In anotent times servants in the cm-
- ploy of aristocratic gentlemen were con
tent if their hamble salutations to their
employers were received " with good
. nattrred abuse or a jocular punch in the
bead. This waa good form and the em-
v ployers never thought that euch kindly
recognitions of theft servitors were be
neath them.. Occasionally even a gen-
- tkmair with nothing particular- to -do,
-aod the desire to pleaeo strongly de--developed,
would acknowledge bis ser
vant's presence -by beating him a little
-in public.
8uch democracy or familiarity is ap
parently beneeth a certain class of gen
tlemen of the -present day, if recent dis
cussions in the 8t. James Gazette and
the London Spectator are to be consider
ed. Nobody but a cad would have start
ed the discussion, for nobody but a cad
would ever have thought of its text:
What is the proper form of salutation in
public between a man and his servant?
The London writers argue that a gentle
man will hardly deeire to lift hia bat to
fcis butler or to bis second maid. And,
also they think it unpleasant to cut the
servant. When an empolyer's 'maid
curtsies to him on the street it might
seem rude, so think the essayists ; to
stare straight ahead and ignore her.
The London Spectator even -suggests
-Chat in such an emergency-the employer
might forestall the trouble and save
hurt feelings by suddenly crossing the
street. Thus a wealthy man with many
servitors might be kept .perpetually
dodging while outdoors. But the solu
tion is imperfect in that, sometime, the
borried employer might see Jane com
ing on one side of the street and Jeames
on the ether. His 'only recourse then
woujd be to take to the middle of the
road or torn and flee, the terrified victim
of his own chuckle-headed snobbish
ness. . ' '
The S&d annual re-union of the society
"of tfcw Armyof. thq . Cumberland will
tafro place on the battle-field Of " Chica
manga, September 15th ami 16th. The
occasion will bo a reunion of the surviv
ing veterans of the Army of the Cainber
land, both officers and privates, as well
as of the society. All surviving com
rades are. cordially invited to attend.
Half-faro arrangements have been made
with the leading railroads of the coun
try. The "local committee at 'Chatta
nooga is arranging for reduced botel and
lodging rates, and for reasonable trans
portation io and about the various bat
tle fields. The famous "Wilder
Brigade" will be present 1,200 Btrong.
It is expected that a large number of
prominent ex-Confederate, officers will
be present, also.
, rat sense or the situation.
A Hard Cordtr.
The Portland newsboys were out on a
strike yesterday., One of them explains
it thus: "Ye see, we was a-gettm our
papers seven for 20, -see? . (seven papers
for 20 cents) and -now dey want free
cents straight. We ain't a-goin' to pay
it. We etruck, and we'ro going to get
what we ask for, and more, too. We
want de paper for2a,see?" They went
for the scabs in a way that would put a
yalo foot ball team to blush. The man
ager of the Oregonian thinks that if it is
worth two cents simply to sell the paper
it should be worth three cents to make
it. The boys, besides, are allowed to
return unsold copies and get their money
back. TheOregonian people maintain
that the affair is a huge joke, and say
that no advance has been made what
ever. Xhe boys can get their tapers tne
same as thev did before.
The Buffalo Express of the 13th is at
hand with particulars of the beginning
of the latest strike. Frank Sweenev of
Chicago, grand master of the switch
men's mutual aid association of North
America was present. The workmen
were being paid 19, 21 , and 22.j cents
per hour, according to places. They
want 23, 25 and 27 cents per hour, ac
cording; to places. Other associations
on other lines, agreed to stand in with
them, in case of a strike, and refuse to
handle freight. Grand Master Sweeney
addrrtwed the mneting Frida, August
12th., and firaml Master Sweeney
ordwvd the strike at midnight. Fifty
thousand duliarri worth of property was
burned up anl otherwise destroyed.
The end is not yet.
, brace the presidential election of 1888
the apportionment of. presidential elec
tors has been changed and a number of
new states have been admitted to the
union. While these changes effect in
some degree the relative strength of the
two great parties they do not- destroy its
general outlines. The possibility of
contest in three hitherto uncontested
western states invests the campaign of
1892 with something more-than usual
interest. The democrats, being out of
power, are theoretically and also practi
cally the assailing party. Their plan of
battle is of necessity one of aggression
and conquest. They are endeavoring to
take from the republicans the control of
national affairs, and in order to do this
they must carry the election in states
that they lost in 1888. ; .
Can the democrats win? And what
sEates must they gain in order to recover
the office of president The - states
enumerated below are. admittedly
democratic. It is true that conditions
may come about whereby one or more
of these states, for example, West Vir
ginia and New Jersey ; may be lost next
November, but such conditions are not
likely to arise. These form the back
bone of the democratic electoral column :

She feels that she is fast leaving her
youth behind her. But there is no rea
son why a woman should be faded and
paste at 36, or even 45. The chief cause
of the early fading of American women
is found in the fact that many of them
suffer from some form of female weak
ness or disease that robs tho lace of its
bloom, draws dark circles about . the

According to the Congressional Rec
ord the late democratic house has made
appropriations exceeding the appropria
tions of tbe first session of the last re
publican house by over $40,000,000.
The total appropriations of the first ses
sion of the 61st, republican congress,
were $463,000,000. This is $37,000,000
less than a half of a billion of dollars.
The total appropriation's of the first ses
sion of the present, democratic! house,
are over $610,000,000. This is $10,000,
000 more than a half of a billion of dol
lars. Wise men will not complain about
this. The appropriations are all just
and proper, but they will realize once
more the predicament of the democratic
party forced to take a position which
annuls all its demagogical pretences

The Sentinel has dug up a fossil in

Why, man alive! -pick-you out-one good

She will lay about 200 eggs per 'yea

It turns out that Private lams, while
suspended by his thumbs, "asked for a

and admiration of all the devoted lovers
of the weed. There is no password like

The champion woman tennis-player
of tho United States, Miss Mabel
Cahill, is a native of Dublin, and has
been for only four years a resident of
New York. She is a woman of small
physique, but full of spirit, and aoconi
plished in horsemanship and other out
door sports besides tennis. One secret
of her success on the tennis court is the
facility with which she executes a strong
back-hand stroke, which surprises her
opponent, and usually wins the point in
piay.
ix win aetonisn a great many persons
to bear that, according to the census re
I ports, the grape crop of New York
brings more money than the grape crop

wine-making. The modus operandi of

A flowing well has been struck on the

minute until tbe well was full, and every

Col. Don Dickinson having become

It's not likely that an ordinary

Part of Michigan.
A majority of the electoral college is
223. From the above showing it will be
seen that forty-eight more votes will be
required to displace Mr. Harrison. The
democrats have chances in various
states. Perhaps their beet prospect is
in Connecticut, which was carried in
1876, 1884 and 1888. Connecticut has
six electors. Assuming that Connecti
cut will vote for Cleveland, there are
yet forty-three electoral votes required
to give the necessary 223: New York
with thirty-six and Indiana with fifteen
'would give this number and some to
spare. But while New York trembles
in the balance Indiana naturally in
clines toward Mr. Harrison. If the de
mocracy wins in New York it may have
to. look elsewhere than to Indiana for
enough votes to fill out the number.
Illinois and Wisconsin are poseiblo re
liances, with Iowa in a condition that
might lead to a surprise.
However if New York and Indiana
ehould both be lost the democrats might
win Illinois and Wisconsin and yet fail
to secure the election, for they would
obtain but thirtysix electoral votes when
they need forty-two. . This six might in
part be won in Montana, in South Dak
ota, where tbe conditions are unsettled,
and in Colorado, where both parties are
demoralized over the silver question ; in
Kansas, where fusion may accomplish
something, or in Nebraska or Iowa.
But a final reliance on any of these
would be practically an acceptance of
defeat. Leaving New York alone out
and claimiug Indiana with fifteen elec
toral votes, twenty-seven votes would
yet be required. Illinois has but
twenty-four. The twelve votes of Wis
consin, the four votes of South Dakota
or the thirteen votes of Iowa added to
Indiana and Illinois would make the
required forty-two, which with the six
of Connecticut and the 175 tabulated
above would give . the 223 electors
necessary to name the president.
It is apparent from this Showing that
there is but one way for the democrats
to win. They must be bold, aggressive,
united and full of fight at all points. If
they are timid, cold or half-hearted they
will surely meet defeat. The possibili
ties for them in a rattling campaign
are superior to our own, and the repub
licans realize that the necessities of the
hour "make good leadership and high
courage essential. High courage and
good leadership are very necessary. ,
Headache
Usually results from a deranged stomach or
a sluggish liver. In either ase, an aperient
is needed. Ayer's Pills, tbe mildest and
most reliable cathartic in use, correct all
irregularities of tbe stomach, liver,, and
bowels, and, In a brief time, relievo the
most distressing headache. These pills are
highly recommended by tbe profession, and
the demand for them is universal.
" I have been afflicted, for years, with
headache and Indigestion, and though I
spent nearly a fortune in medicines, f never
found any relief until I began to take Ayer's
Pills. Six bottles of these Pills completely
cured me.- Benjamin Harper, Plymouth,
