Ayo now New York is to have conti nental celebration in honor of the inaugerat ion of Georgs Washington, as the first President of the American Republic. The intention is to make the celebration one of grel military and civic splendor. It is interesting to read the comments of the press on Mahone'a defeat in Vir ginia. Everybody seems gratified except old John Sherman. Tnis is net surprising, since Mahone was about the only man in the country tbat waa solid for Sherman, hence in kUIi2 off Mahone1 John Sherman's boom received Its death blow. Thibx never was a political party so utterly demoralized as the Republican party is just now. The New York election killed off Blaine and Sherman, and like Bret Harte'a Chinaman, "Sabsequent proceedings interest them no more." As for other leaders, tbey are numerous, too numerous to mention ; bat they are all snail and nickel-plated. If here and there one can be found with any genuine metal in him, he has hn pnnnhed or nickeled. Thzez is high authority for stating that twenty-five years ego the English raised three-quarters of the wheat they consumed, and looked abroad for the remaining one quarter. Under existing conditions, more than two-thiras of the annual consumption of wheat is of foreign production. It will be observed that of every six loaves of bread consumed by the people of England lour must be imported, and the tame is true of any other article of food. Now, then, if the Irish patriots could get possession of a half dozen fast sailing cruisers, each as the Confederates used to drive the American fhg from oceans and seas, they .could in a short time make the focd question in England one of special Interest to the rosy-cheeked, beef-eating John Bulls. Thx tobacco business of the country is steadily Increasing, as is shown by the increase of collections of 1387 over the fiscal year of 1386 which amounts to $2,200.70 i,G0, The increase of manufactured tobacco reached 14,511,550 pounds, and there was an increase in the snuff product amounting to 305.731 pounds. The number of cigars manufactured increased 227,406, 95G, and the number of cigarette 273,543,350. The amount of tobacco put on the mar ket for cosumption amounted to 109,937,713 pounds, and the snufl taxed for consumption amounted to 6,501,773 pounds. The number of cigars and cigarettes put upon the market for consumption waa, cigars, 3,778,305,413, cigarettes:i,5S4.503,20j;a total of cigars and cigarettes of 5,372,810,043. If there are those who believe that the use of tobacco is deliterious to health, they have a splendid array of figures to back up their theories. Tex conclusion has been reached that the Crown Prince of Germaay cannot long survive at the beat, and that to prolong his life (he whole, or part of the larrnx will hare to be cut away, hi disease being can cer. It may be that the old Emperor will, aft er all, survive his son, the Crown Prince. bat it Is not probable tbat either one of tbem'will rem in more than a year or two longer. FortnnaUly there is ready for the Imperial, Crown another Crown Prince, and as thu Crown Trince, number two, has a son who will be Crowu Prince, the divine-right-to-rule buslocsi is likely to go for ward in Germany f cr many years to come. The Jeflersonian idea that governments derive their iasi power from the consent of the governed.doesn't count in Germany, on -the contrary, the idea is that rulers are bom iu!ers. and derive tteir power to govern from star din;; armies. NEW FIELD FOR THS GATLING GUN. The Hartford Times or recent date informs the authorities of cities that the Oatlirg Gen Company has entered upon theruonufatilur of the "Police Galling," 'designed to fill the place in local UoAa that larger guca 11 upon the field of war." This announcement will doubtless result in giving the Gatling Gan Company large orders. It is said to be very useful for clearing of mobs from streets, in which cam the police force need not "go in" at all. fcThe "Police Gatling" is jast the thinr for quelling revolts In 'penitentiaries," and for the protection of buildings containing great amounts of money, and it can be taken on express cars to quiet "road agents," should they be disposed to help themselves to their contents. The Times describes this Police Gatling, and it is evidently a daiiy, and the probability is that the various cities in the country will order a few to keep the people quiet. We should regard it far more effective than any r4law and order hague'' that could 1e organized by Rev. Mr. Hunter, Judge Martindal and Pink Fiahback combined. Remarking that the "Police Gatling" lsja "terrible engine of defense and destruction," the Times says: It occupies a spvn oaly twjaty incbss long and six inches wide a lllliputiaa battery, the little steel barrel of which, only a foot long, will land every ballet Into a target at l.UOO yards, and will kill a nana mile distant, with its ouccs missile and musket charge of seventy grain of powder. For police nse tu suppressing riots, cne cr more of these gain may bs placed in a police wagon, mantedoo piaties permanently attached to the wagon body. Or for ne without any vehicle, the gun, which weighs only seventy-eight pounds, may be carried by a s'.rong man, a forty-pcuad tripod on which to rmuit it, by another, while a third carries the aeoroonitfen. Thene three mn, with their little Gitling would have all th? l3'.ructive force of a company of soldier, for the gun with its latest improvements In lock and feed roechanhra will dlschirg 9 shots a minute! Had these guns besd available in some cf the riot lu this country, they would have saved, in property l03es, their coat a thousand timw orer. We should think that the Czar of Russia would want every "Police Catling" C923Pftnj C92ld oanafActors la tfcj

next ten years. They must exert an exceedingly quieting influence. It is surprising that the British Government does not order a large number of them for Ireland, for certainly it Ls better to Gatling a man tüau murder him by the slow processes to which Editor O'Brien; is being subjected for exercising free speech under the provisions of the British constitution. It will be observed that one Gatling is equal to 100 men, or a whole company of soldiers, and can be operated by ihres me a. This being true, the Gatling come3 in as another labor saving machine, and as it can discharge C9Q shots a minute, or 33 shots a second, and kill a man at the distance of a mile, one of these engines of destruction is far superior to an ordinary company of soldiers, though perhaps not quite as pretty on parade. There would be less chance for plums3,epulets, flashing sword, and all else that pertains to pomp and parade, but for quieting people who express the wrong doctrines, ideas and opinions, it would act as an opiate of tremendous power.

IS IT BIDDING FOB VOTES? It happens that Fielden and 8shwab. wboee sentences were commuted, were the only two wage-workers among the convict. Fielden was a hard work'ng laboring man, and Schwab a hired writer. The rest were profesaional agita tors and loafers. Journal. Five of the Chicago Anarchists are dead. Two survive and are in the penitentiary. It does no good to lie about any one of them, living or dead. Governor OIesby commuted the sentence of two of ths Anarchiets. Ills reasons for savin tw and permitting four to hang are simpiy be neath "contempt. It is an exhibitloa of ssnillty fruitful of nothing but disgust. The Journal's paragraph lets the cat, in part, out of the bag, head or tall, as one may choose to regard It. It was designed, evidently, as a bid for the votes of the Anarchists to help the Republican party into power. The Journal says "Fielden and Schwab were the only two waze-worksrs among the convicts." Ozlesby command the sentence of the two wage-workers hence, what? This, doubtless, that all wage-workers ought to vote with the Re publican party. Fielden was a teamster; Schwab was a book-binder, but at the time of his arrest was a sub-editor of Spies' paper, the Arbeiter Zeitung. Adolph Fisher was a printer, foreman of tne news-room of 8ples' paper, hence a wage-worker. George Engel was a painter, working at his trade, hencs a wage-worker. Here there are two men, Engle and Fischer, who were as certainly wage-workers as Fielden and Schwab. Lingg may have been an agita tor, but was scarcely a loafer. Parsons and Spies were agitators, but not'loafers unless the Journal desires it to be under stood that the proprietor of a newspaper la a loafer more than that, Parsons was a printer and Spies an upholsterer. We doubt very much if the Journal's miser able attempt to give taffy to Anarchists or wage work eis will pay expenses, but it does let a little light in upon O'lesby's proceeding. Here were six men con demned to death for identically the same crime one crime neither court nor jary ever diecovered any difference in their guilt. Oglesby does make such a discov ery, and in making it he overthrew the verdict pronounced sentence of terrible severity upon court and jury. It does not matter what the old imbecile says to the contrary. It does not matter how loudly he protests that the court was right He did overrule the verdict the one verdict. He did find a place for "humanity," where the jury and the court were too blind to see tne point. He did modify one sen tence tbat touched all alike so as to permit two to escape, and he said he could do such a thing without "doing violence to public jestice." He could upset a verdict, he could eet aside a sentence, he could sir lie a fatal blow at the whole proceeding without doing violence to public justice, and now the Journal takes up this monstrous proceeding witn the evident Intention of making political capital out of it. It would say in tbe pretence of the ghastly spectacle, "Ix)ck, you, wage-workers ; Oglesby, a Rapublican Governor, has spared the lives of two wage-workers, and all you Anarchists should remember the favor and vote tbe republican ticket." The Journal points to Kpgel, the psiater, and to Fischer, the foreman of a news-room, and says tbey were not wage workers, but "loafers." In God's name, is it not time to be done with such tactics to secure rotes for the Repub lican party ? It would seem that there can be no lower depths of vulgar duplicity. It is doubtless the most shameful exhibition of partisan heartleaaness ever known. It will be interesting to note how the Journal's par graph will be received by the Anarch istpreesof the country. Two wag workers saved: two wage-workers hanged, "Icafers" two agitators, "loafers" hanged. If the Journal is going to boom the Republican paily on the strength of old Oglcaby'i action, it will be a new de parture. Proceed. THE ANARCHISTS. Governor Oglesby has reached a concln sion in the case of the Anarchists. It is, that Spies, Parsons, Eagle and Fischar hall te hanged, and tbat the sentence against Fielden and Schwab shall be com nr.ntd f A Iranriannmtnt fit 1 i fm T.tnai, saving taken his own life, is out of the way, and it does not matter, therefore, what would have beeu the action of the Governor in his case. As the ca3e stände, four of the Anarchists will be hanged to day. It Is useless Jo attempt any review o the caae. Thai has been done by the court?, and yet the discission will go forward. It will be asked, why commute the sentence of two? All were guilty, said the courfa, all were sentenced to be hanged by the courts, but all sayaTthe Governor, were sot equally guilty. Be that as it may, the courts laid all were sufficiently guilty to te hanged. The action of the Governor of Illinois presents the case of tbe Anarchists to tbe country in the worst possible form. Itsatlffies robedy. It puts the question to the world with feaiful emphasis Did the' Anarchists have a fair 'rial? Were they justly condemned to Jeath? Such interrogatories naturally, aye, Inevitably grow out of th action

-.harged that the seven Anarchists enteneed to be hanged were conspirators engaged in a conspiracy to resist the law, the officers of the law to the death. They were tried together. The crimes of each were the crimes of all. The courts discovered no distinction. The Supreme Court of Illinois confirmed every proceed in 2 of the lower court verdict and sentence. Governor Oglesby, however, finds that two of the condemned met, Fielden and Schwab, were cot guilty as were the others, or were less guilty, and this action raises the question, not only of a fair trial, an höhest verdict and a righteous sentence, bat the integrity, the acumen, the legal ability of the ' Supreme 'Court Of Illinois. If Governor Oglesby had let the law take lis course, or if he bad commuted the sentence of all, no such questions as we have suggested could have arisen. People might have been pleased or displeused, but the fairness of the trial and the righteousness of the sentence could not have beec called in question. The Governor could have Mid ; "The trial was fair, the condemnation just, bat it is my prerogative to exercise mercy." But now he says virtually, "I find the court, in saying all were equally guilty, made a mistake," and In saying that, the Governor says tie court errtd in its aettenc;, and an error In the s-ntenre is an error in tte Verdi?, ar.d error in the verdict is an error in the tritt aud It must be remembered tra. as they were all tried together, tbe crimes of each being the crimes of all, that an error in tbe case of one or two become an error in the case of all. Indeed, it was one ease, and the Governor having fonnd upon examination that two of tbe condemned men were not sufficiently guilty to be banged, could, with eminent propriety, have commuted ttre senten ee of all. We do not care to drscuur the act of Governor Oglesby in all' of its phases end bearings, aa it is now presented to the public. If he should furnish to the pree his reasons for bis action, he may bs able to vindicate its reasonableness, but at this writing it ocenrs to our mind that the action of tbe Illinois Hxicuteve seriously complicates a matter which from the first has been fruitful of reflections hitherto unknown in political, judicial and Industrial affairs in this country.

THE WORLD MOVE. There is no mistake about it, the world move;, turns on its axis and goes circling round the sun. Such is the law, auch is fate, and the world of mankind moves as certainly, cot always in a straight line, nor yet in a ahining circle. Its course is not infrequently zigzag, sometimes upward, often on a descending grade, but, on the whole, upward. The present generation stands on a higher plane than any former generation knows more. A man who has lived fifty years in the Nineteenth century knows more than all the antedeluvians knew, from Adam to Noah. Knows more than all the postdeluvians from Noah to Cbriatopher Columbus, knows more than any generation from the landing of the Pilgrims to the birth of Jay Gould. As a matter of course, we refer to a man fifty years of age, who has been able to keep up with the procession, to keep abreast of the times. It will require time to achieve complete emancipation from goblinism, felichism, and many other superstitions; but the world is moving away from such things, and no mistake. The faggot, the thumbscrew, rack and wheel have disappeared; wttcb.es are no longer hanged, and in a thousand ways the mind is becomsng eman cipated from ienorance and superstition a fact fruitful of the conviction that the world moves. Such is the law of progress, and "What fate imposes men must needs abide, It boots not to resist both wind and tide " In this connection, it is worth while to eay that lron-ciaa creed ana aogmas, which have been placed in the way of progress, are being moved out of the way. The churches that have been threatening direfat things to those who attended the itsrs find that their dynamite is erowlng constantly less effective, and there is a move ment all along the line to put a stop to the anathema business. Sensible peop'e recog nize the stage as an educator, as well as the pulpit and the school. The drama combines instruction and amusement, and is growing in popular favor. The church is finding it convenient to modify the explosive power of its censure; its fulminations have less thunder in them, and the pulpit is having something to say in favor of the Jdrama notably, Rev. Dr. Hollana, of the St. George' Episcopal Church, of Bt. Louis, one of the most learned and eloquent ministers of that church in the country. Dr. Holland recently preached a sermon, taking for his text ''John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say heLhathadevll." The eloquent priest (aid that the prevailing idea in many communities was to jude things by prejudice, and that such prejudices were often local, trivial or educational, and added: Thus, as delineated in the text, some said John the Baptist had a devil because became neither eating nor drinking, wbile others said tbat Christ, because he came eatirg and drinking, was aglu'tou and wine-bibber. Character oouldnot be judged in euch a way. It must be judged by principles of right and wrong. YistbA had a wider rtbge and the ultimate was tbe result. A tree must be judged by its fruit, which meant the result. The world was a drama in which nations and individuals played their part, and the whole worked out the conclusions of life to be coceumated in the world to come. He occe knew a Presbyterian who had never read a novel, so circumspect was he, and a theater appeared to be an abomination. Tbat man wis George Cable, the wellknown writer. Mr. Cable, who lived at New Orleans, bsd occasion to go North, finally attended a theater, and was very much surprised. The conclusion Mr. Cable reached was tbat he would judge theaters as be would judge other things, upon principles of right and wrong, as trod need. There were people of all inds, honest and dishonest, high and low, and they would be found in the theater as elsewhere. Tbe pure drama he considered tbe perfection of all arts. All the pas sions and poetry oi lite was illustrated by seeing then at work. Everybody was bound to admit tbat the drama played a grand role In the education of the race, and with it the stage reflected the character of the populace. The drama kept the people at their level, and showed them what tbey were: besides, it gave the best nf recreation. The purer as well as the baser things of life were presented, without which the world would have been ignorant. There the hero triumphed over he orpteesor, and the villain got his deserts. Ik ere was also delineatsd the fallacies and folJiee of all. If yon wanted o kaow wbat crime wss. see Macbeth. The story of Hamlet carried with it its own moral. There were a great many vole's I exhibited U las drama. itiml.'l !?

the good of society. Those who did not know the world by actual contest, learned it by the drama. It were folly to assume that nothing ob jectionable ever appeared on the stage and equally so, to eay that the pulpit is infallible. The point is, tbat the church recognizes the fact that there Is something good and wholesome in tbe drama, the stage, aui that is in the right direction. It demonstrates that the world of mankind is moving on an ascending grade, moving up to a higher plane. It is supreme folly to bombard the drama. It has its place in the grand army of progress, nor can it be dislodged. Dr. Holland tatia the correct view of the situation. The drama educates, elevates and amuses, and of all entertainments is probably the most useful and beneficent. To eliminate errors is in order. To croak is supreme folly. The worle moves in spite of cranks.

THE RESULT AND THE OUTLOOK. The Tuesday's elections demonstrate beyond cavil that Grover Cleveland will be the Democratic standard bearer for President In the campaign of 133. The result in the State of New -York settles the question beyond a peradventure. From this time forward there will be no talk in the De mora tic party favoring the nomination of any other distinguished Democrat for President. There will no discussions relatirg to probabilities nor possibilities. There will be no intimations of dark horses. The Empire State, Grover Cleveland's State, has indorsed the administration of Grover Cleveland, and this indorsement solidifies ths Democratic party throughout the coun try. The verdict of New "icrk nnifies the Democracy of Indiana. Here there is not a difisenting voice. Every dotxbt has disappeared. That there has been opposition to Mr. Cleveland's administration In the ranks of the Indiana Democracy,, it were folly to deny. That misgivings have existed relative to his leadership is well known, and yet from first to last there has existed a profound respect for President Cleveland. His honesty of purpose has never been questioned, and the doubts and fears- hon eetly entertained have been for months disappearing, and now they are gone ßone not to be revived. While the result of Tuesday's elections are of the most cheerful signiucance to the Democratic party, they have been fruit ful of the moat disheartening consequences to the Republican party. The party is now without a leader, aa it is without a policy. The Republican party looked to New York hopefully. It saw, or thought it saw, in the Henry George movement, in tbe fight between Fellow and Nicoli, and in tbe name of Grant, a chance for succese, for inspriation, for the renewal of its vital ity, for the indorsement of bloody-shirk-ism, of the sectional hate and a Repulican triumph in lS-s. Its dissapointment is overwhelming and demoralizing. It relegates Blaine to the rear and does not advanoe John Sherman's fortunes to tbe extent of a milligram or a millimeter. Blaine will hear the news in Europe and conveniently postpone his return. John Sherman's temperature will go nearer to zero than usual, and the field will have to be reraked for a man who can carry New York against Grover Cleveland. It will not be denied that tbe Republicans nursed pleasant hopes of success, in Virginia, but the overthrow of Mahone and Riddleberger redeems the grand old State from the insufferable stigmas which these men had heaped upon her name-, and says to the Republican party and its heresies avaunt. All things considered, the result of Tuesday's elections is satisfactory, and the outlook full of cheer. THE STATE MILITIA. Citizen Swldiers Keady to Be Thrown lato the Fie'd i bort "otic. Chs xr;o, November 10. "What preparations have you made against possible trouble as a result of to-morrow's exe utlon?" aiked a reporter of General Fitzsimmons, brigade commander of the Illinois State Militia. "I can outline no plans ' wai the Gen eral's reply. "It would not be policy for me to no bo. I will say, however, that 750 men in the Second regiment, and 500 in the First, can be thrown into the field for action at very short notice. Aslo, that 3ö0 men in the Third regiment, and 400 in the Fourth, can be added to the force'of theFirst andSecond regiments within probably three hours time. I do not anticipate any serious trouble." General Terry expresses the opinion that the State militia of the city will prove to be all that the citizens of Chicago could expect them to be. "Ibey are a responsible looking set of men," said he, "and what 1 have seen of them leads me to be lieve that they are In every way capable of doing good work." "1 deprecate the necessity for summary action upon the part of our troops and police in connection with troubles of this kind." eaid General Fitzsimmons. "but I tell vou tbat if these wretched enemies of the law. order and society give us cause for action, there will be no such leniency extended them as thtre has been in the past." "Will your men me blank cartridge or fire over the heada of the crowd in case of an order to Are?" The lines in the face of the gray-haired commander deepened a trifle as he knocked the ashe from his cigar.

FOLLIES OF FASHION.

Krt. Heart Wird Beesbsr'i Oprnioa of Hedem Feminin Dras, CbaagaS More Absurd Ml Unnatural Womea VJader Tyraney Aaciestt Cnstosns The Crete for "Style." (Copyrighted. 1T ) There are many who would rejoice if the1 chains Fashion weaves around her subjects could be made less galling, and the follies and absurdities which they do not fail to recognize a little lees obvious. They uw uvv utDUÄie to say mat mose wno are looking after the many evils that infest the land should give some thought to re form in faehion, or make some effort to ctfrtail its power. judging from the experience of those who neve attempted reformation in this evil, It would be "as the voice of one crying In the wilderness" wasted breath, time spent for naught. The pulpit and the press cave spoken on tins subject lor years. And what has been the results The changes in fashion are becoming more frequent, and certainly no less absurd and unnatural. Were it not for the title, a fashion maeaz ne might be takes for Punch or The Budget of i on. i et it is from tbe fashion plaits that the mediate plans her custo mers' dre.'tcs. Many who acknowledzstheir deiiie for a reformation in fashion, living in plaf-s houses, dire not throw 'od- themselves. Willing that others should make the attack, yet without the moral courage to caat ou their shackles, they stand at a distance, reedy to join the ranks of the Vi -tc i ions. Why not con -i -nce, good friends, with your own pen-'. u adornments? Throw aside friatets, 4 tich hide man? a beauttfnlbrow. Brc-'i the hair smoothly, coll it gracefully arc and, and let us once more see the head as God made it. Lay aside. for better uses, the yards of silk that no w sweep the street, the piles of lace and rib bons, bustles,- puns, and houncer, and then observe the difference between nat ural figure and one created by fashion-3ut if we tell those who are thus fettered that by an independent action in this matter tbey can do more than the best writers of the ege could accomplish, what would be tbe reply? Somsthiogas follows: "Ob. bless us! We wouldn't do anrthirg of that sort for the world. W should be happy to see a less expensive and more simple style of dress. It would be refreshing; and comforting, but we could never take the initiative. Sush a course would make us so conspicuous. No one person, even by making a martyr of herself, can effect any material reform. It must be done by a united, simultaneous effort." We have heard this reply often. We can not but think them cowardly argu ments, and, pardon cs, not truthful. Had all reformers reasoned thus, what would cow be the condition of the clvilizsd world? Fashion is a tyrant, and until women have strength of mind to defy her and henceforth be governed by true taete. there will be no release from her ab surdities. The old look upon the vagaries of modern fashion witb much reproof and scorn. But do not many of us who be long to that class remember oar grand fathers' prevaling costume. It is well to be perfectly honest when criticisms the customs and habits of others, and we can not truthfully say that the grandchildren are more absurd in their style of dress than were their grandmothers before them, although there la this in the favor of ancient costume, the styles were cot eo changeable as- we find them at the present time. Every thing new and of the latest importation as was eagerly sought after by the young. After marriage for few a years their devotion to Fashion continued unabated, and her laws were obeyed even when the riper judgment rebelled. The richly embroidered "stomacher," the "farthingale," "long bodice," "high-heeled shoes," and endless "trains." all differed from and surpassed anything of the kind that has been Been for many years, and this held our grandmothers in as rigorous subjection to faehion as their grandchildren yield to at tbe present day. For rxar.y years powdered hair was the n ling's t j le. Then little by little that was diecaided and the hair, rolled tightly from the brow, was gathered with the back hair over a eketeton pillow, and there held by long silver pins. From that, "With curls on curls they build th hair before. And mount It with a formidable tower; lint look behind, and then It dwindles to tbe pigivj kind." But it was noticeable in the more ancient times, and is greatly to the honor of our ancestors, that when the tender olive plants began to cluster about the home, when "The table grew too small, And the cottage wanted space." Fashion was no longer the dominant power and hef votaries discarded their allegiance to her more entirely than the old do now. After forty sometimes earlier there was little change in the style of their dress, their thoughts being centered more ou the care of their children than on their own personal adornment. As years passed on and their children and children's children ripened into maturity, the grandmothers even in tbe highest circle, while often richly clothed, continued to have their garments fashioned after the same mode they wore when first home jots began to take precedence of fashion. Unfortunately sometimes their subjection ceased at a period when the fashions were siagularly deficient in good taste, but nevertheless to the end of long Urea there was no change attempted in tteir attire, There teema to be a growing fondness for following Fashion to tbe very extreme, aherever ahe may lead. Would it not be wise for mothers to reflect a little more earnestly on the strength of the temptations that surround their young daughters, and completely absorbs the attention even of their little girls? Little girls! Where can we find them now? See children of six, eight, ten years dressed for some entertainment. Childish sports and amusements are quite beneath the notice of these overdreesed, stylish little ladies, now demurely taking their places for a genteel dance not with father, mother, sisters, and brothers, a home dance full of fun aid frolic and childish amusement. If ore would find little girls one of the sweetest things to be sought after, they most go far b:ck into the country, so far that they can find mothers not yet contaminated with too great love for fashions, but content to drees themselves and daughters neatly, yet with that simplicity which so beautifies childhood. There they are not seen at evening parties, allowed to Indulge in late hours and corresponding amusf ments such aa is depriving many city children of the pure, sweet life of young girlhood. When thus indulged they must lore half the advantages our city schools offer. Their vanity is aroused and ministered unto bj dresses too costly and elaborate for Utile gills. Intoxicated by the exitement of gsy society, and seeing their mothers derotei to such a Iff, they soon lote all te ieh fcr books or study, and cera'Lly for all amusement suitable for their :g, end such as will make them strong bd beaitby. 1' mothers will not heed these tekens tbey sre cheating their daughtert of solid bepVbesa, and burdening their own souls with a ein which tbey may not fully realise until old age reveals the fall extent of the iLlilZlti ILsf Lau tlwi Uieix okditm

Mr. Stebbins has been an admirable husband for ten years, and you will see, after reading what he suffered, that he is not cruel in vowing that he will never again go traveling with his wife. She is exceedingly domestic, and her trip a few days ago kept her away from her home bed over night for the first time in years. Stebbins was already tired when they took the sixsomething train for Philadelphia. A friend met him in the office of a Hotel next day, snd savs he neyer, - w a mia B!)-dis: coursged. Stebbins confided his troubles to tbe friend, and. thou eh the case is not Without parallel, it is of sufficient interest to tne general public to let it go. StebbiiT ya that the journey to Philadelphia competed iis exhaustion, and he was truly delated to be ushered, about 11 o'clock, into etant hotel apartments. Stebbins remained in the drawing-room to look at some evening vP81 nd smoke a restful cigar, while Pamtia unmade her toilet He spoke to her at if :43, 12:15 nnd 12:55. On all these occasions the lady was either brushing her hair or foldity? aome things, or searching In a toilet bag; and she would not let him go to bed before her for tear he would fall instantly asleep, leaving her lonesome and nervous in the stange place. At all events the poor man was taking his first nsp when Pamelia eald; "Oh, öar! I bave forgotten to wind my watcb," and out of bed she piled ; coming back Ehe asked him if he had put his couth medicine in his sacbel or his overcoat. Tryleg to think cf the locality os that bottle waked him completely, and the clock was strikioe U wLen be went to sleep again. At 3:15 Pamelia said that she must have a g'ass of water, and he fetched it At 3:30 she heard something picking at the lock and asked him about burglars nippers and how they used jimmies. That got him into a cold per epilation, with dinjuietiog conversation. At 4 she knew gas was escaping, and went around to examine all the burr ers. She came back to bed with her feet like cake J of i:e. At 4:10 she knew he had forgotten to bolt the drawing room door, and her eealsxin sacque was on the piano. Stebbins made that excursion. At 4:25 she sat up in bed and whijj ared in a curdling voioe that some one was concealed in the room ; she had heard strange sounds in the corner. Stebbins listened. It was heat going of? in the pipes, and he explained tbat to her. At 4:10 she knew a spider bad bitten her hand; she mast get some camphor, and she got up. Stebbins thinks that Pamelia was out twice duricg a little nap tiat he ha, but at 5 -.11 he was brought up standingly a hideous scream. There was a' mouse in tne room; she had seen it run up the lace curtain ; he could Eee it too, if he looked. It was an unusally large and ferocious mouse, that shook the lace curtain in a threatening manner. This discussion and ire consequent excitement kept poor Stebbins awake till six. The man was trying to get forty winks and prevent from having tbe headache next day, when Pamelia slid out to pull down a bl'nd, taking the precaution to cry"Shoo! shoo!" several times and rap on the floor with a slipper before she put her foot dbwn. At 7:30 Pamelia got up and began her toilet. About noon a fjierd found him asleep in a chair. "What I want to know," said 8tebbins, "Is bow I'm going to live If this thing keeps on during tbe six month of our proposed tour, with Pamelia in a sew room every night." A Tonne Anarchist. It eono da a little bit irreverent, but as it was told by a highly esteemed clergyman, and in Son day -school, too, it is presuamably tellable in print. A little girl welkin? in the public garden on Sunday with her mother, began to play upon the graee and waa iiistsntly restrained, to her cbaerin. "Wby can't I ran on the grass, mamma?" ehe exclaimed. "Brause the policemen will make vou go off if you do Don't you see the police man over there? Besides, it Is Sunday, and God doesn't want yon to play."

THE NEWS IN CHICAGO. Hew th Announcement of the Deeutoa f tueGoretaer was KeeeiTed. Chicago, November 10. When the new of tbe commutation of the sentence of Fielden and Schwab was received at the jail there was an extraordinary ecena of activity. The news was sent to the rela tives of all the condemned men, and in a abort time tbey began to arrive at the jail. The first of the women to come was Mrs. Schwab. Boon after Schwib was brought from his cell to the main office. Hie wife quickly advanced to him and, throw ing her arms about nis necr nurse into tears. Schwab returned the embrace In a calm manner aad soon the two were chatting quietly together. After this Spies and Fischer were brought fiom their cells and taken to the jail library. Eogel was brought to the private office of Mr. Folz. This was done for tbe pur pot e of allowing tbe relatives to take their last interview's. The first of the women to arrive after Mrs. Schwab was Mies Engel, the daughter of the condemned Anarchist. When the two met in-the private office there was an outburst of grief which it is impossible to describe. Father and daughter clung to each other and sabbed convulsively. Their conversation waa in German and listened to only by. Deputy Oleeen. Then came Mrs. Spies, the mother of AngusU She bad been waiting outeide for an hoar and a half. Her sobaouli be heard through the corridors of the build Id g. She did not stay long in the library with hr p, aad on her exit from tbe jail. Mrs. Fischer was aümiited. Rue went into tbe library and her laraeatatiana were heard above the tramp of tbe deputies who swarmed about the pla:e. Bit the crowning scene of all was the risit of Nina Yaa Zandt, the proxy wife of Spies. She waa conducted to the library by Deputy Oleeon. As ahe walked througW the main office she bfrt rayed no emolioa. The moment at which ahe saw August, bowever.completely changed herdemeanor. There was a look, then a gasp, and in a trice the lovers were in each others arms. A bevy of carious reporters and officers crowded up to the door of the library, bat it waa quickly ahnfby the deputy. Tae interview between the prisoner and his faithful devotee lasted neatly half an hour. What actually transpired will never be known to the world, but it was sufficient tobring a glimmer of tears to the eye of the old deputy. In half an hour the lovers had parted and the excitement of the entrance of Nina had passed. At 6 o'clock there was an inflax of deputy eöerifls to the jail. Men who had for years been serving civil writs and not bothering their heads about hanging, came in. They all wore heavy overcoats and in the right hand pockets of these were bulky objects, which to the eyes of the experienced, were plainly revolvers. Orders were giveu forbidding the eatrauce of any one not conr ected.with tbe press or tbe sheriff 'a office. Then some of the deputies went to eupper aud matten quieted down. A rumor was atarted to the effect Sshwab and Fielden would beremoved ta Joliet at C:"0 o'clock, bot Jailer Folzdecland he had no orders to that effect The Kew Moxle Craze Stapendeaa. Probably no one thing ever created such an excitement since the chemists have pronounced it incapable of barm, and the doctors have permitted it into their practice as an auxilary to medicine, and tbe publio have found the claims for it to be true, tbe thing has assumed the form of a craze. It takes nervonenees and the easily tired fcelirg from women like a food and does not lose its effect, and they literally swsrm after it. ThediuggUts sell it. Fell and Orjic His N'evk.
