r HERE is another phase of the question
worth full study. and that is the mark
ed change observable in the cured

The saloon-keeper prefers to assume that
the boisterous, generous" bellcose chat
terer; the babbler of secrets and silly boast
err who seeks inspiration at his bar is
the normal healthy minded individual.
When he sees the Kelley graduate well
dressed, clean-shaven and brushed, clear
minded, modest, gentlemanly and inoffen-
sive, unobtrusively going his way, and par
ticulary going a way that avoids the sa-
looms and other dens of vice. the mixer of
tipples and muddler of brains does not wish
to believe that his former victim is in his
right mind. "He is a half-fool," he says.
But if the graduate has escaped from the
scorching to which he has subjected his
cerebral substance through probably five
ten. thirty years of swallowing liquor and
fire. he will congratulate himself that
though In dram drinking circles he may
be considered "half-fool." in his heart he
is glad that he is not full fool" in both
senses of the term, and from hundreds of
thousands of grateful breasts of such re-
covered patients. in addition to the self
congratulation that neither half nor full
folly is longer theirs, has gone forth the
sincere, unreserved, heartily felt and ex-
pressed, God forever bless DIR. Kelley"

resulting in an enormously increased
use of American copper. The increase
in our copper exports this year over

council which will not only tighten their
burdens but lessen the distance their
employees have to walk.
Under the specifications Of the pres
ent contract it appears that it is unlaw-
full to place garbage tins and refuse bar
rels upon the sidewalk or indeed less
than thirty feet from the sidewalk. 1t is
also provided that garbage must not be
placed more than sixty feet from the
sidewalk, with the obvious object that 1t
be kept in the rear of the premises, out
of sight and smelling distance, and that
the garbage collectors be compelled to
go to the back of houses, carry it away
and empty it in their wagons. But the
employees of the garbage contractors
have either dislike for so much walk
ing and porterage or else the contractors
employ so few men that it is impossible
to comply with the law and at the same
time get through the work allotted to
them.
1t is safe to say that only small per-
centage of householders know the exist
ence of these specifications in the con-
tract and still fewer have had the cour-
age and insistence to see that the terms
were carried out.
What housewife has not felt the terror
of the tyrannical. offensive and unreas-
enable bearing Of many of the garbage
collectors? They have given her clearly
to understand that the garbage tins
must be on the sidewalk directly in
front of the house, or the refuse will not
be taken away, and she has become ter
rorized by those offal Dogberrys In
many cases they have refused to empty
barrels because they were too heavy for
their gentle muscles. although the
housewife had managed to get them to
the sidewalk; in others they have found
fault with the constituent parts of the
garbage. have discovered tomato can,
which had no business to be in the bar
rel, or sample copies of the Times and

lawn. All this in direct defiance of the
law which compels the collectors to go
to the back yard and gather the garbage.
So successful has been the reign of
dictation and terror that these fellows
have instituted that in the early morn
ing the beautiful streets of Los Angeles
present a hideous and offensive trim
ming. Lines of all manner of garbage
tins and barrels defile the sidewalks, a
standing and stinking disgrace to the
fair fame and sanitary reputation of our
city. What a pleasant sight for the
tourist and the visitor in search of pure
air to gaze upon; what a delightful
blending with the scent of the fruit and
flowers for him to enjoy.
And It is this system that the garbage
contractors seek to legalize tomorrow.
Our city fathers will do we'll to unani-
mously discard the proposition, and
make the ordinance still palmer, ard or
der that 1t be a msdemeanor to place
garbage of any sort in any kind of recep-
tacle upon the sidewalks.

KENYON ON THE KOKOsING
(By VIII S. Creighton)
Hail Kenyon. deep-walled, foresight!
Embowered in green. or seiged with snow,
About thy walls and through thy halls,
With Echo, dwells Voice that calls
Where memory loves to go.
Old Kenyon. time-worn, ivy-clad,
Serene, thou sittest on thy hill
Around whose base with winsome grace
The Indian naiad of the place,
kokosing. glideth still.
The legion boys who loved thy name?
Who were thine own, but now are flown,
successful some, some overthrown,
While some are known to Fame?
Mater" Of all, did'st love as well
Thy roysterers as thy sober men?
What jokes they sprung, what songs they
sung,
What "Bomshells" burst what bells they
rung-
Dost all come back again?
I prthee say. dost thou recall
Our Saturday and Wednesday nights?
Our oyster stews. night-shirt reviews.
Our war-dance, which none might refuse
And hard-fought pillow-fghts!
Ha! tell me not thou hast forgot
What time the sleep Of Still night"
The Baby broke. with tt&Inder stroke.
And panic-stricken freshmen woke
TO soar In sore alright!
Remember! All, "stone walls have ears &"
Perchance a heart In walls so thick
Which loves its own. like faithful stone
That bides when Time has overthrow
All transitory brick.
Farewell! Abide old Kenyon Hail.
In memories lapt upon thy hill!
While round the steep. trro' vistas deep
The. indian naiad plays bo-peep
And smAes. but glideth still.

BENJAMIN WILLIAMSON.

BENJAMIN WILLIAMSON, died near Pleas
ant Hill. Ripley county, Ind. August sist, 1896.
He died with complication of troubles. super
induced by old age.
He was born at Newark, New Jersey, Feb 4,
1902 and was, at the time of his death. Sugars,
months and 81 days old. He FIRST set foot on
Indiana soil in 1923, but did not permanently
locate in Ripley county until 1888, where he has
continuously resided until his death. He was
united in marriage to Miss Joice P. Burrough,
May 80 $780, To that union were born II chill
dren-6 daughters and five sensitive Of whom
have preceded him to the spirit world and six
survive him, three sons and three daughters.
The greatest trouble of his life was experienced
five years ago. when his beloved wife was
snatched from him by the hand of death and he
was left alone In the world to mourn her de-
parture.
He never identified himself with any church,
until a few months previous to his decease He
sentfor Rev. Mr.. Lathe. a Universalist minister,
and requested him to enroll his name in the
church register. which he did. and he became
member of the Universalist church. And not
withstandng, he held aloOf from an alliance
with the church until he was four score and
seven years old, he had been for number Of
years firm and uncompromising believer In
the universal redemption of the human family.
and in that faith he died.
After enjoying an intimate acquaintance with
him for more than three decades and having
had an excellent opportunity of knowing his
character. the writer has no hesitancy in saying
he has never known more unselash. incor-
ruptible man.
The esteem in which he was held by the COM
munity. was artested by the large assemblage of
people, who gathered at the Pleasant Hill
cemetery to pay the last tribute of respect to
the honored dead. The funeral services were
deferred until future date owing to a failure
to secure the services of the minister of his
choice.

There are fads In medicine as in everything

short time simply because it is new. But in
medicine, as In nothing elss, the people de-
mand and will be satisfied only with positive
absolute merit. The fact that Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla has stood Its ground against all competi
ton. and its sales have never wavered but have
remained steadily at the top. demonstrates. be-
yond any doubt, the intrinsic virtues of this
medicine. The new things have come and gone
but Hoods Sarspariila rests upon the sol
foundation of absolute merit and its power to
cure. and its sales continue to be the largest in
the world.

A GLIMPSE OF THACKERAY.

The lady whose proud yet gentle ma
inspired Thackeray in drawing Ethel
Newcome was also the model for the
novelist's picture of Blanche Amory, in
the costume wherein she went to her
first ball. She is nowadays plump
matron, but to Thackeray's daughter,
Mrs. Ritchie, she remains Dads Ethel"
Some "reminiscences of the novelist land
of other interesting people, she impart-
ed the other day to an interviewer for
BLACK and White" beginning her talk
with the warm hearted assertion that
Thackeray twas the best and kindest of
men,"
"People talk of him as cynic and all
that" she said. cat least he never
showed anything of the kind in his own
home, and surely the man is best seen
among the people with whom he is con-
tinually associated. There was nothing
liked SO much as dining at his house in
the old Onslow square days. But the
prettiest tale have to tell you is OF later
days, when the house was at Kensington.
Thackeray was always passionately fond
of children and they regarded him no
less affectionately. Once upon time,
when my eldest daughter was some.
where between and 3, Thackeray asked
me to come TO luncheon and to bring
her. The mere meal was delightful
When it was over the master of the
house disappeared, taking the child with
him.
Mrs. Richie and 1 went upstairs to
his study and amused ourselves, and so
a considerable time passed. Then a
servant came and told us that somebody
royal was below, having come to see
Thackeray. He had to be found. and in
the end we ran him to earth in the gar
den. You should have seen the spectacle!
