comnendable work of reform to the latter. We have never been able to discover any reasonable ground for the hypothesis that a traveller likes to sit on a blazing red chair in the midst of collection of grooves and niches' and gaze down vista of stuffy drap- cry. The up to date youth who per suades the man in charge to let him sit on a camp stool in the baggage car especially on fiery summer day, may be guilty of causing the company S rules to be violated. but h4 generally gets more for his money than his father who pays $2 for the privilege of being submerged in plush.
 If those who are responsible for the character of the vehicles of transpor- tation would universally adopt and ad- here to a high standard of simplicity, putting a premium on meagernsss rather than profusion. they would find that they had filled a long felt want New York Tribune

PHILADsLPHIA's BIG HOTEL.

When the big new Hotel Bellevue Stratford, now nearing completion, is thrown open the coming summer Phil adelphia will boast the possession of the largest, the costliest, the most lux urious hostelry in in the United States, except the ldorf-Astoria. No other hotel is nearly so well equipped. The Bellevue -Stratford contains:
 A theater more richly decorated than any now in Philadelphia.
 A ball room big enough to serve as a parade ground for a regiment of sol diers
 A promenade 125 yards long PTS feet higher than the lobby, and from which every corner of the city may be viewed.
 A banquet hall with a capacity for seating 1,500 persons at once.
 Twenty eight dining rooms.
 A dozen or more big kitchens.
 One thousand sleeping rooms; none so small that three double bedsteads cannot be placed side by side in it.
 Four hundred ordinary baths, in ad- dition to Turkish and Roman and Gre elan baths
 A hundred appliances for the we'll being of the guests and the care of the hotel never seen in any hotel before. - Philadelphia North American.

HomeIy Truth From Texas.

A Texas philosopher who has seen the vanity of political life thus advises the populace of Texas:
 The man who raises corn and sor- ghum for his hogs will come out bet ter than the man who raises his hat and voice for the candidate, for it is ten to one that the candidate will not turn on his heel for you after his aspirations have been appeased."
 It is the experience of every news paper, of course, big as well as little, that the oficeholder is a frail reed to lean upon. Men of very ordinary abil- ttiesa and obscure surroundings, and also men of ability and prominence, put without strength with the people, are picked up and boomed, and politically made" by the newspapers. But as soon as they are made" they suddenly -eonclude that everything was due to their own wonderful genius, and they feel rather hurt that the world was so slow in discovering them That is why all politicians are regarded with good -humored and cynical indifference inside newspaper offices, and it explains why the average newspaper writer re- fuses to stand in awe of any oficehold- CT who is doing his brief stunt on the public stage.
 But it would be a sad, sad world should this Texas mans campaign of disillusion lead to the enlightenment of citizens in general.

DIVORCE IN ITALY.


 The bill allowing divorce in Italy has been defeated with such decisiVeness that the question is looked upon as for the present settled. The country is not prepared for it." as the champions of divorce describe the situation. The contest was in the main test of strength between the clerical party and it's opponents, but not entirely If some other test had been presented. the Liberals might have made a better showing, for the agitation in favor of divorce brought out large amount of feeling that was quite independent of the church. Thousands or virtuous and contented Italians were shocked or de- pressed by the proposal to permit di- yorce, merely on the side of their sentiments without any references, to their creed. Even making these al- lowances, however. the church has un- doubtedly gained a victory and strengthened her position. The new pope, whose liberality at first gave fears to the stricter clericals, has apparently been a source of strength in at least one direction, by diminishing the en- thusiasm of the opposition. The church moves, but it moves slowly. and sei- dom, indeed, can any outside force visibly affect its rate of motion.-Col- Hers Weekly.
