infantry, in the Philippine islands. The
letter was mailed at Cebu island, which
is about seven hundred miles south
of Manila, and had been written on
board the transport Sheriden in which
the regiment sailed from San Fran
cisco on April 2. BY peculiar coin
cidence Sergt. Jones was not given
the privilege of having birthday an
niversary this year, owing to the fact
that the date of his anniversary, April
%, the vessel crossed the 1S0th mer-
Tidian west and as a consequence ono
day was dropped from the calendar
Mr.. Jones wrote that he retired on
Thursday evening and arose the next
morning, which was Saturday, thus
skipping Friday, his birthday.

Evidences that carelessness in filling
in after excavating for water services
in front of the Conover property on
East Main street were noticeable this
morning when an express wagon, heav
lily loaded. broke thru the pavement,
leaving q hole about three feet wide, by
five feet long. Water was found stand
ing under the pavement and Superin-
tendent of Mains Danskin was immedi-
ately notified. Mr.. Dansliin thinks that
in placing Il new service in the store
room the earth was not sufficiently
tamped, and after gradually settling
was unable to stand any very heavy
weight. 1t is fortunate that no one
was hurt, or at any rate that some
horse did not get into the hole.

A PAIR OF DEUCES.

There's n little game called poker, which
the same is wicked, quite.
And playing in that little game l know Is
never right,
Yet, in my sinful, sinful way. I've some
times held hand,
And tried to hold Il nine-spOt high and
still look pleased and bland;
/ have met the race of buffers, and
know their little ways;
| have tried to look serenely on an un-
expected raise:
Eut at end I've always noticed. If the
hand was played with care,
THAT II little pair of deuces was better
than no pair.
This lifc's mighty poker game some
times / fancy still:
We take the cards the Dealer deals, and
play them at our Will.
And some of us are buffers: with words
Of cant and gush
We try to make the players think We
hold Il royal flush:
With nothing but q ninc-spot high we
puff and swell and blow,
And think we're playing shrewdly, for it
seems to work. YOU know,
Till some thoughtful. watcliful fellow
SAYS IL call YOU" World of care!
For his little pair of deuces is better than
no pair.
The man who wears twelve dollar hats on
Sevcn-dolar pay:
His bluff will work all right enough until
it's called some day.
The politician prating Of me own loved
native land
While his hands extended backward,
some day We'll see his hand.
The man who thinks effrontery is bound
to take the trick
Is sure to hear, Il call you,' and the
words will make him sick.
Somewhere, somehow. shall merit count
though it have naught to spare,
For IA little pair of deuces is better than
no pair.

that IA Democratic majority would tie
the presidents hands, umsettle business
confidence by threatening all kinds of
partisan interference with the admin
istration's wishes and work, and prove
hindrance ana Il detriment to national
progress and prosperity. His opinion
carries far more weight among Repub-
