Was she distant enough? is it not pos
sible to infer that, if she had sufficiently
impressed the young man, or any young
man, or any man at all, that she was
lady in every sense of the word, this IN
toward event would not have happened?
There can be only one answer. The sug
gestion contained in the neighborhood
newspaper that the woman did not object
at all, and moreover, did not object to
having il known that she didn't object,
seems to us entirely unworthy. To bring
a suit inevitably would make public the de-
tails of a little social matter which, under
any circumstances, whether it had been
participated in willingly or unwillingly,
ought never to have known the light Of
day.
The safest rule. as we believe Mr.. Dana,
OF the Sun, will bear US out in saying,
is that, as kissing is undesirable and inn
proper in the extreme, it must be avoided
at all hazards IL this should seem inn
possible upon any particular occasion,
and We confess that such a case is con-
ceivable, then let nothing be said about
the matter, and let it be forgotten quickly

ONE LADY,s MISTAKE.

A curious discussion is vigorously under
way in one Of the interior towns Of Penn
sylvania as to tile value Of kiss, and,
secondarily, if it has any value that can
he estimated in money. 1t appears that
q certain young married woman las beer
kissed by "a scion Of a prominent and
wealthy family" and the question OF
expense i'm this proceeding was soon
brought to the attention Of an eager pop
ulace by a suit at law, in which the
woman and her husband combined to sue
the Young man for ST. 900, or $1,000 for
each of the two kisses, piece Of mathemat-
les which is very lucid. Naturally, the first
question to be decided is, what was the
damage, if any? This all the neighbors,
and indeed most of the persons OF an
Inquisitive mind in all parts Of the coun-
try, want TO know, and just how far two
persons ought 10 proceed in matters Of
this kind.
We must insist that It seems very silly
that any woman, and especially that any
married woman, with or without tie con
sent or support of her husband, should
bring !; suit of this kind. We are roueh-
safed, it is true, no definite information as
10 the character OF the young man. He
seems to have been very familiar. If he
was. then how much encouragement, If
any, was put in his pathway TO stumble
over? Was the lady entirely reserved:

LAYING AN OLD GHOST.

Congress should act without delay upon
senator Martins report, recommending set
tlement Of the ancient Washington market
claims. They constitute one Of the old
ghosts OF the Napoleonic regime Of Governor
Shepherd, and should be laid at rest.
Washington owes so much Of its present
attractiveness, health and convenience to
the drastic methods pursued by its whilom
dictator, that there is little disposition to
dig them up for adverse criticism at this
late day The fact remains, as one Of un-
doubted history, that on a certain occa-
Aon. in 1872, the denizens OF the Washing
ton market, situate at the intersection of
happily home from their stalls, leaving car
casses, and cleavers, butcher knives and
butter, beans and bananas, figs and fix
lures, in readiness for the duties and labors
OF the following day But, when the morn
ing OF that day dawned, market and con-
tents had disappeared. Under cover of the
night the District Shepherd had taken IL to
his arms and walked off with il bodily, i'm
the interests OF urban reform.
The proposition is to reimburse the mar
ket people who suffered loss through the
destruction Of their property, and the
physical abolition Of the privileges for
which stan holders had paid in advance.
All these sufferers ought to have been
honorably settled with long ago. But de-
feTed payment is better than reputation.

The President Hns No Thought OF
Going to Cherry Farm

The President Has No Thought of
Going to Cherry Farm.
President Mckinley is very much averse
TO being used for advertising purposes
even in the remotest degree. and he and
Secretary Porter avoid giving opportunity
to any one to make such use of his name
and office. Since his advent into office
numberless attempts have been made 20
find out where the President will spend the
summer, and he has received all kinds of
offers from men and communities. Many
OF these have been made in good faith,
without intending that they should be
used for anybody's benefit. In one instance
an offer made in good faith has been turn
ed into advertising purposes.
Some time ago the President was invited
to make his summer residence at Cherry
Farm, in Virginia, owned by ex-senator
Henderson. The invitation was courteous
ly declined, the statement being added by
Secretary Porter that the President would
go nowhere for the summer until the close
OF Congress. Immediately afterward an
elaborate story appeared in local paper
that the President would make Cherry
Farm" his home. All the details of this
change We're duly published. At the same
time it was officially stated in The Star
that the President would not go there or
anywhere else at that time and had not
decided where he would CO. This has
been the Presidents position all along and
is well known. Despite this, the Cherry
Farm story continues to be heralded
around. and the President. according to
the latest stories, has all arrangements
made for his stay there. In the mean
time, real estate hustlers are getting in
their work and many people are being
fooled.
In circles close to the President the entire
scheme is characterized as a fake 1t
finds no favor and will result in more eau
ton among White House officials here
after.

OUR FOREIGN MARKET.
Efforts to Have Discrimin tiOn and
Prejudice Removed.

Efforts to Have Discrimin q ton and
Prejudice Removed.
The action outlined in the interview with
Belamy Storer before sailing for Europe
looking to vigorous representations to
Great Britain Germany and Belgium, and
doubtless to France, for a modification of
the discriminating measures against Amer
lean cattle is the result of the efforts of
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson to combat
the prejudices of the old world against our
farm products, and to secure to our ex-
porters at least the same rights that are
enjoyed by those of other countries.
Ever since the new administration began
Secretary Wilson has been pushing this
matter and taking advantage of every op
portunity to gain the ends sought. He has
had frequent interviews with the President
and with Secretary Sherman on the SUBJ
polntees have had conferences with the
Agricultural Department officials, at which
questions OF this kind were discussed and
the situation explained.
The State Department is now co-operat
ing in the movement, and in various ways
has instructed it's representatives going to
the countries named to present statements
of The case to the respective governments,
setting out the determinations imposed on
our products, together with data showing
them to be unjustifiable. These statements
will also show that the restrictions placed
by our government on exports of cattle
preclude any material danger of loss by
disease or otherwise. Official reports of
experts in the field will be cited to demon
strate that American cattle products show
a much greater exemption from disease
than those of practically all other coun-
tries. These representations will be ac-
companied by the significant warning that
if the unjust discriminating measures are
continued proper action will have to be
taken by this government. Discriminating
nations will be given to understand that
the rights of American exporters must be
recognized, or else privileges accorded for
eign producers will be withdrawn.

LONDON, June H. The Pail Mall Ga
zette this afternoon says that the Marquis
Ito, the japanese statesman who was in

that Japan will not create International
difficulties in connection with Hawaii and
that certainly no other country will object
to the annexation of Hawaii by the United
States. Commenting on this utterance, the
Pail Mall Gazette says:
president Mckinley may call annexation
merely continuance of existing relations,
but 1t Is an undoubted departure in the
colonizing sense. 1t does not mean that
Cuba will follow. or anything of that kind
put 1t means strong naval policy. The
United States will certainly be great
sea mower in the future: her commerce
and seaboard necessitate that, and Hawaii
Will be OF the greatest value If 1t means
naval expenditure now, and 1t may well
ture.'
