THE GENTLE cow.

Behold the gentle lowing COW;
She giveth down her milk
That he who dilutes it for us
Nav buy a watered silk
For the adjoining OF his wife.
She hath tasselled tail,
Two curving horns her head adorns,
They milk her in. a pail
She hath no rudder like a ship;
Her udder is sack
Wherein the tactical juice is hid,
The farm boy breaks his, back
A-milSing her each night and morn
We have no wish to blk =,
The reader, but he really mllks
So hard he strains her milk
She hath knock-kneed calf each spring
Her master takes it hence
And sells it to the butcher man;
Then nights, across the fence
She hangs her head and moos and moos,
And moos and moos and moos!
We kill her when she's old for beef,
And use her hide for shoes.

On the day The Boy was eleven
years old he visited an artist friend
who likes boys. The artist enter
tanned him royalty. He gave him
gun and cigarette coupons worth

So the mother finally gave in. On
Saturday The Boy went down town
to exchange his coupons for a prize
When he came home the family was

Just Determination in Railway Rates.

Just Discrimination in Railway Rates.
All railroad men qualified to speak
on the subject in responsible way
are likely to agree with President Sam
uel Spencer, of the Southern Railway,
when he says: There is no division of
opinion as to the desirability of stop
ping all secret or unjustly discrimllia-
tory devices and practices OF whatso-
ever character"
Mr.. Spencer, in speaking Of unjust
~ discriminatory" rates and devices,
makes Il distinction which is ut once
apparent to common sense. There may
he discrimination in freight rates
which is just, reasonable and impera-
lively required by the complex com.
mercial and geographical conditions
with which expert rate makers have to
deal 70 abolish such open and honest
discrimination might paralyze the i'll
dustries of cities, States and whole Sec
tions of our national territory.
This distinction between just and
unjust discrimination is clearly recog-
nized in the conclusions of Tue Inter-
national Railway Congress, published
yesterday:
''TarilIs should be based on commercial
principles, taking into account the special
conditions which bear upon the commercial
value OF the services rendered. With the
reservation that rates shall be charged with
out arbitrary discrimination to all shippers
alike under like conditions. the making OF
rates should as tar rs possible have all the
elasticity necessary to permit the develop
ment Of the traffic and to produce the great
est results to the public and to the railroads
themselves.
The present proposal is, as Mr.. Walk
er d. Hines, of Louisville, showed in
his remarkable testimony the other
day before the Senate Committee at
Washington, to crystaize flexible and
Justly discriminatory rates into hXed
Government rates which cannot he
changed except by the Intervention OF
some Government tribunal, and by this
very process to increase "the tempta-
ton to depart from the published rate
and the lawful rate in order to meet
some overpowering and urgent com"
mercial condition."-New York sun.

MRS. TORTUR|C|
IS FREE AGAIN

Mrs. Rosa Torturici is free again.
The woman who is accused OF being an
accomplice of her husband in the hor-
rible murder of Biaggio Vilardo walk
ed from the prison yesterday with her
beautiful baby girl that half of the
women of San Francisco would want to
adopt If their eyes could rest upon it..
The pretty young mothers incarcer-
alton OF nearly two months had
brought a paleness to her cheeks and
a languor that seemed broken only
when she caressed the black-eyed
child she has kept with her in the
prison-the child whose eyes the
prison gloom could not keep from
dancing. Safe with friends a few
hours after her release, the young
woman's face was again wreathed in
smiles and she was very happy in the
thought that she would soon be with
her mother in far-away State.
Mrs. Torturici was released on her
own recognizance by Judge Lawlor
again. The police will keep a watch
to see that she does not try to leave
the city prematurely, of which, how
ever, they have no fear. She has been
given home by Mrs. Julia Vanni Of s
Prescott court, who knew her brother
and his wife and in that way became
acquainted with her upon her arrival
in this city two years ago. As soon as
her case is disposed of the Italian Mu-
tual Benevolent Society will send her
to her mother in New Orleans.
