l. Never tell your burdens toll
any one except your maker andI
your wife. "The world hath liz

2. Never complain of your work
If you have merit the world expects
you to be very busy, otherwise it
does not need you.
3. Never find fault with any man
who gives up both time and money
for your town or your community,
No gentlemen will be thus guilty.
4. Never find fault with your
home labor, home merchant, snd|

only means you are doing nothing
to make either better.
S. Never complain even to your
doctor or admit to any body that
you are sick, for ten consecutive

6. Remember that an honest man
never complains of good laws

transfers of water scrip.

Assessor and Collector of Water
Rates Delhi has had a comparatively
quiet week. as in fact. have all of the
city departments. although the trans
fers of water scrip have been above
the average, one transfer of S1,053 be-
ing made yesterday. This amount was
applied upon the water assessment of
the Union Pacific. whose total water
tax for the year was SO more than the
amount named. BY reason of the
heavy transfers of credits and the pay
ment Of assessments with the same
totals represented on the credit or ex-
tension books are rapidly decreasing.
In December. 1898, the books of the
assessor and collector showed a total
credit in favor of the taxpayers of
S226, 9SS, and yesterday the balancing OF
the books showed that this amount
had been cut down to sos 600 during
the thirteen months since December,
1892 When it is taken into considera-
ton that the total costs of extensions
for the year 1898 were also added to
the credit fund the decrease is very
marked. The market price Of the
scrip remains about the same, from SO
10 Go cents. selling al from l5 to so
cents.

been able to find. has ever explained
why Cleopatra should become thus ex-
cited and resentfuI at the mention OF
Herods name. Nearly all of the ammo
tatorS of Shakespeare say that the ref
erence is to a miracle play in which.
Herod, on account of the slaughter of
the innocents, was pictured as a. bogy.
so to speak, and that Cleopatra shared
this sentiment. But here is a para
graph in Josephus which makes the
reference very clear. Herod has come
to Augustus Caesar after the battle
of Actium, and is talking to him about
Antony. In the course of his speech
he says: I gave him the best advice
assist him in the war. I told him
that there was but one way for him to
recover his affairs, and that was to kill
Cleopatra, and / promised him that
if she were dead. I would afford him
money for his credit, but his affection
for Cleopatra stopped his ears
See how plain this makes it, said
Mr.. Warner ''Herod had been advis-
ing Antony to leave Cleopatra, even
if he had to kill her. and naturally
Antony had confided to the Queen the
opinion which Herod had of her. No
Wonder that when his name was men,
toned she expressed herself as ex-
tremely anxious to have his head. At
ter ALL, said Mr. Warner, as he closed
the book, what a wonderful man
Shakespeare was. A line which every
one has thought to be meaningless has
its full value and shows that Shakes
peare was acquainted even with the
details of the lives of the characters
whom he embodied in his play. -

The pay roll of the waterworks de-

amounted to $3.50. there being employ
ed but twenty-five men. The depart
ment has been engaged in making re-
pairs and keeping the source of the
city water supply and the general sys-
tenn of waterworks in a clean and
wholesome condition. No breaks were
reported during the week and no ex-
tensions were made. The city council
has in contemplation the extension of
the mains from their present terminus
near the crematory to the furnace for
the purpose of furnishing fire protec-
ton. A llydrant will be located at
the end of the main and attached to
this will be d piece of hose so that in
case of another fire at the crematory
the men there can handle it. The mat
ter WAS referred to superintendent
Griffin by the city council committee
and last evening that official prepared
a report recommending that the work
be done. The length OF the extension
will be about 600 feet. The annual re-
port Of the superintendent of water
works was completed last night and
