Judge Smith opened the November

the docket was exceptionally light and
only two days were required to clean
up the business. Only IL cases were
dOcketed for trial, all foreclosures and
combinations save the two criminal
cases Of the state rs. Peter Orth, and
state rs. Ross BrannOn.
The case against Orth was nOlIe
pressed and he is now a free man.
Orth was charged with rObbing J. S.
Hutchinson on the night Of October -,
1898, and was found guilty by a jury at
the April term Of court, this year.
Judge Smith set the verdict aside and
ordered a new trial on the ground

a Winter Rain.

Sunday at midnight and continued
steadily until Tuesday morning, then
IN a desultOry way throughout the day
and night Tuesday. Fully two inches
Of water fell leaving the streets mucky
and water standing foot deep in many
places, and making heavy traffic ex-

remained between 50 and % degrees
during the storm, insuring little dan

". l. Webb and E. r. Brown, two
brskemen who we're recently dis
charged, got we'll keyed-up on bad
booze Monday night and started out to
ind trouble. While making arrange
ments for their crusade on a corner
on south Main street, Painter Miller,
Of the railroad shops, came along and
was promptly pushed out in the muddy
street, and upon mildly protesting was
given an upper-eut for an answer.
The bilIigerent brakemen then pro-
ceeded to Trainmaster MortOn's Office
in the depot and demanded their time
checks. Webb became very demon
strative and Brown, thinking he needed
calming down, landed a few punches.
Webb then directed his attention to
Brown, and soon had him very grOggy.
Other railroad men in the Office stop
ped a hardware play about to take
place, while most Of those present
made flying exits over counters and
down fire escapes. Brown was taken
home and given medical attention,
which he sOreIy needed Other in
stances Of terrorizing were reported,
but none Of any violence.
Brown is the man that hit Mort Batz,
the ball player, and broke his jaw early
in the fall while in a row on Smoky
Row, and has also enjoyed some repU-
tation as a fighter. Batz is now in a
hospital in St Louis.

Webb and Brown Tuesday, but before
the marshal could serve them the men
had left town.

Dear Hearts OF Ireland .

Only fair audience weathered the
storm and mud to hear the Myles Nc
Carthy company in Dear Hearts of
Ireland" at the opera house Tuesday
night. The players appeared indiffer-
ent to their parts and Dear Hearts of
ireland" was certainly not seen to good
advantage, but perhaps a larger house,
more free with applause, would have
gone away with a better impression of
the play and company.
Miss Grace Van Auker, a GOOdIand
girl, and daughter Of il. Van Auker of
this city, is with the company as lead
ing lady. A man of 70 years is not
often seen on the road as an actor, yet
Mr.. Westcott, appearing as Chamus
McShsin, is said to be of that age, aud
notwithstanding his years he moved
with surprising alacrity and handled
his part we'll, justly receiving the bulk
Of applause.

To q Dear Little Truant.
When are you coming? the flowers have
come:
Bees in the balmy air happily hum;
In the dim woods where the cool moses
are,
Cleans the anemone's little, light star;
Tenderly, timidly, down in the dell,
bell;
Soft in the wavy grass lightenS the dew:
Spring keeps her promises: why do not
you?
Up in the blue air the clouds are at play
You are more graceful and lovely than
they;
Birds in the branches sing all the day
long,
When are you coming to join in their
song?
F'airer than flowers, and. fresher than
Other sweet things are here-why are not
you?
Why don't you come? we have welcomed
the rose
Every light zephyr, gayly it goes,
Whispers of other flowers, met it's
way:
Why has it nothing of you, love, to say ?
Why does it tell of music and dew
Rose of the south, we are waiting for you
Do not delay, darling, mid the dark trees.
Sometimes the brook, it trips by the
flowers
Hushes it's MARBLE to listen for yours.
Pure the rivulet, lovely and true
Spring should have waited till she could
bring you.

mai nov pi doyi" (''The little lady
is going on the mountain."O She re-
peated this many times while dressing
her. Out on the broad veranda where
Ruth spent all her waking hours it
was very lively and entertaining. Such
a running about and ordering and
packing as there was! Mattresses, pill
lows and blankets were strewn over
the floor; dishes, clothing and provi-
sions were being packed into bamboo
baskets. In the open space before the
house, below the high veranda, four
big elephants leisurely broke up and
chewed long, juicy banana stalks
making a great rustling noise as they
swept the broad leaves over the
ground. By and by the hubbub on the
veranda quieted down. The filled bas-
kets were fastened, two by two, on
each end OF a short pole; this pole was
hoisted over mans shoulder, and OFF
he trotted with his load. Down among
the elephants was great shouting and
groaning and straining. The elephants
were made to kneel down while the
heavy howdahs, or elephant saddles,
were put in place on their backs. Two
Of the howdahs were packed with bed
ding, two folding-chairs, a coop of
chickens, a stone water-filter, cans Of
kerosene whatever could not be put
into the bamboo baskets. The third
elephant was led up to the first landing
of the long flight of veranda stairs, and
Ruth's mamma stepped upon a chair,
then on the stair-railing, and then on
the elephants head, whence it was
easy to reach the seat of the howuah
Papa made the passage to the howdah
more quickly and with less trepidation
Lastly, dear DR.. McGilvary, who was
speeding the expedition, handed the
baby over to papa, and chorus of mai

ing crowd below. The procession moved
out Of the gate, the brass bells at the
elephants necks Ginning melodiously.

Ants Who Have Slaves.

Did you ever hear of ants who make
slaves of other ants? Well, there are
such creatures. They are called slave
making ants.
One day in the year 1904 a famous
marching rapidly over the ground in
an unbroken column. Their behavior
was most military and there was no
struggling. Presently they came to an
ant mound where another species of
ants lived. Some of these ants were
on guard. and on seeing the enemy ap-
proach messengers were sent to the
interior of the mound to call the rest
out. In a minute a great battle was
on, which ended in a victory for the
attacking party. The conquered ones
retreated to the bottom of their nest,
while the conquerors followed in after,
and presently each returned with a
baby ant in it's mouth. These ants
were brought up as slaves, as was later
discovered by this same naturalist
After a while the masters became so
dependent on the slaves for everything
they could do nothing for themselves
except fight other ants They lost
their teeth; they forgot how to build;
they neglected their young, leaving the
slave ants to care for them; they even
lost the power of feeding themselves.
and when, by way of experiment, a few
of them were placed by themselves
where there was lots of food, but no
slaves tosgive it to them, they died,
every onSaof them, from hunger One
SSstiIhe a man took a few of this species
and kept them by themselves for a
couple Of days, and then, just as they
seemed about to die, he gave them one
slave ant. Working all alone, this fell
low built nice home, washed and
cared for the baby ants and fed the
older ones, who were about dead from
hunger. If you had to be an ant,
wouldn't you much rather be the slave
than the master?
