A remarkabfe domestic episode was
Witnessed in City Hali square. An Italiau
jjprotnan clad in the bright hues affected
ffy her compatriots appeared dragging by
the hand a reluctant youngster of 5 or 6,
evidently her son. Wherever they were
bound it was contrary to the will and de
sires of the boy, who howled lustily and
finally planted his feet wide apart on the
sidewalk, refusing to budge.
Instead of spanking him or boxing his
ears, as an American parent of the same
class would have done, the woman sim
ply doubled up her fist and delivered a
series of scientific punches in the region
of the boy's belt. He instantly flashed
out a stiletto about four inches long and
made one swift lunge at his mother. She
deftly caught the blade with her bare
hand, stuck. it in'her bosom and, trans
ferring her grasp to the-boy's coat collar,
dragged him on to his unwilling destina

Cliildren's Logic.
We have come across the followinj
specimens of children's logic, in each cast
the child proving easily the victor: Ex
amination question What do you do
first when you parse a word? Answer
I rule a margin.
Again, a teacher has explained an ab
stract noun as the name of somehting
you can neither see, nor hear, nor touch,
and asks for an example. Answer, after
much mental hunting A little hen in an
egg.
On another occasion the teacher af
firms that a transitive verb must have an
object "thus, if you break, you must
break something" and cheerfully invites
the class tovput "break" into a sentence
Without an object. A small girl ventures
this, in perfect good faith: "I tried to
break the glass, but couldn't," adding
anxiously, "You see I didn't break the
glass."
To use Milton's expression, grammar
is clearly "not a bow for every man to
shoot in that counts himself a teacher."

The Courier of last wreek stated that
it had not heairdf a single Hiaywokxl
democrat who is opposed to the amend
ment. Perhaps the Courier is not
looking for opponents, for we know
theire iare a few. We acknowledge,
however, thait the Tank and file of the
democrats will support this or any
other measure advocated hy their par
ty, even though it mierht deprive them
of the right bf suffrage. There is hope
yet that when this vital question ds
thofrougMy discusised among our peo
ple, the more conservative element of
the democrats miay for once refuse to
support the bosses. At any rate, if
they would subsctribe for and read the
Gazette they would soon possets? more
knoedge on 'this and oher questions
than a present.
