A BRIDE WELL POSTEO.
J hold it to be a truth con-
stantly self evident, says Ciar
Belle in tbe Cincinnati En-
quirer, that every man will
defend a woman against all
men except himself. If you
haven't noticed it already, you
haye ouly to look for it an
houj* or so in any place of
mixture of the sexes, Clap
your eyes on a pretty woman
without mail escort, and two
ph°nomena will become ob-
vious. Firstly, there will be a
large amount of open and
covert staring at her, to
all of which her obviousness
is of course only assumed
Secondly, if one of the starers
happens to realize that others
are at tbe same game he will
manifest plainly his disgust at
such treatment of an unpro-
tected beauty ,jutterly ignoring
his own offense. A husband
and wife got into a street car.
The man was somewhat dudish
in dress. The woman was un-
der twenty, and as pretty as
nature and art are in the habit
of combining to produce. They
were chatting on the very sub-
ject that I have here intro-
duced.
"Percival, dear," said she,
ftl will prove to you that I
am right, and take only ^ten
minutes to do jt, if you'll pro-
mise not to get angry about
it." ,
Ife closed the contract.
Then she drew herself up, as
though the husband sitting ber
side her was an entire stran-
ger, and waited for the car to
fill with passengers at Union
Square.
^•Now " she whispered be-
hind her fan, ^'observe how I
am ogled when alone."
Within five minutes he saw
that half a dozen masculine
passengers, frotu hoary age to
callow youth, ^eyed his bride
with more or less audacity,
and several manifestly would
not have needed the smallest
beginning of a wink on her
part to seize upon her then
and there. That part of the
exhibition was a tri nmph for
the wife, but the most curi-
ous feature of her experiment
pemaine4 to be tried.
"You certainly do seem to
attract a great deal of admira*
tion," said the husband, sup*
posing that the pretended
strangeness was at an end.
She lifted her eyebrpwp in
simulated surprise, as though
an imperteut fellow had pn-
warrantedly accosted her, and
pointedly turned her face from
)}im. He understood her now,
and did not speak to her fur-
ther. Next, she drew her shoul-
der ajyay from contact with
his. By this time the spectators
lyere believing that he was
annoying her dreadfülly, and
scornful glances were aimed
at himr Her final trick wps
conclusive. It consisted ju gud
denly pulling bejr skirtp clp«r
of bis trousers, an4 delibepatp
ly setting hpr feet as far jp
the other direction as tbe end
pf the car would permit. Np
body doubted that the dear,
demure creature had been
grossly insulted. A man arose
from the opposite side.
"Will you exchange seats
with me?" he very gallantly
politely said, lifting bis hat
most deferentially.
Now, be had been foremost
among the original oglers—
the veriest simpleton of them
all.
'Tbank you, sir." she replied,
as bland as a white heifer,
¿'but I prefer to sit beside my
husband."
Thus, with the same stone
she killed that vulture bird
and the dove-mate whom she
had undertaken to instruct as
to tbe philosophy of male gal
lantry.

AN EDITOR SHOT.
San Francisco, Nov. 19—
M. H. DeYoung proprietor of
the Chronicle, was shot at
5:30 this evening by Adolph
Spreckels, son of Claus
Spreckels, the Hawaiian
sugar speculator. The shoot-
ing took place in the business
office of the Chronicle.
Spreckels fired twice, tbe first
shot taking effect in the left
arm, a little above the elbow,
tbe second in the left shoulder.
The shooting was the out-
come of an article published
in the Chronicle last Sunday
mornirig respecting the affairs
of tl>e Hawaiian Commercial
Sugar company. Spreckels
was arrested and taken to the
station house.
De Young's friends express
great[anxiety over his case.
Although the doctors refuse
to make any absolute Htate-
ment as to his condition, it is
well known at present they
entertain grave fears that,
should inflammation set in
the subclavian artery will lie
affected, and should the artery
burst, nothing conld save his
life Spreckels has been placed
under surveillance, and there
is no possibility of his eseap
ing from the city, even should
be desire to do so.

AN INTERVIEW WITH
CLEVELAND.
Albany, Nov. 20-Governor
Cleveland was asked by an
Associated Press reporter to
day, if he was aware of the
delusion among the cplojred
people of the south that a
change in the administration
would unfavorably affect the.ir
condition.
Gov. Cleveland replied:
'Yes, Í have been astonished
at the statement that there
Was an apprehension existing
among the colored people that
in some way their rights, now
secured to them under the
laws and constitution of the
United States, were in danger
from the election of a demo-
cratic president. I am even
told that some of them arc led
to suppose the result of the
recent election means that
they may be again made slaves
All this has appeared to me
to be so absurd and I have
been so sure that the slightest
intelligent reflection would
di«lo4ge such foolish fears that
1 can hardly deem any notice
pf them necessary,"
