The National Memorinl As iciation, organized for tho jurposes (f raising funds and crectinp a worthy monu ment to William McKinley over his grave at Canton, has completed tho most onerous portion of its task tho raising of funds. Tho treasurer is Governor-elect Myron T. Hernck, of Ohio, and he reports that $150,000 are now on hand. Of this, $ 1000,000 is to be devoted to the erection of the memorial, and the remaining $50, 000 will be invested, the income to be devoted to the maintenance and care of the structure, and the grounds surrounding it. The necessary funds being sub scribed and paid in, tho next step is to decide on an appropriate design for the memorial. The competition was opened to all American artists, and a large nurd er of designs have been submitted. It is said, however, that the most of these, if not all, will be dropped from consideration; and the time for receiving designs has been extended to January 1 next. It has also been decided to ask the lead ing members of the American Institute of Architects for opin ions and advice in the choice among the designs submitted. It is to be hoped that the design accepted will be one that will commend itself not only to the present generation of Americans, but to the future ones. There is but little in American mauso leum architecture so far to be com mended. Wo need a new departure. Turkish Police Assault our Consul. Constantinople, Dec. 8.

Standard Drugs, Fresh Patent Medicines, High Grade Perfumes, Soaps, Toilet Arti cles, and Specialties m Her has broucht her in opposition to the Catholic church and she has recently had a sharp controversy with a Cath olic priest. The occasion of the dif ference is that Miss Gould served the children meat on Friday. This is against the discipline of the Catholic church which insists, that flesh shall be obstained from on that day because on that day Christ was crucified. The school is open to children of any or no denomination, but of course, if no concession be made to the prejudices of the Catholics, they will not permit their children to enter the school. The situation raises the query: Which will be best for the poor child, to learn to sew and eat meat on Friday, or forego this advantage and minis ter to its soul by obstaining from meat? It is probable that many children, if withdrawn from the school, would be unable to get meat any other day of the week as well Religious prejudice certainly works some peculiar and annoying embar rassments for a heart filled with the love of doing practical good. Miss Gould, in her reply to the Catholic priest, says she will not only continue to serve meat to the children on Fri day, but that she will begin the prac tice of reading portions of tho Prot estant Bible to them before teaching them to hem shirts.

All Californian records for verdicts involving loss of human life were broken by the award made in the United States District Court at Los Angeles last week. Mrs. Cora Ver non was given judgment for $27,500 against the Southern Pacific Railway Company as compensation for the loss of her husband, who was killed in a wreck at Byron, on December 20, 1902. Attorneys say tho highest award ever made heretofore for human life in California was $20,000, and they believe the verdict the largest ever awarded outside of New York. Vernon was scalded and crush ed in a wreck caused by the Stocton fiver crashinc into the Owl on tho The Little Outcast. placed in the cotton plots by some interested person, perhaps for specu lative purposes. The Agricultural Department expresses tho opinnn that the weevil will in time spread over all the cotton fields of the South, unless something is found to prevent it, and the annual damage, based on that which has already taken place in Texas, will amount to $250,00),- 000, or one-half in value of the cot ton crop. This is a very serious mat ter for tho nation, and tho world in u. .Mar- eeneral. as tho cotton which is now used is nearly all produced in the United States.
