Paris has no sky-scraping buildings
such as are seen in American cities, for
the reason that there is a law there which
prohibits the erection of any building TO
a greater hight than the width of the
street upon which 1t stands However, a
permit has just been issued in Paris for
a fourteen-story building, and Paris is
wondering if it is now at the beginning of
a sky-scraper era.

Reward of Merit.

Now children said the teacher of the
infant class of a Hyde Park Sunday
school, according TO the Chicago Times
Herald. 81 told You last Sunday that
each of you who learned a verse from
the Bible and recited it to-day would re-
ceive d large blue card. Let me see how
many of you have learned a verse"
There were twenty-five or thirty boys
and girls, from four to eight years of
age ranged about her in a circle. For
moment there was no response TO her
question. Then a bright-looking girl
timidly raised a little hand.
"Ah! Julia has learned a verse" the
teacher said. Il am sorry that no more
hands are raised. 1 had hoped that ever
so many of you would get blue cards to-
day But I suppose your mammas and
papas have been very busy, and some of
you forgot Well, Julia, let us near you
recife a verse"

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Birmingham News Dem), says:
Senator Morgan's position on the suff-
rage question is plain and unequivocal.
He wants the negro disfranchised. He
prefers to do away with the franchise of
the negro rather than rear young white
men year after year to steal the negro
vote He would rather the vote Of the
state be confined to the owners of prop
erty and Inc pillars of society than to
nominally allow the negro to vote and
then descend to his level and steal his
ballot from him. He wants the charge
that this state is engaged in a regular,
continuous and systematic practice OF lar
ceny eliminated. He wants the practical
real cation of the platform of Gov. john
ston that the virtuous and the intelligent
shall rule
The Chicago Chronicle Dem) says THE
chosen leader of the Democratic minority
in the Congress about to assemble should
have the best qualities of accomplished
leadership. He should possess uncommon
requirements for counsel and command.
A small ambition for temporary conspic-
uosity should be no part of his character.
Perhaps a too arduous seeking for the
place should be regarded a disqualif-
cation Men hunting for such a position
are not the best judges of their own fit
ness. 1t is an office which should come.
not one that should be sought Nature
prepares natural leaders. No other lead
err will command followers. That is now
the greatest need Of the Democratic party
in Congress.

Oem0 is not sure that Goebel mas not his

Joe Blackburn wants. 1t says: of joe

he had better lock il up in a vault and

The Eatable Sparrow.

Someone sarcastically suggests that
the most efficient method to extermin-
ate the sparrows is to apply the game
laws to them. This, of course, is in
view of the ineffectiveness of the
game laws to protect better birds from
destruction. We are led by it to con-
slider what has previously been
brought to mind in the sparrow dis
cussion, namely, that the sparrow, as
a bird, furnishes excellent eating. 1t
is nearly, if not quite, as edible as
other small birds which have more re-
putation for the table. In point of
fact, it is shrewdly suspected that a
good many sparrows are now served
up under different names, and are en-
joyed by those who think they have
the taste of the epicure If the spar
rows could have the value with those
who like delicate bird flesh that their
succulency merits, it might aid essen
italy in their determination.

this state. It is composed of twelve
good looking young ladies, and is
probably the only ladies' cornet band
in West Virginia. They use good
silver horns and render excellent
music. It is putting 1t mildly to
say that they are quite an attraction
wherever they go to discourse mu-
sic, as well as the pride of the little
town where they reside. Since last

much pains with the ladies.

HARRISBURG HAS A SENSATION.
Stranger Marries Good Girl and Then
Deserts Her.

Clarksburg has sensation. 1t has
been discovered that Bruno Miceninger
and Miss Jennie CLANCY were married
as long ago as Sept. 26, 1897, and the
fact that they are married has been
..ept secret all these long months
until day or two ago. Opinions
differ as to how the facts came into
possession of the public, but the main
point is that the public does possess
them Miss CLANCY is very pretty
girl.
The man in the case appears to be
considerable Of a coward. When it
became known that he and Miss
Clancy were married, he left, sudden
ly and let no one know he was going
Miceniger came to Clarksburg from
Erie, Pa, to work in jewelry store
He had an imposing presence and
fine voice. He sang in two choirs
and his courtships were numerous,
even after his wedding as he posed all
the time as single man. Society
accorded Miceninger an unprecedented
distinction. He was received without
introduction, pedigree or vestige as to
who he was, or where he came from.
Instinct just naturally told society
that he was fit person to enjoy its
most implicit confidence and of course
he needed no credentials. Now it
feels the full blow of the penalty for
discarding that long established usage,
because he has not acted the true man
to the sweet, pure girl he induced to
secretly marry him.
