LONDON, July 6.-Although de-

Jeffries-Johnson fight, the London

excuse the disorders.
The usually anti-American Globe,

ings following the fight, says:
Our sympathy runs more to the

are offered.

When it comes to getting ones money worth,
we are all pretty wide awake. But when we come
to giving the other fellow his moneys worth that s
a different story. The Justification of weights and
measures about which we have heard so much has
been an agitation looking TO getting moneys
worth. 1t has all been figured out in the high cost
of living that if we pay "a cents for pound that
weighs only u ounces, we are not paying "a cents
a pound, but 80 cents pound for the article We
are being "bunked" "buffaloed' and ''mooched' for
cents pound. That is what we call heinous
offense 1t gets out goat whatever that means
But when we hire out to do job, whether that job
be editing paper digging a ditch, not
so particular to give full weight and measure to
see that the other fellow is not cheated out of
ounce or two of the pound of effort which he buys.
railroad witness before the interstate COM
MERGE commission recently testified that his COM
pany had increased the wages of certain of its en-
ployes all of % cents day within ten years, and
as a result was now getting less efficient service
than it got in the old days before the increase.
That company certainly is deserving of the SYM
pathy of an agitating world Why, if they IN
creased wages another 25 cents, the workers prob
ably would demand that carriage be sent for them
to take them to and from work in the mornings
and evenings. Those employees are not doing the
right thing by the company. They are giving short
weight and short measure of effort But whether
the railroad employees have learned to give less for
the money they receive from their experience of
getting less for the money they give, or vice versa
is problem which must be solved by some future
economist.

the exceptional excellence of the editorial page of

general dress and appearance Of that meritorious
Catholic weekly, says: Ever Archdiocese of the
United States ought to have its own official organ
as we'll conducted and as brilliantly edited as the

1t was said of Meyerbeer that his happicst in

down the window panes of his study. 1t is posi-
bic That storms may have the same effect upon
others than Meyerbeer At any rate our editorial
brother Of Ike East inspired when he emphat-
ically declared that every Archdiocese etc. etc"
Some Inspirations are, like Meyerbeers more SEN

THE GREEK HERO.

''Say, fellow, where did you get them pajamas"
That was the rather rude question directed TO
the Grecian gentleman who has been in the city
for week two, parading the street in the classic
garb of the ancient Grecian nation by a small boy,
which remark directed our attention to him.
DisdainfuIy the Greek hero blnked not an eye,
nor cast one furtive glance toward the urchin who
in common with the rest of humanity on the street
stopped and gazed at him. The Greek walked On
his head erect and nostrils distended that he might
breathe more deeply of the Salt Lake atmosphere
He walked ON, we say, with measured steps, cover
ing about three feet each stride in order to show
the freedom of bodily activity furnished by his
garb. His great right arm, not hampered by the
conventional coat sleeve, swung in a mighty sweep
His classic features were not animated by d smiIe
instead, the stern and sturdy eyes looked far ahead
the firm lips and finely nodded jaw were set. ms
hair, done up in a becoming wreath about ms
shapey head, intensified his classical features
Surely ancient Greece meier produced more per-
feet physical specimen, or at least one who at
traeted more attention as he walked along the
streets than this.
1t doesn't take much to make some people
happy. The garb of super in Julius Caesar
is sufficient.

Early last week all these gentlemen addressed, at
Buffalo, n. Y, the biggest demonstration, both
to numbers and to results, that has taken place
since Parnell s memorable mission III 1S7y-SO. BY
a singular and happy coincidence, the Irish CON
vention assembled in Buffalo, where thirty years
ago the first great meeting which formed the Irish
organization was convened. The delegates. at the
recent Buffalo convention, assembled from the lead
ing cities of the United States and Canada pledged
their united support to the Irish Parliamentary
party, and promised to raise $15OO0O for the cause
