to the service of the White Breast Fuel company as superintendent of the mines at Cleveland, Ia., in 1880. From that time his rise in the coal business has been rapid. He was ad- vaneed from one position to another until he was made general superin- tendent of the company's business, which position he now holds.
 MT. Phillips was twice elected mayor of the city of Ottumwa on the democratic ticket. He succeeded him. self in 1899 and was defeated for D renomination by the present mayor, T. J. Picker, democrat. His popu- larity was such that he was urged to make the race on an independent ticket, but refused, preferring to stay by the party. Fractional differ ences contributed to. his defeat in the city convention.
 Mayor Phillips ran things on lib eral scale, taking the ground that municipal needs were served the bet ter in that manner. He knows a majority of the coal miners in the state, of whom there is no inconsid- erable number, by name. His stand- ing with them is of the best. He is known as the friend of the laboring man and is public-spirited citizen, as attested by his action in working for the erection of the $50,0oo Carne- gie free public library as against de- termined opposition among the lead- CTS of his own party in Ottumwa.
 As a speaker Mir. Phillips lays no claim to distinction. He is a business man and has made success at it.. He has charming wife who aids him in his ambitions.

Nationality of nrstlsh soldiers.

Among the infantry regiments of the British army ten are nominally Scotch, eight Irish, three Welsh, and l3 English. Of the English regiments 1t is interesting to note how they are apportioned among the various coun-i ties. There are ten for the counties which do not give a name to any regiment; of these the largest is Cumberland, and the most populous is Nottingham. Lancashire possesses seven regiments and a half and York shire four and half. The odd-look- tng fraction is accounted for by the York and Lancaster regiment. The populous counties of Surrey and Mld- dlesex boast of only two regiments and one regiment respectively, though it is we'll known that the rife regiments are largely recruited from London.-Albany Argus.

NO WATER FAMINE.
Contract to August and September of
 Past Two Years.

Contract to August and September of
 Past Two Years.
 The severe rain storms of the past month or two may have caused some people considerable annoyance, the farmers for example, who wanted to attend their having, but they did a world of good in other respects. We don't hear anything this year about sparing the city water, and in eonse- quence very little drunkenness is re- ported about town, and every soul you meet bears unmistakable evidence of having taken his or her morning bath. It was different a year ago, when there was not water enough for uo- nestle purposes, and people who did not have wells were obliged to use something stronger for drinking pur- poses, and the washing of hands and faces was not thought of. so that many good citizens were tipsy more than half the time, and naturally clean folks had to go about without their customary ablutions. This may ap- pear like overstating the facts, but such is not the case. During the months of August and September of the past two years several families had no water in their houses and the off cials were constantly talking about an impending water famine and had peo- pie so scared that they feared to open the faucets. It is different this year, and as a result the community is sober. clean and apparently happy. The heavy rains kept the reservoirs filled and wells that went dry during the past few summers yielded an abundant supply of water this year.

He was the first person to assert that
oil existed at Spindle Top Heights. This

of the discovery and refused the early
offers that were made for his property.
