''How DO YOU LIKE ME, NEDDY"
Of them all, the master said almost
affectionately: "Bless my soul, Ned,
l must be growing blind and deaf. I

"You are very good, sir" Ned an

ear. He was relieved to find that the
rest did not hear it, yet SO upset over it
that he made sad mess of the algebra

send him from first place, down mark
below Timmy Angel, the next competi-

great chum of the Weston boy whom
Ned hated.
Now he came over to them, ostensibly
to ask for pencil he had left on the
desk yesterday, really to show them in
the shelter of his open book all those
knotty and tantalizing problems worked
out beautifully upon fair white paper.
"Sat up half the night to do 'em," he
said in a proud whisper. "But, oh, aim t

'Let me look good. Leave 'em min

sigh half of envy. Just then the mas

fresh bucketful, please. Meantime you
are excused from algebra.
''Please, sir, mayn't Timmy go along?
He can take the other bucket We shall
need 'em both by dinner time, " Weston
answered. The master smiled and nod

the two lads were scattering away
leaving Ned alone with his blurred
mind and those temptingly wrought out
problems.
He shut his eyes and dug his knuckles

TO WORK FOR GOOD ROADS

Gates Better Highways.

Lieutenant Governor of New York AdvO-
Gates Better Highways.
"Now that I have, through my par
ticipation during one session of the leg
islature, acquired experience concern
ing the management Of state affairs, it
is my purpose next winter to devote a
large share of my time and energy to
the securing of good roads," said Lieu
tenant Governor Woodruff of New York
in recent speech.
Legislation in that direction fail
ed during the Legislative session Of
1897 because of the opposition of the
farm owners of the state, who natu-
rally prefer to work the roads run
ming through their farms themselves
rather than pay the tax required for
some department of the state to do it.
We all know that the making of good
roads requires careful study of the
subject and practical experience such as
most of the farmers do not possess.
sincerely hope that the rural communi-
ties of our state may be brought to a re-
alization Of the real situation and an
other winter acquiesce in systematic
plan for road Improvement, not forget
ting that over 60 per cent of the cost of
such improvement will be betrayed by
the taxpayers of the cities. believe
that almost every farmer will save in
the cost of getting his produce to mar
ket sum greater than his individual
tax by the substitution of good roads
for the very poor ones now so prevalent
throughout the Empire State.

Press Women of Louisiana.

The press women of Louisiana are
generously recognized by their brothers
of the fourth estate. At the annual
meeting of the New Orleans Press club,
recently held, it was voted to admit
women to membership. Speaking of
this, The Daily Picayune says:
1.-The women engaged on the news
papers in New Orleans are perhaps not
the least among the great body of work
ers, and it was gracious recognition
of their worth to accord them member
ship in the great newspaper league. 1t
is said that the New Orleans Press club
is the first i'll the country to admit
women to membership. The act was
characteristic of the well known chival-
ry of our southern craft. The newspaper
women of New Orleans certainly appre-
ciate the compliment extended, and in
the press club, as on the press, will give
of their best for its success and develop

A STRANGE MIX UP.
How the Theft of Bicycle Led to EN-
barrassing Complications.

How the Theft of Bicycle Led to EN-
barrassing Complications.
Among the strange complications for
which the bicycle has been responsible
the following is rather Il masterpiece in
point of intricacy. Those persons who
took part i'll it are now disposed to view
the incident with some pride as tri-
umph of confusion and misunderstand-
ing not likely to be duplicated.
B., who lives far up town, had occa-
sion to visit a bicycle store on the Bou-
levard few days ago He left his
wheel outside, near the rack in which
stood several machines for rent. While
he was attending to his errand inside
the shop he CHANGED to glance out
through the door just in time to see Il
man spring upon his unguarded wheel
and ride off at a furious pace down the
street. With an exclamation of rage b.
rushed to the sidewalk, seized one of
the wheels from the rack and started off
i'll hot pursuit of the thief.
The proprietor of the shop stood for
moment aghast. He had not seen the
beginning of the trouble, and the only
thing clear to him was that his sup
posedly honest customer had made an
astonishingly bold attempt to steal u
wheel from the rack. There was only
one thing to be done Jumping upon
another wheel, he joined in the chase,
and the three scorched up the Boule-
ward in admirable racing style. The
real thief proved the poorest rider of
the three, as the shOpkeeper was unques-
tionably the best, and the result of this
state of affairs was that the distances
between the different members of the
trio grew speedily less. AS they drew
together truck crossed the avenue,
crowding them into a small space. The

selves a policeman appeared. His first
proposition was to run them all i'm
for scOrching. but, impressed by the un-
usual excitement of his prisoners, who
seemed to be more disturbed in mind
than ordinary scorchers, he waited to
hear their stories.
This, as may be imagined, was no
short task. The genuine thief was the
only one who saw hunor in the situa-
ton Knowing that he had nothing to
say for himself, he stood by and grin
ned, while the shopkeeper and his Gus
toner sputtered out angry and conflict
ing accounts of the affair. But the truth
was finally ascertained AS he collarcd

In Kansas there is growing feeling of
dissatisfaction ut the present system of

the reasons why there is no better growth

The laws provide that when member
is sick, his regular assessments and dues
must be paid by his local council upon an
officer being notified of his condition by
letter.
Bound together by common tie and
actuated by II common purpose, we can do
that for our brothers which we could not
do for strangers. The avenue of approach
Is open, and no one may fear rebuff.

of the Royal Arcanum, secure an infusion
of new, young blood and keep down at
once the average age of the order and the

THEY LIKE THE COUNTRY.

When Retired, Naval Officers Seldom Live
In Large Towns or Cities.
"Naval officers always settle in the
country when they can,' remarked
prominent officer to Star reporter
During their active careers-that is,
during the time they are at sea, they
are necessarily cramped for room, and
while some of them on the large mod
ern ships have elegant and sumptuous
quarters, there is necessarily limit to
it. This thing grows on a man to such
an extent that the first thing he does
when he is retired, and in hundreds of
cases long before retirement, is to hunt
up Il farm and locate on it. Three of the
admirals on the retired list, headed by
Admiral Ammen, are the owners of
farms in the immediate locality of
Washington, and any number of other
officers are similarly provided for,
though their farms are not so extensive.
They seem to want stretching room.
and it will be noticed that when they
do locate they secure big places. Their
minds run into stock and chicken rails,
ing. The officers of the marine corps
have been noted for years as the owners
of the speediest horses owned or driven
about Washington, and they have been
always prominent in connection with
our racing associations and organiza-
tions. Naval officers have been similar
ly prominent. 1t is different with army

THE STYLE OF ALDERMEN,
People Who Do Address Them as "The
Honorable" In Spite of Webster.

People Who Do Address Them as "The
Honorable" In Spite of Webster.
In none of the ''ready letter writer's
are directions given as to the prefix
which it is proper to put before the
name of an alderman, and it is for this
reason perhaps that a controversy has
recently arisen. One of the disputants
says:
'When writing to a member of the
board of aldermen or a commissioner in
one of the city departments, it is high
falutin, l think to address him with
the prefix Hon " In proof of the cor
rectness of this view of the case this
correspondent invokes the testimony of
Webster, the dictionary compiler, who
said of the use of "the honorable:'
can American usage 1t is a title Of
courtesy merely, bestowed upon those
who hold Or have held higher public Of
fees, especially governors, judges, mem
bers of congress or of the senate and
mayors"
Webster was born in Connecticut in
1853 and died in the same state in
1S43, long before the establishment, as
such, of the present New York board
of aldermen and at time when that
body was generally known as the COM
mon council, and any opinions which
he may have expressed in his dictionary
or any views which he may have enter
tanned personally on the subject of hon
orary titles in use in the United States
could have no especial bearing upon the
1p
fame as Legislators has now spread to
confines where the name of Webster is
quite unknown.
The title alderman is derived from
the Saxon word "ealdorman," other
wise alderman or elder. 1t was a title
of honor in early days in England, and
the alderman or alderman was local
functionary responding somewhat to
the present justice of the peace. In Eng
land the alderman was usually q judge,
but afterward the office came to be an
elective one, and from the English word
has come the American title alderman
so valiantly upheld by the aldermen of
New York, who insist upon a full share
of all political honors, perquisites, priv
ileges, rights, advantages and immuni-
ties, and he would be a courageous man
indeed who would omit from the des-
ignation of an alderman Especially an
alderman recently electedD the title
1.-The honorable. The legal duties of
aldermen are so few, their exercise is
so carefully guarded by acts of the leg
islature, that it is necessary, so to speak,
for the aldermen to find, if the express
sion may be used without offense, work
for themselves. Accordingly from time to
time resolutions are passed by the board
taking the form of ordinances which by
tacit agreement among the members it
is arranged shall not be acted upon un-
less the alderman of the district in
which the applicant or applicants reside
assents to action. In this way the pow
ers of an alderman in a district are very
considerably enhanced, and in such cases
the petitioner, realizing the full force
and importance of the alderman S office,
is glad of the opportunity to address
him as "the honorable" and realizes
the futility of another course.-New

Come, sit with me, love, in the cleaning
OF the flrelight's flicker and tiarel
Together We'll drift in our dreaming
Away from the trouble and care,
And the present with all its sorrow
Forgotten tonight shall lie
AS we talk of the glad tomorrow
And the some day by and by,
OF the day of our hopes, bclated,
When l win from the world name,
And my thought ships decks are freighted
With honor and gold and fame.
And all that is brightest and clearest
In the wealth of the worlds supply
I'll bring to your feet, my dearest,
In the some day by and by.
By blossom and bloom surrounded
Our own little nest shall stand,
The castle in clouds we founded
The home that our hearts have planned,
Where never shade of sadness
Shall darken our sunset sky,
And life shall be JOY and gladness
In the some day by and by.
But if Of our dear dream stories
No tale of them all come true
And the sky of our grandcst glories
The tempest shall hide from view,
Then, facing it, dear, together,
With never a tear or sigh,
Well wait for the clearing weather
And the some day by and by.
