NECESSARY EVILS.

We sometimes think that tolls a curse
We long for lots of treasure,
And yet conditions might be worse
Is gilded ease a pleasure?
1 think at times we all would shirk.
But while we're hale and stout it
Is not SO bad a thing to work
What should we do without it?
And money-that's just shining dross.
The root of sin and sorrow,
Too eagerly we mourn Its loss,
To gain, steal. beg and borrow.
It's sordid. wretched, worthless trash,
There's little room to doubt it,
Still, it is good to ave some cash
What should we do without 1t?
And love is cause Of ills untold;
It makes us lots of trouble,
In some respects it's worse than gold
An iridescent bubble.
And still it raises us above
Our baser selves. To scout 1t
Is foolish, SO we'll cling to love
What should we do without It?

AIusI u Jog TO Know what not to
attack!
Things went on from bad to worse
along Chinkapin Ridge. Every morn
ing some animal was missing, and the
h~alf-devoured remains were generally
found. One evening at dusk the tiger
dashed up to Mason's cow-pen,
grabbed Q roofing pig, and carried
the squealing thing OFF under it's
owners eyes. Three different men
tried to kill the big brute when he
came prowling around their houses
at night, but their shots didn't take
effect; and the belief got abroad that
the panther's skin was too thick and
tough for an ordinary rife-bullet to
penetrate. That made him more
dreadful than ever. Several times
parties gathered to hunt him down;
but the dogs either wouldn't or
couldn't follow aScold trail.
Along in December the first light
snow fell. That was the signal for
Q general gathering. All the men on
Chinkapin Ridge, and all the BOYS big
enough to use guns, came together
for q rousing hunt. My uncle was in
the party, anu so was I. Every fell
low had tried to get the gun with. the
biggest bore. And L remember that
we were oil Dragging about what ter
rifle loads we had put in. Some had
rammed down two or three big balls

FORFEITED TO GALLAUDET.
Referee Decides Against Colum bian in
Today's Foot Ball Game.

The foot ball season of 1903. so far as the
Columbian University team is concerned,
came to a close this morning when that
eleven forfeited the game at Van Ness Park
to the team representing the Gallaudet Col
lcge. The game was awarded to Gallaudet
by Referee Watson result of a wrangle
over the ball in the first part of the second
half neither side having scored. The play
of both teams were in good form and
worked hard to score.
Gallaudet kicked off to the Columbans.
1t landed ia the hands of Machler. who
made fifteep-yard run. BY a succession
of plays the Cofumbians advanced to the
Gallaudet twentyyard line. At that point
the Coumbians were penaliZed for hold
ing.
The BAN was forfeited to the mutes on
their 40-yard line and by a series of bucks
they succeeded in getting the pigskin to the
Columbian 10-yard line. There is where
.he Columbians are said to have held and
placed the ball on the 3-yard line, after
the Gallaudet placekick failed.
The Columbians were preparing, to make
strong buck when time called
In the early part of the second half the
players became involved in a dispute over
an alleged false rush the part of the
mutes. The referee ruled against Column
bians. While the latter team was calling
for new referee the game was declared
forfeited.

BeggarS.
From the Boston Transcript.

From the Boston Transcript.
The begging nuisance is not very serious
one in this city. but occasionally pedestri-
ans along Boylston street in the evening
are accosted by tramps or beggars. Phila-
delphia has just undertaken 10 remedy the
begging evil in that city by rigorous treat
ment of this class of individuals. There is
no lack of evidence that the support given
ia heggars by kindly disposed people or by
those who will give a few cents to be rid
of the beggar and satisfy a cheap vanity
are largely responsible for the nuisance.
Modern society undertakes to provide shell
ter and protection to those who are really
in need and deserving of help. and really
believes it does so. The policeman should
be looked to as the one through whom pub
lie largess should be bestowed; but beggars
and tramps usually give the policeman
wide berth and find it, easier to impose on
the credulous citizen. The only thing that
will effectually dispose of the nuisance is to
have the public act together in refusing IN
diyidual support. while directing the needy
and deserving to the proper agencies TOT
their assistance and then maintaining these
generously.

American Plimsoll Mark.

From the Boston Herald
II has been suggested by the American
Association of Masters and Pilots that this
government ADOPT a system of marking
ships similar to that in use in Great Brit
ain to prevent the overlooking of vessels.
We presume that there will be bitter oppo-
sition to This measure I'm some circles. Ship
owners will doubtless advance the plea that
If is an understandable interference with
tber business There was a great hue and
cry among British ship owners when the
Ieejsla ton in regard to loading limits was
ma ssed there, largely through the efforts of
Samuel Pijmsoll, who gave his name to the
mark which British vessels carry to show
their loading limit. When this legislation
was enacted, almost thirty years ago. ii
was predicted that its effect on British
shipping would be SO injurious that Eng
land would be quickly outstripped in the
ocean carrying trade by her competitors.
AS Is frequently the case. however, the
claims advanced by those blinded by vested
interests proved to be entirely erroneous
when actually put to the test
