An interesting movement is on foot In

years to come. Lime (the principal in
gredient in glass next to SANDY is found in
abundance comparatively close at hand.

Good words For an Old Urtond.

Our venerable and gentle contempo-
rary, the Philadelphia Ledger, celebrates
it's new Office as friendly organ of the
administration by discarding the print
tive blanket form in which it has been
known and loved 80 long in Philadelphia
and the rest of the world and comes
forth in new and seemly modern gar
ment, 2o-pago paper, with illustrations
and all the other improvements of jour
nallsm up to date. We dare say there
will be murmurs along the Schuylldll,
for this old friends face has seemed to
the praisers of past time, which is the
Philadelphian present, one not to be beau
tilted by new gauds.
Yet if The Ledger changes its outward
seeming it will not change its inward
spirit. 1t will still be reelection of Mr..
Childs, kindly and benevolent and placid

perity and virtue, but not puffed up
thereby, devoted editorially in the main

During tho recent elections English

A Wealthy Yagrant.

, A ragged and dirty vagrant who gave
the name of John Walsh, A Hayward
street, Brooklyn, was arrested the other
day by Policeman MCGOWAN at the cor
ner of Fulton and Cumberland streets in
that city. He was charged with loung-
ing and vagrsncy.
When the sergeant took stock of the
contents of the mans pockets, he nearly
tainted with establishment. First roll
of bills amounting to $50 was found,
then an Emigrsnt Savings bank book
showing deposits of $1,000 turned up,
and lastly the officer took from an inside
pocket a book issued by the Provident
Savings bank of Jersey City, which gave
John Walsh credit for having 81 900 in
the banks keeping. Then the man him
self produced from another pocket a
certificate of deposit in an English bank
which added So, 900 to his assets.

vagrant was fined So, which he paid with

THE DEATH OF LUCY LARcoM.
A New England Poet Who Came of Good
Blood Though she Was n MIL Girl.

A New England Poet Who Came of Good
Blood Though she Was n Mill Girl.
Another landmark of New England
character and culture has been removed
by the death of Miss Larcom. She was
true poet, writing songs which We're
not only good from the point of view of
literary workmanship, but which are
cherished by the people for the tender
ness and wholesomeness Of their senti-
inent. She was a lettered and cultivated
woman and never was anything else
from the time she was woman at all.
Foreigners and latter day Bostonians
find it hard to understand this, hearing
that Lucy Larcom was an operative in a
cotton mill for 10 years in her early life.
They think of her as sort of phenome-
non or abnormal development, like Rob
ert Burns or Elihu Burritt, whereas there
was nothing phenomenal in her cultiva-
ton, though there may have been in her
genius Plenty of people of promising
cultivation worked in factories, in the
field or at the forge in those hslcyon
early days of the present century. Not
long since the Listener saw q splendid
collection of daguerreotypes taken from
the time these pictures were first made
up to about the year 1885 They were
chiefly of persons belonging to or in
some way connected with one Vermont
family
The portraits all showed remarkably
fine and interesting faces-the faces ap-
parently of persons of intelligence, cult
walton and spirit--as far as possible re-
moved from the face of the SNUG philis-
tine Of the present day, and being some
what familiar with the history of that
period the Listener was not astonished
to learn that these people were all firm
ers, wagon makers. blacksmiths or work
ing men or women of some sort. There
were musicians and poets among those
high spirited Yankee laborers, and their
talk was of other things than bullocks
and stock reports.
Miss Larcom belonged to the genera
zion which produced such people and
was proud to belong to it. She was no
monstrosity of cultivation springing
from an ignorant race. The New England
country peo7le of the first half of the cen
trry were HIperior III intelligence and
cultivatioer-in real education-to the
mercantile society of the present day.
On Ia hours of labor and less than 81 of
wages day they maintained better
degree Of cultivation than their children
do wEsir fine houscs and plenty of money.
You will find some relics Of this sort OF
old fashioned people in the country dis
tricts still and if yon go to them fresh
from the trials of pretentious suburban
society about Boston you perceive that
you have had considerable lift in the
world

&ering gain we made when, We gave NJ

woman sufrraro In Colorado.

Both houses of the Colorado Legislature
have voted in favor of constitutional
amendment extending suffrage to wom-
en-. Governor Waite has signed the bill,
and the supporters of the measure are
confident that at the next election they
will get an overwhelming majority of
votes. Western men have chivalrous
views on the suffrage question and ac-
knowledge the right OF women to all the
privileges that men enjoy. AS coeduca-
ton received the impetus in the west
that gave momentum to public opinion
in breaking down conservative barriers
and opening the doors Of the greatest
educational institutions in the east to
women, so it is to be given to western
women to demonstrate that women do
desire and viii exercisethe rightof fran
chise. Once the American woman fully
decides and makes her decision known
that she will elect the rulers of the com
nonwealth, she will have the right, as
she has all other privileges within the
power of the American man to bestow.

Compliments Of Herr Krunp.

According to an Interesting rurnor. our
esteemed friend, Herr Krupp, intends
giving that mammoth shooting iron now
at jackson park to Chicago with his
compliments If this is SO, then Herr
Krupp has our best thanks and all the
courtesies that are to be had in such an
ineffably bad season of weather. The
gun weighs 27o, 600 pounds and over,
and as it cost $4,000 to make it Herr
Krupp's testimonial would involve some
aittle expense.
But really we are not at all pure we
know what TO do with the weapon. The
city has no marine defense to sustain,
and couple of trusty derringers in Off
cial hands are the only weapons needed
in clearing out offensive bumboats. 1t
costs 81 200 to shoot the thing, and that
is quite tidy sum to pay for the priv
ilege of bowling over targets placed out
in the midwatsrs of Lake Michigan.
And when it went off we greatly fear
that some Of Mr.. O'Neill's inspected
hotels in the neighborhood would draw
themselves up and drop into dust heaps.
Besides, the thing would have to have a
fort to be housed in. And having one
fort we should need to have two to be
really thoroughly equipped. Having
these, we'd want more guns, and more
marines, and more gunpowder. And
then with all these, what use would they
be unless we got up war just to have
everything in keeping?
Still, it's great gun and an infuen-
tial discourager of inimical advances.
If we must take it, Herr Krupp has our
thanks. Chicago Record.

nritain.s bitter political struggle.

The final passage of the home rule bill
by the commons now seems to be in
sight. The committee stage may be
vexatious and slow, but the bill will go
through within reasonable time and be
sent to its death in the house of lords
That the dead bill will in the end prove
a weapon with which the house of peers
itself will be struck down is confidently
predicted by the Liberal leaders. Before
that day comes, however, Britain must
pass through the bitterest political strug-
gle of her modern history, and a strug-
gle which will involve issues far greater

Predicting rEnrthanakss.

Professor Falb OF Vienna has attained
so1no noturiety FROM the fact that flu
predicted the coming of both series oil
earthquake shocks from which the islar!
of zante has recently suffered.
Earthquake representations have been
recorded as coming true in not few ine
stances, but there is reason to believe
that the fulfllment of the prophecies was
purely accidental. Seismologists are not
likely to give Professor Falb much credit
for prescience. They will say he merely
happened to foretell what was coming.
We may, to be sure, predict earth
auakes in some regions with good deal
Of confidence that the prognosticatior
will come true. If we predict, for in
stance, that an earthquake or eartt
tremors will be felt in Japan tomorrow
the chances are that the prediction VIII
come true, for one or two earth move
mepts on an average are felt in that
country every day, but we cannot tel4
exactly where they will occur or what
degree ofviolence they will exhibit
The greatest boon which could be con
ferred upon regions that are subject +.
violent earthquake shocks would be ths
discovery of some means of foretellins
the coming of these terrible calamities
For years seismologists have given thehl
most earnest attention to this problem
but it cannot be said that they have
made much progress. Professor John
Milne says that he and his assistants
