heavens causing the lain to pour
down in torrents. All had cCme to a
crisis.
Then when the worst had passed,
the rain slac ed up, the thunder
pealed less loudly, the Tightening
dashed less frequently and the wind
as if tired calmed down to a gentle
breeze. The clouds parted, the great,
smiling face of the sun shown out
again and a beautiful, bright colored
rainbow was seen III the east. The
clouds sank slowly and silently into
the west and all was fresh and bright
again. The birds sang gaily in the
tree tops, the wind gently swayed the
branches and the little flowers lifted
again their heads which had been
beaten down by the torrents of rain
and smiled once more upon the fresh,
glad earth.

An Investigation Needed.

Mayor Parker presented another let
ter to the council this week in which
he makes some startling charges, and
compares the Land and River Com
pany with the Jesse James crowd. If
the mayors charges can be proven,
and we do not think our mayor would
make charges of this nature unless he
was positive of what he was saying,
then certainly the city has been de-
frauded of many thousands of dollars.
and proceedings should be taken to
make this concern pay their just share
of the city's expenses. If a poor
laboring man manages TO secure a
house for his wife and babies he is
compelled to pay tax on the same,
and if not paid his family soon are

A MidSummer'S Day,

The afternoon was drawing to q
close, but the rays of the sun were
still warm, as it was mid summer. The
day had been exceedingly hot, but
now a gentle breeze had rizen, bring
ing with it the fragrance Of the fields
nd that delicious GOODNESS which one
appreciates after a warm day. The
people were discussing the weather.
some declaring the weather was
warmer the preceding year, and
others that they had not had warmer
weather than now.
Under some large trees, which grew
on the bank of a large spring. that
gurgled over stones and through the
weeds, stood a number of COWS.
Though they were knee deep in the
cool water under the shady trees. the
flies found them out, and they were
lmpatiently stamping their feet, and
lazlly switching their tails around. to
keep the tormenting insects away. at
last they became restless and started
up the bank, as little boy came to
drive them home.
Lower and lower sank the sun until
1t disappeared in the horizon, and the
friendly night crept up, bringing cool
ness and rest after the long, sultry
day.

people sat tanning themselves or re-
