May this noble ship be the precursor of a splendid feet of American steamers which shall illuminate the revival of American commerce and carry the American flag on every Philadelphia Press.
 The launching of the American liner St. Louis at Philadelphia is a veritable histor- ical event and marks the beginning of n purpose not to leave steam service on the high seas British monopoly. ly.-Boston Transcript
 The magnificent merchantmen is a monument tu the genius and skill of Phil adelphia shipbuildcrs and an indubitable proof that as fine specimens of transatlan- tic steamships can be built in this country come from the shipyards of England.- Philadelphia Call.
 The national importance of the launch of this ship is testified to by the fact that the wife of the chief magistrate of the nitCd states performed the christening ceremony; that the chief magistrate of the republic and the members of his cabinet participated in the impressive ceremonies of the launch. h.-Philadelphia Ledger.

MASCULINE ADVANTAGES.

Thcrc are times when a girl sincerely and dcvoutly wishes that she were a man. Hero arc q few instances:
 When she realizes that she hasn't the courage to go to sleep without looking un- der the bed for n burglar.
 When shc tries to walk up stairs and finds that she is only mcandering up the frCnt of her new tailor made gown.
 When she loses n train. It would be such a comfort to indulge in an assort- ment of masculine explosive epithcts.
 When she goes into her room in the dark, and while fumbling around for matches sticks her fingers into 16 differ ent cold crCam jars
 When she has to put things that look like TattrapS in her sleeves to make the sleeves stick out. and when the rattraps dig rUSCatc sketches on her arms.
 When she thinks how she would get up in n street car and give n poor, tired out woman a seat, and then run for a doctor when thC pUor. tired out woman faintcd from sheer surprisc.-ChicagO Record.

WE have received a circular signed s,Stalwart Republican" which purports to be an expose of the Hartford Courants al- legged tr-achery to republican candidates at the recept election No reputable paper ought to uphold such dirty politics. Anonymous communications are only fit for the waste basket.
 No remedy for strikes has been su . gested that will wash. The right of em- ployers and employees to combine for the purpose of furthering their own interests by lawful means is conceded. The right of contract. by which one party buys and the other sells labor. is also undeniable.

 The veins about his temples stood out like throhbirg whipcords, and his eyes grew startled and apprehensive as the moments sped on.
 But let us pause moment. It will not take long.
 Let us pause to describe more care fully the plowman who stands thus alert and listening. Tuck Pickinpack was the offspring of long line of peo- pie. They had been his ancestors, but aside from that they had attracted little attention. He had descended from them
 For centuries the Pickinpacks had de- | seconded from their ancestors, and those who had married into the family had thus become related to them in that way.
 Tuck was an only child at one time, but as years went by n person with any knowledge of mathematics would notice that he had ceased to act in that capac- ity.
 For years the Pickinpacks had gone on amassing poverty and dividing it ur among their descendants, but Tuck, be-
