nav last encounter with such a crowd,
which really seemed more like hydra
headed monster than mass OF actual human
beings endowed with the usual attributes OF
mankind. A few years ago we were III Paris
during some national celebration and
were stopping at hotel near the
spot where some gorgeous fireworks
were to be exhibited that evening
We had just finished dinner and were
wishing that we might in some way see the
display. which We were told was to be un.
commonly fine, when one Of the attaches OF
the English embassy, who was an old
friend Of ours, came in and proposed that
A and l should go out for an hour or
so and see If we could not catch glimpse
of what was going on. Perhaps you had
better take your courier, said the young
Englishman. as we might possibly get Into
a crowd, although If we remain on the out
skirts there is no danger So bidding Wal
ensteiD, a huge German wh0.was acting
temporarily as our valet-de-place, to accom-
pany us, we sailed forth and turned up the
continuation of the Rue de Ia Pax, which
leads to the gardens OF the Tuillerfes.
How it ever happened L do not know,
but we had hardly reached the corner when
we were caught by two opposing currents
of people. aud before we knew it we were
in actual danger. OF all sickening horrible
sensations, that feeling of being among
Christian people turned for the nOnce into
veritable wild beasts is the very worst. no
mercy. no pity, no possible appeal to be
made? Every one pushing, struggling

Revolution and of those terrible women OF

full violence. realizing all at once how
the good-natured, smiling citoyennes could
be transformed into tho typical yirago OF
history. Fortunately, We happened TO be
just on the edge of the crowd. Mr. 5
threw his arms around US and shouted for
the gendarmes. claiming their protection in
his official character, while the faithful
Wallenstein acted as a bulwark on the
other slde-sinking, however, just as the
French policemen reached us, with his leg
badly fractured. AS for us, although badly
bruised and terribly shaken, we escaped
without injury, and Mr.. s. had only
slight sprain in his wrist. We were not
surprised, although greatly shocked. 10 hear
the next morning that thirteen people had
been crushed to death in that awful
crowd

of Affairs.
The two would-be bosses of the Demo-

effected division OF the labor of running
the machine and by means of the new plan
hope to relieve themselves of great deal of
work.
From this time on Sullivan is to handle
the candidates for nominations and Dryer
will look out for the "heefers."
This was tile result of con ference held
Wednesday at the Nevada block, in which
Sullivan complained that his time Was so
greatly taken up that he had not an oppor-
| tunity TO attend TO his private business,
Then, too, he had had a complaint from
the manager of the building.
The man who runs the elevator Quit
work; ana In spite OF extra inducements
in the way OF salary refused to return to-
work. He had been at his post Of duty for
something like ten years and had never
missed day: In season and out OF season
he was always found on hand, but this
time he toek off hrs gloves and refused to
work any longer -
| After being pressed for an explanation he
admitted that twas because of the peculiar
scent attached to the breaths Of the great
throng OF visitors: who went daily to cali
upon Sullivan.
The FOUNDERS were therefore thrust upon
Dwyer and in future he will herd "Brien"

The little town of Delmar, Del, which
narrowly escaped destruction by fire little

southern boundary Of Delaware, and is the
last station on the Delaware railroad be-
lore the territory of Maryland is reached.

nate him This decision is perverslon
of the humane rule which relieves person
charged with crime, and also witness IN
case of a criminal nature, of obligation to
answer questions providing the answer VIII
tend 10 criminate the person so testfylng.
The rule at best is an obstruction to the
cause of justice, but when it is applied to
civil cases it becomes n transparent device
to defeat the purposes of the law. Doyle
and his company were not being tried for a
criminal offense. The penalty in case OF
conviction was q fine or disabilities conse-
Quent upon having violated a law. But
when Doyle refused to testify the case be.
came one of contempt of court, with the
penalty of Imprisonment if he persisted I'D
his refusal to testify.
The case is important mainly as showing
how completely the Federal courts are con-
trQlled by corporations. The rule which
permits Doyle to refuse to testify will apply
to any of his subcrdinateS who may have
participated in the act of cutting rates OF
which Doyle was charged. How then are
railroad managers or their subOTdnates to
be held answerable to the law? They need
only say that an answer will tend 10
incrimjnate them aud they can go and do
it again. The argument in favor Of HE
tenure Of the Judiciary is that it enables
them to be independent Ii may enable
them to be independent. but apparently 1t
does not force them to be. The fact OF a
mans holding Office for life and drawing a
salary after reaching a certain age should
lay the foundation of an ideal court 1t
enables a Judge to snap his fingers at Presi-
dents. Governors, railroad magnates and
trust associations. But no one has heard
Federal Judges fingers snap recently, ex-
cept in the solitary instance where Judge
Gresham sent a witness to prison for re-
fusing to testify in similar case.
