The rumors in yesterdays dis

That enterprise on the part of

the line of the administrators own

TOO MANY MEN IN AMERICA.

il is matter of sentiment; and that so

aspiration of all true lovers and happy

this subject, says the Boston Post, II IS
interesting TO regard II IN the cold

dividual tendencies Of the American
people toward matriInony. such
figures are furnished for the first time

SHORTHAND WON HIS TITLE.

phonetic shorthand, but illustrated the
fact that in England honors are a re,

Of lfe's work well done

without a VEGA ton. His phonetic short
hand was not pure invention, but no
undoubtedly did more TO extend and
popularize the art and TO bring it into
use than any other man Shorthand
comes down to us from the ancients.

EAsY-GoING KING RUMBERr.

King Humbert has the reputation OF
being the most constitutional of all the
constitutional monarchs Of Europe.
So well has he fulfilled this rule that,
according to the Baltimore Sun, he
may be said to have, save in enc point
only, completely extinguished his per-
sonality. That point is his determine
ton, at all costs, to keep up the army
and navy to their present state of eff
cheney and numbers. The various min
istries that have succeeded each other in
Italy with such rapidity have real
~ governed the state. This one
condition they had to aceept-the
maintenance OF the army as desired
by the king. His usual costume on
gala days and and when he shows.
himself to his subjeetsis the military
costume. He is the first soldier in Italy.
That he possesses great courage has
been made fully evident by his devotion
when, the cholera having broken out
with virulence in Naples, he visited the
sick and dying day after day in their
low and unhealthy dwellings. What
he may be as a legislator, thinker,
or wit, the public is not informed.
No Legislative measures of paramount
benefit or Importance are attributed TO
his initiative; no striking thought that
might enter the heart of the nation has
been pronounced by him or has
reached the people; even the faculty of
making a witty phrase, which, though
little in itself helm o. uttered bv ono in
high place acquires value and cur
rency which carries it far and
renders popular its originator, is
not quality which he pos
sesses. A generous, good-na-
tured, easy-going gentleman, who
desires to live and let hve-in fact,
person of rather neutral characters
tics-is the picture that people make
to themselves of King Humbert. He
is to the fore when q review is held.
He looks well when, arrayed in grand
military costume and riding noble
steed and surrounded by the excep-
tionally brilliant staff Of the Italian
army, he reviews the troops In their
march past him. Again, when seated
in one Of the gala carriages, accon-
panied by the tall, steei-clad royal
guards, he goes to open q new session
of parliament he Is figure well
worth noticing. So deeply has the
military spirit entered into the nation
that the king is never publicly seen
on state occasions in any other than
q military costume,

AN INTELLECTUAL METEOR.

The original champion Of 'sex-eguality'' and
woman suffrage in Kansas, so says the Wich-
tia EAGLE, was IAN intelligent meteor OF al

DID you READ IT?

And so poor old PETER flew off the
| handle. He was equal to a considerable
degree of self-containmenta and for good
good long while, but il was IN him, and
when subjected to an unexpected strain,
did as they all do, went to pieces. PET
| fer is not insane, but simply crank,
and as occasion offers viii do as cranks
must. Surrounded by men Of experience
| and of profound intellectually, and be-
ing continually braced up by an atmOs-
phere of level-headed conservatism, for
time he went slow and talked very
modestly, but Debs pulled his crank
trigger and he event off, - not realizing
that he was loaded. Nobody lodged
and nobody was hit. The wind blew
through his viskers: but it was his own
wind, and only wind. The convoiutiOns
of his upper works evolved no gray mat
ter on the occasion, but he had wheels,
and his mouth took on frightfully. The
green prairies of Kansas still roll away
in amending undulations from wooded
rivers 20 the setting sun which shines
eternally on, but with Lewelling IN the
saddle and Mrs. Lease clinging to
the crupper, PETER is no surprise He
stopped over and leaked all around The
edges but the bottom disclosed nothing
save the dreary buzz of wheels that go
round and round in the top of him, and
in the head gears Of Lease, Lewelling,
Waite and the rest. Poor PETER, he
would but he couldn't. Neither could
Prendergast. Neither will Waite or
Libbie Lease. Fate did them up when
it got them up. 1t is said that PETER
stood with his big eyes bullying out OF his
narrow forehead, his long chin hirsute
wildly waving as does a mares tail in
fly time, his back bumped like an en-
ragged tomcat on the back fence when
the moon hangs low, and just howled,
he did. Who wouldn't for five thousand
year, provided they were provided
with PETERS wheels and whiskers: And
to think that the state of Kansas used
to be represented in the United States
senate by men.

THERE IS a DIFFERENCE.

There were a knot of men standing
on q street corner, says the Washington
Post. One of them had just finished re-
lating some experiences of hunting
excursion which he had taken the day
previous down the river.
so you're sporting man, are you,
Jack? 1 never knew that before,
really" said one Of his companions.
'No, SIR" said the first speaker. ~
am not sporting man; 1 am sports
man, but l am neither sporting man
nor a sport"
Indeed And where, pray, is the
diference?''
THE difference? Why, great Scott.
man, there is as much distinction be-
tween . sportsman, and a sporting
man, AID sport as there is between
doctor, cannibal, and THEIR The
speaker glared at the others, but the
first man still looked blank.
Pray define it then" he said after a
pause.
ITO be sure. It's something that
everybody ought to know, but unfortu-
nately lots Of folks never take the
trouble to learn those things. A sports
man is man who loves sport in its
truest sense. At least SO consider it.
He is man who enjoys hunting, fish,
ing. camping out, and is commonly
fond Of other athletic amusenents in
the way Of boating, swimming, and
the ike. He Is, pardon my opinion,
apt to be a man OF gentlemanly in
stincts and brains. a sporting man is
an entirely different sort of fellow.
He is one who takes an interest in sports
OF different sorts, although he may not
engage in any Of them at all He prob
ably plays the races, drinks hard, takes
in all the prize fights, and spends most
of his evenings, when there is nothing
else on hand, playing cards and whoop-
ing things up. But sport is on still
lower scale. He is fellow who thinks
he's big potatoes when he's really moth
ing but runt. He need not know any
thing about sports or engage in them
either. His reputation will be won
chiefly by his loud dress, his hirtations
with the girls, his hanging around sa-
looms, and his general worthlessness.
No, sir; there are good many persons
who are proud to be called sporting
men or sports, but to call true sports
man by such a term is little short of an
insult"
