Then again the unlucky ward heelers who risked all their HARD-EARNED CASH got jar because they bet on the wrong side We'll the defeated warriors must have received a sort ofa memory sjar;" it must be heart-break- ing for candidates who have worked like the old dickens for months, to get left after doing everything they were able to do and saying they'd do things that didn't lie in their power, to be compelled to go away back and take a sleep. Well. either side had to win, and the side that lost went down with a jar Now that the primaries are over, let Us tell you something about jars. You see. we have very large stock of warranted one quart jars and when filled with nicely made preserves are quite a treat later on in the sea- son.

DOUBLE FUNERAL TOMORROW.
John and Joseph oxley, Brothers Died on the Same Day.

John Oxley died at 5:30 o'clock yes terday afternoon at his home, 9O9 East Main street. His brother Joseph who lived in the same house, was found dead in bed yesterday morning.
 Both were we'll along in years and had been in poor health for some time past, so that their deaths hardly could be called a surprise. The double fu- neral will take place tomorrow mOr1l- ing at 8:30 o'clock with a mass of requiem at the Sacred Heart church and interment in St Joseph's ceme- tery. John and Joseph Oxley spent the major part of their lives together, and the period that elapsed between the time of their calling away was so brief that it mght be said they accom- panied each other through the valley of death into the great hereafter. They were well known among the old CT residents of the town, and i'll their day and time were sturdy, active men.
