How They Didn't Pay Car Fare.

Baltimore Sun: They We're three cx
ceedngly pretty debutantes OF last year
two sisters and a friend. They wanted
to go shopping at a leading dry goods
store, where all had half-yearly accounts.
The first sister to descend the stairs be-
fore starting called back: zone of you
girls bring car fare-I have none!' The
friend, being in like povertystricken case,
fastened after and in her turn called out:
NAB, you bring car fare--we haven't any,
and the car is coming!"
The unhappy Nab, who had unlimited
credit, but not a copper, glanced wildly
around and spied on the mantel a dime
savings bank. 1t was an automatic bank
that opened only when So had been de-
posted, but at least it contained money
Selling it she fastened after her com
panions and fairly fell into the car.
The other girls waved the conductor
haughtily aside, and, not knowing the cir
cumstances, the passengers were con.
Vulsed at seeing the debutante, crimson
with embarrassment, timidly offer the
conductor the bank, with the explanation
that it contained all the money they had
and perhaps he could open it. From sheer
establishment the man took the bank ant
his futile efforts to open it.
Would-be passengers, unseen by the
motorman, were left wildly signaling with
pins and penknives were fruitlessly Of
fered, and it is probable that they would
be trying yet il one of the girls had not
suddenly espied their destina ton and fled
from the car The second girl followed
suit.
20, please-please give me my bank ,
entreated the third (who afterwards con.
fessed her heart was in her throat lest he
should not return it, Of the now thorough.
ly irate conductor. With the exclamation
Here, take your old thing" the aggra.
waited man flung the offending bank into
her outstretched hand, violently pulled
the strap, and the car sped on.

A HapDy BOy,

Oldenburg, Ill, Sept. 2.-The doctors
all failed in the case of little thirteen
year-old Willie Keil, who suffered with
acute Rheumatism.
For over three months, the poor little
fellow suffered eXcruciating torture
His father, who had done everything
he could think of, saw a new Rheu-
matism Remedy advertised-Dodd's
Kidney Pills. He bought some, and
soon his little son showed signs of
Improvement. Three boxes cured him
completely, and he has not a symptom
of Rheumatism left
This miraculous cure of case which
had been given up by the physicians,
has electrified Madison County, and
Dodd's Kidney Pills are much-talked-
Of medicine.

Place Riley Pointed Out Did Noa Exist
Whom Poet Was q Boy.

New York Times: II always
thought said the newspaper man,
that that proverb about prophets in
their own country was all bosh until
y spent week in Greenfield, Ind, last
summer. That's the town, you know,
Where Riley was born and raised. Now.
you suppose on general principles
that the toWnspeople would be prouder
OF tnat than OF any other fact in con-
nectlon with Greenfield, but the truth
Is that the younger set scarcely know
that Riley ever lived there. and the
older people are rather envious of his
reputation, and bear him no good will
one old lady with whom 1 talked the
inrst day or two I was there is a fair
sample Of the whole town.
Did you ever know James Whit
comb Riley?' l asked. with what I
thought was proper amount of care.
Jim Riley! she shifted, why, yes,
OF course. I've known Jim Riley ever
since him and my boys used to play
tag roun' in our back yard, an shift
less lot he allus was, I can tell YOU.
Why, he never did nothin' till he was
|tWenty-one or two year old but Law
aroun' on store boxes and CAB. Ust to
pretend he was reporter, but it's
mighty little reportin' he ever did. Ev-
'erybody said he was no good Laws
isakes, If he hadn't happened to hev
made a hit with them PONIES of his, he
never would hev amounted to enything
in the world
He seems to have succeeded pretty
we'll IN that line, though 1 remon-
strated feebly.
Oh. yes, I guess he's pretty we'll
'hxed, and he's got a big enough name,
such as it is. l must say I don't think
much of his poetry, though. Take that
"Old Swimmin' Hole" pome of his
Why, l believe Jim Riley made the
whole thing up out Of whole cloth. Did
you ever hear about the time he was
here three or four years ago, and was
laxed to point out the original swim
min hole? Well. he showed them a
likely enough place until somebody
come up and proved that the place
never existed at all when Riley was a
boy. The creeks channel has been
changed since then, an the hole he
pointed out was in the dug channel
That shows jest how much truth there
is in Jim Riley's poetry

|-Hennessy Leroyle and splendid COM
pany in "Other Peoples Money" This
bright sparkling comedy was seen here

ever presented in Americas. Hennessy
LeroyIe can be said to be the ideal of

GAMBLER WANTS A REDUCTION.
Tn Expense Account of State For Next
Year.

Americas, in the matter Of reducing
municipal expenses, has worthy tx
ample to follow in our state executive
who, it said, will urge at the hands
of the Legislature, soon to convene,
! legislation which will cut the states
wearing apparel to fl the cloth
Gov. Gambler will ask that all PEN
sions be put on an urgent basis.
He thinks that there has been I'M
necessary sentimentality about the
matter, especially since more than
| 5. 900 pensioners now have to make
affidavit that they are without means
of support, or, in other wo DIS, are pau
pers.
He will also recommend the cutting
down of several of the appropriations
made last ear for the year 1902, in or
der to wipe out the deficiency of 1857,
900 that exists in the state treasury in
spite of higher tax rate on a largely
increased valuation.
The Governor sees the necessity for
retrenchment and he will urge it In
the strongest terms.
The trustees of the Soldiers Home
are going to ask for $4,000 this year,
for support and maintenance instead of
$15, 900 as last year, for the purpose it
is said, of using small portion of the
amount to increase the fund for re-
building the home.
The Legislature at this session will
have to appropriate $50, 900 for the
support of the state militia and $24, 900
for the payment of premiums on in
surance policies, These policies are on
the states buildings.
The Governor will also recommend
a reduction in the school fund as he
did last year.
