In view of the diphthera and
other contagious diseases present in
this city and the general uncleanli-
ness of the city the city council will
pass an ordinance this week bearing
on the death-dealing manure-piles,
filth pools, and piles Of decaying veg
etable matter. Hereafter it will be
an offence for parties to leave any of
the above nuisance on their premises,
and for the same will be fined or
imprisoned. The ordinance will be
very severe on those who do not
clean up their premises, and just in
view of present surroundings. The
sanitary condition of the city is ter
rible, and the act of the council is
timely and just what is needed to
protect the health of all. To avoid
a fine, it would be advisable to be-
gin cleaning up at once, as the law
will be enforced without fear or
favor.

THE CoRs1CAN VENDETTA.

Z 01 No1<5ANAN fENDEI1As
The most crushing reproach that can be Of
fcsed to Corsican is to have failed in mis- obli-
gation- In the Middle Ages any oue who backed
out was fined, and, If he remained contumacious
for week, banfshed- In 1851 the person
guilty Of rin,6eccare had hts tongue slit. Some
times the quarrel extended to villages. From
1872 to 1913 the Roca-Seras and Ortois Of tho
Village Of Sartenc had their houses loopho1ed
like fortress, and at times their inhabitants
would have to stand a siege for months, when
the man who ventured to the window or opened
the door was likely 10 be spotted from the
premises opposite. Not long ago, priest,
o hs saoae sn wn h2
his armed sexton, was shot dead at mass
by his enemy, who was hidden in the cua-
fessional. The eminent Pauls studied DUR
ing the last century in darkcned room,
where the window-shuttera we're lined with
cork. He was beslcged 10 convent in 1756
By his enemies, and would have been killed
bad not the mother OF another foe
sent her son, Thomas Carnoui, to his rescue,
sacrificing her hatred to her patriotism In
170f, Andrea Romanetti shot dead, during the
di BoFgo The mother dressed herself in male
attire, and with posse OF friends hunted the
murderer so closely that he offered to surrender
il allowed to confess himself. She took him to
the priest, kIlclt and prayed With him during
his shritt, then tied him to tree aud drew up
her platoon, With their guns aimed at him, and,
suddenly Telecting, unbound and pationcd him.
The action lives in Corsican tradition, less be-
cause OF its generosity than for its singularity.
There are parofanti, sort OF peace-making
magistrates, whose province it is to arrange
such feuds, and the decisions, once pronounced,
are usually obcyed; but q meeting, for purposes
OF reconciliation BIS frequently Widens and in
teusities the quarrel. The number of men In

IT is now positively declared by the
Philadelphia newspapers that the
Permanent Exhibition" now occupy
ing the Centennial Main Building, has
resolved to give up the ghost. 1t has
been struggling along trying by vari-
Gus methods and make-shifts to estab-
lish itself on permanent" basis ever
since the great Exhibition of 1876
closed, but with very Indifferent sue
cess, and now, having received notice
"to quit" the Park, from the Commits
sioners of those celebrated public
grounds, or else to make the institu-
tion what was promised when the
grounds were leased to it, they, (the
Exhibition Company find no other
alternative but that of surrender. 1t
is pity that so fine structure, and
one of so much historic renown, should
be ruthlessly torn down and destroyed.
