SAND IS HEA1.THrUL.
Cincinnati Furnishes Great Piles OF
for the Children TO Play In.

Some time ago when an item went the
rounds of the press about the large num-
Der of bow-legged children In Cincinnati,
it was suggested that sand piles should
provided for the children TO play in. The
sand pile idea has been adopted not only
for the bow-legged children but for all
the little tots, and promises to be carried
to a novel extent. Many of the school
yards have now in one corner large piles
OF sand in which the little tots roll and
play to their hearts content.
Care is taken to provide clean sand
secured from one of the bars in the
Ohio river, and 1t Is changed often
enough TO make it perfectly healthful.
II is declared TO be the healthiest thing
possible for children to play in. and some
doctors have advised the making of mud
pies as regular prescription for puny
youngsters. They say there is nothing
like contact with Mother Earth. and
that II the children do not get healthful
sand or dirt to play in they Will wallow
in the gutter or yards and be contami-
mated with all sorts of disease germs.

MITCHELL REPUBLICANS. +"
Filed Acceptances of the Nominations in
Portland Yesterday.

Portland. April 23-Certificates OF nom
lnation of the candidates OF the Carey
faction OF the Republican party, as far
as state, district and county officers go,
were filed In the office OF the county
clerk today under the title OF Mitchell
Republicans" No city ticket was hled,
probably because the withdrawal Of W.
s Mason has left them no candidate for
mayor.
As is well known. an attempt was made
few days since to file the nominations
under the title of Regular Republicans"
but the county clerk refused to accept
this title, as the regular Republican,
ticket had already been filed. The fac
tion therefore adopted the title OF
Mitchell Republicans" which was ac-
nented.

a North Side man tells this story: Last
week he stood In Cont OF his uncom-
pleted HAT building and chafed and wor-
ried as be saw the poky laborers so about
their work as II the place wasn't TO be
turned over during the first week in May
Tho men who carried I'm the brick ana
tiling from the street were especially an
noying TO the owner OF the building. They
moved about at sleepy and turtle-like
pace, and did not appear to be worried
In the least, when their slowness was the
cause OF delay on the inside work.
While the North Side man was watch
ing them In disgust an Italian with a
barrel organ halted just across the way
and began grinding out a lively march.
He had been playing for several minutes
before the North Side man observed the
marvellous effect OF the music on the men
who were carrying the brick. They
came out OF the building like circus
horses In grand entree, hurriedly filed
their hods and then marched back into
the building at double quick. stepping
high. The owner OF the building went
across the street and gave the italian
a quarter in return for which he played
lively tunes for a half hour During
that half hour the laborers did a halt
days work.
Next day the owner ran across another
italian and sent him over to the corner

The laborers didn't know what a mean
trick had been played on them.
