A certain prominent young busi.
ness man OF this town will be able
to celebrate the anniversary OF his
birthday next month. the first time
for four years. and although he is
probably twenty-five years old. he
has never had but half dozen
birth DAYS. 1t looks like he would
have to live about 81 years before
he would be allowed 10 vote. His
birthday, or rather tho anniversary
OF it. comes the last az Of next
month. See What pity some
OF our old maids wasn't born on the
20th of February. 1t would save
them so much uneasiness about
their age and they might claim TO
b. "Sweet Sixteen through the
flower bloom Of sixty.four golden
summers.

The newspaper man has many
pleasant duties to perform, such as

marriages, ETC., where he IS invar.
iably treated to tho best which
money can procure and artistic
culinary art can prepare, and in
return he is expected to reciprocate
on the Blaine reciprocity plan.
There are times, however, when
reciprocity is left out and the re-
porter is kept busy lodging the
gunner, who imngines he has not
been justly dealt with in recent
article, and so it comes to pass that
your friend and adviser of to-day
may be your enemy and pursuer
tomorrow. But the reporter can
not faltcr, the public demand that
he travel on in that pursuit OF the
fleeing news and capture and pub.

always filling long-felt-want ia
the public, publishes the news re.

reporters. So when l arrived at
the ARGUS sanctum on Wednesday
morning the editor said, "Lounger,
the ANGUS has received numerous
inquiries within the last month as
to the whereabouts OF one Julius
Scheer. You will proceed at once
to instigate search and report

The other night as we went to
church, two young ladies were just
in front OF us. they stopped In
the vestibulo to whaug up their
bangs, pull down their vest etc. :,
and we heard one say to the o,her,
" Does your cheeks need pinching?
Let me see." Aud then they
pinched each others checks to bring
color to them aud so were ready for
tho grand entry. This is cheaper.
handler and more harmless than
painting, but still we would be n
little shy of girl who is such an
adept in pinching.

Children Cry for
A NEN ASSOCIATION

A new building and loan ass cia-
ton is being org ,nized in this city
and as it is somewhat different from it's
predecessors it will no doubt become a
success from the start.
It is termed the Mutual Benefit
Building and Loan Association and
shsres are sold at 500 each. The
dues are only so cents per month and
the idea is to absolutely secure tor
those who are n need Of homes an adj
vantage which they cannot overlook.
1t is certainly poor business manage.
ment which permits man to 60 on
year after year paying rent. while the
same amount of money invested with
such associations As the Mutual Bene-
fit, would soon secure a home.
Every man owes it to his family to
give it home il nothing more ami in
no way can this the better he ace M
plished than through reliable build
ing and loan association. Such an
association is the Mutual Benefit,
the b ard of managers are perfec ly
r,liahle, and among the most promi-
nent residents of the city. The new
associations advertisement will be
found in another column of this pa
per.

A DARK DEED
A Young COlOred Baby Found in
An Out House.

On last Saturday, George Mock,
Who lives on the corner of Sixth and
Washington streets, discovered the
decomposed body of q colored infant
in the water closet at home. The
officials were informed and the body
brought to Collins & Farnham's
where an inquest was be-
gun at two o'clock this
evening, and is still in progress. The
body is that, presumably, of a full
grown child. at birth.
Fannie York, q colored woman,
who lives in an adjoining house, was
arrested, with suspicion pointing very
strongly as to it being her child and
that she was guilty of
having put it in the
vault. The woman's reputation ia not
of the very best and it had been whis.
pered around weeks previous that she
had committed this deed. In fact, the
matter was up before the grand jury
but no satisfactory evidence could be
and the case was dropped.
