keep its contract and not allowed to
crawl out of the hole on a technical

He was all worked up and when AL
derman Ogden said the council was
not present to listen to arguments be-
tween outsiders Mr.. White pointed
his finger at him and said: That's
all right. young fellow, you keep still
You better be trying TO save money
for the taxpayers. I'm here for bust

By permission of the council Mr.
Humphrey stated that Zach Whites
assertion about his lights being bet
ter than the new was ridiculous, as
tests would show that the new lights
were far better than the miserable"
lights furnished by the old company.
He said he was not speaking for the
benefit of the new company but merely
from 4 scientific standpoint and when
Mr.. White claimed that the old lamps
were better than the new he was MAX
ing claim that was monstrous and
absurd.
j. p. Dieter took the floor and
cracked joke at Zach's expense, say
ing that the lights of the new COM
pany caused the lights of The old COM
pany to throw a shadow when they
were burning side by side. The alder
men laughed uproariously.
This incident having closed the bond
sale was taken up.
c. r. Morehead of the school board,
stated that the board favored accept
ing the bond bid that brought in the
most ready cash.
On motion of Alderman Burton the
bid of n. w. Harris of SS3. 302 so. was
accepted.

CROOKS ARE
PREYING UNMERCIFULLY
On Americans in Chihuahua, and Sey-
eral Soft Things Are Reported From
There of Late

American crooks are preying I'M
mercifully on the pockets of the
Americans at Chihuahua. Hardly a
day passes but some American smooth
gets in his work to the amount of sew
eral hundred dollars and the American
colony there is justly sore at their
countrymen tourists.
A nicely dress individual giving his
name as Walters worked several mer-
chants there few days ago and got
safely out of the country. He called
on Nj. w. Allen. a grocery merchant
there, and explained that he wanted
groceries for his laborers at the mines
he was operating west of Chihuahua
Allen thought him straight and put
up about 5000 worth of goods for him.
The stranger tim gave him check for
$500 gold on an Ell Paso bank and Dor
rowed 800 from Allen. Allen was to
send the check to Ell Paso and keep
the rest of the money until the stran-
ger came in again. e also went to
William Dale and made the same kind
of arrangements. The checks were
sent to Ell Paso and turned down of
course, but not until the smooth stran-
ger had gone to parts unknown.
Walters is supposed to be the same
man who borrowed a great deal of
money in this country on the pretense
that he was a nephew of President
Reynolds of the First National bank

There was quite little stir created
last night during the session of the
city council when City Electrician Petit
coIas officially reported in favor of the
new light company and recommended
that the full contract price for street
lamps be paid.
The report brought forth protest
from Zach White of the old company
and in a few moments he, expert Hum

had locked horns. The expert fatty
contradicted Mr.. Whites statements
and pronounced the lights furnished
by the old company to have been

some action be taken to relieve the
situation.
Alderman Grant stated that the
board of health had requested that no

Alderman Badger stated that accord

To Dwarf Trees.

To dwarf trees as the Chinese do you
must follow their methods. They take
a young plant. say Seeding or cut
ting of cedar when two or three inches
high, cut off it's taproot as soon as it
has enough other rootlets to live upon
and replant it in a shallow pot or pan,
allowing the end of the taproot to rest
upon the bottom of the pan. AlIuvial
clay nodded to the size of beans and
just sufficient in quantity to furnish a
scanty nourishment is then put into
the pot. Water, heat and light are per-
mitted on the same basis.
The Chinese also use various me-
chanical contrivances to promote SYM
metry of growth. AS, owing to the
shallow pots, both top and roots are
easily accessible, the gardener uses the
pruning knife and the soaring iron
freely, so that the little tree, hemmed
on every side. eventually gives up the
unequal struggle and, contenting itself
with the little life left, grows just
enough to live and look we'll.

Why She Was Married.

It is queer how ironclad Is the hold
of convention and conventional con-
siderations. They have a tighter grip
and a wider influence than law, rea-
son, sentiment or ethics itself. A wom-
an whose marriage may be termed
mediunly successful admitted can
didly not long ago that at the very last
moment never, never would she have
married her husband had it not been
for the thought of all the conventional
considerations involved.
ION the way to our wedding" said
the woman, I'VE had the most awful
kind of a row that made me vow in
wardly never. never to marry him.
Then at the thought Of the ceremony
to come off at friends house, the
breakfast that, thanks to her, was pre-
pared and the invited guests, and how
they would all talk at any change of
plan, grit my teeth and went through
it. But it was the thought of the con-
ventions alone that kept me up. No
other possible pressure could have in
duced me to marry him after such q
row as we had on our way to the we'd
ding."-New York Sun.

his forefinger toward the tip of his

nouncement of the wonderful bargains
to be had at the department store.
She rushes frantically into the store.
Yes; she can see before her the rem
nant of pongee silk which is selling at
only Is cents a yard. What a crowd
Of excited women are clustered about
the prize!
She forces her way into the thickest
of the crowd. She is tossed this way
and that. She cares not. Her hat Is
pulled off and walked on by the half
crazed mob. She cares not. She
reaches the counter. Ten yards only
of the silk is left.
II will take it," she says, just in ad-

ing for the coveted prize.
The clerk says, 1T is yours" The
woman feels for her purse. She has

The other women exult. They buy

gone. The bargain day is over. There

in the Brandenburg Schulblatt that
Bismarck had a wonderful memory.
"When he had delivered a two hours
speech and looked over our shorthand
reports the next day, he remembered
every expression be had used exactly
