SULLIVAN ON BANKRUPTs.

John L. Sullivan, the big bruiser and
devotee of the cup that intoxicates, who
has lately played the role of an actor in
New York, went into bankruptcy lately
and gave little dinner to celebrate his
release from debts. A cons pieuous part
of his costume was pink shirt with
two yawning holes in the bosom where
his diamonds have blazed.
81 put me lamps away" said John
when friend playfully stuck the end
of an umbrella thru one of the holes in
his shirt How could be a bankrupt
with me jewels on me?"
Before John and his guests wound up
the dinner the fighter made q little
speech on creditors and other things.
"Sure I'm bankrupt" he began.
"Who the h--ll says L amt? Where is
he? Amt thousands of prominent men
bankrupt? ] amt got no time to bother
with creditors. No prominent man has.

great country puts foul on 'em and

the especial guardian of some of the
South American nations. The expert
ence they are undergoing and the in
stability they manifest indicate the low
stage of the moral, governmental and
financial basis on which they rest at
present. A change of rulers thru revo-
luton seems a conspicuous feature with
some of them, and Reputation of obli-
cations another. Venezuela, about to
be chastised by Great Britain and Ger
many for ignoring their claims, has just
been brought to time at the last mo-
ment before punishment is inflicted.
Our government, while anxious to see
these matters honorably settled, does
not care to take part in the exercise of
power in that direction.
Another nation with whose difficult
ties we are more directly concerned
Colombia, has been giving us trouble
over the desired concessions for the

there is possibility that an agreement
may be reached as to this route before
our nation is compelled to turn to the

it should be the light of good conscience

DRAWBACKS TO sQuAR RA1sERs


EAlgona Republican,
Frank Nicou1in says he is having a
great demand upon him for squads
which he is not able to supply. He has
about 5000 pigeons, but the number of
squads he can raise is quite limited.
The birds are not in the best of health
this fall. They have disease called
the morning light" The theory is
that a. pair of pigeons will raise a pair
of SQUADS every month, but there are
squad raisers of all degrees of pro-
ficiency in reproduction, while some will
raise SQUAD in year. The squads of
the size Mr.. Nicoulin raises will sell for
$3.50 to 81 dozen when "a days old.
The squads that are quoted at SO and
81 dozen in the cities are much lager
birds. The expense of keeping 5000
birds is quite an item. Five bushels of
wheat are required per day, and he has
to alternate with corn and millet for
variety The care that has to be taken
is great tax, of course, but Mr.. Mic
oulin says he never enjoyed any work
like looking after his pigeons. The
pigeon is not a polygamist, like SO
many fowls, but a pair unite for life,
and they are never unfaithful to their
VOWS. When two eggs, never more nor
less, are laid the female bird sets. The
bird destined for the table of the cpl
curean never leaves It's nest till 1t is
removed for shipment. The old birds
bring the food for their little ones and
eject it from their stomachs into their
AT first sort of milk or pre-
digested aliment comes from the stom
achs of the parents. Later grains are
given the young ones for their own di-
gestion. The female bird is expected
to take her afternoons out, and the old
man stays right at home to look after
the babies.

:LO0KER-ON in IOWA:

Nevada. Dec. 1.--Who says the days
of Witchcraft are over? In Iowa there
is today one of our best surgeons and
physicians who cures warts by the
hoodoo plan. This doctor also has a
conscience. Poor people come to him
for medicine to remove their warts. He
tells them plainly he can operate on
them with electricity and cure them,
but the fee is 81. Now" says this good
doctor, Il have another plan that will
not cost you anything. Here, ] tie this
/ string around that wart, then | place
this empty capsule over the wart, now
| tie the string over the capsule. In a
| short time your wart will disappear"
/ And it does The above bundle of facts
| are gathered from the doctor himself,

In one of our Iowa towns there is a
| Catholic priest who takes an active in
terest in the everyday affairs of his
parishioners, particularly so in school
affairs. If there is anything on earth
that makes this good priest particularly
happy, it is to have all of the school
teachers in town members of his
church. Now. in this town, which has
a strong Catholic majority of citizens,
the school board is made up of two
Catholics and one Protestant. But, to
his credit, one of these Catholic school
board members has broad ideas con-
corning the appointment of the school
teachers. He insists that each denom-
ination in town is represented. The
world, the Protestant and Catholics all
had q school teacher to teach the young
idea how to shoot in right direction re-
ligiously. Now, it SO happened that the
worldly teacher got married and re-
signed SO there was a vacancy, and
here the good priest tried to get his
work in. He picked out a nice Catholic
young woman for the vacant place. He
got the consent of one of the board, the
other didn't care, and meeting our
Catholic school board man of positive
ideas began to labor with him. Argu-
ments pro and con We're hot and heavy.
The school director brought out all of
the fair claims for other denominations.
The priest got back at him with church
arguments. Finally the school director

him with official church discipline and

Minister WI, among other good
things in his goodbye speech, said that
the age of deception on the part of the
diplomat is gone. Freely interpreted
this means that the modern diplomat
is not sent abroad to lie for his country.
Perhaps large part of the generous

lister WI is held in this country is due
to his practice of this new order of
