After choosing for his comic paper, the
other day, vigorously righteous text, Col.
Editorial Freak Shepard went to his club
to mediate. There he found that several
members were In arrears, and with the
lively instincts of true Jenkyns he rushed
back to his office and "wrote up" that start
ling news. His text that day read thus:
"The light of the righteous rejoiceth, but
the lamp of the wicked shall be put out. I"
When the governing committee of the
club saw how the good elder had be-
trayed the secrets of the club they seemed
disposed to regard him in the nature of
lamp Of the wicked" and felt strongly
inclined to put him out of the club. In
ransacking the scriptures the good editor
doesn't seem to have stumbled upon the
saying of st, Paul, that, "What is true is
not always expedient"

Yesterdays Election.

There was comparatively little interest in
yesterdays election, and therefore there
was very light vote pollsd in all parts Of
the state, except in few localities in which
there was opposition. Mr.. Northern will
soon be iaaugurated as governor. and there

Took on an expression all new
AS she turned the sheet in an endeavor
To get, ir she could, rare view
She then turned the sheet backed in position
And looked combined anger and woe:
Her brow filled with wrinkled suspicion
There was something she wanted to know.
On the first page a wreck and a murder
Stared, each with thrilling black head.
And the stories of sundry divorces
Were all waiting there to be read
But all were passed by quite uunoticed>
No interest to her mind had they,
And she stared at the spot in the paper
With eyes that would not turn away
