THE BEEF-TRUST SCANDAL As an octopus hunter it would be hard to beat the President. This administration will have many things to be remembered by, but few will rank in popular memory with the number of trusts detected and exposed. In fact it looks as though the President's dictum that there were good and bad trusts was near the point of disappearing. He has certainly located a plethora of bad trusts, but there seems to be a minus mark still on the side of the good ones. The latest of these is the packing scandal in Chicago. There was a good deal of surprise last week when it developed that Senator Beveridge had offered an amendment to the Agricultural Department Appropriation bill providing for very drastic meat inspection, the expenses to be borne by the packers. There was not even a division asked for on the amendment, which was really a rider on a very important bill. From this curious piece of legislation developed the whole story. Last February a novel purporting to deal with the packing house conditions in Chicago created much of a sensation. The President sent out a private commission, composed of the Commissioner of Labor and J. B. Reynolds, who is not connected in any way with the government service, to ascertain the facts in the case. They report- to deal with the packing house conditions in Chicago created much of a sensation. The President sent out a private commission, composed of the Commissioner of Labor and J. B. Reynolds, who is not connected in any way with the government service, to ascertain the facts in the case. They reported that the novel had not overdrawn the picture at all, and that the conditions in Chicago were almost too disgusting to print. It was obvious that another trust scandal had been unearthed and though it would have been good campaign material, an effort was made to tack the Beveridge amendment to the Agricultural Appropriation bill and correct the condition without creating a scandal that would affect our trade abroad. This was a patriotic enough plan, but the story leaked out from some source or other and now the story has been blown broadcast. Probably little harm has been done. Foreign dealers have been making the most of the story as disclosed in the novel for months past, and it is just as well for the people in this country to get at the truth of the story and let what credit there is in it go to the record of the Administration.

Fathers attributed nearly all that beset them to drafts, would not have slept in their beds for anything. Of cows windows and doors were houses stood far apart, so nearly inevitable. But the scientific world tries to deny together and calls them winds harmless and even healthy to degree. Any one who cares to find difference between a wind can do so in any apartment windows on different side house. Let him open a windy day on the side toward which the wind blows which comes in is quite like the person exposed to it being warm clothes, and little chance take the air in a room thus. But let him open a window the wind blows, and it will that the air in the room is no number of currents, all of which to reach the opening. It is wind which sucks up the room and draws it out, and the room to have what draft. The effect upon sensitive immediately felt, like the pain to come.

Several years ago there lived in Cincinnati a mule which was employed by a street railway company in hauling cars up a steep incline. This animal was hitched in front of the regular team and unhitched as soon as the car arrived at the top of the hill. It made a certain number of trips in the forenoon (I have forgotten the number, but will say 50 for the sake of convenience) and a like number in the afternoon, resting for an hour at noon. As soon as the mule completed its fiftieth trip it marched away to its stable without orders from its driver. To show that it was not influenced by the sound of the factory whistles and bells the following remarkable action on the part of this animal is vouched for by the superintendent of the line, who gave me these data: On a certain occasion, during a musical festival, this mule was transferred to the night shift, and the very instant it completed its fiftieth trip it started for the stables. It took the combined efforts of several men to make it return to its duty. At night there were no bells or whistles to inform the creature that "quitting time" had come. It had counted the trips, and having finished its full quota of 50 it thought that the time for rest and food had arrived. Some monkeys give unmistakable evidences of the possession by them of the computing faculty. In 1889 I made the acquaintance of a very intelligent chim-panzee which could count as high as three. That this was not a trick suggested by sensual impulses I had ample opportunity of satisfying myself. The owner of the animal would leave the room, no one being present but myself, and when I would call for two marbles or one marble or three marbles, as the case might be, the monkey would gravely hand over the required number. Romanes mentions an ape which could count three, the material used in his experiment being straws from the animal's cage.

DEWEY AS A DISCIPLINARIAN. His Method of Subduing Some Refractory Sailors. "I was with Commodore Dewey when he was the executive officer of the Colorado," said a financier, "and I remember one incident which shows the manner of man he is. We had a fine crew, some of them as powerful men as I ever saw. Four or five of them went ashore one day and came back fighting drunk. "Three of them were men who would singly have been more than a match in strength for John L. Sullivan. The order was given to put them in irons, and it was found impossible to carry out the order, for the men were dangerous. Dewey was notified of the situation. He was writing a letter in his room at the time. "He went to the place where these giants were and he told them to come out and submit to the irons. They did not stir. Then Dewey said quietly to an orderly, 'Bring me my revolvers,' and when he had his pistols he again called upon the men to come out, but they did not move. Then he said, 'I am going to count three. If you are not out here with your hands held up on the third count, you won't come out of that plaos alive." "He counted one, then he cocked the revolvers, and he counted two. We all expected to hear the report, for we knew that Dewey meant what he said. The men knew it too. They stepped out just in time to save their lives and held up their hands, and they had been partially sobered by their fright and the moral effect of Dewey's glance. "One of them said afterward that when he saw Dewey's eyes he knew that he would either be a dead Jackie in a moment or he would have to yield, and when the irons were put upon him he was as sober as he ever was in his life. Dewey went back to his room and finished the letter he was writing." tently felt, like the forerunner to come. A draft will always was colder than the wind.

Poem entitled 'The Bridge,' sung fellow, "was written in sorrow made me feel for the loneliness. I was a wildower at the end I used sometimes to go over bridge to Boston evenings to meet and return near midnight by the way. The way was silent, there and there a belated footstep. Rose or fell among the wooden and there was a great furnace on Brighton hills whose red light was ill by the waves. It was on such solitary walk that the spirit of them came upon me. The bridge was greatly altered, but the place the same." English Cookery. Cookery came from Italy, but before France attained any dislike English cooking was spoken of best in Europe. After the reign of VIII. soups and fish fell into disuse, and larger quantities of occupied their place. "In the James II. cookery had fallen lowest depth. It revived a little reigns of Anne and George I., dated again in the reigns of III. and III., until at last Engling was little better than that ancient Britons."—London Tele- Robin Redbreast. The country people of England, as well as of several other countries, have an idea that the red of the robin's breast was caused by a drop of blood which fell upon it at the crucifixion. According to the story, the robin, commiserating the condition of Christ, tried to pluck the crown of thorns from his brow, and, in doing so, got its breast wet with the blood flowing from the wounds. The color became permanent, being transmitted from generation to generation, and thus, according to the legend, the robin is a perpetual reminder of the sufferings of Christ. Snobbishness In Dogs. A dog fancier once took exception to Professor Huxley's assertion that "one of the most curious peculiarities of the dog mind was its inherent snobbishness, shown by the regard paid to external respectability. The dog who barks furiously at a beggar will let a well dressed man pass him without opposition." He said that, in fact, only dogs of well dressed persons act so. Dogs accustomed to men in rags bark, not at beggars, but at persons clothed in sleek broadcloth.
