relative TO the Gar being sent for two
hours. The lady journalist. however,
sent a telegram to Berlin asking TOR

the sum required. This message was an
arranged signal, and minated not only
the death of the Car, but also the exact
hour at which he expired.

A II ELGlAN IDEA.

The municipal authorities in Brussels
realize thst people often get married with
out knowing just what they ara about,
and so they have done what they can to
increase the knowledge of the newly-msr-
risd. They give them a marriage certi6
cate in the shape of an ornamental little
book neatly bound in morocco and gilt
edged. 1t contains, beside the marriage
certificate proper, q summary Of the Bel
sian laws relating to the married state. Q
mass of miscellaneous Information deemed
like to be useful to the newly married,
including minute directions for the
feeding and care of infants, and 9
page properly ruled for the entry of
births, space for twelve such entries being
considerably provided by the authorities.
This plan is aplessing one and might we'll
be initiated in this country, where, as in
Belgium, those who get married are not
always as knowing as they might be. OF
course the little book for use In this coun.
try wouldn't need to have space for the
entry of twelve births. It would probably
be more generally satisfactory If it con-
tanned full directions for avoiding the
necessity Of entering births. 1t would also
meet pretty generally felt want If 1t con-
tanned full directions how to proceed in
getting q divorce, securing alimony, etc.
It might also have q chapter or two on the
advantages of what has been called ICON
secutive polygamy." Such marriage Ger.
ti6cate would be useful in this country
and would tend to reduce to an exac,
science that which is at present very in
exact and very unscientifc.

PHOAIBlTlON IN IOWA

PROAlBlrlON IN IOWA.
It is announced that prohibition has
been failure in Iowa, at least politically.
lows haa had a prohibitory law since 1884.
The law was enacted after a constitutional
prehibitory amendment, adopted by the
people by large majority in 1882, had
been nullified on technical grounds by the
State supreme court. Now the Republicans
of both branches of the legislature have
finally carried through what is known as
the Martin mulct license bill and there
seems to be no doubt that the governor
will sign 1t. This bill provides for the as
sessment of special tax of $500 against
property wherein liquor is sold; and on the
petition of majority of the voters of
any city of 5000 or more inhabitants, or
65 per cent. of the voters of smaller
places, tie payment of this mulct tax
shall be bar to any prosecutions under
the prohibition law. If any such petition
be wanting the prohibitory law takes its
course.
This performance leaves Iowa with local
option and high Hcenee, and a resolution
has also been adopted submitting to popu-
lar vote constitutional amendment pro-
hibiting the manufacture and sails of
liquor In the State. So there will In time
be chance for the people of Iowa to ex-
press their opinion again n'.ooEcsrning pro-
hibition, and judging from the vote of
1891, in which this question figured, It
will be against 1t.

A CRYING NERD.

A matter which Is under discussion in
New York raises some interesting quee-
tione. The owner of building In Maiden
Lane has freakishly had it painted bright
orange. As the neighborhood is occupied
chiefly by jewellers they find their business
seriously injured, for the reflected light
makes the diamonds in their windows look
so yellow that 1t is impossible to distin-
guish their real quality. This apparently
impairs their value, for yellowish diamonds
are worth but a small fraction of the value
of a colorless etone.
OF course the man who thus painted his
building acted within his legal rights, but
In 30 doing he has injured others. So the
man who builds a house which is An of.
fense to the eye and An injury to the neigh
borhood In which 1t is built does . wrong
although he is within the law. There II
some regulation of building in. our citiel
locking to protection from fire. Why
shouldn't there be some regulation of build
ing looking to protection from bad taste ani
vulgarity in architecture In commenting
on the New York matter the Boston Herale
pertinently quotes Mr.. Howells' "Altrurisr
Traveller" in the March Cosmopolitan q
follows: "rhe individual liberty that suf
fers q man to build extensively to bis neigh
Dor or to the public at large is not liberty
but is barbsrous tyranny, which put
an end instantly to beauty and extin
guishes the common and persona
