Why Women Remove Their Hats n
Court.

Court.
young lawyer Of Boston, says the Post was
asked the other day why in the English courts
woman must remove her. hat. He could not
answer the question. But an old LAWYER to
whom the matter was referred, recalled the
opinion of Sir Edward Coke on the matter IL
was at a murder trial where the prisoner was a
woman, and appeared bsfore the court with her
head covered. Sir Edward Coke ordered the
prisoner to remove her hat, and said: A woman
may be covered in church. but not when
arraigned in a court OF justice" The accused
tartly replied; 1t seems singular that may
wear my hat in the presence OF God, but not in
tue presence Of man" 1T isn't strange at all, y
replied the judge, "for the reason that man,
with his weak intellect cannot discover the
secrets whieh ara known TO God and, therefore,
in investigating truth, where human life is in
peril, and one Is charged with taking life, the
court should sec all obstacles removed Besides
the countenance 10 often the index to the mind
and, accordingly, It IS fitting that the hat
should be removed and Herewith the shadow
which 1t casts upon your face" The hat OF the
prisoner was taken Off but she was allowed for

The extraordinary profits of the
Fall River cotton spinners furnish
the latest source of ignorant brag
about the effects of the Mckinley
tariff. Prints have gone up be-
cause of the demand, and the price
of raw cotton has sone down from
IL cents per pound to Z cents per
pound. Women buy moro cotton
dresses because they can no longer
afford to buy better stuff. Cot
ton goes down because of EXTRA
ordinary crops and the dullness
of foreign demand. These are the
patent causes Of Fall River pros
perity. Whichever effect the tariff
may have had in bringing it about
is sinister and mischievous. But
this does not stop the mouth of the
touters. Philadelphia Record.

than this one. Never has there
been less reason than now for large
fund for proper and legitimate
uses, to say nothing Of "educatis
onar' and "missioiiary" work. In
this repect the present CAM
paign is exceptionally unique.
Mr.. Cleveland is now a candidate
for the third time and Mr.. Har-
rison for the second. Their per-
soahl records aud views are
familiar to the people. One has
served four and the other nearly
four year III the White House.
Their administrations are matters
OF history well known to the coun-
try. Between the parties which
they represent there is but one
practical issue generally recog-
nized, and that relates to the tariff.
On this the difference is one of
degree rather than kind. Both
are in favor of a tariff. The only
difference is that one wants a
higher satiH than the other.
The people of the country are
now in the position of a jury ON a
second trial. All the evidence was
submitted, every argument made
and every plea advanced on the
first trial four years ago. We are
simply going over the same ground
now. The evidence, arguments
and the pleas are the same. The
verdict may or may not be different
The people are intelligent and vel
informed. They have been KEEP
well posted by the press and the
campaign orators. They viii
deliberate and vote as they think
best. 1t is obvious, then, that the
campaign opens an exceptionally
narrow field for the Legitimate use
of money, unless carrying doubtful
states by more doubtful means b'
considered legitimate. In view Of
all this let us hope, for the credi
of the Nation and common decency
that the canvass will be free from
scandals and charges of corruption
which have been too common il
the past.-New York Herald.

The date of completion of the
new navy of seventy ship of 319-
900 tons displacement, earring $40
heavy guns, was fixed for April,
1894, but so unexpectededly rapid
has been their construction that
all but one are expected to be
afloat a year earlier. The London
Spectator says: "In the United
States alone, where last year the
total output of iron exceeded that
in England, has this rapidity of
naval construction been approached
during the year "a fact which
those who doubt the possibility
Of the sudden construction

would do well to bear in mind"

We observe in some of the West
ern states significant symptoms of
rising protest against the use of
money in politics. In one of the
Ohio congressional districts, for
example, a leading democrat
whose name has been prominently
mentioned in connection with the
congressional nomination empha-
tically declined to become a can
didate, preferring to wait until
"the day when manhood, not mon
ey, will be triumphant in positions
of honor and trust" Commenting
on the evils of the corrupt use of
campaign funds, the Cleveland
Plain Dealer declares that "the
work of reform cannot begin a
minute too soon or be pressed with
too much energy" That mon
ey has been at the bottom
OF the most fragrant abuses
and scandals which have dis
graced American politics is a mat
ter of common notoriety. In
support Of this it is not necessary
to cite the general charges that
have been brought against both
parties sometimes, perhaps, reck-
lessly, but oftener with too much
truth, that high offices have been
secured by wealth, that states
have been carried by the party
which raised the largest campaign
fund, that candidates have beer
put on tickets solely because o
their barrels" and so on. 1t il
enough to recall the numerou
laws which it has been deemed
necessary to enact for the sup
preston of the evil. The Fedora
statute prohibiting political assess

An Enthusiastic Book Illustrator.

An idea of the extent to which private
illustrating may run is afforded by Mr..
Tredwell, of Brooklyn, in a few details
from his own experience. Thirty years
ago he began the illustration of DR.. Henry
r. Stiles History of the City of Brook
lyn," and this work is not yet concluded.
He has added to DR.. Stiles original work
1890 pages, mostly portraits and prints of
historic landmarks. The original three
volumes have been extended to nine, and
the cost so far has been something like
$1,000 But it is not. to be understood that
the illustrators whole attention has been
given to this particular work. In the
thirty years he has illustrated sixty differ
ent works, or about l20 volumes, and he
has upward of 300 books in his library
which have "more or less undergone this
process of mutation"
Mr.. Tredwell describes how the scope of
a contemplated illustration may grow I'M
der the temptations afforded in the print
sellers shops. Starting out to buy por-
trait of Washington Irving to paste in a
sketch of the life of that author, he found
himself presently with twenty-seven en-
graved portraits representing Irving at
different periods of his life from sixteen to
sixty. Still an interval, and he was pos
sessed of portraits of Irving's relations and
literary friends, cuts of the Irving birth
place and library and so on, seventy-fve
all told, which had been obtained at total
expense of twenty-five dollars. Then came
the work of the inlayer, the professional
gentleman who makes prints fit into books
as though they had grown there, still fur
ther increasing the cost.-New York Sun.

American Women Abroad,

There is no Disgusting the fact that the
majority of foreigners look upon American
women with an easy and careless contempt.
A great many silly women have gone from
this country to Europe, travelling alone OF
in pairs, and many more have lost Their
heads amid the whirl of life in the big
European capitals, SO that many of the
silly things done by women on the Cont
nent are credited to America. am sorry
to say that the belief that American WON.
en- are careless of the conventionalities OF
life is justified. / have seen troops OF
American school teachers, tourists, de
tached wives and even girls without escorts
wandering about alone in the night haunts
of Paris, staring at sights which they had
better not have seen. French or German
women would not think for moment OF
venturing about without some member OF
their families as an escort, but American
women push their way everywhere, and
seem rather fond of exhibiting their indie
pendence, self reliance and courage. I'm
doubtedly most of them come out of the
experience unscathed, but they never seem
to think of the effect of their escapades
upon foreigners.
Almost everything that is wild, reckless
and unthinking on the part of the women
in Paris is looked upon as American.
Women who in our own country are mod
els of propriety apparently lose all notion
of the conventional when they go to Eu
rope. | remember, for instance, seeing on
one occasion two American women of un
questioned refinement in a cheap music
hall in London, amid horde of questions
BILE, cigarette smoking women, looking at
a cheap and vulgar show. They had gone
to the music hall alone at night because
they wanted to see it. Neither of them
would have thought of going to such
place, even with an escort, in America,
but they did not hesitate to go out alone
to London music hall because they were
making their srst tour abroad and they
wanted to see everything. -Blakely Hall

When Business and Morals Are One.

1t is a very common thing for people to
lament that they did not get rid of this or
that property before its value deprecated.
OF course, what they are really sorry for is
that they could not have contTived to sad
die their loss on some one else. 1t is sign
of the imperfection of contemporary be-
nevolence that good people should have
such feelings and should regard them as
matters of course. They are humorously
unchristian. The utmost the average con-
temporary moralst enjoins is that man
shall not UNLOAD" upon his friends. He
cannot so much as imagine scruple about
selling out candescent stocks in open mar
ket.
1t will not be so when the millennium
comes. Property will continue then, as
now, to iluctuate in value, but the pros
pect of depression will no longer strike
the owner as good reason for selling out.
His superior moral sense will then, as now,
be profitable to his estate, since property
doesn't always depreciate as, much as is
expected, and often in the end it RECEIVERS
more than it lost. But the great advan-
tage from business point of view OF the
perfected altruism will be emancipation of
the altruist from panic and all its conse-
quences, since the man who is more ready
to accept his loss than to pass it on is not
to be scared into a foolish sacrifice by the
shadow of it Observation-Disclosures.

Knows German and English.

have heard it said that no man knows
two languages equally well. doubt that
it is so. To take an illustration close at
hand, | should say that the Hon. Carl
Schurz knew both German and English
perfectly. He writes and speaks in Ger
man constantly and in his family has
made it rule to employ his mother
tongue almost exclusively, lest his chill
dren should grow up with an imperfect
knowledge of it's refinements or lack of
facility in its use. They speak Englisl,
fluently of course, and would prefer to use,
it in conversation among themselves. TIL
Mr.. Schurz passes safely over the pitfs
of English speech, no one who has hear
him address an English speaking audience
need be told, and as for his skill in writing
the language, one has only to read his
monograph on Abraham Lincoln to see
how perfect is his mastery of the idiom.

congratulate himself on the possession Of
style so easy and accomplished. Critic.

TennNsnn,s Early Poems.

Tennyson was only eight years old when
he covered both sides of his brothers slate
with poem on FLOWERS" done in unim-
peachable meter His brother had said to
him, ''See if you can write poetry" and
when he read the verse on the slate he
merely said, you've done it." Between
the ages of eleven and twelve the young
poet wrote an epic of over 1000 lines in
Scott's octosyllabics mingled with heroics.
These were the only finished poems of
Tennyson's boyhood, but when about four
teen or fifteen years old he commenced a
drama in iambic meter which still sur
