Always Take Grease, D.

While out for buggy ride last Sun
day evening, a young lady and gentle
man-we dare not breathe their names
had the misfortune of getting hot
box and locked wheel four miles out
OF town. Fortunately, or rather unfor-
tunately. another team was closely be.
hind, but having no axle grease, 1t be-
came necessary to leave all the occu-
pants at the scene OF the trouble while
one returned to Mr. Strandman's for
the necessary remedies. Meeting an
other couple enroute, heinformed them
OF the situation, aud the latter having
lighter rig, turned bac 4, got wrench
and some grease, went on TO the scene
OF misfortune, only to add humiliation
TO the discomfort OF the unfortunate
pair. 1t is now probably unnecessary
to impression upon the young gentle
man, before taking another girl for a
ride, the importar ce OF properly taking
care Of his buggy, and thea too, to AL
ways take a wrench and some grease
along, for we have always found them
to be extremely handy and convenient
things to have on such occasions.

THURSDAY EVENING. JUNE 4. 1909

Mrs. FANATHA WEST, of Indiana
mills has filed suit for divorce from her
husband. She declares that she and
her husband always lived happily to-
gether until a few years ago when he
protested religion at revival and has
made a nuisance Of himself ever since.
Whether or not Mrs. West has good
grounds for divorce will be decided by
a proper tribunal. The applicant, how
ever, has the sincere sympathy of many
who by force of circumstances are CON-
PEELED to live or associate with people
who make themselves unbearable by
assumptions Of superior piety, perfect
knowledge of things past, present or to
come and who make spiritual affairs
obnoxious to all with whom they come
in contact by their despOtism and radical
notions. 1t was an observation of a
good man that the greatest bigot is a
new convert, or fedgling IN
spiritual life. This assertion is abund-
antly corroborated by all who have I'M
fortunately had their lot cast with such
people. They are generally unsympathet-
ic, cruel in their judgments and in no
way lend a helping hand or encourage
ment TO fellow pilgrims on the road to
the celestial city.

To Check Contract Breaking.

Chicago, June 4.--Seven hundred
union men have found themselves
suspended from membership by labor
organizations for failing to live up to
agreements signed with their employers.
The international brotherhood of black
smiths and the teamsters are the or
CARNATIONS which have administered
this lesson. The brotherhood of black
smiths found its Chicago local guilty Of
insubordinatiOn in refusing to live up to
an agreement signed with the Chicago
Metal Trades Association, which was
broken by strike in sympathy with
the helpers who went out two weeks
ago. The teamsters' national union
deprived 300 of its st. Louis members of
their union cards for failure to obey the
dictates OF their officers to cease sup
porting the freight handlers in their
strike in that city and return to work..

annually enter into, the management
put out the fires, and the several hun
bred workers were unceremoniously

IT Is not the third term, but the
second one that ought to engage the at
tention of political philosophers. In the
convention that renominated President
Harrison the statistics of federal Office
holders who were delegates were read by
one of the opposing members. Presl-
dent Mckinley was keenly alive to the
chances of a denomination, and the con-
ditions that would favor it. President
Roosevelt has been hunting for delegates
to next years convention with the most
engaging candor ever since he reached
the White House. In this connection
the Philadelphia Record remarks; cal
most any President can force a renomi-
nation. 1t is serious thing for man
in active politics to quarrel with the
President of his OWE party.
