The f1ambeau club was out in
force last Saturday evening. They
marched and countermarched along
some of our streets. The members
made a creditable appearance, and
deported themselves well, indeed.
After the demonstration of the
flambeau club, the ring outfit had a
meeting in Opera Hall. Mr.. Heilig
made a speech. He succeeded in
convincing himself that Mr.. Olson's
resolution offered in the IA of July
caucus would have been adopted if
its mover had not withdrawn it.
This is, not the true history of the
transaction. Conger, Osborn and
other ringsters hooted down the
resolution. Mr.. Osborn was so iu-
bilant as to remark that its with
drawal-after having been hooted
down-spoiled good speech from
him. Mr.. Heilig will recall this
circumstance. Mr.. McClaren, Mr..
Heilig will also remember, refused
to withdraw his second to the Olson
resolution, and the ring outfit,
with DR.. Conger as chief declaimer,
laughed Mes proposition to
scorn! An apology might have
been in order from the ringsters on
caucus day, but it is worth just as

There is in Wa-Keeney one of
those egotistical little asses which
frequent hill sides where grazing is
mighty short. For want of better
term, we call him Bossed Shepard.
The fact is, he is both bossed and
lost. Bossed Shepard boasts to q

The Peoples movement is, on
ring authority, losing votes right
along. Judging from the yelping
which the ringsters keep up for
more help, the whole county must
have been conceded by them to the
Peoples Ticket in the start.

this as evidence that the Peoples

on November 6. Bossed Shepard
has been here in just one political
contest. This was last fall. He
was then held up by the present
ring outfit, and the latter was sus-
tanned by the "old wads." A
monkey, thus doubly strapped to a
pony, could not resist a ride if the
animal moved. We dislike, though,
to make these comparisons. They
are hard on the monkey!

The Dogs Rather Liked It.

Some persons pushed large New
foundland dog off the bank into the
river above Niagara Falls, near Pros
pect Point, on the Canada side a few
days ago, expecting, no doubt, to
see him dashed to pieces on the rocks
below. They were doomed to dis
appointment, however, for after being
carried over the cataract the animal
landed in the deep pool just under the
point, swan around in the eddy for
a very short time, and finally reached
the rocks on the shore. He pulled
himself up and walked to the foot of
the inclined railway, the door ofwhich
was opened for him, and the drenched
brute was allowed to walk up the
long flight of stairs and into thepark.
Ten minutes after he was playing
about the park, apparently none the
worse for his recent hazardous ex-
perience. A similar experiment was
also tried another day, when small
canine was thrown off one of the
small islands into the current on the
American side. He went over the
falls, swan to the bank, erawled up,
wagged his tail in triumph, and walk
ed off unframed. Graham, who sent
his little Spitz dog over in an ale
cask, feels pretty sick when told of
these occurrences. He says a man
will be able to dive over the falls
pretty soon and come out all right.

Fitting Up Hotel Roofs.

There is a movement on foot to fit
up gardens on the roofs of the differ
emit hotels somewhat after thestyle oil
the roof garden on the Casino, Ifthe
idea is carried out it will, no doubt,
keep great many people in the city
during the summer who would other
wise go to the country or seashore.
A great many private dwellings, in
town are fitted up with these beauti-
full gardens, where, during the warm
summer evenings, the tenants sit and
enjoy themselves in an atmosphere
several degrees cooler than in the
street.
If the movement becomes general,
as it is thought, this city in short
time will resemble the city of Baby
Ion, with the famous hanging gar-
dens. Then the workers on their way
to their daily toll win walk through
avenues of flowers and an atmos-
phere laden with sweet perfumes.-New

stevcnson's Thrift.

1t seems that years ago Robert
Louis Stevenson wrote tale of the
wars of the Roses for an English
story paper. 1t was a good tale, and
it went the way of about all story
paper tales,-the way to oblivion.
Since then fame has come to the
author This spring the newspapers
have been publishing a ''ten-thous-
and dollars" story by Robert Louis
Stevenson, "The Outlaws of Tunstall
Forest, " copyrighted by the proprie-
tor of the leading American story
syndicate. Now comes n neat
volume written by Robert Louis
Stevenson, and called "The Black
Arrow" The curious thing is that
the forgotten tale, the newspaper
serial, and the volume are all three
the same story. That it is an inter
esting tale, worth reading, there is no
gainsaying, but it does seem as if in
this matter the great American pub
lie has not had its full measure offair
play.-The Writer.
