To Protect Little Children.

During the year just closed numerous cases
of cruelty to children by inhuman parents and
guardians have been reported by the police
aud press of this city. The matter has long
been an important theme of discussion among
prominent ladies and gentlemen who have
from time to time considered the advisability
of organizing humane society for the prevcn-
ton of cruelty to children. In furtherance
of that object several gentlemen met yester-
day afternoon in the Office of Mr.. L. r. Francis.
The subject was discussed, and it was finally
determined to postpone action and call a
mass meeting at an early date. The meeting
will be announced in the columns of THE RE-
PUBLICAN.
Among the many cases of cruelty to chill
dren reported during the year 1888 were the
following: father compelled his son, aged
10 years, to go without food for forty eight
hours; brutal whippings with clubs and
horsewhips in several cases; very small
girl tied to bedpost and dashed with rope,
and others of an equally horrible nature.

short while after sunset last evening a
beautiful pic.ure appeared in the western
sky. The masses of cirrus clouds which had
remained banked against the horizon were
suddenly agitated in Il mysterious manner
and began to assume fantastic shapes, colored
by the dying crimson of sunset. A few min
utes later they cOnverged toward the zenith
in bright silver streaks and surrounding the
quarter moon formed "a perfect fan. The
moon, being exactly in the center, formed n
brilliant centerpiece, and reflected werdly
against its surroundings of silver cirrus The
picture lasted about fifteen minutes, then a
piercing north wind began to blow, and in a
moment the clouds melted away and myriads
of stars shone from perfectly clear sky.

latter were built outside of the fire limits
Fifty.four structures were condemned as
dangerous to life and limb. The excess of
