Where James Pain Was.

A dear little boy whose winter home
is in the Oranges of New Jersey, and
whose summer home is at Glen Summit,
Pa, but whose identity shall not be fur,
ther disclosed, attended dame school
last winter, and on an occasion when
visitors were announced, took part in
the exercises in their honor. The ex.
ercises comprised recitations by the
brighter children, and among them this
dear little boy was called on. He re
cited in perfect good faith the following
which he had learned or caught iron
an indulgent nurse with semi-poetica
instinct:
Jane ate cake and Jane ate Jelly,
Jane went to bed with pain in her
Now, don't get excited,
Don't be misled,
For whatJane had was a pain in her head
When the youngster told OF this +
entirely surprised and somewhat shocked
parents they asked him;
"What did the teacher say?'
He replied: "She said nothing sh'
inst turned and looked out OF the win
dow. but the scholars and the visitor
wanted me to say it again. "-BrooklyI

and an abundant supply Of water to the
citizens, which can be done at a pront
at rates below what is charged now.
The wrong way is to continue 70 dliiy-
daily and depend on private corpora
tion to supply and operate this pupllc
utility without any assurance to the cit
liens that they will get an adequate sup
ply OF water or an effective service with
out periodical hold ups. A public util-
ity owned and operated by munlclpal-.
ity is usually operated with the object OF
giving the best and most efficient SER
vice at the lowest possible cost to the
consumer or patron. A public utility
operated by a private corporation Is u.s.
ually operated on the plan OF charging
the highest rate with the poorest service
possible with maintaining or keeping
their franchise; (the people - -
profits, dividends and official salaries
are the motive power with the private
corporation.
Private corporations are organized only.
for profit combination and monopoly Of
public utilities. The experience OF all
towns which have tried both systems
are now unanimously in favor OF munlc,,
ipal ownership of water works ana
lighting plants.
There will be no trouble in floating q
six per cent loan sufficient to put IN an
efficient water system which with agrav-
ity pressure can be operated very cheap
ly at an expense not to exceed the dli-
ference between what is now paid Tor
insurance at present rates and what TIE
rates will be with good and efficient
water system. 70 say nothing about
additional protection to property oil citl-
zens above what they get insurance on.
No iudicious or safe company Will insure
property for more than two-thlrds OF
its value, leaving the owner carry the
other third or half without insurance OF
protection.
There are many towns not as large q
progressive as Hood River that support
water works where they have to pump
their water into stand pipes or reservoirs
and are we'll satisfied with their invest
ments, while Hood River will save al
expense Of pumping machinery and rue
and labor to operate it.

ations cry and holler against excessive
taxation and job! job!! corruption II

with II. Ii. Bailey The marriage was
a happy one, and everything ran pleas
antly till the drum beat of war came,

her home. August 10, 1861, her hus-

the young wife waited to learn of the
fate of her soldier husband, not know

was finally exchanged and served bis

William ii. Perry was born in Ken
tuckY, December 20, 1885 He was
married lii Frankfort, KY, October s,
1857. He enlisted in the 30th Ken
lucky mounted infantry December ID,
1868, and was mustered out at Frank
fort, KY, April IS, 1865, having served
one wear and four months.
N His regiment served In the brigade
Commanded by General w. H. Hobson,
who since the war was elected COM
mander-in-ehie of the Grand Army of
the Republic. The first brush the reg
iment was in was with John Morgan,
when one battalion Of the Both Ken
lucky stood off his whole force ofrough
riders at the city of Lexington. In
this fight Perry's horse was shot and
fell upon him, dislocating his left
shoulder and breaking one of the small
bones. He was sent to the general hos
pital, where he remained but two
weeks and then reported for duty. His
regiment having left Lexington, Perry
was detailed on provost duty in that
city, and then to the commissary de.

Eastern Kentucky and West Virginia
The object Of the raid was to destroy
the salt works at Saltville, West Va
General Bufbridge was badly defeated
and forced to retreat. A month, late
he made another attempt and wa
more successful, this time destroying

with railroad iron and the Lynchburl
railroad was torn up for quite dis

Ter Good Roads and Good Schools.

Hood River, Jan. 10, 1903--Editor
Glacier: In every paper East and West
the cry goes up for good roads. Those
who do the most crying are the~YeEy
ones who do the least for the roads
Many do not know what good roads
are like because they meyer saw them.
Let us go to the poor little countries
north Of us. There we will find the
roads looking over the fences-not flat,
butrounding, with gravel tops; gravel
in piles ready to put on when needed;
ditches on each side deep enough to
drown a horse. Now comes point
where we are lost. There is no super
visor there; only q red post with big
white eyes, d black number, somuch
road for the owner of land to look after
Then there Is law to compel every
one to keep his part of the road in good
order or pay a heavy fine. In this
good and free country we have men
walking along the roads, shovel in
hand, and once in awhile they give a
jab, turning water from the wagon
track to some ones cabbage patch or
orchard, and then laugh at the good
job done. What a shame!
Here we are wearing out thousands
OBJECT of lumber besides nails on our
cross cuts and bitches that have to
cross our roads, which all meansmoney
lost, when few loads of rock and q
little lime would make bridge that
would last forever Do you see The
point? Here is another very dul
point: Every man wants the county
| to furnish road to his barn; and two
roads half mile apart running in the
same direction. Just SO long as this i
allowed we will not have good roads.
j. II. Ackerman, state superintend
ent of public instruction, is trying hare
to get consolidation of rural school
and to dispense with the smaller coun
try schools; to build a large schoo
house centrally located and have tn
district hire one or moreslarge carryall
to 90 around and collect the childrei
in time for school and deliver them a
ktheir homes after school. Just thinl
| what d saving that would make in hil
ing teachers and Keeping up slnal
schools? BY Mr.. Ackerman's way tn
service would be much more salts

MAY INVEST orr OF STATE.

Rome Tribune: The endowment of
Emory college, amounting to about
$500. 900, may be invested in another
state. Owing to the fact that the
Georgia Legislature has repeatedly de-
clined to exempt endowments to COL
leges from taxation, the authorities of
the college, it is said, favor the in
Vestment of the fund in state where
such endoWments are exempt. If the
endowment fund should be invested in
another state, it would mean that the
college would have to be rechartered
in that state, and the directors elected
at the capital of the state from which
the charter was granted. The Metho-
dists in charge of Emory have been
discussing the matter for some time,
ii is said.

Cherokee Advance: The shipments

10 estimate the extent, and value of
the alberta peach crop for this year,
so far as this immediate section of
the state is concerned. Orchards
within five miles of Rome will ship a
total of thirty cars of first quality
peaches, Other orchards within a rad
ius of fifteen miles, outside the five
miles first mentioned will ship ten
cars more. From Rome to Raccoon,
Ga, there will be not less than sixty
cars shipped. This makes a total Of
one hundred cars from this immediate
section, which is, in all probability
lower than the real figures in view Of
the fact that there are many small
orchards not counted in this estimate.
These cars average $1100 each, which
shows the value of the peach crop in
this immediate section to be $4,000
