On and after May 10 next licenses is
sued to storekeepers in this city to sell
liquor not to be drank on the premises
will cost $500 year instead of $50 as
heretofore. The new rate, which applies
to those whose sales aggregate less than
$500 year, was agreed upon by the
excise board ON Tuesday. Its adoption
is salutary, practicable and proper
measure of excise reform.
1t is salutary because it will tend to
restrict the evil Of surreptitious drink
ing in grocery, provision and drug stores
which are patronized by women, and Ia
which the charge for liquor is added to
the cost of household commodities.
1t is practicable. because it will aug
ment the city's excise revenues without
a corresponding increase in the number
of saloons or in the amount Of liquor
sold.
1t is proper, because it will do away
with the unfair distinction which has
heretofore existed between ordinary sa-
looms where liquor is sold openly and
stores where the same article is sold pri-
vately.-New York Sun.

leaving the city he deposited with him a

PRICE ONE CENT


Secretary Gresham has been fortunate
enough 70 score a success within the first
six weeks of his service at the head of
the department of state.
Peru has promised full reparation for
the recent attack upon our consular
agency at Mollendo, and as an earnest of
her purpose has already removed from
office the subprefect of the department
IN which the assault occurred. Minister
Hicks, IN reporting the affair, spoke of
the person who had been wounded as an
acting consular agent, and since Mr..
Griffith is our accredited representative
at Mollendo a native of Peru NAV have
been in temporary charge of the con-
sulate during the outbreak of mob vio-
lence. But Mr.. Gresham's demand for
reparation was based ON the offense COM
united against the government as well
as on the injury to person and property.
Prompt as that demand was, the re-
sponse of Peru has been equally quick
and unequivocal. She has expressed her
regret for the occurrence, so that the
apology due 10 the government is prac-
tcally complete, and the proper amount
OF indemnity can easily be settled. This
little incident, sprung upon the new state
department and rapidly disposed of, may
have an indirect influence much beyond
its intrinsic Importance as practical
experience of the value of courteous
frankness and vigor in dealing with for
eign nations. New York Sun.

ANNAPOLIS EVENING. O. 1898


Boston Is much stirred over the re.
.usal OF the commissioners of public In
stitutions to accept a present of rocking
chairs for the aged and infirm pauper
women at Rainsford island. A fund Of
500 had been subscribed by private be-
nevolence, and the chairs had been
bought and shipped TO the island, but
the commissioners would not let the old
women have them, and they remain on
the wharf. The mayor of Boston. who
appoints the commissioners, wrote note
requesting them to accept the chairs.
The commissioners still refused, and re-
terred the matter to the common coun-
ell. The common council voted unani.
mously in favor of accepting the chairs,
and the aldermen concurred with only
one dissenting voter.
Strong pressure was, however, brought
to bear upon the council and aldermen
by the commissioners Some of the
aldermen We're taken down the harbor
TO Rainsford island and came back re.
porting that there was already one rock
ing chair for every three women, and
more chairs would be a needless luxury.
The result was that the council and
aldermen were induced to reconsider
their vote and refer the whole matter to
the committee ON public institutions,
which means shelving it indefinitely.
The insolent and unreasonable beha-
vior of the commissioners is understood
to be due to grudge against Mrs. Alice
n. Lincoln, who was active in raising
the money for the rocking chairs, and
who has aroused the ire of the commits
sioners by previous efforts to better the
condition of the paupers and to reform
certain abuses which have caused the
loss of more than one life. Boston Wo-
