THOSE NYERANTS STILL SOURCE
OF ACCIDENTS.

Accidents continue to be caused
by those hydrants on the Alakea
street sidewalk. People ciU walk
right up against them in the dark,
refusing to take warning by the mis-
fortunes of others who have gone be-
fore. 1t may be held 10y the Gov
ernment that persons who are so
stubborn rs TO persistcntly butt
against such obstacles, in spite of
repeated cautions, and in the alb
sence of any constitutional require
ment or statutory enactment COM
pelling them to do so, deserve to
suffer the consequences. This Is
not the view of those who have bark
ed their shins or received other in
iuries, or of the general public. They
hold the Government TO blame for
placing the hydrants in the way of
travel, and thus endangering the
limbs and necks of pedestrians. No
very serious damage has hitherto
resulted TO any one individual. The
loss of Il little skin, shock to the
nervous system, n narrow escape
from dislocated neck, and the eX-
pendture of a dollar or two for oint-
ment is about all that any one per
son has had to bear to date. But
the cases are so numerous, that II
the misfortunes OF all We're heaped
upon one, The burden would be too
great for the strongest man to ell
dure. The aggregate of suffering
and loss is enormous. The Govern
ment, which is supposed to exist for
the benefit of the people, should have
little consideration for the govern
ed, and do something to remedy al
evil of its own creation-elther re-
move the hydrants from the side
walk, or remove the sidewalk from
the hydrants.

come no doubt, that enlightened
man will look back with horror at
the wickedncss of governments in
one day, licensing for gain. the
prince Of evils, rum, so l cannot
consent that my government shall
license any evil much less the worst
of all cvils-rum.
This generation is enlightened
enough TO sec the sin the Church
committed in former days by the
sale of indulgenres, or to sec the
evil government would do, if it Ii
censed theft, robbery and murder;
yet licensing the sale of ram is all
of these evils ia nutshell, aud
much more as reliable statistics in
form US.
That three fourths of all crimes
brought before the Courts result
directly or indirectly from the use
of strong drink. l can't vote for
rum when it causes more misery
than all other evils combined, and
further reaching in its effects as il
DESTROYS both body and soul. We
are told that no drunkard can inherit
the kingdom of God, but u lepcr or

leprosy and rum, all quarantined,
prohibited, stamped out, and en-
tircly abolished, not licensed. Lii
cense means n continuance of the
business licensed with government
protection, and continuance means
continuance of three fourths of all
crimes now committed.
Archdeacon Farrar says that
"Cruikshank the artist offered $500
for proof of n violent crime COM
mitted by total abstainer from in
toxicants and that the money re.
mains unclaimed to-day"

considerable time, no doubt for th

ALL ABOUT RATS.

Eaaaev to One Another.
The black and brown rats are mar.
eicularly deserving of notice, and arc
the most widely distributed over the
world. It is not known whore or how
they were introduced into Europe first,
but it must have been in recent times,
a. the ancients did not know them.
They both appear to be natives Of tho
central part Of Asia The brown rat
found its way to Europe in the begin
ming Of the eighteenth century. and
reached Britain and the western coun-
tries Of Europe about the middle Of
that epoch. The Jacobites Of Britain
had the notion that they came with the
house OF Hanover. as they appeared
about that time, and. therefore. chose
tO call them the Hanoverian rat They
are sometimes enormously called tho
Norway rat
The brown rat is larger and more
powerful than the black rat. and they
are deadly foes. The brown rat has
succeeded in causing an almost total
disappearance Of the black rat in
places where it was very numerous.
According to Mr.. Rodewel's theory,
the manner in which the brown rat
has supplanted its black foe Is by love
instead OF war. The browns. being
the stronger, carry OF the females OF
the blacks by force. and thus he ac-
counts for the curious kind Of parti-
colored offspring which may be found
in France. These rats infest ships.
and 50 are carried to the most distant
parts Of the world. some OF them get
ting ashore at every port and estab-
fishing new colonies.
The black rat is nearly seven inches
long and the brown grows TO ten
inches. with q tail eight inches long.
Both species are extremely prolific,
producing from ten to fourteen Mt
birth. When they are pressed by
hunger they do not hesitate to devOur
the weaker of their kind.
The rats ncver-failing appetite il
useful in devOuring animal
ard vegetable substances, the putre-
faction Of which would otherwise be
productive of pestilence. It Is said
that the visits Of the plague to West
