7 HE -PEDpLERs ORDINANCE.

Doubtless it will be the opinion OF
| a considerable ajoritY Of their con
stituents, that the city council acted
wisely last night in refusing to rush
through the peddlers' license ordi
nance demanded by tae Retail Gro
| GERS Association Of Cairo. The fact
| that the ordinance comes on the eve
OF the beginning OF the new year is
of itself strongly against il. An ordl-
nance proposing to raise saloon
licenses WAS vetoed by Mayor Par
sons some years ago. because it had
been passed near the close of the
year and those who would have been
effected by it had not been given
sufficient notice to adjust themselves
to the proposed new conditions.
The ordinance now offered would
affect certainly is intended to affect
all the consr mers of necessaries OF
life in the city, because its purpose is
60 prohibit peddling OF such neoes-
saries and TO compel consumers H.
patFonize the grocers by depriyi9g
them OF the opportunity to natronize
hucksters and peddlers. Hence the
measure would he wide spread in its
effect and calls for careful consid
Grafton.
Some amendment TO the license or
dinance ought to be made no doubt
In the opinion OF Attorney Leek the
PRO sent ordinance Is of little or no
affect because OF the exemptions it
seeks to make The attorney declares
tEat no ordinance proposing 70 Inn
pose license upon peddlers is valid
II il discFiminates between the per
sons 10 be affected hence no ex-
cmBtions could be made even a.
favor Of farmers who produce tn
things they offer to peddle IN b S
opinicn is any peddlers' ordinance is
TO be effective it must prohibit all
persons from pedslling except they
pay license; and if the ordinance
proposed by the Grocers' association
is PASSED every farmer who comes T.
Cairo with load OF his own pre-
tlucs from his own farm must pay So
Tor the privilege Of selling his pro.
ducts to the consumers OF Cairo every

VIM. j. Bryan's Grandson Hid on
; Ship, and Was Lost for a While.
William J. Bryan's grandson, lit
tie Bryan Leavitt, gave the demo-
cratic leader a bad scare in New
York Wednesday. Mr.. Bryan had
gone to the pier to meet the steamer
Minnehaha, upon which Mrs. Bryan,
her daughter, Mrs. Ruth Leavitt,
and Mrs. Leavitt's two children were
returning from several months
visit in Europe. When the steamer
swung in at the pier Mr.. Bryan was
one of the first on board. He found
Mrs. Bryan and Mrs. Leavitt await
ing him on the upper deck. His
granddaughter, Ruth, also was
there, but little Bryan was nowhere
to be seen.
A search was made over the ship
from one end to the other, but was
not successful. Finally his mother
found him where he had hidden him
self under a berth in his mothers
state room. When he was drawn
out of his hiding place little Bryan
threw himself into his grandfather S
arms. and the big crowd which had
gathered on the deck watched the
meeting with enthusiastic apprecia-
ton.

How to Cure His PARROT.

A man in Boston has offered re-
ward of $50 for method of curing
his parrot of repeating profanity.
The bird will probably be fully cured
in the following manner: Grasp the
body firmly with one hand. With
the other hand gently but firmly turn
the head through twenty-three full
revolutions. Then move the hands
suddenly as far apart as possible.
Dispose of the results as common

HUMAN LOVE.
The One Joyous Impulse That Rules
the Whole Wide World.

The One Joyous Impulse That Rules
the Whole Wide World.
There lives somewhere in the
depths of every human heart the di
vine spark that we call love. 1t is
the voice of the universe slumbering
in its narrow cell to be awakened by
a whisper or to cry out in dear de-
sire and hear the echoing answer
from another soul. Without it life
would be a pale, relentless episode.
Without its quickenning force no
temples would be reared by human
hands, yet novels wherein it dwells
become more glorious than palaces.
Ambition, fame and fortune are ics
slaves. 1t chains the mind in sweet
Imprisonment, makes credulity a
guardian queen and lulls suspicion
to repose.
/ No censorship of right or wrong
can light the way of love. 1t walks
in pathways all its own. 1t laughs at
reason and dispels despair. 1t is the
| lisping word of children, the puzzle
of philosophers, the talisman of rul-
ers. 1t is the first and last of life
murmured at the cradle, cherished
at the grave 1t is the rainbow after
tears, the cure for every sorrow, the
, one joyous impulse that rules the
whole Worldwide MountfOrtt in

Evelyn Thaw stands is not clear Dan
O'Reilly, her attorney, declares that
she will, if asked, testify to her hus-

really speak in his favor is doubted
