i Jones, of New York, a
s been holding meetings
vania among the miners
and has been instrumental in organ
izing some dozen or more secret
socialistic societies. No good ever
comes of these kind of orders. They
breed discontent and riot and there
should be some means devised to put
an end to them.
The Post is informed that Sea
side College will open with a larger
attendance than was at first hoped
for. Seaside College like every
other institution in Brunswick will
be a success. If every citizen who
has daughters to educate will send
them to our home college as they
should, instead of sending them off,
it will be a big success.
Applications for charters have
‘at last been made for a Driving
Association and an Artesian Water
Company. The Post has urged the
formation of jmt such companies
more than once, and feels satisfied
that both enterprises will be of great
benefit to Brunswick, and at the
same time yield the stockholders big
returns on the investment.
Statistics show the numerical
strength of the different railroad or
ganizations to be as follows:
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi
neers, 20,000; Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen, 18,000; Brotherhood
of Railroad Trainmen, 16000; Switch
men’s Mutual Aid Association, 6,000
Brotherhood of Railroad Conductors.

“The Atlanta Journal altogether
misconceives in supposing New Eng
land hates the South, says the Bos- ,
ton Herald. Thcrejs a set of narrow
politicians here who like to hear of
anything to the South's disadvan
tage, and who are swift to circulate
it and often to prevert its meaning, !
just as there i£ another set of politi
cians in the South who do not take
very broai views about New Eng
land- There are prejudices to over
come on both sides. A new genera
tion is growing up in New England, J
which does not know much about
them. It is largely owing to the fa< l
that our people are more and more
in the habit of reading neir«|Mipers
that give both sides of public ques
tmus. If the South will train up its
readers in the same way. taere need
not be much cous< rn about sectional
l ulyccU is the future.’’

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
The strange case of Dr. Jekyll and
Mr. Hyde him been generally allowed
to “take the cake” as regards improba
bility, but an inspector of the French
sanitary service notes a case of dual
existence which, if it does not throw
Mr. Stevenson’s creation into the shade,
at least is equally incredible.
According to M. Proust, a certain
Emile X , an avocat, is afflicted
with hysteria, manifested in him by un
consciousness and loss of sensibility,
lie goes into trances in court and can
not proceed witli his pleadings. He
loses his memory and forgets his pre
vious existence. He starts out on a
new life, becomes a different person,
and as such walks about, travels by
railway, stays at hotels, sleeps, pays
visits, buys, etc., and when restored to
his first condition is entirely- ignorant
of what took place w hen in his second
condition. He has quarreled with his
father-in-law, smashed valuables, torn
up manuscripts, contracted debts, left
restaurants without jutying his bills,
been charged with swindling and con
demned in default, and when in his
normal condition has known nothing
wliatever of any of these escapades.—

Neighbors In » Big City.
An instance of the entire indifference
which New Yorkers feel for people who
live next door to them occurred when
a gentleman attempted to find a man
whose address had been given as 259
West Twenty-third street. The address
proved erroneous. The gentleman in i
question lived and hail lived for many
years at 251 in that street. He is an I
ex senator, a man of great local promi i
nenee, and is known pretty well from i
one end of the city to the other, yet in
quiries at five or six houses in the im
mediate vicinity of 251 failed to dis
cover anybody who knew where the ex
Senator lived. The inquirer even asked 1
at 249 and 253, missing 251 by tui aeci !
dent, and even then he was unable to
find the house.
It is said that one of the most vexing
questions in English social life is cm
braced in tee phrase, “Ought we to call
i on hers” Apparently New Yorkers
i never have any trouble in deciding
whether to call or not upon people who
i live near them. They not only do not
call, ! nt apparently make the strictest
elb n.- to keep from acquiring informa
tioii of any nature about their neigh
lairs. —New York Sun.

Why the Dreamer* Fail.
Utopists and communists are set at
! work by rhe belief tliat equal justice is
the natural law of the world, and that
nothing keeps us out of it but the bar- ;
rier of artificial arrangements set up by :
the power and in the interest of a i
class. Break down that barrier by revo
■ lutionary legislation and the kingdom ,
I of equal justice, they think will come,
j Would that it were so! Who would Im- !
so selfish and soig-norant of the deepest
[ source of happiness as not to vote for ■
tlx* change, whatever his wealth or his
; place on the social coach might be:
\ Unhappily, neither equal justice nor
■ perfection of any kind is the law of the
world, as the world is at present toward
whatever goal we may be moving.
Health, strength, beauty, intellect.
i offspring, length of days are distributed
with no more regard for justice than
are the poweisi of making and saving
j wealth. One man is born in an age of
; barbarism, another in an age of civil j
j ization. No justice can be done to the
I myriads who have suffered and died. I
' Equal justice is far indeed from la-ing
i the law of the animal kingdom. Why
is one animal the beast of prey, another
i the victim? Why does an elephant live
! for two centuries and an ephemeral in
sect for a few hours? If you come to |
that, why should one sentient creature I
lie a worm and another a man ? In
earth and skies, in the whole universe. I
1 so far as our ken readies, imi>erfection I
reigns.
The man who in "Looking Back
| ward” wakes from a magnetic slumber
to find the lots of all men made just
and equal might almost as well have
awakened to find all human frames
made perfect, disease and accident ban
1 ished, the animals all in a state like
I that of Eden, the Arctic regions bear
ing harvestsand Sahara moistened with
fertilizing rain the moon provided with
! an atmosphere, and the solar system
which at present is so full of gaps and
wrecks, symmetrically completed. So
ciety, like tin' frame of the individual
man, is an imperfect organism. Youmay
help and modify its growth, but you
' eimnol transform it by revolutionary
violence, and if you try to do this the
i result will only be laceration Broses

Sea Turtles In New York.
1 Nearly 1,500 pounds of turtles are
made into soups, steaks, cutlets and
patties every week in this city. The
, turtles vary in weight from 10 to 400
i pounds. They arc captured on the
Florida coast and arc brought to the
city by steamers. In order to keep the
I turtles from crawling overboard their
flippers are tied together and the ma
rine reptiles are laid upon tlielr backs'
in colls of rope made for tliat purpose.
On arrival in this city the turtles are
placed in wooden boxes floating in the
East river just behind Fulton market.
They are fed upon leaves and
watermelon rinds. It is an interesting
sight to sei* a 400 pound turtle come to
the surface and take a bite of water
melon. A few are kept in the market
to attract buyers. As they lie upon
their backs day after day and gasp for
breath they excite the pity of passers
by. Their helpless and suffering con
dition is markedly at xnrianee with
their former liberty in the cool, green
sea, —Ernest Jorrold in New York Jour
nal.

The Arounder is authoritatively in
formed that the following was an actual
occurrence at the gospel tent meeting
on Niagara street, near Hudson. A
member had justi ceased speaking about
a cure of asthma effected by prayer
when a lank individual arose and asked
for the privilege of the floor.
“If you have had experience you
mav speak, brother,” said the presiding
officer.
“1 have ha l experience. My father
was sick with the asthma for fifteen
| years, and I. w:i finally brought to
pray for bis i .•<»•. y. (Inteliseinterest
I manifesteii among the hearers.) Ha
prayed fifty years and (emphatically)
I he died of the asthma.”
