CHINA FOR WHITE HOUSE.

Collectors of American china are
waiting with a good deal of interest the
arrival of a new set of china that Mrs.
Mckinley has ordered for the White
House. The china is to be of American
manufacture and will be made at
GAINESVILLE, o. Those who have seen
the complete pieces say it is exceed
ingly beautiful and will compare ia
vorabiy with Lincoln. Hayes and Har-
rison sets. The design, as approved by
Mrs. Mckinley. is simple yet very dec
will be the copyrighted design that
appears on the Harrison 'plates-the
American eagle and shield and the
words "E Pluribus Unum." Around
the border of the new plates will be
placed the arms of the thirteen original
states in colors. Some of the big col
lectors think that while this design
pieces, it will not show up so well on
the cups and small ware. The Harri-
son set was turned out by a firm in
this city. and the contract permitted
the maker to manufacture duplicate
pieces of the original set. He took ad-
vantage of this and the result is that
Harrison plates are scattered all over
the country, and can be bought at his
establishment now. 1t is understood
that this permission will not be grant
ed in the present case, and that only
one set of new china will be manufac-
trred.-From a Washington Letter.

LEGLEss MAN A MURDERER.

Robert NJ. Rouss, a man without legs,
was today found guilty of murder and
sentenced to twenty-five years in the
penitentiary. Rouss took his convic-
ton cheerfully. smiling when it was

He is professional piano player and
for years earned living in saloons
and cheap concert halls. Five months
ago he had a quarrel in a saloon with
John James about payment of cents
for glass of beer. and in a fit of tenn

RIGID INSPECTION LAWS.
The Necessity of Strict Sanitary
Measures.

Commenting upon the suggestion of
a territorial paper that the live stock
Wilcox Range News publishes the fol-
lowing:
1t is hardly necessary to argue the
absolute need of stringent inspection
laws. Any one who questions it should
read the accounts given by the south
ern California newspapers of the losses
that have been sustained there by rea-
son of tick fever during the past sea-
son. The fact is incontrovertible that
but few years ago the entire territory
of Arizona narrowly escaped being
placed below the federal quarantine
line only because a few pastures near
Phoenix had been, through accident or
carelessness. infested with fever ticks.
such action on the part of the depart
nent of agriculture would have meant
ruin to the cattle industry of the ter
ritory. The repeal of all statutes re-
lating to the sanitary board would in

Were the present admirable registra-

how long would it be until cattle were

persons who have no right to them?
It is next to impossible to devise laws

hardship or inconvenience to some one,

About the only complaints made
against the inspection laws at present
are from the butchers, who object to
the provision requiring them to keep a
descriptive record of cattle slaughtered
and the section imposing a fee of %
cents for each hide inspected.
Cattle growers are undoubtedly Il

She is no more than II years old, but

marvellous voice first attracted atten-

the town straightway took her in hand.
