CANTONIAN !
LAUGHED
New York Broker Took
Offense.
SMOTE COOKS NOSE
Wall Street Man Fled After
Punching the Canton Man
Who Was convuIsed
by His Joke.

New York. May 25.-The red wine
which flows after the fray mingled
with amber tinted tide of beer in the
Hoffbrau restaurant. next door to
Shanley's. Broadway and Thirtieth
street, Thursday night at 10: 80, because
man from Canton, o., thought he
could laugh at any joke he chanced
to hear
The gentleman whose nose gave a
carmine tint to the amber food, was
George Cook. II is altogether likely
that Mr.. Cook will be unable to see
anybody who approaches him unless
they go far to starboard or to port, for
HIS SWOLLEN PROBOsCIS
bids fair to shut off the view directly
forward
He was one of the guests who, all
unsuspectingly, accepted the invitation
of Mr.. Charles A. Parr, manager of the
National Salt company, 26 Broadway,
to dine at the Hoffbrau, Thursday
night, and for time as the viands
and the lubricants of various colors
succeeded one another on the white
cloth, 1t seemed that there was nothing
lacking.
At table near that at which sat
Mr.. Parr and his. guests were several
Wall street men who had drunk deep.
Their conversation ran to the funny
things on 'Change-the men who had
money one minute and tickets the
next, the prettier conceits OF double
dealing, the madness of the ticker. AT
length one of them, a rare racon-
teur, told an anecdote which so
TICKLED MR.. COOK,
Of Canton, o.. that he swallowed at a
gulp the mouthful with which he had
been clinched, and said vociferously:
"O-ho-ho-ho-ha! Ha-ho-ho-oho-aha!
Jemimi!"
The raconteur had told the Joke
solely for his friends. He VOTED not
of the man from Canton, nor did he
for moment regard himself in the
light OF joke syndicate. So, when
Mr.. Cook had shaken off the paroxysm
he addressed him pointedly thus:
who in the seventh Gehenna are
you laughing at?"
What in the eighth gallery of To-
phet is that to you?" responded McKin-
ley's fellow townsman.
This" said the broker, and rising
suddenly he
SMOTE THE CANTON NOSE
even as Moses .smote the rock in the
weary land-with fluid results.
Mr.. Paar and several walters sprane
into the fray. The floor was red. Mr.
Cook seemed to be trifle unstable or
HIS legs. Some one shouted for the
watch. The man who told the joke and
emphasized it by bleeding Mr.. Cook
copiously, fed.
Napkins soaked in water were ap'
applied to Mr.. Cooks outraged nose
which so swelled with indignation az
to threaten to raise the roof and wider
the Hoffbrau. The police arrived. Mr.
Paar, maddened by the assault upor
his inoffensive guest, gave his card t:
the constables and urged them to take
the assassin's trail.
Thereafter he announced that HI
would remain at the bar all nigh
awaiting the testers return. There
wasn't any great likelihood that thu
man would come back. Mr.. Cook stFok
ed his nose gingerly and appeared to b,
plunged in gloom. Up to a late houl
he seemed in no danger of succumbinl
to another paroxysm of mirth.

PICKLE FACTORY.
Meeting to Be Held Next Saturday to Consider
The Subject.


Elsewhere in this issue will be
found notices of meetings to consider
the subject of taking steps to build a
pickle factory at Grand Rapids this
season. This matter was quite
| thoroughly discussed in the REPORTER
last year, but it might be well to
reiterate the points of advantage to
the business men of this city as well
as to the farmers of this section in the
ablishment of such an industry at
this point.
The first item of advantage to the
farmers is the fact that it makes "a
sure, profitable and nearby market
for garden vegetables that otherwise
could not be raised with profit in any
considerable quantity.
Second, nearly every farmer could
devote few acres to this branch Of
farming without interfering with his
them some ready money all through
the summer season before the regular
time arrived for marketing their crop.
Third, many people with small
acreage could make an excellent profit
whole time and land to the work,
IHHUcdu vi WoihlnS lol oOilcI pcoplc
half the time to n.ake living.
Fourth, this additional money in
the hands of the farmers and garden
ers could but add to the value of the
farmers in this section as patrons Of
the stores and business men of this
city. Less credit would be asked
and all people would make more
money by the establishment of the
pickle factory, besides Grand Rapids
would be much better market town
than it has ever been before. Let
everybody interest themselves in the
success of these meetings next Friday
and Saturday.

BASE BALL LEAGUE.
Wausau Daily Record.

Wausau Daily Record.
Wausau lovers of the great national
game may rest assured that we are to
have series of good base ball games
here during the coming summer.
The finance committee which has
been soliciting for funds, has met
with such success that there is little
question but what q good team can
be organized and maintained in this
city during the coming summer, and
from adviceS received from the other
cities along the river, as well as from
Marshfield and Amigo, there is no
question but what clu bs will be formed
in these cities and league organized,
after which series of games will be
scheduled.
Local pride and interest will be
stimulated by the formation of the
league, and as a result the patronage
will be better and the burden of
supporting the team will not fall Cd
a few of the more enthusiastic.
Geo. Grignon, who has unpired
about all the ball games in this town
is enthusiastic about organizing a
team in Grand Rapids and joining the
Wisconsin Valley League. He will
undertake the work of organizing a
team as soon as the spring elections
are out OF the way. The plan is to
hire two or three good men and fill
out the team with local players. II
is expected that there will be many
transient people in town this summer
who would help patronize and greatly
enjoy the national game. We believe
it would add to the attractions of the
town and is class Of amusement that
is harmful to no one and enjoyed by
all

MAY HAVE DOUBLE
LABOR DAY PARADE.
Rivalry Among Governing Bodies
George Meintz Elected Mar
shall by @. L. U.

The conflict between the Central Trades
and Labor Union and the local Building
Trades Council cropped out at the meeting
of the central body yesterday afternoon.
and as a result there may be two rival
workingmen's parades on Labor Day.
The fight is over the division of the
profits. which also gave trouble two years
ago Then and last year the Building
Trades Council received one-thtrd Of the
net profit. Yesterday the Central Trades
and Labor Union voted almost unanimously
to disburse the profits after the celebra-
ton "as the Central Trades and Labor
Union may then decide" The Building
Trades Council will take up the matter at
its meeting Wednesday.
1t had been decided at previous meeting
that the two bodies should arrange for the
parade jointly. A joint permanent committee
was named, with John Grant and G. A.
Baur of the Building Trades Council chair
man and treasurer, respectively. and c. p.
Connolly Of the Central Trades and Labor
Union secretary. The latter body was to
name the grand marshal
This action was entirely disregarded, say
members of the Building Trades Council, by
terday in deciding upon the disposition Of
the profits without first having referred 1t to
the Entertainment Committee. William

said that all outside councils should be

BURLINGTON EARNINGS.
They Will Be Watched Closely Un-
der New Combination

The effect of the crop damages upon the
earnings Of the Burlington will be closely
watched. because of the dividend guaran-
tee upon the stock of that road by the
Northern Pacfic-Great Northern combine
ton. Judging from the reports the crop
damage along the lines of the Burlington is
not as serious as in some other sections
yet. the reports sufficiently serious to
give rise to doubt whether the Burington's
traffic this fall will begin to approach that
shown last year. The Burlington has just
reported earnings for the month of May
They show gross, s4.3i5sS6, an increase Of
S77%6S2. and net sl.161,771, an increase of
S2I7. 09S. The comparative earnings for the
eleven months are as follows:
1901. 1900
Gross eleven months. .SI5 98a 0st 1880 500
Net eleven months. 16.34i.a1 16. III
1t Is seen that for the eleven months Of
1901. the Burlington increased gross earn
ings over the same period of 1900 by s., 422, 522
Owing to the large increase in operating en-
penses, net earnings. notwithstanding the
large increase in gross show decrease of
Sl3360. The large increase in operating ex-
penSes was due to extensive improvements
and additions to equipment. under
taken by the management during the
year. Net earnings of the road,
available for dividends, will this year
be very near that reported last year--or
about per cent upon the stock. with large
portion of available earnings put back into
the property.
