It is not my habit to bicker with my readers. They ce | either take what I tell them as gos- pel or I leave them strictly alone. In simple justice to myself and my larger public, I feel called upon to make a single, brief statement. It was due entirely to the commotion created by the incident upon which you squirt your inky doubts that the state of New York formally decreed the abolition of the old canal and the construction of the great barge canal at an expense of many millions of dollars—a canal large enough in its entire length to admit a fish such as 1 had hooked and a canal boat side by side!

Our Own Horoscope Department. Hazel Trill: If you were born on June 9, Hazel, you are a child of chanticleer, which is the old San- skrit word for chicken. Accordingly, you are very attractive to the oppo- site sex, since most men between the ages of eight and eighty are, by nature. chicken-hearted. Many chanticleer women have been known to vamp a helpless male in 31-5 minutes, which is 12-3 seconds under Cleopatra's record As to your general health, you are apt to develop general paralysis when there are dishes to washed or other housework presents itself, but once on a dance floor your recovery is almost instantaneous. The history of the love life of chanticleer women is quite unique. In early life they are always en- gaged to six men at the same time, ranging from a coal baron to a h.lno\u movie star; then, when about thirty-six they marry the corner druggist and help wait on the soda fountain. The meanest woman in the world is the wife who begrudges her hus- band the few words he sarys when he talks in his sieep. JAILED PENDING INQUEST. Woman and Man Questioned About Death of Hotel Guest.
