A man named Moonlight in a candidate
for governor in Kansas. Ife can’t lie a
prohibitionist, for moonlight is brightest
when the moon is full.
A Brasilian journal gives an account
of a great reception given to Prince Lco-
poldo at the white house, in Washington,
on June 15, “at which Prince Cleveland
was present.”
Evkhy man has it in hin power to do
the world some good. Of course a good
many men would have to die to benefit
the world any; but then we ail have
different ways of doing things.
Maud IIowk, the authoress, has discov
ered t hat the fashionable American fam
ily is the family with one child. Maud
herself is an only child. But fashion gets
badly left when it tries to regulate the
twin business.
Rev. Geo. O. Barnes, the mountain
evangelist of Kentucky, says that lie has
made his trip around the world with his
wife, son and two daughters entirely on
faith. This may be called the champion
deadhead party of the season.
Gov. Aimiett, of New Jersey, got mad
and wanted to whip a reporter the other
day because it was reported that he was
going to marry a rich widow. It seems
that what made the governor mad was
the fact that file report was untrue.
Ir Mrs. Parsons thinks she is another
Joan of Arc she should make an effort to
undeceive herself. She is only a very
ordinary female blatherskite. The
country is not in the mood to hear the
gospel of hate and murder preached any
longer, even by a woman.
Mr', Jcmtin McCarthy is now on Ids
way to this country. He will be welcomed
as a graceful novelist, an eloquent
speaker, an accomplished parliamen
tarian and, over and above nil, as a
patriot who lias labored to secure for
Ireland that which An erica possesses—a
government of the people, for the people
■.and by the people.
Information 1 from the White Sulphur
Springs states that a flutter has been
caused hv an episode at a champagne
party there, when u young married lady
of fashion pulled oil' her slipper and.
tilling it with champagne, gave it to a
young lawyer in the party and he quailed
it down. It is said that the young lady
is a Washington, D. C., beauty.
It is very evident that a concerted
movement is on foot to Injure the bu-i-
»ess of the fashionable caterer. .V lady
v-cently died in England from eating
game pie at her own wedding breakfast,
and now fifty persons have been laid
low in Illinois from eating chicken salad
upon a similar occasion. The funeral
baked meats did but coldly furnish forth
the wedding table.

it makes a sensible man impatient to
read (lie dogmatically advanced reasons
of scientists (?) anent the recent earth
quake. The language of most of these
scientists (?) in accounting for the
Charleston calamity is mere technical
jargon. Gullible people who read their
effusions think they are deep, when the
t rutli is they are only muddy. Seismic
disturbances have been studied for thou
sands of years, and the result has been
as many theories as students. The
truth is, nobody knows the cause of an
earthquake. But the most reasonable,
the most scientific and the most generally
pled theory heretofore has been re
jected, probably because it is old, by
the wiseacres who are sizing up the
Charleston calamity. We refer to the
theory of the internal heat of the earth.
1‘rof. McGee tells a aping continent that
the recent shaking up of two millions of
srpuu'e miles was caused by an “internal
land slide.” Who ever heard of an inter
nal land slide before? No geologist down
to Prof. McGee ever heard the expression
before, and the latter evidently coined it
for tlie occasion in Charleston. “Inter
nal lan i slide,” indeed! The next time
we hear from Prof. McGee he will be
suffering from a severe attack of inter nal
bald head. Professor McGee, in the
presence of an earthquake, is as helpless
and as ignorant and as badly frightened
as the meanest bootblack in Charleston.
The name of Col. A. H. Belo, proprie
tor of several Texas papers, has recently
been connected with the vacant Austrian
mission. Mr. Belo lias had the company
of Mr. Cleveland during his summer va
cation in the Adironducks in 1884,1885
and the present year. While they are
intimate acquaintances, it is said at the
state department it is not likely
i hat Col. Belo would accept the office if
tendered him, and the president is not
liaviy to otter it to Mr. Belo, or to any
body else. It is not regarded as proba
ble that any representative will be sent
to Vienna during President Cleveland’s
present term.
Perhaps the most exciting royal ath
letic exhibition the world has ever seen
was that performed by Prince Alexander
in hopping on and off the Bulgarian
throne. He seems to have broken all
previous records. First his royal nibs,
the czar, pulls a string and Alexander
turns a double back somersault off' the
throne. Then Bulgaria raised a reassur
ingly sympathetic howl and he takes a
flying leap on again, and proceeds to do a
great contortion act for the edification of
the crowned and bald heads who have
hired boxes to see the show. After this,
he does a juggling act with the Bulgarian
crown, balancing himself tivst on one foot
and then on the other, and upon the ad
vice of Bismarck, ends by making a
championship high standing jump from
tlip throne into oblivion. There is agreat
future before Prince Alexander, if he will
come to America and apply himself earn-

A CHEAT EDITOR.
Mr. George W. Childs lias received
pressing entreaties from eminent men in
all parts of the country urging him to
accept a nomination for the presidency.
The Baltimore American declares that
even Tilden wrote to Mr. Childs on the
subject, and that Mra. Grant was “per
fectly wild in her entreaties for him to
accept.” The New York Sun takes
occasion to comment on Mr. Childs’
positive refusal to lie a condidate for
an office for which lie lias no taste.
Since Editors Dana and Childs
met at one of the Farmers’
Club dinners the New York Sun
has been very cordial in its praises of the
Philadelphia publisher. It says: “Mr.
Childs’ no means no. There is not a par
ticle of political ambition in his nature.
The position which lie takes may be re
garded as final. Flo will not be a candi
date; and although many of his friends
and admirers may regret the decision,
his modest and sensible attitude toward
the American people who want to boom
him can hardly fail to strengthen their
esteem. Mr. Childs is at this time one
of the best and happiest men in the
United States. If he were elected presi
dent lie would be just as good as he is
now, but we doubt whether he would be
us happy.” ________
THE TURTLE STORY.
An unusual turtle story comes from
Rhode Island. A man caught a huge
mud turtle. He cut off the head of the
turtle and dragged its body a half mile
to his house, where he placed it upon a
stone wall, where it, peacefully reposed
all night. In the morning the gentleman
was surprised to find that he had two
turtles instead of one, and still more in
teresting, the second, which was a match
for the first in size and appearance, was
alive. It proved to be a female, and the
pathos of the situat ion appeared when ir
was made evident that the devoted fe
male had tracked her dead mate out of
the marsh and followed him
to hiss resting place on the
stone wall. This is claimed by Rhode
Island journalists to be a signal proof of
female devotion in the turtle species.
Wo don’t wish to throw any discredit on
the beautiful assumption, but it strikes us
that the devotion of the lady turtle
would have been more conspicuous if
she had brought along with her the head
of her dead mate and a bottle of glue.
Females of every species are devoted, but
then they hardly ever ran the thing into
tiie ground. Little Rbody’s turtle story
has a moral to it.
REOBCiE NEEDN’T CROW.
George Augustus Sal a says that on his
father’s side his ancestors were Roman
gens, whose names are to he found in
scribed on the marble tables of the Fasti
Consulates in the capitol at Rome. His
family has given two cardinals to the
church in Italy, and one grand inquisitor
to Spain. All that amounts to nothing.
The ancient family is not tobeblnmed for
George Augustus. On the other hand
lie possesses painfully unquestionable
documentary evidence to prove that his
great grandmother danced on the tight
rope at the carnival of Venice, in the
year 17G3, and that a great aunt of his
kept a tripe shop at Como during the
Italian viceroyalty ,of Eugene Beau-
harnals.
A soi.icrrors regard for the comfort of
tlie gentler sex has not hitherto been a
leading characteristic of eastern newspa
pers, and we are glad to note that a
change is coming over the journalistic
profession in Boston, at least. The Post
of that city, in a new start-off, sets, seem
ingly, a rather meek and lowly standard
for itself in hoping “ that in its eight-page
shape it will make just as good a bustle
as ever.”
That was a good point which Editor
Blackburn, of the Daily Madisonian,
made on Bill Moore, of the Augusta
Evening News, in the Madisonian of
September 14 about the precious stones
he had imported. The Madisonian is one
