The Judge was wearing a smile of

there is no doubt about this at

When the churches and church

good many married people who

Bear and Hunter.

Word comes by way of Cody, Wyo.

son, iuferenuaIly the Governments
regard for the feelings Of the bears,
the names OF the victims are withheld
and an effort is said 20 have been
made TO suppress knowledge OF the
incident. Coupled with the beIated
information is the statement that a
protest is 20 be made 10 the President
and authorization sought for a big
hunt TO reduce the number Of bears
in the park. There is considerable
significance in this suggestion.
Big game is getting scarce. In or

However, Notwithstanding his gentle

pressive rug. His claws and teeth
would ornament the den of the anna
teur sportsman. Thus, that it is de-
sirable that there be an open season
for this animal is clear enough TO all
who choose to take this view of the
matter.
One ambition that ever stirs the
savage breast Of the human biped is
that of killing something. There is
a passion for the slaughter of all that
is wild and free and happy. In earlier
days the traveller across the plains
used to shoot buffalo from the car
window for the JOY Of seeing them
fall When the buffalo had disappear
ed the antelope for a time AFFORDED
similar amusement, but the antelope
has vanished. too.
FOreseeing that all the big game OF
the country was likely to be EXTERN
mated, the Government instituted
certain preserves to be places Of ref
uge. Entering these. the traveller was
forced to abandon his gun, which
was 10 him much the same rs aban-
dOning hope. To see something alive

to butcher IL! Here was hardship

tragedy is true, there viii have to be

But the right is denied. He is Obliged
TO spend much on dress, on mere dis
play, and on the effort 10 give the
appearance OF ease on a plane of eX-
istence far beyond his means, The
social demands he must meet consti-
tute a serious drain of his resources.
He is not 70 blame for this. His SUI
periOrs are TO blame He is held to
requirements in the respects indicated
as rigid as any of the articles Of war.
The young man in civil life afraid
to marry on 81 500 a year would be a
umid and shrinking creature, but TO
do this ia the army requires courage.
AT the same time the officer who
elects to do it is insulted By the coun-
sci to consult even so resplendent a
military figure as General Corbin.
The army is sustained as a neces-
sary arm OF the Government. It's pur-
pose is not the maintenance Of social
form although there is not the slight
est objection to its social indulgences,
and there is the absolute requirement
that the officers be gentlemen That
they are such, and that exceptions are
extremely rare, viii be conceded. Yet
there is natural protest against both
the snObbery and the paternalism in
dicated in the Corbin suggestion.
The late Admiral Sampson prevent
ed the promotion TO the rank OF naval
officers of men who were in all re-
spects efficient save that they had not
been trained in social uiceues. The
attitude brought reprOach upon the
navy, and an exhibition OF similar
spirit in the army tends TO like result.

Collar That New Pound.

The activity of mind and breadth
OF plan which mark the present ad-
minisTation OF the District Health
ONCE is well illustrated in the esu-
mates for the next fiscal year. The
sum OF $4,000 IS asked beyond the or
binary allowances for the public
health service. and about $4,000 OF
that sum is desired to widen the Op-

which no decent dog need be ashamed.
As it is today, the District pound is
within the area Of three streets, is so
shabby and cheap in appearance that
no stranger would recognize it as a
governmental institution. and is so
poverty-stricken that 1t looks like the
backyard gymnasium Of some twelve
year old boy.
II is proposed to buy about four
acres OF ground, erect a modern
pound and a small stable. and re-lo-
cate the institution so that il can be
reached by delinquent tag-buyers
without loss Of half a days work.
The Health Omcer hopes also to pre-
vent annoyance TO those who live
near the pound by combining the dogs
so that their yelps may not be heard.
But he need not VOTE over that. If

For Her Honor.

The other day in New York an Ital-
Ian woman shot a man of her own
nationality. She was a faithful wife.
a tender mother, and he a vIlainous
brute who had been amply warned.
The woman had sought by every
means 70 avoid him, but with threat
and sneer he forced his attention
upon her. Finally he broke into her
apartment, where she had locked her
self as a protection against him. and
then she killed him. He got only that
which he deserved.
The woman was at once arrested.
