1t is unfortunate for the miserable,
lying copperhead press that are claim
ing the troubles of the great steel works
at Homestead, are chargeable to An
drew Carnegie, that the facts prove
that he some time since retired from
those works and that a joint stock COM
pany was formed with S25 100000 cap
ital, with prominent millionaire Dem
ocrat by the name of III. G. Frick at its
head as president.-Newark American.
The great mistake at Homestead was
made by Mr.. Frick, the millionaire
Democratic president of the steel
works, attempting to occupy the plant
by an armed force of Pinkerton hire
lings. 1t was this that precipitated
the conflict that caused the killing of
nearly a quarter Of hundred Of men
and the manning Of a half hundred
more. There should be a law forbid
ding the employment Of this force of
hirelings in every state in the Union
and at the same time the law should
compel the chief executive of the state
to obey the constitution and laws by
using the states power in maintaining
peace and protecting life and property.
This the Democratic governor Of the
state failed, or refused TO do, for no
other purpose than that of securing
party advantage by his course. His
actions, or rather want Of action,
caused the loss of those lives and for
this the people will hold him and his
party TO account when election day
comes along.-Newark American.
The Homestead strike has brought
the Democracy prominently to the fore
again as the party that always tries to
make capital out of calamity y-New

He Missed the Point.

Almost his first effort in newspaper office was to condense an account of a golden wedding. He did his best and handed it in. His editor looked it over and handed it back, remarking coldly:
 You seem to have got everything in except the point. Try again."
 Greatly abashed, lie returned to his desk and toiled for nearly an hour over the thing, finally taking it falteringly a second time to his chief. That function ary read it through, and then with calm contempt looked the young man over.
 Don't you see that the striking thing about this incident, and the only thing which makes it worth our while to print it at all, is that each of these individuals now celebrating their golden wedding has been married once before. Probably an almost unprecedented thing. You have carefully left the main point out of both your condensations."
 The newspaper man went on to say that he never forgot that experience. He thinks he owes his success to it, for he has come to be one of the foremost "con- densers" on the press. Things come to him from all parts of the country to be boiled down." Since that maiden eff fort, which was such total failure" he says, Il always look for the point the first thing.

An Ex-oueen,s Good Fortune.

The ex-queen of Naples, who has suf- fered all the bangs of genteel poverty during the past twenty years or more, has now been placed in comparatively affluent position. Her mother, the late Duchess of Ludovica, of Bavaria, who died some weeks ago, left fortune yielding an income of about $l00, 900 a year. According to the will of the duchess the property was to be shared equally between three of the daughters of the duchess, namely, the empress of Austria, the ex-queen of Naples and the Duchess of Alencon.
 The empress, however, is so wealthy in her own right--she has an income of 500, ,000 year of her own, besides the right of drawing upon her husbands s practically inexhaustible purse-that she has abandoned her share of the bequest to the ex-queen of Naples, who will therefore now come in for about $60, 900 to $70,00 year. The ex-queen figures as the heroine in Daudet's Kings in Exile. San Francisco Argonaut.

Mnshrnnms Are Filling.

One virtue of the mushroom that oftentimes is not realized by its cham pions eveu is its nutritive qualities, for it is often considered fit only for sauce or side dish. Recently ate dinner with a friend who is a bon vivant and gifted with an abnormally large appe- tite. To my surprise he ordered noth- ing but mushrooms, bread and butter, and, of course, drinkables. We had mushrooms raw, stewed, fried and broiled on toast. 1t was my first ex- pefience, but found them excellent. 1 certainly thought they would not "stay by me-" but to my surprise for many hours afterward 1 had as com plete a sense of fullness as rare roast beef or juicy steak ever imparted.

a Me.ican Eat In a Birdcage.

from Stuyvesant square there is small,
dingy barroom. 1t is the favorite drink
ing place of dozen or more old men,
who are cronies and have met andplayed
chess there for many years. The aged
proprietor of the place has filled the
room with curiosities-strange stuffed
birds, autographs of old New Workers.,
theater tickets of quarter of century
ago, few old fashioned collars, etc.
The old gentleman is facetious occa-
sionally. He has been chuckling over
his latest joke for q week or two. :,
Hanging from the ceiling directly
over the bar is a bamboo birdcage. The
foursides ofthe cage are covered with
cloth curtains. On one of these curtains
is printed this inscription, ga Mexican
