How 20 Get a silver Cradle.

Talking Of customs reminds me OF a

Office. The old custom is still kept up
In the town Of Worcester, England,
where the mayors wife, having had a
child born unto her, was a few weeks
ago presented by the corporation with
the traditional silver cradle, 1t was in the
form Of o dish for fruit o. flowers. On
each side were u glass dishes, between
which the cradle, which was Of wicker

Four Kind. of Partisan Restaurants.

The Partisan restaurants may be divi.
ded into four classes. First come the
"Cremeries," a kind of dairy eating
house, and chiefly supported by the lower
classes; the Establishments Duval, y the
restaurants "a ixe prix" and the restau.
rants "a Ia carte" To the last class be-
long, of course, the fashionable and ex-
pensive cafes of the great houlevards,
such as the Anglais, the Maison Doree
and the Cafe Bignon. The last mem
toned, by the way, is in the Champs
Elysees, and its scale of prices is outrage
Gus, probably due to the fact that It's pa
trunage is almost entirely English and
American. A little further down in the
scale come a multitude Of restaurants "a Ia
carte, - all good and comparatively rea-
sonable. The great trouble is that one
dining alone must either be prepared to
content himself with a very simple din
ner, as far as variety is concerned, or else
be obliged 10 order twice as much as be
can eat at a proportionate addition TO his
bill. One portion for two people is the
almost invariable order in u Partisan res

he will find that the saving, as compared
with Delmonico's in New York, is little
or nothing. except, perhaps, in the single
item Of wine.
The dinners "a iixe prix" vary, of
course, in quality and variety, according
to the price. The table d'hOte at six or
eight francs is far superior to anything
outside If France. and from that one
may dine rs low down as a franc and a
quarter. But the cheap French table
d'hote is the worst atrocity that a reckless
man can inliict on his long suffering self.
The service is always poor, the room al
ways crowded, the table, linen and glass
ware always dirty, and the cooking, with
but few exceptions, always bad. The
only thing that is almost invariably good
is the bread. but then the restaurants

The Cattle on a Thousand Hills are His.

From far away Massachusetts
comes the following spirited pro-
test against the inhumanities Of the
"Cattle Kings" of the west. 1t is
from Our Dumb Animals" o pub
LEGATION devoted to the interests Of
the Society for the Prevention of
cruelty to animals. How true it is
we all know too we'll:
A Wyoming correspondent of the
Chicago Times writes that in the
winter of 1885 and 1887 half mill
lion cattle were permitted to die on
the plains of starvation.
SIN every little gulch might be
seen cattle staggering from weak
ness as they vainly tried to nibble
the short grass to prolong their tor
tured existence a few hours longer"
HI s s''s sss states that last winter
one nrul lost over eighteen thous-
and, the greatest loss being cows
that had been or were sucking
calves.
If the cattle on a thousand hills
are Gods, and He cares for His
dumb creatures, there will be
fearful reckoning for these Cattle
Kings" one of these days, and we
hope that not only the religious
press of the country, but all the
nearly five thousand editors to
whom we send this paper, will
have something to say on this SUBJ
jcct until this "cattle king" BUSH
ness shall be ended, and each
farmer in the West getting rid of
the monopoly of these great capital
lists, shall raise such number of cat
tie as he can properly care for.

lie about their herds or is it be-
cause Alturas county-the cattle
mans Canada of REFUGEES ready
with blinded eyes to accept one
head out of ten for taxation?
Do not seven months range in
Ada county entitle her to the taxes
on the animals that crowd our win
ter range?
A gentleman just in from the
roundup informs us that at least
three-fourths Of the cattle which
have been started to Camas prairie
this spring have been in Ada
county for the last seven months,
crowding the winter range to the
detriment of those of stockmen who
pay their taxes in this county.
When it is remembered that the
rate of taxation in. Alturas county
is never less than $500 per 800,
and that the cattle rate is always
higher than in Ada county, is it
not a little strange that owners of
Ada county stock should willingly
pay taxes in Alturas county?
AS lawful assessment at "full
cash value" seems to be the order Of
the day concerning merchandise,
notes, accounts, real estate, etc,
THE TRIBUNE would like to see the
list extended to include range stock,
and ventures the assertion that the
increase" will be surprisingly
large for such dry" year.
