fine horse and top buggy and the girl
q costly piano. 1t Is dad that hustles

may revel in luxury and make tarnal

I'd ruther lay out here among trees

It's kinder lonesome, mebbe you'll say,

But an hour out here's better'n o day

As for that just look at the flowers aroun'
A.peepin' their heads up all over the

And the fruit attending the trees way

You don't find such things as these in
Or, ruther, in the city.

THE KIND OF MEN WHO NEVER.
MARRY.

"There was never yet bachelor OF
40 whose heart has not been at some
woman's feet, to take or leave as she
would" says we'll known writer, and
this, generally speaking, is absolutely
true.
However, there is one type OF man,
very rare one fortunately, who from
a mixture OF cold love Of self and mi
serliness, rigidly eschews matrimony.
Or such one the story is told that
being on one occasion somewhat i'm.
pressed by the bright eyes and red
lips Of q certain damsel, he gave some
thought to the married state and
pondered over the advisiability of
entering it. Racked with doubt, lie
ordered large meat pie to be pre-.
pared and on its appearance divided
1t in half. There was ample! Then
the reflection crossed his mind that
10 course OF time a subdivision might
be necessary.
The portions were divided by a
ftrembling hand into two. He looked,
hesitated, and scraped them all on to
his own plate. The damsel had to
find another lover.
Men who regard marriage as "an
insane desire to provide for another
fellows daughter or "the picturesque
gateway to commonplace estate"
are far better unmarried. The TEN.
porary devotion Of their little souls
would make no woman the happier.
This is the way they "tie the knot"
up in Oklahoma:
The squire was half.soling his plow
shoes when Zerubbabel and Dorothy
rode up. .,.l ..
II rcckin we needn't light?" asked
the groom.
NO." said the squire: "hats off In
the presence of the court; hold up
your left hand and and be sworn"
Zerubbabel removed a cap made Of
coon skin he had treed when he was q
'lettle barefoot while she, modestly
biushing, released her brilliant braids
and exhibited face as fair as Ewes.
"You and each Of yOu," began the
squire, ''solemly swear that the evi.
dence you shall give in this case shall
be the truth, the whole truth, aud
nothin' but the truth?
You Zerubbabel, do solemly swear.
that to the best OF your knowledge
and belief, you take this woman to
have an to hold for yourself, your
heirs, exkyters, administrators and
assigns, for yours and their use and
behoof forever"
II do," said the groom.
"Dinah Dorthy, do yer take this yer
man for yer husband to have and to

that you are lawfully seized IN fee sim.

II do" replied Dinah Dorthy.

BACK TAXES.
COLLECTORS GOT TEN THOU
SAND DOLLARS IN TEN DAYS.
GIVEN ANOTHER sTINT-MUsT COLLECT
$4,000 BY JANUARY 6-sUTTs TO
BE BROUGHT FOR TAX DEEDS
AND SEWER ASSESSMENTS.

/ Ellsworth's tax co lectors met the re-
quirements OF the vote passed by the alder
men at their December meeting. for the
Statements Of the several collectors sub
mitteG at the recess meeting of the board
last Thursday evening, showed collections
as follows: Collector Breshahan, on tax
deeds and taxes OF 1895 6 Z 8, s825; Col
lector Whitcomb, on 1899 tax. s513 81; Col
lector Holmes, on 1900 and 1901 taxes,
s9,S07.51. This makes to al OF ell ,146 is
collected within the ten days.
This is remarkably good showing, and
indicates what can be done in the way OF
tax collection when heroic measures are
used. The city government has got the
ball rolling now, and does not mean to let
up. At Thursday evenings meeting the
collectors were given another stint-S5 600
before January 8. At the same meeting
votes were passed instructing the mayor to
bring suit for the collection of tax deeds
and sewer assessments.
/ THE MEETING.
Mayor Greedy, Aid. Stuart, Brady and
Jellison were present at the Thursday
| evening meeting. In the absence OF Clerk
Wyman on account OF illness, w. H.
Titus was chosen clerk pro tenn.
The statements of the several collectors
showing collections as reported above,
were received, and the members of the
board expressed qualification at the work
done. At the same time the aldermen
expressed themselves as not inclined to let
up in the least on the delinquent tax
payers.
One OF the aldermen said he could not
| understand why citizens who uphold the
system of municipal government, who are
generally accounted 'good citizens" in the
community, who enjoy all the benefits of
the city-the sewers, electric lights, side
walks, etc, and whose children have all
the advantages of the schools-yet expect
the city to pay for, all these things, at a
monthly expense OF something like "a 900,
and they not contribute one cent toward
the expense for an entire year, but on the
contrary, make the expense heavier by
necessitating the borrowing OF money by
the city.
The board passed vote instructing the
mayor to bring suit at the next January
term OF the supreme court for the collec-
ton of such sewer assessments as remain
| unpaid.
1t was also voted that the city clerk be
instructed to notify the collectors of taxes
to pay to the city tr\esurer from their
several commitments. o ~before the 9th
day OF January, 1902, the sum OF 5000,
and II the said sum is not so paid, that the
city will proceed against the bondsmen of
said collectors.
Another vote was passed instructing the
mayor to bring suit at the January term
for the collection of such tax deeds as
deemed necessary by the board OF alder
men.
The meeting then adjourned.
