the actual necessities OF these men. Some few

From the latter a nucleus was obtained, which
became q basis for the birth Of the Evening

METHODS DEVIOUS ENOUGH.

1t will be well for the advocates of postal
telegraphy to understand what they are fight
ing. Possibly they know already; but the
methods of the Western Union monopoly,
which arethe practice and perfection of lobby
ing in Congress, in state legislatures, and in
congressional districts for score OF years,
are almost beyond comprehension. They are
frequently beyond finding out. This monop-
oily not only familiarizes itself with every
motive and condition Of Senators and mem
bers. and of the friends OF Senators and mem-
bers. but it is prepared, with the expenditure
OF almost no end OF money if occasion should
require, to defeat in convention or at the
polls any man who dares really to oppose its
wishes.
All this has been understood but vaguely in
the past. The TIMES proposes that it shall
all be understood clearly, in detail, elabora-
tely. continuously, every day, if necessary.
1t proposes that the friends of postal tele-
graphy shall know who their friends are, if
if they have any; and who their enemies are
will also appear from time to time, and these
must take the consequences. Perhaps the
consequences will not be serious, for the
special interest, the monopoly requiring IA
vors at the hands OF Congress. knows how to
protect its friends as well as defeat its enc
mics. But at least the news shall be:printed
this time. 1t is a new kind of postal telegraph
fight, this one.

Why MARRIAGE HAPPENS
NOT TO BE IN FAVOR

Marriage does not at present enjoy the uni
versal favor which SO ancient and admirable
an institution merits. Every sensible young
fellow knows that the best capital to start life
with is discreet and amiable wife Young
men of intelligence and ambitious purpose
regard marriage as prudent investment as
well as u matter of romance. Young women,
however (according to the New York Press,
are not always actuated by such economic
principles in matrimony. 1t would seem that
they have a fixed and romantic standard
whereby they measure men and reject those
unfortunates who do not come up to its re-
quirements. This is system that is certain
to meet with disappointment. The ideal man
hood that is taught by the novelist and
preached by the playwright exists only in
fancy.
ave have not progressed" says the Press,
''in the rapid pace at which our sisters ad-
vanced within the last century. Since she
gained educational emancipation. woman has
developed with a celerity that was quite unex-
pected. She is no longer satisfied with
whiskers and gailantry in one who aspires to
her companionship. Men are doing their ut
most with what powers heaven has gwen
them; but, try as they may, it is often diff ,ut
TO keep the pace to which the new and lively
intelligence of women has set for them. 1t
is possibly for this reason that Young women
who do not perceive in matrimcny tnat
achievement OF ambition which was formerly
the object of feminine hopes have recently
adopted the habit OF beginning an independ-
ent career. They no longer wait patiently
and DULY for the arrival of a Sir Lancelot
who may never come. but regard marriage rs
an incident, not a necessity of life They
have discovered in tine various professions a
certain employment for the instincts of senti-
ment and perseverance that used to be less
successfully engaged in needle-work and do
nestle cares
In this new phase of affairs women can
wait for the coming suitors who are worthy
TO wear their favors. They are not compelled
to matrimony as a means OF getting a home.
but by their own industry and skill can estab-
lish the lares and penates for themselves The
reason why they do not get marie! is not
through any unusual lack Of rol- ance in
them. but because men do not always come
up 10 their requirements. In their recent de-
velopment. women have not surrendered rO-
nance. but they have gained common sense.
and in the great majority of cases they are
wisely determined TO marry no one who is
not a man as well as a gentleman"

BERING SEA DECISIONS
Made BY Tribunal of England and Anne
lea ard Third Politician.

Made BY 4 Tribunal of England and Amer.
ica and Third Politician.
There was no necessity FOR the adoption by
the British Columbia legislature yesterday of
the resolution praying the Queen to withhold
her consent to the seal legislation until some
arrangement had been made with the United
States for a settlement OF the claims of the
sealing vessels captured by the United States
prior to the modus vlvendi.
As n matter OF fact the United States gov
ernment has already agreed TO the creation of
"a commission that shall adjudicate these
claims. The subject cane Ue.ore the Paris
Tribunal al Arbitration rs the result of one of
the treaty articles. The stipulation was that
if the tribunal found that the United States
had no authority 10 exercise jurisdiction over
Gernc sea. and consequently had no right to
make seizures PRIOR 10 that time. the tribunal
slould investigate the circumstances OF each
seizure OF = British vessel.
Il was not 10 assess damages. nor even to
pass upon the question of the liability of the
United States 10 the owners OF the vessels, but
simply TO report what is known legally as
iild.nSs OF tact. Sach Us the location OF ves-
sci at the time of seizure relative to the three
mile limit, the value OF her cargo, and such
details.
This was done. and the result was the ag-
gregation Of claims against the United States
for about -. .001. 900. While the United States
government was not technically bound TO pay
these claims. it has been desirous from the
beginning 20 give effect to the spirit as well
as the letter Of the arbitration. and there
fore. lis already stated. it has agreed TO SUBJ
NIT these claims to the adjudication of a
special commission. which will be com
pused of representatives. OF the United States
aad Great Britain. with a third nation hold
ing the balance OF power in the decision.

He and Three Companions Were Rowing
and the Boat Capsized.
James Walter Parker was drowned at 4
O'Clock yesterday evening near the south end
of the Aqueduct bridge while out rowing
with Louis F. Clipper. F. G.. Foxwell, and
Roderick A. Mcdonald.
Early in the afternoon the four young men
hired boat from the boathouse Frank B.
Passeno. on Water street. in Georgetown. and
rowed quite distance up the river.
On their way back Parker offered
TO take the place OF Clipper. who was rowing,
and as the two went to change places the
boat. a narrow. doubie-seated outrigger. cap
sized, throwing all four men into the water.
Parker, being a good swimmer, immedi-
ately struck out for the shore. while the
other three held on TO the boat and called for
their companion 10 return.
He replied: I'm swimming for my life for
the shore" He was not seen aiterward, and
it il supposed he was seized with cramp.
Charles Simmons. & fisherman on the shore,
heard the calls for help and rescued the three
men on the boat, but Parker's body has not
yet been found.
Parker was clerk, 81 years of age, and
lived at No. 1903 Howard avenue. in Mt.

AS THE CROWDS COME OUT.

Barrett's Hamlet is at times the strongest
thing that he does. 1t is. as the critics have
said, a new Hamlet in certain scenes, although
his conception of the character is not different
in essentials from the others Of men who be-
lieve the princes insanity feigned. He shows
this belief more clearly in his action, and has
added business to aid in showing it. His
mocking OF Polonius is made more
effective than by others. He has his
concealed listeners to the conversation
between Hamlet and Ophelia show them
selves visibly to Hamlet and to the audience
These are more or less matters of opinion and
are not the acting of the man. No one should
dispute that at times he reaches very nearly a
perfect rendering of the lines 1t is studied
entirely restrained, and yet forcible, and it is
poetic.
But We may say all these things and yet
not pronounce him great Hamlet. do not
think he is that. His entire ability to restrain
himself at all times, and the lack OF any one
moment where he, as Hamlet. feels Hamlet's
temporary passions, prevent his action from
at any time rousinS strong enthusiasm.
In the minor matters of stage business, or
the matters which ought to be minor be-
lieve he makes grave mistakes. Hamlet. if it
is anything. is sufficient unto itself 1t is
sublime tragedy. Now Mr.. Barrett adds
touches which SAVIOR unpleasantly of melo-
drama. For instance III the last scene Hor-
ratio gives the dying prince his fathers pic
ture to look at. In the scene between the
prince and the queen the picture of the dead
king is round his neck. The other picture is
small cablnet-size picture, almost l had
said photograph. He compares the two
and throws the new kings likeness onto the
hoor and stamps on it. When he comes in
again in a few moments he stamps on it
again. Now. is that divine tragedy?

ON OUR HANDS: AN ELEPHANT.

Two brief items of news recall the present
situation of one of Hon. Coils P. Hunting
toms enterprises. He would much desire the
refunding of the debts of Pacific railroads.
He would make few millions by the opera
ton; consequently it is easy for him much TO
desire the refunding. Gen. Wade Hampton,
the Commissioner of Railroads. announces
that he is opposed to the foreclosure of the
lien on these roads; and it would seem that
thereis nothing for Congress to do butto do ex-
actly as Mr.. Huntington wishes, which is very
agreeable and pretty all around. One OF the
news items OF yesterday also brought to pub
lie notice the fact that Mr.. Huntington is will
ing TO give 500 to help the industrials, So
called, proceed East 1t is large sum for
Mr.. Huntington, but if his refunding bills go
through he can probably afford to pay it.

TIMES ADVERTISING PAYS.

Some papers are large, but there is such
thing as TOO much advertising, and sometimes
they nave been known to have too much.
Some circulations are large, but some large
circulations are not profitable for the adver-
tiser; the paper doesn't go TO the right places
it doesn't go to the home. The women spend
nine-tenths of our money, and they are the
persons, bless them, whom We ought to adves-
tise to always. no matter what our business,
whether the sale of shirt waists. or carpet
tacks, or newspapers. The TIMES has a
home circulation; the women are interested in
it. So are all the members of the family.
They pore it over from beginning to end.
They preserve it. Hence its value as an ad-
yertising medium. Ii brings results.

AT YOUR GATE.

My darling! My darlingl My darling!
Do you kn7w how want yoa Tonight,
The wind passes, moaning and snnrling,
Like some evil ghost on its fight;
On the wet street your lamps gleam shine
redly,
You are sitting alone-did you start
As spoke, Did you guess at this deadly
Chill pain in my heart?
Out here where the dull rain is falling,
just once-just a moment-l wait;
Did you hear the sad voice that was calling
Your name as paused by the gate'
1t was just mere breath-ah! know, dear,
Not even Loves ears could have heard;
But, oh! was hungering so, dear,
For one little word.
Do you think am ever without you,
Ever lose for an instance your face,
Or the spell that breathes always about you,
OF your subtle, ineffable grace?
Why, even tonight, put away, dear,
From the light of your eyes though l stand,
feel as linger and pray, dear.
The touch of your hand.
Once again with its wonted caressing
1t soothes my deep wound like balm;
Once again with an exquisite blessing
1t bushes my grief into calm;
And all the dear charm of your presence,
My darling, is with me again,
And takes, like some mystical essence,
The sting from my pain.
Ah me! for word that could move you
Like whisper of magical artl
love you! love you! love youI
There is no other word in a heart.
win your eyes that were loving still love me?
Will your heart, once so tender, forgive.
All, darlingl stoop down from above me
And tell me TO live

WHAT Is A GOVERNMENT OF THE PEG

When good people differ
as widely, as undoubtedly
LEADING WOMAN good people differ, concern
s-,.,,,-- ing woman suffrage, it is an
infallihle indication that pro-
found misunderstanding of the question pre-
walls somewhere; and as the question of
woman suffrage is question vitality affecting
the welfare of the whole people, it is the duty
of every male and female citizen of the United
States to give it dispassionate. unprejudiced
hearing. Truth is brought out only by hear
ing every argument that can be urged either
for or against any proposed public measure
Nothing so plainly indicates an ignorant,
crude mind in man or woman as refusal to
listen to new or unfamiliar ideas. That the
newspapers of this country are now willing to
publish arguments concerning woman suf-
irage is proof that the people of the United
States are now willing to read these argu-
ments. and that the people are at last willing
to read is one of the strongest possible marks
of growing intelligence in public opinion. 1t
is, therefore, with pleasure that comply
with the request Of the editor Of THE TIMES
TO say few words regarding the probable
effect upon the country OF the success of the
woman suffrage amendment in New York
state.
To understand the ultimate result Of the
ehfranchisement OF all the adult, sane, nom
criminal, non-pauper, tax-paying female cit
liens of New York, 1t is necessary, first. to
