The most confirmed jobbers and the Empire Slate Senate doubtless contains its share of them hesitate on hearing the creaking of eager prison doors.

Truly Amannf. Arlington Advocate. The increase in the circulation of The Boston Globe is something phenomenal, and, as that paper well puts it, "amazing." The averago circulation of the daily for March exceeded and the average of The Boston StrxoAY Olobk reached 09,005. Last year In the fame month the daily average was 00,073, and the Sunday average was 62,500. Just and Honorable.

What He Infers from "CtUMrt." To the Editor of The Globe I think "Frederic's" statement is pretty nearly correct, and that it might be well for "Mr. Toodles'' to know that a penurious man is not necessarily a penniless man. I cannot see that "Frederic's" letter is more insulting to the prohibitionists than "Toodles' is to the anti-prohibitionists. DrinK-ing does not necessarily make a drunkard, as would imply when he says: "'Frederic's' method of refonn is to make drunkards of the whole world." I suppose we are to infer from "Gilbert's" letter of April 3 that he considers it hotter to getflrnnk than to drink moderately. I am sorry that "Bert" has such weak acquaintances.

F. I Cives the Answer. To the Editor of the Globe: Aa "Eugene" asks me to solve the problem about dividing the $10,000 between four sons, I would say that each one gets $2722 5C. The rule for working this or similar problems would come under the head of "partial payments." which "Eugene" and other readers of the column will find in anv arithmetic. In this case would be the amount withdrawn each time.

Their owners look carefully after their comfort, as anxious when they begin to bark as is a mother when her dog begins to cry. In the morning the dogs with long hair are carefully combed and brushed, having a toilet that lasts as long as a woman's. During the day, if the little dears get rumpled, out come the brush and comb and they arc set to rights again.

He Will stand in the history of Ireland, as Washington does in ours, as the Fatbor of his country. MAINE DEMOCEATS.

If our Republican opponents have taken courage from any supposed dissensions in the ranks of the Democracy of the Pino Tree State, the harmonious gathering of the State committee at Augusta will cause a disagreeable awakening from their pleasant dream. The Democracy of Maine is united, wideawake and vigorous. It does not propose to sacrifice its organization upon the altar of disaffection concerning minor details when there are great principles at stake. Realizing that the triumph of Democracy is for the interest of the country they have no idoa of surrendering the citadel. Because the conduct of their national leader does not in all respects meet their views tbey will not desert him.

In essentials he is with them, and they sustain him against the common enemy. Their resolution endorsing the President is right. A splendid earnest of the intention of the Maine Democracy to back up their words by deeds was shown in the decision to call their convention for the nomination of State officers at a day earlier than that set by the Republicans. They will go ahead and choose their candidates, adopt their platform, and appeal to the people on merits of Democracy, and not on the mistakes of the Republican party or the Republican platform. They will take a manly, determined stand on all the great questions of the day.

and will enter the fight to win. All honor to the Democracy of the Fine Tree State. THE MILK IN THE COCOAJrOT. The Worcester School Committee has just reached the position attained some three or four years ago by the School Committee of Boston. It wants no evening high schools.

We presume the reasons are much tho same as those which animated the Boston committee at that time. Protest as much as they now may to the contrary, the then members of the Boston committee dreaded the evening high school because it would not have sufficient tone. Mechanics, and other persons who worked for a living would attend, and, as a consequence, their clothing would not always be the their hands free from the marks of toil Many will remember the bitterness ness with which certain of the school authorities protested against holding the sessions of the evening high school in the regular high school building, almost openly declaring that the building was too good for such uses. The persons attending would track in mud and otherwise defile the floors and furniture. But all that is past now.

The evening hierti school is deemed even by many of those who then opposed it as one ot the most useful of our educational institutions. Tho young men and women who attend have given the lie to the assertion ttiattheir manners were such that they could not bo trusted to enjoy the privileges of an expensive building. They have proved that more orderly, well-behaved seekers after knowledge never crossed the threshold of a school house. As wo have said, the committee of Worcester has just reached the point where the Boston committee stood then. Tho members of the Worcester committee may not admit it, even to themselves, but a large part of their opposition to a compulsory evening high school is due to the fact that they do not wish their red-tape interfered with or their fine school buildintrs used by those whose struggles for a livelihood prevent participation in the benefits of the day schools.

EDITORIAL POINTS. Evidently our friend George Flannagan Williams made a favorable impression on President Cleveland while fixing the Dedham Pogt Office deal.

The Boston Globe. When The Glodu began its life the field was supposed to be covered, and a newcomer was thought to have but a small chance for existence. But as General Butler pithily remarks, "there is always room on top." The Idea is to get on top, and The Globe seems to have got there.

Its enormous increase in circulation is astonishing, and anybody who will the figures wo give iu another part or the piper will appreciate the strides made by both the Daily aud Sunday Globe within the past year, and will begin to wonder whj' it has outstripped its older contemporaries. Good management aud a knowledee of what the public wants is the secret of its success; and the lack of these will always nad a newspaper lagging behind the times. $3.00.

Those not skilled in dog lore probably think the black and tan dog to be the great American dog. Yet of all the hundreds of dogs here entered not a dozen are of the common black and tan breed. The recent increase in the number of blooded dogs has teen wonderful.

Even more surprising is the change in the breeds themselves. Styles are changing constantly. The jaw of the bulldog, the curve of his fore legs, the width of his skull, the head of the mastiff, the snake-like cranium of the greyhound, the length of ears of the King Charles spaniel, the nose of the pug, the coloring, markings of the hair all meg Stomach, which wia be seni I- KL. dSirTt apT A Magnanimous Correspondent. To the Editor of The Globe: comments on my letter show that be was both hit and hurt, by that portion of it which "Gilbert" corroborated.

"Gilbert" quoted my language correctly, and thereby rendered it needless for me to state that whole argument was written by resorting to the clumsy trick of changing "penuriousness" to "penurv." Therefore, "Gilbert" annihilated "Toodles" by unconsciously exposing the latter's attempt to make me appear to have said something absurd. I am grateful to the Chelsea literatus. I am magnanimous. I will forego commenting on his very queer statement that a temperate use of intoxicants is "more despicable than drnnkenness and savors of hypocrisy." The writer himself must have been astonished when be saw that statement in print. I will content myself with merely complimenting ''Gilbert's" erudition by propounding to him somo interesting and original linguistic inquiries: 1.

What are the oidy two countries in continental Kurope whose names are spelled by the inhabitants the same as in English 2. What name of a common flower is pronounced and spelled the same in English and French? 3. What name of an annoying insect is pronounced and spelled the same in Eng-lish and Spanish? 4. hat particle of negation is pronounced and spelled the same in English and Italian 5. What name of a delightful beverage is pronounced, but not spelled, the same in English and German? Fkbdkkic.

Kay Kick. Believes in a Protective Tariff. To the Editor of The Globe: I have been greatly interested in the "People's Column." especially in the discussions on temperance, for I believe that to be one of the greatest questions of the near future.

The labor question is not of much less importance, and the reason why I send this to The Glokk is to get some of the different ideas on the tariff question. I iirmly believe the tariff should be on everything that can be manufactured in this country, both eatables and wearables, sufficient to keep out all or nearly all foreign products. Of course there are many things that should be admitted free, but we should have the full benefit of the profits in this country if we do lose some trade with other nations on account of it I have never heard any arguments in favor of free trade that to me seem worth considering, and I should like to learn the opinions of some other readers of Tun Giobb on this subject, r. u. i.

Hyde Park. Want3 Plans for Houses. To the Editor of The Globe: Some time ago I read in the "People's Column" a very interesting item on architecture. Being somewhat interested in that ing for sale Indian baskets and native fancy work of their own manufacture, until their presence and their booths at these places have come to be as much expected and as much a part of the occasion as the horse trots or the meetings. In this way they have come to be widely known throughout this part of the State.

The most prominent member of the family is Zemeelema. She is a good-looking, full-blooded Wampanoag Indian, and is constantly to be seen actively and industriously wonting to relieve the poverty of her family. Though 40 years of age she appears scarcely 25. It is largely through her efforts that public sympathy is being waked np to an understanding of the wrongs the "pale faces" have heaped upon herself and her mother in these latter days in much the same maimer that her ancestors were persecuted way back in colonial days. On Betty's Neck, on the Shore of Lake Assawampsett, in a little cabin that stands alone in the woods, live tho Mitchells.

Tne mother, Zervia Gould Mitchell, is 79 yearR old, and is beyond a question of doubt a genuine, thorough tired Indian. She is remarkably intelligent. Once, in her younger days, she was a school teacher, and her daughters, Oewelema and Wootonekanuskee, are well-educated, bright women. with plenty oi understanding and a set purpose to reclaim their lanre landed estate. This estate includes about 400 acres, stretchins back from Betty's Neck and tiie shores oi the Assawampsett into the town, and includes about forty or tii'ty farms, and a large tract of valuable woodland, estimated to bo worth in round figures $100,000 at the least.

The present incumbents of these farms hold quit-claim deeds, and the old Indian woman and her daughters say that their unfeeling, self-asserting neighbors have from time to timo encroached upon their land, and literally "frozen" them out of their own territory, until at last they have been driven down to the shores of the lake, and they are now trying to either force them on into the merciless waves of the majestic sheet of water, or move away altogether from the home of their youth and old age. "These are the old Squim lots," says the mother, "which Unpaquin, the second husband of Annie, tho only daughter of old King Massasoit, having fought for in one of the Indian wars, received in compensation for his good service, and he recorded them for his grandchildren. I am his grandchild in the sixth generation, the only one living, and why can I not have my rightful There seems to be no law for the Indian. I do not desire to awaken any zeal that is not to knowledgo, but all the facts in my possession relating to my ancestry and myself are undeniably true. When the pale faces first came to these shores in 1C20.

powerless and helpless outcasts, in the cold December, Massasoit was king and ruler over a large part of Massach usetts with Rhode Island and part of Connecticut When their scanty provisions were gone, and they were left in a state of starvation, had they not received timely aid from the noble red man they woulu have perished then and there, but what has been tho reward to Massasoit and his descendants from the time of the landing of the Puritans down to the present hour? Nothing but deception and neglect. I have teen seeking redress for the wrongs done me and mine for tho past twenty-live years, by petitioning the Legislature to remove the State guardianship of my lands, and to pay for the wood cut from them by Benjamin T. Winslow of Fall River. Governor Gardner appointed a committee to hear my case. Mr.

Winslow made a report that $1500 worth of wood had been cut in one winter from the Squim lots, and when asked why he did not put that money in the hank for the benefit of the heirs, replied that he did not know there were any heirs. It seemed as though when it was thought by him that all the Indians were dead, one was dug right up out of the grave, I have never been paid for the wood that that agent acknowledged to have cut.

It is claimed that American breeders are now having as good results as the English with some breeds, but still imported dogs carry off many of the best prizes.

Mr. Uladstonk has spoken, and in every corner of the civilized world today hid acbeme for the settlement of the Irish question will be tho first theme of discussion. It was more than a speech, it was action.

Kverr sentence was a deed, and when the speaker sat down he had done himself what he once mistakenly said Jktf'krmon Davis had done "created a nation." Ireland's day of deliverance has come, an Irish parliament in tho near future is Assured, and with it will come the revival of liborty, the retnrn of order, and the biesuinifs of prosperity to the Irish people. We are aware that Mr. Gladstone has as yet only proposed the resurrection of Ireland as a Belf-ffnvci'ning nation, and that the British r'arliament has not yet ratified the proposition. Nevertheless, come what will, and whether tho proposition be adopted or rejected by this 1'arliament, Ireland's emancipation from English rule, save only for Imperial purposes, is as (rood as accomplished.

Parliament may defeat this present measure, and Mr. Olabstonk may be, for the moment, overthrown, lint tho word he has spoken cannot be unspoken it will return in triumph, even if it be temporarily Bet aside if not on his lips, then on the lips of another Minister whose coming will be close at hand. No event favorable to freedom in this ae is at all comparable in importance with this, unless it be the signature of tho Emancipation Proclamation bv Abraham Lincoln. The restoration of Hungarian nationality, to which Mr.

ladsti referred in bis masterly speech, offers the closest parallel to it. When, crushed by the Prussian victory at Sadowa. Austria conceded a separate legislature to the Hungarians, and agreed to the creation of the federal empire of Aus-tro-IIungary, the dream of Drak was realized, and tho labors of Kossuth bore fruit And so what seemed but yesterday tho dream of Butt and the forlorn hope of Parxkt.l is today within clear sight of realization. O'Covnkll's agitation for the repeal of the Union, which appeared to have perished beyond hope of resuscitation, is victorious after forty years. The gallant people of Ireland who have kept alive tho spirit of patriotism from feneration to generation have reason to be hanny today.

Their kinsmen in this country and elsewhere who have sustained them with their sympathy and their substance have tho right to rejoice with them. The details of Mr. Gladstone's scheme are not yet fully disclosed. Put enough is known to justify the most sanguine anticipations. The establishment of a separate and substantially independent parliament in Dublin, to consist of two housed, with power to make laws for Ireland on ell purely Irish affairs, as distinguished from affairs that concern the empire as a whole, is.

we know, formally proposed by the first minister of the crown. This is enough. All the other provisions of Mr. Gladstone's scheme are comparatively or small account. '1 grand fact of the situation is that a Pntish prime minister, with an apparently strong majority at his bark, is before us as the author of a hill giving home rule to Ireland.

When we remember that it is less than ten years ago that the movement led Ly CkaUBI BmwAUT Pabnkll was inaugurated; that the Nationalist party is the growth of less than a decade; that until within two yean its aim was regarded as ohirnerical, and that Mr. Gladstone himself, when last in of-rico. treated home rulo as en i in-possible demand, and dealt with its leaders as criminal conspirators, the revolution recorded yesterday must be admitted to be astounding the swiftnoss with which it has moved onto its culminating success.

Crowds watched the trick dog in one ring while other crowds watched the procession of prize winners in the other ring.

Before tbe various kennels, especially those of pointers, stood admiring groups closely packed. In one kennel a pointer accidentally got free and instantly proceeded to carry out some grudge on his neighbor by burying his teeth in that neighbor's left ear. Tho other dogs, excited by the fight, joined in, and things were very lively for a A contemporary makes the aggravating slip of speaking of Congressman Long as a candidate for governor, meaning, of course, a candidate for senator. It is one of the cases in which the desk editors, tho compositors and the proof readers seem to conspire with Mr. llotcropheiny to embitter the existence of the poor paragrapher.

Houses are not built to accommodate chimneys, but chimneys placed according to the internal arrangement. A personal inspection would alone discover the cause of your annoyance.

An imperfect draught, an accumulation of soot, a brick which has fallen into the flue. or perhaps a defective stove, may produce the trouble. A great many chimneys are built in these economical days with but a sinerle flue to accommodate two or three storiew, and thus it is necessary to closo all due holes not in actual use. alien bricks are of common occurrence, and can bo removed by drop- SPECIAL NOTICES. character through ttie productions of the writers therein, and continually gather information.

I am a Christian woman, but is that the blessed religion Christ teaches us?

Tho pertinacity of Zemeelema has from tune to time enlisted the sympathy of wealthy and prominent men from all parts of the Stale, chiefly those who are engaged in literary work, and have visited the Mitchells for their historic interest, and who, learning of their position, have become their firm friends anil taken steps toward bringing about the ends so much desired by the poor Indian family. It has lately been reported that several of these gentlemen have had an understanding with eacn other. an. I that now active work is being made bv them to secure the old reservation to its aboriginal owners, or her descendants in the persons of the Mitchell family. The Indians" firm conviction of late that they will speedily win their cause adds to the general belief that at last something tangible has been discovered that will lead to a victory for them, and their recent visits to tho registry of deeds at, Plymouth, and their persistent overhauling of the ancient deeds, is no doubt the cause of their hopefulness.

Mrs. Mitchell's husband, who died in 1S5H. was a Choctaw Indian. The, Indian reservation was once called Assometough's Laud. Assometough accepted the Christian name of Betty, and hence the place came to be known as Betty's Neck.

GrxnjenT. Playing on the Common. To the Editor of The Globe; Can you tell me through the "People's Column" whether the city authorities have a right to fence in and prohibit sports of any kind upon the western end of the Common? Is there any statute bv which this is authorized Are there any good reasons for driving the young men, who have played here summer evenings, to other and less elevating places of amusement, for instance, to the street corners to insult passers-by, or to the rum shops, to become drunkards and burdens for the city to carry? It seems to me that the best way to wean our young men from such places is to establish rival and at the same time more elevating amusements for thein. Compare the young man whose summer evenings have been spent in ball playing, stone throwing, wrestling and the other kindred games, to the one who has spent bis evenings at the pool table and tbe bar. I think there is no fair-minded man in the city who would not say "let them have the Common.
