THE FLAG—It must never come off its perch. eee Hosson might be set to work to raise the national debt. THE REST of us can die only once, but the emperor of China has a regular habit of it. ALTGELD threatens two free-silver speeches a day; whereas, as every- body knows,“he is capable of sixteen to every one. viele : EVERY SPANIARD is continually crying out, “No, we can’t have peace on any such terms as these, By the way, what are they?” WHY STOP THERE? A CORRESPONDENT of the New York Evening Post wants this gov- ‘ernment to give the Philippines and the other acquired territory back to the Spaniards. Let us do more than that. Let us surrender the flag to them, and also the United States of America. DO..OUR ‘MEN. STARE? «¢ DERHAPS," says’a Baltimore woman writing to the Evening Sun of this town, “the reason why New York men stare so at a good- looking woman is that there are few good-looking New York women.” ‘The reason may be just the opposite of that. They may be surprised to find that there are women who are not good-looking. Frequently this town has visitors. WHITE MEN’S MEANNESS, AN OLD CHIEF of the Chippewas in Minnesota was hauled into court, a long distance away, as a witness, and, his mileage fees being re- fused him, had to walk back home, begging the necessary food on the way. This is one of a good many outrages which brought about the late Indian war. The soldiers have to pay for these outrages with their lives; and the swindlers are never punished. MUST THE CUBANS BE. WHIPPED, TOO? 'HE CUBANS.in and about Santiago refuse to work, and have killed several of their compatriots who want to work. What they want is back pay from the United States of their salaries as insurgents for three years, and the sum of a million and a half dollars is indefinitely mentioned. Evidently these tatterdemalions want the luxury of idleness, with Cuba and the larger portion of the rest of the earth thrown in, 5 MEN WHO ARE TROUBLESOME. N CHINA as well as in Turkey the ruling power is sometimes found to have committed suicide. That is what they call the method of his NECESSARY FELINE SUFFERER. FOOT-BALL CAPTAIN (with phonograph recorder)—" Twist the cat's tail harder, Bob. will give the boys a chance to practice something unique,” ES UR PEACE COMMISSIONERS are half inclined to think that those Spaniards who insist that the war isn’t over afe more than half right. ‘THE MAYOR of St, Louis joins Joe Bailey in refusing to wear evening dress, The accessions to the Democratic cause are rapidly coming in. MB: INGALLS may be right in his declaration that the free-silver busi- ness is dead, but if he doesn’t want to be hurt he will keep away from the corpse. ET US COMMEND Judge van Wyck for his silence on the silver question, Any utterances of that kind coming from him would nec- essarily be counterfeit. . MATINEE GIRL, writing for the Chicago 7imes-Herald, says that in rehearsing Fanny Davenport went at everything with both feet. What did she want to do that for? HE GOVERNOR of Illinois proclaims that to import labor is a high crime. Thus a man who goes out of his own bailiwick to look for work is liable to get it in the penitentiary. AN ARTICLE in Scriiner shows, as we have frequently pointed out, that the man who should have commanded the army at Santiago was not General Shafter, but Richard Harding Davis. ‘THE UNDERSTANDING that will be reached between the French and the English in Fashoda is quite simple. It resembles a similar understanding between a California gold-digger and a burglar. ~ You git!" said the digger. “You bet!” said the burglar, and away he. got, I've got to get a new foot-ball college-yell for this year's eleven that taking off, though a more strict interpretation would call it assassination. They are equally fastidious in their translations in France with regard to men who have too much information; and it will be strange indeed if Dreyfus doesn’t wake up some morning to find himself dead by his own hand. IS THE TIGER TO RULE? R. CROKER doesn’t surprise anybody with his remark that he will remain at the head of Tammany hall as long as he lives. The ques- tion is, however, whether he shall go to the head of the state as the power behind Judge van Wyck, and eventually to the head of the nation as the power behind the same man or some other man. That was Mr. Tweed’s ambition, and but for some unfortunate discoveries he might have achieved it. A FREE-SILVER TICKET. THE NAME OF BRYAN was more cheered in the Syracuse conven- tion than that of any other man, and every man of the ticket se- lected by the convention voted for him. The omission of his name and his principles from the platform showed a wholesome fear of the voters, but the cowardice is futile against the facts. If van Wyck might be elected does anybody doubt that that result would be flaunted as a free- silver victory ? PARTIALLY GUILTY. THE CHARGE that Colonel Roosevelt sometimes wears a swallow-tail is as true, we are afraid, as it is sad. But, after all, it isn’t his fault. He has to do it or stay away from some kinds of entertainment at which he ought to be present; but we think it safe to say that he never wears a swallow-tail when it is proper to wear some other kind of coat. And, come to think it, he didn’t spike his coat-tails when he fought the Span- iards—not once, not once. comicbooks.com 1
