HE WAS JUSTIFIED In Saying That the Women Ought to Leave Washitigton. , Senator Hill, taken all.in all, is a° very Sourageous, man. He has the courage to fs support the policy of the man.with whom he is at outs, and generally to say ou al] ozcasions what he think is right. -It takesa * traly great man to do this, Let any man. at all in public life, look into his own consciousness and see how far short of this he has fallen ; even those of us who pride our. selves on our independence of thought and expression, fall far short of our own ideal conception of what independence ought to. be, Senator Hill has lately spoken of society: in Washington ina manner that may cal! down on him the anathemas of the high social circley and the sneering remarks of the uathinking, but he is right.’ He says that men who attend banquets and parties nightly cannot be in a condition to attend to business, but government officials, including Congressmen and Senators, do this, The country should thank Senator Hill for calling attenti8n to the evil so fatal to good government. It is to be hoped that the leading news“papers of the country will continue the discussion until a reformation is forced.4 We do not pay men to go. to Wasttigeke to dance, This constant dress and parade leads to extravagance and extravagance to corruption and immorality. The salary of no official justified’ one continual round of pleasure, and curruption follows. ‘The official, therefore, is incapacitated mentally by the methods he must employ to get the means to keep the debaucheries up. When the Senator said that they should be packed away and sent out of Washington, so the men could attend to business, he had no slur for woman; that is he did not intend to infer that they were more guilty than the men, It requires the mixing of the two sexes to keep up the interest in parties and frolics and one of the sexes only is there for business. But women—some women— are raising the old Harry in San Francisco as well in Washington. ‘The woman Thou gavest me, tempted me, and [ did eat” (fall) has been repeated under varying cirumstances ever since Adam, It was a cowardly thing for Adam to say, but every son of Adam has repeated it whenever the Lord has walked in the-garden and found that one of them has been trespassing on forbidden fruit! That temptation seems to be a legitimate excuse—and a claim to legitimacy for five thousand years ought to give the man title by prescription—and hence Senator Hill may be justified in suggesting the removal of the temptation. “Dr. Brown will perhaps second the motion, says the Sun, Coming Events.’ ae If coming events cast their shadows before, then there will be a great shade thrown over Nevada City next Friday, indicating the greatest event of the season—The N.

T. Nilon. The Light of the Diamond. An expert\in. gems has lately called attention to a property in the diamond which bas not hitherte been fully apprecizted. In a prper.by Robert Boyle, published in the,transactions of the Royal society, mention is made of a diamond that became. phosphorescent simply by the heat of the hand, absorbed light by being held near a candle ‘and emitted light cu being briskly rubbed, The observations by Mr. Kunz, the gem expert referred to, confirm Boyle’s statement that diamonds become phosphorescent in the dark after exposure to
the sunlight cr electric light, but they also show that all diamonds emit light by being rubbed on wood, cloth» or metal. This property is an important one, aa it will enable the nonexpert to distinguish between the true diamond and other hard stones as well as paste, none of which exhibits this phenomenon. This property is evidently not electric, as ig clearly shown by its being visible when the gom is rubbed on metal. Blackie’s Ways. It is said that the late Professor ° Blackie had a quaint, ceremonious little way of expressing his reverence for the Wizard of the North. Whenever, through his long life, he passed Walter Scott’s house in Edinburgh, he would stand still, and, leaning on his stick, remain for a moment in silent meditation. Strangers were often puzzled when they saw the venerable figure of Professor Blackie, standing motionless in Castle street, his plaid blown by the wind, and his face wearing a look of dreamy abtraction. Another out of door note on Blackie is this amusing one: Calling on a lady, he said abruptly: ‘‘When I walk along Princes’ street, I go with a kingly air, my head erect, my chest expanded, stick swinging. Do you know what makes me do that? Well, I’ll tell you— just conceit!’ ° Past, Present and Future, The same object seen from three different points of view—the past, the present and the future—often exhibits three Gifferent faces fo us, like those sigubeards over shop doors which rep resent the face of a lién as we approach, of aman. when we Are in front and of “Hass Wher wo have ‘passed. eccrctticmnmnsnscts DR.

HAPPY HOMES, A Recelfpt that will Remove a Frultful Cause of Unhappiness. “John, I called you to dinner; why don’t you answer?” : “‘Can’t you see that I am tired and out 6f sorts?’ Why don’t you let me alene?” The husband has just come home from business and has stretched himself on the sofa, gloomily staring at the ceiling. This is not the first time he has returned in such ahumor. She is burt, and, sitting down by the window, gets ready to cry. : “Papa, why don’t you tum and eat?” His little daughter’s pleading prevails and he follows her to the table. His wife hurriedly brushes the tears from her eyes; she is too proud to show weakness—he too stubborn to apologize for his rudeness. There is but a half-hearted attempt at eating. ‘Your crusty temper has spoiled your appetite.” says the wife. Sheis wrong —it is the want o petite and a g an a digestion that has spoiled. his humor—and it takes a heroic effort for him to be amiable.
