remarks:
There was no election OF mayor or senator
in Providence last Tuesday. With the eXcep-
tion OF the mayor the Democrats elected their
city ticket, but the Republicans have each
branch of the City Council, which shows
where the men who make Providence what IL
is In real property aud prosperity stand when
they are forced 10 vote on partisan grounds
alone. Such was the position into which the
taxpayers were driven by the Tclendms
style OF campaign. That paper appears fated
TO deal in Misrepresentation and abuse who
ever may be at its helm, for ID was this same
sheet that scandalized the city i'm trying to
defeat the late Mayor Doyle for n reelection.
The attacks of the telegram upon Mayor

officer can always do as he would like, es-
pecially In dealing with separate items of ad-
ministration, because il is his duty to
have in view the result of his ad =
ministration az n whole. lt Is therefore an
easy matter for the opposition to find fault
and pcddlo out lies to the thOughtless citizen,
who has not yet learned that newspapers Of
men who have less care for the prosperity Of
the community than the men about whom
they are lying.
La Providence, rs elsewhere in the State,
personal politics is breaking up both the great
parties. The want-to-be bosses" are anxious
get n chance 10 run around with banner
inscribed, I'VE are the People,: but the
people persist in protesting against such trans
fer of this trust by defeating the election. At
vote OF Providence will be as strongly Repub-
lican for mayor and senator as was the tax
paying vote Tuesday for Republican members
of the city council.

THANKSGIVING OR FEAsTING,
The rooster in the hen-house,

The rooster in the hen-house,
The turkey In the yard,
The duck upon the water,
The black hen scratching hard,
The tough old gander waddling,
The piglet at its play,
The rabbit In the wildwood,
The squirrel fat and gray,
Each woke one morning signing.
"Thanksgiving Day Is near,
And that has but one meaning
The end of my career"
Then came n small bird chirping,
"a sparrow Z was, they say
"NNhat fools you are to stand i'll
Why don't you run awayr"
A great commotion followed.
"I'll CO." each gladly cried,
"To some green spot sequestered,
Where may safely hide"
Their threats were executed,
And on that day, Z Is said,
There were no glad Thanksgivings.
But curses deep, instead.
20 hoi" the sparrow twitterd,
And winked his beady eyes;
"Men care not for Thanksgiving,
II is but the feast they prize.

her on bobtail Car last summer. She
was standing up and holding damp

holding on by strap and starting the
gathers in her skirt good deal. Her

rabbit tail to it which hunched up more
and more as we moved along, and ex-
tended out over the dashboard, as l may
say, like the .tin, anti-caterpillar over
skirt on the giant elms of Boston Com
mon.
Her hair also was becoming disar-
ranged, and one could see a sediment of
saleratus ON her flushed scalp. She did
not know whether to let her hair come
down or ask some total stranger to hold
the dog. At that moment the car gave
great lurch, and with sob she sat down
in the lap Of man with raspberry
nose and deeply dyed anthracite whis-
kers. AS | came away she was still sit

A Rival of the Famous strasburg Clock

A Rival of the Famous Strasburg Clock.
The most wonderful clock is on exhi-
bition in the parochial school building
connected with ST. Paul's German Lu-
theran church in GAINESVILLE, Wis.
The timepiece is divided into four
Photographed, astronomical, mu-
steal and numerical. A little bell strikes
every minute. The first quarter hour
represents childhood; the second, youth;
the third, middle age, and the fourth,
old age. As the clock strikes the hours
a corresponding number of apostles make
their appearance, from one to twelve.
Above them stands Jesus blessing them.
The twelve signs of the zodiac are rep
resented At and IL O'clock a sexton
rings bell, an old man kneels in prayer,
the cock crows and the organ is played.
There are four dials on each side of the
clock, showing the years on one side and
the leap years on the other.
At midnight heather gods make their
appearance, and scenes in the life of
Jesus are represented at monday. The
four seasons are represented by appro-
pirate figures, as are the moons phases.
The clock was built by Mr. Martin,
millwright, of Schwarzwald, Baden, and
is said to exceed in ingenuity any other
clock ever exhibited in the United
States.-Jeweler's Weekly.
