BOSSISM-AN OMISSION.

AS the Richmond Dispatch
says, a number of the newspapers
Of this fair land Of ours r
placed in the disagreeable posi-
ton of having to praise Mr.
Hanna, or else keep silent about
him, while they preach against
"bosslsm."
The embarrassment of these
able journals shows through the
thin veil Of non-partisanry that
they wear. Truly theirs is an
unenviable job.
Of all the bosses Mr.. Hanna is
the biggest and the brassiest.
Mr.. Croker is mot a circum-
stance" to him, for the latter has
often had to consult his party as
s~ociates, and once OR oftener dur
ing the late campaign his opin-
ions were overruled by Tam
many. Not sc with, Mark Hanna,
He has his own, sweet way.
True he is supposed to represent
the President, but it is more
likely that IN many matters the
President represents him. Be
that as it may land it is too small
a dispute about), our country has
never known another such
political boss as Mr.. Hanna.
And, therefore, references to
.sbosses" and "bossism" without
the mention of this distinguished
Ohioan's name, are comparable
only to tie play of Hamlet with
the melancholy Dane omitted.
Yes; we insist that it is not fair
to overlook Mr.. Hanna's standing
as a boss. Why should so much
painstaking prominence be given
to Boss German and Boss Croker.
while Boss Hanna is forgotten or
ignored?
Though Mr.. Hanna has no
great claims upon the good
offices of the Dispatch. we wish
to see justice done him. And so
We think it is but right TO sug-
gest that in the future he shall
have the credit that is his due,
and that his name should lead all
the rest.

BARBER-SHoP LITERATURE.

College Professor Complains of the
Sporty style OF Newspaper.
why is it," asked a mild-mannered
college professor of a friend by whose
side he sat waiting for his turn in a
barber-shop-"why is 1t that barber
shops, of every grade and in every To-
cality, always provide for the delecta-
ton of their patrons the most lurid OF
sporty publications? i don't look
like a sport, do T." And the friend
/: looked him over, and with a droop Of
the corners of his mouth and an eleva-
ton of his eyebrows agreed that he
didn't. Yet" continued the professor,
whenever | sit down in a BARRIERS
chair the barber Immediately thrusts
into my hands a sheet of pink pru-
~rience, or some less highly colored but
more openly indecent illustrated abom-
nation. Some few hotel barber-shops
have a stray copy of a daily newspaper
lying around, but | have yet to find a
barber-shop where sporty papers are
not the chief literary entertainment
provided for patrons with which to be-
guile the tedious waits for a chance at
the chair. Is there any reason for it,
or is it just a trade custom for BARRIERS
TO subscribe for such publications
when they open their business, just as
they order soap and shaving papers?
Is it that all the thousands of mild
hammered, everyday citizens who are
not sports shave themselves, and
there is therefore no need of catering TO
the literary taste of the casual Gus
toner of that kind? But if, as | imag-
inc is the case, the BARRIERS customers
are men of all classes and %calibers,
why don't the BARRIERS provide some
thing to balance the spectacular effect,
at least, of the sporty papers that
stare at one from every chair? A copy
of some good monthly magazine would
not cost as much as a sporting weekly,
for instance, and would be really 4
treat for dozens of customers, where
the s~uperfluity of pictorial abomina-
ions are really offensive. But l didn't
intend to suggest how a barber should
run his business. | only started to
voice my wonder as to just why barber
shops and lurid sporty papers should
always have to be associated together
in ones impressions. Can you think
OF n without thinking Of the other? ?"

New York, Sept. 1S.-A special from
Mexico City TO the Telegram says:
Arroyo. who assaulted President
Diaz. has been Iynchcd by a mob of
common people. About twenty of the
lyncherS were arrested. The mob had
apparently no organization. but il was
directed in some mysterious way.
They broke into Jail by forcing the
doors with huge timberS handled by Il
hundred men. They ovcrpowcrcd the
guards and surrounded them while Il
detail of men ran down the corridor
and dragged out the trembling Arroyo.
Crowds thrOng the streets cheering
for Diaz and the republic.
At | O'Clock in the morning IL num-
Der of men forced their way into the
municipal palace. aScended the stair
way, Overcamc the guards. and made
their way to the office of the inspector
general Of police. where they killed
.Arnulfo Arroyo.
When the police entered the room
they found the body of the dead man
lying in the middle of the floor. 1t
was literally riddled and hacked with
knife Stabs. At his side were found
q doOrlar and several knives and
other steel Instruments. An cXamina-
ton showed that the panes of Il win
dow We're broken. The men who were
captured would not say anything.

Tho Origian Of an Old Saving.

1t is a curious bit Of literary exercise
to take a common saying and trace it
back to its origin. Take the common
saying, for instance, "All that glitters
is not gold" 1t is found in current
literature everywhere and in a dozen
different forms. Dryden renders it, "All
as they say, that glitters is not gold"
Spenser says, Gold all is not that doth
golden seem;' Lydgate has the same
idea in the words, "All is not gold that
outward showeth bright" Chaucer ex-
presses it in somewhat different phras-
eology; Middleton has it, "All is not
gold that glisteneth," and Shakespeare
says, "All that glistens is not gold" Go
a little further back and the same cx-
preston is found in the monkish col
lection of proverbs, and there is no
doubt IL a classical scholar were to set
to work with the determination to hunt
the proverb down, no matter how long
1t took, he would find it in Latin, Greek
aid most other ancient and dead lam
guages. 1t is a natural outgrowth of
sarcasm as applied to fictitious show
and is no doubt as old as the science
Of metal working.
