A Libel on the Cow.

1.-THE COW is a born thief" said
Thomas Grimshaw to 4 party of COM
mercial pilgrims who were discussing
zoology in the Lindell rotunda 'She
will leave a square meal, gotten up ex-
pressly for her by an imported chief,
to wear her tongue as thin as polit-
ical platform trying to coax a wisp of
rotten straw through a crack in a
neighbours barn. She relishes nothing
so much as what she steals. She has
long head, and could give many of our
military heroes points on strategy,
Any COW that has paid attention to her
education can open a garden gate that
fastens with n bank vault lock, get in
side and do fifty dollars worth of dam
age before the Infatuated owner can re-
member that the shotgun is not loaded.
The COW is a calf, if our city butchers
are TO be believed, until there IS no
more room on her horns for rings.
When she is too old to give two quarts
of milk per diem and then kick it all
over the dewy-lipped milkmaid. the
careful farmer drives her on a railroad
track, wrecks a freight train with her,
and then sues the company for the
price of Jersey. OF course the COM
pany kicks worse than the COW ever
did, but the honest agriculturist gets
jury of fellow farmers and the soul
less monopoly has TO come to taw. st.

wasn't the Generals Cow.

In seaport town, a general and an
admiral were neighbors. The generals
house was fronted by grass plot, on
which he claimed the right to pasture
a COW. One day his wife complained
the supply of milk was falling short.
The sentinel accounted for the def
cheney by saying that the pasture had
lately been much trodden down by the
public. Thereupon the martial despot
gave orders that no human or other
animal except the COW should be al
lowed on the grass plot; and added
men were not particular in those days
that. if this rule was i1fringed, the
sentinel should be fogged. Soon after
ward the admirars wife, having press
ing engagement, took short cut over
the grass in disregard of the sentineIs
repeated order to stand back Com
mon soldier" said the offended lady.
don't you know who amp ''All 1
know is that you're not the generals

HOP LUNG AND CHOW TAI.
Chinese High Joiuts Selected to Raise
Funds and Fight the Exclusion Act.

Chinese High Joiuts Selected to Raise
Funds and Fight the Exclusion Act.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.--Ilop Lung and
Chow Tai are two of the most promi-
nent Cinnamon in Chicago. They are
merchants, and Chow Tai is frequent
contributor to the Chicago daily news
papers He writes and reads English
with equal fluencv Both arrived in
the city yesterday on an important
mission. Their first business after get
ting settled at their handsome apart
ments with bath at the Arlington,
was to call at the Chinese legation.
They had long conference with the
minister, relative to the Chinese exclu-
sion act. The outcome of the confer
ence was related TO correspondent by
Chow Tai.
I'VE have concluded to put the con-
stitutiOnality of the Geary exclusion
act to Il legal test" he said. 1--WE have
the opinion of the ablest legal talent in
the country that the law is unconstitu-
tionaL The Chinese residents of Chica-
go have got together and employed
Luther Latin Mills as their attorney
to conduct the test case. Before taking
definite action, however, it was thought
best to see the Chinese minister: that
was the object of our conference The
minister approves our course, and we
shall go ahead now with some matters
which will have an important bearing
on the subject"
What these matters are became APP
parent later, when the two Chicago
emissaries entered carriage and drove
to the business house of leading Chinese
residents of Washington. They are the
accredited agents of an association of
Chinese residents of Chicago, with
whom the idea of employing counsel
originated. and are authorized to solicit
funds for the purpose of defraying all
expenses connected with the case. After
completing their work here they will
visit New York, Boston, Philadelphia
and st. Louis.

had cured a nervous headache by Just

night she held herself with all her old

her male attendants were many. and
though elderly still of the most desired.
She preferred but a sprinlzling of
younger devotees liz her train: she con-
sidered it beneath the dignity of a
woman rs old as herself to receive an
overplus of homage from stripliugs.
That would have been almost as infe-
hcitous as though she had condescended
to dance: and. while she did not dream
of dancing, she nevertheless abhorred
the dais consecrated to dowagers, but
moved and stood near it. holding little
