THE RIGHT TO sN0RE.

Of course man has no moral right snore? Is it lawful for man to keep his dear wife and children awake all night by snortings and groantngs that can be and are uttered? Is it lawful for a man to keep all the occupants of a sleeping car awake while he blows his nasal bugle, trombone or tuba? In short, can man lawfully make snor- ing nuisance of himself? A court in New Jersey, a State which has become celebrated for it's justice, seems to think that there is no law which stands in the way of such a performance. The offender in the case is a snorer of un- usual scope and power, and it is i'm possible to sleep anywhere near him while he is sleeping. His neighbors asked him to snore smaller, but he laughed at them. He said he didn't know he snored, he couldn't help it if he did and he wasn't going to lie awake to see if he snored and to try to stop snoring. So the offended and exasper- ated ones brought him into court and charged him with breaking their peace and their rest The judge looked wise and was as wise as he could be, but he was obliged to confess that he had no wisdom and no law that would fit the case So he discharged the snorer, af- ter 'impressively admonishing him that he must be more considerate in his snoring.
 This failure of law will perhaps not greatly add to the prevalence of the snoring nuisance, but it will tend to make the snorers less sensitive to pub lie and private opinion. And it will enable lovely and snoring Woman to silence protesting Man by asserting that she has as much right as Man to snore, and that it is not against the law to snore.

NOTSE IS PITRIOYISlY.

The Fourth of July is coming. It will be here next Saturday, and with it will come noise and fire enough to satisfy even the patriotic Register. But it has been perceived by the mayor that there is a possibility that there will be too much noise and fire. So he has issued an order directing the superintendent of police to enforce the ordinances con- corning bonfires and fireworks "to such an extent that health life and property may be protected, and in manner consistent with a patriotic people in celebrating the approaching anniversa- " of our independence as a nation" Do not, he says, permit the explosion of any firearms or firecrackers upon the lower portion of the Old Green during the public exercises, or while the band concerts are in progress, or upon the line of march during the progress of any parade. And he also offers hope to invalids who will notify the police de- partment that they do not want to be shocked to death by explosions.
 This is a careful move, and while it may do some good it will probably not expose the mayor to the dreadful charge of being lacking in patriotism. But if anybody should be malicious olo I,o point them to what has happened in the patriotic capital of the country, where they are preparing for notable celebration of the Fourth and are also planning to diminish the noise and keep the exuberant youth under Jcon- trol by confning their racket to estab- lished reservations and prosecuting them if they fire guns, pistols or can non crackers on the street. And it is even argued in Washington that the compulsory education contained in this plan is a good thing and that century or so hence it may be that our de- scendants will realize that there is as much patriotic expression in the dis play of the Stars and Stripes as there can possibly be in all the ear-straining explosions of gunpowder that the in genuity of man can devise.
 It will probably be a long day before noise ceases to be patriotism. But the fact that it is now dimly perceived that noise may by and by not be patriotism will encourage some even if it does not encourage the patriotic Register.

EyEN IN MAsSACH usnrrs.


 That is a rather surprising and dis couraging bit of news that comes from Massachusetts. At St, Louis Q Massa- chusetts man, Senator Lodge, did tre- mendously efficient work for gold, and it was supposed that he spoke the sen tlment of both the Republicans and the Democrats of his State. But if Jeremiah T. O'Sullivan, who is a mem- Der of the Democratic State committee, and a delegate to the Chicago conVen- tion, knows what he is talking about, there is much more silver in the Demo- cratic delegation to Chicago than has been suspected. MT. Sullivan says: I intend to vote for silver platform and l shall not be alone in the Massachu setts delegation. As things look now, there will be six men on the delegation who will vote against the adoption of a gold plank. I have been in communi- cation with delegates all over New England, and unless the unit rule is adopted there will be a bad break in the New England delegation for a bi- metallic declaration. The Massachu- setts men who intend to vote for silver are lying low, fearing a repetition of the tactics adopted in 1892 to swing votes for Cleveland. There may be an attempt to adopt the unit rule in our delegation, and one of the objects of my trip to New York was to confer with some of the managers of the sil- yer movement over the course to be adopted in such an event, and as re- suit we have determined on course that will make it exceedingly interest ing to the gentlemen who may try to gag us with the adoption of a unit rule.
 This will make stir. MT. Sullivan adds that the Democratic star of em- pire is taking it's way westward this year and if the Democrats are wise men they will see no star in the East As they are not wise men the proba- bility is that they will see stars all around the sky when the voters hit them.

Friendship Among Animals.


 It is generally supposed that when wild animals of different kinds meet it is a natural instinct for them to rush at each other and fight till one of them has fallen. But there are great many cases where Platonic friendships exist between the fiercest beasts. They often do favors for one another in the most friendly spirit.
 The most picturesque of animal friendships exists between the buffalo and the flamingo. This curious pair have often been seen walking about to- gether the fianiingo, usually perched comfortably on the buffalo's back. The great test of any friendship is the extent one will go to perform a service for a friend. The good friendship ex- isting between buffalo and fiamingo bears such test very well. As the pair move about the flamingo carefully cleans the buffalos back and matted hair, picking from it's pores the tiny in- sects that annoy and pain it. Some times the bird unintentionally bites it's companion, but the buffalo never re- sents the accident.
 There is a curious breed of birds in the Island of Java which regularly pick the teeth of alligators. The teeth of an alligator are made to tear flesh, and it often happens that their inter stices become clogged up, annoying the saurian, and making it uncomfortable for him in many ways, and frequently preventing him in a measure from catching his prey or properly mastica- ting his food So he lies in the sun, opens wide his great jaws, while the birds do the rest. They act also as sentinels heralding the approach of a foe by pecking vigorously at the anil mal's tongue, upon which the alligator closes his mouth and makes for the water not infrequently killing few of his tiny friends in his haste.

ling's picturesque travesties of the wiles and the wooings of Mrs. Hauks- bee and the rest. Every one In North ern India knew who these ladies were; and the knowledge gave particular interest to the "Plain Tales from the Hills" As an instance of Simla "lo- cal color" I might note the one phrase of black and yellow wasps." All wasps are black and yellow--at least all English wasps are--but those who knew Simla when Kipling wrote of it would recollect that the social wasp" of Simla society, the original Mrs. Hauksbee," in fact, used to be conspic- uous at the dances at Viceregal Lodge for the magnificent costumes of black and yellow with which she draped her slimw waisted figure.

One of the noteworthy facts in the work of the Army and Navy depart ments is the careful attention that is given to the smallest details of the pri- yates equipment. Color, material, and even the manner of making, are regu- lated by rules that are strict in their application. An incident in point is the manner of mailing the heels of the shoes worn by the soldiers of the Army. Not long ago the War Department required that the heels of shoes should be nailed by hand, and any shoe that was other wise nailed was to be rejected by the officers having the matter in charge But now the opposite is the case, and shoes nailed by hand must be reject ed. A machine has recently been per fected which, as is quite usual with mechanical devices, does the work much better than hand labor can do it, and so the soldiers shoes receive by law the benefit of this improvement in small detail of manufacture.

FASHION NOTES.
Glitter Whose Fashionableness Has

Glitter Whose Fashionableness Has
 Dulled
 Spangled fabrics and trimmings are not in as great demand as they were but short time ago, and not few women are left with yards and yards of it, which, bought when we were all a-giint with such stuff, is now of little use. These trimmings went out in a blaze of glory, as we say of the fixed pieces of fireworks, but that affords little satisfaction to the owner of lot of it. The rightfuI successors to the sparkling trimmings are employed on the fancy bodice shown here, and will strike most everyone as an improve ment on their forerunners. The trou- ble with the sparkling stuff was that women whose taste was not well bal anced would come out too strong, their finery being characterized by almost barbaric splendor. This quickly killed all fashionableness for spangles, and

quieter styles now prevail. This bodice is of white chiffon lined with gold faille, hooks at the side and has a deep yoke in front composed of alternate stripes of lace insertion and narrow chiffon frills. Collar and belt are white satin, the sleeves are tight fit- ting and have two bell puffs of Louis XIV. lowered silk that are lined with white faille. Any skirt can be worn with such a bodice, but an all white, or black would be the best.
 It will be noticed that the puffs of these sleeves are in the nature of compromise. affording from a rear view an outline similar to the big puffs worn last season, but in front disclos- ing the arms outline almost to the shoulder. Women with fine arms will approve this substitute for the balloon puff and if they receive a wee bit of encouragement they'll soon dress their arms to look like those shown in ten year old photographs. Whatever de- vice the other women resort to to the end that their arms may be draped, they should not use stiffening.

A glass skate is the latest since a process has been discovered recently by which glass may be hardened to the consistency of steel The entire skate is made of this substance, the upper part resembling slipper, opened be- hind with split leather lace-up heel cap. Among the several advantages claimed for the new skates is that they are much faster than the steel blade and so slippery that they run almost equally well over rough as well as smooth ice. They are made very sharp and, owing to their extreme hardness, it is impos- sible to blunt them; furthermore, they need no grinding and they cannot rust. The crystal skates are nearly trans parent, although it will be possible to make them any color to match the skaters costume.

Lepers are not so uncommon in Europe as is generally thought. One was picked up in the Paris streets re- gently and sent to the St. Louis Hos pital, where there were already six other patients with the same disease. There are isolated cases dotted all over France, while the lepers hospitals at San Reno and in Spain and Portugal are never without patients. They are gaining ground in Turkey and the Ion- ian Islands. Crete has 800 of them. They are most numerous, however, in Norway, where there are 800, and are rapidly increasing in Sweden, which has already 462 In British India there are 100000 lepers. The disease infests Indo- China, Tonquin, China and Japan, as well as Hayti, Trinidad, Guiana, Venezuela, Brazil, and Paraguay.

One of the fa1sehoods put out
by the subsidized press, orators
and other agents OF the gold
lords, is thatit is the silver miner
who desires protection. The sill
yer miners and mine owners in
this country pay an unjust tax
yearly to the government of
twenty-five million dollars, while
the same law which discredits
silver compels the farmers to
contribute unjustly about four
hundred and fifty million dollars
to the eastern states and about
eight hundred million dollars to
the gold despots of Europe.

seems, are all right when it
comes to voting, but holding
office, oh, my, that is out of the
question. And why is it? Not
because they haven't the brains,
as the world owes all it's on
ward impulses to the working
masses. We must admit, how
ever, that the wire-pulling neces-
sary to get into office is not a
very creditable occupation for
an honorable union man but
until our official halls are filled
with men who believe in union
principles and have proven it by
past actions, just so long will
they be unable to correct existing
evils. You cannot expect to
