A SMALL BOYS REVENGE.
He Creates a T amiiy Row over His Fathers
PRETTY TyDewriter

f1etty typewriter.
A good story is told on a certain well
known lawye', who now has one Of his
daughters to manipulate his typewriter in
stead of the winsome blonde whe was form
erly a handsome piece of furniture in the
office. The change came about In this way:
One day his l0-year-old son wandered into
his office just as the legal light was examin-
ing letter WI ltten by the hired amanuensis
In order to read the letter it was necessary
for the lawyer to bend over the back of the
young lady's chair The youngster looked at
his parent, took in the situation, and then
said: PA, want quarter"
I'm busy now, don't bother me, boy" said
the father, and he continued to hang over the
shapely shoulder of the fair typewriter and
peruse the letter which she held in her hand.
PA" said the boy again. 81 want a quarter.
You'd better give it to me and I'll clear out. u
Don't worry me, l tell you," said the
father. Cam you see that ! am busyf'
The youngster didn't say any more, but
just hung around the office. He looked out
of the window and counted the white horses
as they went by; he emptied some sand into
an inkstand, and then thickened the COM
pound with mucilage, and did a lot of other
mischievous tricks such as will only suggest
themselves to l0-year-old boy. But he kept
close watch on the governor and typewriter,
and every nov and then would shrug his
shoulders, n uch as to say: I'm get even
with you"
Finally the lawyer was ready to go home,
and taking his little boy by the hand, they
walked to then modest appearing but hand
somely furnished residence. Very little was
said on the way and the father was evidently
nettled at what he considered the misbehavior
of his son. When the family sat down to din
ner he narrated the circumstances to his wife
and she sternly told the young man that if he
could not behave himself she would not let
him go down To his fathers office again.
The boy didn't seem to mind that much
and finally said, as he balanced his fork on his
forefnger: Perhaps | was somewhat rude
and impatient, but, mamma, if you'd seen pa
lean over that pretty typewriter and play
with her bangs and whisper in her ear, you'd
have thought he'd been glad to give me g
quarter 10 get ne out of the way. l never
knew how much pa was stuck on her before"
The youngster was sent away from the
table in disgrace, and he subsequently re
ceived striking evidence of a parents wrath
| but there was slso an agreement between the
parents that resulted in the dismissal of the
fair typewriter the following day Washing

sterling Gazette remarks:


"A printer stood at the desk of busi-
ness man the other day and noticed him
using letter and bill heads bought at an
eastern house. Said the printer, who
was customer, what would you think
of me If / were to go east and buy your
line of goods for myself and familyS'
The merchant replied: Il would think
you fool when you Can get the goods
just as cheap from me and aid fellow
citizen" When the printer called his at
tention to the imported letter and bill
heads, the merchant coughed and went
behind the counter to wait upon cus>
toner. And the same merchant only q
few days before asked the printer to give
him free puff about his big stock of
new goods"

Their Practices.

The Government proposes TO STOP
Their Practices.
At the meeting of the Chamber Of
Commerce in the month of May, George
FL. Peck called attention to the fact that
the headwaters Of many of the mountain
streams were being taken up by people
who we're locating claims and shutting off
the water from those below. He wanted
the attention of the authorities at Wash
ington called to this fact before any more
damage was done through the divertng
of the course of streams. He was ap-
pointed committee of one to confer with
the Secretary of the Interior. His letter
was sent to sent to Senator w. ii.
Stewart, of Nevada, the Chairman OF the
Committee on the Arid Land Survey. In
response the Senator says:
"Your resolution requesting Secretary
Noble to withdraw from sale the water
sheds in the mountain ranges, is in the
right direction, but l am glad to inform
YOU that every place suitable for a reser-
yoir and line Of canals is already reserved.
Persons who attempt to acquire title to
land 81 table for reservoir sites on the
mountains, or anywhere on the public
lands, must do so at their peril, because
whatever is necessary for such purpose
is already reserved, and when the sur
yeys are made they will be set apart.
This deem very important, inasmuch
as there is a disposition to take possession
of every available locality for reservoirs
for storing water. 1t ought to have been
done many years ago, but it is better late
than never"

failed to meet yesterday owing to the
fact that no quorum was present. Hervey

and waited some time for MIR. Hazard to
appear. At last he telephoned that he
was busy with the Fourth of July Com

same time and announced that he could
not be relieved from attendance at the

have to get along without him. This LETT
no quorum and the other two members
adjourned.
No business of importance would have
been transacted had the Board met.
