CYRUS w. FIELDS very bright little

There is a gentleman residing on Col
lege avenue who carries a flask; but he Is
a notable exception to the rule of flask
carriers, for the beverage which the flask
contains is not whisky, but aqua pura.
Regularly every morning this gentleman
starts out with his quart bottle filled with
water, and regularly every night he
brings it home-empty. The explanation
for this strange freak is that he does bust
ness in Minneapolis, and is afraid to
drink the water Of that city for fear that
it might bring on an attack of the winter
cholera. Hence he lays in his daily sup
ply of drinking water before starting for
the scene Of his labor.-St. Paul Pioneer

A clever Rogue Now Wanted In

John |. Robinson, or, as he delighted

membered by many Cheyenne people.
Two years ago he plyed his vocation as a
life insurance agent here for several
months and made many friends. Robin
son was Irish and claimed to have wealthy
relatives in Dublin, where he is doubtless
well connected. He sported eyeglasses,
loud plaids and a dog and affected trans
oceanic peculiarities. Robinson will also
be recollected as one Of the most versa
tile and iorgetful liars who ever sojourned
in the Magic City. Several months ago
he married and settled in Omaha. He is
now wanted in both that city and Lincoln
for uttering worthless checks to a large
amount. The wife was cruelty deserted

The best of all remedies for poison ivy
is simply hot water. All other remedies
that have tried and I have tried many
of them only aggravate the poison; but
hot water, MS hot as can be borne, affords
instant relief. 1t must be applied every
hour or two, or as often as the itching re-
turns. In a couple of days a cure is
effected. Poison sumac yields to the
same treatment. The Inflammation, and
with it the itching and burning, are
allayed Mt once. / am poisoned dozens of
times every year, but suffer no inconveni-
ence except the trouble Of applying the
hot water.-John Burroughs in Scientific

MATTER FOR THE LEGISLATURE.

A very interesting case has just been
been decided by Judge Miller OF Denver.
A concert was given on a recent Sunday
evening in the Tabor opera house by the
Carleton Opera company. 1t was adver-
tised as "A sacred concert, and proved
to be highly mcritorious if not strictly
sacred" in character. Warrants were
subsequently issued for the arrest of SEN
ator Tabor and Mr.. Carleton, on the allie
cation that they had violated the law.
They were found guilty and a small fine
imposed. The case was appealed and has
just reached a decision at the hands of
Judge Miller: The action was brought
under section Is OF the ordinances of the
city of Denver, which reads as follows:
IF any person or persons shall give or
hold any theatrical performance, or any
other public exhibition in this city on the
first day Of the week, commonly called
Sunday, they shall, upon conviction
thereof, be fined in the sum of not less
than Eve nor more han fifty dollars"
The defendants demurred to the com
plant and say that the city council had
no authority to pass any such ordinance,
relying upon the constitution of the state
and the laws of Colorado, and many de-
cisions which they cited. They argued
the expediency of the law and many other
things, but the main argument was based
upon the authority Of the city council to
pass such an ordinance.
After entering into the details at some
length Judge Miller sums up the case in
these words: I'm a word, the Sabbath
ran laws in my mind are a branch differ
ent from the mere police regulations.
Police regulations exist in countries which
ignore our Sabbath altogether. They
might exist in this country in all their
force even if the Sabbath was ignored, or
the day of its observance changed. While
hat is the case, | do not believe that a
court in this land ought to render decisions
with an idea that the legislature or
any branch of the government in
tended to ignore the Sabbath. Its observ-
ance arises IRON acommon understanding.
In this country, at least, there is a little
more sacredness thrown around that day
than around any other. IL has been so in
stilled into the American mind that it is
one of the earliest impressions received,
but as a religious ordinance, the protection
that is given to it, as | understand, is a
matter of law. Then, if the legislature
has undeytakcn to protect it by direct en-
actment, | think the safer plan is to let it
stand where the legislature left it, unless
they, by direct enactment, say that they
pass its control to a given body in any
specific locality. So thinking, | think
the demurrer ought to be sustained ac-
cordingly."
After all the talk that has been created
the alleged offense OF Tabor and Carleton
has failed to carry with it any punish.

HER CUCKOO

We heard It calling, sweet and low,
That tender April morn; we stood
And listened In the quiet wood;
We heard 1t, aye, some time ago.
It came, and with a strange, sweet cry
A friend, and from a far of land.
We stood and listened, hand In hand.
And heart TO heart, my love and 1.
o, time far of and yet so neari
1t came to her in that hushed grove;
1t warbled while the wooing throve-
1t sang the song she liked 10 hear.
All, sweet 1t is to hear and heed
The wizard of the woods in spring.;
And obi it is a blessed thing
To love the lips that fondly plead.
And now I hear Its voice again,
And still its message is OF peace,
Z OF fruitful days OF still Increase
1t sings OF love that will not cease
For me 1t never sings In vain.

The man who does not appreciate the
fact that every moment of a newspaper
mans tim is valuable, and that his le-
gitimate duties demand his closest atten-
ton during all of his hours at his desk,
without unnecessary distractions, is a
bore who should never be allowed to enter
n newspaper office. His class. unfortun-
ately is a large one, and makes its pres

paper office. He is one of the biggest
bores known in all the circles of news
