The Newspaper Man and the Crowd.

Adapted from Hsop:
A Newspaper Man. who watched the
people "a they went Ia and fro III the
village streets. attracted the villagers
to the center of the town ON divers
occasions bv CRYING out IN Crowd, IA
Crowd" when iurSooth, there was no
Crowd, but merely hall full assembled
to hear free silver speech, and the
people laughed at him for his cries.
The Crowd, however, did truly come at
last and the people marveled at the
size thereof, aud republican enthusiasm
was great Then the Newspaper Man
attempted to deceive the people and
said, there is no Crowd but the
thousands bore witness To his ialsehood,
and no one paid any heed To his cries.
There is no believing liar, even
should he speak the truth.

Ladies, we beg to call your attention
to our French tailor method of dress
cutting. 1t is absolutely the latest and
best now in use. We take but three
measures and guarantee a perfect fit.
Can be learned in few lessons, is sim
pie and accurate, easy to learn and i'm.
possible to forget. We have just what
the people have been wanting for years,
viz: method that is simple, accurate
and cheap. We urge the necessity of
every lady learning to cut her own
dresses, regardless of present condi-
tions. We claim it an accomplishment.
We will demonstrate the merits of our
method by cutting test Innings free of
charge. Seamless waists a speciality.
We would kindly invite you to investi-
gate the merits of our method at my

The Catholic Controversy.

A New York newspaper says: Accord
ing to a private dispatch received here
Cardinal Gibbons as well as Archbishop
Ireland has incurred the displeasure of
Rome. How the cardinal will be disciplined
is not definitely known, although it is be-
lieved that, being a cardinal, he will not
be removed from his seat"
This is another incident in the stirring
up that is being given the church in this
country, succeeding Cardinal Satollrs re-
turn to Rome. The removal of Bishop
Keane from the rectorship of the Catholic
University at Washington. the impending
reorganization of the faculty Of the uni
versity, and other recent occurrences in
church circles, are all details connected
with the same movement. "A prominent
Catholic of Baltimore said the other day
that there was danger of 1.-The lighting of
such a fire in the church as could hardly
be quenched," and also that the discon-
tent that would follow certain hypotheh-
cal action of Rome would shake the
Catholic church in America to its very
foundations"
The full import of this can hardly be
comprehended by layman. Indeed to the
observer from a distance there is a good
deal of mystery with regard to the merits
Of the controversy. 1t appears that there
is struggle going on to control the Amer
lean hierarchy and the American priest
hood. Two parties are engaged in the
| struggle. on the one side is the American
party, at the head OF which stands Arch
| bishop Ireland of st. Paul. MINI On the
other is a party of Italian. French and
| French Canadian priests. The desire Of the
| American party is to make the church fleX-
\ ible, and to fit it to the conditions which
surround 1t. Evidence of this is to be found
in the views expressed by American
priests on the school question. The desire
Of the other party is to hold the church in
flexible: to permit of no changes being
made.
Cardinal satolli is OF the anti-American
party. He has recently made a report to
the pope. 1t is thought that one effect of
that report will be the summoning of
| Archbishop Ireland to Rome to answer
charges against him. and that another
may be the disciplining of Cardinal Glib
bons. In Catholic circles in Baltimore the
belief obtains that the summoning Of
| Archbishop ireland to Rome would pre-
| cipitate matters 1t is doubted that he
| would obey such q summons

Protection Cor the ,Possum.

! Native bards for ages have tuned their
banjoes and sung the praises of the pos
/ sum- But it has remained for Representa-
/ tive McCook of Chattahoochee to raise
his voice for the protection as well as in
| praise of the 'possum He insists that
Georgia shall take the 'possum into her
arms, so to speak, and give it chance
| against its enemies. The quail, the snipe,
the deer are ali the objects of tender So
lictude by Mother Georgia; yet not one Of
these, in point of excellence from the
gourmets standpoint, are to be mentioned
in the same breath with the delectable
'possum. Nevertheless, the unassuming,
even bashful, 'possum is left to the tender
mercies of whomsoever may go out to
seek and devour him.
The 'pOssum has been referred to as the
poor mans pig. He is more than that; he
is also the hunters pleasure and the rich
mans delight 1t used to be said of the
late Ward McAllister, leader of the Four
Hundred. that he was never so happy
so utterly at peace with himself and all
the world-as when seated before a dish
containing well Drowned 'possum trim
med around with sweet potatoes
and garnished with sprig of something
green. He pronounced it a dish fit for
any condition of man, from the herder
in the fields to the king in his castle. And
there is nobody who will have the temer-
ity to assert that Mr. McAllister did not
know what he was talking about
Representative McCook of Chattahoo-
chez is authority for the statement that
if something is not done for the 'possum,
and before long. his kind viii follow the
American buffalo and the dodo into per-
petual retirement; that the species will
become extinct. Horrible possibility!
What native of Georgia would be able to
look upon life as even approaching COM
pleteness if there were no more 'possums?
What coloEed citizen would not pull up
stakes Immediately and sail for Liberia,
preferring to risk the dangers of jungle
fever than to endure a 'possumless life in
Georgia?
Mr.. McCook is right. We want pos
sum protection; we need it in the pos
sum infant industry, Under present
conditions the animals are slaughtered all
the year round. In the summer the
mamma 'possums are bringing up fami-
lies. But the ruthless hunters spare not
the 'possum even in young motherhood.
to the destruction of offspring as well
as parent. The gentleman from the Chat
tahoochee wishes the season for 'possum
hunting limited from March l to Oct. l.
And he is right We want in Georgia
full supply of possums They should be
permitted to thrive and fatten for seven
months of the year, in order that pos
sum-loving mankind may feast the other
five months without the haunting fear
that the supply will presently run out.

The Retired burglar.

Contrary to my usual CUSTOM" said the
retired burglar, according to the New
York Sun. Il went one night in a house
that I had called at straight up stairs,
and explored the rooms on the second
floor, with fair results. On the way down.
just as reached the head of the stairs,
/ saw in the hall below funnel-shaped
beam of light that could come only from
one source, a dark lantern. The man
holding the lantern stood in a doorway
that opened from the parlor into the hall
another burglar. He had thrown the
beam into the hal1 at the foot Of the
stairs I knew 1t would come up a mo-
ment later. 1 set my bag down back of
me on the floor and my hat beside it, and
when it did come 1 appeared in the light
the man of the house standing there
waiting for the burglar with pistol
HE stood perfectly still. He had his
lamp in one hand and his bag in tie
other, and he knew I had him dead.
My friend said /, I've got a sick
wife and I don't want a row. I'm will
ing you should go if you'll go quiet
There's the door right in front of YOU
Why he says, cool as could be, =
wouldn't disturb the lady for anything,
and he steps over to the front door easy,
unlocks it, and goes out and shuts the
door behind him. and l heard him go down
the steps and down the path and off.
When I got down stairs I found ne d
cleaned up things there while I'd been
together in a cloth on the dining table
ready to carry off. All 1 had to do was
to take EN- away.
1T seemed kind o. mean to take adj
vantage of his labor in that way, after
driving him off. but what could do?"

She Had Her smoke.

She was a little old woman dressed in
black, and having bundle wrapped up in
a gray shawl. She had seat in the mid
die of a Grand River avenue car, and as
she took out her clay pipe and began feel
ing for her tobacco the conductor stepped
forward and said:
You mustn't smoke here, ma am"
''Why not?'
Against the rules"
"Who made the rules?'
''The company"
"Where's the company"

''Well, never allow nobody mile away
to tell me when / shall or shall not smoke.
I've got neuralgy and when l have 1t I
allus smoke. You kin trot right back to
the platform and be ready to jingle the
bell when anybody wants to get Off!
And she found match, lighted 1t on the
under edge of a seat and pulled away
with a serene countenance until ready to
get off at Twelfth street.
