BIIou-"BoIIvar's Busy Day."


Billy B. Van is preparing to change His
name. Like many another player before
him he believes soubriquet to be beneath
the dignity of a first magnitude star ana
now that he has attained stardom we may
expect Billy to make way for William.
For this step he has been provided with
admirable precedent. 1t was Nat Good
win until fortune smiled; but to-day Nat
is dead, long live Nathaniel. Likewise,
Willie became William Collier; and he OF
the house of Mansfield, Dick in his Koko
days, dOffed the dimfnutfve for the more
stately Richard, when he; dOnned the
satins and assumed athe courtly graces Of
Beau Brummel. However, Van by any
other name would still amuse, for his
mummery, though it is no very. high grade,
is yet effective and fhe could give Hostet-t
ter trifle of ten pounds or so and still
beat him out in, the laugh-makers' handi-
cap. -a& gs.,,

In Italy they prevent railway strikes by
the law of military service. Every able
bodied man in Italy belongs, If he is not
in the active arm, to the reserve. When
a strike occurs or Is, contemplated the
government simply calls out all the re-
servists working for the railway line in
volved, and orders them to go to work.
They always do, for it Is very serious
matter to 'disobey a military, order. We
prefer the Wabash method. -.
