LORD 1ANsDowNE's CONFIDENCE.

When in addition to all this, it IS borne in mind
that there Is hardly a single European sovereign
who ts not insured in American life insurance COM
panies, it Will be admitted that the anolnted OF
the Lord in the Old World pay eloquent tribute
to the prosperity and the promise Of the United
States
So far is known Lord Lansdowne is the only
foreign statesman Of Importance portion Of
whose fortune invested in this country, and from
the list of the stockholders in the Northern Sc
curfties Company 1t appears that this nobleman
who as Foreign Minister, directs the international
policy of the British Empire, has 100000 or
his money embarked in this company alone. 1t
speaks volumes for his confidence not merely IN
the future of America, but also IN the permanenCe
of the friendly relations between the United States
and Great Britain Were the Foreign Minister Of
any other great power to be thus financially inter-
ested IN American enterprises it would doubtless
excite much comment and discussion. But the fact
Of his being an English statesman seems to render
Il quite natural. just natural indeed as it has
appeared that for the last eighteen months Of Mr.
Choate's tenure Of the American Embassy IN Lon
don ne should have made its headquarters at the
private residence on Carlton House Terrace OF Ar
thur Balfour the British Premier-his landlord.
s,ppose that It has been the first occasion Of an
American flag flying permanently from above the
house of a British Prime Minister.

THEY WOULDLIKE TO KNOW
FARMERS NORTHEAST OF TOWN
WONDERING AEOUT BRIDGE
County Court Promised One A Year
Ago But Seems to Have Forgotten
II Thus Far

The farmers northeast of town are
wondering why they have not got their
bridge across Coon Creek that the county
court promised them year or more ago.
1t will be remembered that IA petition
was presented TO the county court year
ago last spring asking for u bridge across
Coon creek at the Lang ford two miles
east and half Of mile north of this city,
The court said that the funds at their
disposal we're insufficient to build it
at that time but they would see that they
got the bridge sometime during the fall.
The petitioners acceIted the promise in
good faith expecting to see the bridge
built before the snow began TO fly. But
here it is more than Il year aud istill no
bridge nor are there any signs Of one to
be- seen, although new bridges are being
built at other places thoughout the
county.
The frequently in which this ford has
been too high to cross lately has made
the farmers in that vicinity anxious that
the court fulfil their promise and build
the bridge.
A delegation from this end of the
county is liable TO swoop down upon the
county court some OF these times with
their war paint on II they don't watch
out.

AMPUTATING LIONS TAIL
Pretty TiCkliSh Job Performed
At the Zoo in Chattanooga.

Chattanooga. Tenn, Jan, 9.-Amid
much excitene 1t at the Oxley Zoo this
morning an operation was performed
on William, an Swear old lion, the
largest animal at the place. A section
OF the hon s tail, six inches long, was
cut Oft.
lght men fought the hon for half
an hour before they could sundue him
and get HIM tied down. After the
ops ration had been begun the animal
freed one of his legs and made vicious
swipe at Dr.. W. M. Blackburn, the
veterinary who was doing the woIf,
and the heavy paw grazed the doctor =
face.
The lion contracted the habit of bit
ting his tail short time ago, and the
member became so sole that amputa.
tion was considered necessary to save
his life.
