Tho bell hus bad much tho Bamo experience everywhere through the west. At nearly every city and town going and coming, crowds hav assembled to pay it honor. It was tho first time thc bell was ever taken weat of tho Mississippi River. After such an enthusiastic and continuous welcome, it should not bc the last. It is much for thc great, new, pioneer sections of the country to see a relic tbflt reminds them not only of the east from which they all came, moro or less remotely, but oil their country's early history of which tho wost has so fow visible ovldences. SWAT THE CAT Now York is gottitg after its cats. New York City is especially exorcised about them Just now, because of a fatal case of anthrax supposed to be traceable to a cat. A girl bought n cheap set of furs, and died a few days later from this dreadful discaso. She caught It, apparently, from the con tact of tho fur collar with her bare chest. The theory is that tho cat from which thc fur was taken was afflicted with anthrax-as strnv cats somotimes are-and that, the .'inper fect treatment involved in the manu facture of cheap fur? failed to kill the germ. Another caso adduced is that of a Brooklyn girl who reached down to j pot a stray cat on her way to school, j and received a slight scratch which resulted in her death from rabies. The National Association of Andu- { bon (Societies ia very active in a cam paign against cats. It argues that not only is the feline tribe respon-j slble for transmitting a great deal o' tuberculosis, rabies, .tetanus, paralysis, Scarlet fever, diphtheria, smallpox, measles, whooping cough, mumps, ringworm, etc., but it devastates the bird population and thus Indirectly does vast damage to agriculture.! There are r,,000,000, song birds de stroyed by cats in New York state | every year, and 6,000,000 In Massa chusetts, says the Audubon society, and the number killed in the entire! country amounts to many scores of) millions. It is the stray cat o? precarious living and uncertain habits that is responsible for most of tho dUease bearing and bird-slaughter.. Mont clair. N. J., recently took cognizance of tills fae- by passing an ordinance re rmi ring ail cats to carry tags with their! owners' name, arid providing that cat;; not. v; ea ring such tr." s should be killed as dangerous vagrants. The Audubon societies, however, maintain that; evn1 the ?leek pussy who sleeps by the dre and plays with the children tn such apparent, harmlessness is likely to bo a Jek;! cud Hyde boast, tranc-nlttlng neighborhood contagions and infections, and prowling about at night aa a beast of prey. MORALITY AND LAW .Personal liberty" triumphs in the decision of a. New York magistrate who- refused to commit to the work house a woman accused of lmVtuni intemperance.. There was no evidence beioraI the magistrate showing that tba prisoner had ever been intoxicated In' a pub lic place. Her offensoa wer? commit ted at. home. , His honor held that '?'The. polico have no 'power to invade private promises to arr'?st females who j rutty be lnteroperato,". ' because f,4it/was nhl the Intention ct the legis lature to make a por son of Intemperr ate. habits . a criminal, or to Justify a magistrate tn'arresting pr corcmttilng sueh.a female." . Ir? other words,'anjr lady has . a right to got drunk in the privacy pf nor own home.. Morality and lav, lt seems, haven't necessarily anything to do with each other.

The holiday mall? are alwayu unusually largo and those wishing to have pack ages delivered promptly should take the precaution to mall them early. Tho notice, "Not to .ho opened until Christmas," can be easily put on the package. One-half tho pleasure of re ceiving Christmas presents is opening them up on Christmas Day, and if they are delayed in the mails, this joy is gone. Dr. John E. White referring laugh ingly to the editor of tho Greenwood Journal and his criticism of the gen tleman in a nearby town who built his "porch too big" for William Jen nings Bryan said: "Tell tile editor that his trouble is not with the porch but the house. He thinks Mr. Bryan's house a hut when it ls a mansion big and great. The porch suited tho house, at least Mr. Bryan thought so and apparently everybody oise." "It reminds mo i a man iii North Carolina who ^ a . uildlng a house," continued Dr. White. "There were severe criticisms of tho size. The gen tleman put tho following notice in the paper: 'My house Bulta my wife and T guess wo know what we are build ing it for whether /that old bachelor that criticized does or not.' " -o In talking with savers! of the bsak ers of tile city these gentlemen have expressed themselves as much oppos ed to the Idea of putting a two-cent revenue stamp on checks. This of course would be av good way for tho United States l gifrernmrai . to false money and it may"become necessary for it. to be done/ but on'?he other hand lt seems Ithat it: Would tend to destroy or demoralize' a' system of savings that baa been" greatly en couraged by ' tho government and which is the life of .tho banks. The banks of this country aro necessary to tho government's financial system and anything that would tend to dam age 'them would In a way, be harmful to this country'a currency methods. This requirement would ? cause all small depositors to withdraw their money from the b?^^;'.'be?auae thero would be mighty few iwh?i would feel like paying two cents every time that he wrote a check, ' The mah ?hat pays his. grocer, bia bu tabor, and his cloth ing, billa by checks,., would , be the man who' would feel lt. most.
