A Public Building Needed.

The Commercial Club has reported.
through a committee composed of Messrs.
Larson, Sperry and Robertson, in favor
of government building to cost $50 900.
The government pays S540 year for a
post office and $40 for the land office.
The fact is that many government officials
are compelled to pay their own rent.
Among the reasons urging an appropria-
ton the committee says that in all prob
ability the state will soon be divided into
more than one federal district conrt field
and North Yakima, being the chief city
in central Washington, Will naturally be
the place selected for regular sittings of
an additional court. The comparative

that this strength is due to some effort

From the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.
AS a ragpicker. James Higginson,

eyed the pile upon pile of toys wistfully.
while memories of boyhood days chased
each other through his befuddled brain.
He remembered how he had played with
companions in those golden days when
care was an unknown quantity. sorrow a
stranger, and the horizon of life limited
by the rising and setting of each days
sun. The desolate waste that spanned the
period between those days and the present.
the useless life that left him old wretched
and alone. of no worth 10 the world or
himself, was forgotten and the first and

Picking up two toy pianos and small
locomotive and train of cars, Higginson
tottered out as unnoticed as when he en-
tered the place. To his wretched quarters
the stolen toys, only to realize. when he
found himself secure from observation,
that he had been dreaming. The day for
toys had passed long since for him. and
their presence only recalled memories that
now seemed TO him a mockery.
That night and the next day they re-
manned in his room, until finally he could

turned, the toys confronted him The keys
on the pianos tangled out the discord Of

no boys 10 whom the toys could have been
given; he feared to sell them, and dreaded
returning them to the owner-for that
meant arrest. At last remorse conquered
fear and yesterday Higgnson again tot
tered into the store and told his story.

Tampa Politicians in Doubt.

Mayor F. L. Wing OF Tampa. is now
known as the sphinx of the city. Since
his induction into Office he has been de-
luged with applications for political pre-
ferment, and delegations, individually and
collectively, have waited on him. Pleas
and demands have been made upon him
for office, but there has been but little
result, so far as can be seen. Mr.. Wing
is closely keeping his own counsel and
selecting very nearly all his own appoint
ments and the result is that the slate
makers are almost in the dark.

to clean out everybody from the packing
department and allow the society TO put
