In Case United States and Germany
Engage in q War.

London, Dec. 30.-Commenting on the
london Times statement from Wash
ington hat persons of considerable Inn
portance in official circles there profess
to believe that war between the United
States and Germany is inevitable, the
st. James Gazette, though 1t does not
believe that such a disaste will be al
lowed to occur over a dispute in regard
to the debts of Venezuela to Germany,
says that If it does there can be no
doubt that English sympathies will be
with America. AT the same time the

services will be under the direction of
the K. of P. of which order the de-
seased was q member.
Mr.. Baker was one of the most pop

CASH REGISTER
OF Fruit Dealers Broken Into Money and
Confectionery Stolen.

Some time Sunday morning burglars
entered the store of Chas. Sadly, the
Arabian fruit and confectionery dealer
on Tiber Way, and helped themselves
promiscuously to the contents of both
money till and store.
Entrance was effected by breaking
the pane of glass in window in the
rear of the store. Through this aper-
ture the burglar entered the cellar,
ascended the steps of staircase
leading to the upper floor and pushed
open the heavy trap door which gave
entrance to the room.
The cash register was broken open
and $55.47 in money was secured. Five
boxes of cigars, three boxes of candy
and fifty boxes of cigarettes and an un-
known quantity of chewing gum, candy
and confectionery were carried off by
the thieves.
There is no clue to the perpetrators
of the burglary.

In Memory Of Neal Dow.

The meeting at the West Side Con-
gregational church Sunday afternoon
in memory of Neal Dow was very in
tersting one. DR.. Buckley and Rev.
Hawk in their characteristic manner
earnestly presented to the audience
the great value and work of the re-
former. An interesting sketch had al
so ben prepared and was read by one of
the members of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union. under whose aus
pices the meeting was held. DR.. Bick-
ly stated how the great nations and
countries of the world were beginning
to realize their responsibility with re-
gard to the great evil of intemperance
OF Germany especially much has been
said by the leaders Of that country
bearing upon this subject. A valuable
pamphlet entitled, "The alcohol ques-
ton from a German standpoint" has
been compiled by Mrs. j. w. H..
Stuckenberg, in which are given the
ideas and opinions of the leading men
of Germany. 1t can be procured in
both languages for the small amount
of five cents by sending to the New

I'm sitting by myself tonight, the
house is cold and still,
My wife is playing "Euchre" at some
place upon the Hill;
very seldom see her now--I'm not up
on her list
Since Mary got the current craze for
what is known as whist"
She reads it up from morn till night
from books she has thereon;
When l get home to supper now l find
that Mary's gone.
And in her sleep she says TOP Scores,
and talks about "The Lead"
Which makes me very weary, boys,
and very tired indeed.
Itell you, Mary isn't right, she's losing
all her sense,
Attending what she calls Her Lovely
Tournaments"

she got stuck on Poker"
For now she chucks me on the chin
and tells me I'm her Joker"

she comes in quite late,
And tells me how she won pot by
having made Straight"
They talk a heap and swell themselves
about the things they got,
But, up to date, I've never seen her
bringing home that POT"
I'll swear don't see how the Girls caa
revel in such slush;
It's Greek to me when Mary says, II
made Diamond Flush
While Mrs. Jones, from Avondale, was
shaking at the knees
And thought she had me beaten with
her 'Meas'ly little Threes.'"

downright daffy Ounce,
Because I do not understand. 81 only

All owing to arrangements being

But Mary won't stop playing-she says
she hasn't Lost

Happlsst Time O'Year.

Hasten hither gentle Spring,
Why loiter on the way?
Come, and lovely flowers bring,
The rose and lily gay.
Bring the fiow'rs that sweetly cheer
The invalids lonely hours;
The happiest time of all the year,
Is when she sees the flowers.
Call the pretty violets blue,
Living mid the green;
And the dandelion, too,
With it's golden sheen.
Pretty little spears and shields,
Protect each tiny violet;
And growing in the verdant fields,
Forget-me-not, sweet flow'ret.
Listen, brides song so clear,
When April and her showers
Bring to life the woodland drear,
And wake the sleeping bowers.
Diamonds sparkle on their gowns,
April smiles today;
Tomorrow she may all be frowns,
Her tears may fall astray.
