Get There, Eli.

SECT there, Eli" The by-word, "Get there,
Eli" originated with Eli Perkins twenty years
ago. His frantic trips through ice and snow
and flood, often crossing the whole length of a
state on a special train to fill a lecture engage
ment, suggested to the boys the expression.

Eli Perkins, who is a vestryman in an up
town church, in the absence of a S n d a y
school teacher, kindly offered to take her
class in the Sabbath school. After teaching
the class four weeks MIR. Perkins was pre-
scented with a Bible by his class. People can
draw their own inferences.-N. Y. Tribune.
A saving of at least $500 per annum would
result to the city if the present salaries of Off
Gals were cut down to a reasonable point, or
Cne-halt what they are now receiving. And,
if the fines were properly and legally imposed
and collected, our school treasury would be in
much better shape. McCook is ripe for some
reformation in municipal matters.
We hear it mentioned that the mayor would
like to be member of the school board. We
regret sincerely that a person cannot be mayor
and member of board of education at one and
the same time. The mayor is properly con
s%tituted to create more trouble on the school
board than perhaps any man in the district.
But we surely cannot dispense with his ser
vices as mayor, next spring. The thought is
appalling, preposterous!
To thoroughly prepare himself for his lee

a kodak in one hand and a pencil in the other.
While travelling he wrote syndicate letters to
fifty newspapers. Since returning he has
about finished a book on Japan. His lecture

NEW YORK. April 30.-The operators
who III Sugar have been engineering the
recent advance In these shares took Oc.
caSiOn this morning to give the shorts
light squeeze. The time was propitious
for the venture, as there were some
good buying orders on the exchange,
and few, if any, sellers. The opening
quotation, as recorded, was 1051a91O61,
the purchasing being too brisk TO allow
the intervening prices to be obtained
by the official press. Heavy blocks of
buying being encouraged by renewed
assurances from Washington to the eff
feet that refined sugar would be prop
erly protected When 1861 was
touched there was some realiz-
iZiIg, causing reaction to 1867.
The lower figures induced fresh
buying, and an advance was made to
1925. which was 25s above the closing
figure of Saturday. In the final dealings
there were sales to realize profits, which
sent the price down ~ per cent, leav-
ferred stock sold up 2115 to 95115 reaching
81 per cent at the close. Chicago Gas
was affected unfayorably by the report
that an application by the company for
an injunction to restrain the attorney
general OF Illinois from bringing the
quo warranto suit had been denied. IA
runor was also current to the effect
that the Mutual Fuel and Gas company
would he given d franchise to extendits

sale in the early dealings on reports that
the regular dividendlwould have to be

March statement, which is overdue, gave
color of the truth to the report. and the
stock declined 17s, when supporting
