James S. Metcalfe is one of the best and fairest critics in all New York. The allega- tion that he was barred from the trust theaters be- cause his criticism was aimed at the race and religious views of the managers cannot stand. The trust’s hatred of Mr. Metcalfe is based on the fact that they cannot dictate his opinions to him. No, not even when their theaters burn down and lives are lost, for even then Metcalfe tells the truth.—Utica | Observer. Henry James in Washington E ARE aware none the less of impressions— that of the ponderous proud Senate, for | instance, so sensibly massive; that of the Supreme | Court, so simply, one almost says so chastely, yet, while it breathes supremacy, so elegantly, so all | intellectually, in session—under which the view, | taking one extravagance with another, recurs | rather ruefully to glimpses elsewhere caught, glimpses of authority emblazoned, bewigged, be- mantled, bemarshaled in almost direct defeat of itsintention of gravity. For the reinstated absentee in these presences the mere recovery of native privilege was at all events a balm—after too many challenged appeals and abused patiences, | too many hushed circuitous creepings, among the downtrodden, in other and more bristling halls of state-—North American Review. | Dogs | FTER these instances how tame seems the| rivalry of two wealthy men of New York | for blue ribbons at the recent dog show! One of them offered $10,000 by cable for a famous Lon- don collie, to be sent him in time for the show. Yet a collie is happiest not when lined up with a | hundred others at a bench show, but when racing |the snow-beaten hills to round up a few silly sheep, all for love of a shepherd who never owned 10,000 cents at a time. Humble friends of man, dogs are all generosity and all service. No sane man ever starved to death while watching a dog’s dead body, as the dog immortalized in Scott’s “Helvellyn” did for his master. And no dog would ever object to the burialina dog cemetery of a good man who loved | dogs, as men in Louisville, Ky., are objecting by | | legal process to the burial in Cave Hill Cemetery ; of Billy, which once saved several lives by running up a railroad track with a red lantern to stop a train when the watchman was disabled.—New! York World. A Busy Voter OHN WEAVER, the reform mayor of Phila- delphia, was recently congratulated by a dele- ymen on the clean administration that he has given the Quaker City, according to the Philadelphia Bulletin. In the course of his reply, Mayor Weaver said: “Tam glad to tell you that things with us have improved. Take, for instance, the matter of elections. A Philadelphian, some years ago, was running for a small office, and on election day he went from poll to poll cheering his supporters on. “‘As he left a certain poll a shabby individual approached and shook him by the hand. ““T trust, sir,’ said the candidate, ‘that you are one of my supporters?’ | “*One?? chuckled the shabby individual. ‘Why, bless your heart, I’m seven of ’em.’” QUALITY UNEQUALED EXCELLENCE UNSURPASSED.
