BerIin Makes 1t an Offense Punishable by
Fine or imprisonment.
Our Berlin correspondent has recently
apprised us that the Berlin police are
permanently under instructions to re-
press whistling, whether recreative or
utilitarian, with the utmost rigor and
display unrelaxing energy in carrying
ont their orders to the letter. Whistling
in public is not only repugnant TO the
German apprehensions of ''die hohere
Bildung," or higher culture, but actually
constitutes minor misdemeanor, and
as such is punishable by fine, with the
inevitable alternative of imprisonment
The former penalty has been incurred
within the past few days by hall por-
ter of fashionable hotel, Inter den
Linden, who persisted in sounding his
whistle to summon a cab for a client of
the establishment after having been for
hidden to do so by an agent of the law.
Appealing from the sentence of the po-
lice authorities to the judgment of a
civil court, the porter pleaded that from
time immemorial it had been the custom
in Berlin to whistle for droskies once,
twice, thrice or four times, according to
the relative quality or capacity of the
vehicle required. This plea, however,
the judge rejected as irrelevant to the
point at issue-towit, the illegality of
whistling in public thoroughfare-and
further mulcted the appellant in the sum
of 3 marks ''for making a noise that dis
turbed the repose of the public"
In some respects the Prussian police
authorities-to their credit and praise be
it admitted-are much stricter than our
own in enforcing the suppression of noise
nuisances. They are inf1exible, for in
stance, in prohibiting the performance of
street bands. They only grant organ
grinding licenses to a few infirm old SOL
diers, who moreover are not permitted
to work their instruments of torture in
roadways or sidewalks, but only in GER
tain prescribed open places or in the
courtyards of private houses at the spe-
cial request of their inmates. On the
other hand, they are overtolerant with
regard to all manner of street cries and
to the distracting clamor raised by the
children on their way to and from school
at certain hours of the day.
Prussia is conspicuously music low
ing and music making country. AS the
inhabitants of its cities, however, for the
most part live in flats, they are not al
lowed to play or sing in their apartments
after 10 o'clock p. m. unless with the
express consent of the persons residing
Immediately above or below them, whose
innate right to enjoy unbroken rest so
nights" they are bound to respect. Nor
may they keep on their premises any
furred or feathered animals addicted to
the nocturnal utterance of sounds that
murder sleep" and give rise to irrita-
ton of temper. The conscientious dog,
prompted by sense of duty to bark all
night, if VIGOROUSLY vociferous, has to
be severely eliminated from the precincts
of Prussian town house.-London Tel

The sagacity of dog saved a Wo-
burn family from being burned to death.
Fire started in the house of John Roo
neY on Poole street, North Woburn,
about 3 o'clock in the morning, and the
family, consisting of five persons, bare
ly escaped with their lives. They were
saved by the instinct of the house dog,
who rushed up stairs and aroused Mr..
Rooney by barking. Escape by the stair
ways to the lower part Of the house was
cut off by the fire, and the upper rooms
were fast filling with smoke. Mr.. Roo
ney succeeded in tying some bed cover
ing together. and with this lowered one
of his sons to the ground. He obtained
ladder and rescued the others, but not
until they were nearly overcome by the
smoke. Afterward the dog was found
crouching in corner Of one of the
rooms nearly suffocated. - Boston Tran

A Remarkable Sight.

There is a natural gas spring in Idaho
that is one of the most remarkable
sights ever witnessed. 1t is about 100
miles from Boise City and is at the bot
tom Of a canyon. The rock there seems
to be Of a porous nature, and there are
innumerable small holes and fissures.
These are lighted by tourists, who drop
matches into them until space of about
an acre in extent is sending forth bright
blue flames. New York Post.

Oblong buckles, curved more or less,
are most approved decoration now for
hats. When intended for this purpose,
they have rather formidable pointed
tongues, which pierce the ribbon OF
drapery drawn through the buckle. Ere
quently they measure six or eight inches
in length and will go nearly half round
the crown Of sailor hat. But their use
is not confined to this shape of hat. They
deck broad brims and toques equally well.
Similar buckles are made in cut jet, but
that in imitation diamonds is the favor
ite.-London Milliner.

HAND N HAND.

When spring was young and life was new
Love was our only friend and guide.
Sweet were the bowers he led us through
And sweet our going side by side.
Then summer came, a golden flood,
And still we followed hand in hand.
Love was the music in our blood
And love the glory Of the land.
Rich autumn fell, and winter drove
The fruity ripeness from the air.
But wrapped in warm, soft robes of love,
What recked we if the world was bare?
So round again we come to spring,
Strong for another years emprise.
The birds are whist to hear US sing,
The sun is dazzled by our eyes.
For hand in hand, where'er we go,
Earth under foot and heaven above,
Love is the only life we know,
And every breath we breathe is love.

To County Committeeman.

The way to succeed at an election
when q msjority Of the voters are on the
right side is to get the full vote polled,
and this is the most important work
county committees can do from now
until November 6. II it has not already
been done, get the county committee
together and prepare for the greatest
political battle Of the age. Arrange to
have one or more we'll known resident
Populists in each school district and
city precinct canvass the district or pre-
oinct on election morning or the day be-
fore, and urge our people to come out
and vote.
Neglect on the part Of county COM
mittess may result seriously. The loss
Of one vote in each school district 10 the
state means q total loss OF nearly 10000.
The enemy is hard at work and their
only encouragement lies in their hope
that Populists will neglect this matter
Of voting 90 was the case In many Coun-
ties last year. Every person who reads
this and feels interested can do some
good by speaking to his county chair

OlRthe.itself Is a very beautiful little
city, with many fine residences and
lawns. Her people are intelligent, en-
terprising and patriotic. The majority
Of her business houses were decorated
by the stars and stripes in honor Of the
governor. Even the courthouse which
is filed with most excellent republican
officials (who ought to be all Pops) ran
up old glory on the dome. OF course,
here and there was Q business man who
either forgot or who was too blinded by
party prejudice, who failed to show this
little mark Of courtesy. Owing to the
threatening weather in the morning the
crowd was not as large ss otherwise it
would have been, but about 1000 or
1,200 people gathered in the courthouse
square at 2 p. m. to hear the present and
next governor. There were many repub-
licRns there who went away sRddsr but
wiser men. just as the governor closed
his speech it commenced to rain. /
think the rain came 30 that the
seed he had sown might take root and
grow a few POpulistic ideas in the
brains and hearts Of those republican
hearers. The crowd at once repaired
to the opera house where Judge DOster
spoke For about an hour, when the
meeting adjourned to meet there again
in the evening. Notwithstanding the
rain full house greeted the two speak
ers. For nearly two hours Judge Dos
ter held that audience by the power OF
his logic and eloquence. It is true that
some parties whose brains are situated
where they wear their Cleveland badges
tried to interrupt him with some imper'
tinent questions, but the Judge soon
hung their porous hides on the electric
wires and went on with his mastery ad'
dress. The governor followed in short
speech which went home to the hearts
and consciences of those who heard him.
