Iery-Vfctfm May Recover.
Frederick w. Torch, seventeen years old,
of No. 2O6 Bloomfield street, Hoboken, shot
and dangerously wounded Charles Geller,
eighteen years old, at Gus Shooting Gal
lery," No. 207 Washington street, Hoboken,
last evening. Both boys agree that the
shooting was accidental. Torch was exam
lining his rifle, which was of twenty-five
calibre, and unlntentionally aimed it at his
friend. The rifle was discharged, neither
knows exactly how, and the ball entered
Geller's stomach, passing through to his
back. The ball could be seen from the ex
terror. DIR. Pindar had the boy removed to
st. Mary's Hospital and the bullet removed;
Torch was arrested and held. Geller begged
for his friends release, persisting it was an
accident. Geller, it is thought, will recover.

MIN, when ne knows that such cheers, if
given, would be so many lies; that the
manifestation would be grim hollowness,
the very acme of hypocrisy; pretense
Win the voice that the heart and head
belled. One likes to respect even his en-
emy for courage; there is no glory in
hghting coward. Emperor William is
really more honored by the silence of the
socialists in his presence than he could
be by their cheers inspired by rule or
lear. Just what the Kaiser meant when
he said to the officers of his staff the other
day, just before the cheering incident,
There are dark days before US: / expect
you all to stand heroically by me-" is not
difficult to understand il the light of the
scene that was soon after enacted in the
Reichstag. He clearly meant that he an
ticipates what to him appears the neces-
sity Of asserting imperial power against
not only the socialists but all who fail to
do his bidding regarding them. It was
he who ordered the public prosecutor to
ask the Reichstag to suspend the par
liamentary privilege insuring protection
to legislators. The house has refused,
and it may be taken for granted that
presently it will feel his displeasure.
There may then be such new alignments
in German politics that dark days indeed
will be experienced.

BOWEN, the pugilist, was killed in the
prize ring at New Orleans on Saturday
In consequence the Dempsey-Ryan fight
has been declared "off," and the pro-
moters Of prize-fghting gloomily declare
that the days of the prize ring are over in
New Orleans. Bowen has done the pub
lie good service by his death. 1t has gall
vanized municipal authority into activ-
ity. and the Mayor of New Orleans has
now the courage to say that he will per-
nit no more ''pug mills' to be set up in
the Crescent City. We very much fear
that John L. Sullivan is right when he
says that the horror of the Bowen Incl
dent will paralyze the slogging business
for time, but that in due course the
public now all Indignation, will forget
the shock and the battles of the ring will
be resumed. It is the American way; we
experience nervous shocks which quicken
our morals wonderfully for time, but
we relapse into our good-natured toler-
ance of evil things and notification of
the laws with an ease that is at once the
surprise and the amusement of foreign
critics of our civilization.

More Money Expended by the Popu-
lists Than by the Democrats.
Any one who may have imagined that
the Populists conducted their recent
county campaign on "chin music'' alone
was badly fooled. Although the pure
leaders of the new party denounced "the
two old parties" for running their cam
paigns on Doodle basis, it appears-from
the sworn statements fiIed-that the Cen
tral Committee OF the Peoples Party was
quite free IN its expenditures
The affidavit filed for record on Satur-
day shows that the committee received
S9lS, and expended every bean of it..
Even the Democrats were more modest
in this respect than the poor mems
party" for their committee swears it re-
ceived only SS43, and did not squander it
all on 1orlOrn hope. The committees
affidavit shows balance unexpended of
s. l4. Just how that odd four cents got
in is not explained, but there is nothing
like being accurate about such things.
and the figures must stand
In the next cam paigu it will be in order
for the orators OF ''the two ola parties to
attack the Populists on their record for
the too free use OF money in politics. The
whirlglg of time often brings about queer
results.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

The Los Angeles Times has just issued
an illustrated book, describing Los An
geles and its environs, under the title
1.-THE Land Where the Sun Goes Down."
The work is historical, descriptive,
commercial, biographical and statis-
tical, and is one of the most elaborate of
its kind ever issued in this State. 1t is
evident that no labor or expense has been
spared to make it perfect gem. The
illustrations are up to the best by the
latest processes and present Los Angeles
in all it's wonderful beauty. 1t is work
of rare value and will be worth hundreds
of thousands of dollars to the southern
portion of the State.

AND so the Sultan of Turkey has with
drawn his invitation to the United States
to send a Commissioner to investigate
the Armenian outrages. Then the Porte
confesses that it fears investigation, by
even a friendly Power, of the acts of it's
brutal soldiery. Is that to be the inter-
probation Turkey will consent to? Or, is
the tightening of the English grip upon
the Oriental to be credited with this
change of front? England is not less hui

at SIC to $50 in two big volumes.
The pages are I63xII3 inches.
There are $50 pages. Lots of maps
and sketches, and one big colored
map 23x33 inches.
People wanted them, but couldn't
afford sI6 and kept asking for the
old "Harper's Weekly during the
War" After the pictures had been
put into this big, new, complete his
tory, the old Weekly plates were de-
Stroyed and now those files are scarce.
But the big history was so inter-
esting, and, being compiled from all
the official records, was so COM
plete and valuable that thousands
bought it.
Now it is all cut up and everybody
is getting it and being surprised.
1t is made into 26 big parts, 3a
big pages in each, and printed on
nice supercalendered paper-better
than ever belore-and has a hand
some buff cover with emblematic de.

The parts have sold as high as ST

each If you know how. The
pictures alone are worth more than
that, but the story and copies OF
many official documents and state
papers OF priceless historic value, all
go in with the pictures.
