THE CITY ELECTION !
To Be a Close Rub on the Mayer
Question.
The Fire Ladies' Are Warm About
Some Things.
WHY HEARTT SHOULD BE ELECTED
Friends Rustling for Their Preferred Can
didates and a Close and Il xciting
Time Predicted.

1t is a struggle-a hustle and ots Of
button holeing now.
The friends of Peay say that he will
be elected mayor, because he deserves it :;
because Christian is a standing candidate
and is opposed to schools and progres
sion. Many men are at work, and in
earnest for Peay, and the whole mass
meeting ticket.
On the other hand Christian has his
followipg-large and strong, and those
who claim to know something about the
politics of the town say that it will be
close-closer than any election held for
long time.
A year ago Angler beat Christian just
81 votes, and while the vote was not
large Christin's friends say that it shows
that he has many friends who are deter
mined to see him made mayor again.
Both are good citizens-sound and sub,
stantial, so there is no mud throwing
it is TO be a mere test of personal popu-
larity.
1t is said that the fire boys are after
Leo Heartt, because he opposed an ap.
preparation for them. For this reason
every man in town should see to it that
Heartt is elected. He had sense enough
to refuse to vote little sum of money tc
be squandered. He favors anything that
is wise legislation-but he is not in favor
of pouring money into a rat hole.
If we are to pay fremen, let US employ
firemen to fight fires and do nothing else
This idea of appropriating money to vol
unteer fire companies is as bad as throw
| ing it away. 1t is all right to buy then
hose and apparatus, and help them al
in that way-but to dole out a salary of {
| few dollars month makes the service ne
better. And for Heartt's level headed
views on that subject, and all others, ht
should be elected.
w. H. Proctor will make good run, i
is said Lineberry will be elected.
There will be big fight on some O.
the commissioners, and as it is only few
days-wait!

An American girl who has lived
in Paris declares that that great
metropolis is absolutely provincial
and countrifed in many respects.
Here i'll Chicago one may go her
way undisturbed, though she wears
a tub on her head, but there one
has to subscribe to the traditions.
The girl i'll question tells how at
one time she bought pretty little
red cap, very much like Tam
O'Shanter, in the Latin quarter.
Naturally, having bought it, she
put it on her head and went out.
Now it seems that these particular
hats were worn only by men, though
the fact did not dawn upon the
American girl until she found her
self with following of small boys,
who hooted at and gibed her, and
men who spoke rudely to her and
women who laughed tempestuously.
1t really looked as if she would
have to call a closed carriage in
order to get home alive, but she
suddenly bethought her of a more
speedy and economic plan. She
snatched off the offending cap,
rolled it in her hand, and went on
bareheaded. At once she ceased to
be an object of attention. The
grisette, you see, often goes bare
headed, even when she is very
nicely dressed, and so, disguised as
a grisette, the frank and free
young Yankee maiden" got home
in beautiful safety.
She never donned that cap again
while she remained in Paris-never.
But when she returned to her native
heath she wore it complacently,
and still wears it when the fancy
seizes her, and no one looks at it
twice or seems to care. Where
upon Paris seems countrifed by
contrast, or so she says.

A Syracuse man named La Tulip
has invented cannon known as
the La Tulip rawhide gun, of which
great things are expected. One of
the guns, made by its inventor, was
tested at Onondaga Valley on Tues
day. 1t weighs in the neighbor-
hood of 400 pounds, while the
cannon of the same caliber in use
by the army weighs nearly 1900.
Its popularity lies in its lightness
and the easy manner i'll which it
can be transported. Across the
breach it measures about fourteen
inches, and tapers to about six at
the muzzle.
A forged steel cone forming the
barrel runs to the full length, and
is only three-quarters of an inch in
thickness. Then comes layer after
layer of the finest rawhide, COM
pressed until it has the strength of
steel. In fact, its toughness and
staying powers are said to exceed
steel. The rawhide is put on in
strips coiled around and around and
is several inches in thickness. On
top of this lie two coils of steel
wire, wound to its strongest ten
sion and then filed smooth. The
cap placed at the breech can be
easily removed for inspection Of the
