SYRUP BILL A GOOD MEASURE.
Is Opinion of Those Best QuaIiaed
to Discuss II.

Probably but few bills passed by the
Legislature have had for the general
public the interest that the pure syrup
bill, passed yesterday by the Senate,
has. Its results can not be other than
beneficial both to the consumer, who
will be enabled to get the pure syrup,
admittedly the best in the country, and
to the cane-grower and manufacturer,
as WELL for pure syrup will find a
wider market and bring better prices.
The material chiefly used to adul-
terate the syrup is glucose. One of the
peculiar features brought out in the
effort to get the bill through the House
was an opposition from some of the
manufacturers themselves who had
been taught to believ ethat the pure
syrup could not be made cheap enough
to compete with other syrups in some
of the markets. an argument that had
originated with, and been propagated
by, the middle men.
In thus opposing the bill the manu-
facturers followed a very short sighted
policy, said a gentleman thoroughly
acquainted with the situation, for, he
continued, the pure syrup will readily
bring price even in competition, that
will continue TO make its manufacture
most profitable. and will drive from
the market the concoctions that have
been masquerading under the name OF
Georgia cane syrup,

NOT MANY KICKED.
Real Estate Owners Satisfied With
Old Assessments.

Real Estate Owners Satisfied With
Old Assessments.
Only about half as many objections
have been made this year to the as
sessment of city property as last year.
Yesterday was the last day upon
which objections could be filed with
the Tax Assessors and there are only
about twenty-five property owners
who claim that their property has de-
Perforated in value.
Notice was given by the assessors
that unless objections should be made
within fifteen days after Nov. 20, the
assessment and valuation of property
for 1902 would be used as the basis of
taxation for 1903. This notice is given
regularly each year. Last year there
were in the neighborhood of fifty per-
sons who entered objections to the as
sessment of their property. but this
year there is only about half this num-
Der. These protests or objections will
all be considered by the board.
The assessors have an immense
amount of work ahead. Blanks will be
sent out for the returning of personal
property as Is customary. This work
will probably be begun during the
present week. The returns must be
made on or before Jan. 20. This ap-
plies to personal property. In the mat
ter of real estate the assessors decide
the valuation of the property. Their
judgment in the matter is practically
final, although appeals can be made
to Council.

Tomochichis can finish first by winning
six and the Hussars losing six games.
The Yacht Club can finish second by
winning six and the Tomochichis los

How Tracy Put nm End to Lobbying
by Naval Omcers.
Washington. Dec. 13.-Every session
of Congress large numbers of commit
tees and attorneys come down to
Washington TO watch the progress OF
legislation. Some of them are correct
ly called lobbyists; others deserve
more innocent appellation. In recent
years the practice has grown of assoc
Citations of government employees COM

has increased so much as to become
something of a menace. as some OF the
organizations like that of the letter
carriers have votes in every congress
sional district, and what is more. are
always able to muster quite a contin-
gent of their friends.
One such lobby was effectually
squelched here during the Harrison adj
ministration. Then It was the custom
of the officers of the navy to keep a
committee of three officers at the Capt.
tol to look after their interests In leg
islation. One day Secretary of the
Navy Tracy was found in his office in
the War and Navy Building in a rage.
Nothing would appease him, for his
anger knew no bounds.
What do you suppose happened to
me to-day?" he shouted at a personal
friend who entered his office.
OF course the friend was ignorant OF
the cause.

tary, II went to the Capitol to-day to

been advocating"
What did you do?" the Secretary
was asked by his friend.
"Do?" was the reply. why, / have

And that is exactly what the Secre-
tary had done. He stamped out lob

swoop. but the evil fingers with other

TOOK OFF HER PETTICOAT.
To Cover the Cold Feet of a Bah,
ON q Street Car,

~ lover the cold Feet OF a Baby
ON a Street Car.
Chicago. Dec. 9.-Wih more than a
dozen astonished but admiring pasesn-
gers looking on, a society woman this
afternoon arose in a street car, remov-
ed her silken petticoat, and wrapped IT
about the shivering form of an infant
two years of age, says an Omaha tele-
gram to the Tribune The woman was
Mrs. Harry Cartan, of 1906 Burt street.
formerly Miss Sadie Nash, and a
daughter of Millionaire Nash, the sec
rotary and treasurer of the smelter
combine.
Mrs Cartan boarded an inbound car
at Thirty-eight and Cunning streets.
The car was without a fire, in spite of
the zero weather. In one corner of the
car set man, poorly clad, and who
held on his knee a baby. The little
child's feet and legs were entirely bare
and blue from the cold. The father had
beaten look, as though the world had
used him roughly. An eyewitness
states regarding what followed:
1T was JUST beginning to dawn upon
me that / might do something besides
stare, when a rustling attracted my
gaze to Mrs. Cartans corner. She had
her hands behind her, under he'd cloak,
and the next thing / knew she was
standing erect in that car and permit
ting to slip from her a heavy, rustling
pettieoat. AS II fell she stopped and
caught 1t in her hands, then, holding to
the straps, she stepped out OF IL and
walked down the aisle to the man and
baby. STOPPING over, she snuggled that
garment about the infants legs, sniI-
ing into the child face, and remarking
to the father: I'm afraid the baby has
scarcely enough on for this weather +"
