Joshua Baker, a Mormon elder, arrived
in Chicago the other day, accompanied by
three wives und eight children. He was on
his way to Alabama to preach his creed, but
the hard-hearted Chicago jiolico thought he

Civil Service and Folitlcal Pledges.
! There is one part of the eloquent address
I which Secretary Lamar delivered at Charles
| ton yesterday which will attract a great
! deal of attention, and, perhaps, excite some
comment. The part is that in which Mr.
Calhoun's belief in civil service reform and
his regard for pledges made to the people
are pointed out. 1
Mr. Calhoun was not ari advocate of the
spoils system. Ho saw the great danger
of it, and, as he was a patriot and a states
man, ho opposed it. When he had the dis
posal of patronage, as the chief of one of
the great departments of the government,
he made no removals except for cause, and
he lost no opportunity to condemn the prac-,
tiee of using the offices for political pur
poses or for rewarding political or personal
friends.
Those who think that pledges which par
lies or public men make should not be kept,
if it is not convenient to do so, should read
carefully that part of one of Mr. Calhoun’s
speeches with regard to them which Mr. La
mar quoted. Mr. Calhoun was too great
and too good a man to play the part of a
demagogue. There were small but noisy
politicians in his day as well as at the pres
ent time, but they received no recognition
from him. Sincere and earnest, aiming al
ways to promote the welfare of the whole
country he had no sympathy with political
cunning, chicanery or deception of an y sort.
A promise to the people was in his estimation
as sacred as a promise to a personal friend,
and he would as soon have violated one as
the other.
Mr. Lamar took occasion to say that the
only things for which the President has been
criticised and abused are those which had
i the approval of Mr. Calhoun. The Presi
dent is a believer in civil service reform, and
has sincerely tried to enforce the civil ser
vice law. He has not desired to keep his po
litical enemies in office nor wished to with
hold any rewards from political friends. He
lias realized, however, that the spoils sys
tem, besides filling the civil service with un
fit anil incompetent men and women, threat
ens the country with a very grave danger.
He may not be a very thorough student of
the political history of the country, and
may not know what Mr. Calhoun's views
respecting the spoils system were, but his
common sense tolls him that it is a bad and
dangerous system. He feels that he could
do the country no greater service than to do
his part toward abolishing it. He under
stood, of course, when he announced his civil
service policy that ho would lie assailed, and
even ridiculed, by men in his own party,
and that it would require great courage to
carry it out. Ho felt equal to the task,
however, and tho people applaud him for
what he has done.
No one can say that he has not done his
part to keep faith with the people. * When
the history of his administration is written
there will be no broken pledges to record.
While he may not fill as large a place in
history ass Mr. Calhoun does, he will lie ad
mired for some of the most distinguished
virtues which cause the memory of that
grant statesman to lie honored.
Mr. Lamar did wisely in pointing out that
Mr. Calhoun was an ardent civil service re
former and that ho regarded pledges made
to the people as sacred. ‘ Some of the Demo
cratic politicians who have been finding
fault with the President on account of these
same things may be surprised to find that he
Is acting in harmony with tho teaching of
one of the greatest and purest of the leaders
of the Democratic party.
A Central American Union.
There apjx’ars to be some ground for the
report that a union of the Central American
States is about to be accomplished. There
are movements in that direction which are
exciting attention. The consolidation of the
four States has been discussed by Central
American statesmen for a long time, but up
to the present no satisfactory basis for a
union has been discovered.
Two years ago Barrios, President of
Guatemala, concluded that he would force
a union. He thought he would be supported
by Zalvidar, President of Salvador. He had
some sort of an understanding with him,
but when he was about ready to carry out
his scheme Zalvidar hesitated, and finally
declined to become the ally of Guatemala,
Costa Rica and Nicaragua also protested
against Barrios’ scheme. Barrios lost his
temper aud began a war upon Salvador. In
the first battle lie lost his life. That ended
the consolidation business for the time be
ing. Barrios’ widow, young, handsome
and rich, is now a favorite in New York
society.
The mum reason, it is believed, why Bar
rios’ scheme was not acceptable to the other
three States was that they feat o 1 that he
wanted to make himself dictator of the
whole of Central America. There is no fear
of Barrios now, and no one appears to be
striving to make himself dictator. It is not
improbable, therefore, that a union may lie
agreed upon. There will be no opposition
by the United States to a union, but this
government would hardly (leriiiit, without
interference, an uttempt to bring about a
consolidation by force of arms. Mexico op
posed Barrios’ scheme, however, and might
oppose any effort to form u union peace
fully.
If the Chattanooga Times is correct, the
Standard Oil Company owned the last
Legislature of Tennessee. A bill passed by
that body levies a revenue tax of SI,OOO
upon jobbers of illuminating oils in all
Tennessee cities of more than 10,000 in
habitants. The Times charges that the hill
was secretly passed, und thaEt the Standard
Oil Company resorted to bribery to secure
votes for it.
So it seems that General Master Work
man Powderly means to try the boycott on
labor journals that dare to criticise him#
The eternal fitness of things suggests that he
ought to change his title to General Master
Dictator.

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, APRIL 27, 1887.
The Boss of the Boodletnen.
According to our dispatches, Mr. Jake
Sharp, the man who is alleged to have fur
nished the money to bribe the boodle Aider
men in New York, was not ready for trial
when his ease was called on Monday. Ho
will have to be ready on May 11, however,
or show most excellent reasons why he isn’t.
The trial of Mr. Sharp is looked forward
to in New York with interest. There ap
pears to be a very great desire there to have
him serve a term in Sing Sing. Ho is
shrewd and rich, and, if reports of his
doings are correct, he is a very bad man.
Tho belief is that ho has been a bad man for
a good many years, and has done more than
any other person to oomipt Aldermen and
legislators. If he couldn't get what l;e
wanted from the city or State by asking for
it, his plan was, it Is said, to buy it. He
seems to have had no trouble to find
Aldermen and legislators who were willing
to be bought. The price which some of
them asked, however, was pretty High.
There has been a good deal of delay in
bringing Mr. Sharp to trial, hut it is proba
ble that the District Attorney has good rea
sons for the course he is pursuing. He may
have lacked the necessary evidence, or he
may have expected that Mr. Sharp would
have become a witness for the State, and
furnish the evidence necessary to convict all
the boodlemen. The trial is close at hand
now, however, and some sensational devel
opments may be looked for.
CURRENT COMMENT.
Arbor Day.
From the New York Times (Rep.)
Arbor day is coming by degrees in some parts
of the country to be as scrupulously observed
as that of Decoration day. Us institution was
a happy thought, and it is impossible to esti
mate the comfort, pleasure, health and wealth
which might already be traced to it.
Cleveland and a Second Term.
From the Nashville Union (Dent.)
The whole story is actually laughable; that
the President should make known his purpose
to countermand the work of bis friends m every
part of the United States, and practically turn
the wheel of fortune hack on the Democratic
party through two fellows who are not willing
to give their names, is supremely ridiculous.
Mr. Watterson’s Mistake.
fVom the Galveston News (Deni.)
Mr. Watterson says the President has from
the first had a genuine distrust of the party t hat
elected him. The trouble is that, Mr. Watterson
confounds the party w.th the politicians. The
President doubtless does entertain feelings of
distrust toward the politicians as a mass, and
therein is t lie secret of his having so well suc
ceeded in pleasing the great body of his party.
Words of Praise.
From the Atlanta Journal.
The Savannah News, one of the best newspa
pers in the South, shows gratifying evidences of
prosperity in donning recently an entire new
dress of minion and nonpareil, making it one of
the handsomest papers, typographically speak
ing, to be found in the South. No paper is a
more welcome visitor to the Journal office than
the News, its fairness, modesty and intelligent
comprehension making it a valuable guide. The
Journal most cordially extends its congratula
tions, with Hit! hope that the News may long
continue its prosperous course.

A CLUB TRAGEDY AVERTED.
What Camo of Words Betw-eon an Art
Critic and a Scudpt° r -
Prom the Sere York Herald.
“I bite my thumb at you. sir.”
“You dare bite your thumb at mo, sir!”
“Ilic, I do.”
“Sit down and chew cloves.”
Language like this -bitfer, galling words like
these—were heard in the hr >ad hall of the Lotos
Club not long ago. Every liveried servitor in
tho establishment, where artists solid with the
treasurer love to congregate, knew that each
panicuiar hair stood <>n end as these words
were hissed upon that eventful evening. Be
cause really it was not “clubby.”
\\ n *n sculptors and critics fall out there is
apt to be a muss. Some proud statue of human
clay is apt to be dashed and shattered on the
ground.
Gut of its noble line of thespians, critics, au
thors, journalists, stock brokers, men about
town and merchants, the Lotos has lost a
“prominent figure." They lost him by bounc
ing him. “ ’Tis true, ‘tis pity, and pity ‘Lis ‘tig
true.”
The “tiff” was in the case of Mr. Romeo Mon
tague and Mr. Tybalt Capulet, both of Verona,
between a Montague and a well, a Capulet.
This Mr. Montague, whose surname is Marks, is
an art critic, and Mi*. Capulet, <one who doth
moisten clay with—oh. yes, with water—a priest
at the shrine of art. They fell out. Why they
fell out aud how they fell out Is unimportant.
They fell out, and more is the pity of it. The
fiery moistener of clay, the maker of graven
images, which the said Montague did not fall
down and worship, stepped upon a lotos l*af on
the tiled lloor, and, slipping, jostled Monty.
The art critic goaded the sculptor to madness by
reminding him he was not plumb; that he was
off the perixiiidiclar.
Now, there are some tilings a man won't
stand, and one of them is being told that he is
wabbling on his base. So. with, a tine, sarcastic
smile, Capulet said: "What, ho! Proud Hebrew !"
After a pause he made a fine oratorical flourish
w ith his right arm, und continued: “He is an
art critic, and thinks he knows too much to talk
of art. Ila, ha! He, he!” For almost all of
this Montague would have forgiven him for the
love he bore his mistress, Art; but the “ila, ha!
He. he!" was maddening. It is a terrible thing
for a proud man to hear an adversary say, “Ha,
ha! lie, he!” And that is the way the row
began.
nontague gathered up his mantle and brushed
the venomous sculptor aside. Mark Mark's
contempt. The priest at the altar of art shook
violently with emotion, and remarked, in a
stage whisper, that he, was inclined “to mop the
door with aim.” But a.s Montague is a man of
goodly size, six feet high, with an arm sug
gestive of dallying with a smithy's heavy ham
mer, Capulet* in pity simply “cussed.” And
thereon hangs a tale. So it is said that Mon
tague Marks became the bouncer and Capulet
the bouncti-ee.
Order is restored in the halls of the Lotos
Club, and every servitor's particular hairs join
others in slick slaps or capillary tendrils. No
pistols have, been used and there has been no
run on coffee.
Where He Drew the Line.
Harper's Magazine for May.
One afternoon a half-drunken fellow’ got on
one of the Louisville and Nashville sleeping-cars
bound North. When the conductor showed him
to his seat he found a clean, well-dressed, gen
tlemanly-looking colored man to be his partner
in that section and occupying a seat facing his.
He at once began in a drunken fashion to abuse
the negro, accusing him of trying to “set up for
white folks,” dt-ing the dude act in charcoal,
etc., and finally got up from his seat, declaring
that he'd,“be d——d it he’d set thar aud be out
done by a blasted nigger in a high silk hat.”
The conductor, t o keep the pence arid prevent
any disturbance in his car, led the indignant
i*tt.ron of old Kentucky bourbon to a seat in
another-part of the car. Next morning the
lriuiken man. who was not a bad fellow at
heart, had sobered up considerably, and, with
some remembrance of his previous misconduct,
went over to the colored man's seat and com
menced to apologize by saying he had been “a
little off his base" the* evening before, and did
not mean any harm by anything he, might have
said: that he hadn’t anything against the "nig
gers," and was always their friend when they
behaved themselves. So he hoped the stranger
would see that in anything that had passed he
had meant no personal offense to him. "That
is all right, sir,” said the colored man, with po
lil.mess. "1 saw your condition at once, and of
course, under the circumstances, did not con
sider you responsible for your acts at that time.
Your apology this morning makes the amende
honorable. Allow me'—at the same i ime offer
ing his card to his former persecutor. The
drunken fellow drew hack as if he had been shot.
“Look a-here, Mr. Nigger,” ho cried, in great
excitement, "1 had made up my mind to stand
trie cut-away coat and the stove-pipe hat. but
i'll be denied it' I can stand a nigger with a
kyard!”
“He’s a Brick.”
From the Working Binj.
Very few of the many thousands who use the
above slanj; term know its origin, or its primi
tive signifleanot!, according to which it is a grand
thing to say of a man, "He's a brick." The
word used in its original intent implies ail that
is brave, patriotic and loyal. Plutarch, in liis
life of Agesilaus, King of Sparta, gives us the
meaning of the quaint and familiar expression.
On a certain occasion an Ambassador from
Epirus, on a diplomatic mission, was shown hy
the King over his capital. The Ambassador
knew of the monarch’s fame— knew that though
nominally only King of Sparta, he was ruler of
t.reeee—and lie had looked to see massive walla
rearing aloft their embattled towers for the de
fense of the city. But to his surprise he saw
nothing of the kind. He marveled much at this,
and let spoke of it to the King.
"Sire." said he, "X have visited most of the'
principal towns, and find no walla reared for de
fense. Why is this?”
" Indeed, sir Ambassador," replied Agesilaus,
"thou oaust not have looked carefully. Come
with me on to-morrow morning and X will show
you the walls of Sparta.”
Accordingly, upon (Hie following morning, the
King led his guest out upon the plain where, his
army was drawn up in full array, and pointing
proudly to the patriot host he said:
“There thou beholdest tho walls of Sparta
-10,000 men and every man a brick."
Frank Gould’s Honey.
From the New York Sun.
Jay Gould's son Frank accompanied five (Y
-lumbia College students, who were arrested for
street t.. ■alienee at night, to the Fifty-first
street police station, whore they asked release
on bail, and Police Justice Smith was summoned
to take it. Ife demanded Jig.*) for each. Y<mug
Gould at once ran home and got $l,OOO in cash,
which he offered to the magistrate as i,nil.fur

While the ball proceedings were pending a
foundling babe, whom a polieunan had niciced
up in .Madison avenue, was brought in. It was
a girl, neat, looking, and her ch,thing was cleaner

about $30,000 more. Of course this set the Ga

places.” Asa matter of fact, however, the
Prince did not play a single game nor win nor
lose a single penny during his entire stay in
Hungary.
The lucidity of many English ideas concerning
America is beautifully apparent in an item in

ing to a friend the merits of a ease he had on
the calendar relating to a contract for wooden
water pipes, known as “pump-logs,” which
involved t‘ie size of the auger used in boring

Smith, your story augurs a bore.” Peals <d
laughter followed, and the poet’s wit as usual
became the centre of attraction.
A German official has been recommending
the extensive planting of basket willows on the
slopes of railway embankments and evacua
tions, and particularly where the soil is loose.
These willows have lx*cn tried on one of the
principal railways of Prussia and have answer
ed admirably. A j*erfect network is made by
the roots, which binds the whole surface firmly,
the thick green growth transforming the raw
and ghastly gashes in the earth int<* a beautifi 1
thicket. The men who take care of and wut* h
the track cun easily care for the willows, yvhicu
grow readily iu dry as well as wet soil, if it is a
little loose, and where there is market for
basket material the growth can le profitable.

GERMS.
Their Universal Prevalence, Dangerous
Character and How They Live
and are Killed.
The Gel-mans consume large amounts of
uncooked po*'k, and often get living animals
called trichina* into their blood,which cause
the most terrible death. Americans draw
in the germs of disease and death with every
breath. Malaria, miasma, sower gas and
the thousand poisons in tire air, in food and
in water are at war with health mid life all
the while. The blood that circulates in hu
man veins is composed of numbers of small
corpuscles that resemble animals, and when
anything poisonous gets into the blood it
becomes just Like stagnant water, full of
living animals that feed upon each other
and upon the blood itself. And yet uo one
person in fifty is free from blood poisoning
in some form. Every moment of the life,
whether awake or asleep, a million poison
ous animals, invisible to the naked eye, are
feeding upon the very elements that make
and sustain life.
These are facts -they are solemn truths —
and they demand the most serious attention.
These germs must be lulled: they must be
annihilated. Hut how? Prof. Austin Flint,
of Bellevue Hospital College, New York,
says: “The judicious use of alcoholic stimu
lants is one of the striking characteristics
of progress in the practice of medicine dur
ing the last half century,” while Dr. J. I\
Gilbert, of Lyons, N. Y., says: “From my
experience in the treatment of chronic dis
eases of a wasting and debilitating nature I
have frequently found it necessary to advise
the use of stimulants, and in my opinion
Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey for purity and
other desirable qualities cannot be surpassed
for such purposes. Its action seems to be
that of a pure stimulant, with none of the
inebriating effects which are too often found
in so-called medicinal whiskeys.”
When we consider tho terrible amount of
poison that is in the blood, and the misery
and death it is causing, and when we realize
that all its germs can all be driven out by a
stimulant (not intoxicant) like Duffy’s Pure
Malt Whiskey, we have cause for thankful
ness that modern science is doing so much
for mankind in removing disease, destroy
ing its cause and bringing health and happi
ness instead of misery and death. Most of
the leading people of the land are realizing
the value of this Whiskey, and many whose
prejudices have heretofore kept them en
tirely from the use of spirits are seeing its
pure and valuable qualities in warding off
diseases, and use it regularly in their homes.

ENORMOUS CONSUMPTION

Quinine, Belladonna and Capsicum,
Favorite Remedies among
Physicians.
G. 000,000 ounces cl' Quinine are consumed
annually. No other remedy known to
physicians is used to the same extent,
though Belladonna and Capsicum are prime
favorites among physicians. Qululform
is a substitute for Quinine, having all the
remedial virtues of Quinine, without its
disagreeable and dangerous effects, and
©Qulniform Plaster is a
happy combination of
Qulhiform, Belladonna
and Capsicum, With other
ingredients, and is, as
common sense would In
dicate, a much higher
grude of plaster than tho
public has hitherto
I. known. The Malaria or
Agis Si™ h In- and tonic
fcbk Watkb. virtue of Qulniform, and
the pam-killing action of Its other Ingre
dients, are applied to the system through
the pores of the skin. Qulniform Plaster 13
a phenomenal pain-relieving and curative
remedy. For Malaria and all of the aches,
pains and ills for which Quinine and Plasters
have been used, it will be found to be
decidedly preferable. Qulniform Plaster
