Talk about the wild and woolly west.
We don't have wild cattle rushing about
our streets as frequently as they do in
New York city or Brooklyn. Last Sun
day the staid church -goers of brooklyn
were nearly scared out of their wits by a
mad bull tearing through the streets.
Such a thing is OF quite frequent occur.
renee on the West Side in New York.
The occasion of it is that in moving
droves of cattle from one ferry to an
other, or from one stockyaId to another,
some one of the drove is apt to get fright
ened and separated from the others. 1t is
curious phase of animal intelligence
that when an OK finds himself on the
streets Of large city and separated from
his companions he goes stark mau, ''all

eress rather than OF retroGression. The
debating club is well enough in its place
as a preparatory school for young aspir-
ants in the uratorical field. But for men
of acknowledged abilities to resort to it is
a step backward.
Perhaps the most vital reason of the
lack of interest in this contest lies in the
fact that the issue is dead one. The
little scheme was sprung a few months
too late. Not long ago there was no
little interest in the silver question, but
of late the public has lost concern in the
matter. Whether it died a natural death
or was talked to death is now the only
question.

this dollar. otherwise it would be purely
Oriental in design. The trident on the

Information Wanted


Editor Herald There are some points
in regard to the recent change OF the
French teacher OF the high school upon
which the public would like some light.
FIRST, how is at that none OF the school
board have ever heard anything against
the ability of Miss Whitney ms teacher
OF French except what has come through
Mr. Pitman, presumably from the rabbi
seeking the place for himself? At the
same time Mr.. Ptnian assured friends OF
Miss Whitney that the subject of incom-
petency never came up before the hoard.
Still MIR. Pitman said in open meeting
that Professor Gates sent in bad reports of
Miss Whitney's work. and then comes this
denial from Professor Gates that he never
made the remarks attributed to him.
Second-What reason was there for the
frequent visits of Rabbi Blum at the re-
sidence of Mr.. Pitman during the two
months preceding the election. as re-
ported by well-known Jewish gentle
man?
Third-How is it that the claim was
made that the jewish population wished
to be represented when such demand
was never made except possibly by Blum
to Mr.. Pitman?
Foufth--WhJ was Mr.. Blum railroaded
into the place without the knowledge Of
one of the three mem bers OF tn, teach
ers' committee?
There is not respectable French citi-
zen who knows Blum who does not say
he has very bad accent and should not
have been appointed. Respectfully
yours, INQUISITIVE CITIZEN.
