Tke Sharp Crltlelsaas of Chronic Faalt-Flders. Lately, indiscriminate abuse of the press has become the fashion. Those who have fallen into the habit are, like near-sighted people, deliberately breaking their own glasses. A news paper requires the expenditure of more money and more brains than any other enterprise, and none re ceives fewer thanks. It is easy enough for the would-be critic, loll ing by day in his comfortable arm chair in ma club, to condemn, with out regarsl o facts, the results of a night's njenjjjl H of many bright men. Hbwjcpjjny merchants or pro fessional nen cpold correctly review in the space of a few hours the poli tics of two continents, the intricate questions of European diplo macy, the debates of Congress and legislative bodies at hoffie and abroad, and al that transpires in the courts, in society, in the churches, on the railways and the seas? Traffic, the weather, science, ex plorations, wars, local affairs in epd less variety, all come within the scope of a well equipped paper. Its managers are also obliged to con sider business details and expedi ency, and to superintend thp fe portorial and typographical depart ments. To accomplish all this with out committing errors would be superhuman impossible. ChampionB of charities, laborers of love, unceasingly exposing shams and encouraging enterprise, th.e bet ter part of newspapermen arS the most constant in teaching right. They are home missionaries, dissemi nators of wisdom, professori in a universal college, tirelessly tolling towards the lights on the summits of perfection. Keporters have the lion's share of abuse. Their lot is often a hajd one. Few people take into considera tion the temptations that besft these gatherers ol news and the diffi culties that they must oncouiiter. Poorly paid, over-worked night toil ers, these beginners in journalism as a rule have to pass through a bit ter apprenticeship. Boys of all work, the strain put on them is tre mendous. Little recognition is vouchsafed them from without, how ever excellent their labor, when faulty blame is not stinted. Their range reaches from the palace to the slums, from hell to Heaven; they are everywhere looked upon with suspicion. Is it strange, then, with so many obstacles in their way, that they sometimes make mistakes? It is wonderful that they commit so few. Despite all these disadvan tages, despite all the condemnation that is heaped upon them, reporters are a band of talented, spiightiy, generous men of spirit, mostly straightforward, quick to resent in sult, and grateful for kindness. No profession embraces so large a pro portion of tyros with intellectual grasp. Many are the uncrowned heroes on the staff of our daily pa pers, youthsburning with inspiration, melting their candles at both ends, lacking the appreciation which is their due, often dying early, ofttimes sinking unknown in the quicksands of metropolitan life. The political position of news papers is also apt to be misjudged. If strongly partisan, the editors are charged with interested motiveB, if non-partisan, with lack of conviction. Why should you be less fair to them than to your neighbors, whose opin ions you are ready to respect and whose motives you do not impugn? Demands for" an "ideal" news paper are perpetually dinned in editors' ears. Their appreciation of the need of improvement is keener than that of the public, hut they are powerless. They have ex perience and know that this need mustawaitaciviimillennium. When civilization shall have reached the highest perfection, then the ideal daily newspaper, as still the true reflex of life, will become both prof itable and possible. Attempt after altempt has thus far failed, mainly for lack of pecuniary assistance and moral support from the moneyed classeB who are pronest to criticise. The struggles of the New York Nation and the Chicago Current are warnings to all practical men to avoid launching into similiar enter prises to be found in "ideal" news papers. These sheets are fit ex amples of the difficulties that purely intellectual newspapers have to meet. Hoiv greatly are these difficulties increased by the infinite variety and the ten-fold expenses of metropolitan dailies 1 The grandest mission conceivable belongs to the newspaper. With in adequate financial or moral en couragement the press keeps apace with the times, in fact, keeps ahead of them. Always a grade better than its surroundings, the best type of American newspaper will surely fulfill itshigh mission, the enlighten ment of mankind, and the realization of the brightest dreams of all true disciples of progress. Chicago Tribune. A man who was hanged in Colo rado recently said on the gallons that he had never smoked, rhsjwed, drank, or sworn profanely, and yet they bioke his neck for a'little thing like murderim; a whole hiiii:ly. -C hicago Herald. It is the man who cannot raise thj wind who does the most blowing.--ilrcbant Traveler. I i rfce Maa Who Did. Uonse-nork. There was once a man, says the IToiyf&ceper, who was crtfss and peevish, because he thgufit his wife never did enough in the Qtise. He came home one evening from the hay field cursing ana .scojding, till tMies seemed to fairly glow aroundnlm. "Dear, "don't be so angry," said the wjjman; "in the morning we will change work. I will gCLput with the hay wrlters, and mow, while you doufjkwork at holnejji Yes, tne man thought this a good idea, anjd was very willingTo show herathipgortwo. So early in the morning thevoman took the scythe, and went out in the meadow with the rest to'mow. The man was there to work in tile hoii?e. First, he made ready to churn ; but after churning awhile, feeling very thirsty, he went down cellar to tap some beer. While doing thi3 he heard the pig in the kitchen. He ran upstairs, leaving the faVcet. At the sight of him the pig ran against the churn with disastrous conse quences. When the man saw this mischief done, and the pig greedily smacking and sipping of the stream that ran over the floor, he was ready to fly with rage, and completely for getting the beer-barrel, he punished the pig as best ho could. He reached it again in the door, and gave a mighty kick that killed it on the spot. Now he remembered leaving the faucet open, but on going to the cellar all the beer had run out. He then went to the milk-room, and again found enough cream to fill the churn, for butter ho must have for dinner. When he had churned awhile he remembered that the cow was yet in the stable, and had re ceived neither bite nor sup, though it was late in the day. Thinking it would take too long to go to the pasture, he conclude to put her on the sod roof, on which grew short, green grass. As the hut lay by a steep side-hill, he thought by laving a plank from that to the roof, it would be an easy matter to get the cow up. But lie dared not leave the churn, for the baby was crawling around on the floor, and might up3et it; so he took the churn on his back, thinking he would give the cow some water before putting her on the roof. Leaning down to dip water from the well, down came the contents of the churn, deluging his head and neck, then dripping into the well. It was now near dinner time, and as there was no butter, he thought of cooking mush, and immediately hung a kettle of water over the fire. But now he bethought himself, that the cow might fall off the roof and break her legs, or neck, so he must go up to tie her. One end of the rope he tied around the cow's neck, and dropping the other through the chimney, he went down and tied it around his leg, for the water was boiling in the kettle, and he must make the mush. While doing this the cow fell off the roof and dragged him up the chimney by the rope. There he hung, a prisoner, while the poor cow dangled between heaven and earth, able neither to go up o'r down. The wife had waited seven long and broad hours to be called home to dinner, but no summons came. At last she thought it was too long and Anally went home. Upon see ing the cow hanging in such a re markable manner, she quickly cut the rope with her scythe. At the same moment the man fell down the chimney, and his wife found him standing on his head in the mush kettle. Thus ended the woeful experiences of a man who found fault with his wife; and as this type of the genus homo is not confined to one nation alone, let every man addicted to a similar practice take a solemn warn ing. They arc making the new styles of collars so high that before long'young men will have to stand on tiptoe to see anything at all. New York 'Jraphic. Yellow Fever Prevented.
