When the State establishes the per-
manent water front or harbor line for
one of its municipalities and authorizes
the sale of lands lying between such line
and the uplands. it is a legislative dec
laration that these lands may pass into
private ownership without interference
with the public rights of navigation and
fishery. They may then be reclaimed
from The waters by their owners and de-
voted to any one Of the infinity of uses
to which uplands are put. or, if suitably
located. and there being no restriction
in the grant. they may, under legal
sanction. be covered with wharves,
docks and like structures. But it is
the owners Of land abutting upon the
water front line who. under legal sane
ton. may thus build into the deeper
public waters beyond. The owners Of
the inner water lots do not enjoy this
right by virtue Of their ho.ding more
than do the owners Of the uplands.
Their right of access to navigable wa
ters or to the uplands is by the streets.
and this right they enjoy with the
whole public.
Where legislative authority exists If
is not to be questioned that the streets
themselves may be converted into pub
lie wharves or such structures may be
built along them or at their terminal
And this use is no invasion of the rights

THE HAG FISH.

In the waters of the Pacific
Ocean, and it may be in other wa
tiers. there exists a fish called the
bag fish, which has it peculiar
habit of inserting itself into the
gills and thence into the stomach
of other fish, sometimes a hun
dred times larger than itself, and
then commencing its long meal
it feeds upon the body of its vic
tim. until it has completely de-
voured it, and nothing remains
but an empty skin floating on the
surface of the sea.
This piscatorial assassin family
pictures the terribleness and ia
tally of "a bad habit. Creeping
along unawares into the heart
and life of its victim. it eats out
all his manliness and goodness.
and, after utterly destroying, not
only his reputation but his char
acter, leaves him to float about
on the surface of the sea of life
a mere shell of a mana faint
resent lance of human being.

DEFENDS YALE.
Student Objects to- College Being
Called Mother Yale

EDITOR ADVERTISER:-Sir AS
one of the unfortunate race of Yale
students l desire 10 present through
your columns a little information
bearing upon remarks recently made
by "Sybil." But first let me request Of
Sybil not to talk about Mother Yale"
IL would make our good old Saint Eli
hu rise from his grave if he should
know that out in the Pacific he was
solemnly described as ''motherly" and
'matTonIy." In the second place, let
ME suggest to Sybil that, being In
perfect ignorance of matters Yalen-
sian, an ignorance which she unwit-
tingly made manifest by ascribing to
us a feminine patron saint, she is
hardly qualified to discuss our alleged
brutality and "hoodlumism." Sybil,
for goodness sake, don't accept for
gospel the absolute words of news
papers. Don't you know how much
political capital for the silver people
there was in this episode? AS mat
ter of fact, confidentially. being one Of
the hoodlums present, / can assure you,
Sybil, that not a newspaper in all the
United States told the truth. There
was nothing whatever preconcerted.
A large part OF the disturbance was
made by town "muckers, some of
whom, after the manner of these peo-
pie. tried 70 pass as college men. Bry-
an kept us there in the hot sun, in
pushing malodorouS crowd, an hour
beyond the time set. Naturally the
crowd. students and all, were unaml
able He did not receive a cordial re-
ceptiOn, but soon had a full opportuni-
ty to speak. This was the chance for
real orator, for we are not a hard
crowd TO Jolly up" But Bryan pro-
ceeded with sneers 10 talk of the ill
gotten gains of our fathers" on the
proceeds of which we were being edu-
Gated. We expected and hoped TO hear
arguments | noted we were told of
gigantic conspiracies against mankind
and other equally egregious nonsense.
Those who speak successfully to col
lege men know that il is unwise to lay
themselves open to ridicule. Bryan,
perhaps, cut even a more ridiculous
figure than a third rate actor who
tried to present to us Antony" Both
in the vernacular were ''horsed" I'M
And yet he was not, as the papers
say, choked off. Sybil may find the
whole incendiary address printed in
But Sybil wishes to reform us by
the introduction into our wild haunts
OF woman, lovely woman Syb.l
has. l fear, been reading the Heavenly
Twins But do not let yourself be
misinformed, Sybil. We have "co-eds."
True, connoisseurs in these matters say
they are not the most attractive of
their species. Yet / have no doubt IA
penetrative intellect, like Sarah
could detect very appreci-
able influx of sweetness and light, a
softening of the savageness of our
ways. In conclusion let me beg of
Sybil to see these things for himself.
A little knowledge if not always a dan
gerous is certainly an uncomfortable
possession. YALE.

Perhaps the most extraordinary
custom in connection with restaurant
life is that which obtains in a certain
little cafe in the suburbs of Paris,
where every customer whose bill
amounts to two francs (about thirty.
eight cents) or over that sum is eu-
title d to kiss from the very attractive
young lady who acts cashier to the
establishment. So used has the dam
sci become to the customary routine
that she goes through it without the

restaurant is more than satisfied with
his curious device tor attracting pa

He, on various occasions, denounced

music in hall fell upon his ear, and
the sound of gay young society PEG

at once entered the hall and, winding
his way through the merry young
couples on the floor to the center of
the ballroom, he startled all present
by the command, "Let's pray"
The reverend gentleman at once
began aud prayed fervently for fully
ten minutes. At first but few knelt,
but before the end Cf five minutes

No, madam, your child is not bit
prettier or sweeter than thousands
now living, and millions that are now
dead. 1t may be very respectable

but being your darling does not by
any means make it of any more i'm
portance than if it were the offspring
of some one else. While we as news.
paper men have perhaps been com.
PEELED TO lie thousands of times in
reference to the good Of the departed,
and have had to do violence to our
conscience in writing up the beauties
OF the bride and the worth of the
groom, yet we have never yet said to
any enc found mother that her baby
was the sweetest, prettiest AMI smart.
est that we ever saw We can't do
this, for we remember that we were
once babe ourself, and that some
one perhaps was as honest in refer
ence to our looks and appearances as
we propose to be toward yours.
Babies may DE interesting, and they
are sometimes, especially when they
keep the neighborhood awake at
night by their yells. Yes, madam,
your baby does very we'll, but the
world is full of babies that are Just as
pretty, just as sweet and that will
perhaps outstrip yours in the race oil
life to come. The baby is all right
but what are you going to make out
of it, How are you going to raise il
Are you going to train it, il girl, to

knowledge Of the rights of others
Or If boy, is he to be taught to be
man, or will he be a dwelling idiot
whose ambition will be TO suck a Gig

is all right if it is not afterward

c-,as 20 Their sorrow.
OF all the bunco games that have
been worked of in tbs city pone hai
ever equalled the game played on Q
crowd Of travelling men at the Tenth
street Union Station yesterday
morning. Chief Of Detectives Hanger
and his men are now at wo.k on the
case.
The actors in the game are two peo-
pie who are said 10 he man and wife
The game is operated through the
woman, who appears in the guise of a
Salvation Army lassie.
About 10 o'clock yesterday morning
just before the train was about to pull
out for Nashville, crowd of travel
ing men were standing 10 the corridor
Of the depot. On one of the seats
modestly sat little young woman
She was dressed in the uniform of
the Salvation Army. She appeared
be only about the age of is. Her
face was sweetlooking and her ap
pearance betokened nothing but sim
cerity. Her presence attracted every
one.in the depot. Finally the topic
OF discussion with the crowd of drum
mers was directed to the little woman.
They began passing remarks on the
woman's beauty. During the con-
yersation stranger broke into the
crowd. He was well dressed and
carried travelling bag. He, too,began
talking about the Salvation Army
lassie. Presently one man in the crowd
jokingly remarked that he would like
to kiss her just for the experience.
The stranger then spoke up. and said
for $40 he would kiss the woman and
stand all the results. Before he had
hardly gotten the words out of his
mouth $50 was flashed in his face,
and he was dared to do it, The
money was placed in hands of one
of the drummers, and then the stran
ger nerved himself up for the ordeal,
He walked over to the little woman,
enchcled her with his arms, and
quickly snatched kiss.
To the surprise of the crowo of
pc jple, the little woman
seemed to enjoy the kiss, and only |
smiled, The stranger walked back |
and collected his $50, and, then, walk
ing back 10 the Salvation Army lassie |
he caught her by the arm, and the
two walked out Of the station, laugh
ing at the game that was on the
crowd of drummers. Seeing that
they had been buncoed, an officer was
Immediately notified. He made a
search for the people, and finally told
Capt. Hanger of the case.
Capt. Hanger had received word
several days ago from Chicago asking
him to watch out for this pair. They |
are said to be pair of professionals,
who are working their game all
through the country. The mans
name is Walter Redmond, and the
woman is said to be his wife. Fed
mond is noted bunco sharp. The
police claim that theirs was the
smoothest and most novel game ever
worked off in Lodisvile.-The Dis
patch.
