why should the Cat. Come Back.

Editor Washington Herald:
With reference to your editorial in Sat
urdays paper, / heartily agree with the
suggestion therein as to why should
the wrath of the authorities be visited
upon the useful and unobtrusive fOwl?'
Among the protected nUisanees in the
CITY OF Washington. there Is none worse
than the cat, which prOwls through all
the yards Of the neighbOrhOOd. ana IN the
house IL q door or window happens TO be
left open to admit Il little air, in addition
10 making night hideous with its bowls.
and yet a word is never said in regard 10
prohibiting cats. Is il because the wives
Of those IN power have their favorite
tabbies? The barking OF dogs has been
prohibited. as well as the growing OF
ROSTERS, and why should the good-for-
nothing cat be exempt?

Maryland may be classed as a doubtful
State. and it is near enough to New York
for a Maryland candidate 10 develop
strength in the Empire State. Moreover.
a candidate for a nearby State would not
be mixed up in the factional fights which
seem necessary TO the happiness of al
political parties in New York. One thing
only might be urged against Mr. Bona
parte He is not known to the country
az large This might be easily got
around. for the candidate indorsed by the
Roosevelt administration is likely to be
pretty well known Just as soon as the
cateclysm happens. Besides the name or

and antecedents were anything but desl--
able The American BonapaTtes how
ever. had everything in their favor. Il
will be recalled that the marriage Of
Jerome Bonaparte with Betsy Patterson
had always been upheld BY the Popes,
and the recognition OF ii would nave been
a strong card for Napoleon III with the
Catholic party in France. The fact that
Jerome Bonaparte and his two sons. the
late Col. Jerome BOnaParte and the pres

cans would have made them popular with
the Liberal and Republican element IN
France The late Col BOnaparte-be-

Dares Call Mrs. Browning Greater. Than
Her Husband I'm Pure Poetry.
This year Is the hundredth anniversary
OF the birth OF Elizabeth Barrett Browning;
who first saw the light March o, 1s0H.
One reason why the anniversary hunters
overlooked this fact, says the Bookmdn,
may be found in the fact that robert Brown
ing's hundredth anniversary does not
come until 1912, and possibly few persons
are aware that Mrs. Browning was six
years older than her husband.
II we were going to make q point OF CEN
tenaries we should certainly make more

was undoubtedly in pure poetry a greater
genius than he. His intellect was the
more powerful; but for sheer beauty OF
diction and for perfect music her finest
work rose above the level Of anything thet
he achieved.
Had she lone nothing more then her
aSonnets from the Portuguese she would
nave deserved this praise, since there is
no doubt that they remain quite unsur-
passed in English.
It is a pity that there exists no veracious,
unmodi6ed portrait Of Mrs. Browning.
She was extraordinarily fascinating, yet
10 feel her fascination one had to be near
her, to hear her voice and to watch the
play, Of expression upon her wonderfully
was not only far from beautiful, but was
almost uncanny in the strangeness Of her
appearance.
Julian Hawthorne, who "a a boy saw her
often at Casa Guidi in Florence. describes
her with ,ncompromising frankness as "a
miniature monstrosity.' He says:
There Was no body to her: only a mass
of dark curls and queer dark eyes, and an
enormous mouth, with thick lips. No
portrait Of her has dared to show the half
Of 1t. Her hand was like a birds claw
