True Executive Clemency.

Few criminal cases have attracted
more attention in this vicinity than
that resulting in the conviction of the
girl Emma Colby. and her sentence to
five years Imprisonment for larceny
to which it is plain she was no more
than an accessory after the fact.
Popular interest would in any event
have been directed toward the case on
account of the remarkable instance of
telepathy which it presented in the rev.
elation of the particulars of the larceny
through medium of a dream. But at
tended as it was by a practical miscar-
riage of justice in the conviction of the
more blameleSS of the two prisoners
and the acquittal of the principal de-
PENDANT, general attention has been for
a long time directed toward those who
were immediately concerned in it.
The intlictiOn of SO severe a sentence
made necessary by the statute, rendered
Miss Colby an object of much popular
sympathy. The prompt recognition by
Gov. Nelson of the merits of the case
and of the rightfulneSs of that Sympa-
thy will receive general approval. In
this, his first most noticeable executive
act, he shows his ready appreciation of
a popular demand founded in Justice.
No doubt had there been any reason
for hesitancy in accepting the view
| which generally prevailed, that the priS-
Oner had been made the victim of acct
dental circumstances. the governor
| would have manifested the same spirit
of justice in the other direction. Hav-
ing willingly given testimony which
ought to have put the conviction of
| her principal beyond all question, she
on her.
The action of the governor will be
heartily concurred in by all who have
knowledge of the facts developed in
| the prosecution. Paul Dispatch.

social possibilities of the kindergarten which are
important factors in philanthropic work. would
not be realized. for the public school teacher is
not required to know. and seldom does know any
thing of the home life of her pupils. Indeed her
long hours and many pupils render this impossi-
BILE. In all philanthrOpic kindergartens. how
ever. visiting in the homes of the children is an
essential part of the work. and the kindergarten
is frequently a welcome visitor where no city
missionary would be admitted. often supplying
what is most needed. namely. a friend The
true kindergarten regards not merely the intel
the hands. 1t has a purpose entirely distinct
from that which is practically recognized in the
school 1t seeks to make children joyous. pure,
truStful. dOcile. reverend and unSelfSh, while it
is conceded that the effect of school influences is
often the very opposite. Many of the faults of
the school are traceable to the fact that so many
pupils are assigned to one teacher that she can
not give them attention individually, and the
same conditions are found in most of the public
kindergarten thus far established. The true kin
dergarten idea is to develop the highest possibil
tiles of each individual child. and at the same
time so to cultivate the social feeling that the in
diyidual will be subordinate to the good of the
community. To promote these ends, the kin
dergarten must be in sympathetic relations with
each of the children. and therefore the number
must not be too great.-Angeline BROOKS. in the
Century lI0gdzine for January.

IT required several columns of the
greatest newspapers in the land to tell
of the arrival of Mitchell, the English
prize fighter, in this country yesterday.
There is a craving for news of this kind.
The public demand it and the news
paper that would live must give the
public something of what it demands
All the same those exhibitions of brute
force known as prize fights can serve
no possible purpose and deserve the
severest condemnation. The glittering
prizes sometimes offered, as in the case
of the Sullivan-Corbett fight, cannot
fail to affect injuriously the intellect
and morals of young men whose ten
denotes are toward evil. The associa-
tions of the prize ring are always de-
moralizing.

THE republicans are keeping mum on
the subject of silver these days. Sena-
tor Sherman made considerable capital
a few weeks ago by stating that the re-
publican eagerness to repeal the silver
bill was so great that if ten democratic
senators voted for a repeal bill the
government would no longer buy 49,
500, 900 worth of silver month. When
Senator Hill brought up the bill last
week and put the question to a vote,
fifteen democrats and fourteen republi-
cans voted for the repeal, but they were
overwhelmed by forty-two adverse
votes, the majority of the voters being
republican senators. The republicans
evidently wish to put the burden of re-
sponsibility for silver legislation on the
democratic administration. 1t is pos
sible that Mr. Cleveland will call an
extra session of congress to consider the
question a short time after his inaugu-
ration,

SAYINGS OF PHILLIP BROOKS.

NEVER fear to bring the sublimest
comfort to the smallest trouble.
THIS representative man is a man
who sees all material things only as the
means of spiritual culture, to whom i'm
mortality is n first fact of human exist
ence, to whom God is more real than
his brethren, to whom sin is the one
evil of all the grooming and complain
ing world.
If anybody has ever felt that his life,
with its little woes, was easier to bear
because there were great men living
the same human life with him, he can
understand it perfectly. The men of
larger life of whom he knew never came
near him, never touched his life, never
spoke to him, perhaps never knew of
his existence.
ST. PETER felt dimly that the life of
Jesus was opening into something SO
large that an which had gone before
would be seen to have been only the
vestibule and preparation for what was
yet to como. He vaguely felt that his
death, in whose shadow they were sit
ting, was the focus into which all the
lines along which they had travelled
were converging, only that they might
open into larger and more wonderful
fields of experience.

Bohemians Going South.

Nearly three hundred bohemian fami-
lies that have found the great north
west too cold for them nrc about to mi
CRATE to warmer climate in Old Vir-
ginia. Tho scheme to form colony of
Bohcmians short distance from Peters
burgh, Va, is being brought to sue
oessful conclusion by Chicago banker
and real estate broker. About twenty
five thousand acres have been purchased
and townsitcs are to be located thereon.
The BOhemians who are going to locate
there are immigrants who founded
homes In various districts of the north
west but have found the rigors of the
clima ate too severe. Most of them have
been in this country only few years,
but In that time they have had enough
OF the excessive heato of summer and the
cold of winter to induce them to seek
other homes in q moro congenial cline.
The country in which they propose to
locate Is more like Bohemia than the
| rolling prairies of Minnesota and Mani
toba. But the main reason for their
migration is that, being an industrious
people, they find that the long and
severe winters prevent them from be-
ing as actively engaged in farm work
as they were accustomed to at home.

eral use a severer and more ecclesiastic-
al style of church music. He is op-
posed to the modern operate style, and
an allocution and an order on the sub

GILBERT and Sullivan have become
reconciled, and new Gilbert-Sullivan
opera is to be produced in London next
fall. Mr.. Gilbert has already outlined
the plot of his new work, and he has
gone to Monte Carlo to join Sir Arthur
Sullivan for the purpose of settling de-
tails.
NEARLY nine hundred competitors
for admission into the Paris conserva-
tory came forward last year; two hun
bred and twenty-six were young plan
lists, and one hundred and thirty-seven
violinists. OF the pianists only sixteen,
and of the violinists only twelve were
admitted.
SIR ARTHUR SULLIVAN, the composer,
says that there is no place where he has
so many inspirations to composition, as
in railway-carriage. The rapidity of
the motion, the changing of the iron
and the whirring of the wheels excite
his imagination and furnish material
for host of harmonies.

NO NEW CABINET APPOINTMENT.

Smiths Selection Makes New England or
Western Men Probable for Other Places.
LAKEWOOD, n. j., Feb. 17.-Mr. Cleve-
land remained at home all day yesterday,
and had no caller of political prominence,
lie is not yet ready to name the men
who will be Secretary of the Navy, Sec
rotary of Agriculture, and AttorneyGen
eral.
The candidates who were supposed to
have the best chances for the three posi-
tions were Congressman Hilary A. Her
bert, eX-Gov. Francis, of Missouri and
ex Solicitor General jerks, of Philadel-
phia.
The selection of Hoke Smith, of
Georgia, and Senator Carlisle, of Ken
lucky, is, however, said to weaken the
chances of Hilary A. Herbert, for the
reason that he would make the third
Southern man, while New England and
the Far West would go unrepresented in
the Cabinet.
There is no certainty, however, that
Mr.. Cleveland will regard geographical
lines in the selection of his Cabinet.

OCCASIONALLY a fool is dealt with
according to his folly. Some Kentucky
school boys combined to attach a roman
candle to a dogs! tail. Their teacher
took part in the operation. AS a con-
cession to humane ideas of the treat
ment of dumb brutes the fire end of the
candle was pointed away from the dog,
so as not to burn him, but while the
teacher had his jaws spread with
laughter at the antics of the dog that
animal cavorted around just right to
lodge one of the fire-balls in the
teachers mouth.
