The cast OF characters included some OF
the bestl9cal musical talent. The princi-

essayed by Mr. F. w. Cooley, and he took
the part with a familiarity and ease
which showed his thorough acquaintance
with the requirements of the character.
Mr.. Baker was Ko 10. and did more

Oh the ladies, the honors we're events di

added much to her perfect rendition of
the part, and the latter as Katishs in

ELECTION BY THE PEOPLE.

The fact that a Senator has been
elected with views contrary to those
of a large majority of the people is a
strong argument in favor of the
election of Senators by the direct
vote OF the people. This is a ques-
ton that has been much discussed in
recent years and the time may come
when the latter mode will prevail,
although the opposition of the Sena-
tors themselves may prove stumb-
ling block that cannot be overcome.
We see that Representative Tucker,
of Virginia, has recently contributed
an article upon the subject to the
New York Herald, in which he pre-
sents strong arguments in favor of
election by the people. He argues
that the United States Senator is re-
sponsible in small degree either to
the people, who do not elect him, or
to the Legislature by which he is
chosen, because the Legislature ex
pires long before the Senator's term
ends, and thus the political body
that possessed the power to hold him
to accountability has passed away
before he appears for re election.
This is said to be one of the reasons
why most of the Senators prefer the
present mode of election. Another
reason advanced is that the legisla-
tive caucus can be much more easily
manipulated than the ballot box-as
is shown by comparison of the late
election in the State and the more
recent Senatorial contest. wherein
the expressions of the majority of
the people were thwarted by the
votes of a majority OF the Legislators.

For Young Married People.

Try to be satisfied to commence on
small scale.
Try to avoid the too common mis-
take of making an unwise Il fort to
'begin where the parents ended
Try not to look at richer homes
and covet their costly furniture
Try going a step further and visit
the homes of the suffering poor when
secret dissatisfaction is liable to
spring up.
Try buying all that is necessary to
work with skillfully, while adjoining
the house at first with simply what
will render it comfortable.
Try being perfectly independent
from the first and shun debt in all it's
forms.
Try to cultivate the moral courage
that will resist the arrogance of
fashion.
Try to co operate cbeerfully in
arranging the family expenses and
share equally in any necessary self
denials and economies.
Try to be cheerful in the family
circle, no matter how annoying may
be the business cares, and the house
keeping trials
Try to remember that it matters
but Ii tie what people think" pre-
vided you are true to yourselves, to
right and duty, and keep your ex-
penses within your means.

Fashion Dots,

White satin vests are on two thirds
of the silk costumes
The fur with which a chapeau is
trimmed should match the muff
carried with it.
Satin waists of last year are COW
cred fully by chiffon, held by bands OF
jeweled passementerie.
A narrow belt is strictly passe.
The ceinture should be a broad
girdle of velvet or satin.
Nothing ia so fashionable now as a
dress garniture as old lace, and
happy is she who possesses it.
The demand for black MORE
antique has not materializad as was
expected, but silk men pronounce it
as only lingering by the way for a
while.
There seems to be no garment or
other article of wearing apparel per
tanning to woman on which a minia-
ture may not be appropriately used
as garniture.

A SHAME.

Already the floors of our beautiful
new Courthouse are showing deface-
ment from the dirty habit of splitting
tobacco juice upon them. Steps
should be taken to prevent this as
far as possible and to apply such
remedies as placing sawdust upon
the courtroom floor, putting spit
toons in convenient places, and the
more frequent application of water
to the corridor floors, etc. A law
imposing a fine for defacing the
building in the manner complained
of might prove helpful. We have
never seen a building so greatly
marred within SO short time. 1t is
simply a shame and it is quite cyl
dent to casual observers, to say
nothing of those upon whom such
indecency amounts to a horror, that
something should be done to prevent
the dirty practice or to hide the very
ugly results thereof.
We trust the proper authorities
will take this matter in hand at once
and that improvement, at least, will
soon be observed.
