Two young men who have longiheldia grudge against one another, met .after the entertain men' in front of the,hall and began pounding each other with steel knuc- kled until;their faces were horribly mu. tilated and .the clothes of one of them was completely saturated with blood. It is hard to say what might have been the consequence if they had not been separated. Such disgraceful conduct should not' be tolerated in any civil- ized community. These young men (and a number of others in the same locality) should know that it is against the law to carry steel knuckles and that they have left •themselves open to a heavy fine by doing so. a very large range to choose from.

SOCIAL STRUGGLERS. -One Of the most interesting phases of American life is found in the struggles for social supremacy which are constantly taking placeip theever changing conditions of society in the larger cities.. Hjdlivar Hjorth Boyesen, who spends his win- ters on Murray Hill and his summers in one of the most fashionable of the Long Island watering places, has writ- ten a story for THE COSMOPOLITAN dealing with those phases of American life which is likely to be received with the widest interest. The powerful strokes of thesturdynouveau rrchehave nowhere been so truly and so wittly presented as in the case of the l3ulke- leys, whose fortunes are begun in the September' COSMOPOLITAN. Side by side with the fortunes of those, who have so much money that the most serious concern of life becomes the question of how to spend,is a discussion of the fortunes of those with whom the question is how to provide the necessaries of life. This is done byMr Walker, editor of THE COSMOPOLITAN, who chooses to view the Homestead difficulties as an object, lesson in the Evolution of a Republican form of gov- ernment. He considers dispassionated- ly all the dangers to the state arising from the extensive colonies-of.workmen. brought together under our present sys- tem of concentration and the growing imperfection in our sys- tem of distribution and does not hesitate to, say that reform should come from the hands of those who fix the laws regulating distribution. The story of the Chicago Convention bears re -telling by the veteran Murat Halstead. The first of a series of three articles on Education in the South is from the pen of the President of the University of Tennessee. A delightful articles on the Island of Jersey and Jer- sey Cows. An article on the Cotton Districts. of the South and Miss Ester Singleton's chronicle of cer- tain celebrated but uncanny British spectre embrace some of the more en- tertaining features of the September COSMOPOLITAN. coborne. Some people are trying to find fault with the stewardship of Reeve Beck because the County Treasurer's salary was increased. But our worthy Reeve is not the responsible party. He was Warden at the time and the County Council is responsible, not the Warden. 1t would be abut as reasonable to charge a judge with giving a yerdiot without reviewing the evidence, as to held our Reeve responsible in thio case. Beck is the man for Colborne and people should not give currency to matters that he is in no way responsible for. The Hon. J. C. Patterson, M. P. for West Huron, will make a painstaking and efficient Minister of Militia. TO CORRESPONDENTS. Far next week we must ask all our cor- respondents to let us have their budgets one day earlier.
