THE GARNISHMENT LAW.

There are several differences between the present garnishment law and the bill in- troduced by Representative John and pub lished in the AGE-HERALD yesterday morning. The present law is that you can only garnish for house rent, bread and meat, and then only when you have waiver contract. Under the John law you can garnish under any contract, provided the party has waived his right of exemp- tiou, or the debt sued for IS for necessaries. The argument under the old law was that it destroyed the credit of the workingman and he was forced to trade at the commits saries. One good feature of the John bill is that the costs shall not exceed S2.50. One of the principal objections to the present law was that costs were excessive in cases where the amount involved was small. The John bill provides that no garnishment shall issue on any claim which is less than S5.
 As to whether the John bill, if it becomes a law, will apply to present debts, is an open question. It is held by some that tine John bill if passed would be simply reme. dial-that it amends the remedy. By others 1t is held that it would impair the obligation of contracts by changing the mode of collection.

IRON TRADE REVIEW.

CLEVELAND, O., Dec. 13.-The Iron Trade Review today says: further weak ness of iron and steel values has taken place within the week and in some markets the lowest prices of the year have been touched. This is true of Bossemer and of northern foundry irons except in the Chi cago market, where the marked concessions of some weeks past were recently with drawn. While November and December accumulation of iron has been looked for, with an attending fall in prices, actual transactions have discounted all allow ances. Bessemer pig has sold as low as S9 50 in the valley, the equivalent of S10. 10 at Pittsburg, whereas the lowest price Tn the period of lowest values preceding the coal strike was S10. 25 at Pittsburg. North in central western markets at 25 cents ton below that quotation of early spring, .35 at the fur mace being touched as against S9. 60. The prices named are extreme, and there have been many transactions on higher basis, while some producers refuse to consider current figures and are confident that reaction will come quickly when any con- siderable buying movement develops.
 The present situation is only significant of the eagerness of certain producers to get business at a time when demand ia sus- pended, with buyers running stock to the lowest point for the taking of the yearly balance. There is little in any quarter that goes to establish market drift beyond the present month. If present prices were to continue there are producers who would feel called ou to retire for the time being, and thus the corrective might come naturally. Among makers of Bessemer iron there is caution about entering into low priced contracts, begotten of the coke strike experience of May and June.
 There are some authorities who still see chances oi new strike as the winter wanes, and while Fl coke will be available after the first of the year the failure of the Connellsville operators 10 carry out an agreement only practically made to ad- vance the selling price increases the that a strike, whether 1t comes sooner or later, will only be averted by such an advance in coke as will permit of paying higher wages to the men. Thus the coke situation Is still the important factor in the outlook for Bessemer pig and soft steel. The effect Of the reduction in steel rails for 1895 cannot be measured as yet, though there are sev- eral inquiries in for large lots. Car and locomotive building is more active, and the prospects in these directions are much more encouraging.
 Ia the central west there is fair amount of business in plates and angles on ship building and bridge contracts. The demand for beamG and channels on architectural account is light, but there is good deal of figuring on work that is to come up next year. Indeed the chief encouragement in all departments of the iron and steel trades is derived from the expectation months of 1895. If present volume at the present prices were taken alone as the basis of prices, the opinion would be far from optimistic.

Temptation.

''I shall nevcr" says New York woTn- an actiyein philanthropic work, "earry my pocketbook in my hands in the street again. A recent experience has showed me its danger to others besides myself. I have been interested lately in n young man, typical growth of the tenements, and have been trying to encourage him to lead better life with, I hope, somo de- gree of success. A few days ago met him on the street and stopped to ask how he was prospering. In my hand at tho time l was holding my pocketbook, and from the moment that we met saw his eyes fastened on that with a wolnsh look that made mo tremble. 1 did not dare put it in my pocket lest he should discover my dis trust and yet I felt that it was cruel to stand there with it Haunted in the face of his desperation. The interview was most trying. I asked him few questions, to which he scarcely replied, so fascinated was he with tho sight of the purse, and as soon as I could with ease I bado him good by and walked on. As I did so he raised his eyes to mine with conscious hunted, yet bafed look, that told me as plainly as if he had said it that were not tho re- suit would have been different. When turned the corner and was out of his sight, l stopped weak and faint, to recover my self, andput that purse in my pocket with the VOW that it or any other in my hands should never again offer temptation to a fellow creature.

Don't Begrudge Praise.

Why is it that, even with the nearest and dearest, praise is so begrudged, while blame is so freely bestowedP In nine cases out of ten the former docs infinitely moro good and inoites to far greater exertion than the latter. Nevertheless as rule, the fondest parent, the kindcst teacher, the most faithful friend, often hesitates to praise, while seldom failing to censure when the occasion calls for it. There is ever the feeling latent that the recipient will be unduly elated by any appreciation bestowed, and parents and teachers some- times hesitate on that account to express unstinted commendation, while brothers and sisters and even friends often at heart really begrudge tho satisfaction and perhaps self complacenoy they might evoke by giving expression to the admiration they may honestly feel
 While flattery is ever profuse and easy to obtain, honest praise is a rare commod- ity, seldom given eYen when most deserved and grudgingly withheld when most need ed. How often child feels "there is no use trying" simply because his feeble efforts for the right obtain no recognition, while his faults arc constantly recapitulat- d.-Exchange

DIFFERENCE OF OPINION.

The Nashville American thinks the Car lisle plan will result in the free coinage of silver. It says:
 Accept the Carlisle plan and the uncondi- tional repeal of the 10 per cent tax on the issues of State banks will soon follow as a necessary consequence. Once allow the States to charter banks of issue and the free coinage of silver cannot very long be delayed, for the reason that the silver will be required to serve as basis for the circulation to be issued by the banks.
 Senator Stewart takes different view of the effect on silver if the Carlisle plan is adopted. A Washington correspondent writes to the St. Louis Republic as follows
 Senator Stewart, who if not the wisest is the most candid of the silver mine owners in Con- gress, claims that the Carlisle plan is con- spiracy of the banks and gold-bugs to do up silver.

SECOND OF THE SUITS

OF E. LESSER vs. UNITED STATES LIFE ".
 sURANcE COMPANY GAINED BY THE
 PLAINTIFF.
 Late yesterday afternoon the jury in. the case of E. Lesser vs. the United States Life Insurance company, tried in the city court, reported that they had found for the plaintiff and assessed the damages at S3165.
 Mir. Lesser's father was insured in the United States Life Insurance company, and the latter refused, 1t is alleged by plaintiff, to pay the amount of the policy at his death. Hence the action at law. A similar suit was tried in the same court last week and judgment for S5025 awarded the nlaintjff.

STREET CLEANING BY CONTRACT.

MT. John Burns has been very severe in his strictures concerning the streets of New York and Chicago. He says the larger cities of the old world, after trying the plan of letting their street cleaning and street making out by contract, have abandoned it, and have established permanent and non political board of works, with men trained to such work, just as the fire de- partment has trained men. The board of works owns all the necessary wagons, tools, etc., and goes at the matter sys- tematically and becomes more expert from year to year. Especially in street paving does this plan work well. In London this system is in force, and it works we'll and cheaply. It has resulted in the reno- vation of London, and in this work Mr. Burns has taken leading part. The ex- perience of our city shows that the con- tract system is most economical and ef- fectiVa.

WAS THE INTERMEDIATE MEETING OF
 THE FRANKLIN SOCIETY AT HOWARD.
 The intermediate meeting of the Franklin Literary society of Howard college last night in the college chapel was pleasant event, and the boys made creditable snc- cess of the entire affair.
 The chapel, which was beautifully dec- orated, was well filled, many going out from the city.
 The welcome address, by G. G Faulk, and the Reclamation, by J. G. Dobbins, were good and well applauded.
 The question under debate, "Resolved, That custom has more influence over mans actions than conscience,'' was hotly contested by both sides, strong argu- ments being presented by ali four of the speakers. The judges rendered their de1 cision in favor of the negative.
