Tho Crowds In tho Midway.

Referring 70 the crowds in Midway
plaisance in Jackson park, correspond
ent writes to the Paris Figaro: "They
move along like procession of QuakerS
They have no jokes, no frolics, no shouts.
no fun. The dead silence that marks
their promenade makes one think Of the
professions of the pupils of some deaf
and dumb institution" etc.
This is not strictly true-not SO truth
full as it would be for US to say that the
Partisan idea of fun and frolic involves
barricades. riots. murder. arson and
queen killing.
We are grateful for serviceable sus-
gestions. but we must beg to be excused
from practicing that kind of sport which
appears to be SO popular in Paris and
which has made Paris infamous in his
tory. We are proud that we have re-
manned, in spite Of all temptations, so
Quakerish as to regard with horror the
lewd fun, the lubricious jokes, the bawdy
shouts and the licentious frolics which
the correspondent of Figaro ruefully fails

when he regained consciousness was
whether the newspapers would know all
about it, and he appeared to be greatly
relieved when he learned that it had
been kept secret. The gentleman who
knew of this incident said that the sena-

Why Newport Lacks Single Mon

One reason why there are no more
ycuny men in Newport is because those
bachelors who in times gone by were
fortunate enough to be the guests of the
young married women rather exceeded
the bounds of good behavior by accept
ing invitations to dine at other houses
without consulting their hostcsses. 4
young Enslishman. who has been made
muc. of in New York. was asked to spend
Sunday at Newport and Immediately on
arrival informed the lady of the house
that she needn't feel at all bothered by
getting UP things to amuse him, az he
had accepted Invitations for every meal
during his stay i'll the place. This was
simply one OF the many cases.. and final

Henry Watterson. who is at tho

GUS things to be found in Midway
plaisance. He tells the story thus: Il
had heard several remarks made about
the terribly wicked things to be found
in Midway. and in the interest of man.
kind in general concluded that it was
my duty to see them. and if necessary
raise my voice and WELD my pen i'll
t'yins things about them. Well. l
nave saw them'-as al old friend of
mine in Louisville says-and the ver-
dict have reached is that the Midway
plalsance has no right to be connected
in any way with such wonderful
show rs the Worlds fair. There is
nothing of interest there to me except
the types of people. The so called
shows are frauds and fakes Those
that are advertised as being obscene and
vulgar are weak and vapid. There is
nothing terrible about them at all. and
the mysterious whispered comments
upon their broadness are unnecessary

A Novelty In Trolley Roads.

In an electric road recently construct
ed i'll England radical departure from
American methods has been made. A
trolley Wire is suspended from arms pro-
jecting from steel columns. No guy
wires are employed, as the steel wires
are especially designed to Withstand Sc
we're strains. At the corners the trolley
wire, instead of following curve of the
same radius of the track. as in the Amer
ican systems, is turned ON an angle, the
whole system depending on the fexibili-
ty of the trolley arm. or side collector,
as it is called. which automatically en-
cages the trolley wire in any position
from two to twelve feet from the side Of
the car.
Another change from American prac-
tice is the adoption of a pressure of only
$50 volts. The cars are only % feet long
and are equipped with two motors of Is
brake horsepower, running at AGO revo-
lutions.-Philadclphia Press.

Why n CITY Flat liz Closed,

There is one fiat up town which has
been closed month earlier than origin
ally intended owing to tie j;:nitor and
the hallboy.
When the family moved in last May
everything ran smoothly for awhile
That was because the head of the family
tipped" the janitor literally and frc.
qnently employed his wife, But when a
servant was engaged the janitor began
to sour.
Then a hul.boy was hired. and he re-
fused to open the door unless he got a
fee regularly. Between the two life was
made unbearable for the family, and in
moment of despair the fat was closed
for the summer.
The head of the house is worrying his
head of now trying to think Of setne
course to pursue when he gets his family
back to town that he may live in peace
without spending all his pocket coin in
tips and without being forced to move

in that direction. The steering COM
mitteo has ceased its efforts to steer for
