routed the police force of that village after
a brief encounter on Friday.
Mrs B. rides bicycle, Of course, and
when it became necessary for her to go to
the grocery or the post office or wherever
it was that she had to go, she, of course,
mounted her wheel
Now at times the streets of the village
of White Bear are not the real thing for
wheeling, and the town authorities know
the same, With view to having the streets
pressed out fiat by bicyclists they have
passed an ordinance forbidding any one
riding on the sidewalks.
Mrs. 3. either did not know this or she
did not care; she took to the walk and rode
down town. She left her wheel outside and
went into the store, and when she came out
she found herself confronted by the digni-
tary who Is the whole thing in police cir
cles-the man who is to the police depart
ment what the lone mariner was to the
Nancy brig.
"You are under arrest" She looked at
him and made a dash for her wheel, which
he had captured. He retired before the on
slaught in disorder, and she got the wheel.
II am what?' she demanded.
"You are under arrest for riding on the
| walk
"Bur won't be under arrest" she said.
But you are" he said
'I am not anything of the kind. You
mind your own business
But, mum, it is my business, and you
must go to the Justices office with me, or
promise that you win be there at o'clock
in the morning"
II won't do anything of the kind
But I tell you arrest you.'
"And I tell you I won't be arrested.
There you are. Now, what are you going
to do about it?''
"Oh. come on. now; come to the Justices
Office"
IT won't do it. I'll pay fine, II that's
what you want. How much Is it2''
"I don't take the fine You must go to

Getting Along in Kentucky.

An anecdote of Bishop Thomas W. Dud-

of his success.
When it was first known in the city In
which he was settled that he was to 20
to Kentucky some OF his friends were dis
posed to be critical.
You are not going to Kentucky, are

"Yes, indeed"

Imagine myself transported into Fairyland.
As far as the eye can reach the enchanting
st. Lawrence river stretches out, dotted
with innumerable islands, each one rich

These are the far-famed Thousand ISL

those unaided lines of business into
which these new competitors have en-
tered. Clearly if England can't run her
own ships at profit without help, it s
useless for us to buy them and try it.
Therefore some government aid must
be given-the question is simply the mat
ter of it's form. Evidently this aid should
be reserved for the vessels which are the
product of the American mechanic and
miner. For we have abundantiy demon
strated that we can build the vessels and
only d sufficiently large quantity of the
work is needed to enable us to build as
cheaply as the constructors of England.
My Investigations on the Clyde satisfied
mo of this and these views are now en-
dorsed by the leading American ship
builders.
How then shall the aid be given? BY
restoring the old tonnage tax of 90 cents
per ton. Since our treaties will not per-
NIT the determinations in these duties
which were formerly had, Americans
paying but six cents per ton, it would be
necessary to place this tax on American
and foreign vessels alike. No one could
object to this and the result (taking the
figures ofrlast year) would be receipts
from tonnage taxes amounting to $14, ,642 :
7S9, OF which the foreigner would con,
tribute $l1, $50, ,125. This fund, divided
among American vessels according to the
number of miles sailed with cargo in the
foreign trade, would give assistance am
