We confess that the task Of deciding
between Hon. John j. Ingalls, and Hon.
John L. Sullivan as historians or the
forthcoming prize-hght quite appalls US.
OF course, under ordinary literary cir
cumstances, there would be no occasion
for a moments doubt. Mr.. Sullivan's
style IS vigorous enough, TO be sure,
but II is somewhat crude. In fact, It
belongs rather 10 the stone age than TO
the fn-de-siecle. John is not familiar
with the opalescent empyrean. He knows
not the iridescent dream. He reminds
one OF the hairy monsters that overran
the Roman empire under Attha and
Alaric. His vocabulary Is simple and
contracted But may II not be that this
Scared warrior viii be able % chant
the rude music OF the bin and bang. the
left hook, and the punch. with some
thing like inspiration, after all? Is II
not possible that in this particular do
main Of chronicle, he may prove no
mean rival Of the mellihuous and
polished bard who now attunes his Tyre
to an unfamiliar theme2
Verify. It seems to Va that judgment
must be withheld. Even In a literary
contest between Hon. John ]. ingalls,
and Hon. John L. Sullivan, we hesitate.

Justice TO Baby-CnrrInges.
atlanta Constitution.


A few days ago, when the Iowa Legis-
lature was considering q bill TO compel
railroads 10 carry bicycles as ordinary
baggage. without extra charge, mem-
Der offered an amendment including
baby-carrlages. He supported his pro-
position In a strong speech, IN which
no stated that his mOther-in-law. who
resides In the country. made trip TO
town recently, taking her baby with
her. She also took the baby's carriage,
and the "soulless corporation" charged
her % cents freight on that article. An
Iowa paper says that from this gross
and inexcusable extortion, in the name
of his oppressed mother-in-law, the MEM
Der cried for relief"
The amendment OF the legislator with
q nother-in-law was perfectly proper. IL
bicycles are to be carried free by rail-
roads, baby-carriages should have the
same privilege
