ARE we, here in Free ~ Amer
lea, to have censorship of the press
by the men in the postal depart
ment who are our hired servants?
Are publishers to be bound and
fretted with regulations so nu-
merous that the unconscious or in
advertant violation of one Of them
may subject us to the lash of the
law? Is the press too free and too
critical for our official guardians
who assume to direct the affairs OF
earth and yearn for the power of
despots? Let Congress curb their
Impotence rather than extend
their sphere of action. The new
law proposed by the Committee on
Postal Affairs ought to be damned

DESMOND, Chief of Detectives
for sixteen years, has been hon
ored with the "bounce" by the st.
Louis Folk-worshiping coterie now
in the saddle and squirting over
the corpses of the wicked them
selves have slain. The Chief, if
he was so simple as to rely upon
merit to keep him in place, is wiser
to-day. For thrift, he should have
bent the pregnant hinges of the
knee, as many shining lights have
done and are doing, with ecIat and
profit. His clean record and I'M
firing and intelligent service-why,
man, they are of old-time worth,
but wholly unnecessary to this
age of altitudinous p~retense and
fne-haired Miss-Nancying. But
maybe had better not say much
about the matter before hearing
the specific charge or charges
against the deposed; he may have
been guilty of smoking a cigar in
the privacy of his home, or have
cried out "d-n til" when the
hammer hit his thumb in lieu of
the carpet-tack in the turmoil of
fall house-cleaning. On reflection,
it is clearly correct that | with
draw the foregoing and await the
aftermath of development-or the
development of the aftermath

IT'S a long lane that has no
turning, and he who laughs to-
day may weep tomorrow. The
Genessee butter makers who
forced the outrageous law against
oleomargarine have had long and
profitable innings, but at last they
are to be made to endure the pains
and penalties they created for the
regulation of taeir neighbors. Ac-
cording to a especial" printed in
Mondays GIobe-Democra the worm
has turned. 1t says:
Oleomargarine manufacturers
are preparing to take revenge on
the creamery concerns for forcing
the passing of the antioleomarg-
arine bill in Congress. Under the
new pure food law manufacturers
are compelled to print formulas on
all packages of foods and drugs.
Creameries, generally, use color
ing matter in their butter and the
oleo makers will insist on the gov
eminent requiring creameries to
label their butter showing this. If
the creameries fail to comply with
the law to the very letter the cleo
makers will insist on prosecution.

It is only in comparatively modern
times that buttons have been utilized
as fasteners. The Greeks and Romans
knew nothing Of them. and though they
presented themselves as ornaments in
the fourteenth century buttonholes
were still an undreamed OF possibility
It was not until nearly the middle OF
the eighteenth century that the manu-
facture Of steel buttons was entered
unon at the Soho works in Birming-
ham. England. Then, on the accession
of George III. the gilt buttons appear

was reserved for the artisans of our
day to make these useful fasteners in

HEDGEAOGS.
Venom of the Most Poisonous Snakes
Does Not Affect Them.

Does Not Affect Them.
An Interesting fact about hedgehOgs
that perhaps not many persons know
is that the bites of even the most poi
sonOus serpentS have no effect on them
whatever. Mr. LenZ a naturalist, once
watched a fight between Il hedgehog
and Il viper and gives a most interest
ing dies cription of it. He says that
when the hedgehog came near the
snake she began to smell it, for the
sight of these animals is so poor that
they depend almost entirely on the
sense of SMELL and then she seized its
head with her teeth.
In a moment the snake had freed it
self and. darling at the hedgehog, bit
it several times, but the little animal
did not seem to mind the bites at all,
and when the snake was tired out with
its efforts she again seized its head,
which she ground beneath her teeth,
poisonous fangs and all. Then she de-
voured almost the whole of its body.
NJ. Lenz also tells of pet hedgehog
that he kept in his house in large
box Several times he put some adj
ders into the box, which the hedgehog
did not seem to fear at all, but at
tackled them tiercely and, as in the case
of the other, was never in the least af-
fected by their poisonous bites.
A man who had a pet hedgehog
in his possession for long time says
that he had often seen it throw itself
off the top of wall fourteen feet in
height Without pausing moment it
would contract itself into soft, fluffy
ball and fall to the ground so lightly
that almost Immediately it would I'M
fold itself and run off.-Chicago Chron-
icle.

SHOE NAILS.
The Way They Are Made and Why
They Are So Cheap.

The Way They Are Made and Why
They Are So Cheap.
Three million separate shoe nails are
often cast from one ton of metal. OF
the smaller sizes 1000 nails are mold
ed in. a single mold, and an expert
workman will make eighty molds in an
ordinary working day, thus turning out
100000 separate nails.
When the metal in a liquid state is
poured into the mold il runs through
the sand In passages provided in the
molding process; the whole Of the nails
are cast together and are. when re-
moved from the sand, connected by
network of iron one with another. In
this condition the iron is as brittle as
glass, and very little force is required
20 separate the nails from the network
which holds them together.
They then have to undergo the proc
ess known as annealing. They are
mixed up with hematite iron ore, which
IS in a powdered state, put into iron
pots, and placed in an annealing fur
mace, sort of kiln Here they remain
for some days, care being taken to so
regulate the heat to which they are
subjected that the iron will not be re-
