The conviction and punishment
OF Oscar Wilde for the crimes
against decency which prompted
the posting of that libel by the
Marquis of Queensbury, il these
are brought home against him, will
have tendency to open the eyes
of the British public to the true in
wardness of some of the aesthetic
ism, run to seed, of which the &C.
cused has been the great exponent.
II the charges are dismissed, then
it will be in order for the Marquis
to justify his course before the peo-
pie of London. There Is unfortu-
nately too much reason to conclude
that there is serious ground for the
accusations.

Studying the American Girl.

The great liners that ply the
ocean in summer voyages, give one
an unlimited opportunity to study
the American girl away from home,
writes Mrs Burton Harrison in an
article entitled The Girl on Her
Travels" in the April Ladies
Home Journal. Either she is going
out, eager with a hundred schemes
for travel, or coming back with a
budget of new experiences and new
clothes. The lazy people who sit
in their deck chairs most of the
way over, and watch the brisk ones
in their eternal rounds of walking,
have her continually before their
eyes. And as there are no con
dition of lite wherein character in
little things is more freely display
ed than on shipboard, during that
week or more of suspended ANNA
ton called voyage, the lookers-on
are apt to criticise or comment free.
ly on what they see. Therefore,
it is we'll for girl to remember
that study of her is made thus
on ship board may be scattered afar,
whenever in the future her name
comes up for mention. In all in
nocence she may do needless things
that will be misinterpreted, and
among these are such as too fire.

The fruit belt OF Texas promises
more abundant crops of luscious
fruit than any season for years. II
only the frost holds off there is
scarcely a doubt that the crops of
small and orchard fruits will be
unprecedented. 1t is time that the
fates smiled kindly on this great
state. For several successive years
expectation has been cut off and
promise should now eliminate in
certainty.

That Japan will ask for her in
demnity from China in gold in
stead of silver is quite probable,
but that will not by any means
settle the Japanese currency ques-
tion on the basis Of gold instead Of
silver. 1t is to the interest OF Japan
to maintain the silver basis as all
of her domestic debts are payable
in that coin and to put her cur
rency on gold basis is to depre-
ciate her own money and she is not
likely to do that. The monometal-
lists are making all out of the east
ern situation possible, but it is not
likely that the settlement OF the in
demnity question in favor of either
silver or gold is going to change
the face of the whole commmer-
cial world. Silver, like corn and
cattle, seems to have touched bot
tom naturally,and as naturally will
advance until the real value is re-
stored.

Japan learns lessons OF CONNER
cial wisdom as we'll of military
efficiency from the more enlight-
ened Europeans. The indemnity
exacted from France by Germany
has been noted by the astute Japs
and .their demands upon China
have been largely nodded accord
ingly. That $3.50, 100000 indemni-
ty will put Japan's finances upon
their feet and face her towards
matters of internal improvement
as well as providing for her de-
fences for the future. Japan is lit
orally in the swim and this indem-
nifty will aid her in providing her,

SATURDAY, APRIL 6, 1895

Complaint is made to the Legis-
lature of North Carolina that the
railroads there are putting boys
under eighteen years Of age in such
responsible positions that no end
OF accidents are the result. The
orders for the moving of trains are
in their hands and this fact is cited
as the occasion of the numerous
accidents happening there. The
Legislature is asked to prevent per-
sons of that age being placed in
control of train movements, as the
only way of improving the railroad
service.

The demand that is coming into
increased prominence for horse
and mule meat is bound to increase
the price Of stock of this kind in a
sh ort time. There is nothing in
the situation to discourage the
horse breeder. The old stocks of
horses and mules, thrown which
were upon the market as the horse
car lines we're displaced by electric
motors, are very largely exhausted
now and the supplies Of the breed
ing farms will come into requisi-
ton. Then there is growing year
by year a demand for horse and
m ule meat, particularly in the old
world markets, where such sup
plies are cheaper food than the
flesh of beeves or mutton, the old
worn out animals being fatted and
converted into food when no longer
available as work horses. This de-
mand will naturally result in
withdrawing many animals from
the streets as soon as their useful
ness as beasts of burden is i'm
paired, thereby necessitating the
supplying Of the ranks from the
farms. Horses are now below their
real value and it is in the nature of
things that prices must advance.
The man who is raising horses can
keep at his work improving his
stock in the assurance that good
horses will not be be as cheap as
they are now for years to come.

The reported demise of Queen
Victoria has led to many remarks,
to the effect that having passed
her four score years it is in the ma
ture Of things that she should not
long enjoy local habitation and
a name on this side the great be-
yond. The fact is that Queen Vic
toria is five years short of her four
score, and will be seventy-six on
her approaching birthday. She
commenced to reign at so early a
period in her life and consequently
has been so long a time before the
world as a sovereign that the i'm.

William Brown was resident Of New

leaving him alone except for three sisters
and his distant relative Jennie. He was
apparently in INDECENT circumstances and
was coldly received by the sisters. Jennie
however, pitied the old mans forlorn sit

as comfortable as possible for him. The
sisters smiled, but did not object, and
when at last the old gentleman died little
interest was shown In the event
Aftor the funeral, however, an attorney
announced that Mr. Brown had left a
will. This caused a sensation, as his rela-
tivcs supposed he had nothing TO leave.
None was more astonished than Miss Jen-
ME and her surprise was overwhelming
when it was announced that she was tho
sole heir TO $40, 600, which Brown had nc
oumulatod without letting any one know
