Grnnd Jury Condemns.

In making It's report to the court the United States grand jury called attention to violation of law, it is alleged in professional witnesses being used. The report is rather salty. Judge Jones before discharging the jury took occasion to express the be- lief that the violation was not general and that the offense may be of long standing, one that has been corrected some time.
 The statement is made that true bill was returned by the grand jury against one commissioner and the ar rest will be made at once. According to the grand jury quite a number of unfortunate men had to come to Bir- mingham to court and suffer on testi- mony of these professional wit nesses

Mr.. Thurber,. as the conversation
Stacked. He thought he would play q
funny joke on his family, so a day or
SO before the holiday he bought one of
these candy boxes made in imitation OF
a common firecracker. He secreted this
in the pantry. where ne thought it
would be safe.
But his little son, about eight years
old, discovered the firecracker. and
also discovered that it was filed with
candy. He helped himself to the con-
tents and finally. finding the box empty,
he made way with it, and substituted
real cannon cracker.
-Four of July came and the head of
the family, smiling broadly at his ap-
preaching joke, came down stairs and,
placed his big f1recracker in the middle
OF the breakfast table. Then regardless
of his wife's expostulations he touched
match to the fuse, never thinking but
what 1t was the candy box on the table.
His son and heir astutely vanished
from the scene about this time. In
about thirty seconds there was an ex-
plosion that wrecked a once happy
breakfast table. and one hour later the
worst spanked boy in Detroit had Sob
bingly confessed to an irate father why
the joke had failed. Milwaukee

S3ILL RICH.

We the people are still richer than
mud, but it is rather painful just the
same to notice that January's business
at the national treasury closed with a
deficit for the month of $6,2160OO, and
for the seven months ending yesterday
of the fiscal year SIS, 5000. Last year
at this time there was a surplus of
$1.574 900, in spite of an excess of ex-
penditures over receipts in January of
nearly $f,Q00,000. Because this small
surplus on February /, 1904, was work.
ed up to $14,O00O0o, exclusive of Pan
anna payments, by the end of the fiscal
year, 1t is assumed that the remaining
months of this year will show an equal
" favorable balance. and that the de-
felt on June 80 will stand at from &c.,
100000 to s2O00O,OO0 The estimate of
the secretary's annual report was $751;
900, 1000.
One thing which makes yesterdays
showing look bad is that the Central
Pacific payment of nearly 100000,
which has already been received. viii
not reach the books until February /;
it is credited sometimes on January 81
and sometimes on February 1. So there
is quite a crumb of comfort. Three
million is asfafr-sized crumb, even in

4 sPEhCm Br PREMIER TISzA.

The overwhelming defeat of the gov
eminent In Hungary the other day
lends new interest to the speech deliv-
cred bp Premier Tisza before Liberal
meeting in Budapest. He said that the
principle of common customs territory
could not be saved if the economic re-
lationship of Hungary to Austria We're
to be regulated by too many provision
al arrangements. The uncertainty due
to this state of things created desire
for more stable conditions and had en-
couraged a belief that these could not
be attained so long as Hungary re-
manned in partnership with Austria.
This belief was the stronger because
the supporters of economic dualism had
not been able to proclaim all the adj
vantages which Hungary derived from
the system for fear of furnishing argu-
ments to Austria while the new COM
pact was being negotiated. Now, how
ever, the compact was concluded and
could not be modified. Therefore, he
might say that though Hungarian in
dustry would develop more rapidly in
a separate customs territory it would
develop at the cost of impoverishing
agriculture, the backbone of Hungary,
BY depriving it of it's foreign markets.
Or, if foreign markets are retained for
Hungarian agricultural produce under
a separate customs system, this could
only be done by exposing Hungarian
industry to German, French and Amer
lean competition, whereas under the
dual system Hungarian industry was
exposed to Austrian competition alone.
1t will be interesting to see what
happens now. s.... ....--.

But there is a reason, reason 500
years old. Well have our universities
been charged with mediaevalism. We
must go back to the 18th century for
the reason; 20 the universities of Bolo-
gna and Paris. to Montpelier and Mod
ena, Salamanca and Oxford These an
Client universities were chartered COM
munities like municipalities. BY royal
and papal DEGREES their students could
not be touched by the municipal au-
tborities.
This was necessary. There was a
great interchange of students from ma
ton to nation. The students at all the
universities were nearly all foreigners.
In those feudal times one didn't have
to go many days walk to be a foreigner.
At the University of Paris he was a
foreigner if he came from pretty nearly
anywhere but the Isle de France, the
realm which the King ruled as Duke
as well as King. Like other university
traditions, this has come down through
the ages.
The student is a privileged character
always was. Was so constituted by
law once, is still so constituted by a
custom almost as strong as a guarantee
of law. The principle. amounting to
extraterritoriality. which was necess-
airy for the safety of the foreign stud
ent in the medieval university has
lasted like the vermiform appendix,
until it has no reason, no use that con-
temporary man can see. Yes, my dear
young college friend, when you insist
upon certain immemorial students
privileges you are alleging charters
of Frederic Barbarossa, of Charles the
Seventh of France, of Pope Plus Sc
cond. 1t is the gracious favor Of these
antique worthless which allows you to
stop theatrical performances. to make
night hideous, destroy property, do
personal violence, unhindered, unpun-
ished. What would Plus Second think

RFoIPRocI1Y WI1n CANADA.

The talk about reciprocity with Cam
ada continues, but in Canada it seems
to be taken for granted that United
States public sentiment is opposed to
the renewal of a reciprocity treaty with
the Dominion The treaty which was
i'm force from 1854 to 1854 was termin-
ated by the United States. It worked
as such treaties always work when
they are made between countries en-
gagged in producing or manufacturing
products of a similar nature. One side
or the other to- the agreement gets all
the benefits. During the ten years of
reciprocity with this country, Canada
enjoyed a remarkable degree Of pros
perity. Indeed those ten years were
the most prosperous in her history. If
the United States had enjoyed simil-
ar experience, the treaty would prob
ably be in force to-day, but instead,
this country got the little end of the
deal, and from 1864 to the present time
has been content to do business with
Canada without any special arrange
rlents with the Dominion. Conse-
quently it is taken for granted in Can
ada that any movement toward a re-
newal OF reciprocal relations must
come from the United States. On the
other hand, we have the solemn decla-
ration of leading members Of the Can
adam Parliament that that country is

D0A,r Her THINK ALrK n.

Awhile ago, when women began
to stick their pretty heads up above
the law and the gospel, there was much
fear on the part of those opposed to
such sticking up that the women would
all think alike when they were enamel
pated. and would not have that diver
sity Of opinion which is desirable in a
free country. But that fear has not
been justified. Women are showing
very decided differences of opinion
concerning the very matters in which
it was supposed they would be most
unanimous. For instance, there is a
woman's organization which is quite
influential at Washington which OPP
poses the w. G.. T. U. in the govern
ment canteen contest. This is the
Woman's Army and Navy League,
made up Of the female relatives OF
army officers and men, who take the
ground that they know more about the
influence of the army canteen, through
its effects upon their husbands, broth
ers and fathers, than any other organ
ization Of women know. They live at
the forts and in the camps and they
have opportunities to know which
others cannot have and they agree
with the officers and most of the intel
ligent army men that the conditions
with the canteen are better than with
out. At the same time they are ready
to give credit to the Woman's Chris
tian Temperance union ''for doing
wonderful work in the country at
large, but" they say, Eve believe that
they do not understand conditions in
the army, and are, therefore. not as
capable of advising in this matter as
they might be in Others
This looks reasonable, as all the
things which women say do.

natural products into this country,
without making a single concession TO

that if we want reciprocity We must
practically have it on canada's own
terms.
Perhaps we don't need reciprocity
with Canada. We certainly don't if it
isn't going to be profitable for us.

What real estate on Fifth avenue in

tie club house on that avenue twenty
years ago. Tt was encountered by a

awaited itself of an opportunity to sell
its house at good price, far above
the mortgage, and with the money thus
obtained it bought a lot of land farther
up the avenue and built a new club
house, free of all debt. This house has
been occupied by the club until now,
