the United States senate if there is a
called a session of the Texas legisla-

and voted for free coinage, but is con-
WINGED that it will not relieve in the
slightest degree the financial distress

The financial distress - of which Mr..

LANDED ESTATES OF ENGLAND
The inevitable is going Onin England.
The great landed estates of the no.
bility are being sacrificed one after
another. The extravaganza or i'm
providence of their owners cOmpels a
sale and ancestral acres are thrown
upon the market for purchasers. Two
ancient estates are about being brok-,
en- up. The Marquis of Ailesbury has
obtained legal permission to dispose
of all his ancestral estates-of the
glades where the oak is Il century old,
and the house which has been in his
family ever since it was built. The
Duke of Marlborough, too, has OBJ
tanned leave to sell one portion of his
estate to gain the means of develop
ing the rest. The sale of the great
estate does not mean in every case
that they fall Immediately into the
hands of the people, for they
may be bought by men of wealth and
kept intact for "a time longer. 1t is
the first step to their disintegration
however, Tor when the new owners die
there Is pretty sure to come a divis-
ion, since the laws which have kept
estates in one family for generations
cease to operate when once they are

theology Of our time which sacrifices logic to
sentiment. and hides in phraseology what 1t

have had little sympathy. "He thought there
was no need that the strict philosophic truth
should be at all concealed" Gays one OF his
biographers. He'll. to him. was u reality to DO

The polite and wealthy city Of Baltimore
is taking the lead as the promulgator Of the
principles Of dress reform. short time ago.
we chronicled the act OF squadron Of
athletic young ladies there in discarding cor
sets and sundry other articles OF fashionable
feminine costume: and now we are appraised OF
the calling Of conference Of the students Of
the Woman's College for the purpose OF de-
batting the question OF adopting the university
hat and gown as O daily dress-the four-cor-
nered hat and the flowing black gown. It Is
probable that reporters will be excluded from
this interesting conference. but we shall surely
find out its decision. We do not need to give
the young ladies any advice on tho subject
They will act with proprlety.
While we thus have reports OF progress In
the conservative State Of Maryland. what is
the news from the all-reforming State Of
Massachusetts, Tho professor Of physical
culture in tho High School OF the town Of
Woburn was confronted recently with rebel
lion when she ordered her pupils to discard
their corsets and adopt reform Dress At
one time they played sham: at another they
were defiant and at last several of them
tainted when deprived Of their corsets and
garters. The doctors have been called in. and
1t now lies with them to determine whether
the reform shall be carried out at all hazards.
1t Is truly IN instructive fact that the
young ladies' Of Maryland are ahead Of
those OF Massachusetts,. that the athletic
students Of the Baltimore Woman's College
have reformed the dress which the pupils Of
the Woburn High School stick up for.

AS the Italian TREzzA leaves the death

AS the Italian TREzZA leaves the death
house" through the Communication Of his SEN
tence to the electrical chair to one OF life i'm
prisonment. there comes news Of a case OF
condemnation to death in France which has
produced In actual life situation that must
have risen in the mind OF every one OF the
many spectators upon the choice between
execution and imprisonment for life
A soldier named GuaEI. who attempted to
kill non-oommissioned officer. was recently
condemned to be shot, but this sentence was
committed by President CARNoT to twenty
years penal servitude. Now GUGEL flatly re-
fuses the mercy Of the Chief Magistrate and
demands to be shot. He considers the penal
servltude as stain upon his honor. He asks
CARNoT not to disgrace him. but to "let him
like soldier fall" In other words. as be-
tween Imprisonment for the rest OF his days
and death. he would rather die.
This. we believe. is the first authentic record
OF such a preference. Many people may have
imagined that In the general estimation life
was so full Of troubles In itself that doomed
to continual confinement 1t would seem SO
horrible that men would rather shrink from
it into death. But when they are confronted
with this alternative they have always chosen
life In any shape GuGEL is the first to pray
for departure from this world. yet 1t will be
observed that his desire is largely fortified by
a special dread OF humiliation as soldier.
