Good Things Heard and Seen by Reporters on Their Round s. The good sayings of ex-She-riff John Finn are numerous, but probably one of the best was that given In explanation of his opposition to the construction of a new feces around Calvary Cemetery. At the time th9 proposition was made to tear down the oil unsightly fenc which formerly Inclosed the Catholic necropolis, and put up the very excellent one which now skirts It in, Mr. Finn was a member of the Calvary Cemetery Board. He did not look with favor on the Improvement and refused to vote for it.

Desiring to win him over the other members of the board began to question blm to ascertain Just what the grounds of bis opposition were and see if they could not reason him round to their side. "Surely, ilr. Finn," said one member of the Board, "you must admit that the fence is a disgrace?" "Oh, yes," he said, "it ought to be taken down. There is no question about that. "Then why are you opposed to building a new one?" "Because I don't see any necessity for it."

Xo technical training will do more for a man through life than the power to write well, for while a technical training admits him to one field, good writing opens innumerable avenues, and is more or less needed In all the nields of life. It may be considered the keystone of education, and certainly if a graduate has received a diploma and yet has not acquired some Councilmen to a fearful strain.

That magnificent programme of foreign policy which a Washington paper recently credited to the Administration was treated as "a newspaper fake" because, among other absurd novelties, it included a vigorous part to be taken by our Government in the partition of Africa. Our Liberia colonization scheme has been such a dismal failure and the republic planted there under the protection of the United States remains such a sickly and deformed infant on our hands that it would really be a kindly act for some of the powers now engaged in seizing African territory to steal it from us. Still the cable news from London is that some sort of an effort to embroil the United States with France on account of Liberia is anticipated.

Doubtless England and other powers jealous of Franch acquisitions in Africa would like to see the two great republics of the world antagonizing each other in Africa and fighting over such a miserable toy as Liberia but we have no interest in Africa and are under no obligations to pull European chestnuts out of the fire. If we are going to maintain our Monroe doctrine, enforce the warning we served upon Europe and discharge the obligation imposed by our interest in the affairs of our own continent, we will probably have enough to do protecting American republics from European aggression.

But -why should It be plain? We can make the trousers of red or yellow, the roundabout of blue or green, and we can put all sorts of trimmings and laces and ribbons on them.

She takes notes of the proceedings, whispers to her husband, nudges him with her fan and commits many other pretty absurdities. Quite likely his lordship gets a useful hint from her in making his rulings, as, for example, when the question arose whether the hostess at Tranby Croft had been Justified In stopping the game by a fraudulent pretext that she was feeling ill.

The Philadelphia bank business is a very bad one, indeed, and It seems to be traced to a political connection on the part of the men responsible for it. The political morality of Pensylvanla has never had full Justice done It. A Republican Journal soberly remarked the other day that Don Cameron was an unpopular man In Pennsylvania, but It at once added that if he desired to be a candidate for President of the United States his wealth would, of course, give him the support of his party in that State. Here was an admission that a man, not only notoriously unfit for the office, but notoriously disliked In the State, could, of course, carry the support of the dominant party there by the use of money.

Nowadays great publicity is given to crime and immorality, and the very fact that people are shocked and saddened by the knowledge of it is evidence of the improvement in public opinion and the general tone of society.
