caIEF JUSTICE FULLER.

The rumor that Chief Justice Full
Ser intends shortly to resign from the
bench of the Supreme Court is no
doubt baseless. The reason assigned
for the resignation is more ridiculous
than the story of the resignation it
self. It is that Judge Fuller sur
rendered a law practice OF $4,000 per
unuum, and the salary Of his Office ID
only Sl0,500 per annum. The reader
is left to infer that the Chief Justice
has only recently discovered the
amount OF salary that is being paid
him. Fhe statement is further made
that he is dissatisfied with his posi-
ton because it affords him no oppor-
tunity for making great reputation.
This is really refreshing, in the face
Of the fact that in the mind Of every
honorable lawyer there is no greater
earthly distinction than that attached
to the position OF Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court. .-...
Those rho circulate the report OF
Judge Fuller's resignation deny to
him the attributes Of foresight and
discretion and the capacity to appre-
ciGte the honor Of an exalted position.
When the Office nf Chief Justice was
rendered 20 him he knew tire amount
81 the salary he would receive. He
realized the dignity, the power and
the possibilities that belong to the
place. He had an abundance of time
in which to decide whether he would
accept or decline the appointment.
When his mind was made up he ac-
uepted, and it may be safely assumed,
hs it is certainly hoped, that he will
continue for many yelrs to fill with
credit to himself and the country o
position which satisfied the ambition

Ellsworth, John NlarEhall and Roger

Papa, Punishment of an Archbishop.

PapRN PuntahmeDt OF an Archbishop.
The pope has sentenced to degrade
ton from the rank of prelate, and to
deprivation of all ecclesiastical digni-
ties and Offices, Archbishop Folchi, vice
camerlingo Of the Roman Catholic
church, and one of the most important
and influential members of the papal
court. This sentence, almost unique in
modern times, is attributable to his
conviction by court of inquiry Of bad
Judgment, negligence and dishonesty
in connection with the administration
of the funds and revenues of the pa
pacy. For years past he has acted as
secretary and treasurer of the board
Of cardinals who are intrustcd
with the administration Of the pa
pal revenues and of enormous sums
besides, including almost the entire
amount OF the obolo di San Pietro, or
Peters pence, much of which is sub
scribed in the United States. The arch
bishop, who gives one the impression
of being man of the world instead of
priest, was allowed free hand with
regard to the disbursement of the
money, and the result is that an alarm
ing deficit has been discovered In the
! papal treasury.
A Queer Pet.
A spider is the novel pet Of Laings-
bnrgh (Nlich.) girl. He is kept under a
goblet and carefully fed, positively re-
fusiug to begin meal until three Of
four flies have been thrust into his
apartment. These he let's walk around
him and even over him, allowing them
to think him perfectly harmless, until
in some of their trips under hia nose he
apparently wakes mp aud grabs them.
After one OF these meals he loses his
appetite for about forty-eight hours,

RAILWAY PASSES
People Who Ask for Them and
How They Are Treated.
Tho unenvfable Task That Railway OF.
ncinh Have To Perform In Dealing
with Importunate Pass
FfendR.

"Congressmen seldom ask as for free
passes" said railway man TO q Wash
ingtou Star reporter. ION the other
hand the clerks attached to committee
rooms and the private secretaries of
prominent men are most frequent
among our petitioners. Do they get
them? Not usually. You sec, in dis
Pcnsing such favors we consider chiuny
the question whether the applicant as
able to do the road any service.
ut is very funny to observe how gen
eral the impression seems to be among
applicants for passes that they are able
to be of service to Us. You would
imagine from the way they talk that
most Of them are the very pillars Of the
road. They declare very often that
they individually throw into our hand
thousands of dollars worth Of passen-
ger traffic, and on the strength of that
plea they demand free transportation
for themselves. Such persons as these
are to be found lurking by dozens
around the hotel corridors
eve find very many applicants of this
sort among the people in the depart
ments- Once having got pass they
have acquired @ taste for travelling free
OF charge, and they do not like the no
ton OF paying their way any more. 1t
is astonishing how the habit of Journey
ing by rail gratis grows upon the indi-
vidual. l knew Philadelphia man
once upon a time who had an annual
pass between Philadelphia and Harris
burg. Having little occasion to travel
he did not use his privilege at all until
thn punalr hnfDf.a 1,iu
but during that week he did nothing
but travel back and forth between Har-
risburg and Philadelphia, just for the
sake of the feeling that he was getting
something for nothing.
"Tranps used to apply to us very
often, but our way to get rid of them
has always been to send them to the
sanitary office. That Office, as you are
aware, has On arrangement with the
railways for sending out of the district
any persons who desire to get away,
preferrinE to do this rather than permit
them to become charge upon the COM
nunity. Such people we grant half
! rates. Among the impecunious un.
fortunates who ask for passes are nu-
merouS candidates for situations in the
government service who have failed to
secure places. They have come here
perhaps comfortably supplied with
money, but have gradually expended
it while vainly pursuing the official
will-o'-the-wisp. Finally they get dead
broke and make plea for transporta-
| ton on the ground Of the prcsumptive
benevolence Of the corporation. To
show them that this is a mistake on
| their part, we steer them to the channel
afforded all pcnniless strangers for get
| ting out of town"

A Foil For Beauty.

Ono of the most embarrassing posi-
tions in which woman eau be placed
at the table is when she is pouring tea
and coffee. These adjuncts to the
meal are usually given to the guests
at time when there is lull either in
the eating or conversation, and natur>
ally the attention OF the company 10
attracted to the hostess, moro es>
pecially SO If she be . pretty and
graceful woman. The English long
ago recognized this fact and made .
very pretty provision for it. 1t con-
si.ts Of neat woven wire OK metal
frame work about eighteen or twenty
inches high, which Is placed on tho
outside of the tea tray, inclosing it on
either side, thus partially hiding from
view the fair one who is doing the
honors. Generally speaking, the
frame is ornamented with pretty little
draperies Of light, lowered silk Or
some other flimsy material, and thus
she is shut off from the curious gaze
of the guests and can pursue the eve n
tenor of her pouring without fxper-
fencing the slightest degree of ner>
vousness. These screens are not. to
our knowledge. very we'll known in
this country, but on"e their utility
WAS recognized would doubtless be-
come very popular. They could be
trimmed with bows Of ribbon or draped
with lace or delicately paintt d designs
on silk or satin. Suggestive and
appropriate notices could also be
woven in the &c ntre or in any other
manner that might suggest itself &c
the maker. This would greatly en-
nance their beauty and make . very
ornamental addition to the furnishings
Of the table.

The state Republican committee OF
this state has accepted the resignation
oil Hon. & W. Atkinson, who has for
many years most acceptably filled that
position, and has elected Hon. w. NJ.
D. Dawson. Mr.. Atkinson was a most
unexceptionablc secretary, but seems
to have concluded, no duubt for good
reasons, that he could no longer serve
in that capacity. II change must be
made, VIC do not know OF a better man
to take the place. Mr.. Dawson is well
known to us personally, as well as
politically. He is a self-made man,
and, like pretty much all the self-made
men, very well made. He has the
ability, the industry, the honesty and
the tact needed to gil we'll tho place,
and We doubt If any man in the party
would fill it more acccptably than he
will. = . Mr.. Atkinson is our
candidate for governor OF West Vir-
glnia, and VIC predict that ii elected he
would be the best governor West Vir-
glnia has ever had in the gubcrnatorial
chair. We are not advised as 10 his
views on the subject, but if-he will con-
sent to run, the Republicans Of the state
can hardly do better than to nominate
and elect him.

Whnclsinc at Rcclnrncilr,

Mr.. Breckenridge, of Kentucky, forses
to the front with bill to repeal the
reciprocity provision OF the Mckinley
tariff act. Mr.. breckenridge will par
don US, We trust, if we do not quite
understand how o Democrat can nerve
himself 10 this point.
When the provision in question was
under discussion the Democrats sought
to make merry at Republican expense
. and justified their smiles by saying
that reciprocity is only another name
for free trade. They declared further
that Mr.. Blaine had forced the Republic
can party into reciprocity and that the
boosted champion OF protection had
ANONYMOUSLY abandoned the cause.
Now, the Democratic party is free
trade party or it is nothing, rs Mr..
Watterson has well said; and what is
difficult to understand is how Demo-
cratof Mr.. Breckenridge's prominence
objects to what he has claimed to be a
measure OF free trade. 1t must be be-
cause he finds it in q tariff law passed
by a Republican Congress.
1t is possible that the Democratic
house will vote to repeal the reciprocity
provisions, but it probably will not.
Reciprocity is bearing good fruit and is
popular. If the Democrats jump on it
they will be less popular than they are
now, and they have not much margin
to come and go on.
