The Ring Was
In Ills Boot !

An interesting incident oc-
Cured at a wedding in Nyack,
n. Y, recently, says the AL
bany Argus. All went mer-
rily until the bridegroom was
called upon to produce the
wedding ring. In vain he
felt in his trousers pocket
for the Indispensable article.
Nothing could be found ex-
cept a hole, through which
the ring had evidently fallen
into his boot. What was he
to do?
"Take your boot off," said
the parson. The, suspense
and silence were painful.
Inc orSanlst, at the doml-
MES bidding, began a "vo-
luntary.'
The young man removed
his boot, the ring was found,
also a hole in his stocking,
and the minister remarked,
evidently with more than the
ceremony in mind, "Young
man, it is time you were mar
ried.'

The nick of time to stop the course of
bladder aud kidney complaints is when
the organs concerned exhibit a tendency
to grow inactive. The healtnful impulse
toward activity that they receive from
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters rescues them
from impending danger, and averts such
dangerous maladies as Bright's disease
and diabetes. Sluggishness of the kid
neys increases a liability to chrome rheu-
matism, govt and dropsy, and since the
blood is filtered in these organs in its pas
sage through them, the bltters serve a
double happy purpose. The medicine
acts without exciting, like the frey stimu-
lants of commerce. Malarial, d~yspeptic,
constipated and nervous invalids are
thoroughly relieved by it. Since the ad-
vent Of hat shocking malady, la grippe,
it has been widely demonstrating its use
fulness as a curative and preventative
of it.

STORIES OF THE DAY.
Fun with a Jerserman.


Merriment is in order on most all
occasions II matters not whether il be
case of death, murder or any affair
over which tears are, there is always a
funny side In this city there is young
nan from the Jersey soil, who has not
always been accustomed to city life and
1t is said that a lighted match was put to
his coat since his arrival and that it, as
well as himself, was not mature enough
to burn This young man is employed
in a shop where his fellow workmen are
fond of joking Since the murder Of
Katie Dugan they have been taunting
MIN by saying that he was connected
with the deed The question has wor-
ried the young man considerably On a
recent pay day his fellow iokers managed
TO get him under the influence of some
thing stronger than cider Sue
cess in this, they looked up
a grand army man, who was uniformed
with brass buttons and various badges of
orders TO which he belonged and having
the appearance of a detective, they con
cluded TO have a quantity Of fun. They
divulged TO him all they knew Of the
young man, and then they went with
him to the shop where the subject of all
the fun was amusing himself by wander
ing. When the detective" went in the
shop and asked for the gentleman he re-
piled that he had been there but had
just gone out. ''You, l understand,
came from Jersey and you are the person
l am looking for, said the detective.
"No, sir l am from Pennsylvania. "
where were you on the night of the
murder2' In Chester" The de-
tective then examined the young man
carefully and told him that he would be
watched and should he dare to leave the
city he would be arrested. During the
examination the other worBmen stood
around as though they were awe
stricken. AS yet the young man has
made no attempt TO leave the city.

local paper attempted 90 place the Ledger
in the false attitude Of declaring that
the Democratic party is in favor Of the
free coinage Of silver.
That was contrary to the spirit of the
editorials Of the Ledger But the local
edito,, justifying his misrepresentation in
some manner best known to himself and
suspected only by others, printed the
falsehood at the head of his columns for
months. His personal satisfaction is
probably commensurate with the public
disgust at his subserviency. Let him go;
he has his reward
To show how utterly without founda-
tion, how base the misrepresentation of
this local editor was, we quote as fol-
lows:
The Ledger can perceive no reason 10
fear that the victory Of the Democracy,
sweeping as it has been, will have, as one
of its consequences, a revival of the sill
yer contest Of last spring in the next
congress; on the contrary. the Ledger
believes there is sufficient cause TO
sume that there is nothing whatever to
the 4th instant we think it was salts
factorily established, upon the authority
of Mr. Cleveland himself, that no free
and unlimited silver coinage bill, no
measure for the debasement of the
national currency, could become law
with his consent Without his consent,
during his presidential term, no such bill
or measure cohld possibly become law,
as executive approval would be withheld
from it. But, while Mr. Cleveland
would assuredly defeat any congressional
effort which could possibly be made TO
vitiate the currency, It IS improbable
that, in view of his well-known convic-
lions upon the subject and his resolute
opposition to free and unlimited silver
coinage. the majority Of congress would
attempt TO revive contest over silver
which would before It was begun be
doomed to certain defeat.
The above is proof that the Ledger
never could have held the views attri-
buted TO il.
If the local editor could feel the shame
that plagiarist ought 20 feel, but does
not feel, ne would blush at the convinc-
ing proof of his crime. But the plagiar-
list never bushes. He does not vince
even till caught.
The same quality which induces a
man to forge ,plagiarize and misinterpret,
prevents him likewise, from feeling any
sense Of shame.

THE policy Of putting large contracts
for naval armor and iron into the hands
Of loyal and campaign-fund manufac-
turers may have resulted well for the
Republican party's treasury but It has
disadvantages which cause the depart
ment much trouble and anxiety. The
contract for armor plate awarded to
Frics, without any competitive bidding.
at $40 per ton, has not been fulfilled.
The coast defence vessel Monterey, now
lying at the Union Iron works yard in
California, has been practically complete,
except as to armor, for many months.
and the contractors have been pressing
TO have her accepted by the Navy De
partment There is need for the vessel
in the service, too, in order TO relieve
some Of the vessels now 40 the Mare
Island navy yard for foreign service
at Samoa and Honolulu, for instance.
Finally, it has been decided that she
shall go into commission january 10
next, whether the armor is complete or
not aud it is said that the turrets
will be lacking on that date.
Secretary Tracy is annoyed. He
summoned Mr.. Frick, and that
loyal, $3.50, 600 campaign funder has de-
clared that his company, which took the
contract so cheerfully one year ago, "has
arranged to purchase and erect large
quantity of new machinery and to open
a.
of the Midvale mills had been loyal and
liberal he might have had the oppor
tunity to bid for the job, and If he had
obtained it the government would have
had the armor plate This is another
case where it is wrong to expose "a
purely private business affair" which is
not as pure as it is private.

NEWSPAPER OPINION.
The steamshIp Postal Contracts

The steamship Postal Contracts.
Philadelphia Ledger.
In another column there will be found
the report Of an interview which a repre-
sentative of the Ledger has had with Mr..
Clement A. GriscOm, president of the
international Navigation company, from
which it viii be learned that the posi-
tion of that company has been inaccur-
ately represented by dispatches from
Washington The Steamship company
recognizes, il is stated, as clearly as
others do, hat the establishment Of a
transatlantic line of high class Ameri
can vessels is matter of national
Importance, in which men of all
parties, and especially men of af-
fairs, are interested. The fact
should not be lost sight of that, al
though the Fifty first Congress passed
the Postal bill, il was the Fifty-second
Congress, under the Democratic leader
ship Of Hon. W. Bourke Cochran, which
passed the bill to give those fine staunch
vessels, the City Of Paris and the City of
New York, American registry and the
right TO sail under the American flag
In giving them the registry and the dag
Of the United States, congress imposed
an essential condition, that the Inter
national Navigation company should
build new ships. of equally high class
and tonnage, in order to qualify itself
TO receive the postal contract
The vote authorizing the transfer of
the City of Paris and the City of New
York from the British to the American
flag was not a partisan one; Democrats
and Republicans In both House and Sen.
ate voted for it. The question of inter
national mail contracts is not political
one, IL Is purely commercial, and of such
national Importance that there should be
no misunderstanding about it. The In.
ternetional Steamship company's con-
tract for a trans. Atlantic mail service
was not made with any political party,
but with the government Of the United
States, and IL. of course. is unaffected by
election results. No matter what party
comes or goes, the government goes on
forever, and its contracts are sedulously
respected and observed by il in all their
integrity The Democratic victory of
the Sth of November, If it should be a
factor Of any sort in this matter, which
10 cannot be, would be rather favorable
than otherwise. as it is the Democrats,
and not the Republicans who have gen.
orally been as a party, in favor of grant
ing American registers and the flag of
their country to foreign built ships.
The victories or defeat of parties have
nothing to do with the formally made
contracts Of the Government; the latter
involving as they do tine honor and
credit of the country, are necessarily not
subject TO partisan changes The Inter
national Steamship Company knows this
quite as well as others.
