HIGHWAY WORK.

There has been lull in the highway
work during the past few months and this
class of city laborers are wondering when
they are to be put to work again. Provisions
have been made by the City Council for
numerous street improvements and 1t
seems as If this was the proper time to
carry out the work. Att the present time
a number of citizens who are employed in
the highway department are in idleness
and the City Council should realize the
fact that this is the proper time of the year
for getting the best results on outdoor
work. Now Is the time to advance a num-
of necessary and much needed improve
ments. 1t is poor policy to delay work OF
this nature which must be done, especially
at the expense of the laboring class OF the
city, who would be equally benefited with
the city by reasonable expenditure OF
the money available for hhigway work,
and other improvements contemplated.

The marriage will b the elimination
Of an early romance. Before the war the
couple knew each other and 1t was under
stood between them that they would
marry some day. At the breaking out of
the war Mr.. Shreve entered the Confeder-
ate service and became captain of the
Twenty -sixth Mississippi cavalry. In the
meantime his sweetheart had gone to a
convent to complete her education, and
before the close Of the war was married.
Mr.. Shreve also married and came to
Louisville. For years neither had heard
Of the other. When the Misdaippi burst
through the levsss Of Louisiana In April,
the plantation owned ~ Mrs. Wilson
was inundated, and she, with her moth
or, started to Philadelphia until the
flood shouh recede, as they have rela-
tyes there. When the train stopped at
the Tenth Street depot, Mr.. Shreve hap

nized. Mrs. Wilson and her mother re-
msined In the city a week before proceed

oAs Ossaa American IasatGAss IN ne
TslHs at Las4,
Perrin II. Sumner, the great American
idsntinsr, was ssntencsd to- six years In
stats prison BY Reoerder 0off in part one
general sessions, New York recently. He
was convicted Of grand larceny by fAlss
pretenses, committed In oonnsstion with
the sale Of land In Sussex county, N. j.,
20 Charles II. Goodwin OF Boston. The
amount that he got from Goodwin was
1900. Summer represented &c the pur-
lhaser that the land was covered with val
liable timbsr. An examination showed
that the 30 called timber was practically
valueloss.
Sumner got his nickname by Identify
Ing John II. Edgar, upon whose life he Is
thought to have held some insurance. He
came originally from Indiana and figured
for the FIRST time In public way because
O! his expulsion from Baptist church In
Rochester on charges which were subse-
quently dismissed by the courts. He then
went to San Francisco, where he engaged
In real estate business. Many papers at
once attacked his methods, but he prompt
ly silenced them with heavy libel suits.
The Evening Post was forced some years
ago to make Sumner u public apology.
After leaving San Francisco Sumner
came east, and not long after his arrival
In New York no spent some little time in
the Raymond Street jail. He then started
in on the career which won for him his
nickname. Whenever no heard of man
who had been found dead he Immediately
attempted to prove that that person was
John Fl. Edgar. He went all the way to
Canada in the hope of establishing the
identity Of a young boy found dead In the
woods as Edgar. His errand was unsuc-
cessful, as the boy was subsequently iden-
titled as Arthur Benwell. Then he at
tempted tn fasten the name Of Edgar upon
. man who WAS found dead on Staten
leland, but without success. An Astor
House suicide furnished him for a short
time with another Edgar, and he finally
attempted to prove that Yonksrs suicide
was Edgar. 1t was after this case that he
became known as the great American

mitted, In conjunction with othsr regular
recsipts, would more than suflos for the
needs OF the government. II this state
ment be true, and there 10 no reason TO be-
Iieve that It 10 not, there can bG no forcibls
excuse for increasing the tax on an
article that 10 so universally and extern
slvely consumed as sugar. Therich people
OF the country do not care for the tax, but
the poor will be heavily afflicted. sugsr,
1t is true, even under the beneficient reign
OF the trust, has been ranked as compar-
atively cheap commodity, but any addi'
tional tax will be felt, and by those who
are least able TO bear It..
The caucus would better have let the
fiaance committees first schedule alone.
The bill will make no new friends among
the masses and will only intensity the dis
trust OF general tariff bill. Taxation for
the mere sake of taxing is poor policy and
poor politics. This will be seen later on,
even IL the promoters of the bill do not
realize 1t now.

A HANDICAP ON CUPID.
The Latest Fad In East st. Louis Opposed
Matrimony.

The Latest Fad In East st. Louis Opposed
Matrimony.
Tho young unmarried society people OF
East st. Louis have introduced into their
ranks new fad which Is rapidly relegat.
ing to the rear the various fads which
have for short lengths of time held undis-
puted sway during the winter months.
This fad Is in the nature of a pledge or
compact In which the party 10 the first
part agrees to pay or give to the party of
the second part certain stipulated sum,
or, instead, anything that may be mutu-
ally agreed upon, should the party to the
first part marry before the party to the
second part, or vice versa.
The popularity of this fad Is fast becom-
ing undisputed. A number Of these com
pacts have already been drawn up and
signed by both parties, with the sigma.
lures Of the witnesses also written there
on. The rapid headway which the new
fad Is making among the young people Ia
source Of worry and dismay to the
clergypen nnd also to certain justices of
the peace, who see their good fees fast
melting away and are powerless to stop
them.-St. Louis Republic.

A CURFEW LAW.

What does the State OF Rhode Island
want of curfew law? Agent Thurber OF the
Society for. the Prevention of Cruelty OF
Children is loud spoken In his praise OF
such a statute, but has he carefully con-
sidered all the results of the imposition of
such a law? In brief 1t means that all
children, presumably those under the age
OF fifteen years, shall not have access to
the streets of the city after certain hour
of the night. One Nebraska city has such
a law, and the. testimonials of praise In its
favor are not vociferous. To certain ex-
tent 1t may prevent the growth of i'm
morality In the young in one direction,
but the evils growing out OF 1T will
counterbalance all, the good 1t may do.
Children cannot be legislated into sthe
practice of morality by mere enforcement
of statute. Tell q childi.that the llaw
forbids him to do that which is not to his
mind wrong, restrain, wantonly,:. his
liberty and visit him with punishment
whom he does not obey, and the efiect.will
be disastrous upon him.He will chafe
against the restraint and breed within
himself contempt for the law that will
unfit him for a peaceable and respectable
citizen. Children will receive commands
from their parents and bear them with
equanimity, when the same commando
imposed upon them by the law would le
a source of fret, discomfort andlirritation.
In all matters not relating to the infrae-
tion of public peace and wellbeing the
parent Is the proper censor OF the child.
He 10 the guardian of his morals in their
inception and proper advisor. To put
upon the State tina. which of right belongs
to the parent Is an infringement OF the
parents prerogative and an imposition
upon the child. The governor of Michigan
in vetoing and the anti-cigarette bill gave
expression to similar sentiment and his
opinion is generally shared by parents.

THE NEW SUGAR SCHEDULE.

A new sugar schedule was presented by
the finance committee yesterday. 1t does
not suit many people even yet and 1t il
probable that no list could be framed that
would in all respects meet the demands OF
the majority. The new schedule provides
1-95 cents per pound. Raw sugars, coarse,
from the fields of Java and the Philippine
Islands are by this schedule, to be ad-
mitted at one-tenth Of one cent less than
the coarse raws Of other countries.
There was considerable talk at the eau
Gus that framed the bill of abrogating the
Hawaiin treaty; but no decision was
reached as to this. The present treaty
with the islands may or may not be dis
pensed with In the future, but for the
present 1t Is likely to stand.
The schedule of the House provided for
tax Of 1875 cents per pound. The new
schedule provides tax .075 greater than
that of the House. This means, OF course,
that the consumer will pay .o75 cents per
pound more for each pound oi sugar he
uses.

the finance committees tariff bill to the
