PREVIOUS AND DEVIOUS.

The plan to give Chicago a new charter isn't the only thing that fiz- zled the other day. Mayor Busse was, or appeared to be strenuously in favor of the new charter. So strenu- ously that this is what he said; If these methods (of opposition to the charter) are continued, and If because of them the charter is defeated, I think that all the saloons of the city will be closed the Sunday after Sep- tember r, and think they will re- main closed for three years and eight months, I do not wish to be under stood as making threats but if the sa- ldbns of this city have come to the opinion that they can run the city 1t Is time to restrict their power.
 We do not know whether the saloons of Chicago run the city, but the new charter was voted down. And this is what Mayor Busse said after the vote had been counted: My position on the Sunday closing of saloons is well known. Before I was elected said that would not close the saloons on Sunday. That is exactly my position now. While I am mayor the saloons will not be closed by me.
 This is saddening specimen of be- fore and after. Mayor Busse should learn from this incident. If he hadn't been previous he wouldn't have felt obliged to be devious.

NOT THE USUAL THING.

Formerly when a professional hu- morist couldn't think up anything to earn two dollars with he would fall back on the feet of the women of Chi cago, sure that they would hold him and enable him to hold on. Lately lit- tie has been heard about the grandeur of those feet, though last year we read that marriage ceremony was scheduled for certain day in Chica- go, but at the last minute 1t was found necessary to postpone the happy event because the bride could not find a pair of shoes big enough for her. But there is nothing of that kind this year. Instead there is the announce ment that twenty applicants for places on the police force of Chicago have been rejected because their feet are too large.
 Of course this doesn't indicate much. Perhaps the feet of the women of Chicago are still big and they may even be bigger than the feet of the men. But when the feet of men get too big to allow them to be policemen they must be pretty big. Perhaps if the men of big feet in Chicago are not not thought worthy to pound the pavements as policemen, worthy and useful places may be found for them in the street department They might there efficiently pound pavements with their big feet.

 So we haven't got to change rich as Croesus" to rich as Rockefeller" :" But wasn't Adam the real rich man of the world, when he owned the whole world? He doesn't seem to have been smart enough to hang onto it, and there are other indications that he wasn't very smart. Perhaps the richest men since his time haven't been the smartest men.

 Professor Peters, of the United States naval observatory, maintains that sun spots diminish the heat we receive from the. sun, but the ter- restrial effect is too slight to be per- ceptible.

 Just about 130,00O,00O pounds of tal- low, according to the calculation of one of the best-informed manufactur- CTS of Chicago, are consumed every year In the candle factories of the United States.
