Good Government.

In almost every city and State Gov
eminent of the country honor and pur-
ity and patriotism would govern act
ion if the leading citizens would come
forward and insist that only upright
men should be placed in positions of
trust. There is hardly any considera-
BILE town in the country perhaps none
above the dignity of a miners camp or
ow-puncher's rendezvous, that would
not vote and vote sincerely for the
victory of public honor and virtue over
faithlessness and vice as an abstract
proposition, and no doubt when good
citizens get sufficiently aroused, they
can make their Governments, local,
State, or national, about what they
were intended to be by the plan of the
original charters. The trouble is they
only occasionally reach the point where
they are willing to devote valuable
time and consecrate valuable energies
to the public welfare, and when they do
that and thereby win victories, they
are too much disposed to rest on their
arms.-Boston Transcript.

Legal Reasoning.

The Judge was inclined to be put out
about the matter. That was very evil
dent. He scowled and shook his head,
and for a minute or two it looked as if
he would arbitrarily refuse to entertain
the motion.
This is the eighth time you have
asked for a continuance" he said at
last.
1T is, your honor" admitted the law
yer, but your honor must realize that
there are great interests at stake in this
trial. and my client is entitled to every
reasonable opportunity to prove his in
nocence."
Would an immediate trial interfere
with that in any way?" demanded the
Judge.
Indeed it would" answered the law
yer.
Il don't see how" said the Judge TT
is now a good many years since suit
was first brought against your client,
and one excuse or another trial has
been put off and there has been pro-
crastination of all kinds
Nothing more than is called for I'M
der the circumstances argued the law
yer.
What preliminary litigation there
has been has been strung out intermin-
ably
Your honor must see that the rights
of defendant in matter of this de-
scription are protected"
You have had ample time to get all
your witnesses here asserted the
Judge.
That's just the trouble, your honor"
The trouble?'
His honor was puzzled.
Certainly. If we go to trial now
said the lawyer, there is every reason
to believe that a few subpenas would
get most of the witnesses into court,
and-and-"
"WeH?"
Why" exclaimed the lawyer in des-
peration, surely your honor knows
enough of modern court procedure to
realize that we are entitled at the very
| least, to sufficient time to allow some
of the principal witnesses against us to
die or get beyond the jurisdiction of the
court by moving to foreign countries
and taking up their residence there.
Surely your honor will not permit the
prosecution to beat US out of our right
by forcing us to trial before a single
witness has died. 1t is not our fault
that they are long-lived lot"-Chica-
go Post.

form the French Government that if the
sale was carried into effect it would be
regarded at Berlin as a casus belli. The
French Cabinet, which had until then
been in complete ignorance of the whole
matter, brought Bismarck's message to
the Emperor's notice, and the ultimate
result of the affair was that confer
ence of the great Powers was organized
in London to consider the subject, and
to devise an agreement according to the
terms of which the Prussian garrison
from Luxembourg was withdrawn, all the
! Notifications RACED to the ground, and
its neutrality assured. Had not the
American Egeria of King William of
Holland interviewed to prevent the sale
of Luxembourg in 1867, nothing could
have prevented the war between France
and Germany from breaking out then
and there.
SOME OTHER INFLUENTIAL
AMERICANS.
Without making more than passing
reference to the fact that couple OF
American men acquired so much 1nf1u-
ence over the late King of Wurtem-
| berg as to bring about Ministerial
crisis in 1888, and very nearly the depo-
sition of the King, the difficulty Delng
settled only by the exile of the two FOR
eigners from the country, attention
| should be drawn to the part played not
merely in English society, but also IN
British political life by Lady Randolph
Churchill, a New York girl, to whom
her brilliant husband owed so much of
his success as a statesman; to William
Waldorf Aston, who, by judlc1ous use or
his wealth and of his journalistic prop
critics which he has acquired, is Decom-
| ing one of the powers with which Eng
lish Parliamentary parties have to rec
kon: to the Countess Gianotti and the
| Princess Brancaccio, both of them
American women, who, through Queen
Marguerite, whose ladies-in- waiting
they are, and through their husbands,
who are among the principal dignitaries
of the italian Court, exercise much infiu-
ence over King Humbert, and last, but
by no means least, to DR.. Thomas
Evans at Paris. He, during his forty
years Of professional attendance upon
the teeth Of European royalty, has been
intrusted with many confidential mes

There are so many things that cannot
be transmitted through the ordinary Of
fetal and diplomatic channels, and yet
which have often a most important
bearing upon the course of events.-Ex-

AFRAID OF HIMSELF.
Wanted to be Near the Ambulance
When the Stroke Fell.

a slim, midle-aged man, with a new
bicycle suit, had stood for an hour in
front Of the Emergency Hospital Every
now and then he wiped his eyeglasses
and gazed at the building. Taking his
handkerchief he carefully busted off
place on the curbstone and sat down
His persistent watching attracted the
attention of one of the attaches of the
institution, who went out to inquire his
business.
This is the Emergency Hospital, isn't
it?' said the stranger.
Yes"
And it's likely that the ambulance
will go out before long, is it not?"
Its liable to go out at any minute,
but you can't go riding around in it
merely for fun
"Oh, / don't want to ride in it. But
want to be on the safe side The truth
of the matter is that I have a reckless
nature, and l have to curb it, Mother
always said I was foolhhrdy, and my
wife is constantly telling me that if /
were allowed to go ahead and do as I
please I'd be a perfect daredevil. So,
knowing my own disposition as I do,
there is nothing left except for me to
observe extraordinary precaution. I've
had my fourth lesson on the bicycle and
I'm going out on the street for the first
time this afternoon. I haven't any par
ticular route laid out, and I always like
to see things done just as promptly and
with as little commotion as possible
What 1 propose to do is to follow the
ambulance around wherever it goes.
and if 1 happen to need it II be right
there handy. l will be spared all need
less delay, and the driver will not be
put to the inconvenience of an extra
trip, to say nothing of the wear and tear
that Wen save on the telephone" -

enough TO realize the imprudence. from
Dutch point of view, of what was
about to take place, and sufficiently
sensible to perceive that it must in

war with one another-a war which
would interfere sadly with his life Of

he was at daggers drawn, would mere

curses if he attempted to demonstrate
with him about the matter, he has
tened TO Nine. Musard and appealed to
her to use her influence with the King
to withdraw from the deal before it
was too late. This she endeavored to
do. But finding that, in spite of all her
arguments the King remained irreso-
lutte, and fearing lest, unbeknown to
her, he should carry through his pro-
ject, she warned the celebrated Mar
quise de Paiva (afterward Countess
Henckel Won Donnesmark) of what was
planned, and before many hours had
elapsed Bismarck had been placed in
possession of all the facts of the case.
Had Prussia been prepared at that
moment for a war with France. Bis

have awaited events. But Prussia was
not ready So Bismarck caused the
