DIET OF HORSE MEAT.
A Gotham Editor Tries to Force 1t
Down Chicago's Throat.

RumOrS of horse meat in the Chicago
markets, restaurants and domestic cut
sine have Of late pervaded theair Of that
region, giving rise to a sentiment of
insecurity as to the component ele-
mentS Of ragOutS, entrees and side
dishes which has been found very per-
picking and Occasioned Il good deal Of
dietetic bewilderment and confusion.
Horses have been cheap lately, and
Chicago has her own opinion Of her
own commercial morality, and recent
steaks, both porterhOuse and sirloin,
have in many cases exhibited pc
culiar flavOr-and in short the cOndi-
ton Of things wears an aspect of ir-
regularity, 1t is not probable that
the objection there is to horse meat
as an article of commerce, but only as
an element of local consumption. If
it were canned, or made into bologna
sausa ges, or jerked in the siInilitude
Of beef and shipped away for the sus-
tentation of the ethnic and the heather
beyond her boundaries, it would be
another matter.
There is in Paris n Society of the
HippOphagi, which meets annually and
dimes exclusively on horse meat,
demonstrating by the well-fed appear
ance of its members that it is nutritious
and asserting that it is palatable. On
this testimony Chicago might affirm
that the substance is wholesome and
tit for export, though she evidently
does not wish to have it infltrate and
permeatc her own bills of fare. But
perhaps it is false alarm altogether,
and her surplus horses are still, as
formerly, shipped on the hOof or con-
verted exclusively into glue, isinglass
and sole leather, according to prece-
dent, usage and the statute in that
case made and provided York

Deafness Cannot Re Cured

By local applications rs they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-
tioIal remedies. Deafness is caused by in
famed condition of the mucous lining OF the
Eustachian Tube. Whom this tube Is in
famed. you have a runlblng sound or imper-
feet hearing. and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the infamma-
zion can be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out OF ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing bat an infamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness caused by catarrh that can
not be cured by taking Halls Catarrh Cure.

A man, duly sober and in good shape

Quite So" replied the officer, cycling

InCOrrect VISeS

We lately took occasion to criticise
the writing of anyone or someone as
one word. 1t is suggested to us that
there are one or two other similar and
worse instances of the same sort Thus
we occasionally see oneself instead Of
ones self, and this is apparently tbs
common method of writing the words
in England, and is, of course, liable to
creep into our own English. Another
instance is whatever is used as an in
terrogative. This is a very recent in
novation, but frequently appears Of
late. For example, Whatever did You
do 1T for?" There Is certainly no au.
thority for thus making an interrOga-
tive out of the relative pronoun, and
the use ought to be frowned on.-The

CHARITY THAT CURSES.
Almsgiving Is Not Charity, 1t Is the
Giving of Ones Self.
L. IL

Giving of Ones Self.
DR.. Jane Elizabeth Robbins has a
vigorous paper in the Forum on Char
ity That Helps and Other Charity" in
which she says:
There is many n rich man seated to-
day with easy conscience at q table
shining with cut glass and silver, who
would be ready TO stretch out q helping
hand to those who need ii, if they were
not "all so far away" He is living in
another world. What he does is to
make his annual contributions to our
charitable societies, and that is all.
Some day we will begin to calculate the
evil resulting from such contributions.
Again and again is il true of the chart
ty of to-day that 1t curseth him who
gives and him who takes On the one
hand the poor man. sinking down into
the mire of pauperism. realizes dimly
the bitterness of lis degradation, and
takes the aims offered him with curses
in his heart; while on the other hand
the rich merchant or manufacturer,
who is daily disreSarding the health of
little children and delicate girls, GuetS
his conscience with large check in the
name Of charity. And society applauds
the generosity of such Il man, and his
eyes are blinded. 1t is SO tempting to
the rich to think that by giving O
check for the support Of Il social scheme
poverty may be abolished, and they be
left free to enjoy their wealth. They
always hope that something, not them
selves, might meet all needs
lone is often asked the question:
What can the rich man do for the re-
lief of suffering:' l believe there is but
one answer: Let him give not aims but
himself. and the wisdom comes with the
giving. L knew q young apprentice in
a great machine shop who was stricken
down with consumption. His parents
were old and feeble, and it was only
through the gifts OF his employer that
MS last days We're made comfortable.
but more 10 them all than the gifts was
the fact that the employer came him
self to the little home in the East Side
tenement, and spoke friendly words.
From every such natural friendship
there grows more and more chanccs-for
helpfulness, and for that trucst charity
of all charities treating of others
as if they were of our own kind"

The Biz steal.

The Gazette's special OF the 25th
says that there is a great deal of parb
tisan spirit showing itself in Carson
e tho examination OF Jones, the ex.
Assistant Meter and Refuer of the
Mint. 1t charges that one ofthe new
ly elected State officials has remark
ed that he could be drawn on for a
$1,000 il Jones or any of his followers
were cinched. Itgives the following
proceedings Of the examination:
THE examination opened up with
Hirsch Harris, Meter and Refner of
the Mint, on the stand, when the
United States District Attorney cor,
hnued his direct examination of the
witness.
AT the opeeing of the examination
this morning United States District
Attorney Jones asked that the public
be admitted, but the motion was con.
tested by the defendants and Com.
missioner Edwards ordered that the
examination be continued with clos
ed doors.
The Mint record Of the Meter and
Refiner's department. for the years
1928 were produced, and it was
shown by Meter and Reflner Harris
that there are seven instances where
there is no record in the books kept
by Jones specially for the purpose of
the metals used in combination melts,
thereby preventing the tracing OF
bullion used in such melts. II a rec,
ord Of these metals had been kept,
as is the custom in all Mints, tho
bullion used could have been easily
traced.
1T Is claimed that the absence Of a
proper record shows designing inten-
ton on the part OF Jones to prevent
the tracing Of bullion sent to the
Mint to be refined.
at is further shown by records that
entries made have been scratched and
changed.
ut is claimed by defendants that the
key spoked OF yesterday was not
found in Jones desk, but in Harris
vault between two old books. The
rust on the key and heavy dust on the
books and key so to prove that the
latter had not been touched for u long
time. This was brought out on the
cross examination OF Harris.
Harris direct examination closed
at l:3O, when defendants attorneys
took him. He was severely ques.
toned by Attorney Coffin about Mint
matters in general, and did not prove
himself es well up in such matters as
did Inspector Mason yesterday. He
houndered about a good deal in the
cross examination, and contradicted
himself in some important matters.
Harris was still under fire at the
Gazette's press hour"
