IN NORFOLK.
An unripaled exhibit of hIgh-grade
needle work in the salcsroolns of the
Singer Manufacturing Company, under
the Opera House, on Church street, Is
now attracting much attention, and
evincing unstinted praise from nd
mirers of artistic needlework OF high
order. This exhibit consists OF copies
of several oil paintings, notably "In
the Garden" 1.-THE Mill Pond" 1.-THE
Hunter and Peaches and Chrysan-
themums,' ench executed in silk on the
Incompatible Singer Sewing Machine,
In a manner SO faultless that they can
not easily be selected from the original
oil paintings. The actual cost of the
pictures are in excess of similar pro-
auctions in oil. To instance: "In the
Garden cost s11.63. "rhe Mill Pond
sos. and The Hunter s52.95.
In this superb collection OF art needle
work there are finely dressed dolls. one
there costing $26.50 alone to dress; ta-
pestries, including a reproduction OF 4
famous painting OF Mary Stuart in silk
at n cost Of s29.5I; table scarf; two bolt
Ing cloth curtains costing $3.50, and
sH.2S, respectively. and various other
articles of utility which will rival the

That Canned Beef Again.
States.

Chief Surgeon DAILY, who was Oh
duty with Skaters army at Tam
pa, and Porto Rico, stated in his
report that the beef supplied as
food to the army was unfit for use,
having been injected with delete
rious drugs and chemicals in order
that it might the better resist a
tropical climate. This is the stuff
which the commisssry department
insisted should be used as an army
ration, the opinions and advice of
surgeons and the orders of COM
manding officers to the contrary
Notwithstanding
Moreover, according to the re-
ports of fifteen army officers in
Porto Rico, furnished by General
Miles to the war inquiry commits
sion, the canned beef issued there
as rations, under orders from the
commissary department, was mo
thing more than refuse after vari-
ous kinds of soups had been ex-
tracted from TIA "slimy looking
mass of beef scraps, unpalatable
to the taste and repulsive to the
sight" which had no nutrimen'
in it, and turned the stomachs OF
the men who tried to eat it"
These army officers are the men,
clearly enough, whom the canned
beef contractors ought to sue in
the courts for slander and libel,
and against whom Commissary
General Eagsn should direct the
fire of his wrath.

A novel case was recently deci-
ded by a Philadelphia magistrate.
A rabbi and his assistant were ar
rested by the agent of the society
for the prevention of cruelty to
animals on the charge of plucking
live chickens in the market place.
The rabbi made a partial denial,
and said: "The Talmud provides
for the killing of animals for food.
According to its provisions I, as a
rabbi of our holy religion, am per-
mitted to make an incision in the
neck of each animal to be used for
food by Jews. As soon as the
blood has been drawn 1 am per-
mitted to dress the carcass accor-
ding to our law, which is to be
cleansed at once. The chickens |
plucked had been killed according
to our religion"
The magistrate declared: "Your
religion may permit you to pluck
live chickens, but the law of this
country does not" He fined de-
PENDANTS $40 each, and upon their
refusal to pay it they were taken
to prison.
