Kind Until Rodents Began to
Steal Bread.

New York.-Animals and birds in
search of charity need not apply to
Hattie, an elephant in the menagerie
in Central Park, for aid. Hattie
brought her career as a philanthropist
to an end when she killed the three
mice she discovered stealing a por-
tion of the bread that she had intend
ed to give them.
Hattie became known as a creature
of fads almost from the day she ar
rived in the menagerie At one time
she showed fondness for playing on
the harmonica and dancing. With the
assistance of William Snyder, head
keeper, she mastered these accom-
plishments. She took pride in the ad.
miration which her exhibition aroused
but about year ago her life as q
performer palled on her.
Her friends among the visitors to
the menagerie are inclined to believe
| that she wanted to initiate women OF
fashion when she began to dispense
charity to mice by giving bread
crumbs and delicacies which she did
not care to eat. She did not confine
her generosity to the mice, however
and one of Mr., Snyder's dogs found II
to advantage to visit Hattie's stall
when hungry. She even permitted the
robins to enter her quarters and feast
More than a dozen mice have made
it a practice to scurry into her stall
Immediately after her feeding time
and pick up the crumbs. Hattie
seemed pleased by these visits and per
mitted the rodents to come and &c
when they liked. Three Of the mice

Wants Clear Conscience.

New York.-That he might plead
guilty to theft in 1908 and die with
a clear conscience, Daniel Loewy was
carried on a stretcher into general
session the other day before Judge
Grain. Abraham Levy, his counsel,
told the story of the robbery by Loewy
of ten sable skins from his employer,
the skins being valued at $1,75O.
Judge Grain then suspended sentence
Loewy Is declared by physicians to
be slowly dying.
He went to San Francisco in Febru'
ary, 1910, and while in the new West.
ern hotel there was held up, shot and
robbed by three unidentified men,
who escaped. They took all the dia
nonds Loewy had.

This Elephant Kills Mice

the other day began nibbling at loaf
of bread in her stall and had Toasted
for several minutes before Hattie no.
ticed them. Then the elephant house
resounded with her cries of rage.
The mice tried to escape, but Hat
tie was too quick for them While
the rodents were squealing for mercy
she lifted foot and stamped out
their lives Four other mice were in
the stall and ran away when they saw
Hattie kill their companions.-New

GOV. WEST TRUSTS coNvIcTs

"The only honor lacking in the aver
age criminal is that which is wrenched
from him by incivility, distrust and
inhumanity. Extend to a convict the
courtesy, confidence and trust due him
as a man and he will respond with
more honor than the average person
who has never seen the bars, the dun
geon or the dismal gray walls of a
penitentiary."
Basing his action on this bit OF
philosophy, Gov oswald West of Ore
gon recently threw open the barred
doors of the oregon state penitentiary
and turned more than 200 convicts out
into the inviting forests and fields to
serve the remainder of their terms
without guards, stripes, chains or
stockades.
With one sweep the dungeon, the
dark cell, the striped suits, the ball
and chain and the gallows were wiped
out as unnecessary parts Of the insti-
tuition and in their stead was estab-
lished unique and revolutionary

SULTAN A MEDIATIzED RULER

On March 80, France inaugurated a.
change in her political dealings with
Morocco, by the signing of treaty
with the Sultan, Mulia-Abd-elHafid
establishing French protectorate.
France has had much experience in
the government of the North African
countries, which line the Mediterran-
can from Tripoli to the Atlantic ocean,
and the decision to leave the govern
ment nominally in native hands is a
wise one. 1t is evidently based on the
success of her peaceful conquest of
Tunis where the externals of Arab
rule have been preserved. In Algeria,
on the other hand, where the admin.
istration is directly and openly
French, her domination aroused the
bitter jealousy and hostility Of the
natives who saw in the elimination of
their native rulers a threatened SUBJ
version Of the Mahommedan religion.
with the result that France has had
to maintain her footing by rigorous
military rule. Mulia Hafid, the pres
Deco is known to his subjects as the

PASTOR ENLISTS IN NAVY.
Leaves Church for Better "Advan.
tages" of Sailors Life.

BOSTON, May S.-Desiring to. try life
in the navy and its opportunities for
travel as a change from pastoral work in
a rural parish. a man who said he was
the Rev. Luther Grice, pastor Of the Free
Baptist Church at Shady Rill, VT, ap-
piled for enlistment yesterday as an ordi-
nary seaman at the naval station here.
Members Of the Shady Rill church two
days ago asked the newspapers to aid
them in finding their pastor, who dis
appeared Sunday before the time Of the
usual morning service. They had re-
ceived no intimation Of his Intention to
give up his pastorate. and were fearful
that harm had befallen him.
To the recruiting officer here the ap-
plicant said that his salary at the Yer
mont church was small, and that he be-
lieved life in the navy offered more ad-
vantages than the ministry, particularly
in the opportunity TO study languages and
to view foreign countries.
When physical examination developed
no objections to the ministerial candi-
dates enlistment he was told that the
papers would be ready Thursday, and he
said he would appear then. prepared to
don the uniform.
