thrown off at La Jose and taken
by, the Pennsyivania and Northwestern |

laid over night at La Jose. From Ma- |

delay occurs. It is understood that
the superintendent of mails has been |
making inquiry concerning mails in |
this section and we have reason to]
hope for better service. In the
meantime let the petitions that have
been started out be circulated in every |

produced, however, by putting the egg

Won His Way With Logan Carlisle.
Every official in Washington just now
a in gest of office,
and the treasury department hus prob-
ably more than its share of them. Offi-
cials know how it is themselves, how-
ever, and their good nature is almost su-
'perbuman. Among. the extra well bal
anced ones is Logan Carlisle, chief clerk
of the treasury. and to him came a youth
from Indiana, who wantad to know
about a place that he had mn view.
“It's this way,” said the youny man
after some talk. “I'm like the young man
who had his leg cat off by a locomotive.”
“How's that?’ inquired Logan.
“I'm in need of immediate attention.
“Oh, in that case,” laughed Logan,
“you'd better go to tae Emergency hos-

agreed on the spot to attend to his nveds

ANARCHY IN FRANCE.
~ Chicago Anarchists had in the United |
States. Vaillant’s corpse has hardly
had time to grow stiff before ancther
" erime of a similar and even more
"hideous nature occurs. The state of
mind which could lead a man to throw |
a bomb among a crowd of men and
"women, most of whom, and probably
all, were entirely unknown to him,
Surpasses the ordinary powers of anal-
ysis.
Since the certainty of swift execution
. seems to have little effect in prevent-
ing these crimes, it would seem as if
society had no means of
from the cowardly wretches who kill in |
. pure wantonness. - It is worth remem-
‘bering, however, that in this country
those who incite to Anarchy are held
equally guilty with the actual agents of
crime. In France, none but the bomb- |
~ throwers themselves have been pun-
‘ished. This may explain why law has
triumphed in this country and seems to |
be powerless to overcome the enemies
of society in France.—Buffalo Express. |

“ Asgistant pastor” is a new title for a
woman and seems to be so far held by
only one under this name. The pioneer
in this field finds her home and work in
Brooklyn, where, at a salary of §400s
year, she relieves the postor of man
routine duties that in a large city i
unwarrantably consume his time and
energy. The office might better be
called “pastor's wife's assistant,” for its
' work is taking a direct burden from the
shoulders of those long suffering wamen,
