THE DAUGHTERS of the prince of Wales can go into the kitchen and cook a meal. The prince is probably the greatest diner-out in England. GMITH WEED remarks quietly that Governor-Senator Hill may find it necessary to run for president “to save his party,” and that mean- while he will work his other two offices “for all they are worth.” We are much afraid Mr. Weed feels bad about something. TRAIN in Arkansas killed a man and took the corpse up and carried it to the next sta- tion; but first the conductor searched the clothes of the corpse and took therefrom the money nec- essary to pay its fare, We confess our inability to do justice to this subject. . Se THE LAW is supreme,” says a_western editor, regretting the recent rule of the mob in New Orleans, Now the law isn’t su- preme. That is precisely the trouble. It was nullified, stamped out, treated with contempt by the men who began the murdering. . ipa BLOOD will tell is shown in the case of Pearl Starr, daughter of Belle Starr and Cole Younger. She is an accomplished horse- thief, and hopes in time to do a number of re- markable murders. We are not prepared to say at present whether she will go on the stage or write a book. ‘eTHE WOMAN of the future,” says S. B.

It is at least pleasant to know that the duke makes a show of effort to earn his own living; though as a genuine valet he would probably get his discharge before he had half begun. NO HURRY ABOUT IT. EWFOUNDLAND wants to come into the union of these states. The main trouble is a difference with the English government, but there is some affection along with the indigna- tion, It is not well to be in a hurry, however. Uncle Sam doesn’t like small jobs, and the annexation business had better take place at fone swoop. Then in case of trouble the an- nexed parties can take care of themselves swith very little assistance —for this govern- ment doesn’t want any fighting of its own that can possibly be avoided. A little Indian fight- ing, and perhaps a brush with Spain after the acquisition of Cuba—that will suffice for us for several years to come. THEIR LAW AND OUR LAW. ANARCHISTS believe in killing, but when an anarchist is hanged by the law they say that is a great crime. The Mafia condemns men to death and assassinates them, but when an Ital- ian is killed by the mob or the law there is an Italian howl that runs through the continent. Perhaps, after all, our open law is to be respect- ed as much as their secret murdering; and when our law fails our open method of justice or retri- bution is as good as their surreptitious stabbing and shooting.
