Ethics of Boiled Dinners.
From the Kansas City Times,


The statement that all of the ingredi-
ents of New England boiled dinners are
now on the market seems somewhat su-
perfluous. This excellent dish being made
up wholly of staples. the materials for
it's composition are practically always on
the market What is known as a boiled
dinner is quite too fundamental to feel
the effect of times and seasons. Meat.
potatoes, turnips, cabbage, carrots or
parsnips, and beets. IL you like. these
up an honest and orthodox boiled dinner.
with the imperative condition remember.
that they must all be cooked In the same
poland boiled "a-plenty."
There Is way, 1t is intimated, of MAX
ing boiled dinners at hotels by cooking
water, to be kept hot in cans placed on
the range. The meat--commonly corned
beef-is also boiled by itself. Then when
order comes down to the Kitchen for
boiled dinner the different vegetables are
placed on the serving dish with a slab of
meat on top.
And that layout, by the practice of
fraud and false pretense, Is palmed off
on the guest as a "boiled dinner, which
ii is not within gunshot,' or by a
jugful." What it is is a delusiOn and a
snare and any person who lets 1t go at
ciety.
boiled dinner. tender and savory
Through and through with the taste of
the meat. and not put up for looks, with
the vegetables in whole pieces and tasting
like Eastwood, is about good food as
can be brought on the table. But an mi-
tation boiled dinner is any amount worse
and more aggravating than an imitation
Of something that Is nothing like so good
when 1t Is real and right.

Bury the Wires.
From the I.eavenworth Times.

From the ISeavenwOrth Times.
The suggestion Of a correspondent that.
with wooden awnings now disappearing.
the next step should be an enforced order
for the removal Of the unsightly tele-
graph and telephone poles is timely
There is mighty little OF the saving grace
about wooden awning, but some OF
them were maintained in Leavenworth at
a considerable expense to the property
owners and were kept in good condi-
ton They are now torn down at a
loss, with the effect Of making decided
improvement In the appearance of the
streets. Their absence serves to bring
more than ever into prominence the
maze Of poles to which are attached
wires-poles that are planted without
respect to uniformity-poles that lean
this way and that. Every one of them
should come down In the business section
of the city, and there should be an ordi-
nance commanding that those which are
hereafter set up in the residential dis
tricts shall be confined to the alleys
There are abundant very practical rea-
sons for the issuance of an order COM
pelling the placing of all strung wires
in conduits. and the fact that such a
plan would improve the appearance OF
our streets may be considered as only
incidental. but that also is worth taking
into account.

DIR. FISK ELGlN,
Crime a Disease.
from the Columbus Journal.


1t is favorite theory that crime is 8
disease, and that when 1t comes to the
punishment, it should be regulated by
this view. Or. in other words, a penalty
should be sort of remedy or medicine
instead of a retribution.
The idea has met with a severe repulse
lately. in Paris, where the brains OF four
murderers have been examined and found
to be perfectly healthy. showing no alb
normal condition whatever. The con-
ciusion is that crime is not mental de.
:Cct. but is rather the outcome of cir
cumstance, of feeling. and the exercise OF
the will. all of which lie more or less
within ones own control Therefore,
guilt. really. actually, goes with crime
1t is not to be inferred from the doc
trine that punishment should be wholly
retributive; ii is rather to be inferred
that ii is to be remedial and cducative
since these methods would hardly apply
to the case Of an intellectual degenerate
We refer to the matter simply to cal
attention to the inquiry going on, and its
judgment. so far as Paris is concerned
that if crime is disease ii is not an
organic one.

Crafty Beggars.
rom the London Chronicle.

From the l/onuOu SHlOncie.
The statement of the Association for
the Retirement of London" that beggars
are on the increase in the metropolis re-
minds us that a hundred years ago there
we're so many picturesque beggars in
town that J. T. Smith. the antiquary and
draughtsman. was enabled to compile
and illustrate book on the subject This
he called "Vagabondiana. or Anecdotes
of the Mendicant .anderers Through the
Streets of London" At the present day
the beggar does not. as a rule. rely on
picturesque appearance. but studies the
part as thoroughly as any character actor
on the stage.
There is. for instance the distressed
gOverness who asks the way to distant
suburb. and whose sighs extract a bus
fare from a sympathetic listener. And
a familiar figure in central London is
the we'll dressed old lady whose rosy
cheeks and grandmotherly appearance
disarm suspicion, who. after a trivial
question: informs her victim that she has
unfortunately lost her purse. She has.
indeed. called on her solicitor, but he was
out and she does not know how she is
to get back to Richmond-"Thank you SO
much,' and with a courtly bow she van
ishes in the crowd.

How Lincoln Won the Horse Trade


Lincoln was a lawyer practicing in
the Illinois circuits at the time He and
a judge once joked each other about
horse trades. The upshot OF the matter
was that the two agreed to meet at a
designated hour the next day to make a
trade. The horses UP to the hour OF the
trade were to be unseen. There was to be
no Withdrawing from the agreement un-
der forfeiture Of S25. A few friends had
heard the bet made and passed the word
around. AS a result quite crowd was
on hand to witness the exchange.
The judge came up first, leading about
the worst-looking animal he had been
able to find. Where he had discovered
1t no one ever knew. He had not been
at the appointed place but a few minutes
when Lincoln came up, carrying a wood
en- saw horse on his shoulders.
THE crowd which had gathered was
hilarious at the sight. This was greatly
augmented when Lincoln sat down on his
saw horse. critically surveyed the judge 8

Well judge, 1 must say this is the
first time in my life l ever got the worst

Blighting the Scenery.

From the London Chronicle.
For years one of the loveliest views in
England--across the Avon gorge from

builder. 1t is good news that at last the
Leigh Woods and the prehistoric camp
are saved from desecraton. Bristol
generally produces its Canynge. it's Col

now it is Mr.. George Wills who has
brought the whole stretch OF land to be

$50 Years Between Brothers.
From the London Chronicle.

The mention Of the interval Of 175 years
between the death of Lady Sarah Napier
and that of her half -sister-in-law recalls
a still moro curious instance Of longevity
cited In Miss Louisa Courtenay's Notes
Of an Octogenarian." A witness in a will

conveyancer. was engaged was asked il
he had any brothers or sisters. He replied
that he had had one brother who died
$50 years ago The court expressed in
creduity. and documentary evidence was
produced in support Of the statement
This showed that the witness father
who married first at the age of nineteen
had son who died In infancy. The father
married again at the age OF seventy-five
and had son who lived to appear in the
witness box at the age of ninety-four. and
