THE Oshkosh Times has instituted
new departure in the matter of compli-
mentary tickets, which should be accept
ed generally by publishers of newspapers.
Indeed for the honor of the profession
the practice should be adopted formally
by the editorial association of the state.
Editors are looked upon as dead beats,
when the fact is that every compliment
tary ticket costs them double what it does
people who pay cash. There are thou
sand little jobs done gratuitously for
churches, societies and private entertain
ments. Every canvasser for subscriptions
toward picnics, balls and raffles call at
the printing Office and mulct the editor.
Let the practice be discontinued of Civ
ing free advertising or doing work gratis,
and throw complimentaries to the dogs.

MADAME LITTA did not draw as large
a crowd on Tuesday night as on the oc-
caslon of her former visit here, although
at that time her singing gave the greatest
delight to the few who are competent to
judge of the real merits of singing. The
cultured musical critic sees no merit in
anything which those uninitiated in the
mysteries of classical music can appreci.
ate, and the vocal pyrotechnics exhibit
ed in rendering the italian" piece on
Tuesday were no doubt superb as COM
pared with the stale Annie Laurie or The
Last Rose OF Summer. There is touch
of aristocratic taste in music, in speaking
of how finely "Trayiata" was given or
"Fecilita' and plebeian odor about the
poor wretch who expresses preference
for "Pop Goes the Weasel or yankee
Doodle" and then it is ton to insist that
good singing can only be done in some
foreign language. The English is not
recherche in the land where English is
spoken. 1t is an objectionable offense
against good taste to suggest that there
is any melody in the English language.
And yet unconscious tribute is paid to
these beautiful airs which it is the custom
to decry. When the cornetist played
Annie Laurie there was hush in the
hall which could only come from COM
plete absorption in the beautiful melody.
When Madame Litta sang the "Last
Rose of Summer" respiration was in
dulged in guardedly lest note should be
lost. "Traviata" is no doubt a nice thing
to talk about the next day, but The Last
Rose of Summer was the thing to enjoy
that night.

GOTTLIEB DAIMLER,
Treasurer of Manitowoc County.

The city council are making efforts to
secure suitable location for an engine
house for the north side. We know
nothing about the the motives influence
ing the members or the need of changing
the engine house from its present loca-
ton. Neither do we see how the space
now occupied by the engine house could
be used with more advantage to the city.
There is to be no bridge built across the
river at this point and some reasons for
the removal of the engine house should
be assigned before the work is done.

SOME hanger-on of the circus put up
little game on the farmers coming in
from the north on Thursday last. A
shady spot was selected and table set
out, but boxes were shown the farmer,
from one of which he saw bill project
ing. He was to pay a certain amount
and take his choice of the boxes. If the
honest granger won, he made no COM
plant; if he lost he mourned loud and
long and sought the aid of the police
People who take chances of this kind
after the warning they have had, should
receive no assistance when they are
cheated. They are anxious to win and
play the baby when they lose.

The circus last Thursday did not at
tract as large crowd as usual, but still
the streets were quite well filed, and the
circus tent covered quite number of
sight seers. The procession was by no
means an imposing affair and led many
to believe that "the show" would be a
slim affair. The menagerie was quite
poor, there being but very few animals,
and those of rather an inferior grade
The acting was well up to the highest
standard, the riding, tumbling and aero
batic feats being specially good. The
most enjoyable feature was the leaping
of the hounds. There is 80 much grace
and agility in the leap of a hound that
when the animal is trained, it is the very
poetry of motion.

o. r. BACON.

o. r. Bacon died on Monday morning
after painful illness of some months.
Early In the spring his health began to
fail, and though nothing of a fatal char
acter was anticipated, he kept growing
weaker until he was unable to quit his
bed. His disease made rapid progress
from this time and quickly destroyed
hope.
Mr.. Bacon was born in Saltwater, Sar-
atoga county, N. Y, August q, 1921.
He studied medicine with DIR. S. A. Cook
Of Troy, N. Y, and graduated in the
medical college of Casselton, Vermont,
after which he practiced medicine at
Buskirk Bridge, n. Y. While there he
married Miss Eliza Smith, March II,
1850. In 1854 he moved west and set
tied at Waukesha. He came to Manitowoc
to give lessons in music, intending to
maintain his residence at Waukesha.-
But his success as teacher of music in
duced the school board to offer him tne
principalship of the north side school,
which he accepted in 1856 and took up
his residence in the city. He continued
principal for the period of six years. He
then became paymaster's clerk and was
stationed for some time at st. Louis. At
the close of the war he engaged in the
-four and feed Business, but soon after
quit that and started drug store, in
which business he continued until his
death.
he was a man of deep religious convic-
tons, rather retiring habits and strict in
tegrity. He enjoyed the respect of all
who knew him and lived without making
enemies.
His funeral took place OH Tuesday,
appropriate services being held at the
Presbyterian church. On account of
sickness in the family the services in the
church were brief; but memorial services
will be held on Sunday morning and the
sermon preached by Rev. Mr.. Craig.

MARSHAL MORRISON arrested sharper
who was travelling in company with the
circus, on Thursday evening. He was
operating the old trick of making small
purchase, giving in exchange two dol
lar bill, and after getting his change
back, discovering that he had the value
of his purchase in small coin. He would
then ask that the bill be returned, as it
would be more convenient for him to car
ry, and putting with the price of the
article purchased, enough to make one
dollar, he would return that as the
amount of change he had received from
the dealer He travelled in company
with his wife who operated in dry goods
stores. They did not succeed in making
the thing pay in Manitowoc, as the mar
shall had given the merchants warning
and they were on the look out for tricks
of this kind. In Appleton the fellow
made $40 in very short while, the rush
of business and the large crowd facilitat-
ing his operations.
