that were being inflicted upon the
people of Lincoln county. BY ne'
er firing energy and indefatigable
courage, they have brought quiet
and order out Of chaos, but as we
are not entirely out of the woods,
they should be retained in office for
two years more.
For Probate Judge, ex-officio
school supt., Stanley Hageman was
the nominee. Mr.. Hageman is
particularly htted for these import
ant offices, being young man, a
graduate of the Ohio State Univer-
sity, and one of the best school
teachers in Idaho. That the public
school, the bulwark of our nation---
would superintendent, by Mr.. Hago
man, to the satisfaction of all, is
assured beyond question.
For Coroner and Surveyor, DR..
w. II Baugh and Frank w. Allen
were nominated, they are the best
fitted men in the county for these
positions as the Doctor can tell his
juries how, when, where a person
came to his death, and whether he
is really dead or not, and Frank
can tell us whether we are infring-
ing upon the boundaries of our
neighbors or they upon ours as we'll
as perform all the many duties of
that office.
For County commissioners, In
district No l Thomas Fay was NOM
mated and for district No 2 James
l.. Fuller was the choice, both of
whom were the unanimous select
ton of the convention. This state |
of affairs was brought about by the |
fact that these gentlemen are
thoroughly conversant with all of
legal com plications that exist be-
tween this county and Blaine coun-
ny. That these gentlemen should
be retained in office is to the inter
,st OF every taxpayer in the county.
There are suits and claims against
his county that aggregate much
,ver one hundred thousand dol
airs, and that the men who have
ollowed and forced the fight from
S inception, are bet ter Iosted up
IN, and better qualified to continue
he fight, than a man who is not,
nd who might have to learn at the
Expense of the taxpayers, is con-
eeded. Both men have proven

nd the finger of reproach can not

with light blue ribbons. The carriage
of the animal bespoke the dignifed
artist. Mounted on the stool, the music
before it, the dog began to pat the keys
at a signal from his master, and the
notes of sentimental and well-known
love song filed the house, also an occa-
sional howl from the dog. The people
declared it might be possible to train
the dog to sing. as several of his notes
were in accord with the music. At
the finish the applause was deafening,
and both master and dog made
several courtesies. The professor did
something to the interior of the piano,
and when the long-haired poodle again
patted the keys, the mournful opening
of lie Miserere" greeted their ears.
Would the wonderful animal render
that difficult duet?" was asked all over
the house. He did not. His hair
creeped into his eyes, and he took his
paws from the key board to wipe his
face. The piano played on. At mo-
ton from his master the dog leaped
from the stool and followed him
through the back door. The train was
ut the station not very distant, and the
pair caught it just in time.
The instrument was an electric piano,
and II has been used ever since in the
Sunday school OF the church at Topeka.

BASEBALL.

If San Antonio wants a baseball
team for next season now is the time
to do something.
The people must remember that
those at the head of the movement
are in it only for glory, and in order
that this precious thing shall not be
monopolized by only few it is desir-
Gus that everybody take hand in it.
There are two thousand tickets on
sale at 80 cents each, good for one
game. These tickets must be sold
this week, in order to raise advance
money for players, which will be $3.50
at least. Then there will be railroad
transportation, which will be about
$500. Besides this there will be the
assessment to be paid to the Texas
Association, uniforms for the team,
besides many incidental expenses.
1t will require all of 81, 900 to cover
this, and the only way to do it is for
the people of San Antonio to put up
the money at once.
San Antonio has yet the first player
to sign, while the other cities have
about completed their teams.

Apropos of the stories now going the
rounds Of the press about trained dogs
playing tunes on pianos and other mu-
steal instruments, Mr.. A. o. Gage, for
merly hotel keeper at Topeka, Kan,
tells another and different kind of a
story Of a piano-playing dog. 1t was
several years ago, when a theatrical
troupe, consisting of a man, a dog and n
piano, appeared in Topeka, and the
town was billed from courthouse to sub
urb announcing the dog pianist. The
dog could play any old thing, from
Down Went McGinty" to the overture
from "Tannhauser" or the Twelfth
Hungarian Rhapsodies"-so the bills
said. Three performances were to be
given, the third for the benefit of the
building fund of local church. The
man, dog and piano had started on o.
tour of Kansas from some point un-l
known, and he and the dog created a
sensation everywhere they made one
night stand. Their fame had preced-
ed them. Part of the dog owners du-
ties were to solicit one or two local vo-

The first two performances were fair

raked in goodly lot of shekels. The
third night-the occasion of the bene-
fit for the church-the auditorium was
crowded. Many asked permission to
sit on the stage, but were refused, be-
cause the presence of anyone but the
professor. who stood beside the piano,
made the dog nervous, and he would
not touch a key. While the vocaiists were
doing their part of the performance,
the professor went to the box office, set

Thirty Thousand Pieces a Year Turned
Over to the Lost Property Department.
At terminal points ON the elevated
railroads, South ferry, for example, the
guards on the trains go through the cars
and pick up anything that may have
been left by the passengers and turn 1t
over to the train dispatcher at the sta
ton, who delivers it to the superintend-
emit of the lost property department OF
the Manhattan Railway company, at 39
Greenwich street. There the article is
inspected and record of the finding Of
1t, with description of the article, is
made in book kept for that purpose;
there is book for each division of the
road Then it is wrapped up, properly
tagged or labeled, and held to await its
owner. Sometimes the ownership of a
package is discovered upon examining it.
Then If it is not called for the company
notifies the owner Of the finding Of 1t.
In this way articles are restored to their
owners daily.
Umbrellas are the articles most nu
merously found OF these there are found
from 2, 500 to 5000 year; they are of
all kinds and qualities. The number of
umbrellas found increases from year to
year about in the same proportion as the
increase of travel. Next to umbrellas in
the numbers found come satchels, and
after them, about in the order named,
come hats, shoes, books and the various
things that are done up in packages.
There are found also watches, diamonds,
hardware, music, bottles and in the
course of the yenr many other things in
great variety.
Altogether from the various divisions
of the road there are turned over to the
lost property department about 30, 200
pieces year. About half of these lost
articles are called for. Articles of small
value are kept six months; articles OF
greater value are kept a year. Things
not called for are finally sold by public
auction at sales held semiannually.

Sulphur.

A curious chemical result Of expert
ments made by Strindberg, as noted in
Annales Industrielles, is that sulphur
is not only not simple body, but not
even an original one, being simply a
common fossil rosin or bitumen. He
finds that when sulphur is melted at
about 90 degrees, it disengages an odor
of turpentine or csmphor, and IL a
trace of iodine be added the odor be-
comes more marked. If it be heated
anew to between 100 degrees and $50
degrees, it loses oxygen and drops to the
level Of caoutchouc, Of which latter
it assumes the color and consistency
then, IL the brown and viscous liquid
which is obtained in this manner be
cooled, it preserves its nature for GER
tain length CT time, and then resumes
its state of rosin.

Portrait of a Passenger by the Conductor
Ditto by the Passenger.
He was a cheerful looking citizen
when he got on the Broadway cable car.
He nodded pleasantly to the conductor,
and then felt in his pockets for change.
He went through one after another,
found none, and looked less cheerful.
Finally he took pocketbook from his
breast pocket, and picking So bill
from the roll handed it to the conduct
or, apologizing at the same time. The
conductor snatched the bill and looked
ugly. He counted out the change in
chicken feed, as small coins are called
on the railroads, and showed it into the
mans hand with "Take it |" Then he
turned to another passenger on the plat
form and began to talk loud enough for
the other to hear about "hogs" who
rode ON cars.
"Did ye see that fellow that just give
me the bill?" he said well, he's a

"See here, my friend" said the man
who had had the bill changed, his face
as red as beet, "you re id liar. /"
The conductor looked startled. The
man repeated the declaration and pro-

AN INNOCENT INTRUDER.
Ae Engaged Rooms, but Then Found That
He Was Not Welcome,


he Was Net Welcome.
An amusing story is told Of the early
days Of the Margaret Louise home. The
home, as is we'll known, was built by
Mrs. Elliott +. Shepard as woman's
hotel, under the auspices Of the Young
Women 8 Christian association.
The first day the building was open
Miss Altman, the directress, was told
that a gentleman had called to look at
looms. Taking it for granted that he
wished to engage board for some woman
relative, she sent an attendant to show
him the rooms. He expressed himself as
much pleased and engaged suit. At
nightfall the following day Miss Alt
man was informed by the Mortified at
| tendant that "a man had come to occupy
the rooms" which he claimed to have
engaged the preceding day. In the hall
her startled eyes recognized the dignified
gentleman of the day before. accompa
MED by colored valet with dress suit
| case in one hand, portmanteau in the
other, and with an expressman with a
big trunk bringing up the rear.
Miss Altman advanced and politely
requested an explanation. This caused
the gentleman to grow very red in the
face, while the valet rolled his eyes in
disapproval and the ezpressman waited.
The gentleman declared that he had
come to take possession of the rooms he
had engaged and had been refused the
keys.
"Oh, but you cannot occupy the
rooms" she exclaimed "This is wo-
mans hotel. " The valet dropped the
portmanteau, the expressman smiled,
while beads of cold perspiration be-
spangled the would be boarder's brow,
as he explained, that going by. he had
seen the place and, installing it for a
select hotel, was SO much pleased with
his inspection that he had persuaded his
nephew to come also and that prob
ably the young man would arrive by 8
O'Clock. Then, with many apologies.
he beat hasty retreat. That evening
Miss Altman received the nephew, who
proved to be dashing young society
man, who. when he heard Of his uncle s
innocent mistake, was greatly amused
and laughed heartily. - New York
