that he bad no practical or theoretical
knowledge Of horsemanship. He was
the motorman of a Fourth avenue car
bound toward the terminal at the
bridge The horse was one of those an
Eular, cockeyed. ungainly beasts that
no amount of enrrying and feeding
could make respectable.

few minutes four trolley cars were
backed up behind the cart and more
were in sight down Center street. Mo-
tormen. conductors, truck drivers, as
sorted citizens and policeman stood
around and gave the usual advice The
driver kicked the horse and two or
three men called TO the policeman TO
stop him. Then they in turn made hu.
mane suggestions about starting fire
under the beast s stomach A woman
said that it would be easy enough for
any one to coax him along with lump
of sugar
The motorman of the fifth trolley
car, which had by this time reached the
md of the blocked line, walked mp and
surveyed the situation.
"Whose car is thisf" he asked, point

behind the wagon to which the balky
horse was attached.
"It's mine. said another motorman,
who was lingering n brass motor handle

horse with it
The motorman from the rear hoisted

1t is a matter of common knowledge,
says an English exchange. that the late
Sir Andrew Clarke cured himself OF
consumption by living as much as pos
sible in the open air. The principle in.
volyed has since been generally recog-
nized by the medical profession, with
the result that the old bad practice OF
keeping consumptives in warm. stuffy
rooms has been almost entirely aban.
doned. 1t is fresh air which is mainly
responsible for the cures worked at such
places az Davos, where the patients
spend II hours a day out of doors,
breathing cold. bracing mountain air.
while they are exhilarated by bright
sunshine The result is that each dis
eased spot in the lungs is cut off from
the healthy tissue by a ring of stretched
cells, across which disease germs can.
not pass. and so the malady is arrested
until the strengthened body can over

The women hurried along Adams
street from the Art institute ON their
way to the Woman's Euchre club at
Handel hall
Just run in with me here a min

punches that made holes of various

And she distracted n cardboard from
her pocket that showed the size of the
perforation.
"Oh, very welll" said the clerk 1--WE

was brought out and sold promptly.
The second woman wondered what
her friend wanted Of that particular
punch. but kept her curiosity to herself
The game was exciting. and. as the
friend is a good player. she won eight
games The second woman noticed this
particularly. But when the score cards
were exhibited the friend had II credit
marks punched in her score card. The
other woman saw then the wherefore
of the particular punch they had bought.
The friend had won eight games, and
then had done little punching with a
private punch.

quite valuable, and the spirit of gam

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should be Carefully
Guided In Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance: or more
frequently from mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter
Tradition saws woman must suffer. J"
and young women are SO taught.
There is little truth and great deal
Of exaggeration in this. II a young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets 1t.
Many mothers hesitate TO take their
daughters to physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself TO Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs Pinkham's address is
Lynn, Mass.
The following letterfrom Miss MARIE
r. JOHNSON, Centralia, Pa shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
Pinkham helped her:
my health became SO poor that
had to leave school. was tired all the
time, and had dreadful pains in my
side and back. ! was also troubled
with irregularity of menses. was
very weak, and lost so much flesh that
my friends became alarmed. My
mother, who Is a firm believer in your
remedies from experience, thought per-
haps they might benefit me, and wrote
you for advice. followed the advice
you gave, and used Lydia E Pinkhams

you directed, and am now as we'll as
ever was have gained flesh and have

in POLICE COURT AT ONCE
ITY OF THE GRINDELAND
LAW
Attorney General Douglas and the
Commission Mems Attorneys Get
Together on "a Plan for Bringing
the Issue to n Head.

A conference was held yesterday be-
tween Attorney General Douglas, who
represented the state; Palmer & Beck,
and G. P. Wilson, attorneys foE the Com
mission Mems association, when 1t was
decided to bring a case to test the con-
stitutionality of the Grindleland bill. The
commission men of the Twin Cities be-
lieve that the bill trespasses upon their
private rights in conducting their bust
ness, and have so far solidly refused to
comply with its provisions.
The bill requires firms doing commits
sion business to secure license from
the state railroad and warehouse COM
mission, and further places restrictions
and limitations upon their business trans
action The friends of the bill in the last
legislature claimed for it that the pro-
,ducer was protected through the quail
flcation which it made necessary on the
part of the city commission man. 1t
was strongly opposed when up for pas
sage, and has worried the commission
men ever since. Several meetings have
been held, and attorneys engaged to fight
the case.
The test case will be brought In the
municipal court and carried to the su-
preme court quickly as possible. The
parties concerned hope to get a decision

Petition Is Quietly Ignored.

At meeting of the joint city hall and

afternoon, it was voted to allow each of
the court house employees weeks va
cation during the year, and a petition
was received from the janitors asking
that their salaries be increased to $50
per month,4s.in accordance with the
promise made by the Republican party
during the last national campaign" was
placed on file. Commissioners Nelson,
Lott, Dix and Allard and Mayor Kiefer
were present at the meeting, which was
short and uneventful.
Some surprise was occastoned when
petition was read signed by a dozen Of
the janitors which asked that their sal
aries be raised from $50 to $50 per month,
thus fulfilling the promise made by the
Republican party during the last ma
tionaI campaign and in keeping with the
rise in the cost of food, clothing and
rent The commissioners listened in
silence during the reading of the petit
ton, and when some one moved to lay
it on the table, there were no dissenters.
Then Commissioner Lott brought up
his resolution to allow each of the en-
ployes of the building a weeks vacation
