Repair the Pavement.

That "step-off," as Chairman Gil
bert calls it, in the pavement in front
of Mrs. Rosenfield's millinery store
needs attention. More than one per

stepped on the sIanting rock there,
and has come in violent contact with
the pavement. A little work would
repair it. Suppose a man should
cripple himself on such a place.

Here Is to You.

A few nights ago while the south
bound passenger train was standing
at the depot platform at Bowling
Green, a negro man entered the
coach for white people and deliber-
ately took a seat leaving several
ladies to stand up. The negro was
asked by the conductor and flagman
to give his seat to lady, but he re-
fused to do it. Before he knew what
had struck him he found himself
lifted bodily from the seat and
pitched head first through a window.

The LondOr Lancet records a remark
able case, which illustrates what human
beings are driven to do when suffering
the agonles Of starvation. The body of
an Arab was found in the hold Of a ship,
and was conveyed to the Seameu's hos
pital, Greenwich. where a post mortem
examination was made by order of the
coroner. The body was much emaciated,
and the following extraordinary list Of
materials was found in the intestines:
Twenty trousers buttons, three cog
wheels apparently out of watch, one
pinch steel screw bent double, one l-inch
screw, SIX pieces of lock, the biggest
being l. inches long and one-half inch
broad; a circular piece Of brass, several
pieces of iron wire, brass, lead, and
two key tallies on ring one inch IN
length.
The weight Of the articles amounted
to almost half pound. The unfortunate
man had evidently sncreted himself in
the vessel. and had remained undiscov-
cred by the crew during the whole Of the
voyage from some distant port, and had
swallowed these articles to relieve the
pangs of hunger,

"Beauty lDithout grace

His cage hung in front Of canal store;
and as a consequence the bird could
swear in a manner to make an ordinary
parrots feathers stand up with horror.
And as swearing is-or used to be-the
chief part Of a canal drivers language,
nobody could tell whether the parrot or
a driver was talking.
One day boat stopped at the store
and the entire crew, including the driver,
went into the building and staid long
time. This was the parrots opportunity.
The tired horses were left unattended:
so he proceeded to attend to them.

swearing.
The horses promptly obeyed the ia

They obeyed again, and yet again And
he kept on swearing and yelling Back"
until at last the horses tumbled into the
canal and were drowned.
The parrot laughed a little, but not
much, over the success of his efforts.
And it was noticed that he never swore
after that melancholy affair.
The reason was that the driver wrung

SECRETARY FOSTER deserves cred
it for having refused to allow the
sons of two prominent treasury de-
partment officials to be appointed
private secretaries to their fathers.
The practice among officials of
placing members of their immedi-
ate families upon the government
pay rolls is at best bad one, and
should be entirely abolished as far
as republicans are concerned. 1t
has been the cause of more than
one scandal. We tip our hat to
the man who dares to do right,
even though he thereby offends
some of his friends.
