New Money Orders.

The new money order blanks which
have been received at the Watertown
postoffice will in a measure thWart the
plans of counterfeiters. The new
blanks are white, and similar in design
to express money orders, the amount
of the order being indicated by figures
remaining on the end of the blank af-
ter the others have been torn away by
the clerk. This does away with all dang
er of an order being raised, for while
the sum called for may be lessen ed
by numbers being cut off, there is no
possible manner in which the amount
can be increased after the order has
been made out. The new system will b e
putin general use the 1st Of July. After
that time the fees for issuing money
orders at the postoffice will be reduced
according to an act of congress ap-
proved January 27, 1894. Following
are the new rates For orders not
exceeding $3.50, cents; $3.50 to So, 3
cents; S. to $40, 8 cents; $40 to $50, 10

The Twenty-Ninth's Re1Inion,

Last Thursday the survivors of the
Twenty-ninth Wisconsin infantry held
their ninth reunion in this city, Con-
cordIa Opera house being the place of
meeting. The registry showed an at
tendance Of sixty members Of the regi-
ment. The morning hours were spent
in renewing old acquaintances and re-
telling war occurrences, and in the
afternoon the business meeting was
held, with the president, Colonel G..
w. Burchard, Of Fort Atkinson, in the
chair. After the transaction of the u.s.
ual routine business officers for the
ensuing year were chosen, as follows /:
President, DR.. w. G. Spalding, of this
city; vice-president, D. W. Scobie, of
Cambridge; secretary, j. w. Latin, Of
Milwaukee; treasurer, Captain 0. L.
Ray, of Lake Mills. the latter two being
reflections. Several letters from COM
rades unable to attend the meeting
were read and ordered printed in the
book of proceedings. There having
been no definite programme arranged
for entertainment, the social portion
OF the reunion was of an informal
character, but was nevertheless thor
oughly enjoyable to the veterans, all of
whom succeeded in having a pleasant
time. 1t was voted to have next years
meeting in this city, subject to the call
of the officers. The regiment having
been largely formed in this vicinity
Watertown herself furnishing a COM
pany-makes this city most desirable
place of congregation and it is possible
that it may be decided upon as the
permanent reunion seat.

TO the average beholder he would
readily have been taken for a man-of-all-
work, doing odd jobs from door to door,
thrifty and respectable, and that's what a
distinguished woman thought as he
popped in at the back cato and approach
ed her with confidence.
Good morning, ma'am, he said quiet
ly. Have you any wood to saw to-day?
No, she replied, not unkindly; it was
all sawed yesterday and put away.
Any coal you want taken in the cellar?
No, but we may have some tomorrow.
You have no grass to cut, Isupposef
Oh, no, she said it's to late for
that.
Are there any ashes OF garbage you
want carried out?
No, We have that done by contract.
And there's nothing at all about the
place you want dones
Nothing to-day, she said sympatheti-
cally.
No work of any kind?
Not lick.
Thank heaven for that ma'am! he
calculated fervently, give me some cold
meat and bread and piece of pie. I'm
nearly hungry enough to have worked for
it.

the battle and he got the grub.-Detroit
