' A Sensible Protest Against Draping Public Buildings iu Black. St. Paul Pioneer Frees. One of our national absurdities is the alleged “draping'’ of public buildings for thirty days with the insignia ot woe, after the death of some man high iu public station. Tho custom of putting on mourning attire, when applied individually, is one about which there is raueh discussion. That discussion can bo sensibly resolved only by saying that it is a matter of personal taste and foeling. Except where fashions are supreme even over death, the habit of dressing in black in memory of the departed is enforced only by the dictates of human naturo. A law that should require all relatives of a dead man to wear mourning for periods proportioned to the nearness of their kinship would violate d&cency, substitute form for feeling, and raise a mutiny. It would be more incongruous, it would bo far less silly than the executive order by which public building are kept •‘decorated” a good part of the time. As one walks up Wabasha street he notices that from the roof of the handsome granite building where the postoffice and custom house are domiciled there hang perdant three lank and disconsolate streamers of white and black. Against the massive walls they look like mere dirty shreds of some once respectable garniture. The white is dusty, and stained, and disreputable. The black is as faded and lustreless as poverty. Altogether, these three shamefaced strands remind one of a discarded shoestring and a soiled corset lace, sent to keep company in the dnst-henp. And the observer of today has to stop and think some time before it occurs to him that this “draping” is meant to remind him that Mr. Hendricks died some weeks ago. What a formal folly it all is! Mr. Hendricks met the common fate. He died, and is still mourned loyally by those to whom he was dear. Tho world gave him his due of praise, and then moved on as it ever does about its business. Had he been only a little less than a demi god, instead of merely a reputable Democrat, that would have been all. Nothing in nature stops to remember yesterday. The Nation is not inhuman because the debates in Congress ore more to it than the eulogies lately spoken at Indianapolis. The sky will not turn black nor tho sun grow red.’even though the noblest of earth had passed away. And rain and sunshine still pitilessly spoil the skimpy odds and ends of inuslin that flutter from all the public buildings of the country. For exactly thirty days this mummery must continue, and then tho public may forget at its pleasure. Now, what a humbug and absurdity all this is. It, may be well enough, while he whom we can call the Nation’s dead is lying ir. state, while busiuess is wholly or partially suspended, and while public men are speaking eloquent words of tribute about the unburied body of hero, or patriot, or statesman, or politician, as the case may be, to deck the edifices of the Nation with formal symbols of bereavement. It will not add ono tear or take away one pang, but it can display a decent re spect which nations as well as individuals must observe. But in the name ot common sense let the world go on its usual way after that. The significance of mourning is not tor the one who looks at but for the one who wears it. The mother does not care to publish to the world that she has lost her child. It is because her own heart is bereft that she draws about her the garments of the night. No people can possibly thus long mourn a citizen, however eminent. A public is not a private tie. No man had greater honor than General Grant, yet public mourning for him now would be a faree. So is that for Mr. Hendricks, so must it be for the brightest and test of the Republic, fit would be a reform consistent with common sense to direct that hereafter the draping of public buildings should be removed tho day after the funeral of him in whose honor it was put on. A decent and general respect would thus be signified. The public’s sense of fitness would bo spared the infliction of those tatterdemalion bits of black and white which must still adorn our public building* until the thirty days specified by executive order shall have filled the formal tribute to the dead. A Thrifty Canadian Groom. Montreal Letter. A Montreal hackman took a couple to church to be married, aud then slipped off to earn an extra fare, but was met on his return by a demand from tho bridegroom for the money he had earned while away. A policeman beiug at hand, the dutnfounded coachman handed over the cash rather than get into a lawsuit, and drove the newly-wedded couple home. A Sympathetic Custom. New York Mail and Express.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 26, 1885.

A RECONSTRUCTION EPISODE. A Benevolent Gentleman Who Tried to Aid in the Development of the South. Atlanta ConMitution. If there was ever a man who was ali dazzle and dash, with a bewildering affluence of glare, that man was. C'aptaiu Blitzer. When the gallant Captain bore down upo Atlanta in the earlier reconstruction days, everybody stood aside to give him elbow-room. Blitzer suddenly bobbed up at my desk one morning and introduced himself as a retired army officer from Pennsylvania, who had decided to settle bore, invest his capital, and grow up with the place. “Here are a few testimonials,” he said with a grand air. I glanced at tho documents. They weighed about five pounds. Biitzer spread them out on my desk, and I saw letters from clergymen, teachers, editors, Governors, congressmen, generals, capitalists and the Lord knows who. It was the most astonishing array of recommendations and.letters of introduction that any one man was ever burdened with. Then I took a look at the Captain. He was a small man, of stylish hearing, faultlessly dressed, and the indescribable glitter in his black oyes, and the sparkle of his diamonds impressed me. Everything about the man shone with lustre. His waxed mustache and his polished boots made my eye3 blink with a wearied feeling, and several nie-lals and badges on his breast gave my little sanctum the appearance of being involved in a general conflagration. It is needless to say that Blitzer succeeded in getting a good local notice from my pen. Ho was equally fortunate at tne other newspaper offices, and commenced his career here under apparently tho most favorablo auspices. A week or two later I met the Captain, and casually asked him if he had engaged in any enterprise. “Oh, yes,” said the shining midget, “Ha, ha! Got a good thing on foot already.” I ventured to ask the nature of it. “Well, it is this,” said the Captain; “1 have circulated -among the colored citizens, and I have organized about a thousand of them into the ‘Holy Brotherhood of the Republic.’” “Bog your pardon,” I said in my mystification, “but I can’t see what that has to do with business, and investiug your capital and all that.” “You don’t!” replied the Blitzer, with a cheery laugh, “Why, here’s the point.' - There are millions of acres of good public lands in the Bouth. lam going to petition Congress to partition out these lands among the members of tho ‘Holy Brotherhood.’" “Well, what good will that do?” Blitzer looked disgusted. He had no patience with my obtuseness. “I will tell you this much,” he said; “the members pay me $2 a head for initiation, and then I shall levy assessments on them when the proper occasions arise.” “But, sir ” “It's all right,” continued Blitzer rapidly. “I have almost unlimited influence at Washington. You saw my testimonials, you know. And even if - 1 fail w secure anything for the ‘brotherhood,’ the money paid into my hands will be applied to carrying out this grand object” Without reply I walked off. Tho mask had fallen. My enterprising immigrant, my capitalist, my developer was only a common carpetbagger after all, and a carpet-bageer of the vilest, meanest grade. Some months later my attention was called one night to an infernal huliabalo on the street. I looked out and saw, it seemed to me, the entire population of Congo parading through the town with onnds of music, torches, transparencies and banners bearing the device, “Iloly Brotherhood of the Republic.” Prominent all along the line, now heading the procession, now straightening the ranks, and again charging the rear to drive the lagging members into place, was a dashing rider, wearing a plumed hat and medals, decorations and rosettes without number. He wore a crimson sash and flourished a bright sword. It needed but a glance to see that it was Blitzer, tho grand master of the “Holy Brotherhood.” A tew inquiries rewarded me with the information that Blitzer had found it necessary to allay some growing dissatisfaction in his party by getting up a grand torchlight procession. This involved a levy of a dollar a head, but it was cheerfully paid, and the grand master regained his popularity, Ailing his pockets at the same time. How much Blitzer made out of the “brotherhood” 1 never heard, but it was several thousand dollars. When things began to waver he resigned and got out of the society with flyin® colors. It went to pieces after that, and the majority of the members firmly believed that they failed because their old leader found it necessary to leave them. About a year after meeting this spectacular fraud, an old negro preacher came to me one day, and laying down a printed card, said: “Boss, is dis any good?” The card contained a table of mortality. It was such an affair as is used by many life insurance agents. “No good in the world,” I replied; “why?” “Den 1 frows up do job,” said the old darky. “Dat Capen Blitzer, ho done got me an’ a dozen udder niggahs sellin’ dese keards ter do black folks atter dollar apiece, an’ we gits 10 per cent, fur sellin' dem.” “It 1 8 a swindle.” I said, “and you'll get into jail the first thing you know.” “Tanky, Marse Boss,” said the victim of misplaced confidence, “Ise done done wid and& business.” There were so many other rascally carpetbaggers, just at this time, stealing land by the square mile, stealing railroads, stealing public offices, and whirling every material thing of value out of sicht in a perfect cyclone of spoliation, that Blitzer did not come in for his full share of exposure and denunciation. But his time came at last He entered politics and became a candidate for office. Then the press ventilated him He was snowed under by such Alpine avalanches of snowy ballots that we lest sight of him altogether. Not long ago I spent a few days in a quiet Northern village, where the people retained the aggressive freshness of their Puritan grandfathers. They were all good people, inhumanly moral, and sternly determined to enjoy their own rights, at the same time preventing everybody else from doing the same. As J. wore a slouch hat and a long-tailed coat, and received a daily mail from the Bouth, these people looked upon me as a monster. The novelty of the thing pleased me, and I aired my opinions freely. “We may be mistaken,” said the oldest inhabitant to me one day, “but our pastor knows the South as well as you do. He bad his property destroyed by a mob because he was a Republican, and he narrowly escaped with his life. The recital of big wrongs has produced a lasting impression upon our people. You should hoar him preach, and, by the way, there ho is now, the short man across the street, going into the postoffice. ” I looked. I rubbed my eyes. There could bo no nvistake. In that sleek parson, with the rotund paunch, with the glittering eyes, tho white choker, the shining boots and the subdued general shimmer lightening up the clerical garb, I recognized the man. It was my carpet-bagger, Blitzer! Exposure will induce colds, throat diseases, consumption, etc., all of which give warning by a troublesome cough.
