THE GREEK CHAMBER. recently decided to destroy the currant crop in order to improve the currant market. After all, we needn't go to Kansas for surprising statesmanship. inside is something awful.” THE QUESTION is not where did our police force get it, but how are they going to hang on to it. OMEBODY asks the Albany Argus if it is wise for a poet to go into trade. Undoubtedly; because then he lacks the time and inclination for the rhythmic foolishness. AGNES REPPLIER wants to know what a pastel in literature is. It seems to us to bea record of impressions without any explanation as to why they should occur. ‘THE BEST NOVEL for sedative purposes is discussed by the London Spectator. Has it thought of the one that everybody thinks he can write when he gets the necessary time ? UICIDE to beat the insurance companies shows a tenderness for one’s heirs that is amazing. ‘That is the best that can be said of that kind of dead-beat. In all other respects he is a scoundrel. GOVERNMENTS are largely means to robbery: and if there were Goffs in every municipality it would be discovered that there were no honest local office-holders. If you think this is too sweeping get a broom of your own. AN UP-TOWN EPISODE. Why, mamma! what's the matter with you?" “My dear, I was foolish enough to eat a ‘living-picture* poster and a Parkhurst-meeting poster, and the debate going on PUNCTILIOUS BARBARIANS. ‘THE JAPANESE are capable of any atrocity ; but they cheerfully admit the utmost truth of their barbarity and apologize for it most effu- sively. There is a mixture here of barbarism and civilization which is curious. They can kill and mutilate without heart or stomach, but they cannot tell a lie. THE GERMAN HOP. THE SOCIALISTS of Berlin ‘boycotted the Berlin beer-brewers, and the brewers came to their terms with much alacrity. The details of the controversy are not at hand, but it is a great victory for common sense and hops. As a soother of German quarrels and an ameliorator of Ger- man suffering hops are better than German statesmanship; and the kaiser and the reichstag ought to know it by this time. OUR GREATER CHICAGO. HE WORLD'S FAIR in Paris in 1900 promises, according to French figures, to be greater than the late exhibition in Chicago, But French arithmetic is for the most part smart lying. That regarding the Panama canal was so troublesome at last that it put several great men in the peni- tentiary, Better continue to bet on Chicago, When you get the mathe- matics of that town you know what you have and are only partially over- whelmed by it. K THE BLUE-GRASS RECORD. TUCKY put five hundred and sixty-one new convicts in its peni- tentiary last year, only one of whom had a fair education and three hundred and twenty-six of whom were wholly illiterate. There are so many lynchings in the south that the people haven't any time for education. Indeed we shouldn't be surprised to learn that the star-eyed goddess of reform had be- dewed her hands with blood and gone under cover for ninety days. THE NEW WOMAN. TRE WOMAN who wants to be a great woman must learn to be accurate. She mustn't speak of the dictionary man as Daniel Webster; and when she calls Joseph Choate Rufus she becomes ridic- ulous. She must learn that “etc.” is an invention to hide ignorance, and that her assumption of knowledge within those letters is an obvious error, Shall she talk politics? Oh, certainly; and perhaps she can cut down a tree fifty years old with her little hair-pin. ’ SOME VOLUMINOUS AS- PERITY. HE COURAGE of Mr. Croker in fighting Mr. Cockran with his im- petial mouth is undoubted; but he must remember that Mr. Cockran is a born ora- tor and might out-converse Mr, Corbett and give him a square knock-out in three rounds. We should certainly like to see the two geutlemen get together, having previously notified the world to put cotton in its ears; but if Richard were not permitted to do his talking below the belt the struggle would be ended about five minutes before it began. A LOCAL POPULIST. CARROLL D. WRIGHT, labor commissioner, thinks that presently the government will take charge of the railroads as.a means to har- mony between strikers and corporations, and will allow only reasonable profits to shareholders. . The principle is good to look at, but it must not stop there. The government must likewise control and operate iron, coal, silver and lead mines, steamboat lines, and all other kinds of business, large and small. Then we shall be a nation of office-holders, and every- body will have all the money and work he wants. DU MAURIER’S GIRL. +¢TRILBY” was bad because it was the custom of her kind. She didn’t _know she was bad, and therefore in her own mind she was innocent. Probably most of the young persons who read her do not sus- pect her of anything seriously wrong; but if all of them did it would be a fair question whether the knowledge is hurtful because it is slightly pre- mature. Some clergymen have decided that it is; but they must at least give the girl credit for a delicacy in behalf of the man she loves which is pure and unselfish enough for women in better walks of life. comicbooks.com
