il will be a most unkind thing, from
the Democratic point of view, if the
Missouri Republicans nominate Circuit
Attorney Folk of ST. Louis for COVER
nor, as is now proposed. He Is a
Democrat. or at least was supposed to
be such, but his relentless prosecution
of the Democratic boodlers in Missouri
has made his party brethren in that
state entertain feelings for him which
do not look well in print. He has
made such a fine record that there has
even been talk of making him the
Democratic nominee for President in
1904. but it doesn't come from Missouri
Democrats.

Lazy Days.

Oh, June Is the LATEST month of the year,
When the generous blossoms invite to
good cheer,
And the perfumes that rise are so sweet
and 50 strong
That the hours sort o pause an go loafin'

With a smile an song.
They're jes' satisfied to go loafin'

The daylight that hurried in winter so
fast
Now idle around until seven or past,
And (such is the force of eXamplc), with

The Bath school girl who has not been
absent from school or late at her lessons
for the entire four years of her gram
mar school course has the qualities that
bring success in life. OF course her
record is partly due to good fortune in
escaping serious illness, but the chief
elements are faithfulness, industry and
ambition. Her record is not duplicated
by one pupil in u thousand.
Here is a cheerful weather prophecy.
A kcnnebunkport sea dog says we are
to have 81 days of the kind of weather
we have been having recently before
we get any real settled weather. There
| were 81 days of dry, hard weather, so
he says and the average is to be made
good by as many days of wet. That is
to say, by early August it will be safe
to go out doors without an umbrella or
overcOat.
That custom in the Auburn High

The arrival of the horselcSs fire en-

add not little to the feeling of public
security. And by the way, horseless
engines are no novelty in our cities, on,y
the former ones were propelled by man
power instead of steam. This machine,
which is one of the most complete prod
ucts of human ingenuity in that line
up to the present time, will add many
per cent to the efficiency of the Port
land department, and with it working
in conjunction with the fire boat and
the smaller engines, there will be little
fear of fire that the department cam
not handle.

ridiculous Injunction. but it was scarcely worth
remembering now when there was one who
cared to enforce 1t. Perhaps If 1 had had the
use of my limbs I might have thought it neces-
sary to go out Of the room or at least to turn
my back. AS it was might have shut my eyes,
but this did not occur to me. It was most
touching and beautiful to watch the innocent
rapt as of the two young lovers. There was no
time for words and it plain that they had
better language than any verbal one. A broken
sentence now and then was all they seemed to
need. The lads face was radiant. his eyes
burning, his whole frame quivering with excite
ment; and as for Winnie she seemed to be
literally drinking in great draughts of happi-

enough to retire for few moments to the other
end Of the room or outside Of the door, which

She put her slender little hand in mine.

am an old man, at least compared to you, and
cripple. I have an aunt who keeps house for
me. Would you like to make your home with

Ouray,- Colo. Dec. 30.-From a
member prominent in the councils
of the Ouray miners union it is
learned that a call is being prepar-
ed for a meeting of the San Juan
district union at Ouray at an early
date. Among other things to be con-
sidered is what is believed to be an
attempt of the mine owners and the
managers to abolish the eight hour
work day adopted by common con
sent in the San Juan district three
years ago, and return to the ten hour
day for men in the mines. 1t is now
claimed by members of the union
that no less than five properties in
Ouray county are being worked on
ten hour shifts, Camp Bird being
the latest mine to fall into line. The
situation at Telluride will also enter
into the deliberations of the meet
ing.

Ebert Hubbard to Wed.

East Aurora. N. Y. Dec. 31.-An
authoritative announcement in re-
gard to the wedding of Ebert Hub
bard, head of the Roycrofters, and
Miss Alice Moore. is u~nobtainable
here, but the impression prevails
that the marriage will be quietly
celebrated tomorrow as previously
intimated by Mr.. Hubbard. Since the
divorce granted to Mrs. Hubbard,
in the trial of which Miss Moore fig
ured as correspondent, Mr.. Hubbard
and Miss Moore have been together
constantly, and that their marriage
is scheduled for an early date. and
probably for tomorrow, is regarded
as a certainty.
