II DOGS KILLED
Result of Campaign to Datc-OfiCcrs
Detailed Each Afternoon to Kill
Straw Ours.

Up to date this afternoon the officers
Of Salisbury have killed forty stray
dogs since the crusade against worth
less ours began last week. Each after
noon Chief Miller sends out a detail of
officers one of whom is armed with a
pistol and the other a shot gun. Where
ever a dog on which tax has not been
paid is found off the premises of its
owner it is killed.
The immediate cause Of this whole
sale slaughter Of CANNES is the ap-
pearance last week of a mad dog,
which bit a child.-Salisbury Post.

A Delicate Art.

To transfer an old oil painting to a new canvas Is branch ot art that calls for a unison of mechanical skill and talent. There are not many men In the business. It Is an entirely dis tinct work from renovatiug a cracked or mutilated painting. Transferring a painting from an old canvas to new one requires years of experience to ac- complish the simplest part of It. After the picture has been removed from itS frame several layers ot fine tissue pa per are pasted firmly across the sur. face. When the paper Is dry the back of the canvas Is made thoroughly wet. Thread by thread b iS picked away until nothing remains but the paint, which Is fast to the tissue paper, A new canvas Is then mounted and glued to the back of the picture. When the glue Is dry the tissue paper is mOls- tened and gently removed from the surface. A little cleaning and retouch- ing by a skilled hand make the work complete.

Man and His Secktie.

"Men's taste in neckties," says a New York haberdasher, 'is the most fickle thing imaginable. You can nev- CT be sure of 1t. It often happens that a scarf pattern which has tremendous run for a year or two Is reproduced after a few seasons, and no one wants to buy 1t. On the other hand. a de sign you could hardly give away this year may become the craze next year. Why, no one has ever been able to dis cover. One year men will revel in rcd scarfs and the next will have noth' ing but greens or blues or purples, Talk about women's taste in dress be- ing uncertain-man's Is more so. Out filters can only guess at 1t. Expert ence avails nothing"

How . Club Went out of Existence.
 Some years ago about dozen men at Oxford formed sort of marriage club" It was agreed that when any member was about to be married a dinner should be held which all within reach should attend-the bachelors tO pay. Marriage seemed far away then, and the bachelors thought the divided
 expenses would be inconSiderable. Years passed and now and again the announcement of another marriage was sent around. They met coming from various walks of hfe-soldier, barrister solicitor journalist school master, man about town and the rest sang the old songs, dug up the old jokes, until one year it happened that the final bachelor found himself sole host. A year later the difficulty arose, and the final bachelor was given his dinner by the eleven married men. And now the friends meet on the an uiversaries of their wedding days and pay each his own score. There Is per haps the ideal club.-LondOn Chronicle,

United States. The prominence OF
that newspaper in the field of journal
ism is due to the brain and pen Of its
noted editor, now dead.
AS an orator Father Cronin had no
superior and few, if any, equals in this
section of the country; as a writer he
occupied the highest pinnacle in that
profession. He was one of the Church's
ablest theologians and expounders of
canon law; most devout and pious
priest; a pure and lofty minded citi-
zen, a true friend-one of the great
men of his time. To record in a brief
space and with little time the accom-
plishments of Father Cronin is an i'm
possibility, and the years to come must
fix his place in the galaxy of great
men of this generation. 1t will cover
a wide field when we say that religion,
literature and craftsmanship have lost
an able leader.

Bishop McCabe says it is the duty Of
the Anglo-Saxon race to evangelize
the Latin race. says The Catholic
Standard and Times. This Bishop is a
Methodist, and the fact that he bears
an Irish patronymic does not weaken
but rather strengthens, his claim to
be an Anglo-Saxon and type Of the
highest Christianity, according to the
Anglo-Saxon ideal. It is the habit Of
the Anglo-Saxons to appropriate the
possessions of other peoples, even their
names occasionally. A Chichester took
the name and possessions Of the great
O'Neill and his descendants keep them
to this day. The Latin race ought to
be grateful to Bishop McCabe for his
kind and disinterested attention to
their interests. But they might very
properly remind him that in Philadel-
phia and New York, as disclosed by the
newspaper census takers, there are
people Of his own race-that is, If he
be really Anglo Saxon, as he claims
who are much more In need Of his
pious ministrations. and will bear a
great deal Of evangelization before they
become of any service either to God or
country.

The REAL ANARCHISTS.

In 1896 and for eight years there
AFTER a large section of the people OF
this country were called socialists and
anarchists for voting their convictions
and daring to criticise the financial
methods of those who directed certain
of the large financial interests of the
country. Many of us became so ac-
customed to the accusation that we
really at times began to believe that
we were unconscious enemies of our
country. The past year has developed
the other side of the picture. People
have learned that the real anarchists
are the financial anarchists. Such
men as Depew, Mccall, McCurdy and
Walsh, who in 1895 were advising the
people in paternal way as to their
duties of citizenship. Some of these
financial anarchists are now in a fair
way to go to prison. We hope that
people will be slower to take their
political opinions in the future from
those engaged in the promotion of
great financial enterprises. Develop
ments of the past six months show
who the real enemies of the country
are. The men who in 1896 either
directly or through paid agents in
structed their employees upon their
duties as citizens and threatened them
with loss of work in case Of the cleo
ton of Bryan are now found in many
cases to be the manipulators Of dis
honest and illegal schemes. What they
say in the future will have little in
fuence. Their power for evil will
hereafter be limited by the amount OF
cash that they are able to put into
the bribery fund. They will no long
er be able to pose as disinterested
leading citizens with the good Of the
country and the laboring classes at
heart.

what the foremost prelate in the

about the French situation.
In part his statement was as fol-
