COMPROMISE is necessary to the
successful outcome of every such con-
ference as that at present being carried
on in Paris between our Peace Com
missioners and those of Spain. Each
party should go expecting and pre-
pared to make concessions. There are
a few conditions, however, which re-
main fixed and will allow of no abate-
ment. There is a right and wrong
side to all questions thus involved and
the wrong must suffer if right and
might are against it. One of the fixed
conditions confronting the Paris Peace
Commissioners today is the United
States demand that Spain shall T9lin-
quish the Philippine islands. In the
best Judgment of the people of the
United States this demand is right and
just, and consequently, this govern
ment will insist upon it. Spain is at
the same time the vanquished and the
offender and must, in consequence, be-
come the loser. There is none who
will seek to defend SPANS misrule in
all her colonies, nor deny that nothing
but evil can result from it's continu-
ance and good from its succession by
this country.
All the talk about compromise is
very we'll in its place, but in this in
stance it is worse than nonsense, it is
atrocity. Let there be compromise
wherever good will result, but right
cannot compromise with wrong. Spain
is merely reaping the results of her own
sowing and richly deserves the retribu
ton about to overtake her. Justice
pure and simple, is taking it's course,
nor should maudlin sentiment be al
lowed to avert it.

THE new mode of discipline recently
adopted by the Beloit college faculty,
viz, the imposition of a fine for mis-
conduct, no doubt has it's good features
but it is manifestly liable to rebound
harmlessly from the culprit and react
with severity either upon the innocent
pater familias or the long suffering
laundryman.

was designated by the numeral instead of a name. But the Devil denies this and cannot account for his name any more than other people who have tried to solve the mystery of the cognomen. As a reason for repudating the above theory. he ayers that he had no parents. He ex- plains his advent on earth by saying that Saint Peter left the gates of heaven ajar one day, and that he fell out and slid down the rainbow.
 He may have originally abided within the heavenly gates; cannot give positive tes- timony on this disputed point. But do assert that as devil of the Age-Herald com posing room he is quite distant from the realms of supernal bliss at present.

DON'T

Don't expect to shine in society if your clothes do.
 Don't strain your eyes looking for faults in your neighbor
 Don't get into the habit of judging book by the criticisms.
 Don't walk thirteen miles before break fast after your breakfast.
 Don't substitute black tea for green be- cause the purchaser is color blind.
 Don't accuse the fowl of being tough un- til your are sure the knife isn't dull.
 Don't forget that you injure your own character when you attack that of another. Don't carry a barrel of four on your head in order to acquire Q graceful carriage
 Don't forget that it Is wicked to bet and lose; no man has the moral right to be wrong.
 Don't scold your wife in the presence of others; they may think you are afraid to do it when alone with her.

Afterwards she returned east and spent a long while with her sister, who Is a leader of society in St. Louis She wrote to me for some of that delicious claret,' and first and last, sent her sisters household twenty barrels. They would buy no other sort of claret. And that is my opinion. California claret is the best in the world"
 That reminds me of an American war ship, on board of which I was entertained several times in a foreign port" said the man with the sweetly-foul pipe. "On board they had not bottle of wine that was not American. Their champagne, sherry, claret. port, Neierstiner, all, were native, and most excellent wines they were. The commander of the ship was Captain Francis W. Dick ins, now one of the most eminent experts in the navy department at Washing ton. DicSins, by the way, was the personal rep resentative of the president in attendance on the Princess Eulalie, of Spain, when she came to visit the Chicago fair; and he was presented with a famous Spanish decora- ton, which congress subsequently, author ized him to wear. It is a fact, perhaps not generally known, that the navy regulations do not permit spirituous liquor on board any American warship, except in the sur- gery and under the strict control of the ships surgeon.

 had always looked on "Six" as mere boy, and when one day he came to me with a confused look and informed me that he had just been married, and that he had not observed my card attached to any of the wedding presents, I was astonished. I cordially congratulated him on his future happiness, etc., and after assuring him that the present would be forthcoming, asked if he contemplated taking a wedding tour. He replied that he had been think ing of taking a ride out to Gate City and back, but had about given up the idea on account of the expense which would be necessarily incurred.
 Last week Six was sick, and one of the printers was compelled to work in his stead. Of course the regular union wages were charged, and on Wednesday when 'Six" came down for his pay he found a note in his envelope informing him that he was several dollars in debt to the office. When he read the note his countenance fell with dull thud, and he solemnly swore that thereafter he would work every night, If he had to be brought down to the office in an ambulance.

Very often when hobo printer strikes town he will come around to the office and tell the devil pitiful story about how hungry he is, and that with the small amount of quarter he would be able to appease that gnawing sensation. Six im- asines that he sees a grand opportunity for charity, and invariably furnishes the amount requested The hobo departs, and Six takes a seat in the window to watch him make dive for a nearby saloon, where he spends the money for bad booze and tells friend what slick trick he worked on the Age-Herald devil. This makes "Six" exceeding wroth and he swears never to give another hobo cent under any circumstances. But nevertheless, | the next one that comes along receives any amount that he happens to request But after all the galley boy of the Age- Herald stands first in the list of the news- paper devils of the country.
