The bill in equity flied by the Attor-
ney General with reference to the leases
and agreements known as 1.-The Reading
deal, " lays the Pittsburg Dispatch puts
the legal issue IN clear form. There
has been some dispute as 10 the course
the administration would take in this
matter, but the action of Mr.. Hensel
energetically followed up Will character
ize Governor Patterson's second term
with the sturdy defense OF public rights
against corporate aggression a. his first.
The bill sets forth that the railroads
combined and controlled by the leases
and contracts are parallel for certain
portions; that the principal ones have
been prior to the agreement, competing
for freight and passengers and that they
are all competing in the transportation
and sale OF anthracite coal. 1t might
have averred that the purpose of the
leases and consolidation was the sup
preston of competition; but it meets the
same end by pointing out that the Sc
curing Of the control is in violation of
the Constitution, against public policy,
and void.
This bill will bring the question be
fore the courts authorized TO pass upon
it. Unless the corporations are able tc
show a very different state Of affairs
than that disclosed by the Attorney Gen,
erals bill. the decisions Of the same
courts in the South Penn case leave lit
tie doubt that the leases will be declared
void. But, while securing such deci
sion will be a. decided a credit to At
torney General Hensel as the first cas-,
was to Attorney General Cassiday, thai
will not finish the work. Mr.. Hense
should see that the Constitution Is obey
ed and that the rulings are not nullifeC
in actual practice, as was done in the
South Penn case.
Ii Attorney General Hensel presses
this issue to a complete victory thu

An Escaped Murderer Caught.

James F. Mills, charged with the muir
der of Peter Dugan, was taken back to
Jail at Butler on Saturday from Marien-
vile, where he was recaptured, after a
series of exciting incidents. An i'm
mense crowd awaited the train on which
Mills arrived, and he had to be taken to
prison in closed carriage. Mills will be
tried this week. Peter Dugan was mar
ried December % 1891 He and Mills
worked on the Walsh farm, in the one
hundred-foot oil field. On the previous
night the two men were at dance at
Renfrew, and while under the influence
of liquor they quarreled. The fight re-

it is said that Congressman Scull has not

the conference to-day was for the pur-
pose of effecting an am'cable arrange

THE Senate Finance Committee has di-
rccted q favorable report to be made on

From all directions where workers OF
iron arc employed, says the Philadel-
phia Record, come news of proposed or
accomplished reductions in wages. This
is not the feast to which the working
man was invited when he was implored
to vote for Harrison and Protection"
and against Cleveland and Free Trade
IN order to prevent wage reduction and
assure himself of more butter for his
bread. If he shall learn in this day of
calamity that the ups and downs of
tariffs do not control the ups and downs
of wages the lesson will have been dear
ly learned, but it will be worth all it
cost. II may then be more difficult to
fool the workinSman out OF This vote in
1892 than it was in 1855.

THEN AND NOW.

1t is only a little while. Time is swift
and may be feeting. But the man who
cannot live few years back-even if only
for a moment-has no heart and no soul.
To-day is April first, and what does it
recall: Can you take a fight back through
the years-the years which have been
cruel or those which have been lavish in
gooduess-and remember the pocket-book
you found upon the sidewalk on this
Aprirs Fool Day? Do you remember
when ysu thought you were very funny
by telling your mother to look over yon-
der" and when the dear old soul looked,
you giggled and told her April Fool"
OF course you remember it, and the same
thing was done to day. Done to-day but
not by you. Done by the children who
will grow cid; done by innocence and by
happiness.
The old days are the days We live over;
the days which bring thoughts and pain
and sadness. The new days are the days
We long to see the days which will 60 by
just the same as the old days did-what
they may bring we cannot tell.

who feels that he is yet a boy, pauses to

ALWAYS AT 1T.

Two of the Four Hundred in New
York are still having a pretty time. One
fellow won the affections of the others
wife and the one who lost the wife went
to Aston and made him pay five thou
sands dollars a year. 1t was a case of a
rich father-in-law. But why should such
libertines and such vile creatures be
tolerated, even if they can count their
gains by the million? Why should not
q committee of One Hundred interfere
and demand that the upper crust which
thrusts itself into society when it belongs
to the back kitchen, be made to leave the
town. When ONE poor devil does such
business-wrecks a happy home is bra
zen and indifferent-a quiet crowd of gen.
tlemen should suggest to him that there
are four ways out of the town and he must
take n road or the other. They have a
valise full of tar and q sack of feathers
with them, and the fellow concludes
that he will be going. That's the way
to keep society decent. This thing about
pistols and coffee and Haunting the dirty
scandal into the face of children who
are always curious, should not be toler-
sted. DRAYToN and BoRRowE both
and the woman who deserted her hus-
band should be made skite for tall timber.
That's the business way of it.

Growing Old Gracefully.

What a lovely old lady, heard a
man remark, at the opera, lately. "She's
quite as beautiful as any girlin the house.
Such color and complexion is rarely seen
in a woman past forty"
Indeed, the woman of whom he spoke
was lovely. Her face was clear and
smooth, her cheeks, fresh and rosy, her
eyes bright with perfect health and the
enjoyment of life. She had passed the
critical change of life without falling
into 1.-The sere and yellow leaf" as most
American women do. How had she sue
ceeded in this? Simply by using DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription at a time
when nature stood in need of some assist
ance. She had taken it at the right time.
In doing this she was wise. Wiser than
most woman who trust to luck" in get.
ting through the critical and trying
period safely. This standard remedy is
just what is needed al such a time 1t is,
from girlhood to old age, weman's best
friend. In all diseases peculiar to the
sex, it accomplishes what no other RENE
dry do@-a cure. Take it, woman, when
life's autumn begins, and grow old grace
fully" Your money back if it doesn't
help you.

AS TO A.

A subject is that which a physician
yearns for-what a king possesses and
what an editor would walk ten miles to
secure. THE GLOBE, in writing its numer-
Gus columns of rot, oftentimes gets out
Of subjects. Running a one horse paper
in a small town it will not do to tackle
questions of international Importance or
even of national importance. The people
round about desire some information con
corning their neighbors and their friends;
they want some able views and a deiiber
ate opinion Of the editor of the paper
which they take, and that is about all.
It requires an inventive and creative
genius, versatility, mendacity cheek and
lead pencils to dc AL this, and for that
reason we desire to remark that we are
no longer going to monkey on little
questions.
We make bold to say, and we call upon
LORD SALISBURY and the Salisbury Her
aid to witness the fact, that this country
will no longer tolerate this f%oolishness
~bOuG Al DShllhS u CSAS1iASSO' a. Oeh"
dian fishermen want to catch cod fish or
wall-eyed pike in the seas of this land
that's the expression, We are sure, but
whether there are seas on this land we do
not know and we distinctly and emphati'
cally state that we do not care.
But as we said before: If any pelican
of a Canadian wants to catch cat fish or
German carp or Dutch carp or any other
kind of carp, they had better go slow.
We demand that PRESIDENT HARRI-
SON stop writing letters and go person
ally and put a fence around the Bebring
sea, wherever it is, and try to earn his
salary.
And we want to also say that in this
opinion the c%oncensus Of the business, as
the books say, will be back of THE GLOBE
and it does not care what LORD SAILS
BUR says or thinks about it. We pro-
pose to hew to the line, let the logs fly
where they may.

remember that another thirty and he will
have lived the average life. More than
the average life-and he wonders where
the years have gone. He sees the many
changes which Time, the stern I~ceneclast,

Death claimed long ago, but no voice, no

He sees away wonder in that bleak and
