When the commission came to select a
governor he put on his old volunteer
uniform, FURNISHED up his Spanish SWORD
and pinned on his three medals. He saw
Taft clad In a white duck suit, an ex.
t%raordinary uecollete collar and a straw
hat. Some time afterwards a man of a
good deal of Importance visited that
province. and, as this old native had be

He wore white duck, a broad brimmed
straw hat, and instead of salu ing said

CITY COUNCIL.

Members of the Board of Mayor
and A dermen elect and old board
met last Tuesday night in the
council room.
: After passing a few compliment
tary bouquets back and forth, the
old board retired and members of
the new were sworn in. His high
ness, Esq. Sacra, administered the
oath.
THE election of officers came next
in order, the caucus nominees re-
ceiving the entire vote, as follows.
j.. w. Woosley, recorder and col
.lector; Henry Moffett, tax assessor;
70. N. Walker, treasurer, tor twelve
months; ]. S. Adams, city marshal,
for twelve months; Joe Mailing,
night policeman for twelve months;
Dave Yates, street overseer; Mr..
Carter appointed teamster; Mr..
Martin, appointed sexton.
Ihe officers were immediately
sworn in ready for duty.
Upon the opening of the new
board for business Mayor Walker
arose to say that he had intended
to present statement of figures,
showing the citys revenues aud Ii
abilities for number of years, but
had not done so for lack of an OPP
portunity. What he desired to en-
phasize more particularly was, in
his opinion, fact that municipal
taxes were much too high. He said
the city had no debt except that of
an overdraft and that he was une-
quivocallysin favor of reducing the
city tax. He further added that he
would be willing to say it this could
not be done he felt like he would
resign. To say the least, it was
his judgment that the Board would
not have done its duty if taxes were
not reduced
Mayor Walker announced his
committees as follows:

Finance Greer, Gardner an

their saddles with laughter.
What matter?' their chief shouted
to us. Heap scare?'
Then they came down and fratern-
lied with us. Some of them had
scalps at their belts that we're still
wet with blood. Then they told us
they had just had a glorious day.
'They were returning from a raid on
neighboring Comanche camp, and
had taken seven scalps, only losing
three of their own party. They felt
so good they built fire and made us
eat supper with them, but they couldn't
get over laughing at the scare they had
given us.

APPLE BOXES.

stored in some clean place and take
but little room. Now that Eastern
manufacturers are getting into the
apple box business we expect to see
the odd size mongrel boxes displaced
by something nearer uniform, though
it may take several seasons to learn
just what size and form are best
adapted to our needs. The form must
be governed by convenience in storage,
handling and shipment and the size
by the demand of the trade, which we
believe is best satisfied by a bushel or
little over. The chances at present
are that it will pay to hold the best
of the apples and box them for winter
shipment. 1t will never 60 to put in
feriOr apples in boxes. This is a new
package in most markets, and more
than one season may be required to
make buyers familiar with it. The
bulk" shipment Of fruit is rarely sat
isfactory in the long run. If a man
has a good lot of choice apples we
should advise him to try the box ship
ment. There may not be much in it
the first season, but this package is
sure to come into use, concludes Ru-
raj New Yorker in giving the foregoing
advice.

A Culinary Problem.

In educational college, near Chi
cago, the senior class recently decid-
ed to give an old-fashioned 'sociable''
for which the girls of the class should
provide the supper To two of them
was assigned the task of bringing
doughnuts of their own manufacture.
For several days they went about
with puckered foreheais, evidently
wrestling with some mighty problem.
Their study, which had been a haven
of peace, resounded through long
evenings with argument and expos
tulation.
At last, when their relations were
somewhat strained. they applied to a
court of arbitration to settle their diff
ferences. Mrs. Smith, wife of one of
the professors, was taken into their
confidence.
"Mrs. Smith," begged one of them.
won't you settle dispute for us? It's
about doughnuts, and l can't convince
Anna that I'm right. She thinks they
ought to be fried in milkv'
