-"Brick" Trimmer, of the Quinter Re
publican, was IN town few days ago. He
bought some lemons to take home to
sweeten his better half-we think about
half bushel. We don't know how he
explained it to his wife after he got home,
but the facts are these: He was busy
trying to swap Lee Monroe "Quinter
brick" for land notices and had to strike
$40 gait to catch the rear end of the
Pullman as the train was leaving. He
made it, but in swinging himself, up in
some unaccountable way he reversed ends
and shed lemons all the way to the water
tank west of town. Never mind, Brick"
The lemons we're good.

Mysterious Disappearance.

On last Wednesday morning Chas.
Benedict had large load Of melons
piled up in front Of his fruit store. A
little later WORLD reporter, in passing
by, noticed that they had almost entirely
disappeared and at once gave the alarm.
An investigation, however, proved that
they had not been stolen but simply sold
80 cheap that Charlie couldn't keep them.

The removal of DR.. F. 81. Conger left

However, Offices do not go begging in

pointment by Governor Humphrey OF G.
E. Cosby, of the WORLD. The judicial

our new appellation, just speak again
with the rising infection. We hope to
get used to it soon.

Missing Only For a Time.

Sooner or later the shadow of death
falls across the threshold of every home.
The sentence of "unto dust We shall re-
turn" Is upon us all. There is no appeal
from this great law of nature. We -four
ish and fade as the leaves of the forest;
and the flower that blooms and withers
in day has no frazier hold upon life than
the mightiest monarch that ever shook
the earth with its footsteps.
Men seldom think of the great event Of
death until its shadow falls across their
own pathway, hiding from their mortal
eyes the faces OF loved ones whose living
smile was the light of their existence.
None but those who have lost child
can know how heavy and sad are the
hearts of our friends and neighbors, Mr..
and Mrs. Charles II. Gibbs over the loss
of their little darling Grace, whom the
dark angel claimed on the early morning
of the 18th, casting its gloom over their
home and hearts. But four days before
little Grace was full of health and inno-
cent childish glee. when the dread disease
of scarlet fever claimed her, and now all
that remains is the thought that
Thou art now angel pure
AndI thy mother, stIlL''
No words of ours can in any way dimin-
ish their grief and We can only quote
those words of old: at is well with the
child" and while there is no human love
like that of a mother for her child, yet
even she may find comfort in the thought
that little Grace, her treasured only
daughter, fragrant with the dew of youth,
has been transplanted to bloom for aye
amid celestial bowers.
The funeral took place on Sunday at
100 P. NJ. Only few friends attended
the little white casket to its last resting
place, although scores of willing hands
and sympathizing hearts were kept away
only by the thoughts of the duty they
owed to their own little ones at home in
not exposing them to this dread destroyer.
The parents have the sympathy of the
entire community.

particular smaEtness if they can discover
an error in a newspaper. When some
people find Eord with q wrong letter IN

Several to)n@ n,&u were in south
end resort one evening lately. shaking
for the drinks, says the Boston Globe,
when suddenly one of the fellows, a
young man who is reckoned as one of
the coming lights of the political arena,
said, Let me take that dicebox a
minute.
1t was handed over to him, and, taking
out four or five dice which were in it, he
handed them to the barkeeper and
turning the box on one end he placed the
remaining dice on it, and taking his hat
from his head covered the box and dice
with it.
where is that dice now?" he asked
one of the men standing about.
"On top of the box, of course" was
it since you put the hat down.
81 have not, said the young politician.
and he lifted the hat again, and, suro
enough, there sat the dice on the box,
just as it had been before.
He set the hat down again and took
his hands away from it, while he asked
the same question he had in the first
instance.
ION top of the box, of course" repeated
the man who had been questioned.
"You saw it there, did your"
Certainly"
"Would you bet that it is on the top
of the box?"
"Of course l would"
"Pll bet you dollar that it isn't where
you say it is.
"All right, and the men put up their
money.
The first man lifted his hat, and there
sat the dice as before. what did l tell
you?" exclaimed tn" second. 1--WE won.
There is the dice on top of the box.
Hold on min to-" exclaimed the
young politician. when you come to
think of it, wouldn't it be rather diff
cult task to set up dice on the top of
dice-box, when there is only a very
narrow edge to set it on? If you will
look carefully you will see that that dice
is resting on the bottom of the box in
8 ad of the top. guess the money is
mine. Mr. Stakeh II.
~That's so, exc .med the other man
who had bet, at is on the bottom of the
box, isn't it?"

winner to the VIII e. but it's sure to
catch ninety-nine people out of every

tn Ruy Actors Real Chnnpapne.

An eccentric old lady has just died,
leaving to the Association of French
Dramatic Artists the sum of $4,000,
which is to be invested and the interest
expended in providing real champagne
for the guests at stage banquets. No
doubt the old dame had been touched by
the unsatisfed expression of the "su-
pers" enjoying theatrical good cheer,
and felt pang at the recolle, ton when
eating her dainty little supper. She might
have left her money more protitably.
Food, for instance, would be greater
charity to these members of the rank
and file of the theatrical profession than
real champagne, which is scarcely
likely to be of the very best, and which
