ERMAY HONOR AND THINGS.

The German army is chuck full of honor. At the close of a military feast in Morchingen an army surgeon pr. Ruger, who was boasting of his mus cular strength, seized an officer of the Seventeenth infantry regiment, Captain Adams by the wrists and forced him off his chair on the floor. Captain Adams lost his temper, and resenting Dr. Ruger's rather rough humor, went so far as to strike him. He then left the entertainment and went to his rooms. Thither he was soon followed by two other captains, deputed to ar range the affair in accordance with the military code of honor. Captain Adams had gone to bed, but third visitor was awaiting him. This was Lieutenant Ruger, the brother of the insulted army surgeon. Although the two captains ex- postulated with him, Lieutenant Ruger insisted on remaining, and when the door of the room opened and Captain Adams was about to enter, he drew a pistol and shot him dead on the spot. The murderer then handed his sword to the two captains and explained that he had sacrificed himself for his brother, who was the father of family, and who would probably have been killed if he had fought a duel with Captain Adams, who was a notoriously good shot. On surrendering himself to the authorities of the garrison, Lieutenant Ruger was conveyed to Metz, where he awaits his trial by court martial.
 A code of honor which leads to such things as this needs revision.

tion of those two noble states, in order that Rhodes and his accomplices might get full possession of the mineral wealth of those lands. Kruger, 1t is true, by wise concession and masterly diploma cy, succeeded for time in averting the war which Rhodes was determined to force upon the Boers. But Rhodes had already procured MT. Chamberlaih s secret support in the carrying out or Jameson's Raid He knew that he could count on the colonial secretary. Then, to make assurance doubly sure, he fixed" the Prince of Wales, and thus he was ready to defy "the non-con- formist conscience" and every other ln- iluence that stood in his way.
 The spirit of commerci1lism IS much talked about and there is much occa- sion for it. We are beginning to think it almost true that every man has his price. Corruption is eating its way in to nearly all classes. But it is certainly not a cheering spectacle to see the throne of England ascended by one who has disgraced himself by a life of licentiousness and gambling, and who has had his pockets weighted with an enormous load of ill-acquired money.

STUD

Mir John Lockie, of England, is a well known labor student, and he has been studying the condition and pros- poets of Great Britains trade. As a result of his study he has begun the formation of the National Federation of Masters Associations and Trades Unions, the object being to educate the minds of employers and employees con- corning the grave responsibilities which rest with them in respect to the ex- pansion of British trade; to devise means to meet foreign competition; to send joint deputations on capital and labor abroad to inquire into the condi- tions of other countries, and to provide a federation where employers and em- ployes may meet on the same plane.
 This sounds well, and it Is evident that something must be done if Great Britain is going to hold her own with United States competition. It Is under stood that the Conservative leaders are taking a serious interest in the scheme, in the hope that it may form the means of solving a problem which they con slider sooner or later is bound to enlbar- rass the government.

PROGRESS OF 4 PLOT.

Yesterdays hearing before the Com mittee on Judicial Nominations at Hartford made it plain that the office for which Judge Cable has been nomi- hated is badly wanted by somebody else. So badly that things are being done and planned that cannot be approved by those who like fair-play. The latest scheme Is to call a meeting of the New Haven County bar in the hope that those present at the meeting can be induced to declare against Judge Cable, and thus give backing to the queer plot that has been made. It will be strange indeed if any such action is taken against such a reputable, experienced and competent member of the legal pro- fession as Judge Cable is. He is enti- tied to better treatment than that, and he has right to expect it. And it is not customary for bar associations to be made the tools of schen1ing politi- clans.
 Yesterday the members of the caucus which nominated Judge Gable appeared in his favor before the Committee on Judicial Nominations That committee was persuaded to postpone its decision by the plea that meeting of the New Haven County bar was to be held But the fact remains that Judge Gable, after long and hot fight, was nominated by vote of 19 to 5 Everybody had had full opportunity to do all the talking and slandering they wanted to do. Much of both had been done. There has been no charge that Judge Cable's victory was unfairly won. He has the ability, the character, the knowledge. the expe- rience and the wisdom needed In the place for which he has been nominated Is there any fairness in the attack upon him? Should the legislature give 1t any countenance, or should "the regular or der'' be pursued in his case? If caucus nominations are to be dealt with as Judge Cables opponents want his nom ination dealt with, of what use are eau cuses. and when will candidate for office know where he Is at?

THE LITERARY PATRON.

Mention of the poverty of rising au- thors reminds one that it has lately been argued that the institution of the patron might have to be revived for the protection even of those who have made their mark. Probably the author who was neither a genius nor dunce-and, after all, the great majority of the tribe must always be of this calibre-and who could find a patron seventy years ago, was quite as well off as he would be now. The only thing he had to look to was that he had friends who could really give him something worth his &C., ceptance. Burns, of course, received an exciseman's place. which, although it may now seem no very great matter, was one much run after by the class from which he had sprung. But five thousand pounds was subscribed for Horne Tooke's "Diversions Of Purley,
 while James Mill for his not very read able History of India" was rewarded with a place in the India office, starting at eight hundred pounds and rising to two thousand pounds a year. Leslie Stephens who mentions these sums in his excellent English Utlitarians," seems inclined to think them lnade- quate to the receivers merits, but ex- cept for few lucky ones who, pace Sir Walter Besant, are earning the salaries of cabinet ministers, how many of those who live by their pens can make such sums now?
 The fact seems to be that the patron of old times generally gave his approval for reasons which werenot difficult to discover. and that either by real merit, or by flattering his prejudices, the wri- ter generally managed to bring him the wares which suited him. But Demos, though liberal enough when he IS pleased is in the habit of bestowlng his patronage for much more cryptic req sons. One of his pet theories IS that a statesman is the best authority on past times, a deluSon which dates back cer- tainly as far as the times of Guizot and Thiers. It was doubtless this that caused MT. Gladstone's lucubratlons upon the Homeric age and the youth or the world to be welcomed, and Lord |Rosebery's Napoleon" to sell like not

MODEST AND REASONABLE

The Sampson-Sehley controversy Is on again, and it may be occasionally on fer the next thousand years or more. The editor of the Naval Service Gazette has something interesting and im- portant to say concerning talk he had with Schley on board the Brooklyn the day after the destruction of Cervera' s fleet. When congratulated on the thor oughness of his achievement the Com modore disclaimed his right to any spe- cial credit for what he called simply the performance of his duty, but he did not hesitate to express his joy at the chance which had brought him the op- portunity to fight and win great bat tie.

dispute as to where the victory lies" A moment later the visitor said, You Il get d substantial reward for yester- day's work" and then inquired, IF you could name your own reward What would you have from the President and roneress?'' After the Commodore had declared that it was not for him 10 measure the value of what had been done. he continued: q would suggest this as a good and sufficient reward: of the President or Congress have struck off bronze medals commeiiao- rating the victory. Let one De gwen to every officer and man who particl- hated in the battle, one of these medals to go to me. I would value 1t hlghly. You know, I don't believe in special medals of gold and silver. Just plain bronze medals-for all alike. Ihen there is one more reward which l would like. It would mean much to me- It is the thanks of Congress by name That's all expect; all hope for. Wlth it. and my own consciousness of duty done, I shall be satisfied"
 This was very modest and reasonable talk. The story of it will add to the good opinion which Schley's country men have had. of him.
