The news that the Beers will CON
mated may well cause the Britishers
to think harder than ever. There was
a total misrepresentation among the
English of the fighting powers of the
Beers, and every battle and skirmish
has only served to increase the dis
lance between early prophecies and
later events. Britain has received a
severe chastisement in Africa. from the
effects of which she will not recover
for many a day. And by no means
the least important among the effects
of the war is the loss of prestige among
the nations of Europe that has come
by reason of the successes of the Beers

There are two ways in which the
cause of temperance can best be .d-
vanced. One is by the substitution of
something for the saloon that shall be
as attractive or more attractive to the
average man. The other is to educate
public sentiment, especially employers
and trades unions, up to the point
where excessive indulgence in intoxi-
eating liquor shall be made an abso-
lutte bar to remunerative employment.
A division superintendent of the Chi
cago Great Western railway has made
an order that will go far to enforce
temperance SO far as his employees are
concerned. He has prohibited all en-
ployes from using Intoxicating liquor
in any form at any time. The order
prohibits them from entering a saloon
or using liquor. whether on or off duty
at the time. and discharge without no
tice is made the infiexible penalty for
the violation of the order. If the ma
jority of employers would make such
rules as this, and stand by them. and
the labor unions would cease using
their power and influence to protect
men who habitually use alcoholic liq-
uors to excess. the result would be a
boom for temperance such as the world
has never known before.

There is a vigorous protest going up
against having the stairways of big
buildings wind up about the elevator
shaft, for the reason that the elevator
shaft has a tremendous draught and
place in a building on fire. Stairways
built around an elevator shaft are
blocked up by flames almost immedi-
ately. Fire escapes. though better
than nothing. are still inadequate. but

In other towns of Louisiana besides
the city of New Orleans the fight for
better government is growing warm
err In Monroe. the mayor prints 4
card In the newspapers charging that
the agitation is the work of certain
self announced candidate for the may
ors chair. The mayor goes on to say
that many of those who are yelling
the loudest about the mayors delin-
euencies are themselves law breakers.
and the mayor threatens to show up
some OF the laxness in the enforce
ment of state laws. 1t is one of the
beauties of our governmental system
that there is always somebody else to
switch the responsibility of upon. But
an agitation is not always bad thing.

A STORY OF SENATOR VEST.

From Harper's Weekly.
Senator Vest is older than his years
in fact as well as in appearance. He is
i'll and respondent and refuses to take
a cheerful view of life. Nevertheless
his mind is one of the brightest in the
senate. One day he sank into his chair
sayin gto his neighbor: II am an old
man. and I'll never get over this, -
Come. come. Vest. brace up replied
his neighbor; brace up. and you'll be
all right. Look at Morrill, over there:
he's nearly ninety and is as spry as a
man of forty"
Morrill,! Morrill," said Vest Hes
set for eternity. They'll have to shoot
him on the day of Judgment"

Kansas has been having an amusing
time with King Ned. 1t seems the
Kansas legislature very politely sent a
resolution of coincidence to the king
when his mother died. An acknowl-
edgment came which expressed Ed
wards thanks for the loyalty of the
Kansans. When the kings acknowl-
edgments came one legislator stoutly
objected to the king of England thank
ing the Kansans for loyalty, when po-
likeness was all they meant. and this
Kansan's motion to have the royal ack-
nowledgments stricken from the state
records prevailed. When the king and
Ambassador Choate learned how huff
fly Kansas got over the incident, the
matter was investigated and it was
discovered that by mistake common
form which was used in letters of ack-
nowledgment to all the people in the
British dominions. had been used for
the letter to the Kansans. Choate says
that he understands that Ned feels
awfully sorry his secretaries were so
beastly stupid you know.

Does your mirror do you justice7
You may think not Or perhaps you
would like it to fatter you just little.
If so, you can arrange 1t so the glass

manner than usual. If you do, you on

secret, and the thing Is done.
Did you ever notice. the softest drap-
cry of pure white hung about mirror!
That Is the trick. After your mirror of
faultless glass is thoroughly polished
frame it in pure white gauze, with the
material gathered in the center at the
top and falling wavefike on either side.
Then notice the effect The true tints
Of the complexion will be there little
emphasized. The expression of the
countenance, the light Of the eye, the
color Of the hair, will be accurately re-
Elected, all softened and made more
harmonious than your mirror showed
them before the gauze was used. You
may believe that that subtle bit of
white materially makes the glass tell
nearer the truth than it did without 1t.

Burr.s Self Control

Aaron Burr was by nature and train
ing man of extraordinary self con-
troll. He allowed no circumstances to
throw him of his balance. An anec-
dote told by Rufus Choate to the late
Richard II. Dana, recorded in Mr..
Dand's DIARY" illustrates the callous-
ness which aided Burr so greatly in
controlling himself. Several years after
the death Of Hamilton, killed by Burr
in duel. Burr visited Boston, and Mr.
Devereux of Salem paid him some at
tentions. The :sitor was taken to the
Boston atheneum, where, while the
two men were walking through the gal
lery Of sculpture. Mr.. Devereux hap
pened to catch sight of bust of Ham.
iltOn.
The thought flashed across his mind
that Burr might not care to be con-
fronted with the sight of the features
of the man he had slain. But no. Burr
was undisturbed. He also espied the
bust, and, although Mr.. Devereux had
instinctively turned away, he walked
up to 1t and said in loud tone: "Ah!
Here Is Hamiltonw Then, passing his

WHAT 4 kEWAJNEE
ATTORNEY SAYS OF
DIVISION OF DISTRICT

Among the expressions of opinion on
the necessity of u division Of the Fourth
Judicial circuit left out Of last week S
report is the following
JoHN WATTAWA. Kewaunee Il hear
thy approve Of the change advocated 10y
Hon. Maurice McKeuna Of Fond du Lac
lie has taken up a good deal of time in
pre- utiug statistics which make his
arguments uuanswerable. While the
population Of the Fourth Judicial circuit
Is much larger than the population Of
most of the other circuits, yet there Is
another fact that must be taken into
consideration and that is that all OF
the counties comprising the presel t
Fourth Judicial circuit are old counties
with greatly diversified business inter
ests which necessarily creates a large
volume Of litigation. In Kewaunee
county alone the litigation has greatly
increased within the last several years,
Until three or four years ago our term
of court here never exceeded week or
ten days, and vet recently Il term of
three or four weeks hardly finishes up
the pending litigation for that term.
The interests of Sheboygan, Manitowoc
and Kewaunee counties are identical in
many respects and the three counties
would, / think, make a good and CON
venient circuit, not producing any more
business than can conveniently and
properly be attended TO by one Judge.
If Manitowoc, Sheboygan and Kewau-
nee counties, however, would not be
considered large enough for a circuit
then it seems to me Door county might
be added to the other three countie 70
form the new circuit think, however,
Sheboygan, Manitowoc and kewaunee
counties ought TO embrace the new cir
cut and such Il change ought to be
made ut this session Of the legislature

The Hon Maurice McKenna, of Fond

conversation spoke of the subject OF q
division of this judicial district Mr..
Mckenna. it will be remembered lnllla-
ted the movement for division OF the
circuit feeling as he says that the work
imposed upon the court in this CIRQUE Is
far III excess of what would and should
be legitimate. Mr.. Mckeuna had the
following to say
Il believe that the legislature will
give ear to our petition for Il division OF
this circuit as soon as it is in possession
of the actual condition prevailing here
Just what the division viii be | cannot
yet predict, bat the new circuit will be
arranged 80 rs to conform to the wishes
OF the judges from whose territory the
proposed circuit will b. formed
The bill will be introduced into the
legislature today. having been taken TO
Madison bya committee authorized by
the Fond du Lac bar When it reaches
theJudiciary committee OF the Legislature
it may be amended but our ultimate
hoFe, I think viii be realized.
