A Monte Carlo story.

The London Telegraph tells this Monte
Carlo story: "A woman entered the sale
while a prince whom she knew was win
ming in a sweeping style that seemed de-
stined TO break the bank. I am so glad
to see you here. Prince, and in such luck,
toor she exclaimed. DO tell me a lucky
number; it is sure to win, for you are now
in the Vein The Prince generously placed
a pile of gold louis before the vivacious
lady whose beauty had successfully de-
fed the effects of thirty-six winters, and
said: Put il all on the number of your
years and reap a golden harvest The
lady reflected, hesitated, hesitated, and
then placed the pile on twenty-seven. An
instant later the croupier sang out, 'Thir-
ty-six red winsv The lady muttered, 'Ah,
mon Dieu; thirty-six is exactly my age,
and tainted on the spot"

certain as any political occurrence in the
future can be-" The Globe-Democrat
should have supplemented this with in
formation as to whether or not the an

Gus features. 1t strikes us that the de-
cision of the Paris authorities is eminently
correct. Why should there be a distinc-

and discrimination against women? A
"woman's department" presumes that the
great exposition. considered as a whole. is
mans; that by his grace and condescen-
sion woman is permitted to occupy one rel
atively small section of the exhibition
space, and show that She also is making
some progress along the lines of human
endeavor. Under the French plan the ex-
position will be one of the people-men

elimination.

CURRENT COMMENT.

Commenting on the execution of Mrs
Place and the discrimination that is often
made between male and female criminals,
the Baltimore Sun (Dem) says: I'm re-
cent years there have been several cases
where murderers have escaped the gallows
because they were women and apparently
for no other cause Mrs. Maybrick an
American woman, was convicted in Eng
land of the murder of her husband by
poison. She WIS sentenced to imprison-
ment for life. More recently Georgia
woman a Mrs. Noble, was convicted of
most atrocious murder and sentenced to
death. There was a tremendous appeal
In her behalf, and the Governor committed
her punishment to Imprisonment. Mrs
Botkin, convicted in California of the muir
der of Mrs Dunning and Mrs. Deane in
Delaware by sending poisoned candy to
them, was sentenced by the verdict of the
jury which convicted her to Imprisonment
for life instead of DEATH"
The Chicago Chronicle (Dem.) Is inclined
to take a somewhat serio-comlc view of
the meeting at Jekyl Island. II saws:
"Intrenched there, in the affections of the
stout barons who inhabit the seouestered
isle, Mr.. Reed may bid defiance to the
majors belated efforts to win the ellegi-
ance and support of the islanders The
speaker has been victorious in the prelim-
mary skirmish. Nay, more--he may count
with some confidence upon ultimate sue
cess. For as Jekyl Island goes, 80 goes
the union-if the checkboolx has not lost
Its potency since November 1886. The ma
jor may well bewail in anguish of heart
the sloth and idle daniance which have
kept him at Townsville when he should
have heen at ,TelkVl Island -
The Richmond Times (Dem) says: 1--WE
believe the amendment of the constitu-
ton to permit the election of senators by
direct vote of the people is on its way to
place in that instrument The people
have seen so many miscarriages in the
choice of senators that they are weary of
system which can bring about such OBJ
noxious results. Nothing has tended more
to accentuate popular inquest in this mat
ter than the legislative deadlocks that
have been recently seen all over the I'M
ION"
The New York Tribune (Rep) says:
'"The white mans burden is to be meas
ured by the fact that the colonies and pro
tectorates of civilized nations now com
prise more than 40 per cent. of the area
and about one-third of the population Of
the world The white man is, indeed, his
brothers keeper on a gigantic scale"
