A man was brought before
Judge Kennedy, of San Francisco,
recently for violating city or
dinance in driving a delivery
wagon on the boulevard. "Don't
you know, sir" said the Judge,
with every appearance of stern
ness, shat you have committed a
heinous offense by driving your
delivery wagon where only the
rich can drive without molestation?
Get q heavy four-in-hand with a
flunky dressed in monkey-fashion
and blowing a postillion's horn,
sitting behind-exchange your
light delivery wagon for this and
you Will never be arrested" The
Judge then dismissed the case,
after denounoing the ordinance as
"a piece Of class legislation, petty,
absurd and unworthy of enforce
ment."

A Notable Charity

A visit to the eye, ear, nose and
throat hospital, of New Orleans,
will convince, even the most skep-
teal, of the practical good done
to suffering humanity by that
noble institution. The wonderful
cures effected there, especially in
the eye department, are marvel
GUS. Yet, one marvels more to
see how little it's great charity is
appreciated. Since its foundation
in 1889, the various parishes out
side of New Orleans, sent 13,441
patients to be treated there gratis.
But very few parishes have during
that period, contributed to its
support. Fifty-eight parishes are
represented in the above figures,
and only nine parishes through
their Police Juries, donated small
sums for it's charitable work. st.
Mary sent 500 patients up to Dec.
Dist, 1901, and during a period of
thirteen years contributed only
$50, which amount was collected
by DR.. Ira Bowman, of Centreville.
Will St. Mary throw the burden of
aiding its poor upon New Orleans,
and not even give little token of
appreciation? Surely not. We
feel that the parish has not done
more in the past for this noble in
stitution, because the attention OF
our Police Jurors was not called
to it's pressing needs. Let the
Police Jury, therefore, vote an an
nual donation of 500 to support
this charitable work, for st. Mary
figures fourth in the number of
patients sent there, and our poor
will always fine willing hearts and
willing hands to relieve their suf-
ferings, at the eye, ear, nose, and
throat hospital.

WHO MUST SHUT THE DooRp

There seems to be a labor question
within the state house which may have
to be decided by arbitra ton before the
labor comm issioner. if that is possible
or there may be strike with all it's
horrors. The question is, who shall shut
the door at the top of the dome.
Governor Stanley does not think it
is his duty. Secretary of State Clark
is away SO much of the time fishing
that he can not hold himself response
BILE for the closing of the door. State
Auditor Cole is really too busy with
the work in his office to look after the
door. State Treasurer Grimes is so wor-
ried over Burton's troubles that he can
not look after so small a matter OF
course Colonel George w veale, the
custodian of the state house. can not
be expected to look after the door in the
dome. That is not his business, nor is
it the business of the janitors under
him, SO they seem to think. As. Col.
Veales duties do not require that he
shall climb to the top of the dome and
close the door, it therefore devolves upon
some of the state officers to do it, or
keep the door locked all the time. Such
is the state of affairs and the executive
council has ordered the door locked and
people can no longer climb the done for
asview of the country.
1t really seems a queer state of affairs
when an executive council with a Gus
todian and a couple of dozen janitors
for said custodian to command, can not
have door shut. What is the reason
