lickin ma and just grabbed the salt
cellar and let 1T fly. Gee! 1t struck
him over the eye and made it good
and black. III bet he won't try to
lick her any more when I'm around"
The trouble which resulted in a
free-for-all fight among the members
of the Cohen family started over an
elder boys purchase of two collars
and a new necktie. The older boy,
who. is about 16 years old, has been
working out for several months and
has been in the habit of turning over
all his money to his father. Last
week he took out enough money to
buy the collars and necktie, and this
action angered the father. 81
When the wage-earner came home,
his father started to reprimand him,
and ended all by throwing the col
| lars and the tie in the stove. At that
| juncture Mrs. Cohen took a hand in
| the proceedings and told her husband
what she thought of him. Angered
| by opposition from two members OF
| his family, the elder Cohen started to
i take revenge BY beating his wife. He
! caught her by the arm and landed
one blow on her body, when Max,
only years old, grabbed the salt cell
lar and threw 1t at his father with
| such true aim that the missile struck
the man In the eye. 4
This caused a lul1 in the hostilities,
during which Mrs. Cohen ran into the
street and called an officer.

GREENCASTLE. Ind, Nov 22.-The Re-
publican party of this city is beginning to
arouse from its dormancy of the last few
years and to prepare for the coming city
campaign. The disastrous outcome of the
campaign of 1902, when a Democratic mayor
was elected, the first for an entire genera
ton. and Democratic councilmen were re-
turned from unexpected sources, has
shown the party leaders that some atten-
ton has to be paid to the demands of the
people in regard to several matters of civil
Importance, and that these demands from
the voters are being met indicates that the
party will go into the May election undi-
vided. Nancy men who were dissatisfied
with some conditions voted the straight
Democratic ticket, others voted Democratic
on the mayor only, and others have become
dissatisfied since the election because or
unpopular measures from the Common
Council and on account of some OF the
appointments made by the Police Board
and the fire department committee. But
these, and those who have been insisting on
certain things that were objected to, now
show a disposition to unite again, probably
with compromises on both sides, and the
indications are that the ticket nominated
by the Republicans will win.
The situation is receiving special atten-
ton now because of the appearance of can
didates. Among these are John Goddard,
Art Stone, James Cherry and James Hay
worth for marshal, Walter Allen for treas
urer, and Charles Preston and George Ed
win Black for city clerk. The present mar
shall, William Il. Starr, who has held his
office for the last twenty years or more,
declares he will not run again. OF these
candidates mentioned the only one now in
office is Walter Allen, who is filling his first
term.

FRENCH WRITER PROTESTS.


PARIS, Nov. 23.-Bonaparto Wyse, the
French engineer to whom Colombia grant,
ed the oEtginal concession for a Panama
canal. addresses long letter to the Eclair
in which ne says:
1.-The in3pudent attitude of the Washing
ton government should have the effect OF
arousing france and bringing about a COM
mon actidpt by the European governments
against the American peril, and also of
proving To the most incredulous the imme-
date importance Of piercing the fsthmus."
After calling attention to the interest
which eviry European power has in this
question, ihe writer says that "a reasonable
understanding between the powers of
Europe Should suffice to maintain the SOW
ereignty kof Colombia and prevent the
United States from following to its logical
end the dangerous course on which the
government Of that country has started"
This e.eat people," says the writer,
Though carried away by exuberance of
sense and "a discreet warning would be suf-
ficient to- bring Y TO a more reasonable
view. THIS would not mean that Colombia
should be allowed to oppose the construction
of the canal, which ought to be accom-
plished bs those who began it. IL France
should fnally renounce her rights. the
United Sestes might play the leading part
on condition that it indemnify the inter-
ested parties"
Having regard to the dignity OF Colon
bia. NJ Wyse suggests that If diplomacy
should feN, the questions at issue might
be submitted to The Hague tribunal He
points olsi that Colombia's efforts to re-
gain the isthmian territory might meet
with diffralty. 1t would be impossible 10
send trocq!s overland and should they be
sent by STA American warships would stop
the TRANSPORTS. He suggests that an escort
of Eurolssa an warships to the Colombian
troops would prevent this. Finally the
writer sass that IL the United States should
resort to the employment ''of brute force
Colombia would be justified in resorting
to reprisSls and seizing the United States
minister at Bogota and other American
residents sof Colombia
when I'VE have TO deal with dangerous
| lunatics pr highwaymen." says NJ. Wyse,
lit is reIldering a service to all TO defend
ones self: even by excessive MEANS
NJ Wye insists that arbitration by The
Hague tI4bunal is the only proper solution
of the question at issue.
