Keeps and Chentlng.
A Salem mother writes to the States
man as follows :
Have others besides myself noticed
the collections of school buys, in various
parts of the city, playini: marbles for
"keeps?" These iittle fellows are often
encouraged in this form of gambling by
older -joys and men (God savo the i

".I suppose you v.-ill be astonished when I tell you that six years ago I was
in a most dangerous condition with bronchitis and lung trouble, because you
can see how well and strong I am now. The attack at that time caused terrible
pain in my chest and lungs. I could hardly move, and to stoop caused intense suf-
er's English Remedy, and I M
thought I would trv it. although I t.
I confess that down in my heart
I had little faith in it. The
first bottle gavo great relief,
and the second bottle made me
the healthy woman I am today.
My husband's lungs arc weak
also, and he cured himself with
-the same grand old remedy.
Our boy and jjirl have boih
been saved by it from death
by croup. I know this is so, for
when they were attacked in the
night I had a bottle in tho closet,
and by acting quickly that fatal
malady was casi.y overcome.
We always give it to the children
-when they havo a cough or clL
and wc would not bo without ft
for anything. My s:3tcr will
tell you also, if you a-k her. that
'His a medicine that can always

troublesof tho breathing organs.
I tell nil our ne chbors about
Acker's English Remedy whenever I get a chance, and there arc plenty of peo
ple around Mechanicsville) N. Y,. where I live, who would no more think of go
ing to bed at night without nbottlo of it in the houso than they would of leaving
their doors wide open. As I look at it, parents are criminally responsible when
thoy allow their children to dio under their very eyes with croup, because here
is a certain remedy that will conquer tho terrible monster every time."

dimeter of the boys. The thins will
grow on them, and they will become
mature gamble. This is the danger
ous feature of it. When I was a sirl,
the teachers of the schools were verv
severe in dealing with this offense. Is
there not. a good deal of school dis
cipline, and hotim discipline, too, needed
in Salem ; a good deal more than is
exercised?
Whether "keeps" is played as much in
The Dalles as Salem, and gives qtiitu as
much annoyance 'to teachers, wo know
not. However, there ia another ovll in
schools everywhere, which causes the
instructors more trouble than anything
else. We refer to tho habit of cheating,
so extensively practiced and so difficult
to overcome. Pupils who are perfectly
honest in every other respect seem to
think nothing of cheating in regard to
lessons or examinations, and use all
sorts of dishonorable means, keeping
teachers constantly on the alert to pre
vent It. There iias always been tills
same difficulty, and such a practice
must certainly tell ui the character in
alter years.
Were parents to impress on their
children tiiat cheating in school is
equally as'dishoneat us in any other
walk of life, teachers would bo greatly
aided and the pupils receive much bene
fit therebv.

The Atlanta Constitution tells a good
story on the native southern judiciary.
A man and woman called on a rural
junice of the peace and asked for a
divorce. The justice called the bailiff
and asked in a whisper: "What's the
law on that p'int?"
"You can't do it," replied the bailiff,
"it don't come under yer jurisdiction."
"We're willin' ter pay cash for it,"
replied the husband, not understanding
the nature of the consultation ; "I've
got. the money in this here stockin."
The justice looked grave. Then, ad
justing his spectacles and addressing
the man, be said : '
"You knowed 'fore you came here that
'twarn't for me toeeparate husband an'
wife, an' yet you not only take up the
time of this here valuable court with yer
talkin,' buttickchully perpose to bribe
me with money! Now, how much you
not in that stocking?"
" 'Bout six dollars an' a half, yer
Honor."
"All right, then, I fine yon fire dollars
for bribery an' u dollar an' a half for
takiu' up my time with a case what my
jurisdiction is out of, an' may the Lord

GOVERNING IRISHMEN
Rotable Doings of Colts In Affair!
of Nations.
Of All Countries (he United States la
Tbnt In Which the Irlah Are
the Moat Prominent In
1'ul.llc Life.
"Irishmen arc on their trail." This
is n phrase which has been constantly
on the Hps of Knglish people of late.
The opinion has been cnlltd forth by
the Inauguration of local government
In Ireland, and the new system has bo-n
described as "an experiment," "a leap
!n tiie dark," of which none can foretell
the consequences.
Let us take 11 few typical examples of
the governing Irishmen. Let us glance
nt the careers of some compatriots who
In modern times proved the con
tinuity of the untiounl character, the
character llrst exemplified In the an
cient Ilrehon laws, one of the wisest,
justest nnd most elaborate code of laws
drawn up in any age or country, the
character which again asserted Jtself
in 17S2, the era of Irish legislative inde
pendence, when, in the words of Ornt
tan, "public prosperity so crowded on
the heel of the statute that the powers;
of nature.secmed to stand at the right
hand of parliament."
Spain, France nnd Austria are the
throe countries In which Irishmen have
chiefly attained renown, both as sol
diers and statesmen, but their foot
prints may'also be traced in the camps
iind senates of Russia and Holland, Un-,
varia, Portugal nnd Poland.
From the lliyht of the carls down to
the present day the names of Irishhmen
have been entwined with the fortunes
of Spain. O'Donel, dictator at Madrid;
O'Reilly, ambassador from Spain to the
court of Louis XIV.; Patrick Lawless
ambassador from Portugal to the same
court; O'Sullivan, grandee off Spain;
O'Reilly, Kavnnagh and Nugent, Aus
trian marshals; Lacy and Browne, liuv
siian marshals, nnd these are a few ol
the names which spring to one's mind
The O'Doneis of Spain, the Taafes ol
Austria and the MacMnhons of France
arc perhaps the foremost. O'Donel
duke of Tctuan, is one of the most influ
ential grandees of Spain, a position
which he and his ancestors have gained
in recognition of valuable services ren
dered to the state. The career of the
Irish-Austrian Taafes is no less illus
trious. During the seventeenth anc
eighteenth centuries their names have
been blazoned on the roll of 'imperial
Austria. Nicholas Taafe, field marshal
who in 173S won the famous victory 01
Belgrade over the Turks, and whose
son succeeded him in turn to the post
of chamberlain to the emperor, is t
I ictitrcsrpif figure, but as an example
of administrative genius the late prime
minister. Count Francis Taafe, is the
most notable. He is recognized as one
of thenbiest of Austria's statesmen, anc
it Un significant fact that his policy al
ways trended in the direction of extend
ing powers of self-government to the
various nationalities comprising the
empire. He was a federalist. In 1370
the year in which Isaac Butt started his
home rule movement, Count. Tanfe rec-'
ommended the Austrian emperor, as cj
member of Ills ministry, to grant au
tonomy to Bohemia.
The natural ability of the Irishmar
for .ruling was strikingly recognized ai
the time of the American war of inde
pendence, when the French acted as al
lies of the new republic. The officers
of the Irish brigade, under La Fayette
whose regiments engaged in the cam
paign, were appointed governors of the
West Indian islands, which they had
previously conquered. O'Dunn became
governor of (Jrenada, Dillon of St. Chris
topher and Fitzmuurice of St. Kustaehc
The administration of these governor.'
was equally praised by tho ICnglish
French and American governments.
Of till countries the United Slates it
that in which the Irish are the in dm
prominent in public life. For the pur
pose of our argument it, perhaps, af
fords a better illustration than do the
countries above referred to; for on tin
continent of Ruropu the Irishmen wlic
Lave distinguished themselves belong
for the most part to the aristocracy, but
in the republic of the wi:-t it is the
masses, not the classes, who administer
public alTair. and the rani; and tile have
i.equitted themselves of tho responsi
bility as creditably as hate the nobllltj
of their country elsewhere.
From the time when Dillon, of the
Irish brigade, eagerly demanded lenvi
of l.nnis XVI. to embark his regiment
to join tin- American forces 10 the pres
ent day. when 1'ro.ident MoRinley, the
.andneplii'w of the Ulster 'VH mnn.sitf
In the while house, Irishmen havo been
foremost in the civil arid military at
fairs of tin! great republic.
The proportion of Irishmen occupy
ing the post of governor of British col
onies nnd dependencies, or engaged in
other administrative and legislative
ivork throughout the empire, Is really
In excess of t hoi r mini hers and liilluence
itKehl.eiihof the mi me empire. By sheer
toice of merit and inlcnt they have
forced their way to the front. The fig
ures of the colonial governors and pre
miers are perhaps more prosaU: than
those of the continental statesmen.
Curving out the careers of new coun
tries In the backwoods of Canada or
the bush of Australia may not be such
iln.zling work as presiding over the ties-
.tlnlch of (he old world powers, hut the
task may prove a more solid and endur-
lug one when the. history of the future
comes to be wilt ten.
T' e governlnu irishman Is ns active
In Australia at present iir In the early
days or the colony . Byrnes, O'Loughlln
nnd O-ShnuglinesRy being some of the
lending names.
This glance nt the careers of a few
governing Irishmen may serve to re
mind Mime onlookers of the high tradi
tions of the race. That Irishmen will
act up to their traditions In tho future
there Is no reason to doubt. Dublin

PRICES TO CATCH THE EYE.

The Italian fruit seller shows his
shrewdness as n business tuan in n small
way by the' prices which he puts on his
wares. The fruit is arranged In tempt
ing groups on his push cart, nnd each
group in usually marked wllh a ticket,
so Hint the pedestrian may know the
prices without nuking. Over a pile of
plums may be seen the tiny rign:
"Bight for nine cents." Now, s:i,Vs the
New York Tribune, the avenge custom
er does not buy eight plums, anil when
In asks for one it is two cents, or two
for three cents, and, as the vender sells
more lots of one than iinythingVli;e, the
eight for nine cents becomes n myth,
and his stock averagi'3 nearly two cents
apiece. Peaches that are marked 12 for
25 cents if sold in dozen lots would be
fairly cheap, but one pencil from tin
name pile always costs three cents, am'
as "two for five" is the popular sale in
that class the lot which Is advertised it 1
2.5 ceiits usually brings more than '.'
In the orange season "eight for 2.1
cents" is n favorite price placed on the
fruit, which is really sold for four cent
apiece.
A bronzed Italian who has a regular
route fiver which -he sells fruit nt nil
times of the year was asked: "Why
don't you make prices for one or two,
and not for eight and a dozen?"
"Kighte for nine macke ye look den
ye pnye two fo' one." and lie winked the
other e-yc in away that showed that his
reputation for shrewdness was well de
served. Kntrllnh IJvceiitloiiN.
Everybody knows that suicide is un
known in England. It exists without
existing, as it were, says Bordeaux La
France. When on the other side of
the channel a person is found asphyx
iated by charcoal fumes, or lying in a
pool of blood wJth his arteries opened,
or strung up to the branch of a tree,
an inquiry is held, and it. is solcmrly
laid down that the deceased succumbed
to a lit of temporary insanity: for it
would lie immoral for an Englishman
to commit suicide, and shocking to re
late the fact.
