A DEMOCRAT reporter was in Nugents
drug store few days ago observing his
aquarium and remarked that the frogs
ought to be provided with some young
chickens for their dinner, telling how ne
had caught o frog with large chicken
in it's mouth. The cries of the chicken
having attracted the reporters attention
he went to its rescue and found some
difficulty in extricating it from the
capacious NAV OF the frog: On leaving
Nugent's gentleman sitting there ask
ed who the person was relating sncn
wonderful story, on being INFORMED that
he was newspaper man the gentleman
remarked that If he was anything else
he would have believed the story. The
with some little chicks for the purpose
of convincing the unbellevlng world
that newspaper man can tell the
truth.
So
ment," according to the Republican,
'says that the talk ABOUT Alderman
French being over paid for his work OF
collecting back debts of the city is all
fol-de-rol. Over $4,000 has thus far
been collected by him. AT most the rate
for collection will not exceed 10 per
cent. A lawyer for this class OF debts
would charge from 20 to 90 per cent Tor
collecting and would not obtain as much
as Mr. French"
Nice talk, this. for one who is sup
posed to carefully guard the interests of
the people. Section 10 OF the city char :
iec+or among other things saws oSaid
COLLECTOR shall also in like manner col.
lect ali assessments of benefits on owners
Of real estate made by the court of com.

niementarv ordinance was passed giving
fho c;tv attornav nower to collect sewer
assassn,ents and until Alderman French

Getting off horse car in the right
way is such a simple thing that it il
strange that everyone has not mastered
it by this time-everyone who lives in
the city at any rate. Nevertheless g
large number of people. especially
women, persist in getting off the wrong
way, TO the danger OF their limbs and to
the frequent wreckage or the loose pro
perty in the way OF bundles which they
may be carrying. Sensible persons, o.
course, face the way the car is going
