Execution OF Laws Count.

S. M. Owen, commenting on grain leg
islation, says in Farm, Stock and Home:
"No mere law can do any good; the
fa%ithiulness OF it's execution is the test
OF its merit; it is good OR bad; helpful OF
otherwise, according to the manner O,

saw where no generalcomplaint OF wheat
growers was heard was where there
was no nor law to govern the
selling and shipping OF wheat than OF

8 A curious plaque work is done at Cor
tint, in the Tyrol, of marvelously fine
silver thread and tiny pieces Of gold.
The men and women employed at it
work with strong magnifying glasses
and small pincers, with which they some
times fit into single tiny leaf no larger
than currant 100 pieces of metal. The
odd thing about it is that men working
in this way have more delicate manipu-
lation than women, which bears out the

tail. small ones for breadth of effect

OYsters on a Drunk.

~ do believe. said Bronson Evarts to a St
Louis Globe Democrat reporter, that whisky
will make anything drunk. The latest expert
ence that have had in that line was with an
oyster bed that / have down in Chesapeake
bay. have seen cats betrayed of their growth
by whisky and dogs kept small l have seen
laxative poll parrots bowled up until they fell
off their perch and lay squawking and ha-ha-ing
at the bottom OF their cage in most delrious
manner, hut never saw an oyster bowl up ex-
cept in restaurants, and t0en the oyster didn't
know it. Down in Maryland l resolved to see
what effect whisky would have on small bed
that had for my personal use.
II got some malt whisky one morning and
went down TO the bed. let in fresh water, and
then poured in a little WHISKY. The Whisky told
on those oysters in minute. II was too much
for their nervous system. Whenever you touch
an oyster 8 shell it closes up mighty quick and
tight. | saw one lolling partly open, and put
my finger down to touch it, 1t feebly closed up
and then opened again. l tried it several times
with the same effect. The oyster was not dead ;
it was simply too drunk to know that there was
anything dangerous in this world This condi-
ton lasted several hours, when the oysters
would regain their wisdom and close up right
at the slightest disturbance of the water
thought ut the time OF eating them that they
mad peculiarly delicious flavor, but maybe it
was because l was pre- JUDGED in their favor"

Chicago's Hospitality.

/ II affords the Chicago Tribune genuine
pleasure to be able TO contradict, upon au-
thority, the widespread report that visitors
to the worlds fair will be charged a fee
'every time they turn around" President
HiRginbotham, according TO the Tribune
has made a short, but complete, replyn to
the numerous falsehoods that have been cir
culated with regard TO Chicago's rapacity
and the probable worlds fair charges Re
duced to It's lowest terms, President Hig-
ginbotham's statement is TO the effect that,
in the generosity Of their hearts, the d.
rectors have provided seats for some thou.
sands Of people, and an abundance Of water
for them 20 drink. free, gratis and for
nothing
One admission fee, at the gate, entities
the visitor to sit down and drink water all
day, if he wishes TO. Or he may sit on the
free seat, MUNICH his free lunch, brought from
homo IN a handkerchief or tin pail and
gaze at the wonders OF the white city for
hours at time without its costing him an
extra cent. Indeed, the visitor is at liberty to
bring along a vial of syrup, and make
'sweetened water" with which TO wash
down his lunch. II he does not care to
spend his money for worlds fair lemonade,
the directors are not going to force him to
do it. They are going to treat him "white, "
and he may have all Of the water he wants.
Twelve thousand of him may drink at
once at the free fountains, and If. per
chance, there should be 1900
thirsty at once, President Higginbotham
will permit the extra thousand, without
money and without price-absolutely free
to extend themselves on all-fours on the
beautiful artificial beaches of the artificial
lakes in the grounds. and, with distended
neck and pursed lips, suck up just as much
Lake Michigan water as may be necessary.
Furthermore. there is at the fair some
thing like $50 acres, surveyors measure of
air. OF which the visitor may partake
freely, upon the payment Of his half dol
lar at the gates; nor is there any extra
charge for the sunshine, or the rain. or the
ozone, or the lake breeze. These things, it
must be borne in mind are entirely extra
from the privilege OF going through the ex-
position buildings and seeing the exhibits
ALL except some dozen or so Of the best feat
ures, the EsGuimaux village, the Colorado
cliff dwellers' abode, ETC.. which the
Chicagoese have established ab Midway
plsisance as a kind of side show to the big
tent. 1t takes extra money to see these
things. And extra money to procure any
thing except the articles on tho free list
already mentioned.
AT the same time, no candid person can
read the free list without acknowledging
the native hospitality of the Chicago board.

Abuse, Not Criticism.

The New York Advertiser, in an article
entitled Bad Appointments" says: "Mr.
/ Cleveland evinces malice in his turning out
of Office Of the especial friends OF Mr.
! Blaine and the sous Of Lincoln and Grant"
Could there be anything more unjust than
the foreRoingl Why should Mr.. Cleveland
retain in Office the friends OF the late MI
Blaine or the sons OF Lincoln and Grant,
The Advertiser doesn't offer any reason
but declares that Mr.. Cleveland was in
fiuenced By malice in not retaining them in
Office
Nobody is in position to say how many
of the especial friends Of Mr.. Blaine we're
in Office at the close OF Gen. Harrisons ad-
ministration. There may have been only
a dozen. or there may have been thou
sand. II an attempt had been made to find
out it is not at all improbable that more
than a thousand would have declared they
were Mr.. Blaine's dearest friends. Mr..
Cleveland would have had a lively time in
showing they were not. He has about as
much as he can do to find out who OF the
democratic applicants are the most worthy,
so that the Offices may be filed by the very
best men obtainable.
And why should the sons Of Lincoln and
Grant have been kept in office? Each Of
them has had about all the government
honors be is entitled to on the strength
Of his fathers services, and neither
of them has any particular merit of his
own. Both are very agreeable gentlemen,
but neither is indispensable to the govern
ment. From the standpoint of intellectual
ability, Mr.. Lincoln is hardly a second-rate
man, and Col. Grant would hardly be given
a place in the third-rate class. Unassisted
by the great regulations Of their fathers
they would never have been heard Of in
public life.
Mr.. Cleveland would have been guilty Of
folly if he had yielded to a sentiment ex-
pressed by a few republican papers and
asked MIR. Lincoln 20 retain the English
mission and Col. Grant to retain the mission
to Austria. He wanted good democrats In
these positions, and 30 do ths American
people. The verdict at tho polls last No
vembe9 was that democrats should take
charge of the government and be placed in
oil the great offices. Mr.. Cleveland is act
ing in accordance with that verdict and will
continue to do So
