Erected at Washington by
Public Subscription.

1t ought to be easy for the Thomas
jefferson Memorial association TO ac-
complish its purpose. The ASSOCIATION
which has u branch in each state, ana
which has Admiral Dewey Ut its mead
has issued an appeal to the American
people for funds TO erect tablet, mon
ument or other memorial to JeHtrSon
at the national capital The Intention
is not to ask anything from congress-
but to rely solely on the voluntary CON
tributions of the people. III, aum'ral
says that the character anu cost of
the proposed memorial canno, now he
stated. but it will be appropriate TO
the greatness of the man and the I'M
portauce of the document from Which
his name is iuseparable, Rigid ccouo-

work"
Here was buried Thomas Jefferson,
author of the Declaration Of American
Independence, OF the Statue of Virginia
for Religious Freedom, and Father of
the University of Virginia" This in
scription on his grave in Monticello,
written by jefferson himself, omits one
very important claim which it's author
had on the remembrance of his coun-
trymen. 1t made no reference to the
Louisiana expansion, which is the act
Of Jefrerson's that is uppermost in the
minds of his countrymen at this time.
Oddly. too, Admiral Dewey, who has
just issued his appeal for funds for
! the memorial, seems not to have had
! this act in mind. Jefferson's and Dew

the omission. The statute of religious

MICE IN THE ORCHARD.
UnIeas the "Omen Of Prevention" IL
Resorted To They May Do
Consi idersSie Damage.

Young orchard trees are almost as
likely 10 be injured by mice in some
parts of the country as by rabbits IN
other places. Sometimes when the
snow goes off in the spring, it i
found that many trees have had
their bark more or less Enawed off by
mice. The injury extends from three
10 six inches above the ground and
may entirely encircle the trunk. II
the trees are small and have been
completely girdled. there is little
hope Of saving them. especially if
wide strip Of BARK has been entirely
removed. With larger trees or small
er injuries. much can be done 10 re
pair The damage. if the injured wood
is not allowed TO become dry. The
wound should be Immediately COW
cred with grating wax or a thick
of earth heaped up aroun' i. If the
wound is not too large. il VIII in time
be covered by a new growth Of bark.
High manuring and requent cultiya
tion will hasten this process Of re-
pairing the injury.
IN this ease, as in all others, "an
ounce Of prevention is worth pound
Of cure" An orchard should never
be planted in sod, as the surrounding
grass and weeds greatly increase the
danger from mice. II mice are
known 10 be in the orchard. the
trunks may be covered for "a distance
of 20 inches from the ground with
wire mosquito netting, or with thin
wooden yeneers, thus at'Ording pro-
lection against rabbits and other
pests also. II this has not been done.
/ the danger may be greatly lessened
by tyamping the snow down hard
around the trees after each storm.

the tops of the three-corncred pieces.
\ piece of clapboard I'D three feet
long. was sharpened nearly to point
on the thin side and nailed diagonal
ly to the side of the cight-foot board,
thin edge down, so that the point of
the clapboard would be about 20
inches above the center of the lath.
If the lower edge of the board is
straight and placed in level posi-
ton the line will hang at right angles
with it. Have the edge of the lath
planed. Take sharp pencil and
mark each side of the line and cut
a notch on the lath. To illustrate the
use of the device, when the board is
level, If two-inch block is put under
one end and a moth cut behind the
line, the plumb line will indicate the
grade and the operator will get a
two inch fall for every eight feet,
eight feet being the length of the
board"

\ new mark is set in the record of
amazing crimes by George Nelk, of
Germantown. Pa.
who it is alleged
according to the
New York ! World, murdered his
mother TO get her hard-earned saw
ings, and>.Shot left by her bruised
body tte-pencilled note: Il have
$1,000 and l am going out to have a
good time. Then ! will kill myself"
Vicious and dissipated as he has been,
Nelk is probably not bad enough to
carry out his intention. 4 good
time cannot be based upon murder.
The nearest approach TO it which is
possible to the matricide is to use
little of the stolen money 10 buy
drink enough TO drug himself into
insensibility, so that he may be un-
conscious of times passage, good or
bad. And the inevitable awakening
to suicide or To capture or TO the
gnawings Of remOrse-must bring
suffering almost too great for human
endurance. The murder Of II patient
and loving mother for n few hours
Of drunken debauchery-whnt IA price

Since the Missouri girl ran up against
a maverick in the way of a bogus Eng
lish lord, the legislature Of that glori-
GUS commonwealth has awakened to a
sense Of its responsibilities, and is con-
sideriug a bill providing for the tax
alton, branding and licensing of for
,ign lords and noblemen." AS a rule,
the genuine lord does not get so far
west as Missouri, for he is snapped up
soon aftcr he arrives in America; still,
observes Roswell Field in the Chicago
Post, to provide against accidents, the
law should be passed. 1T is the very
general feminine opinion that it is
better that % innocent girls should suf-
fer, than that one sure-enough lord
