AFTER THE BALL" IN MANILA.

The night, it was too hot and the
mosquitoes were too thick for anv one
to work. Consequently, under the
guidance of cheerful spirit, we took a
drive. The moon came up, and with its
witching light stirred our blood to de.
sire for adventure. The twang of a gui.
tar in small nippa hut attracted our
attention. We stopped the carriage and
listened. Surely some happy soul was
singing, "Atter the Ball is Over" We
got out Of the carriage, approached the
but, and saw through the long open VIII
dows of the room what seemed to be IA
cornwall gathering of men nd women.
"a native party" said the cheerful
spirit
While we stood watching and listen
ing, man came out of the hut and said
in English:
"Come inn
There was nothing to do but to follow.
Accordingly, we pushed through the
crowded anteroom and into the packed
gathering in the "parlJr." Chairs were
showed to the front for us, and we sat
down. Before us on box, in the mid>
die of the room, was the body of tinv
baby dressed in white, with white
wreath about its head, We were s.un-

Tagalo, with sorrow, with tenderness,
with hope, and finally with joy. Still il
was after the Bail is Over" and we
fidgeted about in our chairs trying to
lose sight of the poor little bundle on
the box.
My neighbor pointed out to me the
mother, who was sitting at the foot oil
the box, smoking stoically.
"Do you think it was small pox?'
whispered the cheerful spirit. Harper's

He was therefore discharged, and before

In an editorial article the Atlanta Con.
sGitutiOn shows whai a Dawsonian is do

of that city. Mr.. Parks Is brother of
Judge j q. Parks of the city court and
was reared in Dawson, and the article,
which follows, will be read with much
interest here:
"There has just come to light in At
lanJa a remarkable incident showing
how little things contribute to the build
ing of city.
GA few months ago Mr.. Lloyd B.
Parks, vice president of the George
Muse Clothing Company, startei with
Mr.. Jesse MCCARTHY in the manufacture
of garters. He had discovered in the
handling of his stock that there was an
opportunity 10 supplying this little
branch of trade. He started with only a
small capital, in one room, intending
simply to supply the custom of his own
house, but no sooner had he started than
the field began to widen, and he was
forced into larger quarters, where he
took in orders from other merchants in
the city and gradually from those in the
surrounding country, until now the firm
has built up trade which extends from
Virginia 70 Texas. The gods are made
just as readily here as elsewhere, and
The plotit is kept at home,
con the same line shown by Mr.. Parks
there is room for a hundred small in>
dustries which can be taken up in con>
nee ION with every business house il the

with equal force to other towns as we'll

they "Woren't knee hi@h to a

Florida to remain, bat the
country and climate grew On
him, as i has on others, and he
purchased what was then known

MANY HAVE SKIPPED PAYMENT.
Wants Law Amended Sc
Metropolitan Employers
Will Insure Payment.

Clinton, Sept 2S.-Town Treasurer
Charles E. Shaw has a plan that he be-
lieves will infallibly result in a larger
income for Clinton if he can get it into
operation. The plan relates to the col
lection of poll taxes. Mr.. Shaw's sug-
gestion is that an amendment be Sc
cured to the law relating to the con-
struction Of the Wachusett reservoir, so
that the contractors will be held re-
sponsible for the poll taxes of their
men.
Mr.. Shaw's idea is that the contract
ors could get their money back out of
the men, or it has been suggested, in
the same way. that they collect their
outrageous charges for shanty rent and
groceries from the wages of their en-
ployees before they are paid over.
Town Treasurer Shaw has assess
ments against 400 or 500 men who are
or who have been employed on the res
ervoir He finds it difficult and almost
impossible to make collections
The assessments are levied, many of
them, against persons who do not speak
the language. A constable in the case
is not Of much value, because Of the
difficulty in Identifying his man.
Treasurer Shaw estimates that when
he has collected all that he can there
will be 400 poll taxes which he will be
unable to collect.
Mr.. Shaw sees no reason why his plan
cannot be successfully pursued. Some
thing similar is the rule in California
and is a success.
He will lay his idea before a future
town meeting, and let the meeting take
such action as it sees fit.
