmen, and for not, we suppose, giving fat jobs to the gigantic Democratic statesmen who are so eagerly looking for office. It condemns Governor Bulkeley for not giving up his office to Judge Nor ris before the latter was declared elected It condemns Secretary Walsh for holding on to his office in accordance with law and precedent. Treasurer Henry is also similarly condemned. And finally the constitution of the State and its "incoher- ent amendmets" are also condemned. But "the integrity, statesmanship and lofty patriotism" of the late Grover Cleveland are said to be all right.
 We fail to find in this Iono and narrow platform any condemnation of the grip and any arraignement of the Republican party for not checking its ravages. This is mistake. If the responsibility for this disease can be fastened upon the Republi- can party its defeat will be certain. If it cannot we are afraid that all the charges. the condemnations, and the arraignments above alluded to will not alone be eufH- cient te drive 1t ont of power.

The ParI.ian'. Love for the rhe.ter.

The Parisian's Love for the Theater.
 w. F. Apthorp in scribner.l
 The French love for the theater can hardly be oyerestimsted. They love it for its own sake, for what they see and hear there. Even in Paris it is only the more thoughtless votaries of pleasure, the busy idlers of the Thigh life" (pronounced 'isg- leaff'O who look upon the theater merely as one of the many environments in which social business Is to be conducted. The sort of unreasoning automatic attraction toward the theater, the love for its very atmosphere, and the daily recurring home sickness for its thronged auditorium and deoxidated air, that one finds in almost all classes in Italy, are not characteristic of the average Frenchman, nor even the CTS" aside, you will find that when the Paris idler goes to the theater, or to 6 con- cert, he does SO with the perfectly fired intent of enjoying himsslf in a definite and predetermined way; he is careful to known beforehand just what he is to see or hear, and makes up his mind that the entertainment will be to his liking before he buys his ticket. Once at the theater, his absorption in what goes on on the stage is complete. and his disappointment cor respondingly acute if the performance does not please him. Then, when bore dom has fastened upon him-the thing ir life he most abhors-he becomes a most unpleasant person to act to. The tradi- tional cool apathy of a Boston audience does not begin to be the wet blanket to an actors fire that the unconcealed boredom of Paris house is. Loud expressions of disspproval have gone out of fashion, and are rather frowned down, but an uneasy restlessness of house face to face with @ dull play is communicative, and more elo- quent of discontent than misses and cat calls. And the Paris;an seldom, if ever, takes refuge in that favorite resource of the American when he finds himself bored: leaving the theater before the play is over and going home He likes his dramatic or musical pleasure in large doses, partly as 6 matter of taste and partly also for req sons of economy; for an evening out means a saving of fire wood and lamp oil at home.

The "Looking Backward" people in Mas sachusetts are much disappointed by the decision of the Supreme court against the constitutionality of the proposed legisls- tion for the establishment of municipal coal and wood yards. They did not expect such decision, for two years ago the court held, in considering the nature of public service, that, while it was often question of kind and degree, in general matters which concern the welfare and convenience of all the inhabitants of city or town and which cannot be successfully dealt with without the aid of powers derived from the legislature, may be subjected to muni- cipal control when the benefits received are such that each inhsbitant needs them and may participate in them and it is for the interest of each inhabitsnt that others as well as himself should possess and enjoy them. But the court does not look upon the municipal fuel scheme as " one of the ends for which the govern ment was established, or as @ public ser vice for which cities and towns may be authorized to tax their inhabitants" How ever, it also says that it is not called upon " to consider what extraordinary powers the commonwealth may exercise, or may authorize cities and towns to exercise, in extraordinary exigencies. for the safety of the State, or the welfare of the inhabi- tants."
 The backward lockers can find some comfort in the dissenting opinion of Jus tice Holmes, who says: "When money is taken to enable public body to offer to the public, without discrimination, an article of general necessity, the purpose is no less public when that article is wood or coal than when it is water, or gas, or cleo tricity or education, to say nothing of cases like the support of paupers or the taking of land for railroads or public mar kets." This is decidedly socislistic, but
 the majority rules, and the Massachusetts
 socialists have received quite setback.

Entering I'm.

The church was dim and silent With the hush before the prayer; Only the solemn trembling
 or the organ stirred the air. Without, the sweet, pale sunshine; Within, the holy calm, Where priest and people waited For the swelling of the psalm. Slowly the door swung open, And a little baby girl, Brown-eyed, with brown hair falling In many a wavy curl, With soft cheeks flushing hotly, Sly glances downward thrown. And small hands clasped before her, Stood in the aisle alone. Stood half abashed, half frightened, Unknowing where to go, While like a wind-rocked flower Her form swayed to and fro; And the changing color fiuttered In the lIttle troubled face, As from site to side she wavered With a mute, imploring grace. It was but for a moment;
 What wonder that we smted- By such O strange, sweet picture From hoy thoughts beguiled. Up, then rose some one softly, And many an eye grew dim, As through the tender silence He bore the child with him. And long wondered, losing The sermon and the prayer, If when som- time enter

 examination was held in Melbourne for shorthand writers in the courts. Out of thirteen only six passed the test of 120 words minute, and fewer still the test of 15O. Sir John Thurston, who had tried to engage a stenographer for correspond enoe, offering s1,0OO year and board, complained that most of the applicants
