tall youth with bangs and a monocle

have his comments easily overheard by
her. Lord Randy was close at hand,
too, and presently heard the vapid youth
remark:
"Deuced fine music, you know, but it
lacks veal soul-it lacks veal soul. "
To the critics establishment a mus
cular young man, with big mustache,
whom he had not noticed before, whis-

SEA ANEMONE AND BARNACLE.

An Odd Pair of Chums to BE Seen In the
Aquarium at Castle Garden.
The sea anemone is very sensitive.
It closes at hostile or thoughtless
touch, not rapidly, for it can't do any
thing very rapidly, but as rapidly as IL
can, curling its tentacles inward ana
covering them over with its outer skin
and tiattening it down upon the rock
But it is not disturbed by its friends.
In one of the smaller glass tanks at the
city's aquarium at Castle Garden there
are several little sea anemones taken
from spiles and stones about the Bat
terry. In the same tank, almost within
reach of these anemones, are some COM
mon bamacles-little ones, half an inch
or so in diameter. Lacking in beauty
as the barnacle may be, it is provided
with most wonderful handlike men,
Der, which it throws up from its shell,
with which it sweeps the water for
food, the minute animalcule upon
which it feeds.
One of these barnacles is SO close to
one of the little anemones that when he
filings his net it almost or quite touches
the tips of the anemone's tentacles,
which spread like the most delicate and
feathery branches of the tiniest little
tree. But the anemone doesn t close up.
Not a bit. Here down deep in the tank
its branches wave in the gently agitat-
ed water, as, delicate as they are, they
might do in the gentlest zephyrs on the
land, and they wave and wave as thu

Tn. Judges Decision.

Thomas W. Kerr. the unlicensed plumber,
was fined $40 before Judge kiInbail in the
police court this morning on the technical
charge of destroying public property on
New Hampshire avenue.
1t will be remembered that Mr.. Kerr, who
has been in the plumbing business for eight
cen years, was several months ago refused
a license from the Commissioners. under the
new license law.
Mr.. Kerr carried the matter into the courts.
Justice Hagner sustained the Commission
ers. The case was carried TO the court
of appeals.
In overriding the decision of the Commits
sioncrs and the lower court, Chief Justice
Alvey said that the need OF an education
in physics and chemistry sufficient to en-
able one to pass a technical dissemination was
not evident in the case OF 4 man who had
been n practical plumber for years.
Still, it was stated, while Mr.. Kerr was
permitted to continue the prosecution of
his craft, a license was not granted to him.
In a recent contract Mr.. Kerr was COM
PEELED to excavate in New Hampshire
avenue. He was arrested for doing so and
taken before Judge KimbaIl this morning,
where the case was argued at considerable
length. In deciding the case the court said:
II have but the one thing TO decide and
that is the right of plumber to tear up

necessary plumbers license. No one can
do it. The streets are public property, and
