the engine-driver was partly respon-

gross negligence; the station master
was responsible by custom" to do
something which he omitted. but that
his culpability was not gross; the
signalman was negligent, but such
negligence was due to ignorance Of q

son was responsible Thus each Of
those four oficials did that which he
should not have done. or left undone
that which he ought to have done. The
result Of all these contributions Of neg

A boy about ten years old went
to the central police station in
Kansas City one day leading a fine
Shepherd dog by short piece OF
rope tied to his collar. The boys
face was red and swollen and he
was crying. well, we'll, well,
i what's the matter here?" asked a
good natured policeman, STOPPING
down and looking into the boys
face. 1t seemed like long time
before he could stop crying. Please
SIR" he sobbed, my mother is too
poor to pay for license for Shep,
and l brought him here to have
you kill him." Then he broke
out with another wall that was
heard all through the city building.
Shep stood there mute and motion,
less, looking up into the face Of his
young master A policeman took
out his handkerchief to blow his
nose and the desk sergeant went
out into the hall, absent>mindedly
whistling tune which nobody
ever heard before, while the captain
remembered that he must telephone
somebody. Then the chief lead
the boy to the door, and, patting
him on the head, said kindly:
"rhere, little fellow, don't cry any
more; run home with your dog.
l wouldn't kill Shep tor a thousand
dollars" ooh, thank you sir"
They were tears of JOY now. He
bounded out into the street and
ran off towards his home with
Shep prancing along and jumping
up and trying to kiss the boys
face. 1t was hard to tell which
was the happiest, the boy or the
dog.

agitators among them that create
riots, strikes, etc. The laborine
man is to be honored, the agitatol
to be Stunned. At the opening
meeting OF the recent organized
Federal Labor union in the city O
Toledo, Ohio, Saturday night
Mayor Samuel M. Jones had the
following to say concerning the
masses who labor:
Il have no quick acting plan to
suggest to you by which we may
bring about the millennium. am
no advocate Of the push the>but-
ton>and-I ll>do>the>rest scheme. l
believe in work. l believe also, in
education. That education which
man gets from actual contact with
his fellow men is often the best that
he can have and is free to all who
will seek it.
81 think we'll of the aims and
purposes of the Federal Labor un>
ion. Work is necessary. The
man, unless disabled, who does not
work, has nc right to live. That
law, In the sweat of thy face shalt
thou eat bread, has never been re-
pealed.
II believe in the equality of man.
We bring nothing into this world
and we can take nothing out Of it.
l remember we'll the picture on the
wall of an old inn. There was a
king who said: I rule ALL a priest
who said: 4 pray for ALL soldier
in full paraphernalia of war; who
said: 4 fight for all and poor
laborer with pick and shovel, who
said plaintively, And l pay for it

DO not envy the people who
seem to be getting something fol
nothing. Though unseen theil
payment is none the less heavy anc
exacting. The rich mans many
closets are but abiding places the
more for the skeletons with which
the rich mans life is beset. Anc
the selfish heart Of the rich mar
finds no food save on the selfish
heart Of the poor.
"But l believe, my friends, tina
we are growing better. We hav'
been ages in learning that men arr

The following is rich mans tale
81 am supposed to be what is called
rich man. l began with nothing
but my arms and what little brain
l had. Looking back over what
have done, feel sure that no man
on earth can ever say that l wrong
ed him out of cent, and know,
i'll know my own heart, that there
has not been an hour that my SYM
pathies for the men who are poor,
have not been just as warm as they
were when l was making a living
by my own physical work at so
much per day like my fellow
workingmen. And the more l
have seen of men, and rich men,
too, the more l am convinced that
there are thousands more, who
have a little money, whose best
thoughts are for those who, on a
daily stipend are struggling up to-
ward independence. The trouble
is that there is a certain class Of
m en- in this country who seem to
draw the line between the rich and
the poor, and whose sole business
seems to be to impress upon the
poor that just so soon as a man
makes a few thousand dollars, he
delights in nothing so much as to
grind the masses into the dust.
1 know there are good many rich
men in this country who would be
glad above all other things to
know that there was no such thing
in our country as man whose tut
ure was not already secured by
sufficient means to carry himself
and his family safely through life
and take from them the cares that
break hearts," r.

among them a large criminal class
which terrorizes the better class, and
which will prove a very hard factor in
carrying out strict quarantine regula-
lions.
Because there never has been plague
in San Francisco there is no reason
why there should not be, One medical
authority Is quoted as stating that the
climatic conditions of the United States
preclude the possibility of the plague
ever getting within the country" This
seems rather bold statement in face
of the fact that plague has played
havoc in every country of Europe, and
has recently been prevalent in South
America, in cities like Buenos .Ayres,
which arc certainly of similar climate
to many parts Of the States.
However it is suggested that the re-
ported case of plague in San Francisco
is only ruse on the part Of the police,
to isolate the Chinese section of the
city under strict quarantine guard, so
that they may round up the highbind-
ers. This may be true, but 1t is a very
serious step to take. To alarm whole
city, and probably a large portion of
the continent, as a police precaution is
very strong action. OF course the
highbinders of Chinatown are a serious
problem.
It is devoutly to be hoped that there
may be no plague in San Francisco.
If there is it is certain that it will be
fought as thoroughly as ever it has
been fought here, but the overcoming
1t there will be harder problem than il
has been here. and here it has strained
our resources to the utmost.

The arguments brought forward by a
correspondent yesterday with reference
TO milk from tuberculous cattle, not
being so dangerous as it is supposed,
are worthy of considerable thought. He
certainly goes far to prove his case, but
his view is in direct opposition to the
views of many of the most eminent men
in the world. However, the most emf
nent schools of medicine have been
proven to be in the wrong at times.
The subject is we'll worth the attention
of some of our leading physicians.

The passage of the Cullom bill
through the Senate is a long step to-
wards the final settlement of our politi-
cal status. 1t has passed with far less
amendment than was expected and
may be regarded as a success for those
who drew the bill. From the House
nothing is yet reported but we may
look for definite action shortly. Then
will come a conference committee and
an amended bill reported back to both
houses. We probably will have to wait
some time before we are fully informed
as to what our fate will be.

PLAGUE IN san FRANcIs0op

The presence of plague in San Fran
cisco will make the authorities of that
city stir round considerably. Anyone
who has been in the Chinatown of the
commercial metropolis of California
knows how insanitary 1t is, how crowd
ed together its population is and what
means Of concealment there are for
those who may be afflicted. To fight
plague in San Francisco's Chinatown
will be a harder proposition than it
has been to fight plague in Honolulu
or Kahului.
The San Francisco Chinese are hard
er to manage than the Chinese of the
Hawaiian Islands. They are less
amenable to authority and are more
turbulent than the quiet and orderly
oriental of the Pacific Isles. They have

SOUTH AFRICA.

The South African war news contin-
ues favorable to the British. The relief
of Ladysmith shows how Lord Roberts
aggressive campaign has acted upon
the Boer plans. An enemy threatening
his flank and rear obliged General Jou-
bert to concentrate his forces in the
eastern part of the Orange River Free
State. It was more Roberts campaign
than Buffers headlong and persistent
courage which really relieved Lady
smith.
The condition of the garrison in that
town was pretty bad. 1t looks as if
the gallant White and his force could
not have lasted much longer. Short ra-
tions and bad water brought about
their natural results, and it seems
doubtful now whether the garrison
could have withstood another assault
had it been delivered
Opinions in the Free State seem TO
be divided, and considerable section
of the country is in favor of peace,
while President Steyn is in favor of war
to the last. This attitude is bound to
have its influence of the coming cam
paign between Joubert and Roberts.
The former will not have so united a
force as he has had up to the present,
and that must affect his movements to
considerable degree. A decisive Vic
tory east or north of BlOemfontein will
probably end the war But it will be
no easy task to make that victory de-
cisive, An indecisive success would
prolong the war. I'D -.c.r

Benedict & Tarbell have just com
pleted deal for the sale of two and
one-ha1f acres of land on the shores of
Powers Lake. The property was
formerly owned by H. w. Herrick, of
McHenry county, Illinois, and was sold
to Annie L. May, of Chicago, for the
sum of So, 900.
The deal is considered simply a
forecast of several others which will
be made in this part of the county. It
is stated that the land purchased will
be used for the erection of a summer
resort. The Chicago company, of
which Mrs. May is the representative,
already controls other land in this
part of the county, and it is thought
possible that resort will be built in
the early spring. The property is
located in an ideal place and has a
lake frontage of over eight rods.

Kenosha County Medical Association
Meet and Elect Officers for
the Coming Year.
MORE INTEREST IN THE CITY
Members of the Association Will Seek to

After the business meeting the doc

DR.. Cleary read a very carefully pre-

forth quite an animated discussion.
ments were served and the doctors
spent pleasant hour in social inter
course.
It is stated that with the opening of
the new year the Kenosha County
Medical Association will take a more
active interest in the civic affairs of
Kenosha. The physicians of the city
have been looking up the subject of
the sanitary conditions of the city and
it is probable that the association will
take some action in the near future to
improve these conditions.
The City Council has proved itself
entirely inadequate to the demands OF
this part of their work and it is to be
hoped that the physicians will take
hold of the matter, and, if necessary,
see to it that the attention of the State
Board is called to the condition of
some of Kenosha's streets and alleys.
These dirty streets are breeders OF
germs of all sorts of disease. Besides
the Council has failed to provide any
way for the disposal of garbage in the
city and in many places the garbage
has lain for months. This is a thing
that is a menace to the good health of
the people of Kenosha and it is to be
hoped that the doctors will take hold
of the matter and force the Council to
act in some way.
