Joe Jeffsrson's Boxing Lesson.

Rising young actors usually guard their
positions with jealous eye, and during the
early life OF Joseph Jefferson he was no ex-
cepuon to the rule, says the Philadelphia In
qulrer. When under the management
OF Dion Boucicaut, The Oct broom" was
produced. and IN the announcement of the
pane s, JerecsOns name did not appear.
Being one Of the principals IN the drama, he
naturally felt Indignant. and so he sent his
part TO the thealer with note in which he
resigned from his engagement until new
arrangement could be entered into. About
this time jefferson was suffering from dys
pepsta and conceived the idea that the gentle
exercise OF boxing would relieve him. He en-
gagged professor Of the manly art, and
his boxing lessons were given In the drawing
room OF the house where he was living. The
day following his resignation, he and the pro-
lessor were 1ndulglDg in fierce exchange
when suddenly looking over his opponent S
shoulder, he discovered the amazed faces OF
Dion Boucicault and William Stuart. They
stood aghast at the scene, and fancied that
Jefferson intended settling his difficulties by
an apr ell to science, and had secured the ser
vices OF Il professional brusier 10 assist him.
Their alarm was soon set at rest by Jefferson,
who dismissed the puguilist and came. to a
more explicit understanding without the aid

Eckles and Senator eau,

Controller Eckles is man who doesn't
look upon senator with the awe Of so many
/ Office holders says the Chicago Post. Sena-
| tor call came into his office a short time be-
| fore Eckles went to Chicago. Call wanted a
| constituent appointed bank examiner. He
| had recommended him some time before. and

with people as If he were to the manner

EclSleS, waiting till he had finished speak

| to Call said:
| What is it?"
| Call was caught off his guard. He got his
| breath, though. and repeated his inquiry,
| looking at Eckles the while with what he
| meant to be a keen glance
| i have been too busy Eclles replied.

| "Why-why-why not?" said Call, bit ner-

young man was beginning to hypnotic him.

Yes, 1 know" Eckles replied. "But the
other men are recommended ey congressman,
| and they say their candidates are the best"
But said Call, after he had caught his
| breath, but lowering his tone as if in hopes
the others present would not hear, but my

| What's the matter with congressman -

| A good breath would have blown Call over.
Some one present laughed. The rest smiled.

a man who had failed to respond to the call Of

Justice and Generosity.

From the New York Tribune (Rep).
Mr.. Bail,V, of Texas, has queer ideas OF JUS
tile. The Ntnkruptcy bill being under dis

TO protect some poor person who had he

that any bill which forbade the assiruor to

would be most unjust bill. That sounds
fine, Tut il yi0,a,es a very sound maxim that
puts justice before generosity. II IA failing

widow and has only 500 assets Mr. Bailey
thinks he should pay the widow ana let the

Is it Wise LeEislation?

The haste in which the House passed
the cigarette bill, which prohibits in the
state the sale of any other than "medi-
Gated and cuDeb cigarettes" indicates a
disposition on the part Of the legislature
to give the people little paternal legisla-
ton. 1t is rarely that such legislation is
wise or effective, and it is very much TO be
doubted if it will prove to be so in this
case.
1t is undoubtedly true that cigarette
smoking is exceedingly harmful to boys,
and even 10 many men, and SO are many
other things to which the legislature
would hardly give its attention.
Boys should be prohibited by
the parents from smoking cigarettes,
and men to whom the cigarette habit is
hurtful should be persuaded to give it up.
The passing of law prohibiting the sale
of cigarettes viii not have the effect Of
preventing either boys or men from using
cigarettes. Those who want to smoke
them can get all they want from points
outside of the state at a very small ad-
ditional expense. And they would do so,
if they could not get them within the
state.
But the permission to osell medicated
and cubeb cigarettes opens the way to
putting an inferior article on the market
and giving a monopoly to the manufacture
ers OF what are called ''medicate1 cigar
cites" \ cigarette called ''medi,ated'
would at once be prepared for the Georgia
market and, without additional legisla-
ton there would be no way to prevent
the sale Of it.
great many men smoke cigarettes, and
with no more harm than is received
by others who smoke pipes and
cigars. and, as a general thing, it is prob
able that the tobacco in cigarettes is
about as pure as that in some popular
brands of ci.rr-s and smoking tobacco.
There can be no reasonable objection, of
course, to prohibiting the sale Of cigar
cites that are doctored with opium, or
other things to make them more salable.
Indeed, there ought to be stringent laws
against the sale of such cigarettes, Just as
there is against food articles that are
adulterated, but there is no argu-
ment against the sale of cigarettes made
Of good tobacco and harmless paper that
does not apply to the sale Of smoking to-
bacco and cigars. In fact many men and
boys buy smoking tobacco and make it
into cigarettes, using it in that way.
The Senate, before passing the cigarette
bill, should give it very careful considera-
ton. 1t is not improbable that that body
win conclude that it is the duty Of par
cnts rather than the state to prevent
boys from contracting or indulging in the
cigarette habit:

The reasons given by Senator German
/ in his speech in the Senate Saturday for
( thesattempt which the democratic sena-
/ tors made TO effect a compromise TO take
/ the place of the bill repeating the pur-
( chase clause Of the Sherman silver law, IS
/ calculated to give different impression
/ of the efforts OF those who sought SET
/ tlement OF the silver trouble by
that means than is generally
entertained. According to the reasons he
gave, it was expected to reach an agree
meDt that would have been satisfactory TO
ali democrats, and would have provided for
an issue of bonds 10 meet the deficiency
in the treasury which. it is believed. viii
exist before the end of the present fiscal
year How great the deficiency wi.i BE- can
not now be stated with any degree of az
curacy. II has been estimated as low as
O,OOO 600, and as high as sO,0OO,OOO
Senator German placed the response
biliJy for defeating the compromise upon
Senator Sherman, who is looked upon as
the leader Of the anti-silver republicans.
He declared that Senator Sherman, un-
derstanding the situation thoroughly,
had made it impossible for the demo
Gratis to pursue any other course than
support unconditional repeal.
On his part Senator Sherman said he
never understood that the democrats con-
templated an issue of bonds TO meet the
necessities of the governments that if he
had understood that such a compromise
was contemplated as Senator German
outlined, namely, the coinage OF what is
called the seignoragc Of the silver bullion
in the treasury, future date for the
stoppage Of the purchase of silver and a
bond issue, the matter might have been
arranged.
senator German finally admitted, how
ever, that perhaps, all things considered,
unconditional repeal is better than a com
promise would have been. 1t is far from
certain that any compromise that in
cuded an issue of bonds would not have
met with defeat. AS Senator Voorhees,
has more than once pointed out no signalof
distress has been hoisted at the treasury,
and until there is it is hardly proper Tor
the Senate To take steps for the treasury's
relief
Secretary Carlisle doubtless hopes 10
get along without bond issue. but if he
finds such an issue necessary he will not
hesitate 10 call upon congress for assist
ance. If he should ask for the power to
issue bonds, the country will understand
that republican extravaganza makes such
an issue necessary. When Mr.. Cleveland
went out Office at the end of his first ad-
minisuation, he left an overlooking treas
ury and revenues more than sufficient to
meet all the governments expenses.
When he returned to the presidency last
March he found the treasury bankrupt.
The Harrison administration had squan-
dered the surplus, ana contracted obliga-
tions greater than the revenues would
meet The Democratic party, however,
will not permit the credit Of the govern
ment to suffer. Whatever becomes ncces-
sary to be done to pay the governments
obligations promptly, will be done In
the meantime every effort will be made
to bring the expenses within the reye-
uupS
