E; Mason, who has always been a staunch friend of the old soldiers, is making a ?amey fight against the arbitrary civil service rules which block them out from public service- in Chicago. Mr Mason is making the dry bones rattle just now. Hap The new 1895 fiags will have 45 stars on them. The order has pone forth from Secretary Lamont. The new star will be inserted on the right of the fourth row from the top, and it will signify that after nest Fourth of July Utah will be a fully fledged member of the great sister­ hood of states of the American Union, I®" One of the brightest indications for the future of this country is the large number of working people who are get­ ting their. wages-raised without asking foriit. When hard times come again, if they ever do, these working men and women will not forget, that their em­ ployers voluntarily raised their wages in the time Of prosperity. C@°-The Chicago Chronicle (Dem ) is authority for the statement that the tin plate mills of the country, established under the McKinley law, must all close within four months. This will send into enforced idleness the $10,000,000 invest­ ed in 137 mills, and 30,000 men. And so the good work of Democratic free trade legislation goes bravely on. .feT"The millenium may be said to have arrived-- When President Cleveland puts in force the vigorous foreign policy of which he is said to be dreaming. When Spain pa.vs the Mora claim of $1,500,000. When the Wilson-Gorman tariff yield* enough revenue to meet the expenses of the national government. When the free silver and hard monev Democrats get together. IST1 Last Saturday's Belvidere Rtpnb- lican contained an article regarding A. J. Hopkins' candidacy fur governor that to say the least, was decidedly flat. Neither sense ,nor reason can be found in the whole article. It was simply the effort of a man talking against time. Something had to be said and it matter­ ed little what was said. The Republican's opposition to Hopkins is likened to the efforts of the man who would try to drain Lake Michigan with a dipper.-- Genoa Issue. 1®° What kind of stuff are the school directors of McLean county made of any­ how? On Tuesday oyer 200 of then! met at Bloomington and passed resolu­ tions protesting againat the new flajr law and stamped it as "un-American and despotic!" Are these little fellows so much opposed to "Old Glory" thai they do not want it to wave over the school houses of the state? Everv one of these directors who voted for the reso­ lution are not worthy to hold their official position. IfeiP1 The case of Maria Barberi is nou in the hands of the governor of New ^ork who i6 petitioned for clemency. She is now under sentence of death for the murder of h«r betrayer. The miti­ gating circumstances'of the case and the extreme penalty imposed upon the of­ fender, has aroused a storm of criticism. One man from Kansas has even offeree^ to die in her stead. The man she mur­ dered tried his wiles upon the girl in vaii until he resorted to drugs to accomplish her ruin. Later, when she importuneo him to marry her, he replied with taunts- and jeers. She then took the law in hei own hands and gave the villian his just deserts. As long as there is an unw law in this country that no jury e vict a man for the murder of hi seducer, there should be anot that an unprotected woman is in avenging her own wrongs, and a jurj should not hang a woman for a deed foi which a man goes free. £p PROTECT GAME. A strenuous effort is beitig inefde tt secure a strict observance of the game laws iri thitf part of Jfte state. There is no game warden near at hand. The vt ri'ous gun clubs have taken up the mat­ ter and will keep an eagle eye on the wel- Tare of all kinds of game. There has been so much promiscuous shooting done.within the past few years that the game, unless carefully protected, will soon be entirely extinct. A number of violators of the law have already been arrested and many illegal hunters are be­ ing carefully watched. It~ is said that fish have been caught in Fox river by illegal methods of late and shipped to Chicago. This will be stopped if possible as well as the unlawful hunting. The va­ rious gun clubs are in the movement which, from all appearances, will do much to preserve the game and prevent its complete annihilation. At the request of many interested in. the movement, the Plaindealer prints the state law which hunters should read carefully: "It is unlawful, according to the' stat­ utes of the state of Illinois to kill or at­ tempt to kill at any time, in this state, the following birds : Robin, blue bird, swallow, martin, mosquito hawkj whip-' poorwill, cuekoo, woodpeckeFr'eat' bird,, brown thrush, red bird, hanging bbad, buzzard, wren, humming bird, dove, goldfinch, mocking bird, blue jay, bull finch, thrush, lark, cherry bird, yellow bird. Oriole or bobolink, or to rob or de­ stroy the nests of the same ; and shall upon conviction be fined §5 for each and every bird. It is unlawful to hunt, kill or destroy any prairie chicken between the 1st of November and the 15th of September ;*or any ruffled grouse, pheasant or qaail between the 1st of December and the 1st October; or any wild duck, goose, brant or other water fowl, between the 15th of April and the 15th of September, or any woodcock between the the 15th of Sep­ tember and the 15th of July of each and every year. The penalty for violating this law is a fine of not less than §5 nor more than $25 for each offense, and to stand committed to the county jail until tine is paid. It is unlawful to Sell or offer for sale, any wild turkey, prairie chicken or pin­ nated grouse, quail, ruffled grouse or pheasant, or any gray or red fox or black sqnirrel, which have been killed in the state of Illinois or to export the same. Wild geese and ducks may be sold in this state (whether killed here or not) from September 15th to April loth of each and every year. Deer antelope, wild turkey, prairie chicken or pinnated grouse, ruffled grouse and quail may be sold in this state after October 1st to February 1st of each and every year, except as above stated. And it shall further be unlawful for any person or persons, at any time, to sell or expose for sale or have in his or their possession for the purpose of selling any of the above named game or birds; and it shall further be unlawful for any per­ sons,. corporations, or carriers to receive for transport or convey any of the above named game in the state of Illinois, Ruakin as a Vtiiry Story Teller. A lady writer gives some pleasant recollections of Mr. Rnskin as she saw him at the warden's lodge in Koble, when the present vicar of Leeds inhab­ ited it. The lady was painting a por­ trait of Mr. Talbot's youngest child. Mr. JRusldn was announced, "Oh," said the child, "lie tells us such nice fairy tales.f' A few minutes later, "Mr. Rus- kin was,, seated On a divan. The three children were round him. Neither the warden nor Mrs. Talbot Was then pres­ ent. No sound save the exquisitely modulated" voice--soft, sympathetic, penetrating, 'This giant brandished a big sword, then leaped upon a big brown horse.' It was a charming tab­ leau. ftuskin evidently enjoyed the fairy tale as much as his small audience, The evening light was stealing in, cast­ ing rnystorioUs shadows. It was a har­ monious settiug."--Westminster Ga­ zette. ' I: Saturday, September 14th, 1895. Hebrew Not a Kea<l Language. More people use Hebrew as a lan­ guage of literature than Spoke it when Moses led his people through the Red sea. In recent years a regular Hebrew literature lias sprung up among eastern JdWs. Goethe, Schiller, Shakespeare and other classics Jiave been translated. Original Hebrew literature is also note- "j worthy and translations are being made into European languages. Thus the Hebrew novels of Mapu, especially his "Tharnar, " have'been- issued in Euro­ pean dress. Papers and. jnagaziu^s in Hebrew in greiit number are published, largely in the interests of the Zionite movement. Such journals as the weekly Hamagid of St, Petersburg have an in­ ternational reputation. In Russia, the Jews publish two Hebrew dailies* while the weeklies and monthlies are counted" by the dozen.--Literary Digest. . Barrie'a Self Abnegation. Self abnegation is such a rare virtue among modern novelists, most of whom seem anxious to inform the public when they have their hair cut, that the reply of Mr. J. M. Barrie of Thrums to his countrymen of Aberdeen, Who had asked him to lecture to them, deserves to be recorded. Writing from the Garrick olub, he says: "You are very kind, aud I thank you heartily "for the pleasant re­ membrance of me that induced the committee to send this invitation. But on the few occasions on Which I have been on a platform I wished to get be­ neath it. I never did lecture, and I am sure I never could. So kindly excuse me."--London Telegraph. What Is an Editor? Some boys were asked the other day to define "editor. " Here are some of their definitions: "An editor is a man who handles words," "Aneditor makes his living out of the English language," "An editor is somebody wlio does not do anything himself, and when some­ body else does goes and tells other peo­ ple all about it," "An editor is a man who lias the industry of a beaver, the instincts of a bee and the patience of au ass."--Book Buver.

A Harvard professor Who thinks tie veterans of the Union army are likely to become "an army of bummers" has hi- delicate sensitivities offended, not onh by the old soldiers, but also by the un fortunate "westerners." He says, does Prof. Chas. Eliott Norton: The spirit of irresponsibility is seen ii a marked degree in the west. The jingr spirit is bo strong tberethat troubleimn arise in the future. The burden of de fense would fall upon the seacoast cities Some of these westerners do not seem tc have any sense of good manners, eithei among themselves or in dealing with foreigners. It is really quite too bad. We do hopf our friends will try to improve their manners up to the Nortonian plane, par ticularly in the matter of thinking and speaking no evil. We hope they will not give vent to any mere erude and unre fined Monroe doctrine. It would offenc1 the fine Nortonian thought. It is true that Gen. Grant was a west man in his day, So was Lincoln. Si was Sherman. So was Logan. Allthes< had the American spririt to a degree thai would have jarred horribly on the Nor tonian nerves, but perhaps they did noi any better, poor things!' They had not absorbed culture like a thirsty sponge.' They loved their country, anc5 that was all. Grant's manners wer good enough for Queen Victoria, and they delighted the Emporer of Japan but they would never do for theprofesso whose delicate nostrils could not ever stand the smell of powder during th< Gilded Gold. "It takes Chicago to reach the limit of refined elegance. I mean elegance as Chicago knows it. Here's an illustration of it on my watch chain, and I value it as much as a wild westernism as I do for its personal associations." The speaker held up a gold coin about the size of a $5 goldpiece, fastened to his watch chain by a small eye. It bore the stamp of the South African republic and was glaringly, bright. " A friend of mine, who has traveled much in Africa, brought home a iozen of these to give to his friends «*s souvenirs," he con­ tinued. "The coins were of a rather deep red hue originally, and just as pure gold as is practicable for continual use. My friend had occasion to go to Chicago on his return from Africa and found himself compelled to pass a fort­ night there before coming back to civi­ lization. He took the coins to a promi- Chicag® jeweler with orders to affix .h an eye. 'All right, sir,' said the jeweler. 'We'll fix 'em up in good style./ A few days later my friend aed in for the coins. They were re- ued to him, fixed as he had ordered thein, and a li'ttle more 'I thought they looked a bit dull and wouldn't be the ,yorse for brightening up a bit,' ex­ plained the jeweler. 'You'll find they look more na|ty. H,ow,,' And they did, for he had gilded everyone."--Boston Gazette. INiuida, 111. taes, lye-Glasses SPECTACLES. Who's Got The Turkey ! The Biggest Turkey!

That cry wa§ the cry ef the victors of that day, but little did those who gave voice to that senti­ ment realize the magnitude of its im­ port. Little did they think that that vast expanse of unfilled prairies that had just wrested itself by the mighty arm of a Houston, of a Travis, of a Lamar, of a Rusk and of a Crockett from the grasp of the Aztecs would, in the time of their compatriots even, blossom as the rose "and become the home of the arts and the sciences.
