A sKUNK-RIDDEN BURG.
Woes Of Michigan Editor Feel
iugly Set Forth

The Village Council in its work of re-
form should turn its attention to
skunks, safely guarding itself against
retaliation on the part of the dodgast-
ed skunks. We would not have the
honorable municipal Government ex-
pose itself in the deadly breach nor
suffer vicariously for the sins of the
people over which Providence has
placed it; but if 1t could issue an ulti
matum against skunks, giving them
reasonable time to vacate the corporate
limits of Charlevoix, a suffering peo-
pie will rise up and call it blessed. A
drunken Indian can be kicked across
the bridge and driven into Hayes; but
it won't work with a skunk. You can
club almost anything but a skunk. You
can shoot the varnints, but in their
dying agony they wreak sweet re-
venge on their slayer. You cannot
drive them out from under the wood
shed or barn without precipitating
row that in odoriferous results rivals
a mass meeting.
If you set a trap for them you catch
the cat, or If, perchance, you catch the
skunk, then you catch-well-. They
meet you on the sidewalk as you walk
home at night, and look you squarely
in the face, and, if you are not UP in
natural history, you are sure to get
into trouble. They meander across
the lawn as you sit on the porch, and
if you are of an investigating turn of
mind, they get in their work on you,
and you spend the rest of the night
wishing you were dead, while the
skunk still lives with a skin full of re-
serve force and a tail that is as ef-
fective in battle as dynamite torpedo.
Why should they aff1ict a God-fearing
community? Perhaps they have hay
fever and are here for climatic reasons.
Whatever the cause is, it is fact that
Charlevoix is a favorite resort for
skunks, and they seem to be increasing
in proportion to our growth in grace.
Durn a skunk, anyway.~Charlevoix
Sentinel.

member European sovereign being
publicly charged by the ministerial.
press Of neighboring country with the
crime of murder, If not as the actual
perpetrator, at any rate as the iusti-
gator. The nearest approach thereto
was when the disreputable Servian
pretender, Karageorgevitch, was charg-
ed with the cowardly assassination of
Prince Milosh of Servia, the immediate
predecessor Of Milan on the throne of
that country.
1t is only now that the true circum-
stances which led to the murder of the
late Shah of Persia have become known
through the revelations of an Austrian
diplomat who represented his country
IN Teheran at the time Of the murder,
but who now is on the retired list. 1t
seems that the murder had nothing to
do either with religious fanaticism or
with revenge for the persecution to
which the Babbist sect had been sub
jected in Persia. It was mere case
OF private and personal vengeance.
Years ago the murderer, then a mer-
chant, had sold some valuable articles
to the third son of the late Shah, who
was Minister of War at the time. On
demanding his money he was thorwn
into prison, kept there seven years, mis-
pretty young wife, to whom he was
passionately attached, meanwhile be-
ing forcibly appropriated by the Prince.
After his release he fed to CONSTANT
nople, where he made the acquaint-
ance of the Afghan Sheik, Djemaled
Dim, who recently died in the Sultan's
palace. He obtained from him letters
of Introduction to personages in Persia
hostile to the Shah, returned in disguise
and killed the King Of Kings, crying as
he fired, "One must fell the tree that
bears bad fruit" thus making the ia
ther responsible for the deeds of his
son.-Marquise de Fontenoy in Chicago

BAD FOR THE BOYS.
An Indignity That the Girls AL
ways Escape.

The young hopeful had been silent
and thoughtful for some time, and it
was evident that there was some deep
problem that was troubling him.
Papa" he said at last, "ain't 1T true
that boys have all the worst of it?"
why, no. my boy. I don't think they
do" replied the father.
well, 1 do asserted the boy. "Ev-
cry girl I know says she wishes she
was a boy, but I'll bet she wouldn't If
she knew more about It. Why, things
are arranged lots better for them than
for boys"
"Oh, guess not, Willie" returned the
indulgent father, putting aside his pa
per and preparing to argue it out with
the youngster. L should say it was
about an even thing. AS a boy you
have some privileges that your sisters
do not, and they have some that you
do not You have more freedom than
they even now
the boy.
IF you do, you deserve it." returned
the father.
And when anything happens man.
ma always believes the story that the
girls tell instead of mine," persisted
the boy.
That may be so," returned the fa-
ther, thoughtfully. After a woman
marries she seems to sort of naturally
learn to doubt the whole masculine
sex. Still, you must remember, Willie,
that IN the way of play and general be-
havior you have all sorts of privileges
that your sisters do not, and these will
become greater as you grow up. That
counts for good deal, too"
But I have to wear Brother Johns
made-over pants" continued the boy.
And your little sister has to wear her
older sisters made-over dresses" said
the father, 80 that's just an even
thing"
Now, I've got you sure," cried the
boy. When / was baby / had to
wear made-over dresses, too. but there
never was a time that she had to wear
made-over pants. No, stree. 1t amt
an even thing at all Boys have all the
worst of it."
While he was thus soiiloquizing his
father made his escape without en-
deav orirg to argue his last proposition.
