SENT HIM HER CARD.
And 1t Did Not Make a Good Impression

rCincinnali ENQUIRER.


There's no sure way Of estimating the
moral status of young women with whom
Won are not acquainted. A Broadway-c car
conductor learned that lesson the other
evening.
Mr.. and Mrs Smith had been married
wear or so, but she was only BIT of a
thing. with a childish face. They started
down town together. He went out on the
front platform to finish his cigar, for they
were settled-down. married folk, though
she was so young-looking. As she neared
the place for her to get on she remembered
a message she wanted 10 give to her hus-
band. The car was quite full, and she
hated to get up and 60 the length of IL TO
speak 10 him.
So she took q card from her case and
wrote the necessary line or so on the back.
Then when she reached her corner she
stopped the car and went to the back plat
form to get of.
Twill YOU" she said to the conductor,
handing HIM the card. give this to the
gentleman on the front platform-the one

The conductor looked severely at her
and he said What. Miss?"
Two respectable dowagers glared at the

the other: There ought to be law about
such things."

OF course, Smith had discovered some

his fist at the conductor, who nearly jerked

HENRY GRAOYS CHALLENGE.
A Rival Editor Received it and Then
Threatened to spank Him.

Henry w. Grady once challenged man
to fight duel. 1t happened IN Rome, Ga,
where Grady was then publishing the Conn
nercidi. h. +. Saver, old enough 10 be
Grady's father, was getting out an opposl-
tion paper called the Courier.
One day Joel Chandler Harris was in the
Courier Office talking TO Sawyer, when VIII
liam Grady. brother OF the journalist.
came in. bowed stiffiy. and handed Sawyer
a sealed note. Then William Grady, with
a very solemn countenance and very i'll at
ease, waited standing for Sawyer to read
the note.
SAWYER had merely nodded to Grady and
continued talking 10 Harris. He took the
note and opened it mechanically. Still
keeping up the conversation, and never
once noticing Grady, Sawyer glanced at
the note, smiled, and then seemed to have
forgotten the interruption altogether. He
talked and laughed with Harris for ten or
fifteen minutes longer, Grady still stand
ing unnoticed, until the youngster inter-
rupted awkwardly:
"Will YOU give me an answer"
SAWYER nodded. deliberately tore the
note into small pieces, continuing this
while his conversation with Harris, and
finally turned 10 Grady with the answer:
lyon tell Henry that | said he needs
a spanking. Bill. and that l have great
mind to give it to him."
Bill Grady stared in blank establishment
and Indignation. and then left without an
other word.
"Bill's feelings seem to be hurt" re-
marked Harris. What's the matter Z"
He brought me a challenge TO fight a
duel with Henry" said Sawyer.
Henry Grady. who had spent the fore
noon shooting at a sapling in preparation
for the duel, was considerably put out Z"
at first.
What can do?" he asked friend.
~ can't publish him. for he didn't even
answer my note, and everybody in town
would be laughing at me If told what has
happened. | can't cowhide him, for he
would spank me, sure enough. II l tried
that What would you do?"
That evening, however, Grady was able
to appreciate as thoroughly as any one the
humor of the situation, and told the story
at his own expense.

The mention the other day of Mr.. Arthur
Cohen in connection with the. vacant
iudgeship was not the first time that this
Queens counsel has been spoken OF tor the
bench. When the late Sir Charles Butt
was sitting one day as arbitrator IN an I'M
portant mercantile case. with Mr.. Cohen
before him. letter from the Lord Chan
celor addressed TO the latter was brought
in. and Mr.. Cohen requested an adjourn
ment on urgent private Affairs. Sir Charles
Butt afterwards said that the letter was
one offering judgesnip 10 MIR. Cohen, and
that Mr.. Cohen, who was then Der or
Parliament for Southwark, refused the
offer IN order not to Inconvenience his par
ty by an election.
The .Jeoish Chronicle, which tells this
story, thinks that a different and more pc
culiarly appropriate line than judgeship,
in which Mr.. Cohen's singular acquire
ments may be utilized in the service or the
country, will be found. Mr.. Cohen was
employed in the Geneva arbitration. he
was Junior to Lord Selborne in advocacy
before the tribunal which met In Swltzer-
land twenty years ago TO decide upon the
Alabama claims. Important international
questions are now pending, and 1t IS not
impossible that in connection with some
of these Mr.. Conen's singular abilities and
experience may be utilized.
1t is reported. telegraphs the st. Peters
burg correspondent of the Standard, that
the Russian government intends shortly
to close the legal profession TO Jews. Inls
would be heavy blow 10 them, leaving,
in tact, nothing but medicine open to that
prosecuted race.

Tho Democratic Cyclone.

A cyclone came from north to south,
From east 10 western town,
And knocked the Third party smack smo'

And turned tho Radicals down.
The elements we're rustling
With ballots In the air
That did the work for Carnegie,
The protected millionaire.
They killed the hateful force bill
And knocked the tariff dat
They elected Grover Cleveland,
That siaunch old Democrat
IL took a sweeping cyclone
To impress the simple facts,
That the safety OF the country
Depends on Democrats
That the tariff as a burden
The people cannot bear;
That Il fosters the monopoly
And makes the millionaire.
That IL takes the breai OF honest toll
10 fatten ravenous greed;
That the harvest is not gathered
BY those who SOW the seed.
That the lords Of high protection
Gather up the shining gold,
While the laborer neglected
Is q sheep without the fold.
The Democrats have said it.
They'll ABIDE the Golden Rule:
Do always unto others
As you'd have them do 70 you.
And thus by helping oil alike
by equity's just plan,
We'll execute tho gtll OF God
By eleyating man.
We want our burdens iightened.
We want sons< tax removed.
We want 20 zoe our country
In many ways improved

It's wonderful what changes time brings
about. Fifteen years ago such body OF
men from the extreme eastern part OF the
city as the Rockets Democratic Club could
have taken uumolestc. lssage through
every street and alley between the old
brewery and the New Reservoir, and yet
i'm their march on Thursday night from
their headquarters TO the point on twenty
fourth street, where they were TO JOIN the
big procession, its members were
stoned by some pestiferous miscre-
ants who were hidden from view.
The unterrified Democrats kept
up their course, but each one mentally re-
solved to ascertain who their assallants
were. Should such a revelation be made
to them q rock-b proper such as used
to take place between the Union and

occur. In the fusilade Of Thursday night
Councilman Mountcastle's Cleveland hat
