DUBUs' DRIVE,
The Famous Escape OF Canal belts
After His Voyage in a Balloon.

The Famous Escape of Gambetta
After His Voyage In a Balloon.
From the Savannah News.
NJ. Dubus. who was Marie of Epeneuse,
Disc, in 1870. has Just died at Cieremont,
aged seventy-two. Who was Dubus? Out
side of our small and respected French COL
ony here. we may safely say that few of
US know. And yet his name is bound to be
recorded in history and to remain there
until the records of the Terrible Year are
lost and forgotten. He was the man who
saved Gambetta from falling into the hands
of the Prussians during the Franco-Lierma an
war.
The story Is simple enough, but its very
simplicity serves to teach sound citizens
of every country the priceless value of pa
triotism. On the Sth Of October. 1870. tax

BETA, accompanied by Spuller. left Paris
in q balloon. intending to reach Tours.
After sailing in the air at comparatively
slow rate the balloon drifted toward the
north. The PruSSianS noticed it, gave
chase. and fired at 1t furiously. 1t was hit
several times. but the holes made in 1t by
the bullets caused only a slight escape OF
gas. After some little time. however. the
leaks began to tell and the balloon began
to descend slowly. The famous travellers
distinctly heard the hoarse cheers Of the
enemy. who imagined that their long chase
was coming to an end. and THAI they were
capture. But just then all the remaining
sand bags. together with everything that
could be dispensed with in the car. were
thrown out. and once more the. air ship
pointed toward the clouds.
The fusillade became more furious. but
the bullets were harmless. A slight in
crease in the wind also favored the fugi-
tives. The enemy was left behind, but was
still in hot pursuit. The balloon. becom-
ing weaker and weaker in buOyahcy, ut
last began TO descend gradually.
1t landed in the woods of Favieres eleven
kilometers from Cleremont. The Prussians
were coming ON rapidly. Thu Marie Of
Cleremont, NJ. Dubus. who watched the
balloon and saw the danger of the fugi-
tves. hitched up his two strongest and fast
est horses to a light wagon, and a few mo-
ments after their landing he was driving
them at full speed on the road to Montdid-
Ter. In that drive he beat the record and
brought Gambetta and Spuller into the lit
tie town In safety. OF course, the Prussians
found the balloon, but no trace OF the men
who were In the car.
Such IS the simple story OF Dubus' drive.
for which he received the cross OF the
Legion OF Honor and an appointment to a
JudSeShip In the canton Of Mouy. Four
years ago monument was erected to Gam
beta near the spot where his balloon de-
seconded. and the tree in which the air shin
got fastened was named "Gambetta's oak -

Economic Effects Of Tipping.
from GuntOn's Magazine,

The BARRIERS International Union OF
America has taken on the true American
spirit. which is the spirit Of personal free.
dom and dignity-the spirit Of working for
wages instead Of fawning for favors The
BARRIERS of New York city appear to be op-
posed to Mr.. Van Fleet. They evidently
think that. being in addition to their wages
these tips are SO much net gam to them
and hence. to refuse tips would be per-
manenuy to lessen their income. This, OF
course, is the view entertained by all Who
consent to work under the tipping prac-
tice. But 1t is mistaken notion. There
Is no class whose general income is in
creased by tips. The income Is made pre-
cartons and huctuating, depending upon
the Whims or customers and degree Of ser
Witty OF the laborer. But its permanent
effect Is not to enlarge the income but
rather to lessen the man. Tipping, as q
practice Is Extensively un-American and
not merely because 1t did not arise In
America, but because it is contrary to the
whole spirit and genius of American life
and institutions. 1t Is a system Of paying
always injurious, both to those who give
ard to those who receive; It injurea those
who give, in tending to create the aystere
sentiment that they are giving something
under personal obligations; 1t Is degrading
to the recipient, because Il Is Q voluntary
gift, for which he can put in no economic
claim, and consequently must pay for In
personal gratitude or obligation, which al
ways means the surrender OF personality
1t fs' specially offensive in this country. be-
cause 1t rests on no recognized prirripIs
of equity or payment OF eQuivaleEtA
Tps are uneconomic. because they make
the laborers' income precarlous and acct
dental. without making It larger or bring
ing any other corresponding benefits The
truth Is, aud 1t Is gradually coming to be
recognized. that the iaborers gain absolute
ly nothing by tips; what they gain in tbs
they lose In wages. All the menialism ex-
ercfsed to obtain tips. and the inconreni-
ence resulting from the uncertainty and un-
evenness of the amount Of income Is 40
rus.ci1 disadvantage. due to the tipping sys.
tesa, for which the laborers receive no
equivalent.
