GOOD TO CATS.

why . Little Girl Decided to Marry .
 Doctor When She Grows Up.
 Little Edith Bloomberg of No. 637 De Lancey street. took her kitten to the Pennsylvania hospital to be treat cd. A surgeon operated on the animal the first case of the kind ever known at the hospital
 When the child appeared. she had the kitten clasped tightly in her arms. She slipped by the doorkeeper and into the treaty, while her big. somber, brown eyes searched the room anxiously. Then she saw Dr. McKelvey. She knew he was one of the physicians, be- cause she lives just around the corner, and all the children in the neighbor- hood know the white duck uniform.
 Approaching the surgeon timidly. she said:
 Please. Mister Doctor. my kitty's hurted himself. Please, won't you cure himi My poor kittykatsr'
 The surgeons face softened-
 "What's the matter with himr' he asked.
 Then a series of plaintive news came from the kitten, as his little mistress unclasped her arms. and gently placed him on a table for & diagnosis. The kit tens right fore paw was crushed and bleeding.
 "He was runned over by a wagon" explained Edith. "He was playin in front of the house, where a bread wagon came up. I heard him scream jus like a baby, and I runned out of the house, quick. and picked him up. And be jus looked up at me and cried and cried, till the tears runned down his cheeks. I know they brought Joe Ern- stein here when he was runned over on the leg, so brought kittykats. He won't die, will he, Mister Doctorr'
 pr. McKelvey examined the injured raw with much assumed gravity, while the little miss, with expectant eyes, followed every movement. Only one side of the paw had been crushed badly. It was necessary to amputate it
 A cloth sprinkled with ether was spread over the wondering kittens head, while his little mistress admon- ished him to ''be a good kitty" Then the wounded flesh was neatly cut away and the paw dressed.
 "win 'at ever grow on againr' asked the child.
 Perhaps"
 "You're jus awful good" was her thanks, as she picked the kitten up and held 1t tenderly in her arms.
 Bring him back tomorrow" called the surgeon, as the child started away.
 "Yes, sir"
 When she reached home and the story became circulated, children assembled from all parts of the neighborhood to examine the bandaged leg. Little Edith was a heroine. too, in the juvenile eyes.
 You jus ought Ter see that good doc tor" she said to an admiring group. ''He jus put a hankchief over kitty's head. and kitty never cried t all. And when he cut his paw of he never moved, but jus cried like anythin. When I grow up, I'm goin to marry a doctor. COZ they're good to cats. adelphia North American.

 Farragut accorded to Captain Bailey the privilege of demanding the surren- der of the city of New Orleans. Bailey and bis first lieutenant proceeded alone to the city hall, but the mayor dis claimed authority to make terms, as did also the military commandant, General Lowell. On the following day, April 25, Captain Albert Kautz of the Hartford, now a rear admiral, went ashore to receive the surrender. The mayor still refused to act, and on the 29th Farragut hauled down the stars and bars and ran up the stars and stripes without the formality of a sur render. GEORGE L. KILMER.

Harrison Knocked Down.

While Remington Harrison was en-
route homeward on Nuuanu street yes
terday forenoon astride a bicycle. he
met a horse and wagon driven by a
Chinaman with i'll results to himself.
The bicyclist was. on the right hand
side of the street below Beretania hill,
and half way down was compelled to
turn over to the Eva side to avoid n
bad piece of road. He crossed in front
OF tram car just in time to meet the
aforesaid horse and wagon. A collision
resulted, one of the shafts striking
Harrison in the groin and throwing him
from his wheel. While the blow was
hard one. he was able TO ride to Kapu
Wahine Club. on Nuuanu street, where
he resides. A later examination dis
closed no injuries. 1t was remarked at
the club as a strange coincidence that
at the moment Mr.. Harrison was hurt
the pet cat of the club had n fit, and
the attention of the club members was
conferred for nearly an hour on both Mr..
Harrison and the cat, a hose being
used with good effect on the latter.

Violently insane.

1t is with sincere regret that the
Courier has to chronicle this week the
going suddenly insane Of Mrs. w. A.
Baker. For several days past it was
noticed that she was not exactly
right and last Friday afternoon she be-
came violently insane. She was
brought to town Friday night by DR..
Kerr, assisted by Mr.. Mark Curtis and
Miss Maggie Mosher. County Judge
Carleton committed her to the James
town asylum last Saturday to which
place she was taken by Deputy Sheriff
Flynn. 1t is a very distressing case
indeed and her friends in Coopers-
town and around the county deeply
sympathize with. the two daughters
who have been 80 heavily afflicted
during the past few months. Mrs.
Baker has been in i'll health for long
time and that, together with the loss
of her husband recently has un-
doubtedly been the means Of un-
balancing her mind. 1t is to be hoped
the unfortunate lady will soon be re-
stored to her right mind and
and health 50 that the can re-
turn to her children.

The Coopesstown Courier is anoth-
er paper that believes that locality
should not c0iaaG-this time-in nom-
laating candidates for congress.
Needless to say II lives in the same
locality with NaHsalall and spalding.-
Plstndealer.
Correct you are, my brother, but
were both gentlemen living in Grand
Forks or in any other town in your
district, the Courier would still be for
them. We care not where they live.
We know them both to be gentlemen
who have represented-not the fifth
district alone-but the whole state of
North Dakota, and Grand Forks has
not lost anything BY them living out
of that district. The Courier's posi-
tion seems to be endorsed all over this
state, irrespective Of location, and we
hope to see the Plaindealer fall grace
fully into line for popular and we'll
deserved movement to nominate two
good men for congress.

The Oregon election was a very
emphatic endorsement ef the admins
txation. Every nominee on the re-
pnblican ticket, excepting governor
and there was factiOnal Aght on for
this. Office among repuhafcans-was
elected by large majorftlex The fight
for congressman was hard one and
the administrations work in the
Phatppines was the battle cry of the
republicans and the other side Of
coune decried the policy OF the adj
miniMEation. The result is that both
republican congressman were re.elect-
ed by tsereased majorttfes, which is
an indication that the people do not
endorse ttae shot air" orators who are
always p,t3ltng down the administEa-
tion. The result will be the same In
the fall elections. Stick pin in here.

The council of East Grand Forks
passed a resolution excluding the re-
porter for the Plaindealer from its
meetings-because he criticised their
action in leaving the city without
fire protection. One of the aldermen
threatened to throw the representa-
tive of the art preservatiye out of the
council rooms if he dared to report the
proceedings of that august body for
the beneft Of the general public. The
P. ID. ccFnes back at the council, by
reiterating former statements and
saying it will be with the council at
all future meetings and if any attempt
is made to exclude it it will see what
the laws OF Minnesota are good for.
If the council is so touchy about fair
criticism what will it be when the
P. d. opens on 'em with few gums.
The p. DIS only desire is to be fair
and report the news, by gum, it says.

The Grand Forks Daily Plaindealer,
which has been a democratic paper
for many years, announces that its
sympathies hereafter will be with the
republican party. the party that
stands for financial integrity, for
business advancementifor the material
good of each of the Is, coo, 900 people of
the nation. Giving its reasons for
passing up democracy, the Plain
|,dealer says:
''Could the days when what was
known as the Cleveland democracy"
which stood for ''honest money!" an
equitable tariff, the sentiment that
~ public office is public trust" be
enticed to return, there would be no
necessity of any announcement of
change in the politics and policies Of
this paper, but, scanning the political
horizon, and finding naught but
brawifng and invidious contention
wherever the name of democracy is
named: and, finding too, that the
''negatfon" of the democratic party Is
its only source of hope now or in the
days 70 come, this paper is compelled
to part company with it.

When defamers of the army are
Missed in the u. S. senate and the
administration Is maligned, slandered
and hampered in its efforts for the
rehabilitation Of the Philippines it is
well to remember that no war was
ever conducted with more patience,
forebearance and humanity than that
prosecuted in the Philipplnes-first
against the Spanish. and then against
the Filipinos.
Sentiment and sympathy increase
with distance but protective retri-
button" is lawful and right according
TO modern warfare. Phil Sheridan
ordered the Piegan Indians punished
because all other methods had failed
to protect settlers from outrages-
and Boston shuddered at the drubbine
given the murderous Apaches. Charles
King, formerly brigadier-general of
U. S. volunteers in the Philippines,
has very sensible, timely and frank
statement of Military Morals in the
Philippines in recent issue of The
Saturday Evening Post which will do
everyone good to read, and disabuse
many of erroneous conceptions of
modern warfare. Speaking of Filipino
treachery and the disregard of flags
of truce by them he cites the instance
when in March, 1899, a flag of truce
twas used by the Tagal insurgents to
lure Major Frank White (now govern
or of North Dakota and a detachment
forward from the trenches covering
the south front of Manila. They
opened fire on this little command
as soon as it was well out in the open
ground
'sFinally,'' he says, ''be patient
enough to remember that neither In
dian nor Malay was ever successfully
handled with gloves; that despite all
the trimming and humanizing in the
course of centuries of the laws of war,
war is still what human nature makes
