THE BUTT-EM-OvER PEOPLE.

Amt it painful though. to meet 'en- Guess you'll savvy what I mean; Sort of folks that's always finding Spots on folks you thought were

 Here's the sort of jokes they hand Sort that gives you lasting hurts: She's a winning little creature Air't it awful that she nirts?'' You may know some jolly fellow With q countenance you like Just about as clean a locker
 As you'd ever chance to strike. Comes this hammer arnl'd despoiler Always watching out for kinks, Saying: Bully little fellow
 Simply shameful that he drinks" Or some hard worked fellow being That you've learned to know of late Fighting bravely and unaidad
 'Gainst a stubborn. frovning fate; Just a mention inadverterL
 To this but-'eHl-over pest: Acts hard up t keep it quiet
 How he's featherin' his nest Then that other chap whose handclasp Oft had saved you from dispair- Surely there's no blot or blemish On his 'scutcheon white and fair But this human turkey buZzard Seeking stains on every life. Sneers: Hes never half so jolly When you see him with his wife, Oh. these butt-'em-over people,
 With their poison pointed darts Aimed always at fellow beings Tearing idols from our hearts, When our eyes are blind t. failinss, God, in mercy. keep them blind If to see would start Us probing
 For the frailities W. might find.

HE discovery announced on Christmas Day
by DR.. Asa Ferguson of London is-provided it
stands the test-the most valuable Christmas gift
the world has received for many year. It is that
lemon juice is sure death to typhoid baci and
sequently is preventative of the disease. Dr. Fer
guson has tested pure cultures with the result
that the germs killed, and the Chicago health
department. (which has made number of expert
ments since the discovery was announced says that
the antipathy between the baci and the acid is SO
strong that few drops of juice will render cup of
Chicago drinking water innocuous. It has been
known for time that certain acids will extermi
nate typhoid germs, but the trouble heretofore has
been that the acids also very injurious to human
kind. The lemon satisfies aesthetic craving is
palatable and effective.
Altho DIR. Ferguson does not say lemon juice is
cure for typhoid fever it may yet transpire
that such is the case. Time will show. An expert
nent In chemistry is comparatively simple matter
after the formula has been once evolved because the
conditions will invariably be the same. But ex-
periments in biology quite different affairs. In
them all the conditions never twice alike Con-
sequently long observation is necessary before an
exact conclusion can be arrived at. Because lemon
renders harmless water containing typhoid germs it
does not necessary follow that is cure for typhoid
fever. Pathological conditions may neutralize it's
effect after it reaches the stomach However, if it
accompishes what DIR. Ferguson claims for it, the
world will be justified in calling his nanfe blessed.

FRENCH people never let we'll enough alone.
Since the arrest of the Humbert family fortnight
ago. that astute statesman and redoubtable warrior
Colonel Du Patty de Clam, and others of his ilk,
have been granting interviews to newspaper writer's
to the effect that the Humbers active in behalf
of Dreyfus, and the papers have been printing the
stuff and reviving the scandal. Nothing better IL
Illustrates the temperamental difference between the
French and Anglo-Saxon races than the Dreyfus
case. Except that thes accused held a prominent
position, there nothing unusual in the case.
The same sort of thing goes on in England and
America each year. the only difference being that it
is not made public. In the Dreyfus case all the
influence and machinery of the state was arrayed
against single individual accused of crime. That
large percentage of the public believed him inno-
cent made difference Of course he got the worst
OF it the same scores of men in this country do
each year. The French love of the sensational made
the case cause eelebs and gave the English speak
ing world opportunity to hold up it's hands and
roll it's eyes in holy horror and say "ThanK heaven
we are not as these men, ~ -
To the woods with such canting self Qualification
and phariseeism The would be knight Grant will not
have to the seas to find wrongsto right Men
much the same in all civilized parts of the globe.
Humankind eternay strives after ideal and eter-
nay fails to realize it. Dreyfus suffered because some
one gave information to the Germans pertaining to
the French army. The poor devil that "squeals' on
the police under Tammany Hall is melted out as
hard fate Dreyfus underwent, and possibly with
far less justice And for sectional and racial pref
udice, it is to be found in, America as well as in
France. We keep such matters quiet finding solace
in the belief that "The law do no wrong" They
make the mistake of discussing them in France.
That's the difference.

In VIEW of the universal interest displayed just
in the boycotts in the anthracite districts of
Pennsylvania, decision handed down last week by
Justice Andrews of the New York supreme court is
of unusual interest. A body of men, says Justice
Andrews, an individual, has perfect right not
only to refuse to deal with merchant for any cause
but also to influence others to have dealings with
him. In order to attain this end picketing is lawful
is also the distribution of circulars setting forth
the grievance against the person under the bann
This is virtually boycott, and the decision is
contrary to the ideas held by federal judges in
Pennsylvania Justice Andrews makes it clear that
the person or persons insituting the boycott have
no other rights or privileges than the ordinary
citizen. They must not commit trespass by stand
ing in front of the store they legally make
nuisances of themselves by collecting crowds and
blocking the street.
The case in question was suit brought by the
propretors of dry goods store located at Syracuse

PRESIDENT Roosevelts action in connection with
the postmastership at Indianola MISS is character
istic of the man. It is about what those who have
watched his career would have predicted he would
do if the case had been laid before them month
ago. The idea that he would remove good and
faithful public servant merely because of racial
prejudice would be in the nature of joke to
those who have studied the president. Just now
the Office is closed, but Mrs. Cox will continue
in charge of the post Office at Indianola as long
as the present administration remains in Office or
as long as the post Office remains in Indianola.
If the people insist on her removal they will have to

a series of rooms, a number of
which contained lodges or shelves.
The deeper into the earth the
excavators go the greater are the
evidences of ancient learning, cul--

The excavators are said to have
unearthed $4,000 tablets, the con-
