The liberty cap, that bag shaped headgear so often seen on the head of the Goddess of Liberty, and which sur mounts the national colors on nearly all of our silver coins, owes its origin to tho Roman empire, where it was given to slaves as a sign of their manu mission. The principal significance of the liberty cap to the American mind is not, however, its Roman origin, but rather its use as the official cap of the successive doges of republican Venice— that “model of the most stable govern ment ever framed by man.” In the doge’s palace at Venice there is a gal lery full of portraits of the men who ruled tho republic for 700 years, and the conspicuous place occupied by the liber ty cap in these portraits shows its im portance as a national symbol of free dom. It rather heightens the significance of this ancient symbol in the minds of good Americans when it is remembered that the Emperor Frederick Barbarossa humbled himself before a wearer of the liberty cap, and that Andrea Dandolo wore it on the fourth crusade and at the conquest of Constantinople. It occu pied a place in the forefront of the ad vancing hosts that in the early part of the fifteenth century swept tho Dalma tian towns and conquered the entire from tho IWtuary of tho Po to the island of Corfu. While Columbus was discovering America tho wearers of the liberty cap were acquiring Zante and Cyprus, and when the first half of the half starved settlements on the Massachusetts coast were battling for existence the republic from which we borrowed our liberty cap, having successfully resisted a league of all the kings of Christendom, was at the zenith of its glory. The liberty cap is not as conspicuous in our national signs and symbols as it was in those of the rulers of the Adri atic, yet in a modest way it immortalizes the greatest republic of early times.— Philadelphia Press. A Curious Fi*ocession. A curious procession once took place at Brussels. One part of tho display cdfisisted of a car containing an organ played by a bear. There were no pipes to the instrument, but a number of cats, each inclosed in a narrow cage, an swered the purpose. They were so ar ranged that when the bear touched the keys of the organ the cats’ tails were pulled, and the result was anything but choice music, to say nothing of the cru elty thus practiced on the poor ani mals.—Brussels Correspondent. ’ A Third Star. Now the political equality clubs are busy sewing on Uk their equal suffrage flags a second star for Colorado, besides the star of'Wyoming. While they are about it they may as well prepare a third star for Kansas, to be added next gtall.—Woman’s Journal. », DECEMBER 20 L 893.
