I KEEP AN EYE ON LYMAN

The belief is rapidly gaining ground that
lyman, the alleged mo. IL is nothing more
nor less than a well-paid spy for the Eng
fish government. ireland, sad to say, has
furnished base material OF this sort before
and on more than one. occasion. In Ty-
mans case all the indications point TO his
guilt. His arrest was a sham following
upon the heels of the release of some OF
the Irish prisoners, in order that England
might have an excuse for the detention OF
the remainder and at the same time gain
some sympathy from the world for her
cruel, treatment OF the others.
When lyman was arrested on French soil
charged with dynamite conspiracy, why
was it that no effort was made for his
extradition? The English did not want
him. They had nothing against him. He
was one OF themselves On his return to
New York he talked like fool SO far as
Ireland's interests were concerned. His
every move is higaly suspicious. He uses
money plentifuily, and no one seems to
know the source from which it comes. But
If a closer scrutiny were made beneath the
surface it would probably be found that
British authorities were responsible for its
forthcoming. ..,e&
The Irish in this country should keep an
eye on lyman. They have been deceived
too often already by men who never could
give a satisfactory account OF themselves.

Grover Cleveland has removed the post
master at Springfield, ILL.,, on account Of
"pernicious activity" during the late cam
paign-the charge being that he advo~
Gated free silver, which was contrary to
the interests of the pocket book of thu
stuffed prophet. There is not a better
Democrat in Illinois that Redick Ridgely,
the postmaster in question, and he advo-
Gated silver against his, own personal In
terests and those of his brothers, who are
both in the banking business. Cleveland
is for the gold standard because the
money which he made in Wall street, by
selling out the peoples interests, is all
invested In such way as to bring him
in a. fixed income. He was a poor man
when elected governor of New York, to-
day he is worth 1000 900. Truly, tips by
Wall street bankers are worth something.

The latest charge against Bryan is that
he was at one time an actor. Up to this
time no one had charged him with such a
grave offense. It has been said he made
application to a friend Of his at one time
for position as theatrical agent, and per
haps by some such a position is looked
upon as part Of the histrionic profession.
He didn't get the job But Nathaniel F.
Banks of Massachusetts, was an actor,
and. yet he was governor of that state,
speaker OF the house of representatives at
Washington, and was talked of strongly
at one time as fitting material for presi-
dent. Was not the late ex-Speaker Crisp
an actor ia his younger days? and even
Charles Dickens did not look with dis
dain.s upon the sock and bushin. although
not professional. The allegation, grave
as 1t is, will no doubt be outlived by Mr.
Bryan. e.

Elsewhere will be found some comments
upon the case of Mrs. Castle, the klepto-
maniac, and since the matter has been
in type the news comes from London that
on the morning Mrs. Castle received her
sentence Of three months, without hard
labor and with excellent prospects. Of par.
don, seamstress and governess were SEN
fenced in the same court to nine and six
months hard labor for stealing a fur
necktie. There is no hope for them.
They must serve at hard labor. Is it, any
wonder the law is so often laughed at
when It is not openly defied when such
practices are dealt in in the name Of
justice?

JUST A THIEF.

When q poor woman steals a loaf of
bread to keep life in her own body or in
that of a starving child the act is called
stealing, and she is sent to prison; when
a rich woman steals something she does
not want it is called kleptomania and She
lis allowed to 90 her way unmolested. In
the first case the woman abhors the act
in her heart but is compelled by her pow
erty to do it, in the second case the Wo-
man delights IN doing wrong because she
was born thief. s6fa ss 5F & !. b. zG

was thought advisable to plead guilty and
she did so. receiving q three months SEN
