mo Smoking" in ST. Louis

One of the indignant smokers ap-
peals to the Mayor, though anony-
mously, in words and phrases, to-wit;
Whereas, the United Railways
Company is placing cards on their
cars prohibiting smoking on rear seats
and platforms, the people demand
that the rear or front end of every
car be partitioned off for smokers, as
every other civilized railway company
provides. Kindly have ban taken off
at once What right has the company
to make such a ruling? The people
only have right to make such rul-
ings."
Admitting the writer's claim that
the people only have n right to make
such rulings, we fear for our indig-
nant citizens hopes that their ruling
would be even more determinate
against smokers than the company's
regulation The question of smoking
was put to vote in Kansas City a
year or two ago and the smokers were
given a peremptory mo" three to one.
Our sympathies are with the smok-
ers to the extent that we should plead
for a special compartment for them
if it were practicable. Let us not be
harsher than necessary But as to
"every other civilized railway COM
pany" providing them, we have little
corroborative data.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

Jim was out with Hugh Nevin one

Served Him Right

Eustace had bicycle. Eustace had
something else, too-he had a pro-
found contempt for ''yokels," as he
called the inhabitants of the country.
Eustace was on his first bicycling
tour, and felt quite an adventurous
dog One morning he was leaning
against a gate, smoking a pipe, which
he tried hard to believe was as pleas
ant as it looked, when one of the
despised yokels came along.
"That there things a bike, amt it,
mister?" said he.
ut is, my man." answered the
patronizing adventurer. DO you
think you could ride it?"
"Ay," replied the bucolic one.
Anybody couldF
ooh, indeedl Well, you try it and
ride this one and see how you get
on. It's not as easy as you think,
my mani
Up jumped the yolSel and rode 'off.
When he had gone about twenty
yards he turned gracefully in the sad
die and called to Eustace:
you'll find the bike by the church
yard, three miles down the road I'm
in hurry "-London It'd Bits.

A Don Juan

The late Lord Suffield was one of
King Edwards most intimate friends,
and, naturally enough, he had a great
fund of anecdotes concerning his
majesty,
The king was very clever in convey
ing his wishes without seeming to
make a request, Lord Suffield used to
say, and he could also administer a
very neat reproof if his wishes were
not followed. On one occasion a
shooting party from Sandringham was
out and, as it was toward the end of
the season, the king had let 1t be
known that the sportsmen were TO
conflne their attention to the cock
birds.
One man of the party had forgotten
or had not noticed this, and early in
the day he brought down a hen
pheasant.
Instead of getting angry at this nat
violation of his wishes. the king called
cut with smile:

Special to the Evening Star.
TRENTON, Sept. 3.-The State Fish
and Game Commission has just re-
ceived word from Washington that
President Wilson, before leaving for
his vacation, signed the amendment
to the migratory game bird law per-
hitting an open season for reed birds
In New Jersey, Pennsylvania and
Delaware. The open season is from
September l. to and including Octo-
Der 81, this year.
The laws of the several States reg
'ulating the taking of migratory game
birds has been superseded by the Fed
eral statute, which abolished all
closed seasons and absolutely pre-
vented the shooting of these birds.
The Federal law is now modified as
far as the three States named are
concerned, and as the open season in
New Jersey is already in force, gun
ners may Immediately take advan-
tage of the opportunity to hunt reed
birds.

at once held up his hand.

The bishop coughed in doubt as to
what answer to give, but little
