A 2s-PoUND CAT.

Tip, a giant cat, owned by Mrs. o.
F, Duncan of this city, is said to be
the largest cat in the United States
and Canada. Tip is closely followed
in the race for weight honors by his
brother, Tot, who weighs 90 pounds,
three pounds less than the other cat.
The cats are eight years old. Tip is
80 inches long from the tip of his
nose to the end of his tail and his
neck is 512 incres in circumference.
Every day each cat consumes 11@
pounds Of round steal and a pint Of
milk. How the cats came to grow
so large is mystery even TO the
owner. She said they had received
the same care as other animals of
this kind.-South Bend Cor. Indi-

GOOD TIP ABOUT CHECKS
Writing Out the Stub First 10 Easy
and May Avert Much
Trouble.

The West side woman was paying
with a check for some articles she
had bought at department store,
and she was carefully filling in the
stub Of her check book first. ooh,
don't stop for that" urged her shop
ping companion, who was in hurry,
"you can do that when you get
home" Unmoved, the West side
woman finished the stab with special
care, then wrote the check, gave it to
the salesman and said to her impa-
tient friend: Before | was married
l took care of some Of my fathers ac-
counts. The first time he ever asked
me to fill out a set Of blank checks
for him so he could sign them he told
me: One rule you must always OBJ
serve: Write the stub first. Make
vow to yourself like unto the vow of
Jephtha that you will never write
check until the stub is filed. If for
any reason you should fail later to
write the check it would be a simple
matter to cancel the stub, but if you
write a check and leave the stub
blank you open the, door to hun
bred chances of mistake. No ones
memory can be trusted on that sub
ject. Never try to trust yours. Let
the law Of "the stub first be to you as
the law of the Modes and Persians.
| have always found it perfectly easy
to fol-, that rule and that is one
reason | have bank account today.
My husband is never afraid l will
make him any trouble with it."

With considerable chagrin the ar

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.

Repre- sentative McHenry, OF Penn
sylyania, has introduced in The House
an amendment TO the code which il
enacted into law would abolish hang.
ing in the District Of Columbia. Mr..
McHeury proposes that the law shall be
as follows:
The punishment OF murder in the
first degree shall be imprisonment for
life. The punishment Of murder in the
second degree shall be Imprisonment
for life, or for not less than twenty
years.
Mr.. McHenry's action was superin-
luced by the hue and cry which has
been raised over the fact that 4 negro
murderess has, according to law, been
sentenced to be hanged in Washington.
Attention has heretofore been called
to the fact that an innocent white
woman was sentenced to be hanged in
Washington in 1865, and the mandate
was carried out the morning following
the return OF the verdict against her.
The President OF the United States re-
fused to be seen by the distressed
daughter OF the victim OF judicial MUIR
der, the door OF the White House be-
ing guarded by the then collector Of
the port OF New York. This mans
body was later found floating in the
Hudson river. 1t is supposed he COM
mitted suicide.
Certain people, for reasons best
known to themselves, have ever posed
as wiser than the Creator, and dreamed
that capital punishment is q relic OF a
barbarous age, but wherever it has been
abolished heinous crimes have followed
and in most cases legislatures have
been compelled to re-enact the law.
When Noah came out of the ark, be-
fore there was Jew or Gentle, and this
patriarch stood as the representative Of
the human race, it was decreed that
ahosoeyer sheddeth mans blood, by
man shall his blood be shed. There is
as much need Of the law nov as in the
days OF the antedeluvians, when We are
told violence filed the earth.

BRUTAL TREATMENT BY A MOB,


Either death or blindness in both
eyes is facing Michael Hellman, Of
Fredericksburg, Ohio, as result OF
brutal treatment given him Tuesday
night by band OF 20 men and women
disguised as whitecaps. The authori-
ties are awaiting the outcome before
making arrests.
HeIlmas, as was previously stated in
the Gazette, was taken from his home
stripped OF his clothing, dashed With .
whip until bis flesh was raw, and then
successive coatings Of a carbolic acid
solution, red pepper, hot tar aud
feathers were applied to his bruised
flesh. The red pepper vas also throyn
into his eyes.
In this condition he was ridden on a
rail and finally turned loose with orders
to run, For ten m les he ran az fast
as lie could, screaming 10 agony, and
then fell unconscious near Fredcricks-
burg, where ne was picked up and
brought to physicians office.
The niobbing was brought about be-
cause OF his alleged relations with a
Mrs. Rebecca Volk, the mother OF
seven children. :,

the aftermath OF 1t today, when
King George and his Queen appeared
on the streets OF London in their
state carriage for the purpose OF allow
ing their subjects an opportunity to
gaze upon royalty, fell far short OF the
expectations OF those having the af.
fair in charge London has tre-

both OF which democratic measures ii
had been planned 10 smother in the

yestige Of control torn from their grasp
the regular republicans are apparently
in complete ront and the once impreg-
nable, all powerful machine that DOM
mated the Senate and ran the country
is on the rorks. Lcaderless and demon
allied, its diSiu.egration is painful, but
even nominal control has gone from it..
l. was the greatest victory for the
people that has been won i'll Congress
since the claw; Of Cannon were clipped

is full OF significance for the future. 1t

can party is the White House. There SITS
their president, unsupported by either
faction and undesircd by both. He is
president without party and about
the only thing upon which The stand.
pat and lnsurgent leaders are in accord
is the conviction that he will not be
president after March 4, 1913. His

PROPHET SMITH TO AppE.,

The Ha-dwick sugar investigating
committee yesterday received notifca-
zion that p oohet Joseph I. Smith,
head Of the Mormon Church, had
finally decided to come before the
committee for examination without
compelling the committee to serve
him with summons, and that lie is
already en- route TO Washington.
Scarcely had this word been re-
ceived btforc the committee called
Thomas r. Cutler, former bishop OF
the Mormon Church, now vice. pres.
dent and general manager OF the
Utah Idaho Sugar Company, and be-
gan examining him closely as to the
relation OF .hi, company with the
American Sugar Refining Company
and the Mormon Church.
1t became apparent that this, the
largest Of the western beet sugar COM
panies, was controlled almost equally
by the trust and the Mo.mo Church,
with perhaps little OF the best Of it
for the trust. Cutler testified that OF
the SlO,000,000 worth OF shares OF
the company S4,650,50 was owned
by the American company, 1921 740
by the estate OF the late sugar king
II. 0. Havemeyer; $49S $50 by
Joseph R. Smith, in trust for the
Mormon Church, and the remainder
by persons connected with the church
chiefly in an official capacity.

The boom OF Speaker Chimp CLARK

ceptiou entirely in the halls of Con'
gress, since it seems 70 have met an III
different reception in the country at
large. Net that Mr. CLARK is not great
~ admired in Virginia, nor that his
nomination would not be received with
pleasure, but he is hardly regarded as
presidential probability at this stage Of
the game.
As to Mr.. Bryan himself. the situa
ton is little peculiar. These who re
gard his nomination as possibility are
rs rule those who oppose him. His
friends for the NEST part do not thlnF

many Of them hope that this will he the
outcome.
President TAFT may rest assured thai
he will be the favored candidate amous

have by 10 means made themselves
conspi, pus. There are f&e.ions within

ception in far different motives from
