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. » the fut it. 001 S^5£r&a™* THEY C4VT STI FF |!R. 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- ‘ ItHIMf 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 A CARD.
