A strange animal which attacked
and bit a boy in Irvington, n. j., is
thus described:
1t is about the size of cat 1t has
short hind legs. with the feet webbed an
covered with hair. The front legs are
long and thin and the claws are about
two inches long. The teeth are like
prongs and about two inches long.
While we are not able to identify
this animal from the description
given. there need be no hesitation in
declaring that its habitat is Winsted

We believe we could fully classify
this beast if the description had con-
tanned two or three other points,
namely, appetite, disposition and tail
If this latter looks like the cutter-bar

the beasts liking for grub is abnormal

the gentler sex overpowering, then we

Follow SHINING Example.

Controversy has arisen in the City
Of Washington over the practice OF
architects employed by the District
Of Columbia engaging in outside work
for which they receive outside COM
pensation at the same time that they
are drawing salaries from the District.
1t is reported that one employee Of the
building department not only makes
plans for private parties. but takes
building contracts and is now building
several houses for which he Is the con-
tractor. Another does such an ex-
tensive business outside for private
parties that it requires two automo-
biles for him and his assistants to
travel around in. While this is arous-
ing considerable criticism from other
architects who do not have the ad-
vantage Of a government salary to
help them to compete for private busi-
ness, yet nothing else could be expect
ed in the government service when the
former leading member of the Presi-
dents cabinet pursued similar course
by making extensive Chautauqua tours
and spending much Of his time away
from his official duties in order to add
to his income.

It may be remarked that what MI.
Blythe says Of Japan applies to large

have gone to great lengths to exclude
Asiatic labor from the United States

the product Of that labor to competi-

OF labor we are endeavoring to main

thoughtful citizen there will appear to
be little difference in effect between
freely admitting the laborer himself
and freely admitting his product. In

Do You Wish to Compete with Thorn
One Of the strongest arguments ever
presented in support Of a protective
tariff policy was recently presented in
the columns Of The Saturday Evening
Post. a paper which has frequently
given encouragement to the low tariff
or free trade idea. The new view pre-
Sented through the Post was con-
tanned in an article by Samuel G.

The shad fishing season Is over for
this year. The law went on last
Tuesday and fishermen can now only
fish on the Kennebec below the Reach
and that section Of the river will not
offer inducements worth the while Of
fishermen. The catches this spring
have been about the average for the
past few years. and the fish run about
even, half bucks and half roes A fish
erman who has had 80 years expert
ence on the Kennebec. tells the Bath
Times that the spring shad fishing
has been about killed off by the
seiners who are equipped to carry on
the work at all times in the year for
the cold storage, and he Is surprised
that the experts who pose as guardi-
ans of the fishing industry cannot see
that while the seiners are allowed to
carry on their work, fishing on the
rivers will soon be killed off COM
pletely. If the shad were allowed to
grow there would be splendid supply
but the way 1t is now. the seiners
catch the young fish before they are
OF an age ready to come to fresh water
to spawn and ripen off. He also says
that the fish originally were fright
ened away by the motor boats, but
they have gradually become used to
them, but now the seiners are making
a havoc by preventing the fish from
reaching the age when they can null
tiply.

when his pupship saw those mounds,
all soft and brown and light, he
bounced upon them one by one and
made them look fright. He shook
the stuff1ng out of rose and ate syrin-
! gas shoots, then came with mud upon
his nose, to chew his missus boots.
The rest Is a tale too doggone sad
to relate by any historian of a wag-
| gish turn.
A truly remarkable record is that OF
A. F. Warren and W. H. Brigham Of
Buckfeld. two white-haired veterans
of the Civil War, who played the fife
and drum at the recent Sons of Veter-
ans convention held in Bangor, and
who have played these instruments to-
gether for no less than 60 years. They
began their public career as musi
clans in the fall Of 1860, when they
played with the Lincoln and Hamlin
Wideawakes, as campaigners for Abb
raham Lincoln and Hannibal Hamlin
Of Maine, candidates for president
These two men can probably give the
best fife and drum duet Of any pair
in the State Of Maine. AS boys they
learned to play the fife and drum from
veterans of the Mexican war and old
militia heroes. After the campaign
Of 1860, when Lincoln had been elect
ed, and his administration was in
trouble from the attitude of the South.
Warren and Brigham were quickly
to rally to the support Of the admin
istration and the Union. Warren was
only IL years old, but enlisted as q
drummer boy in the 23rd Maine regi-
ment and was among the youngest
soldiers in the Union army. He was
engaged in the defense Of Washington
with the army Of the Potomac and
saw hard service during the war His
partner, Brigham, would have served
with him had it not been for parental
opposition to his entering the army
as mere child. Young Brigham
tried to enlist several times. and more
than once was just about to leave
for the front when his parents object
ed to his going and he was compelled
to stay at home. Finally, however, he
gained admission to the ranks Of the
boys in blue and served several years.
Since the war, both have lived quietly
at home in Buckfield. They do not
play the fife and drum for money. but
| only at meetings of patriotic societies.
such as the Sons of Veterans, Grand
Army and Women's Relief corps.
