SCALE THREATENS
TREES OF CITY
Chief Beauty of Plymouth Endangered
Strange Pest Attacks Shade Trees
Many Fear Lest 1t Spread Over En-
tire City.

Citizens Of Plymouth have observ.
ed a strange pest which is attacking
the maple trees of the city. No
one seems to understand this new
danger though many are alarmed
about it. Miss Nettie Slough was
the first person in the city to notice
the depredations Of the small enemy.
Since the harm done has been
pointed out our citizens are deeply
concerned about it and no one
knows as yet how widespread the
scale has become.
The pest is a small bug about the
size of young potatoe bug. 1t at
tacks the bark and makes the tree
bleed. The drippings Of sap may be
noticed on the sidewalks under the
trees infested One of the best
places to make observations yet
known OF is at the corner Of Michi-
gan and Sophia streets.
The State Horticultural has been
written to in regard to the matter
and his reply will be awaited with
interest. Indiana has recently es-
tablished a headquarters for its
forestry department and will prob
ably be able to give expert advice on
t;.is new uaie.r which tL-satens
one of the chief attractions of our
beautiful city. Mayor Cleveland has
expressed his willingness to take
such measures as seem advisable to
prevent the spread of the scale if it
can be proven that the pest is real
menace to the city's shade trees.

There is just now much agitation
OF the question Of fortifying the Pam

makers, or perhaps sentimentalists
are opposed to any step looking to-
ward military protection. Statesmen

are unable to see safety except in
fortresses and big guns Congress has
been memorialized by distinguished
men and women who made much of
the argument that the Suez Canal was
without fertilization and that mas
much as England had left this Canal
open and undefended, there was no
reason why the Panama Canal should
be fortified. This statement, however.
appears to have been presented with
out complete geographical or political
knowledge. a sum equal to the cost
OF the Panama Canal would not be
sufficient to fortify it as strongly as
the Suez Canal is fortified. The forti- =
"0a'ioh % tne canal begins on the
west Of Gibraltar, is continued at
Malta, at Cairo and Alexandria, and
on the east at Alden. In other words.
England has full and tight control Of
the Mediterranean at Gibraltar and Of,
the Red Sea at Alden. No enemy can
approach within hundreds Of miles
OF Seuz without accounting to Great
Britain. 1t is true that there are French
and Spanish and Turkish and Aus
trian ports on the Mediterranean or
connecting waters. but their naval
forces are insignificant as compared
TO the fleet that England constantly
maintains in what is substantially a
British lake.

Dogs and Children.

We have had another mad dog
scare md this time a rather serious
one.
A dog went mad in the city the
other day and bit four children, be-
sides biting a number of other dogs.
The parents of some of these chill
dren will have to stand the expense
Of sending them to Columbia to take
the Pastuer treatment as a precau-
ton against rabies. The parents of
some Of the other children were not
able to send them, but some tender
hearted citizens have offered to stand
this expense, which is much to their
credit
The expense, though, amounts to
nothing compared to the distress and
suffering, and the children them
selves.
And it could have been avoided If
we had simply had a little moral
courage. 1t could have been avoided
If we had had the courage to stop
dogs from running on the streets
without muzzles on.
We have law Of this nature on
the city statute books, but we
haven't got the courage to enforce
it. The police cannot be blamed, for
they know that if they were to start
out to enforce the law the owners<
of the dogs would arise in wrath
and would be able to exert sufficient
influence to have the policemen who
would dare shoot a dog removed from
office.
AS the matter now stands, it looks
as If We care more for our dogs;
than we do for our children. And it
is not at all to our credit. Anderson

FINGER NAIL ON NOSE.
Victim OF Operation Now Has His
Face Manicured.

There Is man somewhere In this
part Of the country who has a finger
nail growing on his nose, and he has
to manicure 1t often to avoid Icing
conspicuous.
This peculiar dilemma was told by
Johns Hopkins professor at a clinic
This man. some years ago, had a
lesh-and-tissue destroying trouble
that made necessary an operation
which Is now more or less common
The nose was cut away down to the
face, and the entire little finger on
one Of the mans hands was laid open
and bound to the spot the finger
bone scting as an artificial bridge
When the finger had grown into a
very presentable nose it was cut
away from the hand.
Not long afterward the man dis
covered something hard on the side of
his now nose and found that It was a
hngernail, progressing nicely, thank
you. The surgeon to whom he took
his trouble, by an oversight the matrix
of the fingernail was not cut away. He
offered to perform another operation.
but the man couldn't see it, and now
his fngernail on his nose demands at
tention just as regularly as those on
his hand.-Baltimore Sun.
