1T is HONORABLE WORK.


Chief of Police Brown seems to
think that it is beneath his dignity to
supervise the cleaning up of the city
for the sake of protecting the health
of the people. Fire Chief Metz has not
hesitated to call upon many business
men and property owners for the pur-
pose of notifying them to clear their
premises of all combustible rubbish as
a safeguard against destructive fires
It would be no more numiliating for
the chief of police to order a general
cleaning up of the city under his su-
pervision for the sake of the public
health. Even so high a dignitary as
the surgeon general Of the United
States has taken charge of the work
of cleaning up New Orleans as
means of checking the spread of yet-
low fever. The police department of
the city can perform no better SER
vice than to aid in making Walla
Walla cleaner and healthier as we'll
as more orderly and law-abiding.

New Orleans stood among the first
cities of the country in general bust

bank clearings were very high, and a
good share Of the prosperity of the
south due to the rise in cotton found
reflection there. New Orleans is a
great export city and has not reached
her maximum in this respect by far,
to judge from the increase in the guam
tity Of grain moving out that way,
and from other signs.
She will rise out of the present trou-

will be unfortunate indeed if the les

VIGILANCE AND HEALTH.

From fever stricken New Orleans
there comes a story apparently so
improbable as to suggest the rise Of
southern rival for the famous lie Sueur
prevaricator, yet vouched for by a cor
respondent of reliability and put in
print in conservative newspapers of
the east. 1t is in effect that the in
spectors discovered full-grown COW
in the living rooms of a Sicilian fam
lily, on the third floor of a house in the
congested district. AS the building
was very dilapidated and the stair
way SO shaky as scarcely to sustain
the weight of two men, the inspectors
were at a loss to figure out how the
owner finally confessed that three
years before he had carried up a calf,
which had now become the COW.
While one might hesitate to accept
this story without some little allow
ance, it is a fact, nevertheless, that
in crowded tenement districts of large
cities, conditions are quick to devel-
% that are a menace to the general
health. Eternal vigilance on the part
IF the health officials is necessary, for
once it is relaxed, filth accumulates
nd disease increases. One has only
. glance into a chapter of one of
Jacob Riis' books on New York to
Understand what the budding to-
,~ather Of thousands Of people in un-
sanitary quarters means.
New Orleans is worse than New
York in that her climate is such that
conditions inimical to health are
v.,cre likaly to arise there. The pres
emf center Of injection is the Italian
,uarter. Here the inhabitants, many
scarcely yet AmeriCanizel at al, are
crowded together in dense masses.
The mosquito theory Of tie spread Of
the fever may be the correct one, but
all health authorities agree that Wnat-
ever the primary cause, or however 1t
may be handled, mosquitoes or no
mosquitoes, dirt and uusanitary con-
ditions facilitate it's work. The city
of Memphis learned the lesson of the
necessity for cleanliness when fever
swept it some thirty years ago, and
there has been no such severe visi-
tation since, thanks to the general
cleaning up that followed.
Much comment is made as to the
effect OF the fever upon the commerce

And thus, at the end of brilliant
career, Mr.. Sage finds himself rich,
in money. A lot of people will say he
should not have tried to make money,
but have turned mis- attention to max
ing friends. But you will notice these
advisers do not appear to man until
after he has gotten rich. 1t is merely
their envy. They try to make rich
man feel bad by abiding to the fact
that he will probably have to hire
mourners and make his own grave in
advance.
But they did not fool Russell. He
kept on getting his money and when
they told him he had enough he should
knock off and take a vacation, he was
on in a minute. The scoundrels wanted
the weight of his opinion to back up
the vacation system. But they did
not catch him. He wrote an inter-
view for one of the newspapers in
which he exposed the whole fraudu-
lent character of the vacation bust
ness and showed if the people who
worked for him had not had Sundays
off he would be worth $93,476 more
than he is today.

THE KAISER REBUFFED.

From all accounts the kaiser did not
make a hit in his interference with
the affairs of Norway. He made ov-
ertures to Sweden, Norway and Dem
mark in the interest of the Hohen-
zollern prince for the Norwegian
throne and was rebuffed at every
point. 1t was the ambition of Ho-
nenzollern to ascend the throne of
Spain which indirectly caused the
Franco-Prussian war, and this lat
est attempt to find good place for a
German princeling seems to have been
equally unpopular. The kaiser prob
ably does not care so much for the
election of a German as he fears the
GROWING of a king under English in
fluence. He was originally very much
opposed to the candidacy of Prince
Charles of Denmark because of his
English connections. The prince is a
son-in-law of the kaiser's uncles
King Edward VII, whom the Ger
man emperor both fears and hates
The settlement of the affairs of Nor
way bids fair to be brought about
without any interference from the

true that the kaiser has failed to mould
events there is no other strong enough
to undertake the job. This will be a
happy thing for the people of Norway.
If Norway wants a king she should
have one of her own choosing, not a

a grand result" Thus spoke DR.. Ed
ward F. Bigelow, the we'll known nat
ural scientist, in a lecture delivered

1.-The Audubon societies have done
much to bring home to American wo-
men the horror of wearing the al
grette," said DR.. Bigelow. Most wo-
men do not know that they are pur-
chased at the price of murder to the
mother bird, and also at the sacrifice
of the lives of ner young.
1.-The pfumage of the female heron
young in the swamps Of Florida.
Hunters, whose sole occupation is to
supply northern milliners with these
plumes, seek the bird when she leaves
ner nest in search of food for her
young, and literally slip from her
breast the tuft of feathers with the
skin attached, throwing her quivering
form to earth in the throes of death.
In the nest the young birds await the
return of the mother, who never
comes, and Of course, starve to death"
