New Orleans is to be pitied. For years
and years, until the present season, the
Crescent City has maintained a proud po-
sition at or near the top of the baseball
record table. But now her name is way
down towards the bottom, and New Or
leans spirits are correspondingly low
The States has, apparently, put its politi-
cal editor on the baseball desk, with in
structions to turn the rascals out" or
know why, and day after day he pours
choice invective upon the devoted heads
of ''Ab" Powell and Charlie" Cen
Singer in the hope that they may be
induced TO get rid of the ''mugwumps"
and employ stalwarts. With the river up
and her ball club down. New Orleans is
in bad way.

An Unexpected Surplus.


The appearance of a surplus in the pension
appropriation, after paying all dues to July
l, is gratifying result of the change in the
management of that bureau The surplus is
not large 1t is estimated at about II 60O. 600,
But ii is reached after taking care of def
cheney Of more than S14 600 900 left over from
Raums administration. There is reason to
expect that stoppage OF the robbery Of the
people through the enormous pension frauds
already discovered, to say nothing OF others
in sight will make the showing for next year

The statement is made that Ambas-
sador Bayard has not accepted an invita-
tion to dine with the Golden club of
London, as had been previously reported.
The correction was cabled to this country
on Mr.. Bayard's authority, though why
he should have desired correction is not
apparent. There certainly cannot be
great harm in eating a good dinner in
pleasant company, even if that company
is the bugbear of the republican party.

4 sensational story that gained circula-
ton in London in connection with the
sinking OF the battleship Victoria off
Tripoh was to the effect that there had
been no collision with the Camperdown
but that the Victoria had been rent by
the explosion of a bomb placed in her
hold by Fenians. Two months ago, it
was said, the Scotland Yard detectives
had been advised that the F'enians would
strike blow lin a quarter least ex-
pected" and where an enormous amount
OF damage would ensue, The probabil-
ity is that the story is only idle specula-
ton 1t would have been surprising if no
such story had been started.

From the New Orleans Picayune.

L
Come, wife, said good old Farmer Gray,
80 Put on your things, tbs market day
And we II be off to the nearest town,
There and back ere the sun goes down.
Spot No wen leave old Spot behind"
But Spot he barked, and Spot he whined,
And soon made up his doggish mind
To follow under the wagon.
Away they went at good round pace,
And JOY came into the farmers face;
Poor Spot, - said he, did want to come,
But I'm awful glad he's left at home;
He Il guard the barn, and guard the cot,
And keep the cattle out Of the lot"
Il m not so sure of that" thought Spot
The little dog under the wagon.
The farmer all his produce sold,
And got his pay in yellow gold,
Then started homeward after dark
Home through the lonely fOrest.4 Harki
A robber springs from behind tree
ID Your money or else your life', says he;
The moon was up but he didn't see
The little dog underline wagon.
Spot ne'er barked, and Spot ne'er whined,
But quickly caught the thief. behind;
He dragged him down in the mire and dirt
And tore his coat and tore his shirt
Then held him fast on the miry ground:
The robber uttered not sound
While his hands and feet the farmer bound
And tumbled him into the wagon.
So Spot he saved the farmers life,
The farmers money, the farmers wife;
And now hero grand and gay,
A silver collar he wears to-day;
Among his friends, among his foes,
And everywhere his master goes,
He follows on his horny toes,
The little dog under the wagon.

The Brunswick Times warns South
Georgia that at therate things are going
on, by the time the senatorial campaign
is begun in earnest there will be no posi-
BILE chance for the success of a South
Georgia candidate. 1--WE will have candi-
dates strewn all along the line from
Savannah to Columbus, and all along the
shoaling ground to Macon" says the
Times. Here is natural alliance torn
into shreds, with the balance of power
thrown into the mountains; and when
you give the North Georgian the dicker
he will swap muley bull for Kentucky
racer in precious short time" Our con-
temporary appears to be needlessly
alarmed. The election is a long time off
yet, and it is the glorious privilege of
every Georgian to be "mentioned in con
nection with the senatorship" by his
friends Possible candidates are merely
being discussed now} the best man in
Georgia is wanted for the place He will
be discovered and his claims and accom-
plishments made known in due season.
And may the best man win. 1t is to be
hoped that he will be South Georgian,
but it is not a good idea to draw sectional
political lines through the state.

The Car of all the Russias has hbeled
two New York tug boats for running into
one of his war-ships and sinking one of
his steam launches. The car demands
$4,000 damages. The tugs were pulling a
tow of canal boats at the time of the col
lision, and the war-ship was at anchor
The cars bill of libel charges that after
the collision the tugs did not stop to
learn what harm had been DONE nor to
offer assistance to the cruiser, therefore
he demands damages. 1t sounds little
ridiculous to hear of an emperor kicking
because the insignificant little tugs did
not stop to offer assistance to his great
war-ship, which is capable of blowing
both tugs out of the water at one puff
but the marine laws are Intended to cover
an emperOr's war-ship as well as an oys-
terman's catboat.
