Cleaning the City
Park.

With commcndable spirit the
baseball and high school boys
have lately devoted considerable
time to cleaning and leveling the
sporting grounds of the city park.
a good job has been done. The
ball ground was never in better
shape and small race track has
been added to the attractions.
Now that the boys have led
out in fixing up the ball grounds
something should be at once done
toward cleaning up the park in
the grove and surrounding the
pavilion. The present state is a
general disgrace. But we cannot
believe it will remain so long, for
the spirit of pride and cleanliness
is too strong in the community
for such to be the case.

!. AN EMBEzZLING ELEPHANT.


The vicious system of graft has
crept even into the animal world, and
corrupted resident of the New York
Geological Park. Gunda, the elephant,
Is the guilty party. He has hitherto
been considered a most respectable anu
upright member of society. A writer
in the New York Tribune tells the sor-
ry tale. Gunda's many visitors have
been in the habit of presenting pennies
to Jack Gleason, the keeper, which he
would place on the floor of the ele-
phant house.
Gunda would then pick up these
coins with his trunk and deposit them
In small box above his head, and
would ring bell to register the
amount Of the deposit. Lately the
business has become very heavy, owing
to the thousands Of visitors, and Glea-
son decided to go over the books" and
figure out his exact receipts.
The result is that Gunda Is In dis
grace, and will be made the subject OF
an official investigation by the side Of
which the late prosecution Of bank
and insurance CRATER will look tame.
The details of the defaulting Gunda
are as follows:
Gunda certainly deposited the pen
nles in the box and as certainly rang
the bell, but thereafter his ways be-
came dark and devious. No sooner
was Gleason's back turned than he
would pick them out with his trunk
and put them into his mouth. When
visitor appeared Gunda would put a
cent on the floor and 60 through the
form Of dropping 1t in again, and ring
the bell.
Gleason sought to stop the fraud by
driving small staples into the bottom
Of the box, SO that the penny could
drop between them. This presented no
difficulties to Gunda, who simply elon-
gathed the tip of his trunk and pulled
the cent out Then long nails, which
acted as a barrier, were put in in place
Of the staples.
But still the receipts and the regis
ter did not agree. One day Gleason,
turning Unexpectedly, caught the ele-
phant in the act of reaching TO the top
Of the partition wall with his trunk.
Gunda, on seeing he was discovered,
affected an air of easy nonchalance,
which, however, did not deceive his
keeper, who climbed to the top Of the
wall. The mystery was solved. There
lay pennies, old and new, In luxurious
profuslon, and Gunda hung his head
and sulked.

Try to smussle Jewelry.

To prevent smuggling by tourists, an
evil said to be growing, jewelers. in
this city and elsewhere will ask the
Treasury Department officials to take a
new attitude son the subject. The
practice has been to bring proceedings
to forfeit the smuggled articles and
sometimes compromise is effected per-
mitting the tourist to keep the jewelry
on payment of the actual duties. The
jewelers. say that tourists who smuggle
should be prosecuted criminally.
The situation Is said to invite SNUG
Cling, since detection usually means
nothing more than payment of duties
which should be paid anyway ,and
there is the chance of getting through
without paying anything. The I'm
porters and Cutters Association reports
from abroad indicate that duties are
paid on only an Insignificant part OF
the jewelry which Americans buy
abroad and bring back to New York.
According to prominent jewelers. here
the smuggling of jewelry has become a
fad of tourists who take greater and
greater pride In their skill In deceiving
the customs inspectors.
Several fine necklaces and brooches
of pearls and diamonds are said to
have been exhibited lately to jewelers.
In this city for valuation and owners
found to their surprise that the arti-
cles could be duplicated here for much
less than the prices paid abroad. Jew
elers are convinced that these Jewels
have been smuggled. The explanation
given by the jewelers. Is that they can
buy abroad at bottom prices and even
with the duties and a fair profit added
the total Is below what tourists eager
to "beat the government" are ready to
pay.-New York Times.

Cathedral for Sale.

The Amsterdam correspondent of
the London Pail Mall Gazette writes
to his paper of remarkable proposal
that Is being made by the Protestant
community of Utrecht that they should
sell to the Catholics the ancient ca
thedral of the city, which is described
as the largest Gothic historical build
Ing in the Netherlands, The idea was
first mooted, oddly enough, by one of
the Protestant pastors, Mynheer Gun
ming, who Is regarded as the leader
of the Protestant body in Utrecht. His
grounds for making the proposal are
strictly utilitarian. He estimates that
the buildings would realize a million
forms, with which sum 1t would be
possible to build Ave new churches.

should perhaps be explained that the

PICTURESQUE DRESS.
Worn by Native Women tn gsthmus
of Tehuantepec.

Worn by Native Women I'm Isthmus
of Tehuantepec.
1t is believed that many American
and European tourists will be attract
ed to the Isthmus of Tehuantepec as
soon as they learn that the National
Tehuantepec railroad has been complet-
ed and opened for traffic and regular
steamship service has been established
between Coatzacoalcos and United
States and European ports, and be-
tween the Pacific coast terminal, Salina
Cruz and San Francisco, says the New
York Tribune The Isthmus Of Te-
huantepec has heretofore been so far
removed from through lines Of travel
that comparatively few pleasure seek
ers have visited It. In its winter ell
mate the lsthmus is unexcelled. The
air Is bracing and refreshing. Even In
summer the heat is not oppressive, and
at Santa Lucrecia, where an altitude
of several hundred feet Is reached,
there are all of the comforts that are
to be found at most summer resorts in
the United States. In order to accom-
modate visitors large hotels have been
provided at Coatzacoalcos, Santa Lu-
crecia, Sallna Cruz and other places
along the llne of railroad.
There are many interesting things to
be seen on the lsthmus. not the least
OF which are the native Tehuanas or
Indian women. They wear peculiar
dress that is to be seen in no other
part of Mexico 1t Is called the Huipll
dress. 1t consists Of short cape,
made of white or colored muslin, with
a deep lace border of white or the pal
est lavender. a lace collar, short sleeves,
with long ruffies; short muslin jacket
of some bright color, with low neck aud
short sleeves, and pettlcoat which Is
simply an oblong piece of crimson or
dark blue cotton cloth, wound around
the loins, where It Is confined by a
sash, and reaching to the ankles. This
peculiar dress Is worn by every Tehuana
woman and child, without respect to
age or social position. 1t Is worn in
many different ways. according to the
occasion, and is always of the brightest
colors obtainable.

At Quimper, in Brittany, the wife Of
a man named lie Saux gave birth to a
boy. The father took the child and
sold 1t for f8 to the wife Of the local
butcher, Nine. Bonan. The woman pre-
sented it to her husband as her own
newly-born hasn't and Bonan fastened
to register the child's birth.
LIE Saux, fearing that he might get
into trouble with the police, next con.
suited the butcher, whom he supposed
to be party to the fraud. The duped
husband threw lie Saux out. of the
house. The latter then registered the
birth of his own child. In the eye Of
the law, therefore, the infant has
claims on two separate families and en-
joys the unique distinction of being
the son Of two mothers Paris News

Nrhmckeray,s Pantomime.

William Makepeace Thackeray was
always too genial, too generous, too
open handed, to be an accumulation of
this worlds goods, and in spite Of the
large earnings of his pen he died a
poor man. Shortly before his death bis

ed upon him and found him in his
study writing-writing and signing at
the monotony of his work.

scene Of brilllancy each morning
when the women gather to do their
trading. One Of the staple food pro-
ducts is the iguana. This animal Is
sold alive. 1t is foot or two long,
and in order to make 1t marketable its
mouth Is sewed up, to prevent 1t from
biting, and its legs are tied behind its
back. The Tehuanas are noted for
their cleanliness. The men are indo-
lent, of short stature and slight build.
They wear white linen shirts, with the
tails outside of the trousers. Men,
women and children go barefooted.
There are a number of American
planters on the isthmus Most of their
holdings are in the interior. These
plantations are principally devoted to
raising coffee and sugar.
AS a side trip the American tourist
may go over the new Pan-American
railroad, which now runs from San
Geronimo, a station on the National
Tehuantepec road, to within 100 miles
Of the Guatemala border. Considerable
progress has been made In the construc-
tion of this last 100 miles, and the
builders declare that In less than q
year the road will be finished to the
Guatemala border. Deer, wild hogs
and other game which are to be found
in tropical Mexico abound all along
the route. There are no restrictive
game laws, and the sportsman can hunt
and kill to his hearts desire. The surf
bathing at Salina Cruz, both winter
and summer, is excellent, and so Is the

was taken down very bad, and, his fam

But the family physician unexpect-

who have made competency In busi-

active work find themselves declining

aged persons the vital functions con-
tlnue in active exercise under normal
conditions, but If the regularity and
moderation of business life are depart
