have the houses OF i'll fame on Park avenue
removed, basing their request on the fact
that Indies who drive, have TO make thai

Illuminating and utterly sapping the founda-

This WAS read before tho council and re-
ferred to The Judiciary committee. who

public morals to further our side in your
paper. j..
We ask If. when physicians saw they treat
boys of II years for diseases contracted IN
these houses; If, when little boys tell their
little girl friends that they all so there, the

Q money! money! are We always to be

a War Story Of HeroIsm and Other
Things.
q certain regiment had for acolonel,
PROBABLY as strict a disciplinarian as
ever wore epaulets. There has been
considerable difficulty on account OF
the persistent and constant foragin,
by his men. Complaints came in
every day on account of the depreda-
tlons, and the colonel at last became
SO annoyed that one day on dress
parade it was announced that the
first man caught poaching from the
citizens should be shot.
Peter Elder was O. member Of the.
regiment. He was stout, strappine
fellow, and was known to be the most
reckless forager OF the lot. Hs had
spent week after week in the guard
house for his chicken stealing, but it
did not stop him. He always had
some plausible story to tell when
caught at his favorlte amusement,
ana his comrades wondered whether
TINS last menace on the part of
the Colonel would have any lettering
effect. o
Pete one day in broad daylight was
seen walking into the camp with q,
| small-slzed dead lamb hanging over
his shoulder. He made no ATTEMPT
whatever to hide it, but marched
boldly toward his quarters
His course led him: directly past
she colonel's tent. That officer
knew Pete WE'LL The rascal had in
tact been so often before the colonel
that they had had ample chance to
become acquainted.
The colonel saw him at this time
and ne called out: "Hello there, Pete.
what have yougot onyour shoulder?'
Jest got a young sheep, Colonel
said Pete.
"Where did you get it?' asked the
| Colonel.
.'Jest down the road about two
mile, Colonel"
did you buy it Pete?''
"No, sir; | didn't buy no sheep"
'Well, did you steal it?"
tWell, now, see here, Colonel, amt
goin' to tell you no lie. was coming
along the road quietly and peaceably
enough, when that there critter made
straight for me. jest killed it in self
protection. l tell you, Colonel, I
amt the man..to let no sheep bite me-"
