TRADERS MAY ADVERTISE.
London Court Decides I'm Favor
Of the EnterprisinE
Tradcsmnn.

On a recent Saturday the London
county, council was beaten in a case
affecting advertising signs. One Hull.
ters road. had been fined by the petty
magistrate for affixing an advertis-
ing sign on the front wall of his
premises. The ground of the al
legged offense laid by the London
county council was that the sign pro-
jected beyond the building line and
constituted a breach of the councils )
bylaws,
The case was appealed. and dur
ing the hearing of the appeal by
Mr.. Hull amusement was caused by
questions put to counsel for the
London county council by one Of the
judges. For instance, the question
was raised by his lordship whether
il a poor man hung bird cage out
side a window it would be consid-
cred q projection from the building
line.
Again. the Judge thought it might
be argued that coat-of-arms at.
fixed by a royal warrant-holder on
the front OF his building came under
the bylaw regarding projections,
Flags hung out on gala days. too, his
lordship merrily suggested. might be
banned in the same way. The court
decided that there had been no in
fringement of the building act, and
ordered the magistrates decision to
be reversed.

A CONvICT'Si CANE.
Sent to Postmaster General Smith
from COlOra do-Made OF Cam
celed Postage stamps.

Postmaster General Smith has re-
ceived unique walking stick, which
is known as the convict's cane. 1t was
made by an inmate of the penitentiary
at Canon City, Col. The cane has been
placed in the museum of the post Of
flee department. 1t is made of thou
sands of cancelled postage stamps,
wound round thin steel rod, subject
ed to heavy pressure, and then highly
polished. The convict who made the
cane sent it to the postmaster general
with the following letter:
81 ship you by express, prepaid,
cane made from cancelled stamps af-
fixed to three-sixteenth inch spring
steel rod, at the same time being sub
jected to high pressure. and then
worked down into it's present form,
polished and finished. / have been a
year in making this cane, working at
it during my leisure time, and have
taken great care and pains to make it
durable. My purpose in sending this
cane is that I am shortly to be dis
charged and will try to live honorably
in the future. am serving term for
my first offense and am heartily sick
of the life. | leave the penitentiary in
the dead of winter and it may be some
time before l can find employment.
am trying to raise some money to en-
able me to live until / can obtain en-
ployment. If, after you have exam
ined the cane, you would like to keep
it. whatever amount you will send me
will be greatly appreciated and i will
be truly grateful for your assistance.
IF you do not want the cane you can
return it at my expense. Respectfully.
"Number 4,59S."
Upon receipt of the cane the post
master general wrote to the warden
of the penitentiary and inclosed a
check for the convict.

THE GOVERNMENT FARM.
I'm BAD shape for Experiments Owing
TO Land Being Csed In To-
baccO Culture.

Secretary Wilson has corps Of
men at work at the government farm
adjoining the Arlington national
cemetery. but it will he probably a
year or two before the place will be
in shape where experiments in farm
ing can be conducted. In talking
about the government farm Secre-
tary Wilson frankly said it was un-
doubtedly the worst piece of land he
ever saw. 1t needed grading. drain
ing and fertilizing, and it will he
some time before the land will be in
shape to grow grass.
This land has been used for the
production of tobacco for so many
years that the fertility has been COM
pletely exhausted, hence it will be
necessary for the agricultural de-
partment to fertilize it to put in
shape for farming purposes.
The secretary has not outlined a
plan to be conducted in connection
with this farm, but will wait for con-
gress to say what must be done.
There is an annual appropriation OF
$40. 900 for conducting the farm. bu,
in addition TO getting the land in d
fertile condition buildings and out
houses must be constructed.
1t will be a long time before the
farmers of the country will gain any
practical benefit from the govern
ment farm at the national capital
but in the meantime the expert
mental stations throughout the coun
try are at work making experiment.
which will ultimately result in finan
cial benefit to the farmers and will
| lessen their work.

WHEN MORNING COMES.

(William NJ. Evarts' last words were:
Morning is coming.')
We call IL day, but Is 1t day
This little. woeful space
Through which we scheme and toll away
For power and for place?
Mayhap the frettlng and the pains,
The envy and the spite,
And struggles after worldly gains
Are only dreams that haunt us through
A weary, dreary night.
We learn to love and then. alas!
Grief near us ever sits.
E'en as we raise the joyful glass
Fate dashes 1t to bits;
The best rewards are always kept
just out of reach or sight,
But haply, after we have slept,
A glorious dawn may break and end
A weary, dreary night.
We fondly hope and darkly doubt,
We struggle In despair;
We thrust our anxious fingers out
And clutch but empty air!-
And yet. who knows? Mayhap the day
Is still to dawn-the light
May sweep our troubled dreams away
And bring the joys denied us through
A weary, dreary night.
