Keep the Zoo.

Editor The Evening Journal.
"Humanitas" writing to the
editor Of a local paper about the
Zoo declares it is a nightmare to him,
advises the managers to free the birds
and restore the animals to their native
haunts That sound all very well but
in my humble opinion the subject is
too far drawn. Free the birds and
they would not know what TO do with
themselves They would undoubtedly
return to their cages Restore the
animals to their native haunts and they
would die within "A few weeks. Few II
any of the birds or animals I'm the local
Zoo were captured i'm their native
country or surroundings. They have
nearly all been born in captivity and
as they are treated well and enjoy life
according to their limited freedom
there is no reason to waste too much
sympathy on them. The animals are
happy they furnish amusement for
thousands Of children of the city and
the managers of the Zoo should be con-
graduated for the manner in which
they have struggled to maintain this
park against such big odds. The
beauty of the park is not spoiled and
the odors are not so strong as to be
offensive except to those with nasal
fixtures like "Humanitas."
Respectfully yours.
Zoo Lover.

A. Dangerous Nuissncs.

Editor The Evening journal
Permit me to call the attention Of the
police to a dangerous nuisance which
has been tolerated IN the streets Of
wilmington for several years. refer
to the driving of cattle through the
streets during the day. Recently / was
walking down Tatnall street and sud-
denly / saw three big bulls being
driven by three colored men. None Of
he animals were tied and they were
running from one side Of the street to
the other The little children ana
pedestrians ran from the track Of the
animals and sought shelter in the door
ways. The drivers Of the cattle only
laughed at the fears Of the people and
they began to chase the bulls at a
glllop. This occurred about noon the
other day when the streets were
crowded with men going and coming
from work. The bulls were full grown
snd their long horns caused excitement
wherever they went This is a danger
GUS practice for the livestock men to
allow to continue. The lives of men
women and children are placed In
danger when these animals are per-
mitted TO be driven through the streets
during the day The police should take
some action in the matter
Yours truly.

OF COURSE THEY ARE AGAINST HIM.

r ROM present indications the Democratic
4 nomination is not to be presented to Will
liam Randolph Hearst on silver platter. If he
gets that coveted prize, he viii have to fight for
it. Politically we differ from Hearst but we
can see very plainly wherein. he has erred. He
has been giving some of those financial pirates
over there in New York deal Of trouble He
was instrumental in blocking the Ramapo water
steal and in checking the eNtortion OF the Temple
Iron Company, or Coal Trust. He has exposed
numerous schemes OF the franchise grabbers and
during the last city election turned on the light
on Tammany's translucent methods. He has
given literally out of his wealth in aid OF many
deserving objects-though some would perhaps
attribute this TO uterior motives. In short Hearst
has been doing things. and in this respect at
least, he differs from many of his Democratic
enemies, OF the Murphy Belmont Taggart-R Ryan
class, who devote much of their time in doing
the people.

SAFEGUARDING HEALTH.

= VERY precaution should be taken to make
H. Wlmngton.a healthy city. At present it
malsosa fairly goodshowi in this respect, though
thcreisyetmuch room for improvement. Thcre=are
cities, approximating ours in population, which
have a lower death rate than we have-ior eX-
ample, Camden Reading, Hartford. Dayton has
a death rate OF 3S as against our average OF 49,
II the Board OF health keeps up in its good
work there is ground for hoping that Wilmington
will move far toward the head OF the list The
Board is now considering certain proposed quar-
antinc regulations. which, in the main seem de-
sirablc. 1t might, perhaps, be well TO make some
slil hit notifications in them before they arc
finally adopted.
The second paragraph provides I'm case OF
diptheria. membraneous Group or diptheretc
Group, quarantine shall noa be lifted or the card
removed from the house until IA days have
elapsed after the disappearance OF all the dipther-
etic membrancc or exudate'-with the qualifca-
ton that il the members OF the family desire the
quarantine removed earlier they may state to
the secretary, and THE Presiuent of the Board
of Health shall then designate some physician
other than the attending physician OF such case
to make two examinations. These examinations
proving satisfactory, the quarantine may be re-
moved at once. "The cost of these examinations
is to be paid by the patient or the patients
family"
Why not raise the quarantine, upon the filing
OF a proper certificate by the attending physician,
and thus do away with that feature requiring an
additional physician? An amendment OF this
nature would save the cost of the two examna-
tions, whatever the costs might happen to be-
Naturally physician competent to attend the
patient in the first instance and bring about his
recovery, would be able to say when the dis
ease had dsappeared-so that there would seem
to be no urgent need Of imposing this extra cost
upon the patient his family

On the whole the great holiday passed off
sanely and sensibly. There were not many acci-
dents in the city, thanks to the fact that the
deadly dynamite cracker has gone on what we
hope is long vacation. There was enough noise
however and the young folks should be satisfied
and their elders thankful that there was no larger
list of mshaps. In many parts of the country
the orators had full swing and the usual Fourth
OF July advice poured out of hundreds of mouths.
The advice is well worth following. We are a
great and prosperous and growing nation. We
have some evils, to be sure but the American
people are arising to the emergencies and we
shall have as a nation a clean bill OF health.

Object to the Color.

Editor The Evening Journal
do not know who selected the color the
City Han is now being painted but It is
the worst color that could be put on the
old structure. There is nothing ornamental
about it. II makes the build ny dec ded'y
ugly and when the dust begins to settle
on 1t and he absorbed by the paint 1t will
look worse. White or cream IS too lurld
for the City Han building and those do
ing the work or who are in charge should
have chosen some color more in keeping
with the building itself. its location and
the general effect Of its sirrourdings.

ARTICLES TAKEN
FROM TRUNK


5. II. Fletcher, contractor, has-sIis-
covered the loss Of some yaiuables
from a trunk, which he left al the
Deison hotel Mr.. Fletcher came
here from McKeesporf, Pa. before
Christmas, and stopped at the Dei-
son house. He remained a guest
there awhile and went away on busii-
ness, but paid ms board before lie
went. He had occupied room on
the second story Of the hotel. and
when he left, his trunk was placed
in room 2 ON the first floor Of the
hotel, where it remained until this
week, when he returned to the hotel
for it andstook it to Mrs. McCauley s
on East Pike street, where he is
boarding. He needed an oyercoat
and opened the trunk to get the $50
new one he had placed in the trunk,
but found il gone. InSaddition a
bank book ON the Buclhannon bank
and also a check book on the same
bank were missing, and a NJ. a, w,
badge had been taken from a cap.
1t then dawned upon his that he had
been robbed. When he left the
trunk at the hotel it was locked and
strapped, and when he went after it,
| it was locked but unstrapped. is
evident some one opened the trunk
and stole the articles, while the trunk
remained in storage at the hotel.
The authorities have been notified.
but there is little prospect Of appre-
hending the robber.

GRIFFIN APPEAL
AGAIN REFUSED

The Fairmont Goal Company has
again won in the damage suit
against it of Leander Griffin, of En-
terprise. The Supreme Court Of
Appeals has refused to grant Crit
fin a re-hearing of the case which
now stands against the plaintiff ac-
cording to Judge John w. Masopis
decision which Judge Of the circuit
court here,
The coal company removed the
coal from under Grifiin's land ac-
cording to contract and as no sup
ports were left the surface cayed in.
Because of this Griffin sued for
damages and Judge Mason held that
the mining company was not COM
PEELED TO leave supports except where
specifically provided in the contract.
The case went TO the Supreme Court
md Judge Mason was affirmed.
A few weeks ago Griffin's attorneys
qgain petitioned the Supreme Court
and asked for a re-hearing Of the
case. The court refused to grant
the petition.

The Grafton papers quote A. J.
Wilkinson, the Democratic boss
there, as making an appeal for the
granting of liquor license, and fur
ther quote him as saying that it takes
money TO run a town, and unless
liquor license carries or unless the
tax levy is raised, up go the water
rents. This speech was made by
Mr.. Wilkinson as chairman of the
Democratic convention to nominate
municipal candidates at Grafton on
Tuesday night. 1t is quite plain
that Grafton Democracy is far from
Prohibition, and the incident EN-
phasizes what Democracy would do
to Prohibition principles, had it but
the chance.

Resulting from the big pay of the
coal companies last Saturday, there
have been a good many miners and
other employees Of the companies on
the streets here. Some who are
blinded to all sense of honesty have
referred to them as hoboes, tramps,
thugs and the like, though they have
been peaceable and quiet. 1t is
easy enough to see the motive. Some
IRE afraid they might become citi-
zens Of this place and vote at the fall
election. Some people are so sus-
pieious they can not see real things.
Some are so suspecting- that they
can not really see honesty in Others.
