Alderman Strong fusher said he was instructed by the committe to ask the Council to sppoint a special officer to assist Marshal Smith. if such was needed, stating that the Committe would bear the expense.
 Mayor Jackson stated he was opposed to the violations. not only of the prohibition lays but all laws. as to that; thai the administration needed the moral support of an good citizens; that too many were of the sort to cry out against evils but when called upon to taken an open stand and testify tn cases were afraid of losing patronage; that the policy of the administration was to proceed without hesitancy against all cases where sufficient evi- dence to convict was likely; that fl those interested in the enforcement of the Iavs woMd cooperate by lending their moral support much good could be done.
 Alderman Flora stated that he would do all in his power to aid in law enforcement and would contribute to the expense.
 Alderman Fort said he wanted the people to know where he stood: did not beIeiye in over-ridinR any law; wossId contribute to the fund.

Queens Gift Did Her No Good.

From the Kansas City Star.
There are many stories told of the Queen
of Italy's acts of kindness to her poor sub
jects. The following, however. shows that
even the good intentions of queens are not
always fulfilled. Her majesty recently no
ticed pleasant-faced little girl and the
queen spoke to her. There was Il short
conversation and the queen asked the child
what she could do in the way of needlework
II can knit stockings, signora," replied the
girl. DO you know who 1 am?" continued
the queen. Yes, signora; you are the
queen Well then. make me a pair OF
stockings and send them to the palace" A
few days afterward the articles arrived and
the queen, IN return for the gift sent the
child u beautiful pair of silk stockings, one
filed with sweets, the other containing
money. Next day the queen received a let
ter from her little friend as follows: Sig
pora. your gift has caused me many tears.
My father took the money, my big brother
took the sweets. and as for the stockings.

Though Mars is thus nicely visible for an
hour or two after sunset, 1t is each evening
drawing further away from the earth, and
Is therefore growing fainter. If examined
with small telescope it will appear very
far from round, as in Figure 2. Possibly the
bright little snow cap may be seen and a
few of the larger markings. but the planet
is too far away for the fainter details to be
visible 1t will be remembered that Mars
is more nearly like the earth than any OF
the other planets. Yet it is much smaller;
its diameter is only about half that of the
earth. On this account its attraction to-
bodies on its surface Is much less. A man
