Superintendent Rattlesdorfer, of the board of charities, has requested an opinion from Corporation Counsel Dag gett to define the duties of the board with regard to the care of insane pa tients who are not paupers. Under the present practice it is often impossible to obtain a commitment from the pro- bate court, as many calls occur outside of the court hours.
 It is also desirable to know exactly the status of the police department in such cases.

JAKE DALE.

"A new pOet, JOSepn Mills l1dISOl,
whose verse reminds one strongly of
Bret Harte's earlier and breezier
verses, has just begun to have his work
noticed by the magazines. In the Au-
gust number Of Lesle's Monthly there
is ballad by him called Jake Dale"
which Is one Of the best things he has
yet published.
What. stranger? You never hcerd tell o.
Jake.
Jake Dale, O. the Lucky George?"
You must a. been raised in the East, my
son,
If you never clapped ears to the yarn
that's spun
OF Jakey Dale an the race he won
In the year o. the big ice gorge
Come March in the spring O. 81,
An the river broke at Pierre.
An come rantin' down on the clean
rampage
She marked 36 on the Yankton gauge;
Which 1 reckon you know is some of a
stage,
An she covered the bottoms here.
Yeh see that pint acrost the bar
With the rifle O. shoal below?
Well. that's where the widow O. ole Buck
Slack
Once't had claim an a drift-wood
shack
Where she lived an slaved with her
young-ln pack.
All which was some time ago.
Well. we on the George" had tumbled
The roar O. the jam was wild
When we heard a cry through the shriek-
in night
An there on the pint, in the pale moon
light,
A wavin' an yelin' with all her might.
Stood Buck Slacks youngest child.
When all at once we heerd yell,
An down cross the willow bank,
A layin' course that was skeercely
snug,
Came Jakey Dale, with his whisky jug,
AS drunk as the mate of a log-raft tug
An a-swearin' somethin' rank.
"You rust-chawed fragments O. junk"
seZ he.
"Now what do you think you've found?
A-standin' round on this old bilee tank
Like bunch O. frogs on floatn' plank:
Be yeh lookin' fer gold in yon cut-bank?"
An then he heerd that sound.
AS quick as the jump of a piston-rod
He was over the wheel-boX guard;
An before we could figger ON stoppin'
him.
He had slashed the falls from the long
boats rim
An was out past the slush O. the chau-
nels brim.
A-pullin' quick an hard.
When he showed her off from the gumbo
pint
She reeled like sawyer snag.
Then the current caught her along the
beam
An she whirled around and shot down
stream.
With the foam from her bow like cloud
O. steam.
AS fast as a red-tail stag.
He jammed her bow through the buckin'
tide
Till the painter floatcd free.
With blinded eyes and drippln' skin
lie fought for the race he had set to win
Like soldier fights, till the ice rolled in
An ground against her lee.
But he'd got her up to ropn' range
An we hauled her to the rail-
When he'd landed the last one safe and
Jake followed, an says as he looked
around:
"You fellers fetch out that jug you found,
I'm as dry as the Mormon Trail"
Well, stranger, that there is the yarn O.

The demand for free coinage of silve,

to mean cheap money in Missouri, Ar

denim the American because Of his
eagerness to make money, because he
accomplishes his objects in a decent
way" '"The laws of the United States
are somewhat elastic, and the Ameri-
can citizen goes the path laid out by
the law. But q mans word Is sacred.
Every man demands that his fellow
man weigh carefully what he prom
ises. The business man of the United
States knows no higher ambition than
the proper conduct of his business and
the realization of business success
through perseverance and well direct
ed work. He does not forgive or for-
get an abuse of commercial propriety,
and that gives him the consciousness
of strength Of character, for which he
has no equal The American business
man considers carefully and long be-
fore he enters q business undertaking.
But when once he has done so he Is
in it with heart and soul. and he may
be counted upon as an active co-labor-
er worthy of every confidence. This
description certainly will not fit every
case, Dul IL is typicui VI 'i'e So"'''~'
cial life as l saw it in circles which
were considered standard. People
speak wrongly of the nervousness pro-
duced by the race for wealth on the
other side. The contrary Is the fact.
One sees endless activity and cease
less industry, and always industry, but
the nerves of the Industrious ones are
of steel, and not to be shattered"
And this is true. There Is good
deal of fiction in the common talk or
the killing pace of modern life. No
doubt the pace Is swift, especially
when you dlssipate your energies and
take no thought OF tomorrow. But
there Is yet to be proof conclusive that
the average American of today does
not live as long and enjoy life as well
as did his grandfather; while as for
making comparisons with Europeans
Of similar station, one must remember
that what Is meat in some cases may
be poison in others. We work and we
play in accordance with our customs.
Neither would fit the leisurely Old
Worlder, but his ways would quite as
i'll fit the rushing, hustling Yankee.
1t is not surprising to know that Mr..
Pattison is not so hopeful now as he
was Immediately after his nomination
that he will have the distinguished
honor of serving third term as Cover
nor of Pennsylvania. Every day the
evidences multiply, and there is no
foundation whatever for the Democra-
tic hope of a bolt against the Republi-
can state ticket. The independents, or
insurgents, who supported Judge 4erkes
and Mr.. Coray last year are satisfied
with the nomination of Judge Penny
packer and will undoubtedly. with few
exceptions, support him. More than
that, a Democratic contingent Of con-
siderable proportions will not support
Mr.. Pattison.

the slightest heed to the protest
uttered by Governor Davis Of that
State on the subject. Mr.. Jones'
Democracy is not open to ques-
ton. His personal standing
among the national leaders of
both parties is as high as it ever
was. His defeat for reelection
signifies at most probably the
fckleness Of public favor, Had
Mr.. Bryan been elected president
two years ago, Mr.. Jones would
not only have been easily re-
elected to the Senate, but would
today be besieged for indorse-
ment by many of the men who
are ridiculing and badgering him.
Besides, Mr.. Jones may reply, if
he cares to notice the matter at
all, that at the same time he was
rejected by the people Of Arkan-
sas Gov. Davis was accepted for
a second term. And if that shows
anything it is that just at present
the people Of Arkansas are in a
