Lucky Short Hair.

An English judge wears in court a
great wig and gown and is addressed
as my lord" Public sentiment scarce
ly allows him 20 unbend, even oht of
court Nevertheless sometimes he does
unbend
1t is related in a biographical sketch
of Sir Henry Hawkins, who was so
prominent in the prosecution of the ia
nous Tichborne claimant, and who is
now judge, that he is in the habit Of
wearing his hair extremely short.
He was once waiting tor train at
the EPSON station on race day, and q
number of roughs came III. One of them
behaved very rudely to the judge, who
demonstrated with him, and thereupon
the rough invited Sir Henry to come
outside and "have it out with him. :"
The judge reflected that, as the men
appeared to be of the criminal classes,
some of the party might have appeared
before him and would know him. So
he took off his hat and said:
Perhaps you do not know who !
am.
His assailant looked at his closely
cropped head and edged off. "S'help
me, Bob!" he exclaimed, "a bloomin
prizefghter! Not mel"
The judge was not molested further

A Clever Solicitor.

Mr.. Benjamin James was solicitor.
Hewa clever man, and he was also a
clever solicitor. When he had case in
hand, he either lost it or else he won it.
Sometimes it was the one way and
sometimes the other.
But it was usually the former.
As there were two possibilities to the
conclusion OF any action, so he had two
forms Of announcing the results to his
clients.
If he was successful, he wrote:
Mr.. j. u. Brown Ire Brown v. SMITH:

Ono Preachers View OF Woman as a
Guide.
A blatherskite preacher says, "Under
woman's guidance man sinks incompre-
hensibly low" Undoubtedly the blath-
erskite preacher judges all women by
his own wife and mother, but he has no
right TO do it. If, however, woman de-
sires to reach the very loftiest pinnacle
of moral purity and superiority to baser
passions we know that all she has to
do is to submit herself entirely to man
will and guidance. How low women
would sink, to be sure, if they did not
have men TO keep them up TO the high
mark of goodness and purity
The new constitution of Louisiana
confers suffrage on taxpaying women in
all matters pertaining to the levying
of taxes. Once more the sun do move.
Miss Edith j. Griswold, successful
patent solicitor of New York city, has
written for The Alumne News an adj
mirable article on Women as Patent
Solicitors She thinks this department
of work is one which offers success and
encouragement TO women, and she gives
some excellent advice OH how TO learn
the business and gain foothold in it.
A snip of young man in the Ohio
legislature, that, too, the son of COED
equal rights champion, the martyred
President Garfield, had the gall to rise
and say that women should not have
suffrage because they were "too mex
perienced in public matters to be in
trusted with voaes. - Great heavens,
but this is deliciousl
Some one has said that the saddest
thing on earth is a childless woman
Considering what SO many women's
children are, doubt the statement very
much
Frances Willard proved her truly en-
lightened and progressive ideas by leav-
ing directions that her body should be
cremated. After time all the world
will sea that cremation is as truly ortho-
dos way of disposing of dead bodies
as any other, besides being the only san
itary InetboI. What horror this pure,
sweet earth would be il we were to
make it one huge charnel house!
1t is not generally known that Smith
college for women was founded by a
woman, Miss Smith.
There is no need for women to be
jealous of one another in competing in
the industrial field. If each does her
own task as well as it can be done, that
is enough. She has no need to fear any
body. To be jealous Of the advancement
OF another is to confess your own inferi-
Gritty. Give a generous hand and help
full word to every sister woman you can.
1t will be returned to you hundred
fold. ELIZA ARCHARD CONNER.

The war situation has reached it's
climax so many times of late that the
TRIBUNE does not venture an opinion
as to whether there will be war or not.
The presidents message was a disap-
pointment to many of his own party.
It's safe to say that the reading of the
same gave the Americans more pain
than it did the Spaniards. Whether
anything is done or not depends en-
tirely upon congress.

A careful reading of McKinley's
message discloses the Presidents OBJ
ject-forcible pacification of Cuba,
"hostile constraint upon both parties
to the CONTEST not one word or
syllable indicating that he desires
civil or political liberty to the Cubans.
We cannot believe that Congress and
the American people will allow the
President to use our army for the
subjugation Of the Cuban patriots to
be again subjected to Spanish rule.
One single word dearer to the human
heart than life itself-liberty is sadly
wanting in the Presidents otherwise

OFFICE IN TRIBUNE BUILDING.
TUESDAY, APRIL IL, 1898.
THE VILLAGE ELECTION.

The result of the election is published
officially in another column. ''No
License" was defeated by 25 votes.
At first sight this figure may not ap-
pear very encouraging to the people
who worked hard to abolish the saloon,
but there are circumstances which
prove that gains for prohibition have
been made in every ward. In the First
and Third wards this gain however
was more than Offset by the large
number of voters disfranchised because
of neglect to secure citizen papers.
Thirty-two such persons were listed
in First ward alone, and the whole
number in the village is about one
hundred. We have good reason to
believe that nearly all votes so lost
would have been against license. In
the Second ward, where the number OF
disfranchised voters is very small the
majority in favor of license was only
~, where at the election two years ago
it was SO, a gain of ~ votes against
license. Let the good work 90 on,
and the next election will see the tri-
umph of the cause. IA question is
never settled until it is settled right. -
The result on the ticket Is highly
satisfactory to all people who believe
in good village government regard
less of party lines. While four alder
men were elected on the republican
ticket, giving majority in the coun-
Gil, still these men, we believe, were
not those most depended upon to carry
out the program OF the clique which
originated the partisan move, and
none of them, we believe, would sacri-
flee efficiency and competency in the
employees of the village for the sake OF
rewarding mere partisan fealty.
Scores of republicans in all the wards
voted the citizens ticket and thereby
stamped their disapproval upon the
attempt to stampede the voters of the
village by drawing party lines. The
grand old Third ward, however, that
casts nearly one-half of the vote OF
the village, saved the day, and rolled
up a majority for the citizens ticket
which could not be overcome. The re-
suit has dampened the ardor of the
ring-leaders of the so-called "republi-
cans" and the TRIBUNE predicts that
hereafter village matters will be de-
cided on their own merits. Scheming
politicians will not be blind to the
handwriting on the WALL"
