Uniformed Collectors
Arecent and much commended de-
cision by a Massachusetts judge, brings
to grief one of the later products of
Yankee ingenuity. His honor decided
~ to hold .,for the- grand jury two men,

agents of a debt-Collecting firm, who'
had employed peculiar means of trying 5

to induce a citizen to pay a bill. At-
tired .in green coats and green caps
these men made. frequent calls at the
debtor’s residence, and occasionally
intercepted him in his walks and drives.
This was supplemented by regular pa-
rades of the pair up‘and down the side-
walk in front of their victim’s house.

“Conspiracy. to anuoy”’is the charge
on which thedefendants are held. The
question whether the alleged debt was
really due or was oil'set by claims on
the other side did not enter into the
court’s__= proceedings, and really had
nothing? to do 'with the case. The
ficient fact that the men were attire cal-
culated to attract an unusual amount of
attention, and that they called upon the
defendant persistently with the evident
purpose of shaming him by the atten-
tion aroused into a settlement of the
claim.

The court holds,
vzrious states have held, that creditors
must confine themsel-Ves to the ushal
processes of law in ,the collection of
bills,
course, pe1missible,l1_ut, that any extras
ordinary method such as the wearing
of uniforms and so forth, could not be
tolerated, and would lender those
adopting them liable to punishment.
Fifty years ago imprisonment for debt
and

as other courts in

ordinary solicitation being, of

was lawful in many of the states,
its abolition has always- been regarded
as a progressive step. But if debtors
could be houndedby. collectors dressed
in red. green, or yellow uniforms, their
condition would be- more distressful
than that Of the old-time debtors who
were shut up in jails.

The Grand Army at Louisvme.

 

 

It was a most noteworthy feature in
last week’s National Encampment of
the Grand Army of the Republic, (the
twenty -ninth in its history) that it was
held at Louisville, Kentucky. Years
1120 Baltimore was the placeIOf meeting,
and Maryland,
border state in the civil war; but Louis-
ville is the furthest reach southward
for the encampments of the Grand
Army.

Yet we have no doubt that the Union
veterans'would be 'welcomed even - at

tlanta; for there, at the Exposition,
- there is to be a “Gray and Blue” day

this month. It-is the happy experi-
ence of the American people, North
and South, that they can recall and
even publicly celebrate the battles in
which they'were arrayed against each
other without arousing bitterness.
More fortunate than the Germans and
the French, between whom'the' recent
commemorations have revived old ani-
mositics, they talk over Bull Run and
Shiloh, Vicksburg and Pete'i sburg,
without haie.’ No doubt many Of the
Grand Army men will go from Louis-
ville to Chickamauga, where they will
find Confederate and Union Survivors
of the battles fought there and at Chat-
tanooga, taking part in the dedication
of a national military park that is in-
tended for both North and South.’

Kentucky however, was really a good
recruiting ground for the Union’as well
as for the Confederate ranks. ' She fur-

nished more soldiers to the former, ac-
cording to the records, than Kansas or
Minnesota, and more thzimMaine, Conn-
ecticut, New Hampshire, or Vermont.
She is credited with 75,760 men, ’ which
follow s hard on Iowa’s 76,242 and New
Jersey’s 76,814. In last year’s record

\

of the Grand Army she showed 4,712
members, a number which exceeds that
of some States that have had National
Encmpments, and accordingly Ken-
was entitled to her turn.

 

like Kentucky, was 11'

Thus far we, find. that Indianapolis
has had the National Encampment
three times; Philadelphia, Washington
and Boston twice (ach; Cincinnati,
Cleveland, New Haven, Harrisburg,
Pittsburg,'Baltimore, Chicago, Colum-
bus, St. Louis, San Francisco. Spring-
field, Providence, Portland, Albany,
Dayton, Denver, Detroit. Milwaukee,
and Minneapolis, ionce e:1ch.v It is
rather odd that the veterans have never
yet encamped in the city of New York;
but there are advantages, perhaps, in
not selecting a town that is so big and
so busy. *

The Grand Army was never more
warmly welcomed than at Louisville,
and however many Colonels it carried
there, the local supply could match
them.

The Oyster.

Says a lover of oysters: “An oyster,
sir, is one of the elements of social ex-
istence, a delicacy of no age, sex or
condition, but patent of the universal
family of man. Good in a scallop, bet-
terin astew, best of all in the ‘shell;
good at luncheon, before dinner, at
supper; good to entertain a friend, good
to cat by yourself; good when you are
hungry; good, moreover, when you are
not.”

scene in the fourth act surpassed in
realism the climatic spectacle of The
Prodigal Daughter.’ The grand stand,
crowded with plungers, sports and
shrieking spectators, and the Gravesend
