4 Bear Climbing a Tree.

Even professional taxidermists some
times make blunders in their work. A
funny instance of lack of thought by an
animal stuffer is to be seen in show
window of a Broadway cloakmaker,
where there is dead polar bear in the
act of climbing tree.
Thousands of persons pass that bear
every day, and it is safe to say that not
one in a million ever sees how untrue to
nature it is for polar bear to climb a
tree.
There aren't any trees in the polar re-
gions where the white bear comes from.
Perhaps the bears would learn to climb
them If there were.-New York Herald.

REV. ANNA SHAW, in the Journal OF
Politics for September, defends the fast
relaxing demand for the ballot for
woman. After lauding the home as the
holy Of holes and its supreme fitness for
woman, she claims the ballot for woman
'for the protection Of the home" This
is begging the question. The man has
an equal interest in the home and is not
more likely to break down the safeguards
that surround it than is woman. The
ballot will not protect the home without
the physical capacity to give it effective
ness. There We reach the kernel of the
whole question. 1t is the one turning
point in the woman suffrage debate, the
forks in the road that turned aside Mr..
Gladstone, who was famous as woman's
rights advocate, and that has changed the
current of opinion among the best think
ers Of the age.

OUR evening contemporary wants to
know why, if we favor the granting of
the franchise for an electric road on G
street, we did not advocate the granting
of the Jacobs-Thomson franchise. For
the best of reasons. We were unable to
satisfy ourselves that the Oakland gentle
men intended to build the road. We do
not charge that they wanted to get the
franchise in order to compel the old COM
pany to buy them out, but such things
have been done in this city several times,
and every time the people have had to
pay dearly for it. Some people talked
very loudly about the advantages the city
would reap from competing electric
light company, but when the franchise
was granted the new company sold out to
the old one before it put up pole. If
Messrs. Jacobs and Thomson were in
earnest, why did they withdraw their ap-
plication when it was generally under
stood that two of the Trustees were ready
TO vote for itP But all this has nothing to
do with the merits of the petition for a
road on G street now. That petition
should be granted, because large and
thickly settled portion of the city is with
out street railway facilities, which it is
asking for and ought to have.

THE President of the United States says:


1t is an outrage that the steamship com
panies continue to bring in Immigrants from
infected ports. Say to them that 1t should
stop, or it is certain every ship will bring dis
ease, and we may be compelled to turn back
such pest-laden vessels.
Very true; but why, if he is invested
with the power he claims, did not the
President turn back the ships all the
country knew had sailed from infected
ports for the port of New York? The
RECoRD-UNIoN has maintained uni
formly that the policy Of self-protection
is the true one in this matter; that there
is no moral or legal right in transporta-
ton agencies to bring from foreign parts
cargoes of disease and woe. If we have
not the right to close the door in the face
Of unwelcome guests, then we are not
masters in our own households.

crank as a general political nuisance is
the State's-rights hardshell, who is so
jealous of his own that he dare not trust
the delegated representatives of all the
States to make laws for the pro-
lection of the nation, laws which the
States, as States, are unequal to, since
they do not have control and regulation
of commerce. These sticklers for soy
ereignty in the State carry their doctrine
to the extreme of antagonism to the
Federal Government, forgetful Of or
stupidity blind to the fact that as the
Nation has grown so have its needs for
broader and better guards against foreign
assault. In the last Congress Senator
Harris of Tennessee, as Chairman of the
Committee on Epidemic Diseases, intro
duced bill to prevent steamship COM
panies from importing infectious and
contagious diseases; but the States
rights sticklers killed the measure, and
to-day we have, as consequence, a ma
ton of "a, 100000 of people at the mercy of
a dozen foreign steamship companies,
who are dumping upon our shores
northumberland cargoes of the dirty and
unsanitary peasantry of Europe. 1t is
said that in another week there will be in
quarantine 10000 of these people, if
cholera immigration is not stopped. But
unless the President seizes authority it
would seem that there is no power to lay
an embargo upon this importation. All
which is due to the silly fears of Demo-
Gratis whose shell is impenetrable to pro-
gressive ideas that due authority to pro-
tect nation must be reposed in the
national arm; that the State is best pro-
tected against the importation of disease
that enjoys the benefits of a sea quaran-
tine or an embargo upon the incoming OF
disease-ladened ships; that a uniform,
systematic and symmetrical plan of bar
riers against epidemic diseases is in
hnitely better for the States than the
individual action of States quarantining
against each other, which under the right
of interstate commerce is little removed
from the farcical.

How She Wears Her Hair.

Hardly a woman wears her hair en-.
tirely plain. She may not be given to
putting and waving and curling the locks
themselves, but she is very apt to intro
duce some sort of ornament into it.
Bandeaux are very popular, and come in
gold, silver and tortoise shell, as well as
in ribbon to match the gown. Then
there is an especially elaborate piece of
network of gold and pearls called the
Mary Stuart Golf, which is worn over the
loosely coiled hair, but is rather expen-
sive for the woman of moderate means.
Very pretty braids in silver, with high,
crownlike fronts cut in long, slender
points. and either Furnished until they
shine like diamonds or left dull, are be-
coming to all faces, and need no special
arrangement of the hair, as they sit well
on the head, whether it is arranged high
or low.-New York Letter.

She Killed Panther with an Ak.

Mrs. Susan Neal, seventy years old,
who lives with her son on ranch in
Maverick county, skilled a full grown
panther with an ak. She was out in the
yard when some animal rushed by her
which she thought was a dog until she
turned around and saw full grown
panther in a small tree near her. She
called two dogs, but one of them ran
away. The other saw the beast and
made dash for it. The panther sprang
out of the tree and ran toward a pen
where number of kids were confined,
but just us he sprang on the fence
the dog caught him and they began
fighting. The other dog now returned
and took a hand in the fight. Mrs.
Neal seized an ak, and when the dogs
distracted the panther's attention she
dealt it a blow on the head which
stunned it and allowed her to strike a
fatal blow.-Texas Cor. Chicago Herald.
