threatens the financial condition of the
country than local poker game does that
of a community.-Anderson Bulletin
Governor Taylor was deliberately robbed

A child in Iowa is reported dead as the

| climbing around the walls OF the stomach.
| the story would have been more reason
able.-Lafayette Journal
In two years of American control the
death rate of Manila has declined from
! forty-six to twenty-five a thousand. This

when the time comes for advancement some

promotion. 1t will be remembered that
