ODD TIPS TO WATERS.
Costly Umbrellas and Canes Given
by One Patron--Another Pays
for Weight Gained.

Although, said the head waiter at a
West end restaurant, our tips are for
the most part cash and vary in amount
according to the means and generosity
of the donor, we receive at times other
and strange Acknowledgements OF our
services.
The late Gustave Dore, the artist,
when at times he patronized our es-
tablishment, was wont to dash of q
sketch on the back of his biil-gen-
orally a lightning spit on some person
present--which he would hand me with
the exact amount Of his reckoning; and.
as these pencilings found a ready mar
ket among the other diners, | con-
sidered the remuneration more than
adequate.
At the present time we have a most
esteemed patron, well-known city
man, whom when some three years ago
he first dined with us. regarded as .
niggardly skinfiint, for not one penny
over the exact amount charged would
he disburse. One evening, however,
about week after his first appearances,
he left his umbrella, a handsome pne
with massive silver mounting. The
next evening, upon my handing him his
property, he returned 1t with the re-
mark that he always considered his for
getfulness the walters gain. And
since that time my gain has been con-
siderable. for every fortnight this gen.
tleman forgetso course purposely-
his stick or umbrella, which, being in
yariably an expensive article. fully re-
quites me for my two weeks attend
ance.
A friend Of mine. who Is waiter at
one Of the principal hotels at brighton
has very eccentric patron. This gem
tleman, who often takes weeks hol-
iday at the seaside to recuperate HIS
health, gauges the benefit deriyed
from HIS stay by the amount he gains
in weight. Immediately on his alight-
ing at the station he gets ON the scales.
and then, having made note Of his ex-
act poundage, repairs to his hotel,
where he summons my friend. to whom
he intrusts the entire charge Of his ii-
etary during his stay.
On the morning OF his departure he
is again weighed. and my friends re-
ward is commensurate with the amount
gained. It always, however. takes the /
form OF some article OF clothing, FOR
which the gentleman pretenda to have
no further use, as being disproportion-
ate to his recently acquired obesity,
amounting often 70 only a pound or so,
AT various times my friend has been the
recipient Of shirts. hats, oyercoats,
vests. and once, when the increase was
nearly a stone, his patron left behind
two portmanteaus filed with clothes,
taking with him only those garments
he chanced 10 be wearing at the time OF
his departure. Philadelphia Times.

The result Of single decision OF
acourt frequently leads to untold
trouble and expense. When
Judge Springer decided last year
that Rochester tonic did not come
nuder the prohibitive ban of the
law, he encouraged every vender
efliquor of whatsoever character
inthe whole territory. The re-
suit will be that a number OF men
will spend some years of their
lives in the penitentiary. Other
shings being equal it is far better
for a judge of the conrt to throw
his influnce to the side Of law and
order aud the best element in So
ciety, than to condone or excuse
violation Of the law.

Over four years ago the big

country over there with money.
The fulIbIoods have some of that

real contortionists on the saloon

The Beers have been taught that
war with England was inevitable;
and the war was to be for home
and country. Every child has
been bred in the belief that his life
was due to the cause of liberty.
The sentiment is as stroug in the
Boer heart as the sentiment of re.
sistance to Rome was in the heart
of Hannibal. This spirit of defense
has led to dicipline in the art of
war from childhood. Boys and
girls alike have been imbued with
soIdierly qualities. The girls have
been taught to shoot, and impress
ed with the idea that they should
fill the ranks by stepping into the
hles when fathers husbands and
brothers had fallen. The women
encourage the men to Spartan
sacrifices, and shed never a tear
when the dearest ties of nature are
cut by the English bullets. They
stand ready to shoulder the rifle
that falls frum the lifeless hand oil
father or brother. This sacrifice Is
the most pathetic example Of
patriotism of modern times. T q
spirit of patriotism thus nurtured
can never be subdued. This wal

The Only Legal Bond.

The legality of bonds for the
purchase or construction of public
water system by the city of Lew
iston is an issue at this time. The
writer took pains to get the best
possible legal opinion on this ques,
ton during the past week.
The amended charter OF the city
of Lewiston provides for the issue
OF bonds for the purchase or con-
struction" of water works. The
statute provides for but one class
of bonds for thu purchase or con
struction" of water works. Any
ordinance that did not provide for
bond issue in the words of the
law would be illegal. A call for
an election to pass upon a bond
issue that did not Include the full
phrase purchase OF construct
would be illegal
The exact language OF The ordi
nance which calls the election. is
very important. To divide this
phrase would be to designate two
forms of bonds for one purpose
which was never contemplated and
which the language does not
justify.
The cry is raised that the option
TO purchase or construct is heavy
responsibility to place in the hands
of the city coun,il. The same re-
sponsibility is involved in the same
option before the election is held.

in an equity court that the most
economic system is the only legal

by the council last Tuesday night.
The people are not afraid to
place the responsibility of provid-
ing a public water system with the
members Of the council absolutely,
either after the bond issue is author
lied by the people or before the
election, If the option is not con-
tinued till after the election the
council will be called upon to act

January Ist will mark the begin
ing of the second golden age Tor
Lewiston valley. The first golden
age dawned in 1860, forty years
ago. The placer deposits OF
precious metals in this district
were small compared to the ore de-
posits of precious metals in this
district, Our gold, silver and cop
per have awaited, with our other
items OF wealth, for the progress OF
the age in the development of in
dus,rial enterprises. More securely
than the agricultural aud timber
resources has the mineral wealth
of this region been locked UP rom
man in the past The gold that
was locked in our ores has aw lited
the progress of ages in reserve tor
future use Mechanical discoveries
gave it out by degrees. Then came
the great progress of chemical de-
velopment that promises to more
than double the gold out put of
the world. So it is in more or less
degree with all other precious
metals. Surely new age of
precious metals is dawning. Aud

"The one thing more than any
other that is delaying the growth
of Lewiston today is the lack of an
ample supply Of water at
moderate cost" The foregoing is
the observation Of a prominent
real estate man who has large
holdings of city property on the
market and is coming in daily
contact with the would-be pur-
chasers, The cheap water in
Viueland and its ample supply as
compared with the high rates on
the Lewiston side and the scanty
supply is factor that is retarding
the movement OF Lewiston realty
more than any other. Cheap
water and plentiful supply would
double Lewiston's population In
the next twelve months. The
control of the city's water supply
is now an issue before the people
and it Is one of vital importance to
Lewiston growth and develop.
