PROFESSOR GRIGGS of Stanford university is pronounced by the Reverend Anna Shaw the ideal man to go with the ideal woman. The reverend lady doesn’t give the name of the latter; but presently, we dare say, she will celebrate leap-year by whispering it gently in the good man’s ideal ear. GORE TO COME. BARON VON KOTZE of Germany, who has killed several men in as many duels, goes to prison for two years. This is an admission that dueling is more or less right, for otherwise the baron would neces- sarily be killed for murder. And it may be a partial recognition of his right to kill the several other men whom he has marked for victims. THE WICKED WHEEL. HE PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY at Saratoga protested against Sunday bicycle-riding. Therefore, we suppose, the less wheel a man has under him on Sunday the wickeder he is. Four wheels are the ortho- dox number, and three are barely allowable. Two wheels are an abomi- nation; and.what a miserable person must he be who gets along on no wheel at all! . MR. FALSTAFF’S PATRIOTS. HE NATIONAL REFORM PARTY, which is led by a Mr. Evans of Tonawanda, seeks a union with the prohibitionists, the populists, the {ree-silver men, and very likely with the somewhat larger party which Miller does with his right hand his left hand runs away from. A SHOWER OF PERCH visited Decatur, Illinois, the other day, and every man in the town is boasting that he caught the biggest, BEtForRD of Colorado perhaps didn’t mean the secession of the silver men from the union, but from the convention at Chicago. eee W = DOUBT if William E. Russell has begun his letter of accept- ance; but, on the other hand, he hasn't gone abroad to avoid the necessity of writing it.. eee THERE IS a great deal of timber in the silver states and territories. Perhaps the silver men would like the country and the world to accept the basswood dollar. OL eee any one.’ EYLER finds it necessary now to regulate the tobacco habit as it exists in the United States. Let him do that and manage our president and our congress and he may whip the insurgents in five years. HE DEMOCRATIC PRESS has ably assisted Mr. Platt in the fight against McKinley. The persuasiveness of Mr. Platt is powerful; but then the Democratic press is as much afraid of the Ohioan as he is. WE DON'T KNOW at this moment whether McKinley's interests in this state will be placed in Platt’s hands; but it may certainly be hoped that they will not be put in the hands of the Democratic state com- mittee. have it known around.” PRESIDENT ELIOT opposes military training in the schools. He is afraid it will create jingoes. When this elegant mugwump gets to heaven he will move to pull down the jasper columns because they might fall and hurt somebody. RUSSELL is pronounced by the Democratic Troy Press a protective Democrat, and the Press wants him to run for president. Any other Republican principle that the Press and its favorite would like to hook in behalf of Democratic success? T IS A QUESTION which shall be the bolting party at Chicago, the silver men or the sound-money men. They are about equal in force, and both are threatening all manner of bad things. The only method of peace is a straddle, and that unmistakably means an overwhelming defeat. A SHARP DIG. CHotLy—"Ah, say! I'm engaged to Maud Granger. Don't tell land, Thomas B. Reed and John G. Jack—"' No, I won't, out of regard for Maud. She must hate to will have a convention in Chicago. Then there are the imprisoned lunatics of the various asylums. Why can’t they get their liberty long enough to come together? A VERY OLD BIRTHRIGHT. ‘THE LIBERTY OF CONSCIENCE that the czar is to graciously grant was originally conferred by the Al- mighty as a birthright on every person who is to be affected by the generos- ity. That it should be formally and officially conferred seems curious at MN wi _. — this period; and yet there are synods Hy: i and: congregations all over the world who refuse it to their pastors, however honest, able and conscientious they may be. COMRADES IN LAW. WE ARE TOLD by the Washing- ton Capital that Grover Cleve- Carlisle will organize themselves into a company for the practice of law in New York; so that business makes as strange bed-fellows as politics. The only question to be settled, accord- ing to the Capital, is whether Reed or Cleveland shall lead the firm- name; and we all know that the Maine man generally declines to come second in anything. NEW YORK. T 1S A PITY that the voice of New York should be stifled or misdi- rected in the St. Louis convention. Undoubtedly the great mass of the Republicans of the state believe with their brethren of the other states that McKinley is the man for the time, and the muzzles of some of their Tepresentatives are not pretty or advisable. However, if they can’t lead they can follow; and their action after the proposed empty compliment to Governor Morton will be such as to hasten the unavoidable retirement of the man who assumes to be their master. THE PILLARS OF THE CHURCH. A QUESTION before the late Methodist conference was as to whether Women were necessarily included in the word “laymen”; and Dr. Lowther argued logically that if not the poor things were not only muzzled in the church but crowded out of the resurrection. Why wouldn't it be a good idea to drop Paul for a time and bring into use a little latter-day justice and common sense? Paul is not fair; and besides he has had not only a third term but several thousand of them. And what would become of the church, anyhow, if the women were to rebel and get up a church of their own? comicbooks.com {
