well, look at it," yelled the conductor,
triumphantly, as the car pulled out.
The man acted like gentleman and
showed remarkable self-restratnt even
after he had been struck. He probably
had no right to jump on the buffer, but
he felt that the car was public carrier
and he had the right to demand the use
of it unless there was some good reason
to the contrary, and he evidently could
see no such reason. If he had been told
that the car was on its way to the barn
he would doubtlessly have been perfectly
satisfied to desist, but the conductor, as
a mere piece of overbearing and bump
tiousness, simply refused to answer his
civil question to that effect, preferring
to knock him down Such outrages on
the public should receive effective at

will be in the city today to pay their
tributes to the memory of one of st.
Paurs greatest citizens.
Today is the first day of the last
month in the last year of the nineteenth
months, December derives its name from
the place it held in the old Roman cal
endar, which divided the year into ten
months, December (the tenth, from
'decem," ten), being the last. The days
will continue to grow shorter until the
21st, when the sun begins his upward
march.
No expIanat ton has yet been offered TO
account for the mesmerism that odd

is some magic that draws a man to the
sale of $1,000 suits for 1899, and 2O-cent
ties for 10 cents. The feminine appetite
for bargains is fed to a greater extent
in this direction than the masculine.

NOW AND THEN.

The people of the city of st. Paul have
the amplest reason to congratulate
themselves on the prevailing efficient
and upright administration of their
police affairs. For the first time in six
years they receive daily assurances of
the ability of the department as at pres
ent organized and administered to meet
all the demands of the public safety.
Crime is no longer committed with i'm
punity. Criminals are cow assured that
there is a risk in their calling when
practiced in this community which
makes it both Improbable and danger
GUS And. hence, crimes of violence at
tended by robbery, which were as ram
pant in this city during three successive
Republican administrations as they are
today in the city of Minneapolis, are
now practically unknown to our people.
There has been no crime of any dimen-
sions committed in this city since John
OConnor took charge of the force that
has not been brought to light and it's
perpetrators to the bar of justice. If
conviction has not attended such cases
as often as the people might wish, the
causes, whatever they may be, are not
chargeable against the police depart
ment.
If the reader will turn his mind back
to any period during the year 1899, or
even during the early months of the
present year, and will compare the con-
dition of affairs in this city today since
Mayor Smiths election, with those pre-
calling during that period, he will find 9

the two periods. Confidence games of

SMART SHORT STORIES.

John Knapp, of the st. Louis Repub-
lican, had little use for press agents,
and 1t took a mighty ShreWd man to
get a free puff from him. He never
would publish a lawyers or a doctors
name if he could avoid it, for fear they
might derive some benefit from the free
advertisement. 1t is said that one morn
ing mention was made in the Republican

man having died of Bright's disease. Old
man Knapp hunted up the proof-reader,

''Why did you let that get into the pa

his forefinger the Objectionable para

WHEN JENNA BAKEs A CAKE.
MORNING.

MORNING
There's lot of wild excitement in the
lady cooks domain;
She's gesticulating wildly and attempting
to explain.
With profuse vociferations she goes hur-
rying about,
Breaking htchen-ware and leaving wreck
and ruin in her route
But I'll bet it's nothing serious; I'll place
my life at stake
That Jep1ima has declared that she in
tends to bake cake.
NOON.
From the kitchen to the dining room
there's -four on the floor;
And imprints of houry fingers are upon
the pantry door.
Divers shattered egg shells nestle in the
cushion of my chair.
And the odor OF vanilla impregnates the
atmosphere.
But I'm not surprised or puzzled, these
are signs L can't mistake;
They are things to be expected when
Jeraima, bakes a cake.
NIGHT.
From the cellar to the garnet there's an
endless wall of pain:
Through the house the groans re-echo
and rever5rate again.
Shoeless feet across the carpet patter to
the physic chest
Where we search for some narcotic to
rclIeve the sore distressed.
Batenan's drops, or paregorle, something
for the stomach ache;
We are always THUS afflicted when Je-
NINA balles a cake.
