A NEW STORY.
"Sergeant Croesus," by Capt. Chas. King, Will Begin in Next Week's Mail. The Mail will Dext week, begin the publication of the latest story by Capt. Chas. King, entitled "Sergeant Croesus." It is one of the most interesting stories from the pen of the popular writer, and deals with life at the frontier army post. Capt. King is one of the moat successful writers of the day, and any story having his name attached is assured of a thorough reading.
POSTMASTER HESING, of Chicago, has aroused the clergymen who are great sticklers for the observance of the sabbath day, by proposing to have a dress parade of the letter carriers on that day. The matter was carried to the department at Washington which has decided that the Sabbath is the only day on which an inspection can be efficiently beld. Mr. Hesing has been talking to the newspapers and he is not in a good humor. He refers to the preachers as "pulpit politicians."
CAPTAIN HOWGATB has been arrested but the authorities at Washington are not rejoioing over the capture. Indeed, they are grumbling at the man who caused the arrest. Ever since the captain escaped ten years ago when he was accused of embezzling about |400,000 of Uncle Sam's money, there has been no time when he might not have been arrested. The captain's audacity in his stealings was inspired by bis belief in the strength of the unseen but potent influence he knew he could command.
OF course allot us like to read the full est report of a prize fight, but we do object to ten months of preliminary wrangling. Mr. Corbett and Mr. Fitzsimmons will confer a favor on a long suffering public by signing the articles of agree ment for a fight and then disappear to reappear only in the ring. There is but one other nuisance comparable to these protracted newspaper fights and that is the inevitable scandal, crimination and recrimination that follow close upon the return of an arctic exploring expedition.
THE Tamiuauy corruption which is being exposed by the Lexow investigation is nothing worse than what was believed to exist. Nor is it more serious than justly could have been expected as a natuial result of the unopposed rule of men who are politicians in the basest meaning of the term. The general public does not fully comprehend the magnitude of the Tammany machine. It has bad the disbursement of nearly |20,000,000 a year in salaries and in the letting of contracts money has been paid with unbridled license.
ENGLAND is taking sups to protect her subjects in China. It is even proposed to send British troops to that country. While it is always true that the lion always shows its teeth in a menacing way wherever an Englishman's liberty or life is endangered anywhere the strong probability is that if troops go into camp in China there will be an ulterior purpose In the movement. Al ready there is talk of dismemberment of the empire and should this occur there will no doubt arise opportunities for a foreign nation like Great Britian to reap advantages, in the way of trade if nothing else.
T«R faculty of Pnrdue university is investigating a hazing outrage. The school authorities say that the perpetrators will be punished, as it has been the invariable rale at that institution that hazing is not to be permitted. Recently the authorities of Princeton put an end to the practioe. Hazing Is the silliest form of the Idiotic practical joke. Why it has been permitted aa long as it has been is hard for a rational being to understand. It seems to have been carried on through some sort of belief that it is the proper thing to do because it had been an accepted practioe many years ago in some collegiate institution either in this oonntry or in JSngland. ___________________

THE MIGHT TO STRIKE The decision of the United States Circuit oourt of'appeals, written by Justioe Harlan, may be said to settle judically the controversy as to the right of employes to strike, whether Individually or oollectively. And, this, too, regardless of the inconvenience of the employer or the public. The deoision reverses that of Judge Jenkins, which elioited much comment when it was rendered, in the matter of tbe restraining order directed to the railway labor organizations at the time of the proposed strike on tbe Northern Pacific, whioh road was in the hands of receivers appointed by tbe federal court. Judge Jenkins had restrained the men "from so quitting the servioe of the said receivers, with or without notice, as to orlpple the property or to prevent or hinder the operation of tbe read." This, Justioe Harlan says, was equivalent to a command that the men should remain in the aotlve employment ot tbe receivers and as suoh placed them in involuntary servitude.
Some of the newspaper comment on Justice Harlan's decision has been unfair inasmuch as it was based upon a palpable misconstruction of the justice's words and meaning. Justioe Harlan says that any combination or conspiracy upon the part of the employes would be illegal "which has for its object to orip pie property" and "to embarrass the operation of the railroads." This much only of the sentence has been used whereas Justice Harlan held that it would be illegal if thejembarrassment was caused by "disabling or rendering unfit for use engines, cars or other property, or by using force, intimidation, threats or other wrongful methods against the receivers or their agents or employes remaining in the service." But, as to any "crippling" or "embarrass ment" that might result from the mere quitting of tbe service of the company, the court of review plainly says it can not be prevented by an order of conrt.
The larger question, and the one in which the public takes the greater interest, is as to the rights it has and whether a court can establish them. "Public sentiment" has long been considered to be all powerful in determining tbe result of a strike but it is a slow process. That no court will be found which will undertake to cater to public convenience by issuing an order that may even bint at "involuntary servitude" is quite certain since the decision of tbe conrt of appeal is so plainly against such action.

The Children at the Fair. Hundreds of school children took advantage of the holiday on Wednesday, and visited the fair, and many of them wore their school shoes purchased of A. H. Boegeman, the south Fourth street dealer, whose shoes are noted for their wearing qualities. They are cheap and good, and parents in furnishing footwear for their children will be neglecting their own interests to see Boegeman before pnreh
