THAT CLAN AG1M.

I have no disposition to enter into
controversy with any one in regard TO
this claim. I think the Board made
| great mistake, and 7 thought that by
| calling attention to the matter, mistakes
| of the kind would be avoided in the fu-
| ture. We do not differ on the facts,-
it is on the conclusion alone. The au-
thor Of the communication in the Pilot
to be very satisfactory reason for max
| ing Mr.. NJ. donation OF 800.
| 1t is very easy to say that the amount
is to be charged to the county, and that
the county is going 90 charge the same
to Kewaunee county, when the records
| do not show that a single step has been
taken to charge the county OF Kewaunee
with the support OF these persons.
If Mr.. IL. had no legal claim against
the city, is the city likely to have legal
claim against the county, and Manitowoc
county against Kewaunee county? Sup
posing, when this claim is presented to
Manitowoc or Kewhunee county, they
inquire into it and conclude that it is
not desirable for them to go into the do
nation business, what then?
| We use the term donation for the
reason that the payment was simply
| nothing more or less than donation for
! services rendered weeks before the APP
preparation was made, and not to relieve
wont and distress as provided for by
| statute.
We might add that this claim was
several times before the Board and acted
upon each time adversely, after a dis
cussion of its merits, thus determining
| IS far as the Board were concerned that
there was no justice in it; and it was not
until after the claimant had gone into
court and it became positively known
that he had no legal claim, that the &C
| count was allowed. S. d. x.

MANNERS OF HUSBANDS.

Tie honeymoon cannot last forever, and
to all men there comes a point in their lives
where they nave to decide whether the
amenities and courtesies and sweetness
which characterized the early days OF their
affection shall be continued, or whether
they shall begiven up, and harsh sentiment,
and speech, and thought, and feeling SHALL
pervade their lives. TO some of as. per-
haps, this time has come, and we have not
decided rightly, and h%arshness has crept ia
to that which has been perfect melody, and
there has been chronic discord in our family
circle. Reform your conduct, husbands, il
you have lapsed from that sweet era. For
bearance is the keystone of married life
There can be no discord, there can be nc
large Emergencies from t~ruthtulisess, sc
long as the husband forbears and the wife
forbears. The temper should be kept under
perfect control.

his tone the nonchalance Of him who seek

game of billiards. Then he stood up, and
surely he was beautiful to look upon. Such
delicate softness Of creamy tint in that ex-
quisitely cut Spring suit :; such virgin purity
of shirt front, from which a gem from Alas
ka's famous mine flashed brilliantly and,
oh, Just such a darling little, lo~w-crowned,
mashed-in, lavender felt hat? Then to see
him move off in chat graceful glide, SO calm

stonped their warm work to look at him.
He seemed to feel their admiring eyes gloat-

There stands in the hall a large fountain,

not of that fountain he only increased his

save so much of tailor's loneliness his heels

then the muddy waters were moved.

tried to detain him to hear their expressions

from everysshred, he fastened away, leaving
a few hundred people convulsed with amuse-
ment over the idiosyncrasies of the Chicago

APRIL FOOL.

of April a Fifth street man observed a we'll
filled purse lying on the sidewalk, but, with
a knowing wink at the b%ystanders, and the
remark, Cant April fool me-" he walked
by it. An hour later, when he saw a posted
notice offering $50 for the recovery OF a
purse containing $500 in gold coin, and
learned that a mine owner had really drop
ped it, he went away into the hills back OF
the town, kicked himself half to death, roar
ed out seven tons of ponderous words that
would make a dictionary blush, and SAID ne
could lick the man who invented the lst OF
April if he was as big as a buck elephant.
When he cooled off he returned to town,
and in passing down the street stopped and
picked up a four-bit piece. He laid 1t down
agin, looked wildly at his burned and Bills
tered fingers, and then struck out for the
hills again with a lope like a strlng-llalt

ENVY.

OF all the emotions which enter the hui
man breast to destroy the sweets of life and
rob it of good to the possessor, envy is one
of the worst. Envious persons are never
content, never happy, repining at the pros
perity OF their %neighbors they fail to recog-
nize and rejoice at their own.
The envious man is kind only when he
can patronize, cheerful only when he thinks
he is excelling those about him, and though
he may swell with egotism when he is COM
handing attention, admiration for the
achievements of another is something tor
eign to his disposition. Envy gives wings
to scandal and lends credence to falsehood.
TOO often it, the handspring which keeps
in motion the whole machinery of backbit-
ing. and ill natured tittle-tattle pertaining
to a ~neighborhood. Among those who
worship at the shrine of Mammon and
whose aspirations are only ''of'this earth,-
earthy'' it is less surprising to the spirit OF
envy eontending for supremacy over the
b~etter.emotions of the breast, but'alas, how
| often,do we see men and women processing
Christianity who allow this agent OF the
evil one to hold them in thrall till,like acid
on antinferior metal it corrodes and de-
stroys the nobler attributes OF their ma
lures.
Envyiin the human breast is like a de-
stroying weed in a garden of flowers, If not
uprooted at once by the possessor it will
scatter its noxious seeds till it :paves the
way for it's whole kindred train of evil emo
tons. He who has never sorrowed in an
others sorrow, or joyed in anothel's joy, is
a stranger to one of the most royal roads to
happiness which human feet can tread,
while whose breast is a chamber for these
sympathetic emotions enjoys not only his
own good fortune, but reaps a double share
through the prosperity of his ariend.

many and interesting ones to which tn

TWEED N RUSTELL.

IneinlOnLn OF April Ill tilc CITY " NCw
York saw the close oftwo gold-cursed lives.
if two ever sexisted-Tweed and Restell.
The former, after having amassed q fabu-
lous fortune, and after having been elected
to and filled almost as high an office as lay
within the gift of the people, and having
filled all the posts of honor that wealth or
position could give, aclknowled at the last
that his life''was aifailure," to use his own
words. Madam Restell with the knife at
her throat proclaimed louder than the blast
OF a thousand trumpets, that ill-gotten gold
never brings happiness. "There is a way
which seemeth right, ''but there is but one
right way. Honesty is the best policy
is a better maxim to-day than when first
uttered. That ''the way of the t~ransgressor
is hard,''' is fully exemplified in their lives.
After having gratified their worldly desires,
they met death before their appointed time,
and the end of a mis-spent life was but the
beginning of an eternity without hope.
"MY,dear - she remarked through the
telephone that ran to her husbands office,
.'you ought to be spanked for not changing
your shirt this morning." The young book
keeper who received the message didn't
feel like keeping up the dialogue.

The Rev. DIR. Richie, of E%dinburg, al
though a very clever man, has met his
match. When examining a student as to
the classes he had attended he said And
YOU attend the class for mathematics ~
"Yes.' "How many sides has a circle"'
"Two," said the student. "Wha are they"
What a laugh in the class the Students an
swer produced when he said: IAN inside
5 and an outside" But this was nothing to
2 what followed. The doctor said to this stu
dent: "And you attend the philosophy
class, also?, "Yes.,' swell, you would
: hear lectures ON subjects. Did you ever hear
i, one on cause and effect?' EYES," "Does
an effect ever go before a cause?" yes"
sGive me an instance" "a man wheeling

proposed no more questions.
