worlds Fair Incident.

A man from Boston with a black
wallet in his hand stopped at a
mineral water fountain 10 sip a drink.
This cost him one cent. While he
was drinking the water he laid LIS
his pocketbook upon the counter OF
the booth. He did not pick it up as
he walked away. Miss Katie Morse,
who stood behind the.couuter, placed
the wallet in q drawer. A half hour

American women and OrIentaIs.

a great deal of interest is said to
have been displayed by feminine
visitors at the Worlds Fair in the
Turkish officials and other masculine
Orientals. One marriage between a
young Turk and an American girl is
already announced 10 take place in
the near future, ard it does not seem
unlikely that other matches may fol-
low.
If this is the case it may be regard
ed as certain that the American
young women who marry Asiatics
will bitterly regret their folly before
they are many years older. Wide as
the difference is in thought, beliefs
and habits between Europeans and
Americans, it is of trivial Importance
compared with the gulf that separates
the ways of America from the ways
of the Orient. Marriages between
Europeans are productive of perma-
nent humiliation and unhappiness
to the American wives in the great
majority OF instances. Marriage be-
tween an American girl and a Moham-
medan must result in infinite misery
Tor the wife.
In the eyes of the followers of Islam
woman is a mental, n serf. Some
Moslem authorities even deny her
the possession of a soul. Mohamme-
danism not only sanctions but ell
courages polygamy with all the
degradation ofwomanhood it implies.
There is only one woman the Oriental
rcspects-his mother. His wife is
simply his female slave.
When American and English
women have married Mohammedans
who were sojourning in their re-
spective countries in a diplomatic or
some other official capacity. they
have generally either disappeared
from view forever in the harems Of
their husbands when they returned
to the East, or else have returned
heart broken wrecks of their former
selves TO the Western homes they
had foolishly forsakcn. The expert
ment has been tried sufficiently to
its utter hopelessness. There may be
a Glamour of and Oriental
mystery about the visiting MOslcm.
The girl who is so fascinated by it
that she gives her heart into his keep
ing is ~tolerably sur to spend the rest
of her life lamentIng her Tremcdiablo
mistake. The best husbands for
American young women are Ameri-
can young men

The Best IN the Market.

1t is a well known fact that some of
the finest whisky in this market is the
celebrated goods from the wholesale
house of J. W. McCulloch, Greensboro,
kentucky. The goods from this house
have not been extensively advertised
nor do they need advertising TO any
great extent. They have the merits
that commend them to all judges of
good liquors.
The following dealers in this city
sell the McColloch brands of whisky.

liquors should call on them and cali

"There isn't the slightest doubt OF

An exchange truthfully remarks:
@Lawyers stand up in courthouses be-
fore justice, in the presence of large
audiences and denounce men as liars,
scoundrels, thieves and procured vii
lians, and when court adjourns the
men thus abused appear to harbor no
ill-will against them. But let a news

Democracy would end

Progress Democracy would undo.
In 1888 imported wire nails cost
the American consumer $40 a keg.
To-day he f.uys a better quality OF
wire nails of domestic manufacture
for $l.90 q key.
In 1883 Americans paid $6S per ton
for English wire rods. To-day do
nestle wire rods Of q superior quality
cost $50 per ton.
Ten years sgo the American farmer
paid 10 cents q pound for barb wire
for fences. Now he gets his barb
wire for 9 IA cents g pound.
Yet the Democratic party wants to
destroy the protective system, which
has chespened these products by build,
ing up home industries in which
American workingmen get more than
twice as much wages as the same class
of labor gets abroad.

The Persecution of salva.lonl.,.

The Persecution of saivationists.
The pastors and members of the bar
of jersey City, who have protested
against the persecution of the Saliva
ton Army by the police, deserve the
support and commentator of the
public. The age has passed for re-
ligious persecution, whatsoever the
pretext, TO have any hold upon the
popular mind and heart. The mem-
bcrs of the Salvation Army have a
right to worship God in their own
way, provided they do not violate the
laws, and there is a well established
impression, amounting to a principle,
among intelligent Americans, that
the law should be strained in favor
of, rather than against, entire liberty
of conscience. The Salvation Army
is doing excellent work, both here
and abroad, in the cause of religion
and charity. In the slums of London
it has succored and rescued multi
tudes of unfortunatcs, many of whom
have permanently reformed, aud in
America also it has a creditable record
of success in dealing with a class thai
ordinary influences seemed incapable
of reaching.
But the merits or dement's of the
Salvation Army have nothing to dc
with the case. If the Salvationist:
were a baud of Chinese engaged in
the worship of joss the principle
would be the same, and the right o
freedom OF worship should be just n
earnestly indicated and protected
The interference with the Salvation
lists was an outrage, and has been 81
denounced by the pastors of q mum
Der of Jersey City churches, wh'
know no difference of belief whel
such an issue is raised. 1t was all ont
rage for which there should be sigma
and exemplary redress. The principl
of freedom of conscience is too sacre'
{ and fundamental in the America
Republic to be violated with IMMUNITY
