Harrison Reed is going to sue Judge Nc
Council He ought to; and if a jury made
up of anything other than century-old mis-
anthropes ever gets chance to act its
verdict will look as though the appear
ance of Judge McConnelrs salary was
spoiled for some time to come. The cir
cumstances which brought about the pros
pect of litigation are most distressing and their
publication cannot but result in the outflow Of
much sympathy for the unfortunate plaintiff.
Mr.. Reed was to have been married last Tues
day evening to a Logansport, Ind, belle. Ho
was on his way to the place Of ceremony when
deputy sheriff took possession Of him and
rushed him to the circuit court, there to do
duty juror. There Reed stated the facts
to Judge Mcconnell and asked to be excused,
but the judge was obdurate and kept Reed hard
at work for three days. As soon as he was re-
leased the unfortunate man hied him to the
home OF his disappointed sweetheart, but in
stead Of being welcomed he was driven away with
reproaches and epithets simply because he did
not refuse to do the courts bidding. Failing
to secure a wife Reed seeks damages from the
judge. He may get verdict in the lower
court-no one can tell what an Indiana jury
will debut the chances are that the only one
who will make anything out of the case will be
Mr.. Reeds counsel This is a cold world, full
to the bung with disappointments and sorrows,
and, although the great popular heart will throb
in unison with the aortal movements in Mr.
Reeds frame, the law governing jury duty will
hardly be changed, nor will the courts be COM
PEELED to excuse man who pleads a matrimo-
NAL engagement. But Judge Mcconnell is a
horrid thing anyhow.

Ardent admirers of excessively violent ath-
letics have heretofore been most inclined
toward foot ball because the casualties in con-
nection with that pleasing sport have been
much more plentiful than in the national game
with which so many excellent people beguile
the summer hours away, but there is promise
of physical danger in base ball that promises
to rob the winter game of most of its
attractiveness. On Friday last nine young
men from Harrisonburg, Va, tried conclu-
sions with an equal number Of players from
the Staunton Military Academy. The score
was II to 0 in favor of the Stauntonites, when
a Harrisorburg partisan used offensive language
to a cadet and had his head split open with a
bayonet seabbard for his pains. A general en-
gagement ensued in which everybody was dam
aged to greater or less extent II this exam
pie proves to be contagious the sun will soon
set on the popularity Of football in the United
States. In Great Britain, however, the game
will continue to be played In that country,
during the last season, there resulted from foot
bail some twenty-si1 deaths, thirty-nine broken
legs, twelve broken arms, twenty-five broken
collar bones and seventy-fve other injuries;
and cricket can never produce such a record as
that.

French scientist Of some eminence insists that
such electrical shocks as are administered in

two severed portions Of his frame. There are
some distasteful features in the old ak and

In the not far distant city Of Chicaso-for q

In the not far distant city Of Chicago-for o
thousand miles as nothing in this age of steam
and electricity-there should today be great
rejoicing. and from this center of jubilation
ought to radiate beams of national and intel
lectual pride which would illuminate even the
most distant corners Of the republic. The
Worlds Columbian xposition-planned to
commemorate the landing of Columbus on the
shores Of the western hemisphere and to give
proof Of the marvellous advancement mankind
has made in the intervening four centuries
has been thrown open to the public in an APP
propriate yet unostentatious fashion. Such q
display OF the results consequent upon human
ingenuity and human industry has never before
been gathered together in one place. Other
nations have exhibited the work Of their hands
after fashion similar to that now
operating in the western metropolis, but none
have undertaken on so extensive a scale nor
have any met with so much international en-
eouragenent The toilers of all lands have
contr ibuted to the evidences of mortal great
ness, and the people of the United States have,
in the main. supported the project with all
loyalty. Chicago, wealthily energetic, and
DESTROYS of showing the world what the new
west is and can do, poured out its gold by mil
lions that the gigantic undertaking might be a
success. Upon the shores Of Lake Michigan a
city-more beautiful than any other In the
