THE unexpected sometimes happens
even in politics. In Jersey City recently
the republicans of certain ward, in
which there is a large democratic ma
jor;ty, met to nominate candidates for
various offices, a mere formality for the
sake Of party discipline. The last place
to be filed was that of justice of the
peace. AS a joke one man suggested
the elevator boy of the building in which
the meeting was held as the candidate.
1t was seconded and carried. The cleo
ton came and the elevator boy found
himself duly elected justice of the peace.
The boy was a sensible one and stuck to
his elevator.

THE news from the Old World indi-
Gates that a large part of the eastern
portion of European Russia is again
menaced by famine. In the govern
ment of Perm the privation is reported
to be worse than ever before. The poor
are dying off by hundreds, and the NOR
tally is so great that in some places
the people have ceased to bury the
dead. Doubtless in other portions of
the vast empire the crops have been
good enough to leave cereal food to
spare for others after providing for
wants at home, but the facilities for
transportation are bad and the people
suffer whenever local crops fail.

ANOTHER danger now threatens the
man who writes love letters to girl
and then doesn't marry her. The world
already knows how apt such letters are

of elocution, who is suing gentleman
for breach of promise, has won over the
jury to her side by reading his letters
in open court with all the skill Of her
art. No doubt other women will follow

coming more apparent every day.
