There Is no lack of men with

the man without wheel is the excep-

found to occupy but small space in the

We often sneer at the man sswith a

Men with wheels have been the in

ages had remained sealed. 1t disclosed

from all classes of voters.
Judge Hall has had much experience

familiar with the laws of the
city. The son of one of the ablest

Judge Twohy, who is candidate to
succeed himself, has made an en-.

the right man in the right place
for the past four years. He is a
scholarly gentleman, a conservative

WEDDING SIMPLICITY,

In these days, when there is pro-
pensity for grand wedding display. il is
bit refreshing to find pair of Young
people and their respective families
having the good sense, good taste, to So,

relation without particle of tawdry
display or The similitude of sensation.
Not but the contracting parties and
their relatives have both means and
social position that could he utilized for
an event which might be almost national
in its character, were they disposed to
indulge in such an occasion.
The wedding III question is that of
Miss Harriet Blaine. daughter of the
late secretary of state, and TruXton
Beale. who comes of a distinguished
California family. The marriage is to
occur upon the last day of the present
month, at O'Clock in the Afternoon, in
the parlor of the Washington residence
of Mrs. Blaine, mother of the BRIDE to
be. No invitations have been issued.
Instead, few relatives and intimate
friends have been verbally asked to be
present. There will be neither brides
maids nor attendants. Rev. DIR. Mackey-
Smith, rector of st. Johns church, of
which Miss Blaine is a communicate.
will read the marriage service. A we..
ding breakfast will follow the cere-
mony, after which the bride and bride.
groom will journey to California as
ordinary travellers. to pass the summer
upon Mr.. Beale's ranch.
This is a picture of simplicity worthy
of notice and emulation. 1t is in such
contrast with that so often seen, that il
may be hoped that others will be in.
duced to follow an example that NAV
easily become the means of establishing
a new and better custom than that gen
orally regnant.
1t is reasonable to suppose that those
whose lives are thus mated will in after
years look back with great satisfaction
to the initial Of union founded upon
the corner stone of genuine happiness.
Society is full of the traditions of
wretcnedness generated from the
'swell' wedding. Honor be to those
who may have the heart and courage to
depart from custom that is more than
likely to have for it's chief guest the
doctrinaire of domestic discord.

by men OF less extended touch and op-

FRENCH SECRETS.

The order just issued by the premier
of France removing an Englishman
from the presidency of a French rail-
road naturally attracts the attention
of all other countries. Casimir-Perisr

zen of another country to occupy Dosi-
ton where secrets of The French gov
eminent might be exposed to him and
communicated in quarters where injury
to France would result.

lister. The authority for this exists in
a measure passed some sixty years ago.

enforced at all, nor was it ever vigil

THAT CIRCULAR.

The Issuance of a circular which was
designed TO mingle religious with a
political contest appears to have degen-
Grated into controversy in the Repub-
llcan camp which is growing both bitter
and amusing.
The design of the Republicans who
wrote and engineered the printing of
the circular was to have it charged I'D,
In the public mind, to the Democrats or
to the Democratic city committee.
The Democratic committee, in a dig.
niied and effective manner. disp1oyed
Its connection with the matter SO abso-
lutely that the Republican paper first
giving the circular publicity acknowl-
edged that it was the work of Repub-
lean, one who is high in the councils of
that party, and one who has been a
prominent speaker at Republican meet
ings during the campaign.
With this result the Democrats are
content.
But not so the Republicans. The
Dispatch last night devoted two or three
columns to explaining what members of
the Republican party were present
when the issuance Of the circular was
considered and how it came to be given
to the public.
The explanation shows that after the
circular had been cOnsid cred by the
city committee it was sent by them,
through Harris Richardson, to the
Pioneer Press. and was duly printed.
Al! of this is very immaterial matter
OF detail. 1t is merely little family
disturbance among the Republicans as
to who among them was responsible for
the trick. The fact that the Democratic
city committee has some indisputable
evidence as to the responsibility is en-
larged upon by the Dispatch.
Did it ever occur to our sprightlv lit
tie evening contemporary that the DEM
ocrats have not been making any accu-
sations in the matter or publishing any
affidavits which it (the Dispatch) seems
to be anxious to. refute with counter
affidavits?
The Democrats simply relieved them.
selves of the odium which was attempt
ed to be cast upon them, and can now
enjoy the Republican squabble as to
who among themselves were partici-
pants in the fraud.

II,

No region in the world possesses as
many attractions as summer resort
as the lake district of Minnesota. and
no city in all the state can lay claim to
more advantages than st. Paul as a con-
venient redezvous and starting point
for that great pleasure resort. There
are within radius of few miles of this
city a dozen or more beautiful sheets of
water, fed by everlasting springs,
Astounding in the choicest varieties of
game, fish and waterfowl, that are un.
surpassed for beauty even by the famed
lakes of Switzerland. 1t is true. there
is no mountain scenery in their i'm.
mediate vicinity. vet the prospect is
pleasing and satisfying to the eye.
There are no medieval traditions associ-
ated with our lakes, but there are In.
dian legands rendered immortal by
Longfellow and other masters of verse.
And there is, besides, freshness and
freedom from conventionality in these
places that is refreshing and invigorat-
ing to the tired denizens of the great.
overheated cities who seek brief
seasons rest from the cares and per-
plexities of commercial life hereaway.
Fortunately. the attractions of Mime

world; unfortunately, they are not
known as widely as they should be. Our
people have not been as enterprising as
they ought to have been. They have been
content to let the superb climate, the

themselves. Year by year the visitors

siSAN FRANCISCO. April 2s.-The
steamer Oceanic arrived today from the
Orient, bringing advices of a great fire in
Shanghai, April 8. in which 500 houses,
covering an area several hundred
yards wide by half a mile long,
were destroyed. So far as known no
lives were lost. The fire broke out
Stnkado0 between the water reservoir
and the river at 1880 p. m. A strong
wind was blowing and the flames spread
with such rapidity that the firemen were
helpless, Notwithstanding iunumerabIe
engines were brought into requisition.
At one time it looked as If the
French concession must go, but hap
PLY such calamity was averted. The
French .fremen, however, went to the
assistance of the Chinese, and gave
great assistance in subduing the flames.
The heat was very great. The fire had
not been stopped at last accounts, April
4. but was under control. No state
ment of loss is obtainable.
