CERTAINLY there is a reasonable doubt in the case of Mrs. May- brick; but glish law as put forth by Judge Stephen that anything which conflicts with the conclusions of the presiding offices is monstrously unreasonable. : eee THIS IS a free country, and if you can't have the office you want you can get satisfaction by whacking away at the relatives of the appointing power. It is true enough that the exercise makes you feel like a thief, but you may like that sort of exhilaration. eee ‘6 BEN S. ALLEN is in jail as a thief because he adored his wife.” The wife is a very extravagant woman whose adoration is apparently given altogether to herself. A combination of foolishness and selfishness that means ruin always and every time. eee Up? IN THE CATSKILLS a city sojourner noticed that his voice was brought back to him from several distant points. ‘What an echo!" he said musingly. “Hey?” inquired the native. “I said the echoes were very effectiv Yes,” remarked the native after a long pause, “the air here is kinder holler.” T 1S THOUGHT that Missouri will be a doubtful state in 1892, Not so doubtful as some may think, As that most astute of political observers, the New York Sun, would ob- serve, “Keep your eyes on Missouri and West Virginia.” And by the same token keep your eye on New York, and look at it through many pairs of spectacles. THE VETERAN. THE FIGURE of the old soldier needs no photo- graph. Shambling with halt and weakening steps, rough and worn like a rusty sword, his once firm tread has grown erratic and uncertain. Wearing now no hat with golden braid, he is only a plain-clothed civilian, trudg- ing to the daily-bread strug- gle. The contrast is wide between the sturdy files of stalwart. men who nearly thirty years ago stepped out, at the despairing call of a threatened union, to defend its flag and its homes. It is the soiled veteran to-day; then it was the dashing vol- unteer. Earnest dames and beauteous women presented and pastors blessed the national colors and cheered their enthusiastic de- fenders. The inspiration of music and song spurred the young heroes of the hour, and every little hamlet, village, town, and city glorified in print and social publicity the names of its self-sacrificing sons. Husbands were assured neither wives nor little ones should want, and if ill befell they would be barricaded against need, and the half-orphaned family would be re- fathered by a grateful public. Farmer, mechanic,’and laborer, as well as professional men, were equally touched with the common glory that glinted the columns that marched to the front, Even the rough element scraped up out of the great towns, spurred perhaps more by bounty than by prin- ciple, and those who filled the broken ranks for pay rather than patriotism, were semi-sanctified, not by the motive as much as by their courage. To these, impelled in whatever way, the same guerdon was given. The be- grimed “ mite” of the poorest weighed as much in the scale of patriotism as the more costly gift of the more fortunate. Was it to be expected that of the million men who answered to the country’s call each and all were equally touched by a sacred fire? There was a kinship of result, just as the flame that burns on the humblest and utilitarian hearth is the same as that that consumed the incense on the altars of the gods. Time is a swift obliterator. Sentiment needs remembrance to main- tain continuous life. Gratitude, however, is short-lived, and after the fever of its first flush fades into thinness, and is apt to harden into grudge. The tangled grass on thousands of soldiers’ graves, as well as Grant's unfinished tomb at Riverside, testifies to the equal forgetfulness of private and com- your measly book. Git out!"
