Mr. Justice Brewer, of the Bupreme Court of the United Btates, delivered a Noteworthy speech yesterday at the meeting In Detroit of the American I Association. He told the assembled lawyers what The Evening World” has been insisting upon for the past four Months, that the delays now incident to Htigation have become a scandal While Juatice Brewer devoted most at- tention to the necessity for shorter trials and fewer appeals in civil cas he also made a radical recommendation as to the treatment of convicted crim- i He saja: In criminal cases there should be no appeal, 1 ay it with reluctance, but ‘the truth is that you can trust a jury to do justice to the accused with more safety than you can an appellate court to secure protection to the public by the speedy punishment of a criminal.” ‘This may, perhaps, be going too far. If Justice Brewer and all other men of influence will try to have trials follow on the heels of indictments they will be doing the community most goud. If they will provide the machinery for Prompt bringing up of the District-At- torney who protects crime by long de- laying and at last refusing to bring criminals to trial they will have done most to improve the country, While it is true that the scandal of appealing and re-appealing tn behalf of criminals has grown in the past few Years, it is @ still worse scandal the number of crimes that have been com- mitted for which no attempt has ever been made to punish the guilty, People so soon forget. ‘The Orchard Street disaster has gone by and no one was punished, When will the six men accused of the deaths of fifteen of their brothers in West Broadway be brought to trial?

Yes, sir. And Sir Gus was the head man and bottle-washer of “The Sporting Duchess," which was produced at the Academy of Music last night by our own American, Bir Gus—in other words, by Sir Charles—that {8 to say, Mr, Charles Frohman, Sir Gus's assistants in the manufacture of the “Sporting Duchess" character were Cecil Rale!gh and Henry Hamilton, They hacked up the bits that went to make it up, and Sir Gus seasoned them to taste and served up hot with melted butter—or Melted audience, last night, at any rate. “The Sporting Duchess" absolutely defies criticlam, for its materials have been written about for decades, It doean't contain one gleam of anything that 4s new, for it is composed princi- pally of the best bits of other melo- dramas. Everything {8 there—mort- wages, encumbered estates, the wronged lady who can no longer conceal her condition the sorrowing popper, who clinches his fist and sets his lip as he talks of poor Mary; the devilish adven- turess with the devilish cigarette; the earl, the trained race- (oh! hang the cable and trolley that have let them loose; if we must have them Jet it be in sausagen), and last, but not least, the villain who oem about ruining pretty ladies just because tradition says that he has got to do #0. ‘The only interesting character in the play is that of Maria, Duchess of Mil- ford, a sporting Duchess, who buys the Derby winner for (26,000 (a mere trifle to Sir Gus ‘Arris and Sir Charles Froh- man), and thus saves Douglas, Earl of Desborough, from the evil machinations of Major Mortyn, who has ruined poor Mary and made violent and really im- proper love to Murlel, Countess of Des- borough—and, of course, has fastened all the guilt upon the hero, ‘The Sport- ing Duchess” {s amusing, and neatly ar- ranged, but Sir Gus ix afrald to let her stand out to prominently, It would be too daringly original, The Tritish pub- Me, wir—Arry and ‘Arriet, str—must be humored. They expect certain things done in a certain way, and get ‘em they must. Whether this condition holds true of the American public I can't say for sure, but I've no doubt that It does. Sir Charles knows more about it than yours obediently, and he has invested a good deal of cash in this production, “The Sporting Duchess,” from a plc- torial point of view, will xently titillate your eye.

Agnes Booth, looking not a day more than one-and-thirty, was capital s her sportive ladyship, although her volce was scarcely what you would ex- pect from @ duchess, even of @ sporty nature, But Mra, Booth is an artist, and even the cavernous stage of the Academy, that almost swallowed up good old Btoddart, did not cause her much trouble after the first act. Mr Booth {s really awfully nice, E. J. Rateliffe has lost all his good looks and haw grown portly, He was a very usual hero, but perhaps the part was to blame for that, Miss Alice Fischer played the adventures with the reck- leas abandon of a bottle of ginger beer in skittish effervescence, She was ex- ceodingly devil-may-care, but her wie didn't ft her for all that. In the midst of her well-conaidered and forceful tirade I couldn't help saying to myself: "Yes, dear. Quite so. But your wig doesn't fit." Francis Carlyle was very good when he was intelligible. That happened once or twice, and Cora Tan- her, as the brilliant fool of a heroine, wore gorgeous drespes in the mi her terriflc anguish and kissed my with splendid stage effect. In fact, the dressmaker can give Sir Gus points on originality, The sleeves worn by Miss Tanner and Miss Fischer were marvels of exceedingly hideous originality.

The best way now is to put two tablespoon- fuls of kerosene into the water used in wiping the oficloth: If the varnish is worn off and the oflcloth much soiled {t must be very thoroughly scrubbed with sand soap and water, and then rinsed off in clear water in which a lit- tle ammonia has been dissolved, about two tablespoonfuls to a pall of water, When this {a done the oflcloth must be left to dry thoroughly; and then it should be revarnished with the best quality of ofleloth varnish, which comes for the purpos A Colored Sisterhood, It may net be generally known that the members of the congregation of the Sisters of the Holy Family in New Orleans are colored women.

She heard the other day that the Council was going to pass an ordinance Prohibiting women from engaging in the occupation of barbering; so when the barbers held a mass-meeting she Presented herself in behalf of the hun« dred or more women who are to be found in Chicago shops. She repre« sented that women are forging to the front in the business. “There is a reas son for this," she said. “Women bare bers do not drink nor carouse, conse« quently there nerves are always steady and thelr touch is light. They do not chew tobacco nor smoke cigars, and ale ways treat their customers with the ute” most politeness."* A Peculiar Industry, Every day in London there are hune dreds of bables lent out by greedy moth. ers or care-takers to beggars, who find them worth their weight in gold in gulling the charitable passer-by. In the Streets of Whitechapel bables may be hired by beggars at the rate of 30 cents @ day, and a city missionary says there are several people who make quite a decent living out of this disgraceful traMfic. One woman in particular, who keeps a day nursery, at which the children of factory hands and women working in warehouses may be kept, charges five cents a day for taking care of each baby and then, probably, lets out the Infant to a street beggar. Women in search of titles might do well to go to Poland. It is said that in Warsaw alone, with a population of 600,000, there are 90,726 persons belonging to the héreditary nobility and 9,287 “pere sonal nobles,” people entitled to the distinction by reason of office or dine covery. There are said to be as many rinces in Poland aa in Russia. In the latter country they are found plying every trade. According to the last cen- sus, there are now living nearly 1,000 Princes and Princesses Galitain, There~ are hardly sufficient names in Russia to distinguish them and great confusion results, Orlental Furnishing: Oriental furnishings are in special fa- vor just at present, and go far towards making the corner or bow window of the room devoted to the tea table one of especial attractiveness.
