Now that the tariff question is set

Government assured, the universal de-
mand, regardless Of party, should be:
LET the tariff alone. All tinkering

disastrous experience of the past four
years, we feel like adopting the order
of Gen. John y. Dix, who said to the
guard: "If any man attempts to haul

The Marietta club which has had a
more or less uncertain existance since
the breaking up of the Ohio-West Nir-
ginia League, has finally followed its
Parkersburg, Cambridge and Zanes-
vile antagonists and on Monday it
gave up the ghost. The utter lack of
enthusiasm aud resulting small attend
ance at the games is given as the rea-
son for its disbanding.
The financial affairs of the club are
in a chaotic state. The salaries of the
players are not paid up and there are
many bills outstanding. The total

badly cut and bruised, and internal in
iuries were feared. lie had bad heart,
and had not regained consciousness
when the ambulance reached the hos

carefully pushing back the lid of one
of the eyes, gazed earnestly at it.
Poor fellow, there's no hope for
him." he announced. Thepupil of his
eye is greatly diluted. and that's sure
sign where there is heart trouble"
A little later one of Smiths friends
called at the hospital and inquired about
him. The young physician repeated
what he had said before explaining
the method by which he arrived at his
conclusion
Which eye was it you looked at?''
queried the friend.
The right eye"
We'll, there's Il popularity about
Smiths right eye"
That so? What is it?" inquired the
young doctor, with scientific interest.

Amusa is Yankee. and he is so hon.

CITY AFFAIRS.
UNHEALTHY WATER.

The quality of our city water is be-
ing criticized daily. Last year we
feared there would not be enough ow-
ing to the dry weather and increased
demands on the water works, Ihls
wear the fear is that there will be too
much water; that is of the kind FUR
nished, thick with mud as it has been
The price of the water has not been re-
duced to correspond with the quality,
but full charge is made no matter what
kind of water is furnished. OF course
we all understand that it is inevitable,
also that it is the earnest wish OF the
Water Works Trustees to improve the
present plant as soon as possible by
adding a filter or otherwise doing
away with the muddy fluid now fur
nished.
The report recently filed shows that
they have put in year of hard work
perfecting the plant and extending the
mains to meet the demands caused by
the rapid growth of the city. Now,
the mud nuisance seems to be the most
pressing of all public questions. Peo-
pie say let the eXtentions stop, let
every other improvement for the time
being stand aside, until the water is
renderd wholesome and acceptable by
filtering or otherwise
What is the use of putting bath
rooms into houses at great expense
when they cannot be used for half Of
the year on account of the mud in the
water? What is the use of plum bing
for water at all when the water is use
less? Why, for several months it has
not been fit for anything, not even to
sprinkle lawns with on account OF the
large amount of sediment in the water.
While the city is looking ahead and
providing for failure needs in various
directions, why not prepare TO furnish
pure water. which is so essential not
only to the comfort, but also to the
health of the city. ). j. II.

NOVEL HOSPITALITY.
Rcw Il Wealthy Irislimnn Added TO
the sum of Human Enjoyment.


the sum of Human Enjoyment.
a man with an unusual idea of hos
pitality was Mr. Mathew, of Thorlas-
ton, Ireland, who lived in the earlier
years of the last century, says the San
Francisco Argonaut. Mr.. Mathews in
herited an annual income OF about Sl25,-
coo. For many years he lived abroad
in a very frugal manner in order TO ac-
cumulate an amount that would enable
him to indulge in form of hospitality
in his own country in harmony with the
plan he had devised. His house in Ire
land might be compared in size with a
modern hotel. Each of these he wanted
to visit him had suite of apartments
and ordered his meals at the hour that
best suited him. He could eat alone
or he could invite others to join him.
All the visitors hunted. shot, tished,
played billiards or cards at will, and all
brought their own horses. There was a
regular bar where drinks were served
without stint. Mr.. Mathews as host
completely effaced himself He min
gled with his visitors as one whose
stay was as definitely fixed as theirs.
In fact, he conducted his house as if
it were hotel, with the exception that
all was without charge. No servant
was allowed to accept tip. Violation
of this rule was followed by the instant
dismissal of the offender. This estab-
lishment, unlike other country houses
OF Ireland of the period, was conducted
with perfect order and without waste.
His hospitality was lavish. aud attract
ed to Mr.. Mathew all of the more ia
nous men of the time. The great sum
that he had put aside during his resi-
dence abroad enabled him to indulge
his hospitality instincts until he died.
