A SLIGHT MISTAKE-This is an in
stance where bad cold caused a
startling conversation. A modest
young pop newspaper man at Sharon
Springs, in the county of Wallace,
in the state of Kansas. was invited TO
a party at the residence where the
home had recently been blessed
with an addition to the family. Ac-
companied by his best girl he met
his hostess at the door, and after
customary salutations asked after
the baby. The lady was suffering
from a severe cold, which made her
slightly deaf, and she mistakinglv
supposed that the young man was
inquiring about her cold. She re
piled that though she USUALLY had
one every winter this was the worst
she had ever had; it kept her awake
at night a good dea, at first and con-
fined her TO her bed, Then noticing
hat the scribe was becoming pale
and nervous, she said that she could
see by his looks that he was going
to have one just like hers and asked
him If he wished 10 lie down. The
paper came out the next week, but
the editor has given up inquiring
about babies and will move his news
paper to Iowa.
Four cars Of coal were received in
Wa-Keeney this week and distrlbut-
ed to 90 families of the county.

ALL on ONE DAY IN THE SPRING

Tuesday. April 9. the Tenth District VIII
Choose q Congressman ~ Well as Munic-

Skirmish.
Gov. Altgeld has fixed Tuesday,
April 2, the date of the municipal
and township elections, as the day
for holding the special election in
the Tenth congressional district to
choose a successor to the late Gen. p.
S. Post. While it has been expected
that the governor would select this
date and thus combine both elections
and save the counties involved the
expense of separate contests, the def
mite action in the matter will serve
as the signal for the skirmish to
commence. This will be particular
ly notable within the ranks of the
republican party, where W. H. Gest,
H. A. Ainsworth, F. H. Caldwell,
George w. Prince and Clark Z. Carr
have been on the anxious seat for
some time.
Calling of Conventions.
Henry limerick, of Galesburg,
chairman OF the republican congress
sional committee of the Tenth dis

meeting of the committee at the Har-
per next Monday to take the situa-
ton into serious consideration
Then. it will be. that the various
candidates will measure swords, and
4 call is likely to be issued for the
convention, and it is not unlikely
that DIR. Kinyon may repeat his last
summers speech for Gest when at
the first meeting of the congressional
committee of the new district he at
tempted to seize time by the fore
lock. A little later we will hear
from Chairman Collins-if the board
of supervisors can spare him long
enough-and then for the fray.

The Drury Toll Road.

The Muscatine News-Tribune.
speaking of the success of the Drury
toll road. by which the people of the
lower end of Rock Island county are
assisted in going to Muscatine. saws:
"Supt. Lillibridge is engaged in
paying off the first annual dividend
of six per cent to the stockholders of
the Drurv Toll Road company. The
certificates of stock of this corpora
ton were issued Feb. l, 1894, and
six per cent interest was guaranteed.
and though some of the subscribers
for stock had their misgivings as to
whether the earnings of the toll road
would equal the amount of annual
interest guaranteed, these doubts are
happily dispelled as they slip the in
terest ducats into their jeans. The
toll road was opened May 1. 1894. so
that the earnings from which this in
terest is paid represent only what
has been taken in during nine
months time, so that it will be seen
that the receipts for a full year will
more than meet the guaranteed in
terest on stock. 1t might be noted
incidentally that some toll stock
changed hands yesterday and was
sold at par. This is certainly graf
flying showing for the first nine
months, and is sufficient to indicate
the future success of the toll road,
which will undoubtedly become q
free highway in the period desig-
mated by the company's charter"
This is furnished on the argument
in support of the proposition to build
a good road down the river to the
lower end.
