 Killing Sorrel.
 Clean cultivation is the most effective way to rid 8 field of sorrel. Plowin g shallow during the heat of summer and throwing the roots of the sorrel to the surface to dry up has been recommended. A thick seeding of buckwheat has the effect of smothering 1t, and sowing lime has been found useful in some cases. There are soils where its growth is so natural that 1t is difficult to eradicate it entirely, but it can be kept under in some of the ways indicated, so as not to be parti ;ularly troublesome.
 The Raccoon Embraced the Dog.
 That the raccoon is the smallest rep resentative of the bear family is @ fact very well known to naturalists and generally set forth in dictionaries, but the average hunter refuses to recognize the relationship! Silas Barnes, of New burg, who for twenty years has earned bis living by selling small furs and rat tlesnake oil, after half lifetime of doubt, was finally convinced at dawn the other day that the familiar 'coon is a true ursa minor, and his eighteen pound bull terrier learned the lesson at the same time, but too late to profit by 1t.
 The hunter and his dog had passed the night in the woods at the foot of Storm King mountain, on the Cornwall side, and at daybreak Barnes ''treed" a coon in a tall pine. He never carries gun, because he says it frightens the game he wants to catch-and besides, he hasn't one. He climbed the tree and drove the coon down, noticing aa it passed him that it seemed to be con- siderably more. bulky than his dog. Then he sat upon a bough about thirty feet above the ground to watch the sport.
 He saw the terrier seize the coon by the throat. The shaggy animal made a desperate effort to release itself. Failing in this it stood upon its hind feet, and throwing it's strong fore legs around its enemy's body it gave him a deadly hug. The dogs eyes bulged, and so did those of the hunter, for never before, through 0 long experience as woodsman, had he seen anything like this. He went so rapidly to the rescue that he fell the last ten feet but he was too late. The coon was gone. and the terrier was gasping his life away. The blood that welled from some ruptured organ filled his mouth, his back was badly lacerated, and in a few minutes he was dead
 The squeeze of the little bear had been more than even his seasoned frame could stand.-New York Tri- bune

On Sunday, Jan. 5. the MORNING NEWS
will begin the publication of new serial
story, entitled. "The Great Mill Street Mys-
terry" by Miss Adeline Sergeant, author OF
Jacobs Wife," one of the most successful
of recent stories. 1.-THE Great Mil Stree5
Mystery" is powerful story, and viii run
six months. 1t has been secured at very
considerable expense, and will appear
in the DAILY and WEEKLY MORNING
News. 1t can be safely said that it is one
OF the best stories that have been published
by the newspapers for long time, and we
feel certain that it will be greatly enjoyed
by the readers of the MORNING NEWS.
Those who want to read it should subscribe
at once so that they will be certain to get
the numbers containing the first installment
Of this great story. The story alone is we'll
worth the subscription price of the WEEKLY
MORNING NEWS.

The Mayors Power.

Yesterday the MORNING News suggested
tina. if the mayor would assist tae superior
court in enforcing the law against selling
intoxicating liquors on Sunday, it would not
be long before no drunken men would be
seen On the streets on Sunday. II
an interview with the MORNING
4 NEWS week or two ago the
mayor intimated that he had
no way of finding out who violated the
ordinance prohibiting the sale Of intoxicat-
ing liquors on Sunday--that he could not
compel those who bought whisky and beer
on that day, and who were brought before
him on the charge of drunkenness, to Grim
mate themselves by telling where they pur-
chased strong drink. The MORNING NEWS
pointed out that the prisoners would not
criminate themselves by giving such
information as would enable the
mayor to punish those guilty Of violating
the Sunday liquor ordinance. The mayor.
! however, seems TO think differently, and as
long as he entertains that opinion there is
not much probability that he will seek in
formation from the source to which his at
tention has been called.
There is another way, however, in which
the mayor can assist the superior court in
| suppressing drunkenness on Sunday The
| revenue ordinance of the city contains tho
following: "And no barroom shall be
licensed which has not an entrance to it
separate and distinct from the entrance to
the dwelling; and the license may, in dis
erection Of the mayor, be forfeited for viola
ton of any state law or city ordinance; and
in case of forfeiture. the license shall lot
be renewed for the space of two years, ex-
cept by the permission of the council"
Here is a splendid chance for the MAYOR
to show whether he favors enforcing the
ordinance which requires barrooms to be
closed on Sunday. A number of saloon
keepers have pleaded guilty to violating a
state law. Their names are in the records
Of the courts. The mayor has the power to
declare their licenses forfeited. VIII he
exercise that power? II he does not. it will
be assumed doubtless by tie public that he
does not care whether the drinking saloons
are kept open on Sunday or not.s
Last Sunday there were comparatively
few drunken men on the streets. The rea-
son was that most of the saloons were closed.
Why should they not be closed every Sun
day? The better class Of saloon-keepers
prefer that their places shall be closed on
that day. They keep them open only in
self-defense; that is, to retain their regular
weekday customers. Let the sentiment of
the better class rule in this matter. If the
mayor will exercise the power which he has
it will rule.

W. Fl. Heard tcolored), who says that he
is from Georgia, but who is now the pre-
siding elder of the Lancaster pa district,
Philadelphia conference, hastens to attempt
to justify the conduct of the colored people
of Jesup in starting riot in that town the
other day. To letter to the Philadelphia
Press, he asserts that they are treated bru-
tally III Jesup. "Those of us who know
Jesup," he says, "know that even dumb
animals have more showing in that town
than the colored man, and those of us who
have been reared in the south know that
the colored man is slow to strike the white
man, and, if he does so, under most circum-
stances it is in self-defense.n The inference
is very plain. The Rev. Heard would have
the northern people believe that the colored
citizens of Jesup rebelled against inhuman
treatment, and that the white people of
that town were wholly responsible for last
weeks bloody riot.
The class of northerners to whose preiu-
dices this colored preacher politician wishes
to appeal, and of whose credulity he desires
to take advantage, will very likely accept
his statements in preference TO those of
parties who are better qualified to speak of
the causes leading to the Jesup riot To
them the MORNING News has nothing to
say. Justice to the white citizens of Jesup
demands, however, that the ISLANDERS uttered
against them be refuted They have
treated the colored people of that town
better, probably, than colored people are
treated in the north. They have given
money for their education, furnished them
with employment, interested themselves
in their welfare, aud borne patiently with
their shortcomings. There would have been
no riot if negro outlaw had not precipitated
it by shooting down in cold blood an officer
of the law, and if other coIored men of the
place had not united to prevent the arrest
of the murderer. This is the history of a
good many riots in the south, and if colored
people whose positions give them influence
among their race would counsel submission
to the law and friendly feeling between the
whites and blacks, instead of intoxicating
false notions and upholding lawlessness,
they would win the respect rather than
merit the contempt of the whites.

Ex-Gov. Kellogg of Louisiana, says that
he is wholly out of politics, and that, there
fore, he may express opinions which other
wise he would not AS private citizen,
with no desire for political power, he pre-
dicted republican defeat in the Third
Louisiana district, and in Ohio, New York,
and Virginia. Now he predicts that in the
next congressional elections the democrats
will regain the control of the House. He
says that the new navy yard is certain to
be established at New Orleans, because,
even if there were a disposition to amend
the report of the commission, and substitute
the name of some other place. Congressman
Coleman. who is on the naval committee,
would see that New Orleans came out

A correspondent of the New York Herald
wants to know why the custom of making
New Year calls is not returned to. He says:
'The people are firing of the dullness Of
New Years day of late years, and only
want some one to start the movement for a
revival of calling on that day, and will
hail it with delight, and the first day of
each year will become again what it once
was and what it should be, day Of delight
full, enjoyable social intercourse" New
Year calling has been tabooed in fashionable
circles in some cities of late years, but it is
custom out of which a. great deal Of
pleasure may be derived, and one which
makes people think more kindly of each
other. 1t will be adopted again when fash
ion sets the seal of its approval upon it, but
there is no telling when fashion will do SC
sensible a thing.
