they call it Little Old New York
He points to the thirty million dollar
court house so tall and grand the
fact that poor old women must scrub
it for beggar's pay. The funds Of the
city are running low and many work:
men have been forced to receive a cut
in pay while millions are being spent

not find a better name.
The halo OF Anthony Comstock de.
scended upon the head of John $
Sumner, who is B. mild hammered
young man with a burning purpose
Comstock was dlstinguishable by his
side whiskers and stern manner
Sumner is very meek looking but he
has started on the trail Of vice in o
sensational manner.
His first coup was to; arrest the
editors of a magazine called the Pa
risienne which is located as far as
Fourth avenue is from Paris. 1t is
written mostly by a Bohemian crowd
that gets the ideas from the French
table de hotes.
One sad incident in connection with
the vice arrests is that it immediate.

sale of the publication. 1t secures
advertising that 1t could not secure in
any other way.

A Mess of Pottage.

A Mess OF fOCCaRe.
(Morgantown Post-Chronicle.)
It takes a very long time for
some people to learn from expert
ence. About forty years ago, the
state Of Texas gave three million
acres Of land to an English corpora
ton in exchange for a state capitol
building. The building has been de-
teriorating in value ever since. The
land, however, has been increasing In
value. Originally 1t was estimated
at fifty cents an acre. Last year less
than one-third of it was sold for
$~4,736,00O. The other %two-thirds Is
still held by the corporation. 1t was
a clear case Of selling the birthright
OF the people for a mess Of pottage,
and a very poor quality Of pottage

Eggs should be gathered once a DAY

eggs should be kept in a cool, dry room
away from bad odors and dust.
Collecting Eggs on Cream Routes.
Eggs too small, checks and weak
shell, dirty eggs or eggs from stolen
nests or that have been set on should
be rejected. These eggs should be
used on the farm as they are sure to
iniure the trade. You cannot build I'd
a first class trade and accept this grade
of eggs.
Eggs received by the cream route
wagon should be graded into whites
and browns. One case may be used
for the whites and one for the browns
or one end the case may be used for
whites and the other for browns.
These eggs may be placed in car

may be obtained from the Continental

DON'TS FOR THE MOVIES.

When you go to the movies don't
put both your feet on the back of the
chair in front of you. If you don't
know what to do with your legs. leave
them at home.
Don't whistle an accompaniment to
the tune played by the orchestra.
You may have a talent in that direc-
ton but no one else thinks so.
Don't sing or hum the air played
Remember you are not a Caruso.
Don't keep time with your feet on
the floor. You are not at a corn
shocking.
Don't read aloud what you see on the
screens. Blind people do not attend
the movies, and those who do can read
for themselves.
Don't make audible remarks about
the characters on the screen. People
might think it vas the first time you
ever saw one.
Don't loudly haw haw at everything
you see. You might be considered an
escaped Iunatic or an idiot.
Don't be ill bred and make rude re-
marks about the pictures or people in
the audience. If they don't suit you,
there are several exits.
Don't bring your babies to the
movies unless they know how to be-
have. The best place for them is at
home.
Don't gigg1e and talk all the time
the pictures are shown. It is a sure
sign of Stiffness, n even idiocy.
Don't keep a hal on with a big feath-
er dangling at TIE top. The man or
woman behind you is quietly consign-
lip you to uncomfortable realms,
though he is too polite to tell you so.

we will do everything in our power
to acquit him in public estimation of
every charge in respect to attempting
to collect the repudiated bonds of this
State, except his connection with the
South Dakota bond suit. Assuming
that Mr.. Butler is responsible for the
foregoing advertisement, the case
against him with respect to the bond
charges is, in our opinion, absolutely
complete. 1t matters not if the South
Dakota bonds which he helped con-
coct a plan with P~ettigrew, of South
Dakota, to collect we're issued under
Cnority of an Act of the General
sembly of 1866 instead of the General
Assembly of 1868 and 1869, they were
nevertheless bonds which his State
lad refused to pay, except in a com
promise of twenty-five cents on the
dollar. Whether the State ought to
nave paid these bonds or not, is not the
question. Mr.. Butler, while holding
high commission of North Carolina to
a seat in the United States Senate as
her representative, planned with Pet
tigreW, to have a part of these bonds
turned over to South Dakota and his
own State sued by the State OF South
Dakota for their collection. We could
use no language too severe to con
denim such conduct in him, regardless
of the merits of the controversy be-
tween Shaffer Bros. and the State
over these bonds. He turned upon his
State while yet holding it's high COM
mission to represent it in the Senate
Of the United States. He helped to
concoct a scheme through which they
won the suit and forced the collection
of these particular bonds. The whole
scheme and purpose moving him is un-
blushingly set forth and admitted in
the advertisement appearing over his
n other signatures as an adver-
tisement in a great New York newspa-
pei.
We will make no apology to Mr.
Butler in respect to this bond contro,
versy until we are convinced that The
New York Post, which newspaper, Dy
the way, is universally conceded to be
ore of, if not in fact, the newspaper o.
highest character in the city of New
York outraged him when it inserted
this advertisement above his name.
He ought to bring his action against
the newspaper publishing the adver'
tisement if said publication was no
authorized.
