Local Interest to Be Perused at

The average Americus old maid did
not exercise more than usual vigilance
yesterday. She has been April fooled
so often, dear old soul, that she is
hardened to it.
It is said that $3.50, 900 was spent in
this country last year in the purchase OF
corsets. While no doubt squeeze"
on the part of the trusts it was lot of
money that went to waist.
The bill fiends made the rounds yes
terday, it being the first of the month,
but most of the dunned pretended to
think an April fool joke was perpe-
trated and refused to settle
Yesterday was payday at the city
hall, and Clerk Davis and Assistant
Clerk NIsbet distributed something
like 50, 600 among the glad employees IN
the several city departments.
The threat of the police to arrest va
grants and other street nuisances
probably had the effect of soaring off
the average "April fool' yesterday as
his little sell was not in evidence.
Mr.. W. R. Chapman, who olives at
home in Sumter, sold here recently
four hams weighing 1O1 lbs, or more
than 25 lbs each, for $10.1O. And he
has others quite as large and fine.
Voters will scar ceIY take as much IN
terest in tomorrow's election as they
manifested in the recent primary.
The issue is now settled, and tomOr-
rows vote will be perfunctory only.
The reserved seat sale for the Walk
or Whiteside engagement here Thurs
day night will begin this morning at
Hudson 8. This attraction should

Judge Littlejohn and members of
the Americas bar are in Preston this

Some apprehension was felt yester-
day for the safety of the city's cat
patch on Cotton avenue, where the
sidewalks have fallen down. Itshould
be covered tonight with a blanket or

The money sent out of the State for
things that ought to be raised in the

saved is money made. The best way
to save money is by raising what can

MICE QUICK TO LEARN.
So Says a Maine Man Who Finds
Them Interesting Pets.


Out on Forest avenue is a mouse
fancier whose residence, lest he lose
caste with his neighbors, is withheld.
In pen he has half a dozen or SO or
binary field mice.
'They are the most sociable pets I
ever had" he remarked, 'and any one
of them will rise to attention as he
hears my step approach the pen. l
have had these young ones about six
months. They don't live long when
cooped up, and they win come freely
to my hand to eat or drink Some of
them are so tame that they will climb
to my shoulder and display not the
slightest alarm at being touched. They
haven't acquired so much faith III all
humanity, however. and have refused
to trust any one else so far.
while mice eat a great deal for an
animal so small when food is album
dant, they can exist fer a surprising
long time with next to nothing. Any
one whose house has been invested
with mice and who had passed weary
weeks when everything that possibly
could serve as food was carefully I'M

from the ceiling by rope and after
a weeks fast placed mouse at a hole
in the ceiling above the basket. He
descended some eight feet or more on
a slender cord and safely reached his
haven, later climbing up again.
"All of my mice l have taken from
nests about the premises and notice
that they invariably seek shelter be-
low or behind something, never in so
exposed a locality as almost any other
animal would select For nest pa

to satisfy, and the exceeding fineness
with which it is chopped suggests some

Of breath to do so" remarked a subur-
ban physician yesterday I'm many
cases do advise moderation in the use
of the weed, and when patient has a
weak throat there is one thing that
positively insist upon, and that is that
he shall not ride in the smoking cars

Cathultc Raster Onerln as

New York, April Arch bishop Cor.
rigan sent to all the pastors of the arch
diocese last week circular letter, which
was read IN the churches, announcing
that the money annually collected in the
Christmas and Easter offerings of the
different churches, heretofore used for
the orphans under the care of the Cath
olic church in the city, is in future to
be used for religious educational work
here. The amount averages yearly al
most $500 The change in the uses to
which it is to be put is made possible by
the recent sale of the two Catholic or
phan sites in the city. These sites, ac-
quired from the city at a nominal price
90 years age, were sold for So, 900, 600.
