Graft by Another Name, They call some things by pleasanter a nes in New York. For example, their "anti-tipping" law would be nown here as an anti-grafting law. & civil case that should have some nterest in this dispensary state is on ,rial in a New York city court before Justice IHascall. Samuel Sirkin, a nanufacturer, is suing a department itore for the payment of $1,555 81 vith interest since last Decem ber f, r oods delivered The department 3tore refused payment on the ground that Sirkin had violated a section of the penal code in paying to thu store's buyer a commission of $75. In other words, the luying agent for the store received about 5 per c:nt. from the manufacturer for taking the manufacturer's gouds, and that 5 per cent. was, of course, added to the bill to the department store. Under the Now York law the manu facturer that "influences" the sale in this improper manner forfeits the value of the goods sold. It is pop;.. larly believed that a somewhat siani lar syctem, carried to extremes, is responsible for the final downfall of the state dispensary. The rake ofts were, we presume, too magnificent to be designated as "tips."- [Columbia State. A Mixed School.

Green secured from W aird $75 Oa10 to help finance tho.sebeme of in proving the Savannalr harbor. 'f Savannah harbor improvements turnr out to be a swindle, and WNard's fo tune was swopt away. his contra at Fredericksburg also proved a failu and it was thin time that the wcaltt contractor deserted his wife, and sin< then has been wanderin anoout tl country under an assumed name. Ho is sixty-eight years old, gri haired, and a nervous wreck.

The ball passed through Killets luznz and lodged under the skin in the back, I1 It appears that Killet anl several of his friends were at Enoroo late Mon day afternoon and were the worse from liquor. They met Lawson, whom they a had never seen before, and Killetts a begged him to take a drink with him, which Lawson declined to do. Ho then walked away towards a drug store at a Enoroe. Kill(tts followed and after e talking to him gave young Lawson a Ssound thrashing.

H was 48 years old. "CIVILIZED'" BACKWARD. Despite the boasted beauty of Eng land, that country's civilizsition, so far as the administration of its landed heritage is concarned, has drifted back ward since tha day of Elizabeth. At that time, and long thereafter, the di sirability of an extensive sub-division of land, and of giving overy family at least so much attachment to the soil as grow out of the use of the village commons, was fully recognized. It was required that the cottage of every peasant should have at least four acres of land attached. Under this system of land division a splendid yeomanry grow up, the " backbone of the nation" in peace and war. Its decadence, the enclosure of the commons, and drift of the rural population to the cities has reduced the bankhone to punk. No triumph of con merco or war or diplomacy abroad can compensate for doery in manhood, and loss of num hors in its independent agricultural population at home. The conscience of the nation, represented by the party now in power, recognizes this, and strenuous eltorts are now being made to get the people back to the land, the land back to the people. Whoever imagines that the return of the people to their own-the rooccupying of broad parks and game preserves by groups of cottages, industrious farmers and spor tivo children-will impair or degrade the beauty of the land, has a perverted aesthetic sonse. A happier England will mean a more beautiful England. ROAD SIDE FRUIT TREES. Americans who visit Belgium with observant ey :, and note the rows of fruit tri's bordering the public roads, come away impresseed with a sense ot wasted opportunity in their own coun try. Just think what an abundance there would now be of fruit of all kinds as well as of umbrageous beauty every where, if the miles and miles of dull, shadeloss American roads had been planted with hardy ap; I , cherry,1lum antd paar ros ! Tuo cost would have boen slight, tr e amount of care re 'i uired, small, thL' returins, how large! Jn the neigh borhiod of townms anid cities alIso, the abundance of roadside fruit which the boys might be permitted, under slight r'strictions, to pick up and eat at. will, would have been a orotect ion to piv ate treo, which few persons no0w attempt to grow On aIo count of tho gonoral apprehension that the boys, not the cultivator, would get the fruit.
