Most men live to accumulate money, but are mighty lucky if they hold on to enough to pay for their own funerals. CHURCH AND MAN. ‘THE ORDINATION of Dr Briggs is a great triumph for the conscience. and nobody need fear that the church is not strong enough to stand it. The church covers a great deal of ground that is not under dispute at all, CAUSE AND EFFECT. M®- CARNEGIE had it announced that he would devote the remainder of his life and money to philanthropy, and now he has fled to Scot- land and locked himself in his castle to keep off the beggars; and still there are persons who say there is no virtue in advertising. IN THE OLD DAYS. T OCCURS to somebody that under the slavery system black: women and women partially black were cruelly wronged by white men, and they had no remedy. This person looks upon the present situation as retribution; but no crime that is visited on totally innocent parties can be properly so called. DANGEROUS. GENERAL BROOKE having prohibited bull-fights and cock-fights in Havana, there will prob- ably be new insurrections know better. Mites reminds one in some respects of McClellan, but his fight- ing has been done for a considerable time solely in the civil service. ce THE BALD-HEAD- ED MAN reads with profound disgust the story that five guin- eas was recently paid for alock of Napoleon's hair. HEN the Philadel- phia Ledger says the powers will make China a great nation in spite of herself it means, of course, a great num- ber of nations. WHILE MR, REED scorns politics, let us not believe for one moment that he will se- lect a quiet spot in Eng- land to live and die in. He's no ex-actress. eee HE MORMONS have five hundred elders in the south, preaching and proselyting. all lynched what ought to become of them? EVIDENTLY the generals in the Philippines are not afraid of the Fili- pinos, but they are in some danger in connection with the next Dem- ocratic national convention, Puoroc Sux: When the black men are THE WOMEN of a church in Kansas city having promised to remove their hats during services, there is a general inquiry as to what their new kind of under-bonnct ornament is. TBE WHIPPING-POST for wife-beaters is more or less discussed; but it ought not to be necessary to demoralize the public in order to give the rascals the punishment they deserve. os JERRY SIMPSON says he was driven into private life by the ridicule of the press. Much depends upon the man. The same sort of treatment by the press has driven some men to the presidency. A JERSEY JUDGE decides that a man may swear if he doesn’t loiter during the services, but keeps moving. That is to say, he mustn't stand up in a corner the better to give his language emphasis. Site—" What do you charge for children's photographs?” 1WeR—"* Five dollars « dozen.” I ve got only eleven children * without number. If the natives of that town can’t have the blood of animals and poultry they will fall to and kill each other. It is their nature. Without brutality they can’t have any fun, TWO THOMASES MR. REED perhaps thinks he is out of politics. Perhaps he is so far as the presidency is concerned, but he needn't be too sure about it. He is as eligible now as he was, and the lack of con- spicuity may help instead of hurt him. There, too, is his neighbor Mr. Platt. Nobody can tell what that Thomas is planning for the other Thomas. THE PLOT. THE TESTIMONY of Merritt, Wheeler and others who know in behalf of Alger, as well as the report of the investigat- ors, puts an end to the plot to destroy McKinley by shooting him over Al- ger's shoulders. How far Miles was in the plot few know; but he might get his empty reward if Bryan happened to pass out. As it is, he is mighty lucky to keep his epaulets. HARMONY ? ELtior DANFORTH has traveled south, and says that in his opinion the Democrats of that section would give up free silver, but they must have Bryan, along with an anti-trust plank and an income-tax plank. What! and give up the abolishment of the supreme court, the privilege of paying their debts at thirty-nine cents on the dollar, and the great scheme of making the government buy all the grain raised by the south and west? Oh, no! that cannot be. REVENGE IS SWEET. ONZE DAY, at a reception given in Chicago by Mrs. Potter Palmer, the infanta Eulalia of Spain refused to be introduced to that lady, re- marking, “Ido not care to meet this inn-keeper’s wife.” The other day in Paris Mrs. Palmer refused to meet Eulalia, remarking, “1 cannot meet this bibulous representative of a degenerate monarchy.” This government is rather proud of its victory over Spain, but what on earth can equal the intense satisfaction of Mrs. Potter Palmer? comicbooks.com
