THE LIT1Eh ABOUND THE MARKET.
President Ordway Of the Center market
called upon the Commissioners this morning
with reference to the report of Lieut.. Amiss
upon the condition Of the use of the
Wholesale market spaces on B street northwest
as published in yesterdays STAR. He said that
the market company was willing to take charge
OF the matter and be responsible for the clean
ing Of the street and the preservation of order.
The great object was to permit the occupancy
OF the spaces by bona fide producers only. At
present jayhawkers squeezed themselves into
the places and sold their decayed vegetables
under the guise of farmers.
BIDS OPENED.

day for building hre-proof stairwsys in the
Wallach School building. The bids we're: Pet

Gift Enterprise journalism.


From the Newark Journal.
What is going to be the end Of the remark
able competition for the attainment Of mere
ephemeral circulation" by many Of the news
papers Of the day? II this goes on at its present
rate tho time is not far distant when great
many Of our esteemed contemporaries will
have abandoned all the old and Legitimate
features and purposes Of a newspaper, and the
question will not be which of them can best
record current events, but which OF them can
offer the most attraction to the curiosity hun
ter or the seeker after some paltry prize.
The gift enterprise feature in journalism is a
confession that the newspaper employing this
method to water its circulation cannot stand on
its own merits. The logic Of this is so obvious
that the gift newspaper loses more in its per-
manent standing than it gains in temporary cir
culation by coupon cutting.
Advertisers ask what benefit can accrue to
them from copies of newspapers purchased in
bulk for the sake Of the coupons and then sent
to the junkman. Readers who are saluted
every time they open paper with announce
ments Of votes for the most popular this or
that, or Of alluring gifts of valuable articles.

sailor1nen Bombarded by Aerolites.

From the Philadelphia Recor1.
A meteor sizzling from the heavens came
within few feet of striking the coasting
schooner Earl p Mason OFF Cape Hatteras on
the passage from the Satilla river, Ga, for
Philadelphia. The crew say that it was one Of
the most magnificent spectacles they ever wit
messed. The meteor burst in many pieces and
scattered its seething fragments all around,
some Of which, as they dashed into the sea,
made reports that sounded like . cannonade.
Particles Of the meteor as they few through the
iron struck the water with kissing sounds and
disappeared only to send up masses Of steam
where they had gone down.
The condition OF the atmosphere during the
fall of the meteor was most peculiar. There
were gaseous odors all around, and even the
surface of the ocean glowed as if it we're ablaze.
The heavens, too, appeared to be on fire. From
were long trails of sparks along the clearly out
lined path Of the meteor. 1t became necessary
for the vessel to LAY to- under storm trysaiis
until the atmosphere had assumed its normal
condition. The vessels compass was affected
and the needle fiuctuated without regard to
the cardinal points.
The official log Of the Mason. as written and
reported by Capt. Brown, shows that the
meteoric shower had been preceded by a ter.
rife gale on February 81 in latitude 81 degrees,

From the Kansas City Times.

reporter Yesterday As they watched Q party of
street urchins ''piucking tops near one Of the
big downtown buildings 4 often wonder
how these kids manage to change their games
simultaneously with the season. Just
as the birds begin to COO and twltter and mate
for the nesting season about February IA, SO
the season Of tops, marbles, stills and kite
flying are inaugurated among the young
Americans Of the male persuasion. Girls
skipping ropes and hoops are nothing to
them. The epidemic Of taking mp Q game
when its season rolls around is Is con-
tagious g. We are told the cholera mi
scobes will be next summer. One day
the kids all over the city may be
doing just anything for amusement and
the next every mothers son Of them
will have an old pecked-up top and a piece
Of cord plucking away for dear life. 1t IL in
stinot, think, and nothing else that prompts
them 10 take up osrtsin games ut certain seasons.
Regarding the imitation theory, there never
WAS person who saw the first boy spin his top
In any season, and, furthermore, no boy could
start the epidemic by spinning his top In the
fall Of the year."

MR.. BLoUNr STARTS FOR HAWAII.

The Hsvsase Cutter Rush 10 Taking Him

Hawaiian Commissioner Bio ant, with his
wife and Secretary Ellis Mills. arrived at San
Francisco yesterday morning on the overland
train and within two hours they had saiied

A correspondent boarded the train at
Sacramento and bad . long talk with
the commissioner while he was taking

From tho Arronaut
But what rubbish is all this talk Of "best pos
sible husbands!' A girl takes the man who
offers, If he appears to be upright, honorable
and in earnest II she does not. she runs . risk
Of going to seed, with red nose, . canary bird
and lap dog. The chief trouble with her is
not to know whether she has got the best arti-
Gle in the market, but whether the man, who
says he loves her, means what he says. 1t is
easy for man to acquire the art of lovemak-
ing, and, with little practice, some men can
do 1t quite skillfully. How to know when
they are acting, and when they are obeying
an irresistible and ungovernable impulse, is
the thing girl wants to be able to
determine. Better learn that than make her
self a connoisseur in men. A woman's happi-
ness is to . large degree dependent on the
quality Of him to whom she has given herself,
body, soul and heart, but If he really loves her
she can mold him to her will. Then-consid-
ering that all women believe they know how to
manage" husbsnd-she can make ''good
husband" out Of him, for he will be like clay in
the hands Of the potter.
