The Ceramic Art Exhibit,

The display of hand-painted china
at st. Marys Parochial School, yester-
day was very pleasing one in every
respect. The work of instructing the
pupils in this branch of art work was
begun about October 1st, and there
fore the pupils have but less than
three months instruction, yet the
pieces on exhibition were all credit
ably done and many were works of art
Sister Bertrand came here in Septem-
ber to begin work and is conducting it
now as well as teaching music in the
school. The display was not a large
one, but five tables were tastily laden
with pieces of the delicate ware, rich
in coloring yet modest and attractive
in design.

Hobson, the Kisser.

Kansas City, Dec. 19.--During re-
ception given by Lieutenant Hobson
at the Coates house this afternoon all
his kissing records we're broken.
Four hundred and seventeen women
kissed or we're kissed by the young
naval constructor.
1t was carnival for the glddy, a
dream of delight for the splnsters,and
for The young man who Sent the col
lier to the bottom of Santiago harbor
well, 1t was popping, rafting,
smacking conflict such as even naval
constructors take part in but once in
a worshiping age. For the pub
lie in general-that is another matter.
There was a tremendous crush.
The lobby, corridors, stairways and
parlors of the hotel were filled with
women, some of them from the fash
ionable circles, and many Of them
school girls and debutantes
Some of the women kissed the hero
voluntarily, but most of them gave a
kiss for an autograph. Not few de-
clined Jhe osculation privilege, but
others yielded after playful struggles.
Several professed great Indignation
over Hobson's aggressiveness, but as
all had fair warning, there was little
sympathy for the victim.
Whatever embarrassment Hobson
may have suffered, or what modesty
he may have had, when this kissing
business began seems to have COM
petely vanished. He was positively
aggressive today and entered into the
attack with the enthusiasm of the
sehool-boy.
Nearly every woman who confront
ed the lieutenant wanted his auto
graph, and before he wrote it he al
ways gravely remarked with twinkle
in his eye:
"Of course, will be delighted to
give you my autograph, but you know
that l have established an invariable
rule that she who receives my name
must pay the penalty"
And then the women would blush
and look conscious and demonstrate,
and finally wind up by gracefully
yielding.
II just came to shake hands with
you" said one particularly fine looking
woman as she beamed into his face
look that belied her words
But are you not going to pay the
penalty?" smilingly returned the lieu
tenant.
20, my, no." came the startled re-
sponse, II have husband"
''Is he larger than | am?" came the
return, as Hobson encircled her with
his arm. She did not make any re-
sponse to this, as her powers of speech
were just then temporarily taken away
from her by a hearty smack.

"PIlice No Paulu

AS little matter occurred near the
headquarters of the very efficient Of
ficers of our city Friday, 1t calls to
mind the case where Mayor Richard
son had difficulty to induce a proprie-
tor OF a fruit stand to accept pay for
some cnestnuts, as he said, "P'llce no

For the past few days there have
been two or three Italians on the street
selling flowers. One of the officers
was standing in the door of police
headquarters when one of the venders
OF Italian handiwork was seen coming
down the street. The officer remarked
to a bystander that he would work the
man for bunch of flowers. That was
the easy part of it. The salesman was
glad to furnish an officer a bunch of
the paper article and passed on down
the street. The officer placed the
hoWers in the lapel of his coat, and in
Few minutes a second flower mer-
chant was seen coming, and the Of
ticers attention being called to the fact
he hastily removed the flowers from
his button hole and accosted flower

of flowers. The l-lnerant peddler took
in the situation, looked both up and
down the street, selected the largest
and handsomest nosegay in the lot
and handed it to Mr.. Posey-there now
we didn't mean to tell-and went the
way of his co-laborer.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining OF the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, ann when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be ta-
ken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever, nine cases ont OF ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth

What Merchants Say.

Among the merchants who are engaged

strong feeling exists on the question. The
unanimous verdict OF those seen was that
the municipality should at once proceed 10
regulate by license or otherwise the alien
bureaus maintained here for the purpose
OF taking away the trade that had been
drawn To Seattle by great expenditure OF
time. labor and money.
Seattle's relation with the British Co.
lunhia cities haye always been OF the
pleasantest character said one. Yet I
do not hold tina. this is any reason why
their merchants should endeavor 10 in
lure Seattle in the way they are doing.
The maintenance OF branch establishments
Of their boards OF trade In Seattle is a step
which ] consider is entirely outside of the
bounds OF deceney and fair dealing. Seattle
owes IL 20 herself and the business men
Of the city 20 their own independence and
self-respect to take steps which VIII dis
courage this sort of thing. Fair COMPETE
ton In an open field Is one thing. and d.
rect invasion of the precincts of a rival
and violation of all the precepts OF
square-dealing is quite another.

tons honestly made by Seattle. They came
