Temperance strong; no hounds
yelping under the tail-board; no one
in distress under the influence Of wa
ter; the tempting bowl has gone to
look for better quarters, and our
tongue can wag on in the good cause
without the use of old rye. AS for
neckyoke and whiffletrees, we have
no use for them, as we don't run the
temperance car with mules and
iackasses. Since the temperance
car arrived it has brought Joy into
families, and we would like to have
other families enjoy the same blessing
under the temperance motto. Now,
[ used to act foolish about such
things-and some may think so now
but it is kinder good old foolish. after
all, ard as have water on the brain,
people should overlook my simple
remarks. A, few glasses of whisky
at ten cents each cost the State of
Minnesota $4,000. and if we could
have thatamount to build temperance
cars with we would have less hic-ing
going on. Talk is cheap; whisky is
raging; and if my friend over the
briny deep is in distress, and will
come over, we will wind him up into
the temperance car and lubricato his
soul with.tho pure elements Of water,
and hic no more. HUB.

by the parties who demand the royal

Colonel was ready to produce. When he
took charge he would of course need a
book keeper. An advertisement was in
serted in the morning papers and Col
Holman secured q young man with
high recommendations. The young
man was highly gratifed with the
amount Of salary promised him. Yester-
day afternoon he accompanied his en-
ployer to the restaurant and heard him
canvass the proposed purchase. After
they had left, Col. Holman happened to
recollect that he had to step in some
where and pay $500, He did not have IL
with him and it was after banking hours.
He was embarrassed, for he had promised
the money and could not break his
word. His book-keeper came to the
rescue and lent him the money. The
colonel insisted as a matter Of form the
book-keeper should Keep the $4,000 dia-
mond ring until the money was repaid.
The book-keeper took the ring and adj
mired its sparkling while he was waiting
for his employer to come back. This
grew monotonous finally, for his employ
er never came back Convinced finally
that he had been swindled he took the
ring to a ieWeller who told him that the
scintillations were produced by tin foil
pasted on the back of the gem, which
was made Of glass and was worth z cents,
He went back to the restaurant but could
get no news Of the colonel, Later in the
day Chief of Detectives Watkins also
called there, and the proprietor who did
not know the name Of the hook-keeper
