CHEWED HIS WHISPERS.
Hungry Goats Deceived by Neigh
boris Heard,

Justice OF the Peace Hubschmitt OF Pater
son, n. Y, decided case involving the righ
of man to wear whiskers in the presence
of a goat. The whskers discussed before
the magistrate were owned by James Suy.
dam, farmer in Little Falls township. They
are long and flowing and silyery white, fol
Suydam is past middle age.
The goats-twO OF them-that figure in the
case are the property OF Mrs. Annie Nc
Laughlin, who lives near the Paterson city
line, The farmer was walking along the
highway ono morning last week when Mrs
McLaughlin's goats espied him. They fol-
but in vain. Mrs. Mclaughlin went after
her pets She was eXasperated when they
refused to return at her bidding.
You have no business wearing them
things" she said pointing to Suydam 5
whiskers why don't you take them off
The goats think its hay"
Suydam did not like her talk. He made
a complaint before Justice Hubschmitt,
charging Mrs. Mclaughlin with disorderly
conduct Lawyer Richard Randall summed
up the case for Mrs Mclaughlin.
1T has been shown" he said, addressing
the magistrate. that this man passed the
house before tho goats had breakfast. They
saw him coming and looked up ntelligently
at him. How could they resist such a bunch
as that? Just look at the inducement. If |
were a goat the first thing l would do would
be TO go for those whiskers. We find by de-
cisions in Massachusetts,, Oklahoma and
Kalamazoo that when an animal pursues
such a thing as that and there is no evidence
of vicousness it merely acted with bad judg-
meEt.
This man has no right to appear in the
public highway with such a show OF whs-
kers. 1t is a violation of the sumptuary
laws | quote from Coke upon Littletown to
show that a man has no right to induce a
dumb animal to follow him by wearing such
whiskers."
Justice Hubschmitt agreed with Lawyer
Randall and before acqutting Mrs. Nc
Laughlin gravely told the farmer he had vio-
lated the law. Suydamawas Lot represented
by counsel. But he declared he would en-
gage a lawyer and have the case appealed.
He spent much on the law rather than
remove his whiskers

CHICAGO's NEW LIBR AIRY.

Among the events of the new year in Chi

cided upon but every effort is being made
to get the books in readiness for the pub.

The library is to be on the sixth floor oi
the new Marshall Field building. says the
Chicago Tribune. This entire floor has been
remodoed and fitted up with all appropriate
library furniture and appurtcnanCeS.
lease has been taken for five years, as
II is deemed not improbable that on the eX-
piratinn Of the lease the John Crerar library
may have building OF its own. The com
mittee on building consists of John NJ. Clark
Henry w Bishop and Robert T. Lincoln, all
of whom are known to be in favor of con
structing a new building If II shall seem
advisable later on. Meanwhile the library is
to be located where light and air will be
plentiful and where the books will be easy
of access.
HUNTINGTON W. Jackson. one OF the execu-
tors OF the Crerar will said that it was the
desire OF the executors 20 organize library
that should be entirely creditable to the
founder and to the city of Chicago. For
that reason he said they had not been max
ing haste in their preparations.
4 Clement w Andrews. the librarian. who
was formerly a professor in the Massachu-
sets Institute OF Technology. is now in
Chicago, and is experimenting the classified
ton OF the new library. He has about a
dozen assistants working with him, and this
force will be increased as the books come
in and as the preparations for the opening
progress.
Mr.. Andrews has been in the east for
several months during the last year making
collections OF books among publishers and
from other libraries in discontinued depart
ments. Norman Williams one OF the eX-
ecutons under the Crerar will. is now in
Boston negotiating for library material.
Incidental to Mr. Williams eastern trip
1t will be interesting TO Chicagoans to know
that another object Of his visit there is TO
consult the Society of American Sculptors
in regard to the Lincoln monument. which
was also provided for in John Crerar's will.
Mr. Jackson, enc OF his fellow executors
said that no site has been taken under con-
sideratiOn yet for the proposed monument,
as that must depend somewhat upon the
style OF memorial that may be decided
upon 1t is probable that the leading sculp-
tors OF America will soon be invited to sub
NIT designs from which selection will be
made.

PARIS. Nov 26--Thc Bureaux OF the
Chamber Of Deputies today ELECTED COM
mittee to examine the bill providing for a
renewal Of the privileges OF the Bank OF
France. The committee Is understood to be
favorable to the measure
At the meeting Of the Chamber OF Dep
uties today there was a large attendance
on the resumption OF the debate on the
school system. the government having mar
rowly escaped defeat yesterday in resisting
tho demands of The radicals for the imme
date installation OF female lay teachers In
the $500 elementary schools, which are
still in the hands OF the Sisters OF Charity,
Sisters OF the Poor. etc. instead OF waiting
till the sisters resign or die This action
was on the point OF being carried ycster-
day, when VI. Krantz. the reporter OF the
budget committee, saved the government
from defeat by insisting that the resolution
must first be submitted to his committee,
as II involves a large increase In eNpendi-
lures. On the resumption of the school
debate today VI. Jourdan demanded that
the government take steps to secularize
all girls schools within two years, but VI.
Krantz opposed the motion and the pre-
mier, VI. Meline, declared that the PROPOSE
ton was impracticable and merely a ma
neuver against the government. which would
ask the Chamber to reject 1t.
NJ Goblet asked the government to fix a
date for the secuarzation of the schools,
whereupon NJ Meline retorted that NJ. Cob
let was amiss when he estimated that the
complete secularizaton Of the schools would
take twenty years. The debate closed with
a motion fixing upon a term OF two years for
the secularzation of the schools. This was
opposed by NJ. Meine and was eventually
rejected by vote of 1926 to 237.

City Engineer Tostcyip bothered by
New Method of Assessing.


New Method of Assessing.
City Engineer Tostevin put in the greater
portion of his time yesterday in his Office
in the city building, returning earnest
thanks to the city council for the change
in the methods of assessing the cost OF
public improvements to the abutting
property on the streets improved. He has
been engaged in making the maps, sched-
ules and plats required by the new
law, using all Of his spare time for
the past six weeks He worked the greater
part OF the day yesterday and until after
8 o'clock each evening during the week on
the South First street schedules, and the
work is still incomplete.
The extra work is demanded by the
change in methods Of assessing caused
by the ordinance adopted last year for
the purpose of relieving the city OF all
direct liability for grading, curbing, paving
and sewering the streets. Heretofore pay
ment for this work has been made by the
city issuing bonds and guaranteeing their
payment. These bonds have stood as a
debt against the city, while in reality they
simply represented the debt OF the property
benefited and the city only assumed the
obligation OF collecting the special assess
ments. On May 6 OF last year an ordinance
was adopted in the city council providing
for the issuance OF certificates against the
property. This ordinance was subsequently
strengthened by the adoption Of several
others, the council following the same gem
eral plan adopted by Des Moines and other
Iowa cities The ordinances were adopted
in accordance with provisions OF charter
laws passed by the legislature. While
the new method does not weaken in the
least the commercial value of the special
assessment certificates. it relieves the city
OF an apparent obligation that shows disad-
vantageously in the debt statements
In addition to this apparent benefit the
new method makes a material saving to
the taxpayers by removing the necessity for
a lot OF expensive publications in the news
papers required to make the bonds legal.
But while II saves the taxpayers some
money, 1t adds a great deal to the work
in the offices OF the city engineer and city
clerk. While only a small amount OF paw
ing or sewering Is done at time, the in
crease is not great enough to require extra
help. but II a large number of streets were
in progress of improvement the work on the
maps and schedules would be greater than
the present force could take care OF. As
an illustration OF the difference between the
old method and the new IL can be shown
that the repaving OF Pearl and South First
streets involved more work in the offices Of
the engineer and clerk than all OF the paw
ing done in any one year when the city was
suffering from the cedar block insanity.
But, notwithstanding all this, the new
plan is highly commended by every official
about the city building. II will enable the
city to repaye all of the cedar block streets
without increasing the apparent indebted
ness to the extent OF a dollar. The GER
tiacates become a lien against the property
benefited and the city only acts as an agent
for the collection of the sDecial assessments

Richard Badly, a stockman OF Silver City,
who is reputed to be worth over $50 900.
got into a serious difficulty late Wednesday
night that will cost him some money and
trouble Badly bought a bunch OF feeding
cattle in the South Omaha market Wednes-
day and drove them to this city during the
evening. When he came to the motor
bridge he informed the toll man that there
were only eighty-one head Of cattle in the
bunch. The toll man was something Of a
guesser himself and asserted his belief that
there were over 100, and proceeded to count
them. Badly objected to this, and offered
to pay for eighty-one. The offer was de-
clined and Badly and his men stampeded the
stock and sent them over the bridge without
paying a cent. Superintendent Dimmock
was notified by telephone and with the
assistance Of a number of Council Bluffs
officers succeeded in corralling the cattle on
Lower Broadway. Badly still refused to pay
and was very abusive. The cattle were
driven to the yards Of a feed barn and
counted. The count showed there were 40
head. An information was filed at mid
night and a warrant was issued for the
arrest OF Badly. He could not be found after
the cattle were taken possession Of During
the day yesterday an agent representing him
appeared at the barn and paid the toll and
the costs Of keeping the cattle over night
Badly will be arrested and prosecuted He
was not to be found at Silver City yesterday
