THE CARNIVAL CONTINUES.
A Fresh Grist of Thuggism and
RurpfariOuS Raids 3

A Fresh Grist of Thuggism and
Burgiarious Raids.
Still the burglar. footpad and street
,slugger are doing a thriving business.
At 80 Tuesday morning P.J. MaIlon, a
composltor, while on his way home
from his mig hts toll over the Wabasha
street bridge, was sandbagged by a
cotored man. The footpad failed TO get
: III his work effectively, and Maflon
turned Upon HIM with the fury of a
tiger. Mallon succeeded in getting in a
good blow from the shoulder and
knocked the fellow down. The negro
sregained his feetand ran. Mallon pursu-
ing him until ne was out of sight.
: Fridaynight last burglars entered the
residence of Mrs. OBrien, Oil Grove
street. and secured lot of plumber, in
cluded in which was all her chiIdren's
clothing. When she awoke in the
morning she discovered what had taken
place during the night. The burglars
had taken the lamp from her room,
lighted it and gone to the cellar. There
they had feast on eggs and provisions
from her pantry, and drank from bot
tie of whisky they brought with thems
She informed policeman and he prom
ised to report the matter to heaGquar-.
tiers. The burglars are not caught
Monday night burglars went through
two houses ON Viola street. One
of the houses was the residence of John
Kllbam, standing at the corner of Jack
son street. What the burglars secured
is not learned. The same night burg
lars entered the house of John King.
which IS in the same locality, but he
happened to be up attending his sick
wife. and the ularauders decamped with
him in pursuit. He did not overtake
them. ilsu
Last evening before the show was out
at the Grand Op.sra house Michael Nash,
living at 500 Edmund street, was siugged
on the walk near the playhouse by
three men. He followed at the top of
his voice and men rushed out of the sa-
loon. At the sight of assistance the
sluggers decamped, and Nash chased
them short distance. AT length they
came up with him, land one asked where
Jackson street is. AS he was about to
replay one of them struck him terrific
blow, knocking him flat. ~

ANOTHER ONE sLUGGED.
Henry Dougherty sandbagge,


and Robbed on Sixth Street.
The latest outrage is reported by
Henry Dongherty, news agent Oh the
Northern Pacific road, who lives at 321
Robert street. 1t occurred near the
public corner of Wabasha and Sixth
streets shortly after o'clock Sunday
afternoon. Dougherty came down Wa
basha, and turned down Sixth street by
the Clarendon hotel. Before going
fifty feet man approached from
behind and struck him in the
temple with a sandbag, and he
fell like he had been shot. The thug
robbed him of his watch and chain and
81 i'll money and left him lying sense
less on the sidewalk. When he recov-
cred he went to police headquarters
and reported the occurrence to the
chief, and also told it to Assemblyman
DAILY, whom he CHANGED to meet. But
Dougherty was not pleased with the re-
ception he met at police headquarters.
where he was eoldly received and re-
garded as man who wished to bring
the police into bad repute by having
been victim to police incompetency.
He got no satisfaction, and, it is need
less to add, he has since heard nothing
OF his stolen valuableS.

starved when discovered by neighbors.

If the HERALD had any tears to shed
because of the withdrawal of the sub.
scriptioR patronage of half a dozen
saloon men it would prepare to shed
them now. But it has none. The men
whose names are signed TO the COM
munication elsewhere published re-
questing the withdrawal referred TO
are previously mistaken i'm assuming
that anything that this paper or any
other can say in reference to their bust
ness can degrade it. We believe also
that they are greatly mistaken in their
assumption that "public sentiment is
strongly opposed to the position which
this paper has taken in OPP
position to the effort now being made
by the liquor men and their represent
tatives to secure a reduction of the
license. Like the three tailors of
Tooley street they seem to have met in
one of their back rooms and resolved
that they are the people. 1t is rather
surprising that they should expect
commentator of their business from
any reputable paper. Most saloon
men have better sense than that. We
are waging no warfare against
them as individuals and have
undertaken no crusade against their
business with any expectation of put
ing a stop to it. Unfortunately there
are millions of men who have "organ-
lied appetites" for strong drink and
there is not likely ever to be any lack
of men who will supply 1t to them.
We simply contend that low license
and low dives always go together and
that the history of the liquor traffic
and all sumptuary legislation for the
past twenty years furnish ample proof
of the fact that the higher the license
the better the general character of the
saloons. We oppose any reduction on
grounds of public policy from the most
sordid pecuniary standpoint as well as
because it would be a menace to the
moral welfare of the community.

The Rapid Transit Cry.

A striking paper is that of Thomas
Curtis Clarke in Scribners Magazine on
the necessity for rapid transit in cities.
1t suggests the mighty need for a new
Edison to arise, one who shall enable
5,OOO,OOO people day to go to and from
their city work to their homes with
speed and safety. In every part of the
Union the cry is the same The cities
long since outgrew the old fashioned
stage conveyance. They have now out
grown horse car conveyance and are un-
comfortably waiting for that which
shall succeed it.
More Americans than Europeans
make the daily trip to business from the
suburb. In New York 1,643, 900 persons
a day-a number equal to the whole
population of the city-come to and go
from their business on the little island
of Manhattan daily. They are knocked
about, injured and occasionally some
have been killed in the effort to crowd
three persons into car space only large
enough for one.
In Chicago there is the same trouble,
even with the cable lines running swift
ly to and fro. The greatest growth of
Chicago dates from the completion of
these cable lines, Mr.. Clarke tells us.
Increased facilities for rapid Transports
ton increase the population, which in
turn demands new rapid transit facili-
ties, and so the two act and react on
each other. Boston finds great comfort
and satisfaction thus far in the electric
overhead trolley system, which she has
adopted and finds it simple and eco
nomical. But Boston is not one of our
largest cities.
One unexpected fact we find in the
paper, and that is that suburban trans
portation for short distances in America
costs less than half as much as il does in
Europe. The result is that in America
the tendency is to scatter city popula-
tons from the center outward, while in
Europe the movement il toward jam
ming IT all up In the center.

How to Have Good Manners.

Doubtless thousands of young people,
and not small number of old ones,
wish every day of their lives that they
could learn the secret of fascinating
others by means of their graceful, ex-
quisite manners. The secret is an open
one. 1t is so easy to learn thatit lies all
neglected by the wayside, while they
who would give their dearest treasure
to find it pass by unknowing.
1t is only this: Fill your heart with
good will to everybody and then prac-
tice at all times the best manners you
know, particularly at home If you be-
gin at home this charming manner will,
so to speak, get settled on you and never
leave you. Be just as polite to your sis
ter as you would to your best girl. Strive
to gain the good will of mother, father
and brothers and sisters and children
exactly as you strive to gain good will
abroad.
There is no place for practicing man.
ners like the home circle; no place, per-
init one to say, where it will be SO ap-
preciated 1t will be cultivation of
heart, mind and body, this endeavor to
feel nothing but affection for the home
people and treat them as though they
were worthy Of as much consideration
at your hands as If they were the presi-
dent and his family. So they are worthy,
Then from the home will float out
around you those sweet, magnetic infu-
ences which will draw the hearts of all
mankind toward you.

Baron Fava, minister from Italy to
the United States, announces very grace
fully that he is glad to get back to his
old post at Washington. Certainly the
country is glad to have him back, for a
more courteous and capable diplomat
seldom visits America. And both Italy
and the United States are to be congrat-
ulated on the peaceful termination by
arbitration Of an affair which a few
generations earlier in history would GER
tainly have resulted in war. The world
does move.

The decent private in the United
States army is good deal more of a
gentleman than the drinking, gambling,
tyrannical officer who endeavors to fix
great social gulf between them. One
of these officers in public address late
ly went SO far out of his way as an off
Ger and a gentleman as to SANDER the pri-
vate soldier as always a coarse, low fell
low. The fact is that vicious and criminal
characters are not recruited in the Unit
ed States army Very often, in fit of
pique, well educated young men, be-
longing to families of at least as good So
cial standing as those of the persons
who strut over them, enlist in the regu-
lar ranks. This slandering of the grand
little army of the United States will not
elevate in public opinion the so called
gentlemen who indulge in it. A mans
gentlemanhood never shines so brightly
as when he recognizes the gentleman
hood in another.

When the buildings of the Worlds
fair at Chicago are finished they will
look like a collection of splendid, many
colored marble palaces, finished in the
best style and in many varieties of archi-
tectural art. The miracle that makes
them thus dazzling is summed up in the
one word staff What is staff? It is
a plaster preparation which. being put
upon the outside of wooden buildings,
makes them not only freproof, but gives
them look as if they were made Of
marble. Staff can be colored in any
tint, can be wrought into any shape. It
was first used on large scale for some
of the Paris exposition structures, but
even that scale will be surpassed at Chi
cago
