Millions OF Horsefaesfl.

Americans never spend money ON a
dead thing, and on the recent New
York horse show Americans spent
millions. The aggregate value of the
1900 horses shown in the oval during
the week was 81, 900, 600. The ex-
,penses to the owners in exhibiting
these horses cannot be exactly
estimated, but the amount can be
placed safely at half q million. For
their week OF fnery and frolic the 600
society people who satin the Gardens
100 boxes spent 81, 900, DOC, an average
OF more than $500 for each individual.
The 200, 900 people who passed
through the gate Outing the weeil
spent another 81, 900, 600, an average
OF $5 each person. Here is . total Of
90, 500, 600 spent in honor of the
horse. Can She most sanguine auto
mobilist imagine the American public
spending even q third OF this amount
ON an automobile show? Moreover,
the management gave $50, 900 in
prizes, and the special prizes given
by outsiders amounted to $40, 900
more. The sale of boxes brought
$40, 600, the highest price for q single
Eox being $45a, paid by O. FL. P. Bel

A rrIek Of the plumber,s Trade.

Foreman Parish, of the gas company,
while boring q hole under the pave
ment at Oak and Fourth streets, SO as
to get in a service pipe for gas without
breaking up the pavement, ran his
anger through a lead service pipe con-
neeted with a water main. Water
was flying in all directions, and as the
lead pipe had been laid some thirty
ago, and there was no record to
ssEny with what main it was connected,
the Wa5e-c could not be shut of. Fl.
nally Mr.. Parish broke open the pave
ment and jammed the end of the lead
pipe, and stopped the water from
flowing through it.
The conundrum then was how to
get the pipe repaired. A plumber was
found who was equal to the occasion.
He procured q lot of ice and some
salt, and packed the mixture around
the sslive''end ofthe pipe, and soon froze
the water solid in it. He then cut off
the iammed end, inserted a piece OF
the broken length, made two joints,
and then, removing the ice, the pipe
soon thawed out and the water flowed
through it all right. The spectators
who saw how it was done voted the
plumber . genius, but he claimed NO
extraordinary credit for his skill,
stopping such leaks being only a part
Of his business. Oregonian.

WHEN THE MINISTER COMES TO TEA

Oh ! they've swept the parlor carpet, and
they've busted every chair.
And they've got the tides hangin' jest ex-
actly on the square
And the Rhatnot's fixed up lovely, and the
mats have all been beat.
And the pantry's brimmin' over with the
bully things ter eat.
Sis has got her Sunday dress on and she's
frizzin' up her bangs,
Mas got on her best alpacky and she's askin'
how it hangs,
Pa has shaved a. slick as can be, and In
rugged way up in G.,
And it's all because we re goin' to have the
minister ter tea.
Oh! the tables fixed up gaudy with the
gilt-edged Chiny set,
And we'll use the silver teapot and the
comp'ny spoons. you bet:
And we're goin' ter have some fruit-cake
and some thimbleberry jam,
And f'riZ biscuits" and some d%oughnuts, and
some chicken and some ham,.
Ma, she'll 'pollergize like fury and say every
thing is bad,
And ''sich awful luck with cookin'," she is
sure she never had;
But, er course, she's only bluffin', for it's as
prime as it can be,
And she's only talkin' that way cause the
minister's ter tea.
E~verybody'Il be a-smilin' and as good as
ever wuZ.
Pa won't growl about the vittles. won't like
he generally does,
And he'll ask me would | like anothAE piece
er pie; but, sho!
That, er course, Is only manners, and I'm
s'posed ter answer, No"
Sisll talk about the churcb-Eork and about
the Sundsy-school.
Mall tell how she liked that sermon that
was on the Golden Rule,
And If I upset my tumbler they won't say a
word ter me;-
Yes, a boy can eat in comfort with the min
lister ter tea!
Say! q minister, you'd reckon, never'd say
what wasn't true;
.Sut that isn't 80 with ours, and I jest can
prove it, too.
Cause when Sis plays on the organ so it
makes yer want ter die.
Why, he sets and says it s lovely; and that,
seems to me, s q lie.
But I like him all the samey, and I only
wish he'd stay
At our house fer good and always, and eat
with US every day;
Only think of hayin' goodies every evenin'!
Jimminee!
And I'd never git a seoldin' with the minis
ter ter tea!

Her Terrible Threat.

Some time ago q passenger train in

bank and landed in three feet of
muddy water at the bottom of the
river bed. Within the ears there was
some natural confusion. Men, women
and lunch boxes were thrown into a
heap and not an umbrella o. parcel was
left in the racks. One by one the oc-
cupants Of the rear car ~extricated
themselves from the mass and sought
for means Of escape, while stanching
various wounds caused by broken
glass Every crit was damned tight.

should be managed.
wish briefly 70 call attention to the
custom prevailing OF presenting TO the
city council petitions for increase OF
salaries at the very end of the year.
I deprecate this custom and believe
that It would be we'll for you 10 pass
a resolution that no petirion for in

the city council later than on the first
day of October in any year. and that
no report OF the committee. to which

thereto. shall be received later than the
18th day Of November.
CONCLUSION.
For two years the most of us have
labored together in the performance OF
what We have conceived TO be our pub
lie duty with harmonious relations ex-
listing between us. On several occasions
there has bee of course. conflict Of
opinion between the legislative and
executive departments but in no in
stance has any bitterness OF feeling
been left on eithsr side whatever may
have been the ultimate result. You
have conceded TO me an honesty of opin
ion, and L have accorded the same 10
you. For a continuance Of those de-
lightful relations earnestly plead with
this new city council
1t is inevitable that we shall some
times disagree, but i can assure you
that in no case where II will be a
question OF pure judgment between fff y
other equally intelligent men and my
self. Will ] set up my opinion against
theirs. Should an executive follow any
other rule than this IL would amount 10
a protest against the existence or the
legislative department.
You must realize. however. that fire.
quently measures are passed by both
branches of the city council in haste !.
that often resolutions are adopted in
the best OF faith whose scope and effect
are not entirely comprehended that
I'm the leisure which is given to me OF
at least ten days consideration, i am
able 10 discern errors and defects
which may not have been apparent 10
you: that occasionally by deliberate IN
vestigation I am able 10 discern new
light which has escaped your vision.
In such instances. in the past. j have
freely exercised the right Of veto which
the cl arter Of the city confers upon me.
and must exercise the same In the fu-
ture IL conscientiously discharge the
duties Of my office.
trust that In the year 10 come our
friendly relations will continue. and
that we shall freely consult together
in relation TO the measures that shall
come before US.
With unity of purpose and confidence
in each other we ought to accomplish
much for the city's good
To the citizens Of Providence. who
have conferred upon me the honor OF
a third election extend my most APP
