Olean Nav Lose Shops.

The Bolivar Breeze has the following
to say about the removal of the w. N.
Y. & p. r. r. shops from Olean:
"Olean people are alarmed over the
passing of the w. N. Y. & P. railroad
into the hands of the Pennsylvania sys-
TEN, fearing that it may mean the re-
moval Of the big car shops so long a
source of much revenue to the business
men of the city, to some other point.
1t would be body blow to Olean to
lose the shops and her citizens will not
only make a good fight to retain the
present shops which employ some 25C
men but to induce the Pennsylvania
company to greatly enlarge the plant

Don't go Into Politics.

A tramp met a citizen on the highway
and asked him for a donation on the
ground that he was cripple, one of his
legs being several inches shorter than
the other. The citizen was interested
in the case and began to make inquiries:
"Were. you born that way, my poor fel.
low, or did that limb shrink up after
you were grown?' "Neither one,n an
swered the tramp. "My short limb is
not the trouble. 1t is all right. 1t is
the other leg that compels me to ask
your charity. I was once a happy and
prosperous man with two as good legs
as there were in that neck 20 woods. /
was fool enough to mix in politics. I
ran for Office and WAS in the hands of
my friends. You see what my friends
did to that leg. When the campaign
opened it was an eighth of an inch
shorter than the other one. Now it ex-
ceeds the other in length fifteen inches.
If you have ten cents about your per.
son loan it to me that | may go drown
my sorrow"
Moral-The wise man will steer clear
of politics unless he has tolerably
sure thing and is able to 60 away on
visit during the campaign.

GOOD WORK BY CHILDREN 1T WILL Be GREAT SKI
PUBLIC SCHOOL PUPILS PROVIDE
THANKSGIVING DINNERS FOR
POOR FAMILIES
CLEVELAND SCHOOLS RECORD
Pupils of That Institution Have
Supplied Twenty Poor Families
Unusual Generosity Has
Been Shown.

The school children of st. Paul have
two reasons for being happy today-frst,
because it is Thanksgiving day and the
schools are not in session, and second,
because they have done much to aid the
poor in their celebration of this day.
81 do not think 1 am exaggerating, -
said Supt. Lewiston yesterday, when
say that the schools of this city have
distributed over $4,000 worth of food and
clothing to the poor this year, so that
they, too, might enjoy the great day.
For over a month past the school chill
dren have been distributing articles of
clothing among the poor, and it goes
without saying that the work has been
appreciated The last few days have
been devoted to the gathering of proVis-
ions and today the poor undoubtedly feel
as if they have not been forgotten.
AS an instance of what all the schools
in the city have done it might be stated
that the G o received a telephone
message yesterday to the effect that the
Cleveland school has supplied twenty
families with all the necessaries for
Thanksgiving. The board of education
as yet has no record of what the schools
have accomplished individually but it is
safe to say that most Of them have done
as much as the Cleveland

had their flags at half mast in respect

The International Fat Stock show
which will be held in Chicago next week
bids fair to be one of the most inn
portant ever held in the world. Minnie
sofa will take prominent part.
1homas Shaw, professor of animal hus-
panGry at the university experimental
station, yesterday told some very inter-
esting things about the show. He said
in part:
All the beef breeds of cattle will be
represented, all the mutton breeds Of
sheep, and all the breeds of swine in
America. 1t is supposed to be the largest
snow of fat stock ever held in the world
one feature Of the show will be con,
test between the agricultural colleges of
the United States. The four states COM
peting are Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin
and Michigan. The competition will be
between different classes of fat CATTLE
fat sheep and fat swine.
Yesterday Minnesota sent two carloads
of stock to Chicago for the competition
One car load consisted entirely of diff
ferent breeds of swine grown upon the
university experimental station. Two
beautiful short horn calves were sent to
Chicago, each weighing between LOCO
l,lCO pounds, although the calves are not
yet more than eleven months Old This
contest promises TO be prominent
feature of the show every year.
