E53! J we: Comatock indicated one line of defense for ibis client who took his horse from the city pound the other day, to wit. that the horse was not legally impouhded. Of course the Judge, With his extensive and varied knowledge of the law, and his erud- ite familiarity {with the decisions of the higher couits, knew that had no- thing to do with the matter in issue. The whole issue was one of factâ€"3 did the young man violate the ordi- ‘ THERE is a most wretched state of things at the foot of the hill on Cenâ€" tral avenue west in front of John O. Cummings’ residence: the sink sew- age of the street above him is turL- ed into the gutter which breaks out into the open right in front of his home and the dark yellow, green slimy stuff stands there in that open gutter for about one hundred feet.

Society folks will please note this, forif you see a thing in the News it is so. IT has been decided by eminent social authority that it is proper to say “hush up" when you want over talkative persons to keep still, while it is not in good form to say “shutâ€" THE New York Tribune suggests that the Methodist clergy of the country have greatly reformed in the matter of smoking, horse-racing and similar sins. Very true, but the man will be obliged to rise early, Work long and late who can equal theaver- age Methodist minister in swapping horses. On: Senator Mason has earned the gratitude of the world. He defines a filibuster as one “who sets his mouth going and leaves it a week or two without any intellectual exer- cise.” And he might have added "For astriking example. look at me." Great is “Billy” the filbuster, hoist on his own petard. PROSPECT avenue in front of Geo. D. Boulton's is still in an untidy and unhealthy condition. It is not a good plan to allow water to “dry off" anywhere, most of all in a public street like that and one ofoilr choice streets and m one of the best sections of the city. Gasman. Toral of the Spanish for- ces at Santiago says he did not sur render he only “capitulated.” All right, we won’t quarrel about words; he wa‘I licked, knows, acknowledges, lays down his arms and sur â€" no. “capitujates,” and old Glory floats over the town.

Highland Park dead-beats! The city council should makeit anoflense to use such a term respecting any permanent or transient resident or‘ even a summer boarder! No, we“ can’t sit by and hear our fellow citi- zens who squander their money for drink, or because they dream of wealth some day, launch out in spread Some one told a recent comer that there are a number of persons resid- ing in the Park who do not pay their bills, “deadv beats,”as he styled them. Now we rise to a point of order and ask who did that malicious mischief. Was such acase ever known in this city? Did you ever hear of any one who did not pay on sight his bill the first time? Is there a man in this city who ever promised to pay a Poor old Saul of Tarsus. other- wise Paul the apostle, would cut but a sorry figure with his preaching Christ crucified and the Resurrec- tion of Jesus and similarold fashion- ed topic‘A, albeit he made a great stir in his day in the chief literary religious and commercial cities of the world. We never felt so sure of the great- ness and versatility of Chicago pul- pit talent as when we read over the list of topics discussed by its pastors last Sunday. Here are some of them: Looking at an Absent Savior: Bring- ing in Sheaves; A Redeemed Life; Alaska and Cuba; Reality in Relig- ion: Intimacy with the Almighty; Better to whistlethan to whine; Your Father’s Religion: A Noble Resolve; Ministry of Music; Capital and Com» pensatiOu; The Martyr Spirit; Eyes Aright; Living in the Future; The New Point of Viewi; while Dr. S. J. McPherson, in View of the painful fact that the good old Mosaic deca- logue is about worn out in Chicago and must be patched up, oran annex built discussed the “Eleventh Com- mandment." THE failure of the prosecution of the young man who tooka horse from the city pound last week just be- cause the council had neglected to designate a certain place as the city pound and have it plainly marked as such, was no reproach to themarshul or the police force of the city. The old police committee had neglected its duty to provide a pound. or have the councildo it.

The case was set for Tues- day morning. but as Mr. Haben‘s ut- torney did not come it was continued by mutual agreement till next Tues- day at 4 o’clock p. in.
