Cowardly Deed.

Some villain drove a wedge in the
wheel of the elevator of the city hall
last night, with view of throwing off
the cables and dropping the car. In
this case the wheel was too strong, and
broke the wedge after the car had gone
UP about five feet. What the mis-
creant's object was is inexplicable.

Gross Doesn't Like 1t.

Thesuperintendent OF the workhouse =,
Matthias Gross, is inclined to resent the
imputation that the appropriation has
been exceeded up to date by $4,000.
While this is apparently true by the fig
ures furnished, Mr. Gross states that
the expenses during the first six months
of the year are very much heavier than
during the last six months. Still. he
admits that there will probably oe a
dedcit ill the appropriation at the end
of the year.

The fact that you've got a patent is q

hire lawyers and fight the thief in the

lawyers longer than you can that settles
you, and you might as well make him 9

ture For Food and Clothes.
A remarkable report has just been is
sued by the Working Womans society
Of this city, which, it is claimed, is based
upon a careful investigation Of the con-
dition of the working women Of the
state.
This report shows that the average
earnings OF the working women are only
e6 per week and that this Is little more
than half the average expenditure per
capita in the United States for food and
clothing, not counting room rent.
The average expenditure per week per
capita in the United States is reported as
S7.3s for clothing and $3.50 for food.
The report deals more especially with
the condition Of the middle aged women
who work for living, and it states that
such women find it extremely difficult to
obtain employment, as most employers
prefer young women who live at home
and accept smaller wages.
A partial invesbga lion Of the aims
houses shows that on Jan. Of this year
there were II, 900 female inmates in 35
counties. According to the census of
1880 there were only 1900 of both sexes
in the almshouses Of the entire 60 coun-
ties.
There are $50, 600 women in this city
engaged in gainful occupations. OF these
z per cent are widowed, divorced or sep
Grated from their husbands, and 10 per
cent are married. Ten per cent are more
than 45 years old, and 3per cent are more
than 80.
Most Of the women who are dependent
upon their own earnings for q livelihood
live in furnished rooms, cooking fol
themselves. Many of them, the repOr
declares, do not eat meat more than ono,
q week, and the majority do not spent
more than 81 a week for food. There i

Professor uoilprin, than whom there
could hardly be better authority, has de-
MED through the columns Of the Boston
Journal all foundation for the rumors
which have had some circulation that
the men Of Lieutenant Peary's party OBJ

chat:
"But how could you endure the three
months Of loneliness while your hus-
band was away on his perilous sledge
journey and you waiting in that awful
desolation for the uncertain endY
Mrs. Peary looked across at the lieu
tenant an instant before she answered
quietly and with peculiar expression,
as II she had weighed the question be-
fore;
"It was better than 10 months" Mrs.
Peary has the courage Of her wifely de-
votion in a remarkable degree, and II

Ths Color Of the Wnisteont.

Life learns from private sources that
when gentleman goes to an entertain
ment to which he has received an en-
graved invitation he should wear white
waistcoat If the invitation is written,
he simply wears the usual black waist
coat. Il is perhaps unnecessary TO In
form our readers that the man who ig-
nores this rule is no gentleman. Still
we hardly like TO advise q hostess to
eject from her house every man whose
waistcoat is not In perfect harmony with
his invitation.
II is not to be expected, however, that
his welcome will be as warm as If his
waistcoat were what 1t ought TO be.
Should he be, for instance, a distin-
guished author, a high church dignitary
or an eminent scientist, the hostess might
allow him to sit In the kitchen rather
than have him elected from the prem
lees.-Life.

It Is a. short step from the nursery to

her child the manners and address de-

qualified than anybody else to provide

fore the women should be encouraged in
their efforts TO secure and retain a voice
in the selection of school trustees. If
the board of education were dominated
by competent women, it is fair to pre-
sumo that the schools would be managed
quite as well, II not better, than they are
at present. II the women seek larger
political rights than they now enjoy,
that, too, is commendable. 1t should
not be text for covert sneers and biting

Many women have no desire for the
suffrage; many men have no desire that

desire IL arc our wives. mothers and

the right to vote, not because they are
our loved ones. but because they have
brains. They have been petted and
pampered and enslaved since the dawn
of creation. Now they want the privi-

A certain modest young woman, who
Is employed as clerk and stenographer
by New York attorney, proved herself
fully equal to an emergency which sud
denly presented itself on a day last
month. The lawyer was absent in
Brooklyn in attendance upon court there.
When the hour Ret for his return came
and passed, his clerk decided that he
must be unavoidably detained, and al
most at once reached a second decision
in consequence.
There was a motion in a case In which
her employer was an attorney pending
in the supreme court, and its hearing be-
fore Judge Lawrence was set down for
chat morning. The motion must be on
at the moment, she thought, and seizing
the papers she hurried over to the court
room, reaching it just as the case was
called. Almost breathless, she stood up,
obtained hearing and stated her case.
The judge listened, smiled and granted
the motion in her favor, and the sensible
girl walked out of court, followed by a
craning of necks among the lawyers to
catch a glimpse Of her.-New York

For many years the wise men have In
sisted upon the importance and beauty
of truth. We read that all the glorious
and lovely productions Of the arts de-
pend upon the truth as upon a solid and
enduring foundation. We read that
poetry and beauty rest upon the con-
genial substance Of truth as a statue
upon its pedestal. But the man has not
as yet arisen who has given the other
side Of the question justice or yielded due
praise to the efforts and worth Of liars.
We respect and revere the truth. We
adhere to 1t in theory and in practice-a
thing rare in the Rdherents Of mere
opinions-but we believe In justice
though the heavens fall. and In all the
good, old fashioned axioms. IN all
