The Massachusetts supreme court
has decided that it is contempt for an
editor to criticise a judge. Of course!
The "perfesh" must stand together,
else contempt for judicial asses and
judicial tyrants will grow beyond all
bounds. The public must not be per-
mitted to slacken its alteration of Tin
Gods, and can greet with only bated
breath their sacred dicta.

ONE of the thick and-thin Republic
can contemporaries last week asserted
that the Liggett-Myers Tobacco Com
pany had made 5000, 900 on an invest
ment of 100000; that the trust which
has lately absorbed the plant will make
less money and furnish better article
at reduced price, to the great bene-
fit of the consumer! Such confidence
is sublime in its innocence and absence
of guile. Within day or two of the
above remarkable averment the news
columns of the St. Louis papers an
nounced that the Tudor Iron Works of
East St. Louis, 'slately absorbed by the
trust" had closed down indefinitely,
throwing seven hundred men out of
employment, and that the Pittsburg
Plate Glass Trust. controlling so per
cent. of the output had advanced
prices on its products. Which goes to
prove that even so philanthropic a
creation as trust may be used by evil
people to work evil. We LOOK for the
aforesaid Republican contemporary to
promptly denounce the Iron and Plate
Glass Trusts as they deserve.

because of the unmistakable cut of the

AN AMATEUR PIRATE.
Maj stede bonnet Turned from Farm.
ing to Freebootine md Became
A Greedy Robber. q

Early in the eighteenth century there
lived at Bridgetown, in the island of
Barbados, a very pleasant, middle-aged
gentleman named Maj. Stede Bonnet.
He was a man in comfortable circum-
stances and had been an officer in the
British army. He had retired from mill
itary service, and had bought an estate
at Bridgetown, where he lived in COM
fort and was respected by his neigh
bors.
But for some reason or other this
quiet and reputable gentleman got it
into his head that he should like to bea
pirate. But besides the general rea-
sons why Maj. Bonnet should not be-
come a pirate, and which applied to all
men as well as to himself, there was a
special reason against his adoption of
the profession of a sea robber-he was
an out-and-out landsman and knew
nothing whatever of nautical matters.
He was fond of history and we'll read in
the literature of the day. He was ac-
customed to the habits Of good society,
and knew a good deal about farming
and horses and cows and poultry.
But notwithstanding his absolute I'M
fitness for such a life, Maj. Bonnet was
determined to become a pirate, and he
became one. He had enough money to
buy a ship and to fit her out and man
her, and this he quietly did at Bridge
town, nobody s%upposing that he was
going to do anything more than start
Off on some commercial cruise. When
everything was ready his vessel slipped
out of the harbor one night, and after
he was sailing safely on the rolling sea
claimed himself a pirate. He ran up
the black flag, girded on a great cut
lass, and folding his arms he ordered
his mate to steer the vessel to the coast
of Virginia.
Bonnet's men were practiced seamen,
and so when this green hand" came
into the waters of Virginia he actually
took two or three vessels and robbed
them of their cargoes, burning the ships
and sending the crews ashore.
This had grown to be a common Gus
tom among the pirates, who, though
cruel and hard hearted, had not the
inducements of the old buccaneers to
torture and murder the crews of the
vessels which they captured. 1t was
called narrowing" and was somewhat
less heartless than the old methods.
AS Bonnet wished to adopt the Gus
toms of the society in which he placed
himself, when he found himself too far
from land to put the captured crew or
shore he did not hesitate to make them
walk the plank, a favorite device of
pirates whenever they had no conven-
lent way of disposing of their prisoners.
In n branch of his new profession
Sonnet rapidly advanced. He soon be-
came a greedy robber and a cruel con
queror. He captured merchant vessels
all along the coast as far north as New
England.-Frank r. Stockton, in st.
Nicholas.

When a young man asks a father for his
daughters hand in marriage, If the father
is a wise one, he thinks of one thing equal
ly as important as the young mans morals,
social and business standing arc intelli-
gence. A young man who suffers from ILL
health has no right to marry until his health
is restored. To do so is to commit a crime
against the human race. While all diseases
may not be directly inherited, the constitu.
tional tendency to acquire them is inner
tied. If a mar is a consumptiye. the
chances are that his children will have
weak, understood lungs, and a predisposi.
ton to acquire the same disease.
The young man who suffers from bron.
chitis, weak lungs, splitting of blood or any
disease of the air-passages which, if neg
1ected leads up to consumption, may take
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery with
almost absolute assurance of recovery. It

and sensitive tissues of the air-passages and
