legitimate place. The Washington
writer has made this a matter of some
investigation, and finds that great
portion of the product is honestly made,
and free from improper and noXiOus in
gradients. but the absence of tnoroug h
and reliable Official tests leaves the con-
sumer little opportunity to make the
proper discrimination. All is subjected
to suspicion. Even in those imported,
to insure the possession of that which
has assurance OF purity, imposition is
often practiced. The case of Pilsener
beer is cited. This is sold all over the
country as the genuine article, and the
official figures show that only $4,000
worth of it was imported last year. The
imposition in wines is still greater. A
Hungarian journal is quoted in refer
emce to the Importation of wines from
that country. A dealer in New York
has a large trade in these, especially
the TOkay. which physicians have been
induced to commend for medicinal uses.
Yet the custom house records show that
this man has not imported a bottle of
Hungarian wine in eight years. His
genuine Tokay is an abominable con-
coctiOn. Port wine is particularly I'M
certain, and faith is needed in most of
the brandies. As there has been no
way devised to prevent the use of
stimulating beverages, it is humane to
keep them as free as possible from
neXious qualities.

The death of HANNIBAL HAMLIN
leaves no eX-yice president living, al
though there are two ex-presidentS. 1t
is not remembered that there are more
than one or two living members of cab
inets in any period before the war.
JAMES CAMPBELL, of Philadelphia,
who was in the official family of Presi-
dent PIERCE. is the Oldest of them, and
he has to look a good ways down TO see
more than scattering successors living.
1t may be useful for those who are eager
10 hold the highest positions at Washing
ton to note that longevity is remarkably
rare among the successful aspirants. 1t
will trouble the intelligent reader TO re-
call the name of any man living, except
ing the present incumbent, who has
ever been the nominee of either of the
two great parties for vice president.
Nor is there among the living one
who has been the candidate of either
of these parties for president now out
of the position, except CLEVELAND and
HAYES, a sample of each sort. 1t
would be difficult to recall all the third
party candidates. and it may be that
candidacy did not amount TO enough to
reduce their vitality. HAMLIN broke
all the modern records by remaining
more than quarter OF century after
his candidacy and reaching the ripe
age of eighty-two. He went out on the
Fourth of July. at the exact distance
from the end of the century that his
birth was from the beginning. He
lived the entire nineteenth century. eX-
cept the little rim of nine years at either
end. Perhaps he thought of this and
of the patriotic fact that two of the
fathers, Presidents ADAMS and JET
FERSoN, died on the Fourth of
July just seYenty-ive years previous.
1t is not insisted, however, that
there is special patriotism in dy-
ing on the Fourth of July. There is still
glamour of fitness, as it were, in the
men who were identified with the
official life back toward the beginning
making that date. In looking for causes
for the rare, if not unprecedented Ion
geyity Of Mr.. HANLIN among his class,
one Of his reputed peculiarities will
probably be suggested. 1t has been the
current statement that he never wore
an Overcoat. He lived in a climate as
cold, and, on account of the dampness of
the atmosphere, more trying to the sys-
TEN than thatOf Minnesota. He omitted
the outer enclosure because he did not
need it. He wore underclothes that
answered the same purpose, and some
hygienic philosophers insist that it
would be better if people generally
came nearer his practice. lie possessed
health aud vigor to the hour of his
death. Perhaps the most valuable les
son his life may afford the country Will
be found in the fact that he never wore

weeks engagement last evening. The audi
ence showed its appreciation and pleasure
from opening to finale by spontaneous APP

shown good judgment in selecting artists for
the several speciaities presen,ed, and there
are no novices acting principal parts in their
presentation of "Kajanka' Mile. Bertotto,
a French child of thirteen years, is
very clever in dancing a numb er
of artistic steps, and captivated the
audience with her proficiency i'll

citation as the clown. The eight French ac

usually are Misses Ada Menette. Ada An
sen and the Lincoln sisters gave general sat
isfaction by their dancing. Added to
troupe of good artists is fine scenery and
good stage equipments. The closing tab
leau is gratifying as a scenic production. 1t
is safe to say that good audiences will be in
attendance during the entire week.

SHOuLD NOT KICK.

1t is sometimes remarked that the
only way to beat the life insurance COM
pany is to die. A man in the East died
little time since, and it was found that
he carried insurance policies to the
round sum of S5,OOO,O 900, He was rated
high by the companies while he lived,
and paid his premiums regularly, but
since lie dropped off there is trouble.
1t is feared that he was not right in his
mind, and committed suicide. This is
TO be made barrier to the great out
flow from the insurance treasury that
must otherwise ensue. The wayfarer
who does not comprehend the deep
things of life insurance has an impress
sion that suicide shou d not have any
place in this matter. A man who in
sures his life for $1,000, 600 is wrong In
the head and not responsible for his
acts. 1t would be difficult for most
men to resist the temptation to make
100000 by suicide. Companies that
are foolish enough to insure for such an
amount should pay without kicking
about suicide

MUST BE DEFENDED.

A Boston paper relates that police
man in that city lately arrested a man
for kissing his wife on the street. Pos
sibly it may be a suspicious circum-
stance in that locality for husband to
salute his better fraction in that way at
any time. In Chicago it would afford
presumption that divorce was soon to
be needed. In Philadelphia, too, the
head of the family came to grief from
similar cause. But a prominent Mis-
souri, town, st. Joseph, has a case where
trouble ensued by reason of the star
coated guardian, in his sleepleSs vigi-
lance. observing the Young man kissing
the loved one over the gate. The indig-
nant prospective m0ther-in-law walled

cious and insulting, endangering the
prospects of her daughter. She asserted
that the osculatory exchange involved
no infraction of the public peace,
and was not only the immutable
right of the parties, but natural
and commendable. Were all the moth
erS-in-law of that temperament, there
would perhaps be more daughters mar
ried and fewer Opponents. AS the run
of the thing is, the young man would as
soon engage in this tender exercise I'M
der the eye of the police as the equally

SOUND HORSES.
Interesting Discussion of This
Most Important Question.

Most Important Question.
What constitutes sound horse? Who
can answer? One authority has said
that when applied to horses ''sOund"
means perfect" but this definition has
been overthrow, for there is scarcely
perfect horse in existence. The most
skillful veterinary surgeon cannot many
times tell whether a horse is sound or
not. The internal organs are hidden
from view, and symptoms of their affec-
tons are not always clear and plain.
The organs of respiration vary in diff
ferent animals under different condl-
tions, and any apparent abnormal respir-
alton, for instance, might in one case
indicate disease, and in another not,
even though the apparent OF real alb
normal reSpiratiOnS were exactly alike.
Similar undecisive conditions may pre-
vail in the osseOuS anatomy. No two
horses are alike in osseOus development,
hence arise the strange anomalies in the
ribs and joints about which experts are
so prone to differ in opinion as to the
presence or absence of disease.
The hooks, for instance, present such
a variety i'll conformation, and in some
instances such unusual development of
bony structures as to render correct
diagnosis matter of the greatest uncer-
tainty. If the extraordinary osseous de-
velopment is congenital, then so far as
this point is concerned the animal is
sound, but otherwise not. Not know
ing the animal from birth up no one
could tell whether he was sound or not.
There are several different conforma-
tionS of horses and gaits in travel that
often indicate unSoundness in some re-
L0S..
struction of the rump, when existing in
action behind the appearance of
lameneSs in one hind limb when
the horse goes from you; in the
other when he approaches. A slight
inclination inward of one fore foot con-
yeys the impression of lamenesS in the
opposite limb, and this inclination may
be caused by improper shoeing.
Straight shoulders and upright action
tend to the belief of lameness in both
fore legs. The hind legs set widely
apart occasion oscillation of the body,
and sense of lameneSS is melted as
affecting both fore limbs. and in conse-
quence when the animal moves he APP
pears ''stiff in 'front.'" or "fOundered."
So often disease exists when there are
no evidences of it, and so frequently
does disease not exist when there is ap-
parent evidence of it. that, unless evil
dences are clear and beyond dispute, it
is precarious to express a judgment.
A second authority, in defining
'soundness," says: ''If the disease is
not of such a nature as to impair the
natural usefulness of the animal for the
purposes for which he is used. it will
not amount to an unSoundneSS." A
third authority states similarly as fol-
lows: IF horse is purchased to be
used in a given way the word sound
means that the animal is sound for that
purpose; and unsound means that he is
at the time affected with something
which will have the effect of impairing
that use. In large majority of cases
horse warranty is not worth more than
a snap of tile inger."

RoAsTs THE GOVERNMENT.
Rev. Butrick Takes Another Shot
at the Municipality.

"What wonder that they nave piled
up a debt against the city of S12, 1000,
or within 1000, 900 of the entire debt of
the city of Chicagov' exclaimed Rev.
Wallace H. Butrick, pastor of tie First
Baptist church, in the course of mis-
sermon last evening. Il was resump-
ton of his series of sermons upon the
municipal administration. 1t was sharp
and biting throughout, and none of
the departments have escaped the argus
eyes of the searching pastor.
AS prelude to the eruption that was
to follow, Mr.. Butrick discoursed for a
few moments upon patriotic phases. He
felt it incumbent upon the minister of
the gospel to say something patriotic
upon the Sabbath that follows Fourth
day of July so closely. He explained
that he had been reading two books of
recent issue, that he wished TO pro-
nounce excellent works, upon the sci
ence of political economy. and he urged
his congregation to read them. One is
by Mr.. Brice, an English writer, and
the other by Prof. Fisk. of Harvard.
These books agree that the modern
tendency Is towards Capitalization.
They show that over 80 per cent of the
people of the United States live in
cities of over 5000. Then Mr..
Butrick declared absolutely that
our system of popular govern
ment, after quoting the immortal
words of Lincoln, that it is "a govern
ment of the people, by the people and
for the people" is failure In the cities.

PALo ALTO GOSSIP.
Doings of Some of the Famous
CalifOrnianS.

Reports from Palo Alto are to the eff
feet that the horses are doing wonders.
Sunol is the chief attraction, and the
famous mare is moving as she has never
moved before. A few days ago she
trotted down the quarter on the home
stretch in the phenomenal time of 29X
seconds-a l :5S gait. The performance
has greatly encouraged Senator Stan
lord and Marvin, and it is now consid-
cred almost surety that Sunol will
this year reduce Maud SIS record Of
2:0SM.
Palo Alto is also doing we'll. Although
he has not been worked as strong as
Sunol. he has trotted a quarter in 31115
seconds. 1t comes from Palo Alto on
good authority that Senator Stanford
will not match the horse against SIAM
boul as matter of principle, but that lie
VIII surely enter him in race if any as
soclation will hang up suitable purse
to attract the two famous stations.
Marvin has two yearlingS up, with
both of which he is confident that he
will beat Freedoms record of 2:29%.
The choice of the pair is FLY by Az
moor, dam the thoroughbred mare En-
ma Robson. Azmoor is deeply bred on
thoroughbred lines, he being by Elec-
tloneer. out of the thoroughbred mare
Mamie G., by imported Hercules. Surely
if this FLY, with over three-fourths of
thoroughbred blood in her veins. beats
Freedoms record, the croakers against
the thoroughbred cross theory will have
a hard argument to overcome by theo-
critical disputations.
The other candidate for yearlDg
honors is Belflower, full sister to
Kinda Rose and Bell Boy, she being by
Electioneer out of Beautiful Bells Both
fllies are natural trotterS, and are at
this early date showing quarters better
than 40 seconds.
Kinda Rose, 2:1915, the mare that in
1888 as a three-year-old showed the way
to all the three-year-OldS, making a rec
ord of 2: 1917, which was then the fast
est for that age, is to be trained again
this year, after an absence OF four years
from the turf. 1t is said that Trainer
Marvin expects Kinda Rose to equal, if
not beat. Manzanita's four-year-oid rec,
ord of 2:16,
