KIckrd on the story.

Probably most writers Of serial sto-
rics are familiar with the sensation Of
receiving letters of commentator or
disapproval from interested readers
who are following up the stories as
they appear in their regular weekly or
monthly installmcnts. Occasionally
some curious person asks for private
Information as 20 what the outcome Is
TO be, while others Offer suggestions
as 10 the disposition TO bc made of the
villain or express n fear that the au-
thor Is TO marry the hero To the wrong
woman.

THE baseball games that have
played during the last month III the
villages of Centerdale and Manton
have attracted much attention, and
have been patronized by large
crowds of people. This interest has
IN a measure been created and kept
up by the rivalry known to exist
between the teams, which was sure
indication that the games would be
played for all they were worth.
One thing, however, the public can
demand of the managements and
players of the ball teams, and that is
an elimination of the senselcss kick
ing against the decisions of the UNI
pres, which has prolonged many
of the games to weary and un-
profitable length. People go to see
ball-playing and not to listen to
oratory. An improvement in this
regard will help the standing OF
the clubs and keep up the attendance
next year.

THE retirement of Councilman
Nathan NJ. Wright from city poll
tics, which was announced in last
Sundays Journal, an undoubtedly
good authority in this case, has
caused considerable surprise III this
section of the city. Mr.. Wright
was the high priest of the annexa-
ton movement, and his election to
the city council was a most natural
sequence. AS councilman, he has
worked early and late for improve
ments in the annexed district, and
his success in this way has more
tan fulfilled the expectations of his
constituents. Mr.. Wright has been
aflable and gentlemanly to men OF
all classes and all shades of politics.
He was considered sure candidate
for the Republican nomination OF
alderman, and his chances of cleo
ton seemed extremely bright. 1t is
understood that Mr.. Wught's retire.
ment is due to business reasons.
His short career sn the council has
certainly been most honorable one,
and he will retire with the respect
of all.
