Contracts for Printing Aggregating
$1,000 Are Inspected.

The state board Of control has opened
bids on large printing contracts for books
and blanks for state institutions. The

up the claim that it is entitled to the
contract for the printing of the blanks

Don't Bet on Another's Game.

never safe to bet on another mans
game" remarked William A. Brady to
several theatrical men. II was riding on
a train and struck up conversation with
a drummer. We discussed the speed OF
the train and differed on it. Finally he
offered to bet that he could tell the time
made between two mile posts nearer than
l could. The bet was made-in fact, sew
eral bets were made. and each time he
was within a second Of the right time.
Finally he told me that his pulse beat
80 to the minute and that by counting
the beats between posts he could tell al
most exactly the time consumed in trav-
cling the mile.
