Mapping a Career,

I'm going to run for Office.
And then life will be sweet.
No matter if I gain the prize
Or If I find defeat.
For after l have finished
That bit of public strife
I'll be prepared to start upon
The real work Of life.
I'm going to write a novel.
I'm going to build a play,
I'm going to be an actor
Spite of what the critics say.
I'm going to start a paper
Or run a magazine
And lecture in the leisure hours
That may happen in between.

Saving at the spigot.
From the New York World.

From the New York World.
Extraragant expenditure, the growing
deficit and the imperative need either of
economy or increased taxation did not
smite the consciousness of the House of
Representatives until that body came TO
the consideration Of a bill increasing the
salaries of certain officers Of high rank.
Tens Of millions and hundreds of millions
had been voted with something like en-
thusiasm in other directions, but when 1t
was proposed that first-ciass men in
first-class positions should be paid q few
dollars more than the present beggarly
wage scale there was Sirtuous indigna-
ton, there was a stimulation Of alarm
and there was a Wagging Of heads on
both sides Of the chamber that was por-
tentous Of wrath to come. Having swal-
lowed the camel OF profiigacy. Congress
will hardly help matters now by straining
at the gnat OF reasonable compensation
for services rendered. In the realms OF
finance and economy too many Of our leg
islators never get beyond the problems Of
a pay roll.

The Revolver Peril.
From the Buffalo Commercial.

Fr0m tbe BUn4I0 COmmcfCltI.
A young man waiting for examination
for admission to West Point was acci-
dentally and seriously wounded yesterday
by a shot from a revolver that another
candidate for admission was carrying in
his pocket. What earthly reason can
any man have for carrying around q
loaded revolver under such circumstances
in such surroundings? That the bad
habit Is prevalent among foolish youth
there can be no question. Ninety-nine
times out of hundred when the revolver
thus sported about is discharged 1t
wounds or kills some innocent man or
woman. The carrying of loaded weapons
Is one of the most frequent terrors that
the public has to face and fear.

Maryland.
m the Baltimore American.

There is no place in the world to COM
pare with the great water indenture Of
Maryland for residence. The counties
that are not upon the bay are hardly less
favored. 1t would be difficult to 60 wrong
in investing in lands in state that has
such a wide variety of attractions as
Maryland. Whether for farming and
trucking. for manufacture or fishing. for
the benefit of the unsurpassed cunning,
for waterfront residence or for any Of
the motives that prompt persons in Sc
lecting locations for residence, the state
Of Maryland Is foremost. The southern
Maryland counties, especially, have a
great future, and outsiders are quicker to
see the fact than most Marylanders.
