There Isa porten tious apprehension in these visits of the monarebs of Europe which bodes not well for peace. Elsie Van Horne of New York, wlfo ia described as being little more than a child, has had a swift and exciting ro mance It happened thus: Thurs day, there was an elopement Friday, a marriage; Sunday, a separation Thursday again, an arrest of the young groom Friday again, a sentence; Saturday au imprisonment. Her husband Aroheim was a thief. He married (he girl thinking she was rich; she eloped with him believing his father was wealthy. NoRom will weep when Présidant Har rison leaves Washington. He has been a good man he has not had but one house hold scandai —the Cape May cottage—but he has been so inordinately selfish and small and sly that he has no friends, no admirers, no boomers. Hs has treated Dudley, Tanner and Quay with sapercll ious scorn. They were good enough to obtain the office which he was not too pure to acoept at their hands. He was complaisant enough to bargain with Quay for the position which Wauamaker holds, but not complaisant enough or honest enough to allow the principal to fulfill his own term. It seems to us that if Quay was good enough to treat with for Wanumaker be is good enough now to conduct another campaign, by which be may become a treaty power. The records of the caasus offija at Washington reveal sim» remarkable woik performed ly Port r's political missionaries. The returns of the Willoughby family of Montgomery county, Ky is an instance. The age of the father of the (amily, Henry, is 85, and that of the wife 32. They have had thirteen children the eldest, a boy, is 21, and the next child a girl of 17. This would make the father but 14 aud the mother but 11 when the first child was born, and necessitate the birth of a child every eighteen months subsequently. The census reports show many colored parents of ages ranging from 12 to 14 years; but there are few whit« mothers recorded less than 15 years of age. The expie its of Porter's men in New York and in Philadelphia hare beeu the subjects of much newspaper coutrove ey. Those persons whose minds are not tin plated are satisfied that the enumeration and the statLtxs are worthless, but no body had any thought that the reports eoutalned such romances as that of the Willoughby family. The fervid Amelie Rives Chauler is about to break loose on the country again She has been itndying Europe in the Latin quarter—among the frolicsome grlsettes aud the spendthrift Bohemians —of Paris. When a reporter asked her what her impressions were she rolled her louging eyes in a far-off lock of vacuous expectancy, touched her blonde heir, which was beautifully arranged In the Greek fashion, with a knot at the back of her he*d end a narrow band of tur quoise blue velvet, and said: The strongest impressiou it has made upon me is the fact of the rapid growth which the change from the New World to the Old causes In reoeptive natures. It Is like putting a field flower into a hot house—the resnit being fiuer texture and a double fringe of petals. "impraasloas" which Amelie intends Iu a word,the general development of the best poluts. and, on the othor hand, the subduing of certain weedy tendencies. As for myself, I am longing to get back to the q. let and gentle loveliness of my own home, that may digest in mental peace the powerful impressions I have absorbed during the last twenty-nine month*. To be diffuse and change the simile, I feel as though had gathered together over here a great mass of as yet unclassified treasures, and I am impatient to name aud put it order during the long winter months which I look forward with so much happiness. If any student of erotic literature infer what we shall have next from classify in the "gentle loveliness" of her own home amid a "mental peace" not dis turbed by any impulses of morality, modesty or artistic refinements, and thrust upon the world in a decollete con ditlon it is more than we have or can imagine. In fact we are afraid to try picture the possibilities. Henry Plummer Cheatham, the colored Congressman of North Carolina, has been to Cape May. He had an in terview with the President about the ap pointaient of E. E. Smith of North Carolina to be minister to Liberia. He also suggested to the President that the colored people would like to see a repre sentative colored man appointed to one the new Circuit Court judgeship». The President listened attentively to what the colored Congressman had to say aud then promised to give the mattor due consideration. Prebident Harrison a truthfnl man, and in his small, harsh and narrow way, a good man, But still the country has become sensibly impressed with the fact that he is an astute politician and withal a sly man. He has made good appointments to all judicisl posiioni. That is the one, single, solitary and lugu briously lonesome credit that must be given to his administration. He has shown a determination to appoint not only able lawyers but good men positions on the bench. We do not be lieve he will change bis views or his prac tice In tln.t respect. How then can he put Congressman Cheatham off with the declaration that he will take his sugges tions under advisement? Is that truth fni, Is It honest In view of the Presi dent's sentiments in regard to the white man's party in the South, and to his practise iu filling the judgeships The explanation of r esident Weihe coucer..ing the assistance whlsh the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers gave the tin plate boomers in the Congvessional Committee are pre mature r.nd embarrassing. He says that representations were made to his associa tion that its members would derive greet benefit from the increase of the tariff on tin. Finally after much discussiou an agreement was made by which the wages of certain classes of iron and steel workers should have an advance of 15 and 20 per cent, in the existing scale of wages. The association then sent representatives to the McKinley bill oommltiee in Washington, and procured the advance of the duty on tin. President Weihe says that the bursling-with-patrlotic-en thusiaaui champion of tin plate advance then, Niedrlnghaus, Is the first one now to break the agreement. He wishes now to import skilled" Welshmen to take the place of his striking employes. He re fused to sign the scale of wages agreed upon by the association His tin plate shed is idle; the man dipper refuses to dip and the boy is idle. President Weihe has forgotten perhaps that Niedrlnghaus invested heavily in tin on speculation and iu the hope that the price would ad vanue, aud that having already realized profit of $50,000 on his investment, he not in any hurry to start either m\U or his tin plate shed. With $60,000 profit for his vote aud labor to put the Mc Kinley bill through Congress in hiB pocket, bo can sfford to wait as long as the workingmen. The tin plate boom is in dunger of col lapse. Tlie man who was dipping im ported plates iu Imported tin to supply banquet dishes for high tariff dinners and lamps for McKinley's carriage, says he will not dip any more plates till Niedrlnghaus agrees to the sealeof wages adopted by the Amalgamated Association of Iron aud Steel Workers. The men belong!ug to that association are on a strike in Niedriughaua'B rolling mill be cause that patriot will not pay the wages of the Beale as fixed. So the work3 in the shed at St. Louis, those great works that Niedrlnghaus ha« been bragging about, have beeu stopped because he will not sign the amalgamated scale. We have always heard that Nled rlnizbaus was anxious to pay high wages. We understood that the tin plate boom of bounteous industry was started for the express purpose of paying higher wages But some facts are coming out which are slightly inconvenient to the tin-plate boomer. Niedrlnghaus wanted to Import some "skilled" laborers to replace his striking employes at lower wages than the strikers de mand. He got an opinion from Mr. Owen on the immigration of contract labor which suited him, but which would have played hobs in the Ohio campaign if Secretary Foster had not suppressed it by declining to set aside the contract laboi law to enable Niedrlnghaus to re place striking employes with foreign cheap labor. What a sham and humbug this whole business of pro'ectlonism is! Among other embarrassments of this administration there is nothing more embarrassing than the condition of the Treasury. The monthly reports have beeu Fostered, so as to create the im pression that there is a surplus of more than $54,000,000, but that surplus is not tsng'ble enough to pay the 4J per cent, bonds which have matured. Meantime only $11,600,000 of the 41 per cent, bonds have been taken at 2 per cent. there the Treasury is. It is a very queer situation for the Treasury of the United States. We are confident Mr. Foster never acquired his millions iu dry goods, aud his title of "Calico Charley" by con ducting his private business in that manner. We feel assured that a prudent merchant would have paid his matuied liabilities with his balance in bank, and not issued new notes to take up the old ones when he had an idle baianc**, a "sur plus" in bank.for that purpose.If thisbal ance had dw indled so that it could be some doubt as to which side of the led Considering this and considering that Secretary Foster is a merchant and banker too, it is difficult to escape conclusion that the Foster "surplus" f Ai a ».a r me tlMlßlble u Ut y s $100,000,000 left .by an honest, careful, economic Democratic administration. pressed in less than four figures, with ger that was on, he would likely renew, but net when he had enough and more than enough balance to pay his notes and leave a handsome balance besides. there any reason for wondering why buslnoss is dull and times are hard. Wk have frequently directed attention to the unfair and unreliable personal edi torial criticisms and reportorial misrepre sentations with which the Every Evening filled. Like a man who professes to be good, wise and pure the Every Evening invites criticism by professing to be inde pendent and impaztial in politics and fair and truthful In its reports of local news. Like the Pharisee it errs in the spirit of the very laws It professes to practice. This is notably the case iu its editorial attacks dnring the last few months on several piivate persons. It made an un provoked attack on Lewis C. Vandegrift. accusing him of writing articles, aud when it was advised that Mr. Vandegrift was sick and unable to write aud when another person acknowledged that he wrote the articles, the Every Evening let Its charge stand. Juso now It is apologizing for an equally unfair attack on Postmaster Stewart. It should not be necessary for a well con ducted newspaper to apdogize Its editors and reporters should have facts. Our local columns contain the complaints of Constable Brown that the biased and untruthful reporter of the Every Even ing bas treated him unfairly. He says the Evening Journal stated both sides, but the Every Evening seemed anxious to make him, a pnblic officer doing his duty in a case where a man resisted and threatened him with a hatchet, guilty of a man's death. Mr. Browu states his own case; the public can judge if the newspaper which makes such brave professions is capable of do ing any better justice to him than to Postmaster Stewart, to Mr. Vandegrift, to hundreds of other men against whom its several editors or its moie révérai re porters have some private spite. THE ANDERSON-BAKER DUEL That duel between Anderson and Baker near New York is an awful object lesson of the criminal foolishness of men and women. There was a stupid family quarrel among the women of two families living in the same house. The men came into it to make it serious, then dangerous, perhaps fatal. Anderson aud Baker were both armed A man puts a pistol In his pocket with latent to kill. This quarrel was in pro gress for weeks, and yet both the Baker and Anderson families knew that the principals were prepared to do murder. They anticipated murder. Yet neither family moved away from the other: neither principal avoided the other. Both me» held their ground and prepared pistols to kill each other because; a little child plucked some fruit in an orchard where there was an aben dance to give away. When Baker determined that he coaid not live peaceably in Anderson's home, why did he not leave? Why did he pro cure arms and practice with a pistol? Why should he pretend to wish to kill Anderson? When Anderson found that his tenant was not an agreeable neighbor whv did he not evict him? Why should he kill him? These are questions which occur to .every one who reads the accounts of the tragedy between a Soul horn family and a Northern family, because one was "a rebel" aud the other "stood by his flag Neither man, one aged 30. the other over 50 year», seems to have acted with com monsense and both seem to have been incensed by the women, especially by Mrs Baker, who interfered when they were apparently about to agree upon a basis of peaceable settlement. One man lies wounded aud will proba bly die; the other man is to be tiled for murder, both victims of a domestic quarrel among fooliBh women. But the meu were equally foolish aud far more criminal. It is not any more discreditable to avoid a mad mau than a mad dog; it is not any more discreditable to force an ob noxious tenant to vacate than to ask a neighbor to suppress a howling dog or move an offensive pig sty. Yet these two men armed themselves, while still living iu the same house, end prepared to kill each other. NEWSPAPER OPINION. Good-By Harrison. New York bu». The resolutions passed by the Execu tive Committee of the Republican National Committee in honor of Mr. Quay have their serions as well as their humorous side. Mr. Quay is scarcely the great and good man described in the resolutions, bnt he wsa great and good enough to elect the Hon. Benjamin HarrlsoD, President. Mr. Harrison seems to be somewhat ashamed of the fact, and has been far from mani festing a proper spirit of giatitude, Yet in case he should be renominated, he will bo very fortnnate if there is anybody who will manage his canvass with such dexterity as was displayed by Hon. Mat thew Stanley Quay. In view, however, of Harrison's lukewarmness toward the man who palled him through, what in ducement can the members of the Re publican National Committee have work for Harrison In another campaign? What inducement have the managing politicians of the Republican party desire of the success of a candidate who forgets the man that made him. Grati tude may or may not be a common virtue in politics, but the display is a sembance of it is sometimes useful. A ciudldate for renomlnatlon cannot afford to "be known to be forgetful of those who bave done him"favors. Weather.

Jaatice Pursues a Bat. It Is not every day in the week that justice, attired in a night shirt, pursues a bat to death with a crash towel as a weapon. The wife of one of the city's magistrates has been snmmerfDg on a farm near this city. She was very much annoyed by a bat which persisted in making night hideous by flying around in her room. Everything was done to keep the bat in subjection, but it was of no avail. As a last resort the magistrate went to the farm and repairing to the room together they retired. In the "wee sma' hours" of the night the magistrate was awakened by feeling hiB wife grasp Lis arm and say, "Oh, dear, the bat is in the room. That was all the hint necessary. Arming himself with a heavy crash towel, justice clothed in a night shirt instituted a still hunt for his royal bat ship. The bat evidently devined the inten tions of the magistrate and selected its own battle-ground. It flew iuto an ad joining room. The magistrate followed. He told bis better half to bring him a lamp. This she did, though with fear aud trembling. He took the lamp, walked boldly into the room and the battle to the death began. The crash towel went whizzing through the air in all directions, but the right one. At length a chance blow struck the winged monster with a dull, sickening thud, the bat fell to the floor. It turned its eyeB upward in a mute appeal for mercy. Seeing none, it gave a convul sive shudder, aud the soul left the body. Tenderly the magistrate placed the corpse on the window sill and left the chamber of death. Next morning the family was called to view tliB corpse for the purpose of identifying it. When the doer of the chamber was opened the bat was not to be Been. The family cat was sitting on the window sill licking his obops. The DmidI Mlaorlty.

A ROOFER'S NARROW ESCAPE. How is this Î' 'Well, He Palls Twenty six Knet, Rat Escapee Serious Injury—A New Tug Boat. Special Correspondence Evening Journal. New Castle, Aug. 4.—Two slate roofers from Wilmington were painfully injured yesterday afternoon, by a fall from the roof of William B. Deakyne's new residence on Water street.
